    Took over Papa's Subs behind Smithfield BBQ. Good people and good stuff.
    It's right up there with La Piazza.
    Basically take out but they do have a few tables.

    I like em, but they need a lil more dough in their pizza... Had em last night. Had em a few weeks ago and it was perfect with the little bit more dough.

    Yup. And they do have good pizza. At least the 1st go around was really good. Better than a few others here in the area.

    I had no idea this place was open the past 7 months till the wife saw the sign. We ordered 2 large pizzas last night and during my trip home with em I couldn't wait to open the box to devour. We will be going back to order more. I want to try the sub selections and such. So much better than Papa's junk he was trying to sell to the crowd here.

    If you like Jalapeno poppers you gotta try their Island Poppers, they are my favorite. Good pizza and calzones as well.

    We went there last nite for dinner because I read this post and needed to try something new!! The food was delicious!!! Only problem was, (we ordered when we got there so we could see what they had), but it took over 1/2 hour to make meatball hero, garlic knots, and Italian Poppers!!! So my suggestion is to order over the phone next time so it is ready when we get there.!!! Will definitely go back, very good food :)

    3Olives Pizza opened up in the Exxon station on Cleveland School Rd. Very good...I like em better than Island. Both have good taste, I just prefer 3 Olives now.

    We love 3 Olives too. Used to drive to Clayton, so glad they opened up closer. Island is good just prefer 3 Olives and it's easier to get in and out of. The traffic on 42 just gets more and more difficult to navigate.

    Website isn't the greatest, from what I can tell, its a family business. Very nice people though. I hope they stay around for a while. Here is the website so you can see the menu.

    They pretty well sum it up on their FaceBook page in 2 separate posts. One in early May that says they are looking to sell due to health reasons. The second later in May that says they are closing and looking to sell asap because of a surgery coming up.

    I wish them the best on the surgery but their pizza was awful. We ordered one time, it seemed like the teenager answering the phone was high when I called in and the one that delivered the pizza was clueless. I got the BBQ chicken pizza and it was just plain bad. I take Papa Johns over what they were serving any day. That being said, I'll stick with La Bella or La Piazza for my money.

    Yes there is. It's a good change of pace from meat lovers, veggie, pepperoni and mushroom, etc. Maybe check out a Mellow Mushroom sometime and broaden your horizons.
