I have been ordering pizza at Alba's for years. Nothing extraordinary but an okay pizza. Last time I ordered a pizza, I was very insulted by the person in the other end of the phone. First, he put me on hold and did not apologize for doing so, instead, he shouts "pick up or delivery?".

Learn your manners!!!!I will never order your pizza again even if it...

I had the Penne Alla Vodka. It was just as delicious as the pizza!

They said no it should be delivered in 10 minutes. I waited a whole hour before the pizza was actually delivered. The pizza was still good but it was kind of cold. So if you are planning on ordering here I suggest you pick...
