Sick Town Hall Restaurant & Pub — Restaurant in Lake Orion

Good Very Deep-Dish Pizza

We ate here on Wednesday, 8/18, about 7:30 pm. after watching a free concert at Children’s Park. There is plenty of parking in the lots across the street or along the street if you’re lucky. Out front a guitarist played and sang at one end of the tables along the sidewalk. There is another set back area with outside seating as well. It was hot so we chose to sit inside the bar area next to the front windows but we noticed there is also outdoor seating on the second level. Drew, our server, brought us the drink and dinner menus, then big glasses of water.

We ordered drinks: Donna had a Wine Spritzer and I had a Heineken NA. We ordered two dishes to share: the family sized Arugula & Beet Salad which includes roasted beets, fresh arugula, feta cheese, toasted pecans and dried cranberries and tossed with a balsamic vinaigrette; the Small Artesian Pizza (4 Pieces). The arugula was fresh, and the feta, pecans and cranberries were a good fruity-salty combination. The pizza came caramelized onion, roasted red pepper, artichoke hearts, feta, house cheese blend and red sauce. The pizza is very deep-dish Detroit style so we only ate one piece each. It was very good and not doughy. The crust was crispy and the toppings were a delicious mixture. The table we chose turned out to be a bit small to for both a large salad and the pizza but we moved the pizza tray to the window sill while we ate. We boxed up the leftover salad and pizza after our meal.

The 313 Pizza Bar interior looks modern, and has a clean and airy feel. The noise level is low to moderate so no problem holding conversations. The restrooms were clean too. Overall, the food was very good with service to match. The bill total...

Attended a babyshower for my cousin here. The food was great, the venue was great, everything was very good. The only thing I have a complaint of is when you have a venue for 50-60 people you need more than 1 person working it. I watched the bartender become the server become the janitor, become the hostess, become the dish busser, and was the only person able to assist our whole party. I felt bad for her, there was a tip jar and our family definitely gave her a decent amount of money, however when a guest is looking for an extra chair and she says we don't have anymore it was embarrassing my aunt had to stand the entire time at the party while we all sat. I felt so bad after spending thousands at the venue. As a business owner myself, I asked the girl working how come there's no help with you, to my surprise she told me she doesn't like to work with other employees, that it isn't a help to her to teach someone knew what to do and how to do it and that she's able to take care of everything (which myself personally is thr same way, however in this type of setting you need help. Mind you, I never saw her wash her hands the entire time nor use gloves when serving drinks and such). Sometimes in business we can't have our workers dictate who runs the event, even if she didn't work well with others or thought she didn't need help for that party- it was unsettling watching her sweat and run around trying to assist the 50 people who wanted drinks and food and had questions about tables and chairs and cleaning up trash and such. Appropriately, you should have 2 to 3 people working at that event....

My mom and I tried to order a large pizza ($17) with half pepperoni and half cheese but our waitress had no idea what we meant by that and said that they didn’t do that and that we could just get two small cheese and pepperoni pizza ($10) despite the fact that it’s cheaper for us to get a large. Our pizza comes and theres no sauce on it (????????) like at all. Nowhere to be seen. We asked the waitress and she was confused why there wasn’t sauce on it. She went and asked the cooks, came back and said that they’re “new to working in the food industry” have y’all never made or eaten a pizza before? She offered to take our pizzas back and have them place sauce on top or give us two cups of it. The pizza was great, even when I had to dip my pizza in sauce. Next came our bill. In the menu it was stated that any extra toppings would be $2 on a custom pizza. We both had gotten the small which is $10. Our bill came back with one $10 (just cheese) and the other $14 (?????) we asked our waitress and she said that it was a double pepperoni pizza, despite my mom just asking for a regular pepperoni pizza. Our waitress said that’s how they bill it and gave the impression she couldn’t fix it to be $12.

In the end she gave us a discount on our meal due to the price discrepancies and the incorrect making of our pizza. Atmosphere was nice, restaurant was half full, pizza came out in a reasonable amount of time. Not sure if I’d come back but it may be worth...
