The Cove New York Style Pizzeria — Restaurant in College Township

Was staying at the Hampton 2 minutes away for work so we thought we'd try it out since it's close to the hotel. I ordered the cheesesteak clazone, and while I was there picking it up I seen they had pastries at the counter. The raspberry coffee cake looked really good so I got a piece of that as well. The food didn't take long to prepare, which was about the only good thing about the whole experience. By the time we got back to the hotel (which is about 2 minutes away from the restaurant) my calzone was a greasy, soggy blob. I only ate a little bit of the bread from around the edge of it because the rest of it was soggy and falling apart whenever I went to pick it up. The menu for the restaurant states "we make our calzonez how they make them in italy". I've never been to Italy or had an authentic calzone, but I can assure you, that isn't how they make them in Italy. I sat the calzone aside and decided to give the coffee cake a try because at least it looked good. Once again I was mistaken. It was as hard as a rock. I couldn't put a fork or a knife through it, I had to pick it up and break in into pieces with my hands. The taste wasn't bad, but it was more stale than week old bread. Worst coffee cake I've ever had. I'm pretty sure at least that had been sitting in the display case on the counter for quite a while. This is definitely the last time I'll be wasting money at this place. If you want good pizza/pizza like food you're better off getting Dominoes or Papa John's. I don't know why I expected so much more from a restaurant that's crammed in to the back side of a vape shop, so I guess the joke is on me. I highly recommend going anywhere else if you're in the area. I would have given it 1 star, but the lady at the counter was nice and the food was done quick, so that's gotta count for...

Cost: to be honest, they're fair but I personally don't enjoy handing over 10 dollars for a wrap or 20 for a pizza. I'll grab little Caesar's if I want pizza... however, you definitely get what you pay for.

Quality: I've found that the ingredients used are not only fresh but also abundant. A friend tried to get me to eat "we are hungry" buffalo wrap but I have to admit, after eating it I found myself wishing it was from the cove.

People: as it happens, I work regularly right next to these guys... I have an opportunity to see things regular customers might not. From the delivery drivers, to the cooks, to the cashiers... I've met nothing but great people. Often going out of their way to help.

All in all: I recommend the cove... Stop in if you can and meet them. I'm confident you'll find this...

Great food as they get from US Foods. Loved the pizza ordered there several times. The lady that took my order accidentally messed up the order. No big deal as I worked in food myself it happens. When I called to get it fixed they did not want to do anything about it. I ordered two large pepperoni pizzas and had got cheese instead. Instead of doing the right thing and replacing both pizzas she was ignorant with me on the phone and said she could only replace one. Then she put a gentleman on the phone I explained I had ordered pepperoni not cheese and for a little more sauce. He said well if you didn't like the pizza why are you ordering again? Needless to say pizza was never fixed. I will never buy anything from them again. Very poor customer service. Taking my...
