If you’re on a fast, dieting, vegan, or wanting a healthier option for a pizza like we were you may be disappointed. We went solely for the vegan options. So I can’t speak on any other options other than the price of the pizzas. We wanted to love this place soo much. We ordered the Plant Based Chicken Tikka Pizza and the Combination Pizza. Be cautious of the spice level for the Tikka Pizza. We had a level 2 or 3, but spice is all we tasted no other flavor components for the listed ingredients.
The combination was a huge disappointment. It seems like the frozen toppings were just placed onto the pizza and put in the oven. I’m not sure if they should have been cooked a little first or thawed, but all toppings were soo dry and not tasty at all.
Price: The plant based pizzas on the hand held menus in the restaurant say $4.00 extra. I’m completely fine with paying extra for plant based items as this is a normality with eating out. We also used Cauliflower crust on both pizzas. That cost was/ is supposed to be reflected in the plant based cost. There is only one size for Cauliflower crust which is also normal. - no worries there as this is also a normality with eating out.
What I didn’t appreciate was the transparency with the cost. Our total order came to $49.15. For the life of me I could not figure out where this number came from when totaling out our order. I looked at their online pricing and on different delivery applications. I found discrepancies and loopholes in costs when comparing their prices on all sites. I did bring this to their attention. I physically showed him what I found on each site and he was able to see where my confusion came from (assuming he’s the owner or relative of the owner).
I’m not sure how long it’s been that way, but I hope it’s been updated. I’m only mentioning this because many others have also mentioned this price discrepancy within their reviews long before our visit, and it seems to be the same. He was very receptive to my concern and the amounts I showed him. If they didn’t know before, they have definitely been informed now.
Service: It seems like a nice family owned, family-friendly business. It’s a small retail suite with fun music and a few tvs. The service was good although our order was to go.
Overall: I wouldn’t recommend it for a vegan option. We didn’t try the other options, but I would still consider double checking what you are paying for as that’s a major concern. He also mentioned they would get new menus with updated pricing and make sure their prices are reflected on every site. For the sake of customer retention and transparency I hope he did this. I’m giving them at least two stars for the service and in hopes they updated all prices on...
Read moreWe tried this place based on the variety/types of vegan options, as well as a few reviews from the Happy Cow app; however, we were pretty disappointed. We paid a little over $60 for two medium vegan pizzas and an order of vegan cheese sticks. The pizzas were a base price of $18.99 each. They did have a special to get 2 medium specialty pizzas for $27.99; however, not all of their specialty pizzas were available for this option. Also, we added jalapenos (x2) for one of the pieces, at a cost of an additional $4.00, but there weren't any jalapenos on that pizza. I will admit that one is partly on us, as we did not check the pizzas until we got home (we live in Anna and drove to McKinney, 121 and Alma, to pick up these pizzas). Their website did not give any actual size information other than small/medium/large; however, we expected their medium pizzas to be roughly the same size as a “fast food” pizza place (e.g. Pizza Hut, Papa John’s, etc.). Much to our disappointment, their medium prices (base price of $18.99) were quite small…the same size box as the cheese sticks we ordered. All of that plus the fact that while one of the pizzas was “okay”, the other one was really not. We ordered one advertised as a “Tandoori BBQ” pizza, so I was expecting a flavor similar to Indian Tandoori BBQ…nope, the BBQ sauce/flavoring was a typical “American” BBQ sauce, which is not my fave. Other than that, there just really wasn’t much flavor (this is also the pizza that was missing the added $4 jalapenos).
Between missing items, price point for size, quality not the best, etc., I can’t recommend eating here. Major bummer too…Indian is our fave cuisine so we thought it would be a home run finding an Indian pizza fusion place that also has a good amount of vegan options. Unfortunately, we will not...
Read moreIf you’re craving a pizza experience that blends bold flavors with a creative twist, Pizza Twist in McKinney is a must-visit! Their fusion of Indian spices with classic pizza ingredients creates a unique culinary adventure. I highly recommend trying the Paneer Tikka Masala Pizza twist, it’s a delightful combination of creamy tikka sauce, masala paneer, and fresh vegetables on a perfectly baked crust. The Achari Chicken Pizzatwist is another standout, offering a spicy and tangy kick that’s both satisfying and memorable.
Beyond the pizzas, their menu includes a variety of options to cater to all tastes, including vegan and gluten-free choices. The service is friendly, and the atmosphere is welcoming, making it a great spot for both casual dining and takeout.
Whether you’re a fan of traditional flavors or looking to try something new, Pizza Twist offers a delicious and innovative dining experience. Highly...
