Shy Simon's Pizza — Restaurant in Council

Stopped by this little hole in the wall pizza joint around 230pm today. The lady behind the counter was very nice and I asked what she liked in the menu. She told me she liked the taco pizza and the triple s. I asked her about the Alfredo pizza to which she said she didn't like the sun dried tomatoes on it. I asked for no artichoke, she confirmed my request, I asked to replace the sun dried tomatoes with regular tomatoes, and she confirmed my request again. I asked for it to go as I was traveling but figured I would eat a slice or two in the restaurant. She brings it out, I open the box and it's got artichokes all over it. I say "it's got artichokes on it" looking disappointed. She makes the excuse of getting distracted with subbing the sun dried tomatoes for the regular tomatoes and forgot to take off the artichokes. Turns around and goes back in the kitchen without a sorry or offer to remake the pizza, or anything and just disappeared. So I sat there picking off what must have been 4-6oz of artichoke hearts, tried the pizza that was completely flavorless, Alfredo? Not sure but didn't taste like it nor the garlic Alfredo it claimed to be, chicken that was dry and tasteless, that I paid $19 total with a tip included up front. I don't mind if a place makes a mistake that's fine, they offer to fix, and normally I'll say it's fine and live with it. But to not offer any resolution? Horrible customer service. At least offer something, if I say it's fine after that, that's on me, but to turn around and never address it again, pathetic. I ended up tossing the...

I’ve been here exactly 4 times in the last few years. Once on a long trip around Idaho. Again just for the sandwich and to pick up a vehicle nearby. Two years later I went an hour out of my way twice on the way to and from McCall from Boise. Why?

It’s a bit of a story. Our van broke down about 10 minutes south a few years ago. We got a ride here to sit and wait for the van to cool off. I remember it like yesterday, because on that day, I had the worlds best pastrami sandwich. The rest of my family had other stuff that was all very good, and we had a couple pretty cold beers too. But that Pastrami Sandwich was ridiculous. So much so we drove from Boise a few weeks later. We were picking up a vehicle nearby but it was the sandwich I went for.

Two years later planning a long trip, we took that same route out of the way just to stop by again. On the way back too. We’re taking the same trip again and there was no question if we were going the long way. I MUST HAVE THAT SANDWICH AGAIN.

The service is solid, their patrons are nice...

A wonderful, delicious lll, lovely pizza shop in the little town of Council Idaho. The food is high quality, well prepared, and priced right. The menu options offer pre-made combinations that will make your mouth water, or you can customize your pizza however you like.

Our party had individuals of many tastes so we ended up "splitting" 2 medium pizzas with all four people picking what combination or custom creation went on thier very own half.

I highly recommend trying the Alfred sauce, it's creamy and delicious and with the chicken it's fantastic. Ultimately everything tastes delicious.

They also now serve hotwings, which was a great surprise to discover, as we hadn't passed by this little town in some time. In addition to this they now offer prepared pizza to take and bake at home. This is a great option if you live far away from town but still want a freshly cooked hot pizza when...
