Our team absolutely lucked out staying at a hotel next door to JC's! We were in town for a tournament and ordered to our hotel pizzas and salads for 20 hungry 12yo boys and their families. This was hands-down some of the best pizza we have had! Saying the owner, Jesse, went above and beyond to make sure all went smoothly is an understatement. He and his staff (special shout-out to Rachel) were friendly and courteous. I am very much looking forward to being in the area again and dining in next time. Sounds like I will need to try the buffalo dip...along with one of the desserts! read more

This place is a train wreck. We ordered food to go and waited at the bar, where the bartender--while friendly--was clearly overwhelmed. Despite placing a to-go order, food kept coming out with no containers ready, and food runners seemed indifferent to whether the order was correct or not. It was genuinely sad. I had high hopes when it transitioned from Tony Sacco's, but unfortunately it feels like it's heading down the same path--and quickly. read more

Where do I even begin? Our server even called this place a dumpster fire! The only positives I can say is that the food is good but the service is horrendous. MANY patrons were MAD. We waited for over an hour to be seated (when the gal at the front said we'd be seated right away) then we waited for 2 hours for our food and when we get it, it's missing several ingredients...because they're out. Oh and the best part is when all the cooks left the kitchen and sat in a circle in the dining room for 15 or so minutes. The owner was also there...sitting at the bar with a drink. Why wasn't he helping bus tables, cook, GO TO THE STORE TO GET INGREDIENTS THEY RAN OUT OF??? This was during their busiest rush. What in the world???? Excuse was made that it's St. Joe's prom and all their employees are at the prom. Unreal! 1 star because food is decent but we will not return. read more

JC's Coal Oven Pizza - The cooks NOT in the kitchen - Pizza Near Me - Granger, Indiana

Service was good, very friendly and kind servers. Garlic knots were reheated and not warmed all the way through, tepid inside and needed more color on the dough. Salads were good, the jalapeno ranch is tasty. Pizza was floppy and undercooked. "Roasted" onions on the pizza were only partially cooked and still tasted raw - not what we expected. Sausage and pepperoni were tasty but the pepperoni cups needed more time in the oven. The edges of the dough were cooked through but barely. Disappointed, coal fired pizza should be crispy with a touch of char. This pizza was already sliced and needed another 3-5 minutes in a hot oven. read more

First time here nice place on the inside. Our service is pretty good. We had the Hawaiian pizza. It was good, a little on the expensive side. read more

JC's Coal Oven Pizza - Hawaiian pizza - Pizza Near Me - Granger, Indiana

I don't even know where to start. We were seated promptly and that's about the only positive thing that happened. We ordered a medium pizza, a beer and a Coke. The waitress dropped off the drinks and said the pizza would "be right up". We waited 50 minutes. Empty drinks and the waitress never stopped back by. We finally got the waitresses attention to ask for a refill, again almost an hour after sitting down. She brought a pizza. It was cold. Not warm, not cool, COLD! I was still waiting for the beer. So 20 minutes after the pizza came, we finally got the beer. By this time we were done eating. We asked for the bill. Oh and that beer that we waited 30 minutes to get? It smelled like a mildewed wash rag. Disgusting. Probably one of the worst experiences we have had in this area. You could not drag me back to JC's Coal Oven Pizza. There are so many better places in this area to get quality food and service, don't waste your time or money going here. read more

I stopped in for dinner. I had a simple cheese pizza. The pizza was good but could have been cooked a little longer. The service was fine. The ambiance is ok. It's a nice place to go. read more

Ran into this very cozy pizza spot on the way back home to Chicago. The buffalo dip is a staple, delicious! Pretty big pizzas, we enjoyed the bbq chicken pizza. If you're lucky, the owner is behind the bar pouring up wine and beer ( wine and beer only)! Will def return read more

Great time with flavorful appetizers and good sized portions. Pizzas were mostly tasty. Well priced and worth returning. read more

We've been here a few times now and each time we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. It takes a little while for the pizza to come out, but that's understandable and so worth the wait! The staff is great, very friendly. If you've been on the fence about trying this spot, take this as your sign to try it! read more

Great pizza, good service, and a fun vibe. We will go back! Good for kids too, unpretentious.

Food has been delicious and the service is fantastic. Will be returning anytime I'm in town.

Went with a large group of 20 last Saturday and the pizza and service was great. The owner is very friendly and takes care of his customers.

YU'M Come here and eat the pizza. Great thin crust and great service. The ambiance is perfect for a pizza place read more

What can I say about this place that would do it justice!? You will be welcomed with family friendly level of hospitality that sets the tone for the meal. Then the meal comes and it will literally blow your socks right off! If I could give this place ten stars I would! I live 12 hours away and know for a fact I will enjoy this place again! read more

Amazing food, amazing service! If only I lived in Indiana! This was by far some of the best food I have ever had! Their crust is out of this world. We had the Pizza Wheels, sooooo good. Also the Hot Honey Pizza was fantastic. Granddaughter loved her meatball sliders! The owner Jesse stopped by our table, and talked to us and shared his story. Businesses like this are hard to find these days! read more

I love the coal oven pizza here. Amazing food and staff. The best pizza in our area. High quality ingredients. Amazing tomato sauce on the pies. And try the pin wheels. They are delicious with the jalapeno ranch dressing. Yum! read more

The pizza here is GREAT! The crust was light and perfectly crisp. Very flavorful and staff is friendly.

I like having another pizza option! We sat at the bar and couldn't decide on our pizza choice, so we got 2 (Capolini and Hot 'n Honey) and the meatball appetizer. Everything was really good. My only criticism is that the hot honey was put on with too heavy of a hand. Next time I'll order it light on the honey or honey on the side with extra pepperoni. Our bartender waitress was very helpful guiding us as first-timers. read more

Good pizza and quick service! The sauce was delicious and the price was reasonable too, we will be back! read more

JC's Coal Oven Pizza - Cheese pizza - Pizza Near Me - Granger, Indiana

The food here is amazing and the customer service is beyond what most restaurants do. Love this place and highly recommend.

Can't beat the taste of fresh dough cooked in a coal oven. Did not disappoint. Pizza was great. Sauce is basic, but fresh and familiar. Meatball lollipops had a lot of flavor...although they were luke warm when brought to us. Garlic bread was top notch. Food didn't take too long. Service was good. Friendly staff. Prices were reasonable...specialty pizzas are $28, but they are pretty good sized pies. Was definitely worth a try, and I'll personally be going back for more. read more

We had family in town and knew the pizza here was good. After stopping in to order, it was clear the entire staff was polite, professional and efficient. Our entire group talked long after we ate about how great the pizza was. We all agreed this is our only pizza place from now on. Excellent restaurant! read more

Staying in Mishawaka for work and I wanted to find some good pizza. Thanks to my fellow Yelp crew, I found JC's only two miles up the road. My order was a draft beer, Oma's side salad with Bleu cheese dressing, and a personal pizza with sausage, olives, and banana peppers. The salad was awesome, and the Bleu cheese dressing was the best I've ever had. It wasn't too chunky, but also wasn't that creamy bullshit from a bottle. The blue cheese dressing alone is worth the visit. The salad had thin slices of salami, croutons, veggies, and it was a nice size. The pizza was also very good, and I really loved the ground sausage and big banana peppers. The sauce was good and you could tell the dough for the crust is made fresh daily! Service was wonderful at the bar table, with plenty of TV's, and the owner/manager greeted me and bid me farewell on the way out. That's the sign of someone who not only cares about their business, but they also care about the people coming through the door. Bravo to the team. Pretty awesome that all the toppings are fresh and NEVER FROZEN. Show these guys some love. Show love to grow love. read more

Thank you for the excellent experience! Our server was great, and the owner Jesse was a gracious host. We got Rotoli which were fantastic, and our 2 build your own pizzas were outstanding. We will definitely be back! read more

So good! We haven't been in here since it opened after the previous pizza place went out. The pizza was so good and the side salad was a generous portion with great toppings such as salami, cheese and veggies. The owner was personable and stopped by the table twice to check on our meal. We will be back! read more

One of the best dinning experiences, I have had in Indiana. Great staff, Killer pie, Jacob G Boss pie is fire. The Owner, Your dedication is truly commendable. read more

The food is soooo good. Crispy but light crust. garlic knots are just as incredible. The owner treats every person that walks in that door as his best friend. The waitresses are just the same. Fun, spread out, seating. You don't feel like you're right on top of the other. The kids also get dough to play with while you wait! It's a great experience every single time. read more

After Sacco's closed, JC's opened in the same spot. Which is great because they kept the coal fire oven! JC's pizza is outstanding. Crisp yet chewy crust, nice sauce and tons of toppings to choose from. Lasagna is also good and big as a plate. Outside of Venturi, this is the best pizza place in the area hands down. read more
