Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.

5 stars for the wings and the fried mushrooms. (I challenge you to find better fried shrooms in Mt. P) Honestly I think it's the best in the area. My husband loved the pizza. I'm confused by Peter W. who apparently signed up to yelp to review only one place and thinks that chicken wings are not deep fried? We're in America buddy. I will be trying more, and for certain a repeat customer for the wings.

we had a groupon and stoped by to get some beer french fries,wings and mozarella balls.very nice place nice atmosphere food was delicious.i dont like when i go to restaurants and the french fries are bad.here the fries were awesome.and we will definetly come back.

Crave is so good! I always get thin crust with cilantro and extra cheese. They don't have many beer choices but they have blue moon. Its a nice sit down restaurant inside.

Ok so here it is. We have lived a few blocks away for a few years and now about to move (not because of the pizza). So here's my non-biased opinion. The pizza is great, it always has been. We go back and forth with this pizza and a local competitor. The owner is a great and personable guy. Nice place to get a pizza and beer and really the only place around to do that. They are just about to open a bar which looks really nice and I hope they do well. Here's my advice. The beer is not cold. COLD COLD COLD my friend. That is the key. Turn down the fridge a few notches. If you want to attract family's you need to turn up the ambiance. Turn down the lights play the italian card. When you get the bar up an running offer free pizza during happy hour. COLD beer. Look at your pricing and service (ASK EMERSON'S) Add kids games so the kids have something to do. Look at Photo's or brunswick zone. Parents want to hang there hat bro and let the kids loose.... Good luck

I ordered $100+ of pizza for my daughters birthday party down the street at the Y and the driver got lost and it arrived more than 30 min late! Minimal apology and no discount for the cold pizza and cranky 4 yr olds. Poor customer service.

This is a great place to grab a bite to eat. I come here all the time for lunch with my business partner Jesse. Anyways I think a very overlooked item on the menu is the crave burger. Honestly, you would not believe how hard it is to find a decent burger these days. Sure, theres five guys and portillos, but if you want a luxury burger with thick juicy meat and amazing bacon, you'll have to come to Crave. The pizza here is also very good especially the shrimp and garlic! My wife Skylar in particular will go crazy when I bring that home for dinner. Positive also comes with negatives(not a lot though) -First off, the location is very gloomy and unappealing in my opinion. -Secondly, the prices are slightly high... -Lastly, their wings. So far I have tried two of their sauces for their wings. Both were very subpar. I had honey barbecue and Parmesan Garlic. Right off the bat,the honey bbq wings were drenched in the sauce. I felt like they put way too much sauce and the sauce really overpowered the wings itself. If they lessened the amount of sauce I think it would taste much better. Onto the next flavor, the parmesan garlic had no taste whatsoever. It just tasted like a fried chicken wing without any salt. The solution? Just add salt or other seasonings! I think the parmasean garlic would be incredible if it had the proper seasoning. Putting a ton of parmesan and little to no garlic does not make it parmesan garlic either. All in all I definitely think you should try this place out if your looking for some good not good for your health food!

CravePizza often enters my home on one of two occasions....1) When hubs and I can't fathom putting dinner together. Even egg sandwiches are none too appealing and/or 2) When I crave (see what I did there?) a classic Hawaiian pie and a handful of not-good-for me appetizers. CravePizza isn't anything fancy - but it's on GrubHub and it's reliable. I often order the ham and pineapple pie, which is often delivered to my door in less than an hour, piping hot. The crust is crispy, the cheese salty - just what you're looking for in a basic pizza. Additionally, the "cheeseballs" (basically fried cheese in spherical shapes) are addicting. Pop those suckers in a pool of marinara and I'm a happy camper. I'm sure I'll be craving Crave again in no time...

good pizza, good wings and good service! 5 stars for their awesome waitress, whose name i do not remember =/ We tried the thin crust and buffalo and BBQ wings. Definitely go for the buffalo, to me, buffalo is spicy but the flavor is so good that the heat is worth it. Our waitress was very nice and attentive but not TOO attentive where it becomes annoying. She also told us about their wing specials on tuesday .35 cents i believe? I think i would definitely come back for that wing special! Also, groupon is currently offering $10 for $20 worth of food here. When i bought it last night, it said the offer expires in one day! so hurry!
(5)Kimsy S.
I enjoyed it here. I like the simple, yet fun decor of beer-pun plaques and photos of Old Chicago. We ordered garlic bread and truffle parm fries as appetizers. The garlic bread was very good, crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. The fries were just okay. The fries themselves were great, but the truffle/parm mixture didn't make them any more special. And we also ordered a thin crust pepperoni, which they serve tavern-style. The pizza was pretty good. Lots of flavor, not too filling or greasy, and nice crunch with the crust. The service was great, also. The staff was very patient with our questions as first-time customers and offered helpful suggestions. I would definitely return, as I've heard great things about the wings and tater tots. :-)

Done with this place - scam artists and rude about it. Two times been in there - first time with a coupon that had a package price deal where they charged me a higher price when I picked up the food and said it was printed wrong - second time just tonight ordered a package deal right from their own website and they charged me more and would not honor the price on their own website saying it needs to be updated!! How is that the customers problem. The girl at the register was very rude about it and just said have a nice night sarcastically - good luck staying in business!!
(1)Timothy S.
Love this place! I moved to Arlington Heights close to 3 years ago and have tried nearly all of the pizza places in the Arlington Heights, Palatine and Mt. Prospect area and this is my favorite. We have tried both thin crust and deep dish and loved them both. Additionally, their hot wings are fantastic! We usually get carry out however, we have dined in a few times and have always had a good experience with friendly and courteous service. Will continue to be a regular at Crave Pizza! Keep up the good work Crave!

seriously the worst bbq pizza ever. bbq sauce leached with the cheese turning it pink. you couldn't tell it was bbq pizza. This was my first and only time ordering from them. called to complain and they basically didn't care that I had a bad experience and that I would never order from them again. must have lots of money if they can afford to alienate customers
(1)Michael K.
I wouldn't normally pair wine and wings together but they are delicious here! On Tuesday's they offer .35 cent wings with any order of a pizza. Definitely worth it. Go out and give it a try! If you're hesitant, you can find these guys on restaurant.com or Groupon quite often.
(4)Daniel M.
Ordered pizza from here... Greasy and cheap cheese to say the least... Not too tasty, they use cheap ingredients with no flavor, this isn't really food it's more substance... Probably not going back, the service was good at least.
(2)Cami F.
Love Crave Pizza! The food is great, the decor and ambiance is good for a date or a group, and the staff friendly and helpful. I went with my bf and another couple. We ordered the cheese puffs and calamari for appetizers. Both were very good. The calamari is different than at other places, looks almost like mini onion rings, they're crunchy, which I liked. We then ordered a thin crust and a deep dish pizza to get the best of both worlds. The crust was delicious on both and overall both pizzas were very tasty. I ordered a turkey burger as I'm trying to 'be good' although I tasted both pizzas and I was pleasantly surprised. It's easy to get a dry, tasteless patty but this burger was juicy and tasted great. I would recommend it to anyone who wants an alternative to pizza when visiting Crave. Overall we had a very positive experience and will return to Crave.
(4)Samantha T.
Good pizza, good price. Got thin crust and liked it. The middle was not soggy, but could have been just a bit more crisp. Will order from here again.
(3)Chris P.
Happy to have a new place in town. The thin crust was good, with a sweet sauce and tasty cheese. We'll order again and looking forward to trying other menu items.
(4)Chris K.
Still a new place, I think it's going to be successful if they keep it up. Better then other local pizza places. Here's what we got: -Thin sausage, green pepper, mushroom. I didn't have any but they said it was "Very good" -CraveBurger: Great, I really enjoyed it. Get it with grilled onions! I got mine without cheese, u don't need the cheese -Garlic Bread: It's got a kick of hot spice! Try it! The owner does not care about Yelp reviews so please voice your concerns to him if you have any concerns.
(4)Karl M.
I really hate to give the place two stars because I really want them to do good. They make a decent burger and put it on a nice pretzel roll with fresh tomato and lettuce but that's about it. You can add bacon or an egg or even mushrooms but it really is pretty simple- nothing extraordinary but pretty good. The wings are done well. We tried the sweet chili wings. Cooked to a perfectly crispy skin and then drenched in what appears to be Trader Joe's Chili sauce... a mildly spicy sweet sauce. Can't complain. The pulled pork sammie was a big let down. The description sounded nice: pulled pork with apples and fennel... what comes to mind is a lot of juicy pork with sweet apples and fennel... what came was a lot of chunks of pork with PICKLED apples... they added an interesting crunch but the vinegar-y taste was off from what you would expect from an apple. It was all sadly mounded onto a toasted french roll. Meh. The pork was tender and had a good taste but the apples were not a great addition... maybe the description should have read, "...pickled apples..." The fries that come with the sandwiches are crispy and lightly seasoned- very nice. The biggest reason they don't get more stars is that they don't have any real veggies to complement the meal... even the salads are simply lettuce and not much else of substance.The sides are all fried. A lot of fried and/or fatty foods with no balance which is fine for a fast food joint but in a sit-down establishment I want to nourish my family, not kill them before they are thirty. I've been here twice and ordered pizza delivery twice. The pizza's are ok but they aren't that special. The service is fine but each time I've been in, the manager seems preoccupied with the laptop instead of being warm and friendly to his patrons. When we left he popped his head up and gave us an audible thanks for coming but it doesn't seem genuine... there seems to be a real disconnect. The menu is very simple, lacking substantial veggies, and the food isn't spectacular. Grease, salt, sugar. I'd love to see them do well but I can't feed my family this food on any regular basis and there are way more places that either put more effort into the menu or the service... or both. The cashier is very friendly and takes good care to keep water filled and clear the dirty plates. I have an MSG-type headache now (three hours later) and am feeling a bit queazy... come to think of it, this is how we felt the last time we ate there. Yuck. Sorry. Never again for our family.
(2)Ryan C.
Pizza is excellent! Easily one of the best pizzas in chicagoland. All our friends and family that have tried their pizza loves it.
(5)Katie K.
Really like the thin crust pizza - crust is perfect and never soggy in the middle, even though we usually pick it up and eat at home. The ingredients are fresh and pizza sauce very flavorful. Gave it 4 of 5 as the price is couple dollars more than other places - so not the cheapest but worth the price.
(4)Cupcake S.
YUM! I love the thin crust pizza here. Even my dad likes it and he is sooo picky when it comes to thin crust pizza. The sauce is tasty and the crust is thin and crispy. My only issue is I wish they'd put more cheese on the pizza--I like it really cheesy. The past 2 times I ordered extra cheese on our pizzas and they still weren't too cheesy! It's my new local pizza place of choice!

I went into CravePizza with a NowGroupon - $5 for $10 worth of food and drink. Not a bad deal. My plan was to take the food home because it was a long day and I just wanted to relax and eat at my house but I guess Groupon Now deals are for dine-in only. Okay...not a problem and certainly not any issues with CravePizza on that. Cons: * When I walked in the place smelled really bad of a musty, dirty dishrag like someone had just wiped down the tables with um...a musty, dirty dishrag. Yikes. Kind of unappetizing. * There was a guy hanging around, wandering from the dining room to the kitchen. At one point he was playing a video game on his smart phone with the volume all the way up. At another point he wandered into the open kitchen are and started a conversation with the waitress that contained the phrase "I wanted to choke the shit out of her." Turned out, the guy was a driver waiting for a carry-out call. Classy. * The final "con" I have is that I went in there for pizza. I'm one person and I did not want to buy a whole pizza. Splashed all over their menu is "slices for lunch only" so...what could I do? I ordered a burger. Only after I was 3/4 of the way through the burger and someone else walked in and ordered a slice did I know I could have had pizza all along. PROS: Food was good. Except for the weird seasonings under my cheddar cheese on the burger - it was cooked exactly the way I requested. Decor - amazing local artists' artwork on the wall. I wanted to buy it all! Looked great in there. Nice tables and chairs and the area where they stored the dishware was VERY clean and neat. The Owner - greeted everyone, make sure everyone was taken care of, very pleasant and nice guy, talked to all the regulars. You can tell he really wants people to really like his restaurant and for his business to be successful. The waitress - very helpful. Very sweet!! I'd like to try the pizza since that's what they are known for so I will go back again. The food was really good.
(3)John A.
Had the Crave Special pizza! It was great! Best thin crust pizza in the area. The sandwiches are great also!
(5)Mary B.
The pizza always tastes great! It's never burned and the cheese is always nice and gooey! Service is spot on, everyone there is really friendly and knows the product. The regular fries are ok, nothing special. The only complaints I have is that they forget to give me parmesan cheese for my pizza every time and they charge a $2.00 delivery fee. C'mon guys, delivery is 80% of your business!!!!
(3)Dodd V.
Great new pizza and wing place in Mt. Prospect! I was sad to see the previous place go out of business at this location but at least they were replaced by another great place to eat. Very good pizza. I am more of a thin crust pizza kind of guy and this is some of the best in the area. Great crust, fantastic toppings, good quality pizza. Their wings are also very good too. I saw one negative review here earlier about the wings. I would ask that you give them another try. I thought they were very good, plenty of meat on each wing with great sauces to choose from. I am looking forward to trying other menu items when time allows. I am definitely going to be a regular here!
(4)Jay K.
3 stars for the thin pizza. It was okay, not great, not horrible, just okay like the 3 star rating says. It just didn't have much flavor. 4 stars for the burger. My wife loved it. It was done perfectly as ordered and on a great bun. 1 star for the wings....where was the sauce? They fry up some wings and lay them on a plate then pour some sauce on 'em! It forces you to scrape the sauce off of the plate to fully coat the wing. 50 cents for blue cheese and no carrots or celery. LAME! The service was 4 stars so I'm using my math skills along with my gut feeling to give it 3 stars overall. If I'm in the area again and I want pizza I'm going to the Ye Olde Town Inn around the corner, but I'll go back for the burger. Don't even talk to me about the wings :)

We've been visiting restaurants in this building for a while. We've watched them come and go, primarily because it's a well hidden spot for a restaurant. Situated next to the Starbucks on Northwest Highway, just west of downtown Mount Prospect, it is set just far enough off the highway to be missed. Whenever one closes in this building, we always await the next attempt for another owner to try their hand at being successful because the odd thing is every restaurant that's been in this building have been very good. The owners are always personable, as are the wait staff. The food is always tasty and the prices reasonable. This is also true for Crave Pizza. When we stopped in after 9 on a Friday, we were surprised at how empty it was. Our server told us we came in at the tail end of the rush, when tables were an hour wait. I'm glad we did because I wasn't in the mood to wait. I ordered their stuffed pizza and it was very good. On a scale of 1 to 5 with 1 being Pizza Hut and 5 being Giordano's, I'd give Crave Pizza a 4 or 4.5. Check it out. It's worth the trip.
(4)Chris S.
I go for the deep dish and it's excellent - both crust and toppings. Friends go for the thin crust and they say it's a winner as well. Deliveries are always fast and they've never gotten an order wrong.
(4)Peter C.
I really dont like to give small businesses bad reviews because I know how hard they work but at the same time it frustrates me when a business makes foolish mistakes. These guys need some help. Driving by I see their giant sign out front advertising their lunch specials. 4 bucks for a slice and pop, sounds good. I walk in and there is no where to order and no one is there to greet me even though employees are in sight. Finally, a young women seats me. I told her I want the lunch special slice/pop deal, she looks a bit puzzled. She then says oh yeah okay. My slice arrives covered with oily veggies they just added on top of a cheese slice they made earlier. I know selling slices is not easy unless you have the volume but come-on! If you cant do it don't! Pizza is pizza, so I ate it with no complaint. Then the bill arrives and they charged me 6 bucks plus tax for this thing. Okay now I'm getting pissed. I point this out to the server when she comes to take my card and her response "I'm new". Fair enough. She returns and the bill is the same. mmmmmmm okay. I walk outside to re-read the sign, thinking I missed some fine print like only weekends or something but no I was right, 4 bucks for a slice and pop it reads in giant letters. So I return in and ask for the owner. She stares and types on the computer for a bit thinking she was correcting the bill and then says "no, he's not here" I stare at her a bit puzzled. After a few seconds I tell her she needs to tell the owners to change the sign if the prices are not true. Of course shes thinking in her head "yeah sure like I care about helping these two scum bag owners". Below average pizza with below average service. How can a business in today's market run like this? Ever wonder why people are not coming in and filling your tables? You are in a service business. Anyone can make a pizza but the service is what will bring me back. Train your staff and sell real slices.

I've had so much better.

CravePizza is the type of place where you have to try the pizza! I came w my family to check out this new place in Mt Prospect. The staff is pleasant and friendly. The pizza has a slightly sweet sauce that we loved. The crust is thin and buttery. The pepperoni was a+ I will only say the place is a bit hot w the open kitchen being so close to the seating area. We asked to be seated outside and that helped a lot.
(4)Suzanne C.
Today was my first time here. pizza was delicious and I really love good pizza. service was super. We were also told about the daily specials. I will definitely return to try the burgers and wings.
(5)Justin R.
As an update, CravePizza has become one of our first choices for pizza. Both the thin crust and deep dish are excellent. The service continues to be fantastic.
(5)Matt H.
Stopped in for a slice at lunch. Reheated, doughy, flavorless. The place had a great look, but did not deliver.
(2)Steve G.
Just visited tonight. Extremely disappointing. First - ordered thin crust pizzas. Took 30 minutes to get them. Second - service not attentive. We had two water spills and no one came to help. Third - food was disappointing. BBQ Chicken pizza had an unpleasant sauce and the tiniest pieces of overly processed chicken. Regular pizza had cheese that was too tough and sausage that was not very good. They are cutting corners and not using high quality ingredients. Got a peek into the kitchen - burger patties were frozen discs of processed meat. We will not be going back.
(1)Jeff W.
Great little pizza place. Thin crust pizza and antipasto salad were both excellent. I don't usually order pepperoni but we got it for the kids, and it was some of the best I've ever had. They have a couple beers on draft a few more in bottles and good wine specials. Good service too. I recommend it.
(5)Stan H.
Pizza is ok (3 out of 5 maybe) but I don't care for the owner of this place. I think that his plan is to turn this restaurant into a chain. That's perfectly fine, but, part of that making that happen is to learn how to interact with the customers and get them to want to come back. My general feeling (and the feelings of others I have talked to) is that he is fairly indifferent to his customers and is simply biding his time until he can franchise etc. You get the sense that he feels that he is above the work that he is performing. For me, that turns this place from one that I might visit from time to time to one that I just don't have a lot of interest in.
(2)Jay W.
We had their pizza a couple of times now and it's good. The sauce is a bit sweet for my wife, but I don't find it sweet. Not like Papa John's - which is awful. This is more like pizzeria style, not kiddie-birthday-at-the-jungle-gym-place stuff or Papa John's & Domino's crap. It's thin, and doesn't go far. That's my biggest complaint. So over-order or you'll have hungry mouths when it's gone. Your savings on other pies in the area are skewed, you don't get as much in a pizza as you do elsewhere. But, I'd have it again. I hope they make it.
(4)Adam S.
This place rocks. I found this place on Grub hub and have never looked back. The wings are awesome, the pizza is just as great. Tried the salad and they are good but could have used just a bit more lettuce. Try this place out its a grat place to get a delivery from. Oh and if the food is not as great as I think the delivery drivers are the nicest drivers that I have every delt with, the ask you things like hows is your night, how has your week or weekend been. COmmon this is awesome stuff here
(4)Thomas S.
Very good thin crust pizza - fresh ingredients and good crust. The burgers are great as well. Very good pricing as well for the high quality. Rafael & Junior are doing a great job starting out and we are looking forward to when they start breakfast. One request I have is that they get online ordering. Other than that - if you are looking for a casual place in MP to grab a burger, wings or pizza or just want it delivered, this is our new go-to place.
(5)Steve D.
If the hours say open to 11 they should be open until 11. 10:20 is not 11. This is not rocket science. Learn to read a clock.
(1)Juan S.
I went with my wife and 4 children and enjoyed the atmosphere as well as the food!! Great pizza and awesome calamari & wings.... We will definitely be back. Serrano Family.
(5)Bonny S.
We recently visited CravePizza on a Tuesday night, and enjoyed their wings. Tuesdays is 25cent wing night. We had the Parmesan and Garlic, Teriyaki and Buffalo. I have to say we enjoyed them, they were crispy, sauce was drizzled over the top with enough on the tray you could roll them in the extra sauce if you needed them soaked and they were not greasy. We then ordered an extra large thin crust, pepperoni, garlic, spinach, tomato and fresh basil pizza and requested extra well done (boils on top, cheese browned). And They accomplished this (nothing worse than barely melted cheese. Pizza was crispy, had wonderful flavor. We had ordered a bottle of Chianti. Good but didn't break the bank, Yeah! Will definitely go back!
(4)Sarah Y.
I tried this place right after they first opened up. I loved the pasta place that was here before, so when I saw a new restaurant open up, I had to give it a try. The pizza was pretty good, but my chicken was way undecooked in caesar salad. I have not gone back since, but I may one day.
(3)Judi H.
Okay, I love, love, love pizza. I'm always looking for the next good place. I heard about this joint and decided to give them a try. I stopped by about 11:45 on a weekday to get a slice and check them out. The place was completely empty aside from 3 employees. This was the first clue of trouble to come. That near lunch time in a busy area there should have been some diners. I ordered a slice of cheese. Now I understand that for slices you are not going to get a fresh made piece of pizza. Still, I expect it to be hot. Someone got a slice of cheese for me and stuck it in the oven. It was not in very long when it was handed to me. I thought the price was a bit high for one lousy slice. When I ate it a few minutes later the crust was thick and tasteless, cheese coagulated and the sauce was meh. With so may pizza joints around I would save your money. If you head up the road a bit Mariano's Fresh Market actually does a far better job of making fresh pizza for a great price.
(2)Steve W.
Just did the bar side the other night!! Great space and good selection of beers on tap. We had burgers and sandwiches. Ingredients were fresh, fries were crispy and tasty. The menu needs to expand a little, but otherwise, glad to finally see this side open for business. We'll be making this a regular spot.
(5)Laura C.
We came in tonight to play trivia and enjoy a $3 burger. This place is all kinds of WRONG. A young man in tattered jeans. U know frayed by his shoes only, greeted me. I asked about trivia and he replied 7pm. Clearly he was not a server but he proceeded to try and serve me. He asked me what I would like to drink. I saw no menu nor did he bring one so I asked for a menu. I asked for a draft beer list. He had to get it. Some lady was bar tending with a malaise attitude. Something's so WRONG here. I won't tell u what I encountered when I went to the restroom. Suffice it to say it was a health violation. I would like to commend kasha. Sweet girl. She made everything sunnier and deserves massive tips. I feel dirty and must go home to shower after seeing that bathroom.
(2)Andy T.
Crave did the right thing and made up for the late delivery. With this improved service and the quality of food I change my rating to the better. Good job crave.
(4)Ted P.
Delivery, Again they forgot half my order. Not to mention they were a half our late. Decent food but poor service.
(1)Allison S.
Used to be pretty good pizza and burgers. Something must have happened recently though. Every time we have ordered pizza or burgers from here, the food has been pretty yucky and has made me ill. Even the fries are soggy and old. Ew! What happened, Crave? I have been a very loyal customer for over two years, and I'm definitely at the point where I cannot order from you anymore.
(1)Ruth G.
This place was pretty good, but it definitely has a lot of competition with other Chicagoland pizza locations. We ordered the "stuff pizza." One person assumed it was a stuffed crust pizza, so she was disappointed to find out it was essentially just a Chicago style deep dish. Moving on from that... The cheese was incredible! Like melty amazing. They're working on making it a sports bar too, so when the renovations are done I'm sure this will be a much better environment.
(4)Lisa W.
Excellent weekly go-to place for pizza and burgers. I order from my phone and pick up at least 2x a week. I'm a big fan of their thin-crust pizza! The wings are okay, but they are not the reason this place is in business. I have dined-in a few times and service is a bit slower than what I'm used to in the area, but I don't mind ordering out from here. They are expanding the restaurant, so I look forward to seeing positive improvements that might get me to find in more in the future.

Another "Groupon Made Me Do It" place... I've been driving by here for quite sometime and always thought that I should try the place. Well, a deal on Groupon put it over the top. Visited on a snowy April Monday; the interior is kind of small right now - 14 four-tops turned into 8 tables when merged as they were the night I was there. Crave is expanding next door right now - hopefully that will help them organize a little better as quite honestly, it's appearance is one of the most disheveled looking ones I've seen in a restaurant. I ordered a 14" thin crust sausage pizza and two Blue Moon's. Though the first beer came out a tad slow due to a carry out order that the server was messing with, overall service was fine. Roxana was attentive, pleasant and seemed genuinely interested in her guests and service. My rating is really about 3.5 stars - her effort is what made me round up to four instead of down to three. The pizza had an unsuspecting look to it - frankly the outer crust almost gave it a frozen pizza look as there was a kind of uniformity that most "pizza place pizza's" don't have. But, the flavor was really pretty good - I think it was the sausage that did it. A little oregano in the table caddy helped too. I look forward to trying this place again when their expanded area is open. Maybe on Monday too, when burgers are $3 - they looked great on that pretzel bun.

This place used to be good. I am done with them. A while back I had ordered two burgers like normal, except when it came one burger was grossly rare. We called up and were told we had a free burger coming to us, we didn't really want one after that horribly pink burger. We just ordered and they put us on hold for 15 minutes and then proceeded to mess up our order. They really used to be fantastic but they have recently messed up orders, undercooked/ overcooked food and it's just ridiculous at this point. I'm not sure what happened but I'm never ordering from here again. Mugs is the best in the area.

We brought our 2 grown kids and their friends and ordered garlic bread for one of the appetizers and it was served burnt. Such a cheap item to mAke that when they saw that happened, it would have been in their best interest to pop a new batch in the oven and serve that, right pizza guy? Had to eat around the burn. Pizza was good. Server was sweet, too.

Picked up a pizza it was terrible. The cheese tastes sour and the crust tastes like cardboard! Will not order from them again!

roommate ordered bbq chicken pizza. another pizza place (now gone) near Crave used to do BBQ pizza pretty well, so I went along with her choice. After a quick delivery, I took one bite and was like "oh no. no." the "bbq sauce" was thousand-island-dressing-colored (was it a salad dressing they used? eww!), but *did* smell vaguely of bbq sauce. Wasn't like any other bbq sauce I ever had, though. roommate called them and asked them to make it right. they offerered *nothing* in return (not even a free cheese pizza that we could pick up) except to say that they always made this pizza in this way and no one else complained about it. however, the dog absolutely loved it. so, if you're a dog, place your order with them today!
