Mazzio’s Pizza & Wings — Restaurant in Searcy

A generous 3 on the food, because for others it may be a little better to them. The buffet just isn't like it used to be. They put out the plainest pizzas they can make. All are thin crust also, no deep dish, no stuffed crust, NOTHING SPECIAL. I don't like pork, but thats all there is all over the buffet. I special ordered a Taco pizza, minus the pork, add beef. It was very good. Most pizza places if you do that will bring it to your table so you know its ready & you get 1st chose how much your table of ppl want, but we had to keep a close eye on the buffet & after a bit we spotted it on the buffet. I ate 4 slices & a piece of choc. chip pizza. I couldn't bring myself to ask them to make the chicken pizza they have there since I already ask for a special made taco pizza. I bet the chicken pizza & the Supreme, which I myself would prefer the veggie Supreme are both good. My husband wouldn't use the water machine because a worker who was trying to tell my husband which 1 was the water, but apparently didn't know, though I fully believe my husband had it fig out on his own, stuck his hand up in the dispenser & said yeah I think this 1 is water. My husband is the chillest person about things, but the look on his face when he came to the table and tld me that, pure disgust. He said something ain't right around here. I knew what he meant, but I'm not saying what he meant on here. Just know its prob not the most sanitary of places & the pizza is mediocre. Maybe if you order a pizza instead of buffet...

This place makes me sad. Mazzio‘s has been one of my favorite restaurants since I was a kid. Their locations are closing one-by-one though and this is the only location in state left. I travel an hour to get it when I can. It’s been over a year since I last visit this location and I won’t be back. Went for lunch and had the buffet; not much there. There was however a 5 gallon bucket next to it on the ground and water leaking from the ceiling. I had to ask for a condiment to be replaced on the salad bar three times and from three different people. Then we were rushed to ‘checkout’ even though our to-go order wasn’t even ready. Of course that was wrong too. I have nothing good to say this...

About a month ago a friend brought up mazzios. He said he hadn't eaten there in years. Nor had I. So yesterday I decided to go there for spaghetti and meatballs. What a disappointment. Waited abt 30-40 minutes for them to microwave up the food. The service was such that didn't leave not even one dime for a tip. I set listening to the manager on duty discussing another party of folks wanting to write them a check. He sounded very unfriendly and abrasive. It was just not somewhere I will ever desire to go back. The $14 it cost to eat a bland watery small plate of.so called spaghetti could've been spent much wiser. But hey, on a positive note..the garlic...
