That place is pretty good. Great service too for as busy as it gets.

Wife and I tried Andiamo Pizzeria the week that Dave reviewed it.

IT WAS PACKED!

Owners told us that they normally went through 100 doughballs daily.

After the rave review, they started going through 400!

The pizza was legit.  Great flavor on the cheese and the sauce.  Is one of our favorites.

We are waiting to try the pizza at Trevor's Liquor next.

Hector, I'm happy to hear that. When El Presidenté said he was about to change their lives, I knew he meant that.

Has he wrecked any lives with bad reviews?

Probably the place that he got kicked out of and gave a 0.0, I'd imagine they didn't see an uptick in sales.

The owner told us that Dave asked them if that was all the staff they had.  He replied, "Yes".

Dave told them he would need to hire more staff.  He didn't believe him 100%.

He knows now how mistaken he was. 

When we went, the small staff was running on fumes.  Utterly, completely exhausted.

But why?

I'd rather know if my pizza is garbage and change things for the better.  I remember seeing something about him getting booted by an owner but don't know where it was.

I'm just stoked for a couple new leads in AZ

Why not? Cuz they kicked Dave portnoy out? Big deal. 

Now if they kicked out the mayor of flavortown, I’d probably stay away
