I'm a sucker for a great thin-crust pizza, and Monical's delivers that remarkably well! Some places make the crust too thin, and the term cracker crust is appropriate. Monical's does it just right. It's crisp but not too crisp. I found myself fighting the urge for just one more piece.
I visited on my lunch break and met Matt Guthrie at the front. I explained that it was my first time and asked him to give me the rundown on what makes Monical's great.
Matt shared some of his favorites at Monical's and told me they have a great lunch buffet with all-you-can-eat pizza and a drink for 10.99 on the weekdays. He said they'd have a great variety of pizza for me to try. I'd just finished my workout next door at Exercise Inc, and I was starving, so the buffet was the perfect choice.
The pizza is Delicious. I could see why Monical's has been around for so many years. As I was leaving, I noticed they had options for you to take home a pizza to cook at your place, similar to Papa Murphy's. Britney George talked with me about what I liked and shared some of her favorites . I called a good friend of mine who loves pizza of all types and styles and asked if he wanted to make Monical's our next location for meetings coming up this week. He happily agreed. I look forward to...
Read moreI been coming for several years, it's usually always good, but I was there on Wednesday July 10th 2024,for the buffet, we got there around 11:30,there were 3 half pizzas, cool and dried out,it took about 15 minutes to get fresh ones added, that being said they were slaughtered bother attending customers, needless to say we were kinda forced to eat the same pizza, ( the ones that were less desired for the toppings ) after another 20 minutes or so ,we asked when they would be bringing out more pizza, we were told they were just put in the oven because they had a lot of pick up orders, well needless to say we left due to the limited time we have for lunch, we thought that it would be quicker to buffet, probably should take care of the Patrons that pay $ 13,each to eat ,rather than ones who take out...especially when you offer a buffet, it shouldn't get so low on pizza,as to have to wait that long...I like the food, but this time and a few others were not up to expectations,,,sorry to state the review but my 2 colleagues and I think it should be brought to attention...we just felt slightly that the food was not enough for the many Patrons that were there also waiting and murmuring about the...
Read moreOutstanding customer service in general which is saying a lot considering I believe she was a teenager. Celiac Disease friendly; I am pretty sensitive and have had their gf pizzas many times. They are the ONLY place I know of that not only cooks the GF pizzas in a different oven but has their own dedicated line of toppings JUST FOR their GF pizzas to eliminate cross contamination.
My ONLY complaint, which I'm guessing is not avoidable with it likely being due to the GF pizza "dough", but is that the bottom of the pizza just doesn't get crispy at ALL. Probably from the pan that I believe they set the pizza on to cook. If they were able to find a way to get the bottom crust crispy it would be the best GF pizza there is; and I have had hundreds of different gf pizzas.
So management/corporate, if you can find a way to get your GF pizzas crusts crispy on the bottom, or even just cooked to where it's not "floppy" you guys would have the best GF pizza in the industry
Tldr; great place, wonderful & well trained/knowledgeable staff (esp. w/GF options), good prices, BUT wish GF pizza crust was crispy on bottom. It's worth...
