First time eating at Grumpy’s. I was impressed. 6 out of 7 of us really liked our meal. The one that was less impressed didn’t ask the right question about sauce when she ordered her meal. Our server, Lily, was off the chain. She offered to replace the entree with absolutely anything else. Lily also knew the menu extremely well and was very attentive and fun. I had the lasagna; it was very good. The larger portion with a side salad was plenty enough food for two meals for me. I also snagged some key lime pie for the road. It too was very good. The restaurant was nice enough and was clean, which is hugely important. The real winner for me was the amazing service and the food was good and reasonably priced. Will be trying the pizza next time. I only wish that restaurants that have the name “pizza” above the door actually offered anchovies as an option. Alas, I am in the minority on this one it seems. =]

This place has really great pizza that has that authentic oven baked flavor in the crust. Its hard to describe, that crisp and yeasty yet light flavor. I love how the smell fills my car on the way home. The thin crust is crispy and firm under the weight of the toppings which extend almost to the edge with just enough of a crust that you can hold the slice without driving your thumb into the marinara. It also reheats very nicely, which is a necessary qualifier of a good quality pizza. I haven't been able to order any lately because of a dental issue. The crust is not chewy, but it's just slightly tough enough and normally that is generally a good thing as long as you have a solid, functioning set of natural teeth. Looking forward to returning, just thinking about the baking pizza smell is making me hungry.

Food was excellent, the pizza crust has a good consistency and flavor to it. It was a little hard to get the slices to separate and it was not cut evenly, but if you're not getting it to share that's not a huge concern. The sandwiches are quite good as well, though a little small. The "extra meat" portion is definitely worth it, but my husband was still very hungry after eating his. Service was friendly and the food was hot when they brought it out. My biggest complaint would be that they kept sitting new customers around us, so if you have social anxiety it may be better to call in an order for pickup.
