The Pizza Man of Hooksett — Restaurant in Hooksett

If I could give negative rating I absolutely would. First thing wrong was the attitudes of every girl at the counter. We asked for takeout as the bar area was full and the dining area is small and directly in front of the door which it was a cold night(not there fault ) But we couldn’t find menus, they said” go look on the tables”, which had no menus on them. I said there aren’t any, she said “than they’re in the stand”. (The host stand no staff was at) it came across very dismissive and as if I should’ve known better, which we’ve just moved to hooksett and only been here twice. Than we get a small Hawaiian pizza and chicken parm dinner to go. We ask for dessert list she points at the case and said “there’s mousse things in there” we ask what kind, she doesn’t know. Ok maybe she’s new 🤷‍♀️

But the real kicker is that about 45 minutes after eating my fiancée is saying it’s so hot in here and pouring sweat. And continues to be violently sick for the next six hours. She got food poisoning. Yes it is definitely from this restaurant, it is the only thing we ate all day as we work in a restaurant ourselves and had just gotten out of work and showered and were famished. We should’ve eaten at work like usual but after four years somewhere we like to switch it up when we’re exhausted and just want to get home. Since I was fine I assume it’s the ham on the pizza as pork has a short shelf life and they’re only open 4 or 5 days a week. I’m literally getting a tattoo a few days later and this is what really pisses me off! The lady next to me getting hers is talking about how she works there and I interject with my story, she ADMITS she’s had food poisoning twice since working there!!! And I said do u not throw pork away when you’re closed that many consecutive days? And she said no food costs are high!!!! You are KNOWINGLY trying to pinch Pennie’s and cut corners but not properly disposing of items like PORK when you’re closed 2-3 days in a row!!?? I’ve been in hospitality for 19 years. That is completely unacceptable. We will never step foot in this place again, idc if we have to go to concord or Manchester. I can’t imagine what the rest of that kitchen or...

We've been here a few times before and enjoyed getting a pizza. This Friday, we decided to go to Pizzaman for dinner since I had been craving pizza all week. It was busy and we sat at a high top in the bar area. We ordered two side salads and a buffalo chicken pizza. When we ordered the pizza, our waitress asked if we wanted marinara sauce or buffalo and we said buffalo. Fast forward 30 minutes, we finally got our side salads that were warm. Then, the pizza came promptly after. The pizza did not look like a buffalo chicken pizza. It was a regular cheese pizza with fried chicken on top. When we pointed out that we asked for buffalo sauce and not marinara, our waitress told us that the system did not have an option for buffalo therefore she just put in the notes section to mix in buffalo sauce with the marinara. Our waitress was plain lazy because there were three plans of action she could've taken: In the note area of the POS system, she could've wrote "hold the marinara and just do all buffalo" Go into the kitchen and ask them if they can substitute the marinara for buffalo. Come to our table, tell us and we could decide if we wanted another pizza.

It was not a good experience and I will not be going back. I understand when a restaurant is busy, but our waitress was lazy and blaming it on...

My gripe would be the owner more than the food. I ordered the chicken finger meal and I was less than satisfied. When I advised the server that both my niece I didn't finish our meals because they weren't my favorite - they were very fatty and overcooked - the server approached the owner to let her know. The owner then came table side and accused me and my family of asking for a free meal. When I explained we just told the server how we felt and were not looking for a free meal she proceeded to tell us that her prduct was great despite how we felt and basically yelled at us simply because we were not in love with her food. I am glad nobody else was in the restaurant because it was embarassing. I was simply stating my truth - they were barely ok chicken fingers, I have had waaaaaay better! Apparently the restaurant is known for their chicken fingers and apparently you are not allowed to complain or even make a negative statement or you get yelled at. We were also told not to go back to the restaraunt. Not sure if she just had a bad day or if she is always like this, but she was RUDE and I feel bad for her employees! Avoid this place if you can. It is sad because I did...
