  11/12/2010

The two best things about this place are the deals and the hours. They're open really late every night, and even later on Fridays and Saturdays. They have Interact on delivery and it's with a minimum purchase. They always deliver within 40 minutes,…More »

We got a delivery menu in the mail for 3 for 1 Pizza (or 341 Pizza), with the slogan "The Lowest Price with the Best Quality". Too bad that wasn't true.

They have specials that are 3 for 1 or 2 for 1, and half off a single pizza. We ordered the Meat…More »

Ahora seems like one of those little hole-in-the-wall kind of places that you easily walk by without paying much attention. I'd never heard of it until a friend suggested we meet there. I opened the door and walked down the stairs to the restaurant.…More »
