Our Guestbook
“ I really think the calzones are a good value for as huge as they are! Half of one is plenty for a meal for me, so it's like buy one get one! ”
“ I'm from Nashville in town visiting family and stopped in here.... I was recommended The Duke and it was UNBELIEVABLE. I don't know if this has franchise ability but deeply considering it for Nashville... this was great. ”
“ Great Calzones and Salads! Nice place to grab a meal to take home or eat in. Decent beer choices as well. ”
“ Really really good. The calzones are fun but all make sense. The dipping sauces were on point and the bites were delish. They are doing it right. ”
“ Our first time visiting this establishment and we were greeted by the manager, Edward. Asked if we had ever been there before. Proceeded to explain all the options in a very friendly and helpful way. Very warm and seemed to genuinely care about our experience. The food was hot and flavored well. Clean restaurant and inviting atmosphere. We will be back! ”
“ What a great place. I called to place our order and the person who answered the phone was friendly and attentive. They got our order right. When I picked it up, they were efficient. The calzones were yummy. I had the Five-O, and I really liked it. The dough was fully cooked and fresh! The Caesar Salad was awesome. We will be ordering here again! ”
“ Calzone? Calz-many! I've been excited for this restaurant ever since it was announced it was opening a new location in twin oaks. The place has a great rewards program that you're going to want to sign up for because you will be back again and again. They offer a calzone of the month, that keeps the menu fresh, but I keep finding my way back to the Pancho Villa if I'm in the mood for some great, or the Meat Me in St. Louie if I'm looking for something traditional. They also offer a Mac and cheese calzone for the kids (or adults - no shame) or a build-your-own-pie where you can just get cheese or pepperoni. The workers are quick and nice, and there is a good variety of local beers on draft, as well. Have no fear when coming here, it is always clean and the music is not overpowering and the food is reliably delicious: the Calzones will not betray you. ”
“ Ordered online through their website. It was an easy and quick process. They had the food prepared in the quoted 15 minutes. Fairly large space with lots of tables. Wasn't busy at 6 on a Thursday. Ordered: - Fatty B (4/5): Tasty calzone with pepperoni and meatballs. A bit much ricotta for my personal preference - I may adjust next time. - Bullseye (4.25/5): Excellent flavor combos. Preferred red sauce over the French onion sauce, although the French sauce was very complementary. It just seamed a bit heavy. ”
