Dragon Pizza appears to be doing just fine after Dave Portnoy hit the small business in Somerville, Massachusetts, with a lowly 6.4 rating out of 10.
The Barstool Sports founder, who reviewed the pizza place on his “One Bite” series last week, got into a screaming match with the unnamed owner while filming the segment — and posted the video on Twitter, which has 16.3 million views.
Dragon Pizza shared in an Instagram post that it had to close its doors on Tuesday to prepare for the week after customers completely sold out the place.
“We are completely sold out and need a day to prepare for the rest of the week,” Dragon Pizza wrote. “Thank you to our amazing staff and supporters. Couldn’t do it without y’all.”
Another post featured an employee with a sign that read “sold out.”
“Another Day! SOLD OUT,” Dragon Pizza wrote in the caption. “Thank you so much keep supporting us!
“Sorry for those guests show up today and have to wait too long team did there best to make everyone happy!”
The business has also seen an influx of good reviews.
That came after Dragon Pizza said “trolls were attacking every aspect of us” in a separate post on Saturday.
“Thanks. To this team. To our community,” Dragon Pizza wrote. “To LOVE over HATE in this unbelievable ugly situation of trolls attacking every aspect of us. We will persevere…I swear it so.”
Dragon Pizza limited the comments on their Instagram posts.
Despite the negative review from Portnoy, Dragon Pizza’s owner appears to be embracing his war with the outspoken Barstool boss.
Dragon Pizza shared a photo of the owner holding a paper that said “The Gospel” and wrote “David vs. Goliath” in the caption.
Portnoy reviewed a plain slice of Dragon Pizza on the sidewalk in front of the business.
After complaining that he was overpowered by the taste of parmesan, Portnoy said the pizza was a “floppy mess.”
At one point, the owner came out during the review and told Portnoy he didn’t appreciate the mogul “coming in a judging a business with one bite.”
That’s when Portnoy declared: “This pizza is trash” and gave it a 6.4 out of 10 rating.
The two eventually got into a heated back-and-forth and exchanged plenty of “f–k you” insults.
The owner referred to the Barstool founder as a “f–king b—h.”
“Just go f–k yourself and the whole f–king platform you’re on,” the owner said before threatening to call the police.
Portnoy went on to trash the business in the caption of his YouTube video.
“Dave went to Dragon Pizza and discovered the worst pizza shop owner in the history of reviews, and he and Dave got into a shouting match on the street,” it read.
