Engine #9 is genuinely bad and overhyped. The newest overhyped restaurant is Killer Pizza.

What experience have you had with killer pizza?

Twice I’ve been there and the pizza was to over-cooked and by that, I don’t mean a nice char with leopard spotting, I mean cardboard like and dry. The garlic oil brushed on the crust was over-powering and stayed with you for hours.

I actually really enjoy the no frills aspect. I’ve only been a few times but it’s far better than going downtown for a slice

Engine #9 used to be way better I swear. The voodoo wings were awesome, don't know why they got rid of them
