I stopped by Cicis Pizza during their buffet discount special -- mostly because I happened to be next door at the UPS Store and was starving. From the moment I walked in, the smell was... unpleasant (like sewage), but with a 90 health score posted, I decided to give it a shot. It wasn't busy, but the buffet looked picked over and everything felt low-effort. The pizza pans were old and bent, and apparently no one had taught the staff how to properly cut a pizza -- slices were uneven and messy. Most of the pizzas were cold, likely because the heating lights weren't even on. On my second pass, I did manage to grab a couple of hot slices that were okay, but overall this place felt like it was just coasting. The buffet itself was tiny -- I remember Cicis being much more extensive back in the day. I literally stood at the end of it wondering, where's the rest? This place is fine if you're a kid who just wants pizza and doesn't care -- but if you're not desperate or hungry enough to settle, I'd go elsewhere. read more

The dishes met expectations, service was fine, and the ambiance was relaxed without being too noisy or formal.

Came here to kill some time while waiting an hour for a haircut appointment. I have not been to a CiCi's in a very long time. My cons: The pasta and soup is extremely tasteless/bland. I thought their soup was chicken noodle, but no chicken and it's basically just water and noodles with a few slices of carrots. Pasta is the same as used in soup, with bland sauce. My positive was their salad bar is pretty good, quality seems good. Their Hawaiian pizza was my favorite. My concerns? As someone who worked in public health, I must say while eating here I found it very alarming that I saw one employee behind the salad bar making herself a plate of salad while eating a few pieces from behind the counter while wearing her gloves. Hopefully she didn't touch any food being served to customers without changing her gloves. I also noticed an older lady, possibly the manager, but wearing street clothes, who put her personal food through the pizza oven inside some circular aluminum foil pan. From a public safety perspective, this type of behavior is unacceptable. [Review #721] (19th Review of 2024) read more

Great value pizza buffet! They offer 4-5 different kinds of pizza along with Salad, soup, desert pizza and cinnamon rolls for ~$10 plus $1 for soda. It is the regular pan pizza with bunch of toppings: spinach pizza, Mix Veg, Hawaiian, Peperoni, cheese, and macroni. The service is fast and the staff maintains a neat restaurant. It is a casual spot and good for groups and family. It is kid friendly. There is ample of parking spot in the plaza. I highly recommend them as the quality is consistent and it gets the job done. read more

very good pizza. the cinnamon rolls are very good and my delivery service was excellent.

Worst Cici's I've ever been to. It stinks as soon as you walk in. Manager spends more time on her phone than working. Has an attitude. Pizza is dried out. I'll never go back! read more

The place was clean overall, could've been better but no real complaints on cleanliness. Customer service was lackluster. Maybe I'm "old school" , but the fact that they do not announce what pizza is up like they did in the past; (for example, "Taco PIZZAs UP!") was saddening. Also, the fact that they do NOT salute the guests when they leave saying, "CiCi ya later!!" was also heartbreaking. The quality of the pizza was great! Fresh, and the crust seemed to have gotten much better and more flavorful. The upkeep of the bussers cleaning tables needs to be more frequent. And the lack of control of the crowd/children is not attractive. (Maybe some signs encouraging guardians to watch over their children would be helpful.) Overall, good experience. Could be much better. read more

Cicis Pizza - Jalapeño & pepperoni pizza, covering supreme pizza and cheesy bread! - Pizza Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Is this gourmet food? No, but you don't expect gourmet food at Cici's. I have eaten in a dozen or so Cicic's and this was the cleanest one I've been in. Friendly employees. They had a nice variety of pizza on the buffet. And hot, they were popping them out. The desserts were great as well. The salad bar had many items and was super fresh with 6 or 8 options on the dressing. A great place to bring the family. Still economical. Bet you spend less than most fast food places. And fun for the kids to pick out what they want Had a nice chat with Scott, the owner. Nice guy who takes pride in his store. I will be back and you should give it a try too read more

I visited this location last week for the first time. I visited this franchise for the first time early 2000 while working with a landscaping crew. The pizza is delicious and the quality is good. The customer service is great at this location. I got Buffalo chicken pizza and bbq chicken pizza and cheese pizza and cheese bread for the buffet price to go. My coworker told me about taco pizza. I didn't see any at this location. read more

Cicis Pizza - a pizza in a pizza box - Pizza Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

CiCi's Italian chain offering buffets with an array of specialty pizzas, plus simple pastas, salads and desserts. This place is just next to Publix, you can't miss it. I haven't been to a CiCi's in years, but I had an awesome experience this visit and will definitely be returning back again. It's been much improved from my past visit. I had a BOGO offer so went with friend. On the buffet you find specialty pizzas like Hawaiian, Pepperoni, Buffalo Chicken, BBQ, Meat lovers, supreme and Veggie. Alina is great at staff. She is the best, not only does she go out her way to help the customers be she always has a smile. Thank you and keep working hard. I like this CiCi's because they keep that pizza coming hot and fresh. Great job, keeping the buffet stocked with fresh pizza. You clear your own table now and they come clean them, which makes things easier for them. I think that helps free up staff to keep the pizzas coming. Even the salad bar was better fresher and cleaner. It gets busy at times, but they keep up and that is very much appreciated. The soup and salad looked and tasted the best. Here all you can eat unlimited and all you can drink beverages unlimited for one price. This place is maintained clean and fresh. The seating is huge with more than ten plus tables and chairs. To the wall side you have softs and table. Their prices went up just a little bit because of the pandemic, but I love their pizza, soup and the salad. They got a small game room in the back and about four T.V's to watch the game which is really cool. As this place sits in a shopping plaza, so their is plenty of free parking in front of the restaurant. If you are in the area please try it and will not regret. read more

Today I was craving pizza and it's cold and rainy in atlanta . My family and I went around 5pm. It wasn't packed at all . $24 for 2 adults with a drink . So the inside was clean and someone was cleaning the tables and clearing the plates off. The pizza wasn't fresh and the salad bar looked terrible. The salad was wilted, the veggies was frozen and wet . Overall it wasn't the best experience but hey we are here . I had to ask the pizza ppl to make more pizza . After sitting and eating for about 15 mins , a large group of 25 people came in . When they saw the large group come in , they had no choice but to make tons of fresh pizza . We will visit again . Everyone have a bad day , we're human . read more

I get it...capitalism, competition and most importantly consumerism. I haven't been to a Cici's in YEARS!!! And yesterday I remembered why. Don't get me wrong, it serves its purpose. Low price, never ending food, and made to order. But, what doesn't go unnoticed is the restroom, and odd smell by the beverage area. This location is in the publix shopping center off of Lawrenceville highway. Service basic. For example, I forgot to tell them I have the app (yes I'm thrifty, I want every deal coming my way). Such a miss on their part. We met up w a couple of families so the kids could hang, while the parents chatted their lives away. Parking is awesome. The traffic flow comes in waves. Most importantly the restroom floor is wet and dingy. In the eatery portion of the restaurant their are always caution cones. I get it, trust me I do, but their has to be a better way. On the plus side, they have made changes to the aesthetics of the restaurant. The main area is modern ( kinda looks like a Stevie J, yikes). Wish they would make some changes to the bathroom. Invest in some sanitary features (automatic air freshener) until it's cleaned each day. Heavens knows you need a proper restroom when folks are eating salt, sugar and dough non stop, just saying. Unfortunately, this review is more than the food. Because Cici's issue is outside of food. It's a buffet( so my personal expectation is cleanliness, if I can't trust the restroom I'm highly skeptical of the food), and I've yet to experience a buffet that is stellar. But I don't mind waiting until then either. read more

DONT GO HERE the food was dry , it looked depressing, macaroni was un seasoned and tasted plain . Only thing that was good was the cinnamon roll. The brownie was cold and felt uncooked . read more

Horrible customer service and inept management. I understand business hours have changed during covid, but this place is being run like a Mickey mouse organization. I called ahead to ask what were their business hours and spoke to a "manager". He stated that they were open until 7:30. I arrived at 7pm and they have 7:30 clearly written in sharpie on their doors, but the doors were locked. There were people inside eating and an employee looked at me through the glass and shook his head no. If you're gonna lock your doors at 7 then change your hours to 7pm and don't have "managers" giving out false info. read more

We have always came to this place with no issues. Lady at the cash register, was very disrespectful and was targeting us . We came to celebrate my mom's birthday , sad to say it was ruined . We were being targeted. Me and my mom drink water so we just got water cups including my little sisters . We're not problematic at all , we respect everyone and their rules. We were very respectful until the lady came to our table and snatch both of my little sister's drinks and threw it away in our faces. She said " she guys only paid for water". We let that slide we were like it's ok . Then again 10 minutes later she came back and snatched the cups right back up without asking and did the same thing. She didn't come to us nicely, we would have had paid if you were that desperate for a $2 cup . She was very disrespectful . She could have approached us the nice way, instead she snatched the drinks and had the nastiest attitude. We were very upset . Mind you there were so many people who had water cups that were filled up with soda. But we were the only ones targeted! They're kids , how can someone be so cruel over a kid getting a drink? I got up to try to pay but she refused to ring me up . She called the cops and lied and said that we touched her . No where near did we ever tried to touch her . All this over a water cup . Again we have been at the location since 2014 , this was our childhood place. This was our first time getting cop's called on us . Honestly who does all this over a water cup ? They were just kids getting a drink . We could of had done worst but we are not those type of people. Unfortunately we got kicked out . Even the polices were shocked, because all of this over a water cup was crazy. We even tipped the worker who cleaned our mess as we walked out . At the end she was the one who lost money by throwing away our drinks twice . Why throw it away in our faces and not just let them have it ? ‍ this world is so evil man . I pray that lady gets what she deserves. We have all the rights to sue her and for her behavior against us. Mainly for our privacy. read more

Cicis Pizza - This was the lady . - Pizza Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Ok so this place sucks and rocks at the same time. The pizza tastes like a pizza you get from a fundraiser. Easy bake oven pizza. Upside is that my 4 year old likes it. It's cheap too. The place has totally given up on appearance, the seats are ripped with the guts exposed and my toddler thinks it's gross. They make these weird pizzas with toppings That make you cringe. I mean just make some traditional pizzas folks. No one wants macaroni pizza!! Stop it at once. I'll keep coming back until my 4 year old realizes it's inferior food...or until the place goes bankrupt. read more

There is an EXTREMELY strong chemical smell that smacks you in the face the moment you walk in. Even my 5 year old loudly detected it. For a place that is constantly baking pizzas it does not smell like pizza at all, it smells like a commercial cleaning agent, but doesn't even feel very clean. The smell made it hard to enjoy the pizza, which is decent for the price, one step above frozen pizza. I refused to touch the salad bar. It just stinks so bad that idk if I can go back. read more

I don't know what it is but this place definitely had this weird looming smell when I was here. It was weird and didn't exactly stink but wasn't appetizing in the least. The staff is generally nice. They didn't do anything outstanding but they are courteous and nice people for sure. The pizza is the only reason im giving this place 2 stars. The buffalo chicken is my top choice and it was great here. The young woman on the oven really knew what she was doing. All in all , if your really craving Cici's and the next one is a long drive away you may not mind stopping in. I've had better for sure though. read more

This place is disgusting. Besides the fact they have an 86 score for their health inspection I was just shocked at the food quality. The deep dish pizza is a joke! More bread and dough and a crummy layer of topping. I literally felt like I was eating bread with light sauce. Their selection was also a complete disaster. I actually waited for fresh pizza and when it did come out it still taste a little stale and once again, not enough toppings. The atmosphere was pretty dirty as far as tables not being wiped off in a timely matter, but obviously whoever did the health inspection was a genius. If the friend I was with didn't insist on eating here because it was close to the theater i would've easily recommend somewhere far away from here. Don't eat here until they are under new management or something as far as the recipes change because this place is just wrong when it comes to pizza. I know Cicis can't do anything about it's audience but there were a lot of dirty, smelly, and loud people here on a Friday night and also a lot of unattended children, whining, screaming, and wasting things all over the place. Choose wisely, just go somewhere else. read more

Cicis Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Best Deal in Town! All you can eat for $6.69, including tax, at lunch. Add a fountain drink (or brewed iced tea) for a buck and change, or drink free ice-cold water flavored with a RealLemon packet. All pizzas were piping hot, cheesy, and fresh from the oven. Fast, friendly, fresh, and inexpensive place for lunch. Ci Ci's was well-staffed with Shabazz doing a great job in the dining room, and the restaurant manager (?) making delicious pizzas while monitoring the entire restaurant with a very keen eye. The young woman serving the buffet was friendly and attentive, and Shabazz kept the dining room and serving counter spotless. The cold salad bar was clean, and featured perfect produce. Pizzas and desserts were freshly made and delicious. My favorite pizzas were the spinach flatbread and the deep-dish pepperoni and sausage. Customers were greeted by the cashier immediately and there was no wait. Cashier, buffet server, dining room attendant, and store manager all worked happily, efficiently, and effortlessly together. It's obvious that this restaurant is very well managed. Bathroom was clean and stocked with paper products and hand soap. read more

The general manager here is super aggressive and rude! He yelled and caused a scene after we tried to speak to him about the pizza being cold, not being fresh and tasting awful and he got an attitude and rudely asked "are you serious" we told him we were leaving and just wanted a refund. The pizza was cold, hard and gross. He agreed that "some" of the pizza wasn't good, and offered half a refund and then became even more aggressive after my brother in law walked over after worrying about my sisters safety due to the managers aggressive behavior and yelling and my brother in law told him again the food was bad and we just wanted our refund so we could leave, he became so irate to the point that the situation escalated and my sister had to walk my brother in law out to help calm it down and I stayed with the two toddlers we had with us who were crying scared due to the General mangers aggressive behavior and yelling. It is the general managers job to ensure the restaurant is run smoothly and he admitted the pizza wasn't good and then yelled and became aggressive at the customers, he blamed it on him feeling "challenged" which is scary and insane! He needs to be fired for the safety of the customers who he thinks are "challenging" him. He terrified two babies and our family over an issue he admitted. Totally unacceptable. read more

I used to enjoy CiCi's every now and then. I love pizza (even cheap pizza)! I don't know what happened or what's different but I thoroughly didn't enjoy this particular visit. Nothing wrong with staff but the pizza was lacking in flavor than what I remembered. I won't be going to any CiCis again because of this visit. This store ruined it for me. read more

1547 reviews in and this is the first one for which I am really, truly, embarrassed. It was raining, I was starving and poor, and my power started flickering. Where can I get a whole bunch of comfort food for a mere $5? Enter Cici's. We all know what awaits: a crappy buffet of pizza that's certainly diverse but no parts gourmet. I'll admit that the garlic knots and cinnamon rolls are passable when fresh, but the rest just leaves a lot to be desired. Even the water was nasty. This location needs to be bussed more often (many tables were left dirty for the entirety of our stay), but the employees were friendly. And, well, that's all there is to say about that. ::blush:: read more

Pizza was bland no flavor ! The only thing I liked were the cinnamon rolls. Clean restaurant awful food .

After seeing the ads for stuffed crust pizza , we decided to try it. None of the food really had any flavor. 1 of 3 plates had left over food on them. it's no longer a cheap buffet, at one time when the price was lower, the quality was actually better... read more

I like their flatbread pizza -- when I can get it. And that's the point of this review. Their website says they're open until 10:00 PM on Saturday night. I live right across the street and can walk over and get a pizza. But they're not "open" until 10 PM; they stop taking orders online BEFORE 8 PM. The website says to order, that they're open until 10, but if you try to place an order -- as I did tonight, at 7:45 -- it says this outlet cannot be reached and no order was accepted. So I tried to call them; no answer. Seriously? OK, I can understand a place in the 'burbs closing earlier -- that's fine -- but for goodness sake just let us know! Let us know when we can place an order; that's all I ask. This is the second time I've been shut out. The first time I tried to place an order at 8:30, I believe. So this time I tried before 8:00. Still no luck. Get it together, folks. read more

Ok so this is my second time coming to this Cicis. One thing i did love was how they did keep the food coming and it was hot & i definitely know that had to do with the crowd on a Sunday night. It still had this weird smell but i was kinda forced to sit near the bathroom/kitchen so ehh. It was this little bug on the wall l, i did my best to ignore it & there was a few of those little black flying gnats. read more

I've been going to this location of Cici's for at least 20 years. Every Thursday I'm in the area and I make a point of having lunch at Cicis. Not only is the value amazing, but the food has always been wonderful. They take special requests. I like the buffalo chicken pizza on thin crust. The general manager, Luis, has always gone out of his way to make sure that my experience, food, and environment are amazing. I can't say enough good things about Luis. If I were going to open a restaurant, I would contact Luis first. His experience, his knowledge, his friendliness towards customers can't be beat. I highly recommend this location to anyone who wants a wonderful pizza and salad meal. You'll be very happy. read more

It is definitely time for renovations here! This place is quite dirty and the restroom is filthy. The pizza is okay; it tastes like CiCi's Pizza. The front staff is efficient but when I look into the kitchen, I only see one person wearing gloves. The fountain drinks area isn't very clean and one of the drinks is always broken. Today it's the Sprite. The kids love it and that's why I keep coming here. read more

My family used to go to this location once a month several years ago when we all had activities in the area. We decided to stop by today since we were intrigued by the new stuffed crust pizza they offered. The place was not very clean, and the food was flavorless and much worse than we remembered. My mother described it best: "I used to come here, eat a lot, and feel satisfied. Now, I ate a lot and don't feel satisfied at all." You can no longer order a pizza on the buffet for your table. The pizza that you do order for your table is a personal pizza. It is very small. Overall, we tried it, didn't enjoy it, but cheap pizza will always be a family favorite. read more
