We are always happy to see the kids have a good time. We enjoy the groups that stop to dine on their way to a destination. We are so pleased that you mentioned us on trip advisor. Always feel free to bring the kids in. We look forward to your next visit. Again, thanks for the review. ~Marie~ More

Year after year, we make it a point to stop in for pizza. The staff was also very accommodating and great to work with when we had a large group of teens with us. Highly recommended!

The veggie pizza was good. The ravioli we ordered wasn't good. It didn't have any taste to it and the cheese inside seemed like it was hard. If you want good ravioli the one in Barnellis/Portillos is the best!

We were trying to decide on dinner, and decided on this place based on how friendly the staff was. We ordered a large pizza and spend about $25 for it carry out. It was okay, but nothing special. I like CostCo pizza a little bit more, and it's definitaley a better value.

I've eaten frequently at the Pizza Palace when in the city and would not think of eating elsewhere. Not only is the food delicious but the staff, from owners to cooks in the kitchen to waiters and waitresses, know how to treat their customers. Everyone is important to them. If you want good food and to be treated as someone... More

My wife and I recently took a summer trip up to Mackinaw City to check out the Straits area including Mackinac Island. This was by far our favorite dining stop.
