Godfather's Pizza — Restaurant in Pekin

Godfathers at one time was the only place to dine for pizza in the area but that was decades ago. Surprised this one has survived over the years. Think it's been consistently open at the same location over the years. I dined here today to sample the buffet. Dinning here isn't for the upper crust and I'm sure not upper crust or desire to be. Right off the bat I was most impressed by the young lady behind the counter that waited on me. She was very informative, super personality, a real go getter. In fact all the employees were very dedicated. Plenty of different varieties of pizza and all of the other goodies that go with a buffet. They had chicken livers and for those that like them gizzards. Food was constantly brought out so nothing ran out. My only complaint was that the unsweetened ice tea tasted somewhat funky. I traded for Mello Yellow and it was fine. Place became busy and I have to assume that the buffet is popular, but there were other's that just ordered pizza. I'm glad I stopped in. Give them a crusty try!

For a lack of a better description I will only say that the eclectic spirits here are so obvious. Not the Godfathers of my days gone past. Very interesting...

Went for the lunch buffet (12:30p). To start, the lady at the register acted as if we were a bother. No smile or communication just told us the total and handed us cups. 3 ladies arrived a few minutes after us and they were treated the same after having to ring a bell for service. Most of the pizza on the buffet looked old and dried out, very little chicken, salad was wilted, cottage cheese was spoiled. I, along with 6 other customers sitting nearby all waited over 35 minutes before 1 fresh pizza was put out along with a tray of chicken. We did ask if more pizza was coming and the employee said “yeah in a minute.” After another 10 minutes and no more pizza, we decided to just leave. It’s sad to see that this place has went downhill so bad over the last...

I hate to give this rating because there pizza is Great! A bit $$ but great. However using DoorDash isn’t! I ordered a Combo pizza, dessert pizza, and 2 liter. Had it sent to my house for my husband because I was away. When I returned home and asked about the delivery I found that we only received a sausage pizza no 2liter no dessert pizza I called the store and they gave me a Credit for the next time I called a couple of days later couldn’t get a delivery there was nobody to deliver it called the following week they told me I had to spend at least five dollars and pay for the delivery again I ended up spending another $25 plus delivery. I don’t understand why I had to pay for the delivery when it was the delivery person that messed up the order...
