★★★★★Truly incredible pizza! I had them at a friend's party and had to keep going back for more slices. Super high quality ingredients, professional service, beautiful setup, and overall taste/texture. I can't remember if I've ever had a better pizza but this is definitely the best I've had in a long time. Highly recommend.
★★★★★Just had Pizzeria Henderson cater the UVA Swim Team's graduation party this past weekend — WOW — so professional and AMAZING pizza!!! Truly the best pizza I have ever had and the guests and swim team LOVED it!!!! So easy to work with!!! Thank you!!!
★★★★★We hired James to lead a cooking class for my friend's bachelorette party and I can't recommend him enough! His class was super informative but still very fun. I've never seen anyone make fresh mozzarella before, which was such a cool experience! When it came to the pizzas themselves that night, truly one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Highly recommend James for your next pizza event!!
