Experience Through Their Eyes

What a great different style of Pizza that this region needed! Medium Deep Dish Detroit, with a spot on Sweet sauce that was scrumptious. Super friendly staff, along with outstanding food. This in my new must buy Pizza on the weekend! Welcome to Minooka. And the wing bites are better than Nina's in my book. #Justsaying No need to drive to Dunmore to get these items, I think it's DunBetter in Minooka.

This place is really great! I ordered the Detroit pizza and the mild garlic wing bites, and everything was delicious. The pizza crust was nice and crunchy, and the sauce had a nice sweetness to it. The wing bites were made from good quality chicken, and they were spicier than I expected, but for me, that was a positive thing. The staff was really great as well. One thing to note is they are cash only which was slightly disappointing but when I was there picking up my order it appears that they do accept Venmo as payment there was a QR venmo scan code on the counter so next time I'll have to try that. Either way, I would highly recommend this establishment.
