    I’m a pizza with ranch kind of guy, and I didn’t use ranch—it was delicious without it. We ordered the chicken pesto pizza, added black olives and mushrooms. All four of us thoroughly enjoyed it, AND the customer service was great. Definitely recommend.

    I hate leaving a 2 star review because the pizza was solid, but the falafel was hands down the worst falafel I’ve ever had. I read a couple reviews to just stick with the pizza if your ordering here so it is my fault for not listening. This is the only falafel I could find in Cookeville so I was desperate and ignored the reviews. The falafel had no flavor, was doughy (I don’t know how that’s possible) the tzatziki had no flavor and a weird thick consistency. The pita was also extremely thick and doughy. Texturally the falafel and pita were hard to distinguish between. It was legitimately inedible. I took 1 bite and threw it away. The pizza was actually pretty good. Not great but I would of gave the place between 3-4 stars if I only ordered the pizza. It didn’t hold up well the next day but fresh it was very good. Only thing I can do is echo the other reviews. If you come here ONLY ORDER PIZZA!

    Nice little restaurant/deli. Crunchy crust pizza, great flavor and well worth several visits. We had the supreme pizza and the Greek salad. The dressing on the Greek salad was superb! Pizza was fresh and the pizza crust is definitely homemade! Highly recommend!!!

    Great little "Hole in the wall" Cafe to visit in town. Large pizza slices with great flavor. Friendly service in a "cozy" dining room. Must visit for a gourmet slice of pizza.

    Go here for food and atmosphere! Tucked away in an old building in the old part of town, you'll find World Foods. When you enter the door, your senses are hit with the most wonderful smells. The staff are so friendly. Be sure to save room for dessert!

    Best pizza I've ever had, and I'm from Long Island where the best pizza in the world comes from. If you're not going to world foods for your pizza you're going to the wrong place.

    Fantastic food and service! The only thing we didn't like was someone bringing in a very large hairy service dog in such a small place of food beside me, my wife, and infant while we ate.

    Waited an hour on a pizza. It was so freaking hot inside the deli, we had to take our pizza to go, because we had an event to be at. We didn’t get to eat one bite of it. We were so hot and hungry we were sick and my daughter is now sick in the parking lot and we have to go home. When it’s hot outside, people like to have a cool place to set and enjoy their meal. Why would you make your employees and customers miserable? 28 dollars down the drain. I also think for a Saturday night that there should be more employees.

    Amazing people and wonderful food. Its a great lunch spot to grab a slice of Pizza in a great atmosphere. They also have great sandwiches and desserts. I have been coming here for over 8 years and it never disappoints.

    I rarely write reviews on anything, but I love this place so much! The pizza is fantastic. Best pizza ever! Their chicken pesto pizza is my absolute favorite food from anywhere. The cheesecake is also delicious. And everyone who works there is so friendly, really great people!

    Had the grilled chicken pesto and friend had HUGE pizza slice with vege/meat combo. Music golden mixed years of rock n roll. Awesome place.

    I was craving some fried pickled spears, and this place had some really good ones served with Dejon sauce. The food was good. The atmosphere was wonderful and the service was grate I ordered my pickels to go and by the time I got there they were ready. 🙂

    Went there with a friend for the first yesterday and overall disappointed with my visit. I felt like the price/ratio was toomuch $$$ for the amount of food I got. The quality was not where I would have expected either I paid $14.50 for a pastrami sandwich that had probably only a few ounces of meat. The pizza was overcooked and not adequately covered with toppings. I paid $26 for a 20" Supreme that was probably worth $12. The only thing priced fairly was the alcohol and yet they no domestic selection at all. The service was decent, the people were friendly, just yhe quality and quantity sucked. Because of that I won't be back and I won't recommend this place. After talking to my friend reluctantly, he agreed and felt the same way and apologized for taking me there. He also said he won't be back..

    You can never go wrong with a good ole Philly with no green peppers and extra cheese and Whole Foods gave me just that. Fast.. fresh and hot with a wonderful staff. How could one complain??

    Delicious lunch! Spanakopita was delightful and the steak and cheese sandwich was quite yummy too. Loved that toasty baguette ❤️

  • 5/5 Dillon H. 1 year ago on Google
    Great place to grab a slice of excellent pizza and some craft beer. Very down to earth and friendly staff. They sold me a slice with onions on it, which I do not enjoy with the overwhelming majority of foods, and it was incredible. I hear the sandwiches are good too, and I'll very likely go back to investigate these rumors.

    The pizza was fire, definitely not going to be getting pizza anywhere else in Cookeville. The cannolis and desserts in general are fresh and delicious. Staff was super friendly and knowledgeable about the food. If you're ever in Cookeville, stop in grab a slice and see what I'm talking about. 10/10

    My friend and I had lunch here today. It was excellent. We've eaten here several times in the past and it didn't disappoint. The food is fresh. The price is right and the staff is welcoming. I enjoy Mediterranean foods and this place nails it! We both had the Falafel wraps with lettuce, tomato and Tzasziki sauce. Delicious! Thanks to the staff for the friendly service. We'll be back!

    So good! I was so impressed by how fresh and flavorful the pizza was. Great hummus and Brussels sprouts as well. Will definitely be back.
