bpits. with all the hype surrounding the man vs food coverage you can expect a wait while getting your pizza. i went on 01/30/2009 and the wait was an hour. we decided to order and come back for a pick up. overall, the staff was great. considering the number of people trying to cram into the small dining room they were calm and polite. i don't think they anticipated the tv program having as big of an impact as it did. while we were in line to place our order, there were a few tables attempting the carnivore challenge. it is hard not to get caught up in the excitement. there are people standing around the tables watching and taking pictures. it is more of an event than anything else. if you are looking for a nice quiet place to take a date this is not the place. i am hoping they take over one of the store next to them or look for a larger local. i definetly think the pizza and atmosphere make the wait worth while.
on a scale of 1 to 10 (10 being the best) i would give the pizza an 8. the sauce was light and had a great flavor. i am not a fan of heavy pizza sauce. the cheese was nice as well. not rubbery like most chain places. it reminded me of the pizza i would eat under the el in philly. other reviews i have read have knocked the pizza for sparse toppings and not being "real ny pizza." i did not find that the case. we had half plain and half pepperoni. there was a decent amount of pepperoni, but not too much where it takes away from the other flavors. i have never had "real ny pizza." if i were looking too i would go to ny. i am from philly and cannot find a decent cheese steak anywhere except philly. on the same note, i don't go in think i will. i went into big pie in the sky looking for decent pizza close to home and i found it.
i am going back tonight for a second try. i will update this review to discuss how the service has picked up to meet the high demand since man vs food stopped in.
