Azalea Inn Restaraunt, Norfolk, Virginia Restaurant Details

Food:

We were there for the first time because we had heard their pizza was awesome! We got there and loved the atmosphere, very family friendly and their menu was simple to choose from. We ordered 3 pizzas, cheese, meat lovers and pepperoni which were amazing and came out pretty quick!! This will definitely be our new favorite pizza place!
Unfortunately, I have to give them a 3 because of the service. After our pizzas were delivered the waitress left us there sitting for a very long time. She walked past our table like 6 times and didn't even ask if everything was OK, if she could remove plates or if we wanted to order anything else. She had a trainee helping her which was the one checking on us constantly. When she decided to come to our table she came with the ticket, which we hadn't requested because we wanted desserts. It took them another 20 minutes to bring the desserts and another 20 to bring us the check. When we got the check, it had the gratuity included because we were a group of more than 6.(We were 7. 4 Adults and 3 children) So I asked the trainee if it had to be included, because I wanted to give more of the tip to her and a smaller portion to the other waitress that we hardly saw. She had no idea so called the waitress Annie, who decided to argue and say that she left her trainee alone because she was learning and that she still mostly everything, that the gratuity had to be included and walked of with her rude attitude. The next 2 times she came by to get my card and give me the receipt to sign which was a bill of 160 something dollars she had a sarcastic tone and never offered apologies or for us to speak with management. Her trainee later did.

So sorry it was so long, but as a former waitress and after loving the place so much on our first visit, we were really disappointed of the treatment we received from Annie. If it wasn't for that I would give them a 5.

Food:

We had not been there for a while and we were in the area and mouths were watering for a good old Azalea Inn pizza. We ordered the Azalea Special medium to go. We got it home and opened it contemplating a great pizza like we used to get. We were definitely disappointed with the pizza. We don't know if the pizza formula has changed or if it was who made it but it was not what the pizzas were like before. Definitely won't go out of my way to go again. Pizza was not good at all, crust was thicker than was before and didn't have the taste of before.

Food:

I used to work there a few years ago. It was a pure hell! General manager, older skinny lady, treated people she didn't like (including me) with no respect, she could yell or get frustrated and mad with little things. No work ethic.
Such a negative work atmosphere withing employees too.
Worst place I've ever worked at!
However, it was busy pretty often, so I assume people were happy with the food selection.

Food:

Clean, Inexpensive as real restaurants go. Only there for meals about once a month. Liver, mashed potatoes, green beans, gravy and onions...ALL AMERICAN GOURMAND FOOD! Friends like their Greek specialties. A separate lounge section and sports bar too! For those interested...there is an arcade room...Take outs available. The "call in orders" are always ready when I get there! Always!!

Food:

So last (1/22/2016) night my wife and I went to Azalea Inn grill and time out sports bar. I ordered a shrimp fettuccine alfredo. The server brings my food and I could smell the shrimp long before she put the plate on the table! NOT THE GOOD SHRIMP SMELL EITHER!!!!! No biggie, I called the server back and told her the shrimp were bad and of course I didn't want to eat it. (Shrimp smelled rotten and there was visible discoloration on the tips!!!)! Everything would have been fine except 2mins later the server came back, apologies for the meal and then proceeds to tell me "But the shrimp weren't bad"!!! Yoooooooo!! Immediately Other servers came over and we're like "whoa, I smelled that plate when she brought it out"! Very unbelievable.
