me and my husband went there for the first time last night. he wanted pizza and beer, but we were told they don't have their liquor license. we should have left right then, but unfortunately we stayed. the prices are too high (imo) so i ended up getting the meatball sandwich - cheapest thing on the menu at $8.50. it was not very good at all. and we noticed that their lunch buffet has gone up in price to $9.95!! Very unimpressed with this place and definitely won't be going back.

all i've ever heard was good things about that place, but i've never been...i wonder why they don't have a liquor license yet, they've been there quite awhile?

Their buffet is def worth 9.95. Was really priced too low before. Its not just pizza but menu quality items that would normally cost you 8 dollars itself. The pizza is very good here. 8.95 is expensive? Hell Popeyes will cost you more to eat at now.. Now sure what is up with the license though.

i know, i read alot of good things about it on here, that's why i didn't mind going to try it.

the owner was there and he was hounding us about giving him our email address so he could send out all these great coupons.........we gave him an email that we hardly ever use anymore.

8.95 must be for a personal size, just cheese. any time you add meat toppings it was like $1.25 more and veggie/cheese toppings were like $1.15 more. something like that. all i know is i was going to order a personal size with pepperoni, ground beef and roma tomatoes and it was going to cost me like $14. you can get 3 small pizzas at dominos for $12.

You can have 2 of the 3.

Quality, price, service. I'm sure the service and quality are comperable to dominos....

it's not 1980 anymore. you have to understand taht in order to keep the doors open, businesses have to make a profit. It's not about buying new houses and sports cars, it's about paying rent and utilities.

And this is a comparison?

You are exactly correct.

If you are complaining about the cost of eating out then you should just cook at home.

The chicken pesto white pizza there in large is 16 dollars or so and is one of the best pizzas I have had in this state. Dominos?? Seriously DOMINOS? Maybe you should just stick with CiCi's..

I went last week for the lunch buffet for the first time in a while. Here is my synopsis:

*Price: $9.95 plus tax. Please note here-THIS INCLUDES A DRINK! 10 bucks for a great lunch and drink is VERY reasonable.

*Food: On the buffet trays, they served chicken, pesto pasta, italian chili, meatballs, and some other kinda pasta. All very tasty.

3 pizzas out when I arrived. Then Johnny asked what kind I wanted, and he made me a pepperoni to order. Awesome.

I had an awesome experience. Also, don't order a sub at the best pizza place in town, what were you thinkin!

If he had a few more pizzas on his buffet it would be pefect. It has far more entrees than any other place. But its great that you get to try all the other items on the menu without having to pay for them alone.

BTW doesnt a buffet at Pizza Hut with a drink run about 8-9 dollars? I dont get how this is considered expensive. This isne CiCi quality.

Been twice and it was really good. The only thing that bugs me is the no liquer license. They have Abita neon signs in the windows. They have been saying they were going to get one since the first time I went in which I'm pretty sure is about a year ago, maybe longer. Maybe it's too tough to get one or too expensive? But to say it's bad and too expensive must mean you're a big fan of fast food.

I have had a beer a few times there that was less than a year ago. I thought they lost the license or something.. Or maybe they were caught selling without one which would explain alot.

huh???

the service sucked too. our waitress looked like she walked in off the streets. and she didn't know much about the menu. if she makes $20 a night, she is lucky.
