Interesting place with surfer/island theme. The pizza is really good and they offer a selection of unique speciality pizzas and a huge variety of ingredients to make your own. Their cheesebread is also really good. Crust is great not too thin not too thick. Servers are very friendly and service is quite fast. Would recommend to anyone.

Traveling through town and stopped here to stay the night. Saw this place on HappyCow. Really delicious pizza and they have vegan cheeze! We got the ‘meat haters’ pizza and loved it!

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would! My boyfriend and I shared the wings and a 10" pizza. Their wings are ALL GLUTEN FREE and they have cauliflower crust for their pizzas. The wings were probably the best wings I have had in Grand Island. 100% Recommend this place! (We ordered the Spicy BBQ wings and the supreme pizza)

A great find on a long road trip...made us a dream to-go pizza in a short period of time and had the best Vegan cheese to go on the pizza along with everything else associated - a challenge to find in that section of the country....friendly crew and has the looks of a fun place to dine-in...they do have outside seating for dogs but only during the warmer season...

This is such a funny weird place. Really enjoy the salt shaker story (I relzin d doubtful). The pizza are delicious, the sandwiches are ok (a little disappointed by the bread, i had hope more home made than store style bun). Service is good, but a little slow (they are training so understandable). It took 45 min to get our Pizzas... And we were one of the only two parties there (however we saw a few people picking up order). To be fair it is a low five stars.

The Hawaiian pizza came out with a perfectly crisp crust and just the right balance of sweet and savory. Service was quick and upbeat, and the surf-inspired décor made the whole place feel fun and relaxed.
