Here is a little information about Wolfman Pizza: Wolfman Pizza has over 22 specialty pizzas, the freshest salads, panini sandwiches and much more.

They shred their Sorrento® whole milk mozzarella cheese daily. They cut fresh local (when available) vegetables daily. Another great thing is kids eat FREE every Tuesday from 5PM to 8PM.
