I became an Archie's fan years ago when I first tasted their pizza and bread--it was excellent. Now, however, my opinion has drastically changed. I've been there 3 or 4 times since my last good experience, hoping to find what had originally impressed me. In summary, their pizza is average/good and their bread has gone from great to average. The service is really what makes an average restaurant into a bad one. Last time we went, our waiter was in charge of a huge section and of course he couldn't devote enough time to most tables. Instead he opted to spend most of the time catering to the largest table with most people (aka higher tip than my 2 person table--bad choice for him since I tend to be a very generous tipper). So we received bad service from waiter and to top it all off when we were leaving not only did the hostess block the door as she talked on with her friends, but she didn't even wish us a good night or whatever. This wasn't the first time I received bad service at Archie's, but it definitely will be my last one. I'd rather go to Bugatti and get my pizza there instead!
Pros: Average Pizza, Good Location
Cons: Service!
