Re: Tarantino's?
So did they get their liquor license yet, anyone know? Based on my earlier "3 weeks" quote thinking they should have it by now...

Re: Tarantino's?
They have a much bigger seating area than the old location, but they still fill it out quite nicely during the lunch rush. I'd say for a large group you probably want to show up 11:30ish or a bit before.grovester wrote: How's the space there, thinking of dragging the office down for lunch

Re: Tarantino's?
I just had some Calzones from there yesterday... This place is the best kept secret in Kansas City, for sure.
I can't say enough about their Calzones. I really, truly think that, if word got out how freaking incredible their Calzones are, there'd be a line wrapped all the way around the Sprint Center during the lunch hour.
I get either a #2 (chicken, artichoke and mushroom) Calzone, or a meatball Calzone. They're always the perfect consistency, a nice, thin crispy crust that I believe is lightly basted with garlic butter after it comes out of the oven and gooey inside with the kind of mozzarella that, when pulled away during a bite stretches out 6-8 inches from your mouth to the Calzone. It also doesn't fall apart in your hand...
Seriously, I will never eat another meatball sub after eating their meatball Calzone.

Re: Tarantino's?
Yeah, I've been raving about their calzones since the thread started and they are still just as good since they've moved. I build a sausage, mushroom, basil 'zone - it's an experience.

Re: Tarantino's?
i just brought home a 16" pepperoni and italian sausage chicago-style.
delicious.
i look forward to the leftovers at dinner. this also makes tarantino's a convincing 2 for 2 with only the regular pizza to go to classify it as "totally badass".

Re: Tarantino's?
I went for the first time today at lunch and got a #2 calzone. Pretty good, but not otherworldly. They look beautiful, with perfectly browned pastry crust, but the filling just wasn't that hot, temperature-wise, which I found weird. Definitely a solid lunch, if not a life-changing experience. Saw a pizza delivered to another table that looked pretty good.mizzouboard.info wrote: I get either a #2 (chicken, artichoke and mushroom) Calzone, or a meatball Calzone.

Re: Tarantino's?
^Hmm, wonder if it stood for a while as it's not normal to come out not hot. When you order a special made zone, it will more likely come out quickly as it's not a standard item that might sit (can't say that is the reason).

Re: Tarantino's?
Yeah, I wondered if they had premade specials back there that they threw in the oven for a warmup. I'll definitely give the sausage, mushroom, and basil combo a shot. I'd planned to do that this time, but forgot to check this thread before leaving.ignatius wrote: When you order a special made zone, it will more likely come out quickly as it's not a standard item that might sit (can't say that is the reason).

Re: Tarantino's?
I just tried to call in an order and nobody answered. The above menu says they're open 10-10, but they must've closed early.
I was really craving a calzone, too. Now I'm clueless as to what to eat for dinner.

Isn't there a Hut in the Loop on Broadway? You can get a P'Zone. LOLshaffe wrote: I just tried to call in an order and nobody answered. The above menu says they're open 10-10, but they must've closed early.

Re: Tarantino's?
10-10 pretty much applies to just friday and Saturday nights. The rest of the week he'll close around 9 or 9:30 if he hasn't had any calls. (I hate it when businesses do that, but I like Joe, so I'm torn. )shaffe wrote: I just tried to call in an order and nobody answered.

Re: Tarantino's?
I figured that was the case. It's pushing it to get food in the loop after 9 during the week and I was hoping to get lucky. I can't imagine it's very worthwhile for them to stay open all the way until 10 every single Mon-Thurs.scooterj wrote: 10-10 pretty much applies to just friday and Saturday nights.

Re: Tarantino's?
Agreed...tell him to talk to Cupinis...might not be busy but they are open. Drive by your typical suburban sub shop in the evenings....dead, but they stay open.scooterj wrote: 10-10 pretty much applies to just friday and Saturday nights.
