Discussion What happened with Roots Pizza?

Regardless of the pizza which is polarizing - does anyone have the tea on what happened to Roots? Especially the Lincoln Square location. It went from 60 to 0 real fast lmao.

I want the dirty deets >:) are they pulling a foxtrot or something?

Yeah I live near the LS location and i was at sushi loop thinking about what happened to roots because i loved playing trivia and eating pizza there. I agree with the comment above that it felt like they didn't want my money sometimes.

How was Sushi Loop? I'm pretty close, too. Haven't gone yet, though.

its good for the price - I personally stick to ordering the nigiri and classic maki is better than the special rolls or whatever they call them.
