Smart Idea
by 4thgradedickhead at Citysearch
I live about 5 minutes from LGO. However, I reallly dont care how close I live I am never going there again. I agree, the music is annoying and "TOO LOUD." I practically had to scream to the cashier lady and she still couldnt hear me. The lady then got very rude and ended up getting our order all wrong. The Havana Latte is pretty good. I recommend that. I noticed LGO raised their prices about $2 on every item. The notebooks in there used to cost $10 now they cost $12. And the pizzas were raised a bunch. Dont go here is you have an hour and a half. You are better off going down the road the Chelsea's Kitchen or The Vig just south of that. Never order one of Tammy Coe's cake. Even though they look awesome, dont get fooled by the price. The tiny cakes range from $20 to $30. Not very smart. But if you go next door to Arleccino Gelateria, you will die for their gelatoes. Awesome.
- Pros: The Gelato place next door
- Cons: Read my review

The bad cancels out the good...

I've been to LGO for breakfast and pizza. I have mixed emotions about the whole place. On one hand, the food really is delicious. Especially the breakfast. The pizzaria is where I really start to question everything. The wait to get seated is usually long. This would be okay if the vibe while waiting was pleasant, but it's just not. The music they play is extremely confusing to me. It seems repetitive on top of being really, REALLY bad. On a few occasions in particular, I heard the same awful CD. It was a female singer doing pathetically bad acoustic versions of classic rock songs such as "crazy train" and others like it. Horrible! My group suffered through it cause we were starving...we finally got sat about an hour later. The staff seemed frantic, and at one point we over-heard a female manager yelling at a few of the servers, in plain ear-shot of customers. This was all before the food came. When it finally did it was alright, but not nearly good enough to make us forget about the bad music, stressed vibe, or weird interactions between the staff. My recomendation, get it TO GO.
- Pros: Breakfast
- Cons: Bad music, long wait, rude managers
