My husband and I shared a pizza, my son got the chicken strips. My friends got a pizza as well. Both my husband and I as well as friends had diarrhea approximately 45 mins after eating the pizza, my son was fine. Not a great day on the beach when you re constantly running to the toilet. If you re going, id avoid the pizza!!
We found the staff to be a bit rude as well. I guess because all their neighbors are closed (COVID-19) they feel like they have an upper hand?
Anyway, I ll be avoiding in the future.

In response to the owner:

What day exactly did you sell 100 pizzas? Must ve been everyday as I did not specify a day?

In regards to the shelter in place order
My family and I live within Santa Cruz. We absolutely love this town and support local businesses. We find this to be imperative and what makes this town so very special.

As far as helping your neighbors, that s very gracious of you. However, regards to signage to notify public of restaurants becoming open for to go orders a simple OPEN on a sheet of paper placed on the window would work. There is a plethora of foot traffic among the boardwalk. I hope some of them do open back up as well as we hate to see local businesses suffering during these times. Your business is a shining example that indeed, they have the opportunity to stay extremely busy as well!

I m sure I speak for all of Santa Cruz when I say we are all so grateful for your help and aid in these critical times! We truly do need to stick together and support ALL of our struggling local businesses!

Perhaps when we are feeling brave again we will stop by for another pizza. Everyone has an off day right, chefs and cooks too ;)
