And did you heathens who want abombinations for toppings on your pizza get your way? I'm not really sure BR deserves a pizza place like Mama Della's really but I want to be able to get a decent pie when I am in town.

Fair game on the OT because of the show and it being a BR happening.

I posted this in last weeks Mama Dellas thread, but it is likely more suitable here. I wanted to like the place. I could even get passed a cranky owner, as I love Pokey. Part of it.

quote:

I liked it before, but only went a couple times. I have been wanting to go again, so we did recently. We went a couple wed nights ago after church. They were pretty busy, so food took a long time - IMO. We ordered 1 pizza and an order of meatballs. Meatballs were delivered in 15 min, but the pizza took over an hour. Barry obviously is the only person allowed in the kitchen, and when its busy - you need to be prepared to wait. We arrived at 6:45 and got our pizza at 8. I understand being short-staffed and having a busy evening. No big deal. I thought the food was pretty good.

One thing that really peaked my attention while there.... Was a couple who walked in at 7:55. They mentioned they were from out of town and wanted to know what time they closed. Barry looked up and said we close at 8, used to stay open later but we werent ever busy, so now we close at 8. The couple asked if they could be served since it was before 8, and Barry said he could make them something "To-Go." The couple obviously didnt want this, so they said thank you but we will find somewhere we can sit. I looked at my wife in disbelief. He should have been doing cartwheels that folks are comin in his place to eat now, and serving everyone until he locks the door. Unacceptable. Totally understand why he has struggled with business, and likely lost me as a customer. Big whoop, I know.

Not sure the "makeover" helped too much. They're usually dead most nights of the week and including some weekends when I drive past it. Also, they're closed for 2 weeks. Owner has a sign on the door, family related health issue.
