I WOULDN'T STAND IN LINE FOR BLACK SOOT ON THE BOTTOM OF MY PIE

Well, to all you pizza fans that enjoy standing outside in a line for alleged world class pizza........go ahead. I would go elsewhere.



As an outoftowner and pizza lover - it was shocking to wipe my mouth of BLACK SOOT - more likely black burnt dough particles from the ancient pizza oven. I thought it was slightly disturbing to eat.



SERVICE is crap. Well that word explains the 12 year old who took my togo order. Aftering waiting for a table for one outside, I decided to see if there was a bar to sit at.......well there is a bar, no stools and you have to sit at a table to be served a beer. The young lady taking my order was less than polite, taking my order with the least bit of interest in helping this newcomer. I wanted the sausage - bacon - salami - pepperoni - on my pizza. The pizza I waited on for over 25 minutes came only with sausage!!!



I did not send it back because I needed to continue living my life instead of waisting it away waiting for BLACK SOOT PIZZA.



Surely the others around Frank's would have pizza in a more timely manner.

pizza was burnt, waitress is overworked

My expectations were set really high - I'm used to NY pizza - this pizza came burnt and tough - there was one waitress to a huge dining area and she was just overworked. I was dissatisfied. Sorry!

why eat imitation, when you can get the original?

This is where Pizza was invented in 1926. The product

has not been improved upon since. Imitations are widely

available world-wide. Why have the imitation when the

original is available?

The Best!!!

This is an addicting pizza. The smell alone is phenomenal. When I'm dieting, I can't go near the place. Favorites are white clam, fresh tomato in the summer, chicken and peppers. Believe it, I like pies built without tomato or mozzarella, just toppings with pecorino romano.
