You know when your friend has told you about a place for years and then you try it and you’re like, ‘don’t get it’? That’s this joint. We had an order of bread sticks, with a little cup of gas station nacho cheese for dipping. The sticks were OK. The bread, in fact, tasted like when you were a kid and your folks made white toast with margarine and put garlic salt on it and called it garlic bread. I’m sure they have their devotees and it has some old school appeal, but meh. We also had two thin crust medium pizzas. The size of a medium is small 12″ and I thought next time I would get a large minimum. One of the pies was half pepperoni and half sausage, the other a «Delight». They put the pepperoni under the cheese which is not my personal preference because it always makes me think, where’s the pepa! The Delight is a specialty order and comes with sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms, onions and green pepper. The flavor was good, but the green pepper was a bit overwhelming to me and drowned out the other more subtle flavors of the mushroom. The sauce is slightly sweet and you can taste the freshness of the mozzarella and to their credit both pies were well cooked. They deliver too, which is a bonus. Overall, it’s A-OK, if you are looking for decent pizza, this is that place.

I’m a pizza lover, and Monical’s pizza is at the top of my list! The food is always great when I order from this location, but the older man who helps at the register is NOT friendly. I believe this is the owner, so you can imagine my disappointment.

2÷20÷2015 I called and placed an order for a family pleaser. Half sausage, half pepperoni with extra cheese. I also ordered a 10 pack of breadsticks with four cheese sauces. The gentleman read my order back and had somehow gotten mushrooms on there(crazy busy Friday night with people shouting things in the background, confusion was understandable). I corrected him and asked him to make it well done also. I was given the total and a wait time of 45 to 50 minutes for delivery. Again, understandable since it was Friday night and they were super busy. An hour and thirty minutes later I get a call asking if I have my pizza yet and I say no. She apologizes and says it will be out very soon and that she was taking the cost of my breadsticks off the order. Fifteen minutes later, my pizza is at the door. I paid, got it on the table, and opened it up to discover that it had been covered in mushrooms. I immediately called back and made them aware of the mistake and they said they would fix it and get the pizza I ordered out to me as quickly as possible. Within five minutes I recieved a call from the manager stating that he didn’t want to be rude, but that he heard the gentleman confirm my order. I said yes I did confirm my order but, I also confirmed that my pizza was made witout mushrooms. That it was not my mistake that his employee messed up my order. He apologized and the pizza I initially ordered was at my door within 10 minutes. After being treated poorly as a regular customer, I will no longer be patronizing their establishment.

Just, ew. Dirty, not well taken care of. Apples on pizza, apparently were from some other planet because these were, lord I dont even have an accurate description of them. Even my husband who eats EVERYTHING, pushed his plate away after two bites. The dogs liked it though. Ew. Never again.

This is the *original* Monical’s — and one of Tolono’s few claims to fame in my opinion :) This location definitely isn’t as new and modern as the one in Urbana or on Mattis, but it has character! And the pizza tastes just the same as the other locations, probably even better! After moving to Chicago recently, I find myself often wanting Monical’s thin crust with the red dressing… since I’m surrounded by deep-dish fanatics. Breadsticks with nacho cheese are a must, as well. Mmm, might have to go home to eat, err I mean visit, soon.
