" Visited Universal Pizza based on various recommendations, and the hype was legitimate. The food came out quick, and the gluten-free pizza truly had the texture of a regular one. The service was friendly but could be a bit faster with the rush. A lovely gem worth the visit for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Despite a long wait, the pizza was worth it! It was piping hot and tasted so fresh, and you can tell they use quality ingredients. The staff were friendly, and the atmosphere felt very welcoming. I must say, their crust was exceptional! I’ll be returning to sample more from their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" My favorite pizza place! Each time I come back, I am greeted with friendly faces and delicious food. I especially love their breadsticks and marinara sauce. The prices are also reasonable. I cannot recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a negative experience recently. My order seemed to take a long time, and when it finally arrived, it was wrong. The staff apologized and offered a discount, which was nice. I just hope my next experience is smoother because I've heard many good things about this place. " (*Curated Review*)

" Average experience overall. The pizza was alright, but I expected something more special based on the reviews. The crust was a bit too thick for my taste. They had some great desserts, especially the fried Oreos; I would come back for those. " (*Curated Review*)

" I did not enjoy my visit. The pizza lacked the flavor I was hoping for and the service was unusually slow. It just wasn't memorable. However, I’ve heard good stories from friends and might give it another shot if I’m ever in the area again. " (*Curated Review*)

" This is my go-to local pizza spot! I've tried a variety of their pizzas and each one has been delicious. The gluten-free pizza is out of this world, and you'd never guess it wasn't traditional. It's always fresh and hot, and the staff are incredibly welcoming. " (*Curated Review*)
