Pizza Plant Italian Pub - Williamsville — Restaurant in Town of Amherst

SHORT REVIEW: CHEAP QUALITY FOOD + BAD SERVICE + ABSURD PRICING = HORRIBLE restaurant. The MOST EXPENSIVE PIZZA you will ever purchase in the state of New York but then also sacrifices quality by using below par ingredients. In addition to TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE, this is also the ONLY pizza restaurant in New York that will charge you additional charges for the cheese, tomatoes, sauce and even the DOUGH which is used to make you the pizza that you already paid an initial $15.99 for. I work in the corporate park right behind Pizza Plant and (along with my family and friends) I will be sure to let my employees know of my experience at Pizza Plant so they do not become unsuspecting victims of Pizza Plant during lunch hour.

VEGANS & VEGETARIANS in the area: For good quality (NON-GMO ingredients), great tasting, very reasonable prices, and an overall good experience for a quick bite go to CHIPOTLE a 1/2 mile away for better options.

MUST READ: THIS MUST BE KNOWN TO UNSUSPECTING NEW COMERS:

$77 before tip for two pizzas and two fountain water drinks. SEE BELOW!!!!

LONG REVIEW: NOTE: I know this review is lengthy but it is a review based on fact rather than based upon a unique experience or circumstance and YOU MUST READ THIS OR YOU WILL REGRET YOUR EXPERIENCE AS I DID.

Pizza Plant is absurdly overpriced and the food quality is very well below any standards of good food quality! My finance and I enjoy exquisite dinners at restaurants including Hutchs; Remington Tavern; Tempo; San Marcos, and MANY other fine dining restaurants in the Buffalo area. I understand that Pizza Plant is an extremely casual pizza pub/restaurant, however I am sharing my past dining experiences to make light to the fact that my finance and I are accustomed to paying premium prices for premium quality food, however we are not used to paying ABOVE PREMIUM PRICES FOR BELOW PAR (POOR & CHEAP) QUALITY FOOD! Please continue to read to view my complete review below.

My first and final experience: My finance and I went to Pizza Plant on a whim because she saw a number of great reviews online for Pizza Plant and also learned that they have vegan options for her as well. After we patiently waited for twenty-minutes for a server to come to our table, we were finally greeted by a less than friendly server. We appreciated the fact that the restaurant host did come up to us and apologize for the long wait and stated that it was his fault because he forgot to notify the serving staff. We did not let this ruin our experience and quite simply, we did not think twice about the long wait and kindly told the host that it was ok and thanked him for coming over to us.... ...(MOVING ON)..The issue that warrants this HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE experience is this: our server's unpleasant attitude and stiff demeanor did not add to the experience but ultimately it was the OUTRAGEOUS PRICE FOR just TWO STUFFED PRICES (w/ fountain waters) for $77.00 before a tip that will have us NEVER returning to this restaurant PLUS we be sure to tell all our friends and family members to AVOID this restaurant/pub!!!!!!!!! We were shocked when we received the bill. The prices that Pizza Plant wants to charge for pizza is OUTRAGEOUSLY UNACCEPTABLE and you could NOT FIND these prices ($77 for 2 pizzas) at even the most prominent restaurants in Buffalo/Western New York! Quite frankly, Pizza Plant is a RIP OFF.

SEVENTY-SEVEN DOLLARS $$$ FOR TWO STUFFED PIZZAS!!!! Insane. Who does Pizza Plant think it is to charge these kinds of prices? These prices are completely unjustifiable, especially because the ingredients that they use are of low quality and cheap. (EVEN IF one went to Wegman's or Whole Foods or Trader Joe's and bought the most expensive and highest quality organic/non-gmo ingredients, these prices would still be completely irrational and absurd!).

WE THE CUSTOMERS NEED TO VOTE WITH OUR MONEY & NOT SPEND OUR MONEY HERE. DO NOT SUPPORT RESTAURANTS THAT TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR HARD...

Not sure what's happened with Pizza Plant because my experiences have usually been great ones, but last week I went here with family and it was not the greatest. My husband ordered his favorite soup, gazpacho, and it was flavorless. He wanted to ask the waitress for hot sauce just to give it some flavor but she was no where to be found. His daughter had to get up and go find her (granted, it was the dinner hour and it was somewhat busy, but we hadn't seen her at all in the restaurant for about 10 minutes after appetizers were brought out). She brought his hot sauce a couple minutes later and apologized. Our food came, and it looked delicious as ever. I ordered the Tex-Mex bread bowl salad, with salsa and sour cream as my dressing. It wasn't until half way through that I realized that the "salsa" was actually their pizza sauce (thanks to the jalapenos on the salad those bites were spicy and I couldn't tell). It wasn't until I took a bite without a jalapeno that I realized it. Again, our server was missing, and the next time we'd see her is when she started clearing the plates. My son-in-law also stated that the bun for his burger smelled of the plastic bag that it had been stored in, but he didn't say anything until after he had eaten most of it. I decided to take my salad home, and to my surprise, the bread bowl was not cooked all the way towards the bottom (the upper edges of the bowl seemed a tad light, but were cooked well enough to eat). I'm not sure if I'd want to eat here again, though it was one of my favorite special restaurants (can't afford to eat here all the time so it's reserved for...

Me and my family used to come here a lot when i was little and i remember the food being amazing. Well we came back recently and the food was absolutely awful and so was the service. I also was not impressed at all with all the extra charges. We were charged for having the pizza half cheese half pepperoni. Which i feel is absurd. Drinks were insanely over priced and the food was super expensive for how awful it tasted, me and my bestfriend got Alfredo and the noodles were disgusting I haven’t had bad food like this in a very very long time. We will 100% not be coming back here. The service also was not the best the host and server were kinda rude they kind of seemed bothered that we were there and it was uncomfortable. It makes me sad that they took a bad turn in business because I used to love coming here as a kid but i most definitely won’t return now. It was like 100 dollars for me, my friend, and my grandpa. We each ordered one dish of food and then a small side of fries and the bill was insane. We go out to eat at a lot to nicer places than this and the food isn’t that much. What really shocked me was the prices of drinks, i have 3 jobs currently and none of them charge as high for normal drinks like this business did. It’s absurd and never would we have gone there if we knew this would be the outcome. (I also still can’t get over charging us extra just to have the pizza with half pepperoni, it literally takes half the work we should have just ordered pepperoni and peeled half off so it would have...
