also a new acronym I found last night "hmu" totally using it!
What do you think?

I feel like I would have to punch you in the face first sundance. Remember that mizzou ticket? I bet we could be friends after that though.
You understand a lot more of the inside jokes. And you can post your own inside jokes and then everyone who doesn't get them gets really jealous.

Here's the deal with The Scheme; the food is decent but the service is not good. I wish I had a nickel for every time we decide to "give it one more chance" and are treated rudely by the staff.
The atmosphere in the restaurant is nice, dim lights, rustic decor and a really nice looking bar. The pizza, I feel is overrated, even for a town the size of Salina. It's hella expensive, takes forever to get out to you after you order and just really nothing special once it arrives. Don't get me wrong, for a town like Salina where your options are limited as to where you can get non-chain pizza, it's certainly edible-just not particularly memorable. The honey they provide for the crust is for sure the best part.
My real problem, and the reason I give the place two stars, is that I have never eaten in a restaurant and felt more unwelcome than I have here. You would think that being a mom and pop place they would take special care to make folks feel welcome, but that is just not the case. They are typically very busy on the weekends, but good luck finding out when they are open, as they basically open and close whenever they feel like it. This makes it frustrating to get a reservation or make plans to go there.
The most recent example: the last time my husband and his friends ate there (after making reservations for 8 PM) the owners/employees brought them the check right after the food was brought out (approx. 8:45) and basically started staring them all down and made them very uncomfortable because the waitstaff wanted to go home.
The icing on the cake was when my husband and his friends were having a political discussion (same night, in normal voices, not loud or disruptive at all) and the waitress decided to come over and insult them and basically call them idiots. During a private conversation! Unreal.
I hate to give this place a negative review, and I am a major supporter of local businesses wherever I go, but Scheme, you MUST improve your customer service ( or at least make phenomenal pizza to make the abuse worthwhile) to get our business back.
This is a weird, weird restaurant. The pizza is great - really outstanding, excellent crust, appropriate amount of cheese and toppings. Salad was average to good. But wow, the staff think they are THE coolest people to walk the earth and you are lucky to be able to enter their establishment and buy thier food. Obviously, this is an insiders' club - we have only carried out, and every time (3 I think) ALL the tables have "reserved" signs on them. Once I had to wait 10 minutes or so at about 6:15; no one came to sit at any of the spots. The guy ahead of me apparently was a "cool kid", he knew the cashier's name; she was super-sweet and chatty to him. She was not rude to me, but all business, frowning and with this DMV-like "I'm itching for you to bitch at me" look on her face. The pizza is indeed very expensive, they don't take credit cards and their hours are very limited. In my opinion, it's worth it once in a while to get a great pizza in Salina, but I don't think I'd actually eat IN the place. Great pizza, very unusual attitude/atmosphere.

:thumbsup: Scheme Canadian bacon is the best. However you can only really go at lunch and only if you call your order in 45 min in advance. Owner is a flake and the staff follows.
Take it from a native Salina person (me). Scheme pizza sucks.
