Gillio's Pizza — Restaurant in Shawneetown

I ordered an Italian sub and got a ham and cheese on a sub roll with 2 pieces of ham, melted cheese, pizza sauce, a few sprinkles of sausage for the pizza topping. I asked for everything on it except jalapnos. I paid 56 dollars for that. And a bunch of people came in after and got their food before us.
