- foodThank you so much Pizza Hut for your patience on the phone with me taking my order, especially on this 2023 New Year's Eve. The food came hot and fresh, perfectly cooked and so delicious. Most people don't have high expectations for fast food on a night like tonight.
- pizzaThe pizza was taste with exactly I order
- hotFast, hot and ready on time
- EverythingEverything was absolutely perfect.
- Hawaiana with baconthe hawaiana I like it with bacon it was just mouthwatering
- PERSONAL PAN PIZZAPERSONAL PAN PIZZA!!! How hard could that be right??
- Pizza Meltstheir new Pizza Melts absolutely killed it
- TV pizzathe tv one looks expectacular
- bread sticksthe bread sticks were great
- breadsticksEven the ranch dip was reminiscent of the early 90s. While the location could improve its fryer temperatures for boneless wings and the pizza still needs work, the overall experience with the boneless wings, breadsticks, and fries was a solid 8/10.
Frequently criticized
- pizzaMy experience was disappointing. The pizza was cold, and the delivery driver did not follow the contactless delivery instructions. Additionally, the phone number provided for contact was constantly playing ads, making it impossible to reach anyone.
- foodMy experience was extremely negative. The food arrived an hour late, was cold, and tasted like urine. The service was rated a 1, and the food quality was also rated a 1.
- cheeseMy experience with the mushrooms stuffed crust was not good. The cheese was burnt and the pizza itself was like rubber. However, the other items I ordered were good.
- apple piesapple pies I ordered.......OMG!!! They WERE MUSH!!!
- breadsticksthe breadsticks were soggy
- friesI HAVE NEVER! I got home with our food, and my order, the fries were VERY cold and limp as a wet noodle. My cheesesticks were cold and looked VERY old.
- ingredientsThe ingredients were all piled in the middle
- pizzaspizzas are over cooked, cooled
- 2 Liter drinkdid not receive my 2 Liter drink that came with the deal
- New pizzakind of disappointed, Even when pizza hut has been one of our occasional choices, at this location it was extra tomato sauce -hence a little sweet-
So, whats the verdict on the food? While it can hit the mark with hot, fresh pizza, be prepared for a bit of a gamble. If youre craving classic pan pizza and don't mind the risk of a less-than-perfect order, it might be worth a try, but consistency seems to be a real challenge here.

- too many peopleit just brings too many people
The ambience here is a bit of a mixed bag. While some appreciate the cleanliness and location, others find the overall atmosphere lacking due to exterior lighting issues or uncomfortable crowds. If you're sensitive to these potential drawbacks, you might want to consider other options, but if not, it could still be worth a visit.
Value (2.8 out of 10)
mentioned by 7% of the guests
When it comes to value, theres a small glimmer of hope, with one customer feeling they got the best deal for their money. This positive sentiment, though rare among 6 opinions, suggests that finding a best deal is possible. However, the overall score for value is a poor 2.8, indicating a tough road ahead.
However, the majority of diners found value to be a significant issue. Many were frustrated by unexpected charges, like being asked to pay extra for Parmesan cheese or facing a card charge for online orders. Others felt they paid more for a smaller pizza or that promotions like $2 Tuesdays were a bad idea', leading to a generally poor customer satisfaction of 16.7%.

If youre looking for clear, straightforward value, this might not be your best bet. Be prepared for potential extra charges, especially for things like Parmesan, and scrutinize promotions carefully. While a best deal' might occasionally pop up, overall, value seems to be a consistent pain point here.

Terrible Experience, Never Again!
I received an email about Pizza Hut deals before 5 pm. I usually order from the Chickasaw location, but today, Google suggested the Lee Vista location was closer. Starving, I went there because it was closer.
I WILL NOT DO THAT AGAIN! My order was $42. 00 for 3 people, and I bought ALL SPECIALS!
When we got there, as I ordered carry-out, I sent my son in to pick up the food. He came out, and as ALWAYS, he had to look at all the food. IM SO HAPPY HE DID!
The large Pepperoni pizza was actually a Cheese only pizza. And the apple pies I ordered. OMG!
I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A PICTURE! But I was mad and grabbed them and went right back in. THEY WERE MUSH!
THERE WAS NO FORM TO THEM, IT LOOKED LIKE THERE WAS WATER IN THEM, AND IT BASICALLY WAS APPLE COBBLER! When I went in, the young man behind the counter asked how he could help. I said I sent my son in to pick up my order, and I ordered apple pies, and what is this?
I opened the container, and he laughed and said, "Oh, that's not good. Do you want me to throw them away? " I looked at him horrified and said YES!
I DON'T WANT THEM! He then informed me it would take the cook "a while" to make them, as if he was encouraging me to take the mush. I said that's fine, I'll wait.
He threw them away and went to get the cook. She didn't see a problem and had an attitude that she had to cook more. I don't believe she cooked the first order!
They looked DAYS old and like they had been used as a football! When the fryers timer went off, the cook was nowhere to be found, and the guy working the front desk had to take them out. He put them in the container and was sprinkling SOMETHING on them when she, the cook, appeared and told him, "This goes on it, " and pointed to something else up on the shelf.
He grabbed it down and sprinkled some of that too on my apple pies. He didn't shake them or anything to coat the pies while they were hot. He just handed them to me and said, "Here you go.
" WOW! I HAVE NEVER! I got home with our food, and my order, the fries were VERY cold and limp as a wet noodle.
My cheesesticks were cold and looked VERY old. The only thing I think they actually cooked fresh for my order was my PERSONAL PAN PIZZA! How hard could that be, right?
My son's large pizza had NO pepperoni, and my husband's chocolate brownie bites were raw. DO NOT ORDER HERE! THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THEIR FOOD!
It's only Thursday night. What do they do for rushes? Ugh.

Paid more for a smaller pizza
My experience at the restaurant was disappointing because I wasn't informed about the every day special. Consequently, I ended up paying more for a smaller pizza than I would have if I'd known about the special.

Disappointing $2 Tuesdays
My experience at this restaurant was impacted by their '$2 Tuesdays' promotion. I believe it's a bad idea because it brings too many people and makes it harder for the workers. While the service was good, the customers made the atmosphere uncomfortable due to their anger.

Excellent Service from Christy!
My experience at Pizza Hut was great, largely thanks to Christy, who helped me immensely with my order. She really made it happen. The quick and easy dislocation is fantastic.
I advise everyone to come and ask for Christie when you visit.
