I give them a 5 for the vibe, but a 2 for the food and service. I was there with my family on a casual evening. The restaurant was less than 1/2 full, maybe around 1/3 full. I ordered a basic, pepperoni pizza. When it arrived at my table, the crust was barely a light tan color, as in, very undercooked. JDs advises as a "Woodfire Grill," it's even in their name. ANYONE who has even eaten at a woodfire pizza place knows that a pizza, if cooked correctly on a woodfired grill, comes out bubbly, with a browned, (sometimes even partially charred), crust. I love woodfired pizza! However, my crust was the exact some color as pre-cooked dough. And while the cheese was mostly melted, it wasn't the bubbly, melted mass that it should have been. To add insult to injury, the under-cooked pizza had a 2+" crust all the way around. I had ordered a 12" pizza, and while the crust was 12", the sauce, cheese, and pepperoni only covered about 8" in the center (max). That means an awful lot of crust, and little actual pizza. I essentially paid $18 (plus tip), for an 8", under-cooked pizza. When I asked the waitress to please stick the pizza back in the oven for a few more minutes, she developed an attitude that surprised everyone at the table. She did take the pizza back to the kitchen, but instead of returning with it 4-5 minutes later, it was a full 15+ minutes before my pizza arrived back on my table. Sort of a "malicious compliance" thing I guess.
The pizza looked great, as it should have been originally, but the flavor.....If there was a trophy for the MOST BLAND pizza, then JDs wins the prize! Even with pepperoni! How do you get all your flavors to negate each other so there is ZERO flavor profile?
Lastly, and this is to inform those folks out there who like a cold beer with their pizza. I ordered a Stella which is supposed to be served chilled. Mine was the temp of a Guinness Stout. I asked our waitress to please bring me a glass of ice (I didn't even tell her what it was for, I just wanted to get a chilled glass). She brought me a glass that had just come out of the dishwasher. It was much warmer than room temp and much of the ice had melted by the time she got to our table. Malicious compliance once again?
I can forgive the staff for this bad experience, everyone has bad days. I just wish that they wouldn't take it out on customers. We were on vacation and in a great mood. We weren't being "Karens." Wait staff know that that original pizza should not have left the kitchen under-cooked. And they know that when people ask for a glass of ice, you don't serve it in 100+ degree glass. Were we disappointed? yes. Will we try them again hoping that this experience was an...

Kitrino Bennett Local Guide · 77 reviews · 89 photos 2 days ago Not at all disability friendly, in any sense! My husband, some relatives, and I came by to have dinner, and were treated terribly by a waiter due to my service dog! After waiting for around fifteen minutes in line, the waiter came down and rudely told us we couldn’t enter because of my service dog. When my husband and I attempted to explain the ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) the waiter was dismissive and disinterested and offered us the “accommodation” of allowing us to order takeout or setting up a table outside of the property under a dark, dingy stairwell near some open canister ashtrays (the huge kind you see on city street corners) and trash cans. Segregation is NOT reasonable accommodation, plus the area we were offered to have a fold up table moved to was gross and hardly a pleasant, sanitary place to enjoy dinner by any means! In spite of our first mistake in coming here at all going so poorly, we decided that as we were hungry and our relatives tired from just arriving in town, we would order takeout. Our order was relatively small and easy, but we waited nearly 35 minutes after being told 15, and watched as people who had gotten there after us got their orders first. When we finally got our food, it was cold. Not worth the time, energy, or money! I wish we’d simply gone somewhere else. On top of all of this, I genuinely don’t see how this building is up to code for accessibility, besides that maybe it’s not counted because it’s in a historic area. How would someone with a wheelchair get up the steep flight of stairs to the only entrance? Honestly, the treatment we received was sad and clearly showed this place was not committed to treating all of their customers decently, and I certainly will be recommending against wasting your money...
