Their customer service is rotted. We had a table of 6 on a reasonably quiet day. They brought out 5 dishes but forgetting 1. We enquired and she said she’ll check, however didn’t bother to come back or apologise or even give an update that they forgot. You could just see they were quickly making it in the kitchen. My 10 year old brother just had to sit there waiting for his souvlaki and by the time it came (20 mins from when we received ours) our food had gotten cold. I asked the manager why it took so long? Was it forgotten? Our dishes are now cold? She snapped and said “no you never asked for it”. Then she changed to “maybe I didn’t hear cos you were all talking at once”. I said to her but you asked him if he wanted chicken or lamb so you DID hear? She ignored me, walked back to her counter and in front of the entire restaurant yelled at me to stop being a “smart-alleck”. After this, I could hear her talking in their language to the manager? Or her husband? Dad? And then he starts arking up at us indirectly and in their language. I mean he was absolutely losing it, that the older bloke had to calm him down. I’ll never return lol and this was a staple restaurant for my family for the last 20 years. But let’s be realistic, it’s at no loss as the market now in Geelong is sooo competitive that Pizzaland will only hold their older customers! I can assure you new and young ones won’t be returning cos everything is so incredibly outdated and overpriced and there are sooo many better options out there now. Has their menu even changed in the last 20 years?...
Read moreI thought Pizzaland was going to be fun, exciting, and an experience...well it was an experience, but not a fun one. We ordered the kid's nuggets and chips. The nuggets were salty, the chips were the yellow cheap ones you can buy at NQR. The pizza was wood fired, but the crust was so thin and crunchy and toppings went to the edge of the dough you didn't get any extra benefit from the wood fired. The combo pizza, chicken pizza and ham pizzas we ordered either didn't have much cheese, or the sauce was so thin it got lost or sucked up into the toppings. All the meat was processed. The chicken was salty, cubed out of a pre packed package. The combo pizza was watery from the corn that was on the pizza. The ham on the combo pizza was salty and tasted like cheap ham shaving from Cole's deli. The pizza sauce was thin and broke down in the cooking process so it ended up being watery like tomato sauce consistently of salsa. On the plus side, the restaurant had a great ambiance, the staff were friendly, and the pizza crew were working really hard and fast. We hope the pizza improves...
Read moreHave been meaning to try this place for quite some time now and it lived up to expectations! Turkish and Italian cuisine makes for an interesting combination and somehow, it works!
My partner ordered the Mexican pizza. It was cooked nicely and worked very well with the different ingredients. It also had a generous amount of cheese on it. They were happy to swap out the olives for mushrooms, which was very accomodating.
I ordered the Chicken Shish Kebab, which was delicious. The serving size is quite generous and could probably be sufficient for two, or one very hungry individual. The dish is quite light and healthy-tasting and comes with a lovely salad and beans. I would highly recommend it!
The bistro has a retro vibe to it and has quite a large dining area. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a more casual dining-atmosphere. The facilities do have a bit of an old-feeling to them. I would love to see Pizzaland get some renovations. Nonetheless, the food was very good quality and I would suggest stopping by and trying it for yourself if you're...
