Last Saturday afternoon the place was near full at 3 PM-on a sunny day at that. Heard the owner say that their recent Wednesday nite was as crowded as a Friday. Our thin crust pizza with artichokes and red peppers was fabulous. Pretty soon it will be so hard to get into that place that take out will be the only option. Good addition to our neighborhood.

Went back for dinner with a couple of friends last Saturday.  Place was half full as early as we went.  Had the small order of wings which were delicious and as much as a normal person could eat.  Nice fresh salad and a couple of Lampposts. (Yea, another Bold City location!)

Everything came out smoothly and John, our server, was helpful and knowledgeable.  He warned me about how big the wings were and steered me to a sauce they were trying out that wasn't on the menu yet.
When all else fails hug the dog.

I was there on a Wedesday 3/30 and they were so busy they ran out of clean plates! Food was excelent though and they eventually got some washed and out. I can't wait to go back. My wife had the lobster mac & cheese and I had the fried calzone both were awesome.
