Holy Jeez, Robbie T's
After all the doggone reviews, we finally decided to take a chance, bite the bullet, brave the traffic through construction on the interstate to go visit Robbie T's Pizza in Jamesville from Liverpool. We tried to order on the phone ahead of time, and couldn't get through on the phone. So there was a bit of trepidation, as we were concerned from some other reviews that he may already have run out of pizza dough. We got down there at approximately 10 minutes till 1:00 PM, and he was working prep and the oven by himself. I placed an order for a calzone with pepperoni, and a Cheeseburger pizza. Robbie apologized and said that there might be an extended wait, but he would " take care of me".
The man is a Master of Understatement, lol.
25 minutes later he told me that my order was ready. There were a couple of regulars sitting at a table, and gave me a good natured warning to be prepared to be amazed. The cheeseburger pizza was awesome. It's strained the sides of the box, and was liberally sprinkled with hamburger meat, and dill pickles. I swear by the FoodNetwork Gods, it tasted just like a smash burger! I'm a big guy, eating a half of a large pizza at a single sitting is no big deal for me. I managed one slice of this, and I was done, lol
Now, about that whole calzone thing... Everybody here has shown pics and said "it's as long as my arm" Well, trust but verify.. you can see by the tape measure in the photo, that the calzone measures 19 inches or so from tip to tip. It's packed full to bursting with mozzarella and/or ricotta cheese, and a ton of pepperoni (That's how I ordered it). Between the two boxes, it weighed about as much as a small child, lol. AND tasted amazing. Total cost for both items into less than 40 bucks, And it could easily have fed 10 people.
So, hype? Heck no, FACT! He's the real thing, old school and all. Now, if we could just bribe him to move a bit farther north in the county so the drive wasn't...
Read moreRobbie T's is phenomenal!!!!!!! We were in the area celebrating our 15-year anniversary - some delightful local teens (cashiers at the Pompey Mall convenience store) recommended this place, and it did not disappoint! First of all, the customer service is spectacular - Robbie T and his team are mind-blowingly friendly, welcoming, and enthusiastic. Never have I had so much fun ordering food! 😂 The pizza is absolutely delicious - very generous with toppings, which we loved. I also ordered some a-MAZ-inggg wings - I was having trouble deciding which sauce to get, and Robbie suggested the best possible solution - mix the Medium Buffalo sauce half/half with the Garlic sauce - they were THE BOMB!!! (crispy and extra saucy) Probably the best wings I've ever had. They were fantastic hot, and equally tasty leftover for breakfast the next day. (that's how I roll) Also got a salad - because, vegetables - it was huge and yummy and came with plenty of dressing. Robbie also made some wonderful suggestions for cool local hikes - waterfalls and such - we checked out most of them, and they were genuinely great. We loved this restaurant SO MUCH we ended up returning two more times during the duration of our week-long vacation - we basically ate nothing but pizza for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, because #youonlyliveonce and it was just so dang good - and now that we're home, the only downside is that nothing we eat tastes quite right, because it isn't Robbie Ts pizza. 😂 Sorry I forgot to take pics of the food, but we were too busy chomping it down. Can't recommend this place highly enough - eleven...
Read moreChalk another amazing review for this amazing place. It would be an understatement to call the employees here friendly, because in this age of limited contact and colder people, someone who stops their busy work in the kitchen merely to wish you a nice day on your way out the door is simply first class people. They must be,the parade of people who went in and out were all like first name basis. A model small business that's getting desperately harder to find. Not sure what else I can say about the food that hasn't been said,wings were perfectly made,not too crispy which for me is a good thing, amazing sauce, which incidentally is something else,like a standard wing sauce yet with a distinct yet not unpleasant black pepper edge to it. The calzone is all people say it is, including very huge and delicious. Finally,and I know this is a long winded review but lemme tell you, a big family is hard to feed with today's prices. So when a calzone feeds 4 of the 5 of us with some left over for next days lunch, it's a blessing. Barely 30 bucks for a missile sized calzone and 10 wings that are better cold when eaten later than most places are when eaten fresh. Bless...
