"This was the most disgusting chicken finger sub I 've ever had. The main problem was the overwhelming amount of mayo on it. The second picture shows the amount I scooped off with a spoon while trying to eat it. The roll was soaked and mushy, and the sub was falling apart as globs of mayo fell out of it. The first picture shows the second half that I just couldn 't eat, both sides of the roll loaded with mayo. I called to explain and talked to a manager named Joe. When I was done describing the problem, all he said was, Okay. I asked if that was it and Joe proceeded to tell me that he was upset that I trash-talked his employee for making the sub poorly and that she was new, only on the job 2 days, and she doesn 't know how to make subs yet. Why the is she making subs then, Joe? Who the is training these people? How does anyone, this girl included, not know how much mayo is a reasonable amount of mayo? It was like a sub made by a person who never ate a sub or sandwich before in their life and thought, Ah, this looks like a good amount of mayo, as they scooped it on over and over. Joe told me he had a bad day today and this was just making it worse and he didn 't even offer a refund until I asked for one. He was crazy standoffish and never sincerely apologized for the bad experience. I figure, he 's probably got a crush on the new girl and even though she makes subs worse than a chimpanzee could, he 's still going to try to use his manager flex to hook up with her. The dude was so butt-hurt on the phone call, something has to be up between him and her. He took it very personal. So, the food was terrible, and the manager response, even worse. If you like the food here, make sure this girl doesn 't make your sub. If you have a complaint, be careful how you express it to Joe, he 's very sensitive. If you 're thinking about trying John 's, do yourself a favor and go elsewhere. You 're probably going to get food made by ignorant people who don 't know how to make good food or handle complaints."

"To start, this Italian restaurant is super cute as you can see by the photos. There is plenty of seating whether you want to sit on the enclosed heated patio, high top by the bar, or low seating throughout.When you walk in, the wood fire oven is visible and really cool to watch them create some tasty pizzas.The service was prompt and super friendly. They are attentive but not overbearing, which I appreciate.My friend and got the calamari to start for an appetizer. Skip this. The calamari was extremely rubbery and tough. The sauce tasted like I was eating a whole lemon. It did not go well with the calamari. This was quite disappointing.For our main entrées, we went with the Balsamic chicken salad, Prosciutto and arugula wood fire pizza, and lasagna.The salad was absolutely delicious. The strawberries were fresh, pecans balanced out the sweetness, and the avocado gave hints of creaminess. Their lemon vinaigrette dressing paired perfectly with all of the ingredients. The wood fired pizza was cooked perfectly and the prosciutto was so tasty! Fresh mozzarella on top of this delicious wood fire pizza with the perfect sauce and crust. Last but not least, the lasagna! The lasagna was my favorite! The sauce had some surprising heat to it, but I really enjoyed it. It was also a nice portion. The pasta itself tasted homemade and authentic. Definitely reccomend this dish!Overall, a great Italian spot that services delicious food. I can't wait to return and try more on their menu!"
