What's the story with that place? Are they open? What are their hours?

And mostly, are they really fresh?

I drove by that place when I was home during the holidays. It was good to see another restaurant on the Wayne State campus.

If anyone hasn't tried this franchise...I first found them in California, they absolutely and totally ROCK.

The Fresh in their name is NOT a lie.

Can't wait for another great option for eats.

Would have to second Gannon on this one.

Good stuff -- and good value.

Unless people are going to start bitching about spending $8 on lunch again

(I am looking at you Susanarosa -- I know, I know "eyes up here")

Didn't know Susanarosa was such a cheap date, that Beav guy is pretty lucky.

There is nothing cheap about susanarosa -- we like to call it "value".

And, after a lifetime of having the football pulled away as he is about to kick it, I dare say that it is about time for some good fortune for thebeav.

could be, since the full name is la pita fresh...baja fresh, la pita fresh...names are similar, although the food is VASTLY different...

who gave you this possibly erroneous info, dialh?

No, it's entirely possible that I was wrong! Friends were seeking a "healthy" takeout idea.

Matt told me there was one there.

I actually like Pizzeria Venti. There used to be one in GP on Mack, owned by James Maniscalco. I was excited to see it was coming to campus. http://www.pizzeriaventi.com/

The one at WSU seems to be moving ahead VERY slowly. I walked by for the first time in 6 months or more the other day. They seem to be quite a ways from opening still, though they've had the sign up for probably a year or longer. Same for the TCBY yogurt place going in there.

The Pizzeria Venti @ Wayne State opened last week.

They did a great job on the buildout -- lots of seating, plus some couches and lounge chairs w/ plugs for laptops. Pizza by the slice (many kinds), stuffed pizza pies, pasta, soups, salads, desserts, coffee/expresso/etc. Menu is at the website: www.pizzeriaventi.com

It's @ 655 W Kirby; 313-831-2810 or Skype: pizzeriaventi. Mon-Thurs 10am-10pm, Fri-Sat 10am-11pm, Sun 11am-8pm.
