Triple 8 Pizza — Restaurant in Regina

Well, I've ordered from them twice now, mostly because of their late hours making them the only option for a person such as myself, who is up late and might have a need for chicken fingers at 3AM. Now, I was disappointed the first time I ordered, but I don't like to judge a business off of just one negative experience (we all have bad days, after all), so I gave them a second chance.

I was disappointed for a second time. I ordered the 6 pc. chicken fingers deal (combo option 10) which comes with fries, caesar salad, and two 'garlic buns'. I ordered a side of gravy extra and my total came to just under $25. It all comes packaged in various cardboard and styrofoam boxes, stapled into a brown paper bag.

The food arrived warm enough. It wasn't hot by any means but it wasn't cold either. The fries were soggy, which is to be expected any time you order fries for delivery, but they are incredibly tasteless. You get a really large portion of fries, but they're terrible. I think the cardboard box they came in probably has more flavor. The chicken fingers are boxed in with the fries. The flavor is only marginally improved compared to the fries, and I found myself loading them up with salt so that my tongue could experience... something! They tasted like they were probably sitting around for a while before I had the misfortune of putting them in my mouth. I found myself wondering about the cleanliness of the kitchen they were cooked in, and how many corners they must have cut in order to present me with chicken so absent of taste.

The caesar salad was an abomination. We all know what caesar salad dressing is supposed to taste like, and this was just awful. It was really thick and, again, tasteless. The garlic buns are laughable, because there is nothing 'garlic' about them. They are simply large dinner buns with no sort of garlic spread packaged with them or put on them. The gravy is awful and tasteless as well.

You remember that movie called the Langoliers? They step off the plane and enter the airport in the past, after time has moved on. When they taste the food, the comment on how it has no flavor and everything is sort of... flat. Well, ordering from Triple 8 pizza is like assaulting your mouth with food that time (and taste)...

DO NOT ORDER PIZZA FROM TRIPLE 8 PIZZA! It's a RIP OFF, cold food, and bad pizza. If I could give them zero stars, I would!

My food arrived cold (wings and medium pizza). I ordered pineapple, bacon, and onion, but they put ham on instead.

Called, made the order, and they said 30 minutes. I arrive at their listed location on google 30 minutes later only to find the location is closed. I called, they put me on hold for 3 minutes. I call back, and ask for their location, and it's all the way across town. I say I want it delivered instead for $5, and they said it will be about 30 minutes.... I question whether the food will still be warm, and they say that it's just in the oven at the moment. By this time, it's long after the time they said the food would be ready. Anyways, I take their word for it. Tipped the delivery man 15% when he dropped off the food - he didn't have any insulating delivery bag with him... I open up the food and it's barely warm.

I call the pizza place again and say that the food is cold, and the final bill was $49 (includes the 15% tip). I comment that they convinced me the food would be warm, yet it was not. I asked for a 50% refund, and then they hung up without saying another word!

Aside from this, I can say that the pizza is no good (at least to my taste). It's like that Vern's pizza that you get at the gas station. Stacked with cheap mystery meat and soggy thick crust. I can't believe that I lost $49 on a tiny little pizza and 1.5lbs of wings (oh... and a chlorinated fountain pop...). In Guelph, Ontario, where I live, I can get 1lbs of wings, a bigger (and better) medium pizza, and cheese + garlic bread, plus 2 cans of pop, plus dipping sauce for $24 before tip... What a colossal rip off Triple 8 Pizza...

Me and a friend went to triple 8. We had decided why not check our luck only having $4 a piece at first the waitress was a little snooty not wanting to turn my rolled coins into toonies meanwhile my friend had gone to sit at VLT machine not noticing said sign which he did not see he went to the cashier and had told her his misfortune or whatever, she replied with "I'm sorry I can't do anything giving him a straw to stab it out"and although the place was not busy only three other patrons when we first arrived n 2 more which shortly after walk-in. both waitresses on duty appeared as though they hated their job a short blond and a taller brunette. anyways this was very terrible experience. we lost out on $4 which they refused to refind even Kim the owner refused to reimburse us the $4. Hey.. is it not the responsibility of the owner say default on VLT machine, say turn it off,wait send in to get fixed. instead of rudely telling paying customers that they can't do anything about it...not even a reimbursement, ya only $4 yet still the principal. Let's not forget we are very repetitive patrons for delivery and acquainted with whom this owner is. The restaurant which is open late not inviting and up keep is poor. Plus what ever else... Ok $4 you can think but those girls should actually brake proper serving classes me having proserve and had served over 500 patrons myself... Really believe we should get a refund or something... Im sure they are...
