I really enjoyed my evening at the Quality Chop House. The service and food was outstanding. The challenge is you only have the table for two hours and with chops and steak taking an up to an hour to prepare the meal can feel a little time pressured. I think the restaurant would benefit from a bar to wait at and dwell at afterwards

This is a great pizza restaurant for small groups (2-4 people) if your seating downstairs, I haven’t seen the upstairs area yet. The food was great, service was very good and drinks were served in mason jars rather than cans with glasses so that was nice. The pizza base was good and well cooked, and the toppings were good quality as well. Will definitely be coming back to both here and the coffee room.
