This Pizza Hut isn't as bad as people make it out to be. I mean come on people it isn't fine dining now.
I came here for the lunch buffet, the food was pretty fresh and you have a selection of food to choose from. The staff was attentive and nice and had no issues with them.
My only complaint is the utensils and plates really sucked, but again as I mentioned its not fine dining.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Stotch ..Brunswick, NY4104Jan 5, 2008First to Review
A friend of a friend set me up on a blind date. When we spoke, we decided to go see a movie, and both agreed to have no expectations of hanging out after the movie (one of those security clauses you need to throw in there, just in case he's a douche bag--can I say "douche bag" here?).
We met at a movie theater, the first impressions were positive, his body language was transparent, and after the movie, we talked briefly. We both agreed the movie sucked, we both made fun of the moron in the parking lot who took out a little white cloth to wipe a spot off the side-view mirror of his otherwise immaculately-clean yellow Hummer, and we both nearly-simultaneously mentioned that we were a little hungry (hint-hint). Everything seemed to be going well! I knew the area a little better than he, so I asked what sort of food he'd like, and I'd tell him what was near. He smiled & said "I'm dying for a good slice of pizza," and asked if there was a Pizza Hut nearby. Loving his sarcastic sense of humor, and providing the obvious punch line to his obvious joke, I replied "I thought you said you wanted a 'good' slice of pizza?" Our magical moment was set ablaze when his adorable crooked smile was replaced by a blank stare. "Holy crap," I thought, "he was serious..." My immediate second thought was "Holy crap, is it worth it?" and then, "Holy crap, I'm going to Pizza Hut."
He followed me to (sigh) Pizza Hut, and as we walked from the parking lot to the restaurant, I realized his demeanor had changed. I think he was honestly insulted that I made fun of his love of Pizza Hut pizza. I think he thought I was a snob, or rude, or perhaps even a "douche bag" (see?! He should have stuck to the post-movie "no expectation" plan).
We made some uncomfortable small talk while waiting for our food, and the tension grew exponentially when I stopped eating after finishing just half of my one slice. He obviously wanted to move on to his second slice, but upon realizing I had stopped eating, he decided he, too, was finished. When the waitress asked if he wanted his uneaten slice wrapped to take home, he hesitated, then lied, saying "no thanks."
These are the types of situations I've learned to love; in the face of absolute absurdity, instead of shaking my head & withdrawing, I dive in, head first. I decided that if he wasn't going to have any fun, I was. While we waited for the bill, the weight of the profound silence began to pry open my clenched jaw, until I finally surrendered, saying: "I wonder if I can sue them for false advertising." "hmmm?" he replied. "Well," I said, "the menu says they sell 'pizza,' and there's no way that was pizza." (......silence......) "I mean, I can melt Saran Wrap on a chunk of cardboard, but I can't legally sell it as 'pizza,' can I?" "Very funny," he perjured, "Don't worry, I'll pay for it." "No," I said, "I'll pay; it's the least I can do." "hmmm?" he replied. I constructed a facade of sincerity, and said: "I've had fun at your expense, so I owe you."
And with that, he stood up, yanked his jacket off the back of the chair, and plodded out the door. "Damn it," I thought, "I should have asked if he had a coupon--now that would've been funny."
So, in a nutsack, my review of Pizza Hut is this: as a restaurant, it's at the bottom of the barrel (which is convenient, as that's the source of their ingredients), but I highly recommend it as a remarkably accurate triage device.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 4Oh no 0 - Robo T.Rough and Ready, CA66867421Jan 30, 2012
A-OK? you ask? Look, I dont need to justify my actions to you people. I was weak. I had a jonze for some stix.... Piping hot greasy breadstix from TeH hUt. I popped in shortly before closing but the dude was still cool about it. The stix were served hot and fresh (togo).
Am I a Pizza Hut fan (aka a "Jabba The Hut") ? Sorta. Sure there are far better pizza places in the world. However sometimes I'm in the mood for corporation conglomerate processed rubber food. Plus there's not a whole lot poppin' off in East Greenbush late on a weekend night.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 3Oh no 0 - John S.Rensselaer, NY01Jul 16, 2012
Bad customer service over the phone I was at work and I forgot the job number I called him from my cell phone But he kept asking for the job number so I said I'll hang up my cell phone and call you from my job number figured since it has the caller ID I called them from the job and he still asking for the job number told him dude I do not know the number you should have call ID and then He asked me for my cell phone number and he took the order last time ordering from them

Love Pizza Hut haven't been here in years. Got the meat lovers pizza and it was really good, like I remember. The place needs remodeling (painting, new table's, etc.) There was only one waitress on duty when we first got there which was fine because there wasn't too many people but then more came in so she was hopping. She was friendly and very efficient. The whole time we were there the phone kept ringing, some times without being answered. Besides needing a makeover I think they could use more help. More take out orders than eat-in, can see why
