My critique with this place is solely on the quality of the product. The service, location, etc were all sufficient. Furthermore, I hope this business well. The critique is with the overall taste of the pizzas. They're simply mediocre. Granted, most of the food here in The Dalles is mediocre. However, this pizza establishment seems to be competing with Pizza Hut in terms of style, pricing, and options. This is fine, but as an independent pizza shop it would behoove you to improve upon the basic, "timeless" appeal of the desirable/savory, if cheap-tasting, Pizza Hut model of pizza. Otherwise I, and likely other patrons, will choose Pizza Hut as it is a known entity and at times cheaper. Finding ways to increase the overall flavor of the pizzas would be job 1 in my estimation.

I didn't even know they had a philly pizza so yeah as the restaurant they should be the ones to clarify since they have two Philly...
Read moreFirst time ordering from them. We're from Utah and was looking for a quick hot meal. Sahara Pizza was recommended by our Motel 6 desk person. We did the online ordering for some boneless wings and a medium build-it-yourself pizza. The wings were absolutely perfect, nice and hot, great spices. The pizza was also amazing, beautiful crust, crisp at the edge, soft and fully cooked everywhere else. The rest of the toppings were great, generous portions of all with a fantastic crisp all over on top. Simply the best pizza we've had in years. The delivery person was great also. The wings and pizza were piping hot when delivered and she was concerned it might burn us. I'm not sure when we'll be in The Dalles again, Sahara Pizza is on our "must...
