Noble Roman's has been open at 2920 near Gosling for over two months, but so far has flown a bit under the radar. I stopped in for lunch on Saturday, and went for a couple of the
secondary items that they promote for lunch--an Italian roast beef
sandwich and some wings.
The shop was empty at the time, so
service was prompt but also polite. It seems to be a family operated
business. I ordered the above mentioned items with a Coke from the
cooler. They advertise the lunch as fast, and indeed the sandwich came
right out, as quick as Quizno's. Not quite the variety of vegetables.
The sandwich had beef, banana peppers, and LOTS of mozzarella. It was
well toasted and nicely salty.
My wings came a few minutes later.
Freshly cooked and very hot. I had wanted the boneless ones, but
they were out of them in traditional flavor so they gave me wings for
the same price (normally a bit more expensive). The wings were cooked
perfectly, with a nice crisp skin and tender on the inside.
Unfortunately they didn't have a whole lot of flavor.
The
restaurant itself is mostly set up for takeout. The single rest room
was not perfectly clean but good enough. Decor is a single line of
tables with a view of a large timeline of pizza in America. According
to that chart, the Noble Roman chain was founded in 1972.
So I have yet to try the pizza. It has good reviews on Google, but I cannot speak from first hand knowledge--that's for
another time. They offer online ordering and delivery through third
parties. If the pizza is good, it's the only standout--the other items
are edible but you can get better elsewhere.
Update: We tried the pizza on our next pizza night. It's decent, but the selection is a bit narrow--only one kind of crust, and no alfredo sauce. They do have individual size pizzas. Overall it did not change my impression.
