HI-RISE SCRUMPTIOUS PIZZA WORTH A DRIVE - Big Bend Business Has Sit Down Restaurant |
| (01/26/2001) |
| Hi-Rise's pizza is nearly always less expensive than the chain
outfits, but rest assured
the quality and taste is a real pleaser for pizza lovers. You can get
a big pepperoni
pizza on Thursdays for $6.99. The Big Bend business, whose name is
derived by being
built above the flood plain, was started about 1991 by the late Don
and Sally Whipkey,
who formerly ran the Grantsville Hotel. The Dawson's have operated the restaurant since 1995, recently remodeling it. The atmosphere is pleasant and quiet. "My dad work's in Ohio during the week. He's a silent partner, but he reads The Hur Herald every day. Even has his friends in Cleveland reading it," according to Tina Dawson.
 Hi-Rise has a huge menu
"We have the best pizza, and the best price" says, Tina Dawson
Besides the "glorious pizzas," Hi-Rise is a full-service restaurant catering to clientele in Calhoun, Ritchie and Wirt counties. "We can seat 35 people in our sit-down side. We have a really large, full-service menu of dinners, besides the dozens of specialty subs (fifteen in all), hotdogs, burgers, pastas and salads. People are really surprised about our offerings," she said. The restaurant has a great selection of appetizers, side orders, soups and a big favorite - soft ice cream, sundaes, hot fudge brownie surprise, milk shakes, Oreo parfaits, banana splits, floats and you name it. They even have a complete breakfast menu, including breakfast pizzas. The Hi-Rise probably has the biggest menu of any place in the county. "Friday and Saturday are the big pizza nights, but more people are coming out to our restaurant for dinner," Dawson said. Hi-Rise is regularly open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. (later on weekends). Until spring they will be closed on Monday.
