Zentropa - Cheney

Cool atmosphere, tasty menu, good beer, but pricey. Zentropa has cool decor, lighting, and is definitely aimed at the college and sporting crowd. It is split between bar and restaurant, and they have a good number of large tvs through out. They always have good beer choices on tap. Food wise, I've had their parmesan bread sticks, many pizzas, and salads, and I can say that all are very good. My favorite though is their calzones. I'm always impressed when a restaurant can make a consistently good calzone. Their biggest downfall is in their prices and service. It is pretty expensive and it seems that the last time I was there their prices had gone up. For that I tend to avoid this place for big meals. Their service is also less than spectacular. It almost seems like their staff never had any direction or training and is just winging it. They are not very attentive and on many visits, we've had to flag down our server to get something we've needed. Overall, Zentropa isn't bad, it's a good place to go if you're looking to go out and get pizza (if you're willing to spend the dollar).

I can never decide if it is the crust, sauce, or toppings that make a pizza. But after eating here tonight I gotta say their crust is perfect! Thin, but not cracker, it has some chewy, delicious depth with that brick oven flavor. And don't miss the wedgie appetizers especially because of the Pest Ranch dipping sauce, ah yum-o. Super nice waitress as well.

I remember when Zentropa was a movie theater in Cheney! This is a big step up. My dad and I came in here for a quick lunch. We both got lunch specials, I had a slice, a salad and a soda for $6.99. I am kicking myself now for not getting a beer they had on tap, No Li Mosh Pit (cherry sour) since I didn't see it anywhere else during my trip of eating and gallivanting. The pizza was pepperoni and nothing too special but it was good. No complaints. My dad said the crust was too thick for his preferences. I tend to like deep dish and this was a solid piece of pizza. Not too greasy, not too healthy, not too heavy or light. It was pretty Goldilocksy for me, it hit all the marks. The salad was fresh and unusual. House salad with mushrooms? It was good though. And they didn't have ranch, only pesto ranch which was strange but still good. I was feeling flexible. But no ranch? I'd def go back. My last few visits to Rocky Rococo's downtown were awful service and mediocre food so Zentropa fills a pizza void for me. I love me some Rosa's cheesebread but their pizza is lackluster for me. Zentropa made a perfect lunch you could def get on a 30 min lunch which isn't always easy to find. Hope this is a pattern and not a lucky strike. They had about 25 beers or so on tap and plenty of street parking. They take cards. I'm not sure if there's wifi and you could def grab lunch, even with a beer, under $10.

Pretty good pizza! It 's not cheap, but you get what you pay for this is the best, most artisan pizza you 're going to find in Cheney, and I felt it was worth the price. Tonite our party enjoyed an extra large half Combo, half Crumbles (comes with very large pieces of meatball) and everyone felt both halves were yummy. The pizza was cooked well, had a nice cracker type crust, great sauce and lots of nice toppings. I appreciated the delicious touch of ricotta cheese to the side with meatballs. The meatballs could have been a bit more interesting, I felt they were lacking spice and flavor, but I was very impressed with the way they stayed moist after being broiled in a pizza oven. I was also impressed with the really great service. Could not have asked for better! Their small but nice selection of draft beer was sure a refreshing sight; Cheney needs more of that! I suggest you try this place; you 'll love the beautiful, welcoming ambiance and I 'm sure the pizza will impress you. Their two huge wide screen tvs will make the sports fans happy. Parking might be a bit difficult on a busy night, but we found a spot down the street, wasn 't too much of a walk. They say they 'll have free wi fi access soon that 's a huge plus! I will be back to try one of those big salads and huge Stromboli I saw being served to another table, wow!

I didn't know this place existed until my parents came home with a box of their pizza tonight. Naturally, I snagged a slice of it for myself and it was delicious! I'm glad I now know of this place since I attend EWU during the school year. I would give it 5 stars if it wasn't as pricey. But I'll definitely be stopping in whenever I can.
