Cici’s Pizza

Friendly service, clean dining area, hot food… good job, Cici’s. Our family of 4 ate here for $ 28 and change — including soft drinks. For unlimited pizza of various flavors, salad bar, drinks AND dessert, this price is hard to beat. The pizza was hot, and they did a great job keeping the buffet stocked (we all know how annoying it can be to have an empty buffet and have to wait for them to make more). Everything tasted good, too! If you like ooey-​gooey style cinnamon rolls, this is the spot. Not a place to count calories, though! ;-)

Our first time to this location was on a Tuesday night
With a Family of 4.‍So we purchased 4 buffets .the time was around 6:45pm this place was not full that’s good so you don’t have to wait to much for pizza. But for my surprise that’s not what I was expecting… in the buffet salad area was full and clean, nice dressing, great condiments completely full. The pizza area was looking nice and clean… great looking pizzas butttttttt here comes the bad experience: pizza is my favorite item so I went ahead to serve my self 5 slices of pepperoni Hawaiian pizza… Pepperoni with jalapeños and supreme. None of those items were good all of them were flavorless you could not even taste the salsa marinara on it the only good item there was the garlic bread. My wife was really disappointed with all the food except with the salad my kids request bbq pizza because they love the sauce at least they ate something
Capitol plaza Cici’s is better in flavor

For $ 6, the quality of this buffet is incredibly high! I took my sister and her four year old, and they loved the cheesy bread, cheese pizza and brownies. I loved the spinach pizza, pepperoni, and cinnamon dessert.
We didn’t make specific pizza requests (we’re fairly easy to please), but I did see a «Cici’s Pro» order a BBQ pizza which was delivered directly to his table. The person making the pizzas was very friendly, and if we’d wanted something specific I would have felt very comfortable asking.
Pros: Great for kids. Great price. Good quality. Delicious food.
Cons: Some of the pizzas had been sitting out for a little too long and gotten a bit hard.

I love this Cici’s Pizza!
Pros:
— Very friendly cashiers and cooks who greet you, etc… While I was getting my third bowl of soup tonight, one of the cooks told me they’d have fresh soup in about a minute. (That’s unnecessary kindness, especially for a chain store.)
— You can ask them to cook a type of pizza if it’s not in the buffet
— Wide variety of 20 or so pizzas with unique flavors
— Fresh and extensive salad bar
— The cherry tomatoes in the salad bar are very sweet
— Hot chicken noodle soup
— Garlic cheese bread is tasty
— Dessert pizzas (cinnamon rolls, fudge brownies, etc… that my coworker loves but I never get)
— Clean inside
— Very cheap at only $ 5.99 per adult buffet (Back when I was in middle school, it was only $ 2.99.)
— Nice atmosphere inside – it’s not chaotic like the Mueller Cici’s.
— A couple of video or arcade games for kids to play at.
— TVs showing sports games
Cons:
— Wish they had smaller tables for people eating alone. I feel guilty taking up a whole 4-​person table.
— Post-​buffet calories will require running a marathon to burn off.

It’s kind of scary that a place can afford to offer a buffet for only $ 6 (where do they get ingredients that cheap), but somehow they do. It certainly doesn’t look or taste low quality. And they’re always happy to make custom pizzas for my vegetarian family.
Once we found sausage in the pasta sauce which had previously always been marinara, but we inquired and the owner said that that was a mistake for that one day only.
Anyway, my family likes it, and all the other customers always seem to be enjoying themselves, so there you go.

Not really what we were expecting.
The commercials stated $ 5 in June for the buffet.
The woman told us no. So we still payed then as she’s handing the card back proceeds to inform us they do that only one time when someone aasks them…
umm. Well it was my FIRST time there?
Anyway the garlic bread was the best thing there.
Sodas were good but tiny glasses. Atmosphere was children running around, loud and… uncomfortable.
Oh well, maybe another location who honors company deals would be better.

In town on business. Decided to try the CiCi’s closest to my meeting. It is one of the cleanest and neatest shops I’ve been in. It has the best salad bar, including ingredients not found elsewhere. Good variety of pizza. Impressive!

Gets a bad rap, but I’ve been going to Cici’s for almost 20 years and I’ve always liked it. I even feel that it has gotten better over the years. Of course the highlight is the price, but even though there are other good pizza buffets in Austin, I don’t feel that any of them are that much better. Also, there are a few (Gattis) that are much worse.

they need more food that is all

Their pizzas are not that good I especially do not like the Cheeseburger Pizza who puts ketchup on pizza and pickles but i will say this it is cheap and the manager is nice. and they do offer refills however if you want to take a drink for the ride it will cost you 0.50 cents that is riddiculous since you have to pay 5.49 + 1.79 for a drink that is a rip off to charge for a to go cup when most places are free!

Never been to a Cici’s before. My sister told me years ago how good they were when she visited one out of State. I have eaten at buffet restaurants back home (Like Izzy’s Pizza) and they were not nearly as good as this place. They are cheap and have pretty good food. There are not a lot of choices to choose from as far as items available (mostly pizza). The things they do have are pretty darned good though. I loved the salad and the dressings were not bad either (usually dressings suck at places like this). The pizza is pretty good and has a lot more toppings than Gatti’s. The location of this particular Cici’s is not exactly in the «best» part of town, but it was still very enjoyable. Everyone who worked there was VERY polite and helpful.

I love all the Cici’s in town, especially this one and the one in Capital Plaza. Why? Lots of reasons. First of all, I love seeing all the little black and Hispanic kids eating here. And the buffet is priced right and the pizza certainly good enough, and you can special order (we always order pepperoni, onion, and jalapeño, and they bring it hot and steaming right to your table. And let’s face it: their target audience isn’t exactly the arugula crowd). Salad’s good, too. And the staff, especially the managers, are always very genuinely kind and helpful and obviously working hard, and especially kind to their employees, I think. Love the place. Of course, most people I know think that CiCi’s is beneath them, but they’re definitely missing out! LOVE the place!

One of the better CiCi’s in Austin. Salad bar has alfalfa sprouts! Hot wings are available for extra cost. Prices keep creeping up. Minimum charge for credit/​debit cards. this location also has a family night on fridays. in a strip mall so easy to drive past.

Cici’s pizza is bad so I wasn’t expecting much. But they did have good service.

So this Cici’s is in a part of Austin, that although only one exit away from me, seems to be slightly more hardcore and rough around the edges. That being said, I will willingly enter this area of town for the CiCi’s pizza buffet.
The owner is smart. This Cici’s used to be seriously ghetto. Dark and dingy etc. Now it is really pretty. Completely remodeled, big tables, light, televisions. There are some games for the kids to play. All of the staff are friendly and helpful. The food, as always is good. Tons of pizza, pasta, salad and dessert. Not too shabby. I’m still doing the low carb thing, and they will make me a pizza without the crust. Hell yeah! And something about the salad bar and that Italian dressing. And hey. Its like 5 bucks, with drink. Oh how i love me some Cici’s buffets…
