A College Hotspot

 The first thing you feel when you walk into Unida Pizza is comfort. From the spacious dining room to the bench directly to your right when you walk in. The dining room gives the comforting feel you should get when entering a mom-and-pop pizza place. The walls are sea-foam green with brown and white square marbling lining them which then transitions to wood paneling. The kitchen is in a hexagon shape, right as you walk in. Have you ever seen a see-through rotating pizza oven? If not, stop by Unida and peak at their oven!     

They offer many different seating options. The pale green tables have tan lining, with black and green chairs all in rows. Some tables seat 2, while others seat 4 and 6. 

 

Perfect for group dining!

  

Summer dining!

   

 

 If you enjoy dining with a breeze, then the deck is perfect for dining during the summer or spring. As well as if you enjoy people- watching then it is a great feature. This ties together that Unida cares and wants everyone to be comfortable here. 

 The dining room has spacious windows with drink coolers stocked with all the favorites. The cooler has soda, iced teas, water, and energy drinks. Need something to cool off with? No problem,  Unida offers a "dippin' dots" machine in store! They cater to all audiences, if you have children with you they have an old black dough machine in the middle of the dining area which offers a fun conversation piece or a picture!

   

Great for pictures!

   During my interview I spoke to Liam W, a kind  employee. Liam had blonde hair that was styled as a buzz cut, with circle silver glasses and an all black outfit. He spoke kindly with strong answers. He was fresh out of  high school and needed a job, it being walking distance  was a perk. Liam says his favorite part about working at  Unida is meeting new people and helping customers.   When it comes to rushes, no big deal! They are used to it,   especially once school is back in session. The spacious layout of the kitchen helps a lot and aids in any tensions that may arise. The team bonding here is amazing and  helps to keep pressures low during rushes. They have holiday parties and everyone has been working together so long that tie into the good team bond. Liam's key to the perfect pizza? "The crust" he stated confidently. Liam also   enthusiastically said his favorite pizza was the "Philly Cheesesteak pizza". 

Liam also claimed the Unida stands out from other places in town because everything is made in house, they care about food quality,  "We eat the food too, so it matters" Liam said with a smile. Becoming a pizza maker at Unida isn't easy. You must work your way up, dishes, delivery driver, hoagie station, then pizza maker/manager.  Which further proves the point that Unida cares about their customers.

As I sat observing the dining area I noticed how clean the dining area was. While I was there they only had take out orders. Every time a customer came in, they were greeted by a "Hi, how may I help you" that sounded genuine and not like a chore.  During the interview with Liam, I observed some kitchen banter as they made orders. Everyone was very welcoming, however Liam was the only one up for an interview, but did a very good job sharing everyone's values. 

If you're looking for a quick bite to eat, or a sit down family dinner, Unida is the place for you!
