★ 5★ 4★ 3★ 2★ 1I have to admit, the pizza at Xeno’s is genuinely good. The crust was perfectly crispy, the toppings were fresh, and the overall flavor was excellent. If you're a pizza fan looking for quality ingredients you won't be disappointed in the product itself.However, that's where the positives largely end. Unfortunately, the price point is simply too high for what you get.Adding to the disappointment was the lackluster service. Despite the restaurant being virtually empty on a Sunday evening, our server seemed disinterested and slow. There was no sense of warmth or attentiveness, and we felt more like an inconvenience than valued customers.
March 09 · D MMXeno’s Pizza is a hidden gem! The pizzas are made with the freshest ingredients, bursting with flavor in every bite. The crust is perfectly baked, and the toppings taste incredibly fresh. The staff is warm, welcoming, and always goes the extra mile to ensure a great experience. Highly recommend!
December 25 · Jatinder SinghChivalry & good customer service is dead here at Xeno’s!!! The food here isn’t even good enough for the staff to be miserable as well. When I told the cashier (middle aged man with glasses) that I was planning to dine in, he said ok, then forgot immediately and asked again. To which I replied, “dining in”. Typically when you dine in anywhere, someone brings your order to your table. Not here at Xeno’s! Chivalry and good customer service is dead. The cashier stood at the register waving my plate of pizza at me signaling for me to get up from the seat that was literally 3 steps away from him. Honestly, he is always rude & has an attitude so I typically avoid Xeno’s entirely because of him and the mediocre pizza. But this interaction has officially put the stamp on it that I will not be returning. Cassiano’s is right down the block and the staff there is wonderful, polite, and will bring your order to you if you are dining in and already sitting. It’s really the little things. ((The photo shows just how close the register is to the table I was sitting at. The cashier could’ve simply taken a couple steps to at least try to provide decent service.))
August 06 · Sandra CevallosI got 4 slices of meat lovers to go. Fast service, pizza crust was nice and crispy with plenty of meat. Definitely worth the visit… 7.5 everybody knows the rules..
February 27 · King RamaPlace is clean and AC blasting on a hot summer day. Staff was nice and friendly and the slice I had was delicious. I’m so particular about my tomato sauce and the one they put on their pizza is perfect. Had a meat lovers slice and it was perfect.
