Yum Yum’s Pizzeria

I wanted to write a review because I had a bad experience and was a little more then just disappointed.
My aunt introduced this place to me even tho I’ve seen it for about 8 years I never tried it. We love the Tuesday special. I think it’s $ 10.99 for a large. And boy there large is huge.
We moved so we don’t live in delivering distance. Even tho I do not know if they offer delivery. We ordered a large pepperoni half green olive. When we got home it was only half green olive. It was late. Kids bed time and they needed to eat. The guy on the end who always seems to be on the phone was quite miserable sounding. Thought that’s all I said. People make mistakes he may have but that’s why in food business we repeat orders back. Said they won’t deliver but I can come get a new one. I said kids need to eat tho if I bring this back I’m going to have pieces missing and the adults can wait. He said he can also credit me. We decided to just get credited.
Over a month later we call and lo and behold the credit wasn’t under that number or three other numbers I knew it wouldn’t be under. Same miserable sounding guy. He wasn’t rude in anyway but definitely lets you feel that he doesn’t feel like dealing with you but still tried looking under different numbers for me. So a lady comes on. No biggie gives me the pizza. Assuming she was a manager. Now I had to write the bad to praise them. Most places would have told you that you are shit out of luck because we know how the world is. People lie scam and cheat. And they trusted in us and thank god. Because there pizza is so super yum yum lol
There dough is thicker. So don’t like that. I do. I mildly sweet perfectly thick sauce and when I say extra sauce they get what I mean and don’t leave me hanging. I just think places don’t get enough praise for fixing there mistakes people only focus on the bad and that’s it. Yes a crummy thing happened one time out of our ten times ordering from there. But that doesn’t mean there bad. Just an off day. I haven’t tried wings or such yet I did hear they were great as well but damn that pizza is good.

My go to neighborhood pizza joint that won’t leave a huge hole in your wallet for family pizza night like some of the other guys in the radius.
Thick soft dough, perfectly crispy, gooey cheese, little cup pepperoni and mildy Sweet sauce come together to make this a simple craveable buffalo style pie.
Delivery has been quick and courteous and if you have the chance to pick it up you’ll save on the extra delivery charge. I admire their unpretentious interior, I like to think they’re always hard at work on the pizza ovens.
Good daily specials, check thier menu or ask on the phone. Subs are decent too. Wings are standard fare. The garlic parm wings tip the scales in their favor. They’re excellent, usually. I say this because in the almost 10 years I’ve been ordering there I have had a couple batches woefully undercooked. I should wise up and just say extra crispy when I order.
Overall, always leaves a smile on our faces and full bellies during many Bills games to order from Yums

This place is a joke. I just order a simple delivery order this evening at 4:36. By 6:08 the order still hasn’t arrived. I called to find out what was going on. Turns out they were out of the wing flavor we ordered (seems like that should be info you should already know as you’re taking the order) and «tried» calling me back to see when else I wanted instead. He then claim the call wouldn’t go through so they just didn’t make our order. As I sat here and waited for an hour and a half. I called them, so clearly my phone is working just fine. I also did verify the number with him. He didn’t even offer to fix the situation. Obviously I canceled the order and called somewhere else. That’s not how you do business. With so many choices in the area, this is shameful.

I ordered a pizza and had it delivered i didnt mind that it took an hour and 20 min but when i opened the box my entire pizza was burned i called to complain and they told me i could come get a new pizza but they would not deliver me a new one if i could have drove to get it i wouldnt have paid for delivery needless to say it threw out the whole pizza. Im completely dissappointed and i would never go back.

If this were written backwards, it would be Muy Muy’s, which would mean «Very Very’s» in Spanish. That’s funny because I’ve been described as very very, more than a few times… «you’re very… I dunno… very… um. very very.» Very Very quite contrary, how does your garden grow. With upturned Pepperonis and Alimonies and Congealed Cheese all in a row.
So yes, congealed cheese is the order of the day. The funny thing is, whenever I have friends that rave about a Pizzeria I haven’t tried, I end up being underwhelmed. And whenever a place has virtually no friends loving it, I often end up loving it. Yum Yum’s is another example of that. It’s near the airport, and I’d tried to have a crack at it a few times but they never had slices. I finally gave it a shot, and to say it was disappointing would be an understatement.
Firstly, I didn’t like the slice much. It had the tiny little pepperonis on it and a brickload of cheese, but because it had been sitting around awhile (I think) the cheese had hardened and it was just not doing it for me. The saving grace would be if the slice was very generously heated up… she said she was going to do that for me, went away and disappeared, brought it back to me… I jumped in the car… took a bite… it was literally lukewarm (I’ve been having this problem lately). I had maybe 3 bites… not a fan… then gave it away to my partner in pizza crime, who took it home, heated it up, and enjoyed it immensely apparently, so if she was writing this review it would probably be a 5. But for me, definitely not one of my faves. I know slices are cheap but some places really care about giving a good slice to the people, and some places… well. Yes.
My apologies to all my friends that love this place for giving it an iffy review. I will go back on wing night (Wednesday) and try those since people rave about them. But in terms of the pizza, the slice anyway… it was very very. Mediocre. Very very large, but very very not doing it for me.
Edit: They get one bonus star for helping out the Ten Lives Club pet program, where I got Harley from. I love Harley so much…

Jesus Christ, I love the pizza here. I’m the weirdo that always gets the large with hot cherry peppers on it. No grease cup pepperoni for me, no siree.
I’ll admit that Buffalo pizza is usually not my thing. The dough is usually great but I don’t like the way Buffalo normally cooks it at low temp so it’s all cakey and golden instead of puffy and crisp. And it’s so normally overloaded with cheese and toppings so that the middle is soggy. Not usually my thing.
But omg yum yums. You make me believe. I almost died when you were closed during snowvember.
Here is why yum yums has the best buffalo style pizza.
1) crispy chewy dough. Still using that high gluten dough. Makes it substantial.
2) good ingredients. Sometimes these pizza places cheap out on the cheese. Not yum yums. So good. Also love the sauce here. Slightly sweet but not that fake surgery sweet — sweet like sundried tomato sweet or properly sautéed to bring out the natural sweetness sweet. It’s good stuff. Peppers have always been crispy instead of mealy and gross.
3) properly cooked. No sogginess, no drippiness. Just golden brown on the bottom and perfectly toasted cheese on the top.
I actually crave this place if I haven’t had it in a while.
The wings are also ok, but nothing to write home about. I feel like they just offer it because buffalo would explode of they didn’t.
Please never change yum yums.

If you are looking for a delicious pizza that won’t cost you a fortune in Cheektowaga, then Yum Yums is the place to go! Yum Yums is a great little pizzeria that is hidden on the corner of Maryvale Drive and Beach Road.
Recently, we moved up here and were quite impressed with this pizzeria. We ordered a sheet pizza (we have a very large family), with mushrooms and sausage. The pizza was covered from side to side with lots of ingredients. The sauce and dough are made fresh daily and you can definitely tell the difference! We will definitely be returning to this pizzeria in the future! :)

We haven’t ever had anything from Yum Yums other than the chicken finger pizza, but my husband finds it so addicting that he’s been put on a strict 6-​per-​year limit.
It’s sinfully delicious — and I really mean sinfully. The layer of cheese alone is ³⁄₈ inch thick, add blue cheese dressing in place of the red sauce and a bunch of wonderfully greasy chucks of crispy chicken fingers dressed in the best hot sauce in the world — I don’t need to even know what else is on the menu!
–1 star because our last pizza took an astonishing 45 minutes for pick up. But then I added the star back because that pizza was delicious.
