Gunnison Pizza Company — Restaurant in Gunnison

The food was excellent, and the staff were doing the best they could under the circumstances, but the management/ownership is atrocious and inexcusable. I rarely write negative reviews and hate to do so for a small business, but quite frankly the seats are not safe; it’s a lawsuit waiting to happen. Most of the seating has you perched at the edge of a rickety plank that feels like it could give way any moment. There’s also a foot-sized hole in the deck with a nail sticking out it, and several others of varying sizes as well, one of which my friend with a cane fell into tonight; had she been injured she would’ve been well within her rights to sue for damages. It stopped sprinkling over an hour before we arrived (6:30, rush hour) and it took them twenty minutes to bring out a rag for us the customers to wipe down the wet outdoor seating. In fact, the tables were being bussed almost exclusively by kind customers at the bar as the location was appallingly understaffed. They also don’t warn you that they charge several extra dollars if you pay with a card than with cash, and won’t refund you. They claimed they have a warning posted on the door, but that doesn’t count when that door is always open and the sign sandwiched against the wall where it’s impossible to see unless you know to move the door to look at it. I deleted a paragraph of further detail on the almost non-existent service since they only had two people and one was only sixteen years old (SHE DESERVES A BETTER BOSS), but it’s not a good look on the manager if they can’t keep their business staffed. Pay your employees a thriving wage and hire more of them, or downsize: those are the only two ethical options for business owners in this country. (The attached photo is what they’re calling a chair. It’s so wobbly it’s only a matter of time before someone falls and...

Way overpriced, not worth the money. We ordered two pizzas (one 16” pepperoni and one 12” with onions peppers and olives) and a small salad, and I would have been fine paying $43 dollars for them if they hadn’t tasted like cheap pizza that I could have gotten from dominos for half the price. Also, a Caesar salad is NOT made of lettuce, fried tortilla chips and whole cherry tomatoes!!!!!!!!

update after owner responded to my review

The owner stated, “And as it says on our menu we do Caesar salads with Romain, cherry tomatoes, and tortilla strips, so not sure what it was you were expecting.” I have re-checked the online menu and it ONLY says Caesar Salad; NO description. So I was expecting a Caesar salad!!! Not lettuce, tomatoes and tortilla strips! And I also added up the price of the same meal from the dominos located in Gunnison. I admit two things after checking: 1. it’s not half the price but it’s still less expensive PLUS the salad from dominos is bigger and includes chicken, but it was STILL less expensive than this place and would have tasted the same if not better, and 2. The pizza from dominos was 2” smaller.

Why would the owners lie about the salad description when their own menu negates their position?? They could have easily changed the online menu description before responding to my review. Looks like they put as much effort into their lies as they put into their food. The owners of Gunnison Pizza Company have a few things in common with their products; dishonesty and weak sauce. However, I sincerely wish the best of luck to this company, especially if they’re going to continue to lie to the very customers who keep...

Let’s get into it…high priced pizza. It looks bland the one by the slice.. but if you order a “whole pizza” it looks a little more appealing (see photo).. $30 …so I guess pay that, and don’t get it by the slice.. the slices are in the warmer ready to grab and go..or the worker grabs it, and puts in on a medal plate with some tissue and you just sit down..but it’s edible, and taste okay. Floors need cleaning as does the rest of the place, and maybe some rearranging of the seating. It did have Torchy’s cups which made me think well at least they are trying, I don’t know. But the one guy who was working… and working the register.. was trying his best to make the food, check people out, and take the orders with a great attitude. There was another worker.. but he stayed out of site with the rap music blasting. I saw him from the long side view. There are areas of this establishment that need improvement clearly, but overall it is...
