The staff is generally friendly, and the energy is lively, making it a popular spot for sports and social gatherings.

Excellent hosts and a wide variety of food to choose from. We love to sit on the rooftop on sunny days. While it can get loud with a crowd, there's good energy and everybody is pretty respectful there. The menu has a good variety. From pizza to sandwiches (grinders) and yummy burgers. It can get hot up there in the summertime but they have fans under the enclosure that helps with the heat.

Ordered chicken tenders which were advertised as barrel breaded tenders for $15 including fries only to get some small air fryer made tenders with air fryer fries, very small portion. Was disappointed and let management know. They actually over charged me the next day when I saw my card statement after telling me I’d get a discount but still had to pay for a meal that I could’ve made at home. Lackluster job by management. Will NOT BE RETURNING. went to cary sports and social after and got better service and real tenders for less than what I spent at rudinos.

The Grandma Pie crust was normal, not Sicilian, and it was a little stale and chewy too. My husband got a medium two topping and the crust was the same. The rooftop is nice, so we will continue to come for football, but it won't become our local pizza joint.

UPDATED REVIEW. 6/17/23 DROPPED TO 3 STARS from 2 years ago when we came last. We sat rooftop for dinner, not busy. Waiter (young male) was slow, waited over 10 mins for ranch (ordered with the meal, asked someone else to check on it and then was charged for them!), slow for drink refills etc. Maybe it was his first job? Idk. Food was decent, tried something new, the Buffalo chicken dip and it was good. Not a fan of a la carte items. FYI Calazone here comes with sauce in it, weird! Back in another 2 years 😆 GREAT pizza, I wish I had taken a photo of it. The grinders remind me of Penn Station Subs which isnt bad. The also have french fries like Snoopy's. Yum! The have an awesome ROOFTOP seating area with lots of SPACE!! When we went for weekday lunch it was packed and short staffed. Not a quick place to eat if on a work lunch.

I go there a lot. My favorite spot in Raleigh. Italian rolls are on point. I go at least once a week. I live in Mebane so it's about an hour away. Great food and sports bar

came here for dinner and the balcony.. starting with the venue, it's a sports bar, with outdoor seating. they have a bar downstairs as well. the place was understaffed so patience is appreciated. the food was the worst for us. if you are here for drinks, great. the burger apparently is pre cooked.. so you can't get the cook you want. the French dip jus was not great , overall edible but not worth coming back.

Awesome bar or family place. Order the Classic Italian Roll. Extra crispy if you’re a boss
