I went into Grampa's Pizzeria really, really wanting to LOVE it and came out with feelings of it being just ok. I love the interior, the ambiance and the thoughtful lighting & decoration. The bar is unique & fun with an industrial-looking tile back splash & vintage gold mirrors hanging off it. The Edison light bulbs in fixtures along the wall with no shades were great & continued the vintage theme. We arrived at 5:45 so it was fairly quiet. As it got busier the noise levels were pretty significant. The tables are in close quarters so I was glad to be leaving as things were getting really busy and much louder.\n\nI started with a small plate of the brussel sprouts & bacon - great flavor & texture with just the right amount of oil served in a tiny cast iron pan. There was no salt or pepper on the table and I didn't ask for it, but in hindsight, I would have enjoyed a bit of both.\n\nI chose the basic pie with sausage. I really enjoyed the cracker thin crust with just the right amount of crunch. I didn't enjoy the sauce - it was too spicy for me & more acidic than most. I also wished there was just a bit more cheese. The sausage had great texture and flavor. My mom had a pizza with pesto instead of tomato sauce and I liked that so much I'll probably go with that the next time I'm there.\n\nI had a couple bites of my friend's sticky ginger cake. It was very tasty! The cake was light and flavorful. It was topped with a big pillow of homemade whipped cream that was just perfect. I would highly recommend trying that.\n\nWe had asked our server at the start to please separate our checks. He said he would, but he just brought the one, made some excuse we couldn't hear over the din and walked away. We were a bit frustrated so when he came back later, we asked him again to please separate them out. He said of course and came back with separate checks with apologies that he'd gotten so busy and forgot to do what we'd initially asked him to do.\n\nSo all was well. Overall, we had a really nice time & enjoyed the food. I will likely go back again sometime, but I can't ignore that it did fall a bit short of my expectations.
