Food and Drink Domino's pizza revisited and review - Page 4

Mr. Laz · 01-06-2010, 01:49 PM

because i'm bored

lemme first say that i haven't had Domino's pizza in a long time because it pretty much sucked imo. Ketchup on cardboard etc. Then i saw a commercial for Domino's pizza that actually talks about listening to their customers and even mentioned the Ketchup reference so i was surprised and decided to try it again.

i ordered online ... the site wasn't great but it was decent. It was alot like the Pizza Hut site where they have coupons and allow you to customize your pizza etc. Not bad.

one thing i noticed if you completely customize your pizza is makes the price pretty expensive but if you modify an existing pizza you can get about the same pizza for a few bucks less ... kinda a glitch i think.

so i decided to go with the '2 medium pizzas w/2 toppings for $5.99 each' deal.

--------------------
my first pizza i decide to go away from my norm because they said their hand-tossed pizza had a new butter/garlic crust.

1. hand-tossed crust. 2-toppings were cheese and chicken.

i changed the american cheese to provolone and also change the tradition red meat sauce to white sauce ... for no extra charge btw.

my 2nd pizza was much more my norm

2. deep dished pizza(switching to deep dish added $1) with Italian sausage

i added extra sauce(no extra charge) and added hamburger(added $1) and sliced spicy sausage(added $1)

2nd pizza went from 5.99 to 8.99 with the changes.
-------------------------------------------------

order was easy and they even had a little order status update going. i don't know if it was real time or just a timing bullshit graphic program

but it keeps you occupied.

delivery was on time (20 minutes) and the order was filled correctly.

1st pizza - was decent, it was a weird taste because the white sauce was pretty much a traditional Italian Alfredo sauce. Along with the butter garlic crust basically made the pizza end up being Chicken Alfredo on garlic toast.

But it wasn't bad.

2nd pizza - was pretty dam good. the extra sauce made it spicy and the italian sausage was quite good. i was surprised

overall result - it's not restaurant level pizza but it's just a good as Pizza Hut or Godfather's. Competition is good so it's nice to have Domino's back in the running to keep the other fast food pizza places in line.

New Domino's pizza doesn't look anything like old Domino's pizza

Same here. If it's good enough for CP....then it's good enough for me.

All these midwestern chains are pure garbage - Papa Johns, Pizza Hut, Dominos, etc. They are too doughy and overpriced.

I'm thankful we finally got a "new york style" pizzeria here to give these dumps a run for their money.

Round Table is by far the best delivery/pickup type pizza. It ain't cheap tho

My favorite pizza in KS would have to be Sarpino's Pizzeria. They're pizza is really good. My personal favorite there is the

Santa Fé Chicken pizza: Chipotle ranch sauce, chicken breast, green & red peppers, onions, parmesan cheese, bacon, cheddar & mozzarella cheese. I've usually had them add Jalapenos on it as well for some more kick.

I also have generally like Imo's Pizza as well.

All this pizza talk being said it's a shame I happen to live in North Dakota and there is nowhere near to actually get a decent slice from. Just your normal crappy papa johns, pizza hut, caesars, and dominoes. Might have to try the new dominoes pizza to see how it ranks against the other crap choices.

My favorite is Wheat State Pizza. All their pizzas are good, but the Hawk 'n Cheese and Pa's Barnyard are my favorites.

Those do sound pretty good.

Frazod · 01-06-2010, 03:37 PM

While I think those commercials are a good marketing idea, there's no way in hell Abominos will improve enough to compete with other pizza places up here. In Chicago, pretty much all the pizza places are great. They have Pizza Hut and Dominos and Papa John's, but even a local mom-and-pop pizza place is going to blow any of those out of the water. And when you start talking about the heavy hitters up here, like Gino's, Giordanos and Lou Malnatis, there's just no point. Anybody who orders national chain pizza in this area is out of their ****ing mind.

Are you talking about AJs? How is it?
