“ Delicious! We didn't have a reservation but we were able to get in right away. I was 1 week away from giving birth to my 4th baby and was pretty desperate to get her out so we went for the prego pizza. We had it before with my 2nd child and it didn't work so we decided to try again with the last baby. Well, it didn't work for me again... all it did was give me contractions and didn't put me into labor and she came 1 day before her due date but the prego pizza is absolutely delicious. I love how much meat and veggie is loaded on to it. I would order it while not pregnant just because it's that good. The spaghetti was delicious also as well as the spicy pasta dish. They were really busy but the severs were still very nice. Will definitely be back. ”
“ Surprisingly, I came here on Valentine's Day and was able to be seated for dinner. The food was delicious and parking was easy. The restaurant seemed to have a younger crowd. My only gripe was how my server asked if I wanted a refill on hot water and didn't bring one.. why ask if you don't remember to deliver? ”
“ Well, a year ago I did not have the best experience at Skipolinis. The manager kept my number on his computer for a year!! A whole year! And called to offer me dinner tonight, on the house! I have to admit, I was feeling sorry for myself and was reminded that God is good, always. And apparently so is Todd. Thank you Todd and the crew at Skips! You went WAY above and beyond and I truly appreciate the effort. ”
“ I ordered the Tuscan Chicken. So tasty. Flattened chicken breast atop Lemony caper sauce, sun dried tomatoes, arugula. Yum. Plenty of sauce for dipping. ”
“ Quick to be greeted and seated. I always love coming to Skips-and usually sit in the bar. Tonight we opted for a booth in the dining room. The wine offerings are good for both glass and bottle service. One of my favorite appetizers is is bacon wrapped jalapeños-an they did not disappoint. We shared a chop salad for three of us and dined on Tuscan chicken sandwich, Tuscan chicken and blackened salmon. Everything was super tasty and the portions were large. ”
“ Back again! I always say the bar at Skipolini's feels more like a neighborhood bar. We love sitting at the bar area and the ambiance tonight was fitting of a Friday Night, with 80s Old School music playing in the background. I had my usual Chicken Parmesan, because if you ask me, it's just the best in town. All of the employees here are just wonderful, so attentive and friendly, and Todd (the boss) never fails in coming around to make sure both the service and food are great. ”
“ The kid and I decided to try the pizza at Skipolini's just to switch it up. I forgot that they served pizzas here. It's been years since I've been here. We were greeted at the door as we walked in. I told them that we just wanted to order a pizza to go. I ordered a medium cheese pizza. A few minutes later, the server handed me our pizza. The medium pizza (which was 14 inches) seemed like a large. I think in most pizza joints, a 14 inch pizza is considered a large. We opened the pizza when we got home and it was cheesy. They didn't skimp on the cheese which was good. My kid took a bite of it and gave it a thumbs up. He liked it. The pizza was just going to be for him but there's no ways he's going to finish it all. It's a large pizza. I had a piece. It was cheesy. The crust was chewy. I could taste the Italian seasoning in the sauce. The slathered a generous amount of pizza sauce on there along with the cheese. It wasn't busy at all as we visited at an off peak time. My kid enjoyed sitting in the waiting lounge watching his IPad. I played the shuffle board by myself which kept me entertained. Overall, this place was nice. I think we'll get another pizza there in the near future. Plus it's in a convenient location with plenty of parking. ”
“ The employees were fast and friendly. The portion sizes were good not great. The appetizer came with way more jalapeños than I expected for the price. My Cajun pasta had a goot kick to it but not overpowering. Tender chicken and sausage. The veggies in it were perfectly cooked. I always drink water with my meals. I'm not a wine person. They water tasted good. No chemical or iron taste. Lemon was not needed to make the water taste better I would try this place again. Thumbs up! ”
“ Yelp check-in = $5 off $30. My wife is a regular customer and today was my first time. Quality/Quantity - HH Artichoke Spinach Dip - This was really good. I really liked the flavors, sorry I wouldn't even know how to describe it. Decent portions. The bread was toasted. Italian Wedding Soup - My wife got a bowl. It tasted better than it looked. She really enjoyed it and it might be her regular soup that she gets. Mediterranean Pasta - Tasted better than it looks. My wife liked the dish more. Trying to eat healthier, so no meat... HH Chardonnay - Decent pour. Smooth, especially for a chardonnay. Overall a fairly extensive menu. Also available - Health options, lunch specials, etc. They are also known for their pizzas which I will try next time. Atmosphere - Good space. Indoor and outdoor seating. Plenty of seating. Booths, lounge area, tables, bar, outdoor, etc. Private rooms are also available. Clean bathrooms. Open 7 days a week from 11am to 9:30pm or 10:30pm. Plenty of parking; the lot is loose gravel. Live music on Thursdays, see picture. Service - Bailey A was very good, professional, and friendly. He checked up on us at least 3 times. And at 5:59pm, he asked everyone if they wanted anything else from the HH menu. What great service! Price - $34 + generous tip.
