we need more sit down places yes but I just wish it was a differnent food choice. We have a 2 sit down pizza places here in town. the one over by target and walmart.

I do want to see our area grow, but at what cost to our roads and our commute time.

I agree, I would like to have seen it on Plaza or have it taken over the old Hollywood Video. BUT The price wanted for Plaza Blvd lots is outrageous, and has almost nobody driving by, nothing compared to Hughes Rd of course.

It would have been nice if they could have gone downtown, but there isn't really room there. Not with the brewery going in, but I doubt that will happen.

I am a big fan of Pie in the Sky, but with SG sooo much closer, I will probably end up "settling" for the great pizza there!

Lastly, yes, a traffic NIGHTMARE will ensue.

I thought Sam & Greg's had a location downtown, in Northside Square. Went over there a few months ago, people were eating outside, but the pizza didn't look good at all. Burnt, unrecognizable toppings, just generally unappetizing. I hope I caught them on a bad day, because I'd heard they were good. Just haven't seen any evidence of it yet...

Has anyone noticed, there are few windows, on the side facing Hollywood video and Hughes.

Lots facing Kroger, I haven't been on the other side so see if it's full of windows or not.

They do. The Madison location will be their second location. Great to see a local small business expanding.

Looks like S&G may have added some windows facing Hughes.
