In a hurry but not wanting to scarf down a Big Mac and fries for the third time this week? Call ahead to Pompei for some gnocchi in marinara sauce or a chopped chicken salad, and it will be ready for pickup when you arrive. If you have more than 10 minutes to spare, come in and dine in Pompei's pleasant, bistro-like setting. You'll order your food at the counter, grab your silverware and select a table. Sit back and wait for your fresh and affordable food to be brought to you, piping hot and always delicious. Pompei specializes in handmade ravioli, hand cut pasta and ''pizzicottos,'' which are much like calzones with the good stuff spilling out. You can get traditional pizza, too -- stuffed or thin -- and there is a whole list of salads to choose from, like the traditional Caprese or the unique Mela Verde with field greens, Granny Smith apples, dried cherries, blue cheese and walnuts smothered in vinaigrette. Take it to an outside table in the summertime. Catering service also available.

Horrible delivery service
By jaamun81 on 06/21/2008
Everytime I order from Pompei, my order is always messed up. The order is repeated 3 times to ensure accuracy and yet upon delivery, which takes about an hour, my entire order is jacked up and I have to wait longer for a replacement delivered. At this time, I lose my appetite and no longer wish to eat the food. VERY DISAPPOINTING!!!!

The soups, salads and pasta are fantastic, always fresh and hot. On real busy days it is well worth the wait.
