Q: Took a couple of friends there recently. It was a weekend afternoon so we didn't face what I hear is the usual crush of people.

PROs:
- One of my friends was visiting from Italy and tells me that the pizza at The Porch is the closest he's had to northern Italian pizza EVER in the US. I guess that's a good thing if you're looking for authentic Italian pizza. I enjoyed the pizza; thin, crispy crust and NOT overloaded with toppings.
- The sandwich and salad I had was fresh and crisp.
- The service was okay; friendly and prompt but the server did disappear and not check back after we had our entrees.

CONs:
- Out of several menu items on both visits, but that could be cost of serving fresh food.

I'll be back. It's good to have a comfortable place like The Porch so close by.

A: 3 stars

Q: Its is your typical Pizza Hut pizza. This location is a carry out/delivery only. The carry out deals are great, amd since this is close to home, we take advantage of those. I found that the delivery drivers havr no personality; they have forgotten to deliver things I've ordered like soda or my side of bread sticks, amd I never get my ranch or blue cheese when they deliver wings. Overall..wings are good, pizza is typical, and they have good deals.

A: 3 stars

Q: There is nothing like authentic New York pizza, and this is the closet representation to what real New York Pizza tastes like. Eating a slice of their cheese pizza reminds me of a summer day touring Manhattan. The customer service was good, not superior, but average. Since it was my brother's birthday, he got a free dessert and he ordered New York's Finest Cookie 'N Cream.....that is to die for!! It was a large Chocolate Chip Cookie (that was still warm) with two scoops of vanilla ice cream withe chocolate and carmel syrup drizzled over the entire thing. Yum!! Overall my experience was good and would recommend this place for amazing pizza and a taste of what the big apple is like.
