Disappointing Experience at Round Table
My experience at this Round Table Pizza location was incredibly disappointing. I ordered an extra-large King Arthur pizza along with Parmesan garlic and BBQ wings. Unfortunately, the pizza was tasteless and lacked any flavor, even after I tried adding my own seasoning.
I'm very disappointed because Round Table used to be my favorite pizza place, but I'm done with them, especially this location. The wings also seemed soggy and undercooked. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone and will definitely not be returning.
To add to the poor experience, the staff member at the register was inattentive, stopping mid-order to have a conversation with colleagues in the back, completely forgetting I was there. I ended up wasting $60 dollars here and advise everyone to save their money, particularly at this location.

Bugs in wings, no appetite
My experience at this restaurant was very disappointing. I found black bugs in the box of my six piece wings, which completely ruined my appetite. Because of this, I didn't even want my garlic twist anymore.

Depressing Atmosphere, Service, and Food
My experience at this restaurant was quite depressing. The employees sounded like they were serving a sentence, and this negativity unfortunately came through in the food. To top it off, it's not cheap.
Good luck, guys.

Good pizza, rocky service start
My husband, myself, and my emotional support small dog visited. We ordered a medium cheese and sausage pizza. Although others arrived after us, we were approached by an employee who questioned our presence.
My husband explained we were waiting for our pizza, which we had ordered a while ago. The employee then asked for a receipt, which we didn't have. He spoke to the young man who took our order, and we were told it would be a few minutes.
They were busy with online orders and had forgotten about us. Despite the initial service hiccup, the pizza was good.
