Verdict: Our expert take on Pizza Zone N Grill
Food (7.6 out of 10)
mentioned by 88% of the guests
When it comes to the food, it seems like this place really hits the spot! With a solid score of 7.6 and customer satisfaction at 75.2%, many folks are raving about the delicious pizza, especially the crispy crust and quality ingredients. Their burgers also get a lot of love, making for a truly satisfying meal, based on 112 positive remarks.
However, not everyone is completely won over. Out of 149 total comments, 22 did point out some areas for improvement. A few found the sauce too sweet or the crust unappealing, while others mentioned issues like soggy fries or food that tasted like microwave pizza.
It seems consistency might be a slight concern.

Frequently criticized
- serviceThe atmosphere was dingy and dirty, made worse by annoying fluorescent lighting. The service was equally poor, with two angry older men working the counter who had horrible attitudes. I felt they were dismissive, and one even called me 'ma'am, ' which was amusing given I look much younger.
- cashiercompletely ignored by the cashier who would not pay me any attention
- customer serviceLol, I've never experienced anything like it, but I knew my money would be better spent elsewhere. It's unfortunate to see such poor customer service at what could be a good restaurant. Perhaps it was just the night crew.

Value (5 out of 10)
mentioned by 29% of the guests
When it comes to value, this spot has some shining moments, especially for those seeking a late night cheap eat or a good deal on two slices of any combo. Many customers have found the prices to be fair and the overall value for money outstanding, with some even calling it ridiculously inexpensive. Despite these positive experiences, which account for 8 of the 25 opinions, the overall score for value sits at an average 5.
However, the picture isn't entirely rosy, as indicated by a poor 32% customer satisfaction for value. A significant number of people, 13 out of 25, have voiced concerns about being overcharged or facing incorrect charges, including unexpected fees for things like pizza box charge or even ranch. Some feel the price is simply too high for what you get, leading to a perception of poor value overall.

- priceAs this was the only place open during my first visit to the city, I decided to give it a try. I didn't question the fact that the price was $9 more than the menu price, assuming it was for tax and tip on a delivery order. When I began giving the lady my card number, she became upset, clearly having trouble understanding me.

Standard Pizza, Service Hiccup
I ordered a 16-inch cheese pizza, which was pretty standard and seemingly impossible to mess up. The service was prompt, especially considering I used Door Dash; the pizza was ready in 20 minutes or less and the pickup went smoothly. My only complaint is that when I asked for ranch, I was told I should have ordered it on the app.
While we weren't charged for the $2. 00 ranch, the "hand out" statement was noted. The pizza itself looked just like the advertised picture, smelled fresh, and was just cooked.
The cheese was cooked to a crisp and held together well. The sauce was very light, preventing the cheese from sticking to the crust. The dough tasted like any other dough.
Overall, I couldn't complain; this was better than trying to buy something from 6th and Mission pizzeria.
