Andolini's Pizza - Mount Pleasant

All that being said, I absolutely did not want my review to precipitate the place closing entirely. It had been successful in that location for about 15 years I think, an just needed the consistency of good pizza makers which they often had...and frankly the West Ashley location was still making bad pizza the times I visited. The N. Chas location just had bizarrely apathetic zombie-like service. Plus who the Hell wants to go to Rivers Avenue...for anything?

If the pizza was amazing I 'd give it 2 stars, but since it was only so-so, this rating is based on the experience and the service. First of all I have to admit that I hate the set-up where I go in, order at the counter, then sit at a table. I prefer to sit and order a drink, read through a menu, and take my time to place my order. Had I known this was that type of set up, we 'd have looked up the menu online, called ahead our order, then picked it up. So, my husband and I entered the restaurant and no one else was waiting to order. As we looked at the board to decide what we wanted to order, the girl at the register, with a long brown pony tail, looked annoyed that we weren 't ready right away. We only took a minute, then ordered an 18 inch pepperoni and a beer and wine. We had seen pictures of pizzas with more exotic toppings, but they looked to have more topping than cheese/sauce/crust (which if you like that, this is your kind of place, we like to taste the actual pizza). She took our credit card, and we were given a receipt with a space for a tip. Um, ok, who am I tipping and how do I know what to tip when we haven 't been served? She also handed us a number to take to our table. Husband and I looked around and since it was so hot in the front area, we walked over to the center of the restaurant to put down our number and my purse. Just as we approached the table, the girl yells out, Your drinks?!?! I looked back and saw she had them sitting next to the register at this point so I went back up to retrieve them. As we sat waiting, and drinking our drinks, realizing we 'd have to go back up to the register for a 2nd drink by the time our pizza arrived, and watching the youthful staff slug around and make jokes with each other, husband and I decided to get our pizza to go. My husband walked back up front, but the girl at the register was walking toward the back. She saw my husband approaching, but ignored him. A minute later when she returned from the back, my husband said, Excuse me ma 'am, we 'll actually take that to-go to which she actually rolled her eyes and did not respond! Luckily we did not wait much longer for our pizza to arrive. Like I mentioned, it was ok . A bit undercooked for my taste, but the right amount of cheese-to-sauce ratio. And we are pizza connoisseurs, just read our other reviews. I just can 't get past being treated rudely when we are spending our money in your establishment.

Ok the worker were slow. Took 45 minutes to get a 10 inch and two small salads. One girl sprayed the table with cleaner and wiped the table then with the same cloth wiped the seats them moved to the next table and wiped the table with the same cloth that she just had cleared the seats!! The place was not busy but the parking lot was full because the restaurant beside then the customer were parking every where.

The pizza is usually great but this tima a round I decided to order a calzone. It was an online order and when I got back to my office to enjoy the meal I opened the box and it was well overcooked. I would have taken it back but being that I got it on my lunch break Ididnt have the time to do so. Very disappointed in this trip. The employees are always pleasant the food this time was not the best

This pie joint is reminiscent of the Shakey's days as a child. But the size of the large was bigger than my FACE! Almost Hawaiian delighted our buds but we could not finish the big boy off! Make sure you take a walk after eating one of the beasts and enjoy the old bar stools, paint, the last supper pic!
