“Absolutely love the new location and rebuild (even though it's not exactly new anymore, lol). The staff is friendly. My only problem occurred earlier this week and I just found out about it. I bought a pizza for my Aunt and Mom earlier this week. I said something to Mom because she never said how the pizza was. She said it was horrible - burnt on top and the crust on the bottom wasn't done. This was the first pizza I purchased from this location and was surprised by this. I guess I'll continue to get my pizzas in Belle.”
