This fast food pizzeria is probably the kind of place I shouldn't even bother bloging about, much less putting it on my restaurant review page. It's basically a place serving slices of re-heated pizza or pasta with a generic tomato sauce, for nearby office workers in a hurry. It's definitely not the sort of place you'd make a point of heading towards, but if you, like us, are in the way to Children's Fairyland on Lake Merrit, and wait to the last moment to commit to a place to go eat, you may very well end up there.

Mika and I both got cheese slices ($3 each). They were thick and large, a little bland but nothing that couldn't be helped with some parmessan cheese. They reminded me of Blondie's or Fatslice's pizza. And at $1.60 ($2.25 for pepperoni, $2.50 for combos) it was a steal. The spaghetti at $4.25 was less of one, and I thought it was too generic (but what else can you expect?) but the kids ate it (not up, though).

The restaurant has a bathroom in a nearby building, which can be a hassle if you are alone with two kids.

In all, it's a good place to stop for a quick/cheap bite.
