Good God I hope not; I stopped playing his tourneys years ago. He loved taking the money and run while paying little attention to the teams playing. He'd have high power level teams playing in low rec brackets against people who couldn't even understand the concept of a 3 hit cycle.The Central Scrutinizer wrote:I wonder if this is the same Brian Williams who runs a lot of local volleyball leagues? If so, there might some bumps along the way.

"Some bumps along the way" was the nicest way I could phrase it. In other words, I don't think I would do business with him.dweebe wrote:Good God I hope not; I stopped playing his tourneys years ago.

Just spoke to a worker outside. He reports that they will open Saturday, May 15. Next week, Saturday, May 8 (I think), the Pizza Co. will be giving away FREE pizza from 12-1 for community appreciation day.

This place seems to have succumbed to that fatal bug afflicting so many local joints: Mysteriously Closed For No Apparent Reason Syndrome.
Had an office full of people ready to eat lunch there today. Of course, the doors are locked, posted hours of operation be damned. Looks like the skeptics were right.
I don't get it. You spend tons of time and money fixing a place up and starting a business - then you can't be bothered to stick to any kind of schedule? What?

I was on South Grand last week and watched as several people come up to the restaurant only to find it closed (Friday c. 6pm). A couple said they had eaten there the previous week.

I sure miss the Middle Eastern Market that occupied that space in the 90s.

I don't understand how you can open a place only to shut it in 2 months. These people don't have any business opening in the first place if they don't have the bank roll to cover a few lean months at start up.

Has it even been open two months?
Perhaps they blew their bank on the many months of rent they must have been paying before they even opened. I know that the unforseen happens, but I'm amazed at how many places take so long getting open.

Apparently it was a medical issue on the part of the owner; they say they'll be resuming regular hours today.
I actually went by there on July 2nd or 3rd and they were open, but their credit card machine was not set up yet, so I couldn't order.
Looked at their menu... they have Chicago, St. Louis, and NY style pizza.

The Grand South Grand facebook entry on the matter:
National Pizza Company [3201 S. Grand] Big B is back to 100% so he’s going back to the kitchen! They will resume our original hours (including lunch) and expect
to accept credit cards starting Wednesday or Thursday.Try a slice on their honey wheat dough!
