If you're in the market for an infuriatingly simple order to be botched not once but twice, Hungry Howie's Pizza is your go-to destination! My recent encounters with this establishment’s so-called "service" were an exercise in frustration and disbelief.
I ordered bone-in original chicken wings—a seemingly straightforward request that any competent establishment should be able to handle. The result? A spectacular display of culinary confusion.
Round One: The Buffalo Debacle Instead of delivering the wings as ordered, they generously decided I would enjoy buffalo sauce wings. A mistake, sure. Accidents happen, right? But wait, there’s more!
Round Two: BBQ Blunder Learning nothing from their prior failure, they delivered BBQ sauce wings on my second attempt. Clearly, this team treats ticket accuracy as a whimsical suggestion rather than a core responsibility.
To their credit, they did recook the wings on both occasions after I pointed out their glaring incompetence. But the real question remains: How hard is it to read and execute a simple order correctly the first time? This isn’t quantum physics; it’s basic food service. If I wanted the wrong order followed by a reluctant fix, I could have gone to any random gas station snack counter and saved myself the trouble.
Final Thoughts Hungry Howie’s, you’ve turned a simple order into a case study on why attention to detail matters. Your ability to consistently disappoint is, frankly, impressive. Two strikes, and I’m out. If anyone else values their time, patience, or ability to enjoy a meal as they ordered it, I suggest steering clear of this circus of...
Read moreWorst, most condescending service ever. Ordered an italian sub on the app and given choice of lettuce and tomato on the side or “No Thanks “, lettuce on side, tomato on side or finally no lettuce or tomato. One would think that by checking “No Thanks” that you wanted them on the sub. Obviously if you wanted neither you would check the no lettuce and tomato option. Since when has anyone ordered a sub anywhere in this country and everything is on the side?? Got home and no Italian dressing (included with an Italian sub ..duh!! ) Called the store and was told we ordered it wrong and they would only let us come back and get an Italian dressing but we were more than welcome to pay for another sub or pay for the lettuce and tomato. Went back up to the store (15 minutes away) and politely asked the employee if she would remake it or give me a refund with a response that I could pay for another one and no refund. I politely gave them back their product and will contest the charge on my Visa. The last three visits to this place have been horrible with disgusting product and service. To think I loved it for my first visits when we came to the area to visit my daughter that we ate here every trip. Not anymore. I am done with this place. It’s no different than all the other lousy Hungry Howie restaurants in Detroit with products no different than the five dollar Little Caesars hot and ready but three times the cost. Good luck people cause I’m definitely done with this establishment. The only way this stays open is because of the limited restaurant choices in this small town. Maybe that is their business...
Read moreI'm a Delivery Driver here, so I probably eat more Hungry Howie's food than the average guy. I probably see a lot more behind the counter than the average guy, as well. I see how business comes in unpredictible highs & lows, often to extremes, and seemingly unfathomable at times. In October, I suffered a central serous chorioretinopathy, caused by stress, and since then, I've been doing my best to return to the level of skill that I had previously achieved. It's not like me to wake up in the morning and get in my car to go to work, only to find a bag of dipping sauces that should've went to a customer the night before, but it's happened, and I'm sorry for that. I received a BFA with 18 honors in 2016, only to be denied by my native industry, because my BFA was issued by a non-acredited "predatory" college. I've been living with my parents since then (age 36, I turn 39 today), and giving them "rent" money to pay off the personal loan they took to keep me in student housing, so I could stay in college. Meanwhile, I make so little money per year that I qualify for $0 payments for the $60,000 that I had to take in student loans just to stay in this "for-profit" college. Please forgive me if I don't always hold a bag of dipping sauces like a golden chalice. However, I could not have been hired by a better company since college. We are a team of highly skilled individuals and we do everything we possibly can to bring smiles to people's faces. I love the people I work with, I love my customers and I take...
