I can't say enough good things about this lovely shop! I live in the neighborhood and I order and pick up a to-go at this shop nearly every day since I discovered it half a month ago. So far everything I bought from this shop, I love it. The crews are friendly and hardworking, very easy to work with. What I love most is - they have the BEST Gluten-Free pizza in the world! If you are sensitive to gluten like I am and you like pizza, please do yourself a favor and give it a try. Yes, there are tons of pizza shops making GF pizzas - using pre-made flimsy and boring and rigid crust, but this one is different. Johnnie's GF pizza totally blew me away. The crust is so plump and fresh (I guess they made the dough freshly by themself?), the sauce is just right (not too salty like a lot other pizza shops'), the bacon is thick sliced, and I was amazed by their eggplant topping! I was super excited when eating and I thanked god for letting me find such phenomenal GF pizza after becoming sensitive to gluten a few years ago. STRONGLY RECOMMEND! Remember, eat right away, don't leave it overnight, 'cuz the second morning you won't like the crust's texture - that's unfortunately the unavoidable problem for most GF dough product. What I loved most before I tried their GF pizza were the wings. I like buffalo hot flavor but I strongly suggest trying the original (or they call "plain"), and make sure you eat right away. Very crispy (I know, there might be a little flour there, I hope my body can tolerate it), with moderate mouth-watering scent of thoroughly-fried chicken fat, and the thing is - these wings are huge! Take a bite and you get great sense of content! LOL! Again, don't wait till they cool down, eat right away! One thing I like most about their salads is the 4 pieces of roasted potatoes on top. OMG, they are 4 pieces of art... Every time after the first try when I ordered their salads, I wanted to ask if I could double the potatoes, but the man who cooks the potatoes sounded (and looked) serious so I hadn't got the gut to ask. I highly suspect eventually there would be one day when I finally can't resist the temptation of the "art" and can't help asking. LOL!! Just wish more things on their menu could be made GF, and no black-out days for GF pizzas. So grateful to have this little cozy shop in the neighborhood. It's a hidden gem.
