Always great, try the sesame crusted pie !

First time having their pizza! Picked up a pizza to share with a friend who lives in the area for lunch . delicious! Love the thin crust!, sauce is great and just the right cheese!nLoved it!

On this our 2nd order we encountered yet another fail by Ippolito. The first time we ordered 1 large pizza pie, and was told it would take about 1 hour for delivery. The order came and the pizza was actually cold. For clarity, it was cold not warm or hot.nnWe decided to try again since the reviews were good. When I called and actually shared my cold pizza experience with the man on the phone. He sincerely apologized and tried to explain because we ordered on a Friday night originally, it's such a busy night that the pizza may get delivered cold. That should have been my clue to not place our order again; but this time with his assurances we ordered 2 large pies AND paper plates. To understand why that's important is to share that the house we ordered the pizza to is in the process of being completely packed up and emptied for a long distance move. We have no kitchenware!nnWhen the pizza came we told the driver after tipping that the plates were not here. She said, oh, I'll go get them and be right back.nDo you think she ever came back? You are correct! She didn't. 1 star is generous at this point and even though we are moving want to share our experience so you can decide for yourselves on ordering from Ippolito in the future.nnIt may seem like a small petty and insignificant detail but when the pizza isn't cheap and other options exist, service is everything. Ippolito failed in service 2 out of 2 times.

Visiting from out of town and we are so happy we tried this place. Great staff wonderful food!
