The Pizza Joint

WHYYYYYYYY? Why did you close? I now know what divorce feels like. You provided me crappy but delicious pokey sticks all through college and my post-​college years. I need you back in my life, baby. Please come back to me.

It’s not that great, certainly won’t blow you away or make you pick it over a pizza chain (Pizza Hut, Papa John’s, etc.). Very greasy food. The kitchen looked clean (you can see all of it from the dining area) but the staff didn’t exercise good food hygiene while they were working. Moving boxes and touching surfaces between pizza prepping is a put-​off for me and gross.
Just about everything on my pizza was average except the sauce. The best way I can describe it as is being soupy, tasting like marina sauce you get from a bread stick container after the sauce has gone cold; It was bad. Speaking of bread sticks, they’re pathetically cheap here. It qualifies as dough shaped into sticks with seasoning dumped on it rather than bread sticks. A few of them it seems they forgot to season. Go to another pizza place, there’s tons around here.

I was impressed with this pizza. It’s pan pizza but it was well done. Someone ordered the pizza joint for an event, but this place must slide under the radar. The crust, cheese, topping, and sauce is good quality and this delivery place is a solid choice. I recommend this to those on OSU campus. Better than Adriaticos.

Quick and inexpensive pizza. The people are always nice. It is more than serviceable pizza in a pinch. I usually do a 1-​topping carry out special and bring it to my local bar. It seems to do mostly take out, but there is plenty of seating (6 tables, 4 chairs each).

Ordered a pizza and it was a half hour late, the guy on the phone lied about the driver being in an accident, and the driver made racial slurs once he did arrive. Never again.

I just moved into the area, i tried the pizza joint and it was really good for a campus pizza joint. I will have it delivered in the future.

I am writing this review solely based on their Pokey Sticks. They are UNREAL. Cheesy, greasy, gooey goodness. As a college student, I didn’t experience pokey sticks until my senior year and I completely regret not trying them sooner. Their pizza is pretty average, but they have some awesome deals if you order through
. I probably wouldn’t order anything else from their menu, but the pokey sticks are good enough to warrant this 5 star rating.

Ordered 10 wings (mild) and cheese sticks. The cheese sticks were soggy and kind of cold. The wings were covered in sauce that seemed to be the hot and not the mild. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy hot food, but these were just not very good. They were cold as well. I agree with another poster, this is not anyway near Gumby’s quality. I would definetly not recommend this joint.

This used to be Gumby’s but it doesn’t seem fair to lump their pre– and post-​change reviews, so I’m adding them. I hope there’s not some other protocol I should have followed…
I called in for an order and the friendly person who took my order said it would be 20 – 25 minutes. I got there at the 23 minute mark, and my order was ready (and clearly freshly so, not having sat around for long at all).
Pizza was very good and *very* well priced. Most definitely among the least greasy pizza I’ve ever seen. This is not a gourmet pizza place, so don’t expect that, but for a cheap pizza, it kicks the crap out of the big chains.
I will say that my pizza did not have very much sauce on it at all, which would usually be a big negative for me. However, considering I ordered the Cheese Steak pizza, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt this time, and assume it was a conscious choice on the business’ part to skimp on sauce for that specific Specialty Pizza.
