Great pizza. Love the look and feel of the place. Not sure if they sold more pizza's in house or out the door? Either way I'll be back when in the area.

Awesome Pizza! Nothing fancy, but simply the best. I love how they use scissors to slice the pizza. Oh yeah, you can't leave without a Big Ed's shirt.

One of my favorite pizza places. Now taking credit/debit cards. But leave the checkbook at home no checks accepted.

You pretty much *have* to go here if you haven't been, because you won't know what good pizza is until you do.
