21 reviews for Domino's Pizza
I'm officially a sheep.
I can say with 100% confidence that I only got this meal because of the commercials. Sure, I had more than my share of domino's back in college (3 for 5's at the frat house baby!! wooo!), but i've grown, evolved, and most importantly I live above a REAL pizza place, so I thought those days were done.
"all new crust... real ingredients... new taste" I'm such a fool. We ended up trying the 2 medium 2 toppings for 5.99 each deal and got a cheesy bread to wash it down.
I mean... just like in college, it just doesn't taste as good as I expected it to. Given how "receptive they are to critisizm" (or so says their new ad) i wish i could describe where this pizza lacked, but it's just hard to decide.
I guess it's like ordering a burger from mcdonalds and wondering why they couldn't make it medium rare... Oh well, lesson learned.
Therservice is the same but the pizza is different and a bitr better than before, more garlic in the crust.

This place earns it's stars for reliability. How many times have I ordered from here and had my… Read more »
We decided to be lazy and order from domino's today. After waiting for an hour for our order to come we were asked to sign a blank piece of paper (which we would have to provide) by the delivery person because he forgot to bring the receipt (ordered and payed online). After telling the delivery person that we could not -no- would not sign a blank piece of paper and that he would have to go back and bring us the receipt to sign, he started yelling and said that he would not do that because he they were busy and that we could not have our food if we didn't sign the blank paper. We gave him the food back and called the manager as he left. The manager apologized and said the delivery person would bring our order and the receipt back. It's been 20 minutes since then and I have no intention to eat cold domino's food. This was one of the worst experiences we had with a restaurant and in no way will we ever order food from here, EVER.
So there I am sitting at Cairo Nights. It's late. I've been drinking. A group to our left offers us some of their pizza and my group accepts enthusiastically.
After two bites all of us were drooling over what a fantastic combination pizza we were consuming. Much debate whether over it was Irving's or Victor's pizza ensued.
I'll give you one guess where it was actually from.
on-time (less than 15') and pretty good!
Love the website app that shows progress.
Ordered delivery from the website today with their twofer Tuesday Special (Code: "2XTues28") that gives you one free large pizza when you buy any large pizza. I must say, their website is off the hook. It is very detailed to help you keep your patience. I knew that Oliver was putting my toppings on at 7:02pm, Jorge put it in the oven at 7:08 and Hiemiahehj was out on the delivery route at 7:20.
This is perfect for the impatient (like me) wondering the question: where the fuck is my pizza RIGHT NOW!?!?!?
My doorman is an idiot and called me when some Chinese food delivery guy was here, made the domino's guy wait, etc etc etc....
Good system, but truthfully, I paid $24 for TWO pizzas with a two for one special. It might just be more worth it to support the local pizza place since they have delivery specials that are about the same price without that low quality Domino's pizza.
Of the large pizza chains, Domino's is one of my favorites. Their deals are good and it is pretty cheap.
I would like to say that it does take a while to get a delivery. Last time I ordered, 40 min.
Also, do not order online! When I compared the prices, it became clear that there is a hidden online ordering fee that is mentioned no where on the site (even in the FAQS).
Wow...I never thought I would write a 4 star review for a pizza place, especially a chain pizza place but my god what an amazing experience today I had with dominos.
Ok so my manager wants pizza for a meeting. He needs it here fast and warns order now cause it will take a while. I hurridly log into Dominos website looking for a location and find that the location nearest me does online orders. Do I dare chance it? Yes. I quickly place an order using their online system which I have never used before, and frankly it blows my mind how easy and wonderful this system is. I simply sit there in awe of the whole thing as it literally is track how my pizzas are being made and delivered, from prep to delivery.
I ordered it at 11am and the pizza delivery man called my door in less than 15 minutes. I am floored! Pizza was warm and toasty and just what you would expect from Dominos. Now if that isn't good service I don't know what it is. I only took off one star because of dominos pizza not being 100% the best. I probably should forgive them of that. But overall I was impressed and the driver used the call box as I asked too. 4 for now, if they do it again this well. i'll give them 5.
So, this is based on two separate visits with these guys.
Visit one: I placed an order for carry-out; went in and found a manager and a crew member counting their tills on the front counter. This is normally a bad idea, but especially given the trash that hangs out in front of this store. It's asking for a robbery. But, hey, it's not MY store, so why should I care? I then waited for five (yes, five) minutes at the counter with no acknowledgment from the manager or crew member, and when I spoke up and said "Hi, I'm here to pick up an order-" I was cut off and told to wait until they were done. Figuring it was a fluke, I ordered again...
Visit two: I picked up my rather large order since I was feeding friends and more, got home and discovered that a good 1/4 of a pizza was severely burned. Not just that: the burned parts had been hacked away and someone tried to cover up the portions with what smelled like powdered oregano. (No, it was not that other thing that smells like oregano, much to my party's chagrin.) I called the store twice and was hung up on twice. To top it all off, I was overcharged by what seems like $15.00 with no way to check since my order was miraculously deleted by their systems... after the fact. But hey, at least I didn't get ignored for five minutes this last time!!
And that's it: this last time will simply be my last time with this location. I guess you get what you pay for when it comes to this world. Low prices for low-quality customer service and lower-quality food. Yay!
I decided to review this place because i need to finish my gin and tonic before i leave the house for the afternoon and i have a few minutes i have to kill.
This same kind of lackluster effort is direct retribution for the half-assed monstrosity that arrived at my door yesterday.
Now i realize many of my reviews have to do with ranch dressing and the intense emotions it stirs up in me and i'm sorry guys, this one is no different.
I suppose its my own fault for trying that new Crispy Melt pizza-like "thing" (i couldnt come up with a better word for it, really). It was like someone put Oscar Meyer bologna and Prego between 2 slices of cardboard and threw it in the oven to harden it.
Nast.
So anyhow, i am glad i had enough foresight to ask for ranch...i was gonna need it. The issue here is that when i asked for it she had to retotal my order which went from like $19 to $23. I shit you not.
They have a million of those tiny little white ranch buckets lying around in boxes underneath the urinals in the employee washrooms! Just grab a few and toss 'em in!
Shit.
They're acting like God himself churned the cream to make it.
Well, of course i paid for it. What was i supposed to do? And thank god i did or else i am sure that garbage they delivered would have lacerated my esophagus on the way down had the ranch not been there to buffer those jagged edges.
Craptastic.
Fuck. Yes.
Friday afternoon I passed out at 5pm and woke up at 1:45am...hungry of course. I call up Domino's and learn that they are open until 3am on Friday and Saturday! And they will deliver!
Did I say Fuck. Yes. ???
I normally stay away from chain pizza, but you know what? I decided to try some Dominos tonight.
The pizza is decent at best, but it really is a good value for your buck. They have a special now where you can order a large with any toppings for 9.99.
A works pizza from anywhere else will probably run you about $20. The 555 deal is pretty good too.
we ordered the 3 single topping of your choice med pizza. they delivered it to you for $20.78. the delivery came as promise between 30-45minutes. the food was hot and the driver was very nice. do try them they really try to
push customer service.
Look, it's Domino's and I've never been a fan of Domino's ever since the "Avoid the Noid" commercials that, quite frankly, made NO sense whatsoever because no one ever really satisfactorily defined a "Noid".
However, this Domino's just blew my mind! It delivered piping hot, FRESH, pizza with delicious plentiful toppings, a not too puffy and doughy crust,and with a cheapy price tag to Koko Cocktails down the way in less than 20 minutes. I was amazed to find the tomato sauce wasn't too sweet or overly oreganoed as this is a common complaint amongst cheap fast food pizza chains. I actually would have failed miserably at a blind taste test of pizzas and chosen this as a higher end Nizario's, Napoli's or Victor's pizza rather than a lowly Domino's chain. Have my tastebuds suffered withdrawal since moving back from Hawaii?!
I think not. I think that this Domino's was actually a great representation of it's chain and one that I would be happen to drunkenly patronize again (though I was NOT drunk this time!) even though my friend was the drunk one. We had two medium pizzas: pepperoni and mushroom and sausage and olive and they came with a free 2 liter of Coke. Serious deal at less than $30 with coupon. We fed hella people at the bar since there was serious sliceage and generous toppings. Hey, I'm ALL about the higher end pizzas and don't even really LIKE pizza as a rule. In fact, tonight I was pretty pizza and carbed out but damn...this really set my slightly tipsy friends straight enough to go home and me well enough to feel like my newly skinny ass (I lost a lot of weight in the trauma of breaking up and moving back...not that I didn't need to lol) got the necessary calories for today. Suffice to say that I am impressed! I should be...I gobbled down three pieces...ouchie my tummy is too full lol!
Need I say more?
HORRIBLE. SERVICE. the delivery guy forgot half of my order and then vehemently told me i had not ORDERED any of it. he flat out told me that i was already causing him "A LOT OF TROUBLE" because i called the store 5 minutes after i ordered online, realizing that i ordered for pickup, not delivery. the manager didn't seem to think i caused them any trouble...five minutes doesn't quite seem to be...trouble causing. so as soon as he harassed me, i threw my hands up and said, "whatever, i'm sure you're right." i get inside, check my order, and it turns out he has shorted me on about $10 worth of stuff from my order. i call the shop, and he comes back with the missing food...thirty minutes later. fucking ridiculous. if it wasn't for the way he had treated me the first visit, i wouldn't be so upset. but he flat out told lectured me on the fact that he had not made any mistakes, and then told me that i was basically making his life really difficult from the get go, and he was in a hurry! such bad service.
If it weren't for Yelp making me give it at least 1 Star, this place would get ZERO, that's right, ZERO stars. I have had one bad experience after another with these guys. The pizza is great, IF you ever receive it after they tell you it will be a 30-min. delivery, then you call back after 1hour and they tell you "the driver is on his way", then you call back after another half hour and they can not locate your order... WTF???? have you ever heard of a COMPUTER system where you LOG orders when people call???? I know, what a fantastically high-tech concept but then maybe people would get the pizza they ordered. I am finally writing this review because i just had the same experience at a Domino's in Phoenix, (COULDN'T BELIEVE IT), so this seems to be a widespread problem. I will never again give Domino's my business.
worst pizza ever!
we ordered 3 pizzas for $15.
they tried to charge us for toppings we didn't order, and/or that were supposed to be included. they also tried to charge us for delivery, which they did not inform us about before hand.
the pizza was DISGUSTING. how can pizza be so bad, but it was.
they supposedly have a satisifcation guarentee, so we emailed and tried to get our money back. the manager just said "sorry you didn't like it, sorry we cannot seel pizzas for less than $5 each."
what a total jerk.
avoid this trap.
THANK F'ING GOD!! open till 3 am on the weekends, super speedy service (took 25 min from ordering to delivery) and pure ambrosia. admittedly, i have a fondness of it from my college days when the local palo alto dominos would save us from near starvation after late night drinking or studying (more likely the former) binges. now, its a rare occasion i allow myself to inhale 3 pieces of veggie + pepperoni pizza (new veggie comes with spinach, red peppers, feta, and mozzarella - fancy and yummy) after a late night excursion but we went to kells and hell, that place is awful (I'm pretty sure every woman in there set back the women's movement about 20 years - did Gloria Steinem teach them nothing?) so i deserved me some dominoes. even better, we saved a slice for the morning after to eat cold to ward off any evil hangover effects. completely effective.
For starters let's keep the quality of this "pizza" off of the table during this review. Why? Because I personally want to kick the shit out of the ass munchers who work at this joint (Geary/Larkin), but instead of violence I'm gonna just vent here. Sincerity level? I fantasize that the Drawn Together let's take a shit on the pizza episode was written about one of the drivers from this Domino's. Can I assign a negative rating?
For cheap big chain pizza restaurants, this one was perfect; perfect dough, well spread ingredients, fast pick up. Domino's is one of the few chains that actually accepts all of their nationally promoted coupons and specials-unlike pizza hut or Round Table that usually tack on hidden charges other than sales taxes, or refuse to even honor the deals. Not sure about consistency though-could be the cook's best day.
