Yes, sales hype! Once it’s In The oven it cooks everything, it when it comes out of the oven that can be passed on

Pay with card over the phone, they now allow you to add tip over the phone and request contact free delivery...... I did this with Pizza Hut the other night and had no contact at all..... not sure if the other places will do this or not. I am finding all restaurants quite accommodating with "no contact" delivery or curbside pick-up. Sonny's BBQ will even bring it out to your car..... just ask these restaurants when you call...... they want your business.

Bottom line is the pizza is safe to eat.

I have been taking out pizza from Piesano's for the last two or three weeks and I haven't died yet! Just enjoy it.

How is "No Contact Delivery" actually done? Is the food left on your door step protected in bags? Does the driver then ring the door bell then leave before you open the door? We haven't tried this yet.

My husband and I have always frequented Stavros in Fruitland Park for pizza. It is a great, local family-run business. They are taking the precautions, gloves and masks, etc. We have done two pickups. We are trying to do business with locals when we can.

I love Piesano’s but I have to say our carry out experience seemed a little sketchy. Table outside with register. One gal handling both the ordering (for people who did not call in such as several construction guys), and getting the pizza boxes out of the restaurant. This was our first carryout since this started. She took cash and then got the boxes, no gloves, no cleaning her hands after taking cash. Construction guys stood around with no social distancing whatsoever. We had to keep moving while waiting. They were touching everything. The table, the rack that holds the bags, etc. then the bags need replacing and she hooked more on while touching the rack they just touched. Now back to getting more pizza boxes, again no sanitizer in between. She was busy and trying to handle way too much. I just think there could have been a few more steps in the process. She had no idea these guys were touching everything but more hand sanitizer on her part was in order. Then there was the guy who picked up the menu, had it for awhile and then set it back down for the next person. That was a week ago. Maybe things are better now than that day. I know some will say how great their experience was but I felt my need to share what we need to be on the lookout for.

Too bad they make a poor pizza, lacking flavour.

Which pizza are you referring to as "lacking flavor"? Sam's Club or Pappa John's?

I’d be surprised if any pizza was put together without glove being used, of course in the old days no one used gloves. It has become a serious health code violation not to use gloves.
