Verdict: Our expert take on Pizza Hut
Food (5.5 out of 10)
mentioned by 86% of the guests
Overall, the food here presents a bit of a mixed bag, with a score of 5.5 and customer satisfaction sitting at 46.8%. Based on 124 customer opinions, with 58 positive remarks almost perfectly balanced by 59 negative ones, many rave about the delicious Detroit-style and stuffed crust pizza, praising the quality, flavor, and perfectly cooked crust. The boneless wings also get shout-outs for being tasty and well-prepared.
However, it's not all perfect. Some customers encountered issues like dry or cold pizza, overbaked toppings, and disappointing cheese breadsticks. There are also complaints about soggy crusts, tasteless pepperoni, and incorrect orders, suggesting a lack of consistency in dishes like the Thin n Crispy pizza or even the basic crust.

- pizzaI prefer my pizza very light and doughy, and unlike other places that often fail to meet this request, they consistently deliver a nice light pizza. Their pizza is the best I’ve eaten because they truly listen to their customers! The food quality is excellent, and the service is attentive, ensuring my specific preferences are met.
- foodI enjoyed piping hot pizza, exactly the way I like it. The service was fast, the price was cheap, and the food was delicious. It was also very convenient.

- crustthe crust was soft and fluffy
- qualityThe delivery driver was also exceptionally kind, calling to arrange a meeting at the base gate, which was perfectly fine. Overall, this was the best pizza service and quality we've experienced in a long time. We will definitely be switching pizza shops!

Frequently criticized
- pizzaThere were hardly any toppings, the outer crust was hard, and the bottom dough was soggy, greasy, and not fully cooked. This was the worst pizza I've ever tried to eat, and I wish I could get a full refund. The quality of Pizza Hut's pizzas has really declined.
- cheeseMy experience at The Chicago Tavern was awful. The pizza had no sauce and little cheese, and the pepperoni was tasteless. It's disappointing that they don't even offer free packs of cheese and peppers.
- new pizzaNew pizza with stuffed crust and dipping sauce wasn't good
- pepperonislices with NO pepperoni
- sauceMy experience at The Chicago Tavern was awful. The pizza had no sauce and little cheese, and the pepperoni was tasteless. It's disappointing that they don't even offer free packs of cheese and peppers.
- toppingsThere was hardly any toppings
- wingsHowever, I'm at the point of wanting to pay extra at another pizza place for a correct order. On one occasion, I ordered pizza and wings, but only the pizza and ranch arrived, missing the wings. The time before that, my pizza was missing toppings.
- Cheese Sticksthere was a surprising lack of flavor and the overall bread tasted very bland
- Detroit style pizzaVery disappointed in Detroit style pizza
- Edge PizzaEdge Pizza, and it tasted like it was baked on a sheet of cardboard
If youre craving classic pizza favorites like Detroit-style or stuffed crust, you might find a delicious meal here. However, be prepared for potential inconsistencies in quality and accuracy, as some experiences fall short. Its a bit of a gamble, but the highs can be quite satisfying.

- forget itemsHowever, this specific Pizza Hut location frequently disappoints. They often get orders wrong or forget items. Last night, I ordered two pizzas and two orders of wings, but only received the pizzas and ranch, with no wings.
- managerShe then hung up on me.
So, should you go? Service here seems to be a bit of a roll of the dice; you might get a fantastic experience with quick, polite staff, or you could run into issues with order accuracy or delivery. If you're feeling lucky and value speed, it might be worth a try, but be prepared for potential hiccups.
Ambience (7.7 out of 10)
mentioned by 18% of the guests
When it comes to ambience, this spot really shines, boasting a 7.7 score and a solid 84.6% customer satisfaction! Based on 11 positive remarks out of 13 total, guests frequently praise the clean environment, fantastic atmosphere, and convenient location. Plus, the availability of outdoor seating is a definite crowd-pleaser.
However, theres one small point to consider. A single comment noted the lack of indoor seating, which might be a dealbreaker for some, especially during inclement weather. Its something to keep in mind if you prefer dining indoors.

Delicious Pizza and Wings!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, primarily due to their pizza and wings. I especially enjoyed the wings, often ordering them in buffalo sauce. They are consistently cooked to perfection and always hit the spot.
The food quality is excellent, as reflected in the 5-star rating.

Exceptional Service and Delicious Pizza!
Last night, I placed an online delivery order and realized my pizza was missing half the cheese, which was problematic as I had a vegetarian friend coming over. I called the restaurant, and the worker was incredibly kind. They offered to make me a new pizza since mine had already been started.
The delivery driver was also exceptionally kind, calling to arrange a meeting at the base gate, which was perfectly fine. Overall, this was the best pizza service and quality we've experienced in a long time. We will definitely be switching pizza shops!
