Had this pizza before it was so good was a 5. Month later had the same pizza again and it looked like this and tasted just as bad as it looks. Arugula did not taste fresh. Would rate a 1 if not for the first 5 star pizza, but $20 for this lack of quality and a 50/50 of great pizza/terrible pizza is waaaay way too much. read more

I'm always on the lookout for new pizza places. I noticed this place when I was leaving Meijer one day. I wanted to stop in then, but sadly they're not open for lunch during the week. However, last week I was in the neighborhood at dinner time, so I stopped in. It's a nice place, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The one thing I will take a slight issue with is the music was rather loud. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate music in a business, but I was trying to talk to someone at the bar and could barely hear them. I ordered a large cheese and a small pepperoni & Kalamata olive pizza to go. And I had a local Amber Lager while I waited. The pizza was awesome! It reminded me of New Haven Style. It had a nice char on the crust. It had the perfect amount of sauce & cheese. The pepperoni was how I liked them, tiny and spicy. I wish they had roasted red peppers as a.topping. And the Gran Padano Cheese shavings on top was a nice touch I hadn't seen before. This is up there with the best pizzas in the area. Highly recommended! read more

To update my review I paid $35.09 for a 14". They auto charged 15% gratuity without notification then prompt you for another tip without mentioning you have already been charged. The owner claims this is posted on the website and on the online order and I challenge that because I just searched from top to bottom and there is nothing stating this. The only way to know is to look at the full breakdown of the bill. https://www.dictionary.com/browse/gratuity I included the definition of the word "Gratuity" because I think the owner is confused. Being forced Gratuity before even receiving a service is ridiculous. read more

Heard wonderful things about this place so we decided to venture out. Staff was so friendly and kind. The food was just okay though. I wasn't impressed and wouldn't eat here again unless I was in the area and wanted pizza. Even then, might try a different pizza place since there's so much variety. Again, wasn't horrible but nothing amazing but staff were some of the friendliest I've encountered in awhile. read more

Love that King Dough made it's way to Carmel. It is such a treat! Quality food and rad staff.

We arrived at your Carmel location at 8:32PM on Friday night, and we were told you weren't taking anymore people because you had too many waiting. There were 3 groups of people in the waiting area, and multiple empty tables that hadn't been bussed yet. Your closing time is 9pm. It was Friday NIGHT AND the Carmel Marathon was the following morning, meaning you had many people looking for your specific product and many out of town people experiencing Indy for the first time. My husband and I are in the restaurant business, and could not believe this scenario. We both also hate Yelp, and this is my first review which he actually asked me to write. This is a pretty awful way of gaining a market in which you just opened not long ago. Not a good look for you. Good luck. Thanks for the response, however, obviously we know there is a wait on Friday night! We wanted to be added to the waitlist. The point of this review is that they told us at 8:32 they were not accepting names on the waitlist. Most restaurants accept names on a waitlist until closing time. read more

Placing an order online was simple. The application gave me a pick up time for my order which was an hour from the time I placed my order. I arrived an hour later to see a ton of people in the waiting area. When I inquired about my order they said it wasn't ready yet. I waited about 20 minutes then inquired again. The young lady said she couldn't put a time on it but maybe 15-25 more minutes. I left and spent about another 40 minutes at another store. I came back and my order still wasn't ready. 10 minutes later a gentleman handed me a bag with my salad in it and went to box up my pizza. My Greek salad was wrong so he kindly fixed it. I checked my pizza in the car and it was also wrong. I didn't want to wait another 2+ hours for another pizza so I reached out through the app and received a refund. The food is delicious but I would not ever go back simply due to the service. Far too expensive for these kinds of mistakes. The pizza is on the thin side with very little toppings. The salad is my favorite. Looks like I'll by DIY'ing the salad at home. Also, they should invest in a larger waiting room with more seating and TV's because YOU WILL WAIT AN ETERNITY FOR YOUR PIZZA. read more

Check your receipts carefully they're sneaky and slip in some charges. They automatically add in 15% so they can cover employees benefits and then charge for gratuity on pick up orders. The response that was received is that it's common practice now everywhere. It's not my responsibility to supply their employees with benefits. read more

The food - wonderful. Ambiance - busy - loud but that's to be expected on a Friday night. Service - Inside the restaurant is good. The negatives- You cannot place an order online or by phone. Try it. You'll see why. I don't know how they will stay in business unless this MAJOR issue is corrected. Phone goes to a recording that wants you to leave a message. No option to order by phone. Online link doesn't take you anywhere so you can't order online. I had to drive over to order and was trying to take it to a party. Our ice cream cake melted while we waited ( 30 minute wait ) because we had to bring it with us as we were headed to the party from the restaurant . Just very inconvenient. read more

Food is very good. Little on the expensive side but you get what you pay for. Friendly staff and clean restaurant.

Very poor customer service. Ordered pizza and salad for takeout. They forgot to make the pizza so I suggested I would wait and eat my salad and they could comp me a drink. She went ballistic calling me a typical entitled Carmel lady read more

I actually have no idea how the Pizza is. I tried calling multiple times and they didn't answer so I drove to the restaurant to place a pick up order. She said it would be an hour and a half for one pizza and I asked why they don't answer the phone she said they turned them off because they were "kind of busy". They could've answered the phone and just told me that. read more

I can't rate the restaurant itself as all pizzas have been to go orders. But the pizza is great and one of the first places we think of when looking for pizza in Carmel. read more

Just so-so. There are much. Teter pizza places in Carmel. Service was okay but the hostess had on a shirt that was no more than a bra...with her tummy showing. Not appropriate in my opinion read more

Get out your King Size wallet! Too expensive for mediocre pizza. So many better choices of pizza places around the Carmel area. Very sparse ingredients for the price. read more

their pizza dough itself is very good but the price is excessive, and the rest is inconsistent. unlike most pizza places, they automatically add 10% gratuity for takeout and are unable to do 1/2 and 1/2 on toppings read more

We have visited King Dough a few times, so I feel confident in leaving this review. This is a fun restaurant. Ambience is cool. Great drink selection. Food is good, over-priced but good. Where my biggest beef lives is with the service. From the hostess when you enter, to really any staff member you interact with, you can anticipate a negative experience. Tonight we had the displeasure of sitting at the bar and being taken care of by the bartender. After being sat (at 6:00, prior to any big rush) we were not approached to get any kind of drink order until 10 minutes of being seated. This slowness is typical to this restaurant, so we were prepared. Following drinks, we were asked for our order (15 minutes later). Bartender didn't write it down (which is whatever) however, he approaches us 20 minutes later saying he forgot what we ordered and asked if we could say it to him again. At this point, the people next to us (who arrived afterwards) already had their appetizer. Frustrating. No apology. 30 minutes (and two empty drinks) later, our pizza arrives (no appetizer in sight). Again, nothing from our server. Had to track him down asking if our app would be arriving (???) no ask of refills, no apology, no asking how our current food is. Unfortunately this experience isn't a one-off, it's just freshly frustrating so I decided to leave a review. Order takeout, or don't order at all, either way I don't think you're missing anything. read more

I was disappointed with my experience here. I love the King Dough location downtown, but this location has some kinks to work out. We ordered a small salad and we couldn't even eat it because most of the salad was wilted and gross, which is extra frustrating because the small salad is $12. It's also a personal pet peeve of mine, when waiters don't tell you that dipping sauces like ranch cost extra, just tell me. Especially because they charged me $1.50 for a side of ranch- even with inflation, that's steep for ranch. I will say that the service was generally good. The pizza itself was a little above average, I got the Big boy. The pizza overall was not as good as my previous king dough experiences. I'm bummed because I was really excited for this location to open up. read more

Love seeing King Dough in Carmel! The KD crew killed it with this new location! The wings, burger and the Big Boy are must try items. Really enjoyed their selection of drinks as well! The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable of the menu. We enjoyed sitting in the bar, drinking wine and slamming ZA. Can't wait to come back! read more

So good! We got carry out and everything was great. The food was pretty pricey for salad/wings/pizza but I will say the quality was great. We got the antipasto salad, the sticky wings, and a build your own pizza. I will say the ambience of the restaurant also looked like a cool atmosphere when I did my carry out. Something like you would see in Chicago/New York. We will be back! read more

Probably my new favorite pizza joint in Carmel . Great dining experience-food was fast and fresh, and service great. Really cool inside and includes out door seating. Great for kids. Cheese pizza was great. The Greco salad was an amazing and the sticky sticks were delicious. read more

I felt like I was eating just cheese because the pizza dough is extremely thin..not even NY style thin. The crust was thick but rest of it super thin. It felt extra greasy because of how thin it was. The ranch is really good and the wings have a good taste but could use more sauce. Unfortunately will not be returning unless something changes with the pizza dough. read more

Stopped in at 8 PM on a Friday for dinner with my son. Got seated right away and then sat for 20 minutes with no one stopping to greet us or take our order. The table beside ours was having major service issues and so we just left. I have no idea if they have good food or not. read more

The place was beautiful, clean bathrooms and food may be expensive but it's worth it. The service was excellent, very kind and overall it's an excellent pizza restaurant. My only problem with this place, there wasn't nutritional information. I am a type 1 diabetic and I had a trouble figuring out the carbs for my meal. read more

Everything was absolutely fantastic. Best pizza in Carmel!! Don't sleep on the wings either!

We really enjoyed this pizza! The pepperoni was the small, "old school" kind which I like best. The crust was crispy & fell somewhere between thick & thin (sort of like hand-tossed). We got the order to go but the interior looked nice. I would definitely return to this establishment if I'm back in Carmel. read more

Kaylyn is a great bartender! Go visit her! This place is good and I love the way it's kind of tucked away... outside seating area is nice. Love it. The pizza is also really delicious and one of the better pizza spots in town. read more

Might be the best pizza in Indy. Service was very fast for just opening up. This will be our new takeout option for the future!

Above and beyond! A wonderful gem in Carmel, hands down the best pizza around Indiana & you need to check it out ASAP! They won me over with amazing customers service, absolutely delicious food & great drinks on the menu! read more

King Dough is an excellent addition to the growing restaurant scene in Carmel. The Destroyer and truffle fries are my go-to. Very friendly staff and edgy ambience with a quaint bar area. read more

This is the worst run business in Indianapolis / Carmel. Ordered pizza. As we walked at the allotted 45 minute pick up time, we were informed our order was cancelled. No reason given. Said they would fill the order in another 45 minutes. Went back and they were still not ready after an hour wait, on top often the extra 45 minute wait. Then. And with apologies as to why the order was still it ready. This is the second time this has happened. They won't answer their phones. They have no one over the age of 22 with authority or want to help/ serve customers. Great place to open a pizza shop as the existing business is awful!!! read more

Yah! So good. Happy to find our new go-to pizza source!! We're so excited to have a pizza restaurant that satisfies all of the different tastes of everyone at home. Ridiculous, but often we get pizza from two different restaurants because the guys like the basic deep-dish pizza (Noble Romans) and the girls like the thinner, less-bready gourmet artisan pizza (such as Pizzology). But we ALL liked King Dough's pizza!! It was 'in the middle' -- tasty with medium-thick chewy crust. It was easy to order, and we appreciated the cheerful & friendly help when we picked up as well as the clean nice-looking restaurant. Parking is easy to find just east of Meijer (Old Meridian & Carmel Drive); you can park on 3 sides of the restaurant. We ordered carryout, four 14" pizzas for 4 people: Margarita, cheese, veggie, & gluten-free. Again, everyone was happy with 'their' pizza they ordered. Leftovers were enjoyed day 2 :) We'll be back! read more

Still way to expensive for a pizza but quality and service has gone from night and day. Impressed at where they are at now

Unfortunately we had a terrible experience, ordered online for pickup, order cancelled. Had a large group at the house to feed and tried to get an order placed at 5:45 pm. They cancelled the first order (without calling) when we arrived they apologized and offered to supply the 5 pizzas for us, but it would be 45 mins. When we arrived to collect the second order, they did not have the order ready and after discussion we left without any pizza. With the amount of investment required to get a business to this stage and to let your customers down (there were many people that had been waiting two plus hours) is disappointing. Placed a new order with Loumalnati's (should have done this first) and 30 mins later we had out order filled with good hot pizza! Needless to say we know where we will be ordering from now on. read more

Klller Pizza... crust is fresh and cooked perfectly. The service is attentive, lots of teamwork. Enjoyed watching the cooks prepare the pizzas in the open style kitchen. Can't wait to return, great job King. read more

Had a great server tonight. Taylor at KingDough. The food was exactly how Taylor described it. Our service was great and food hit the table in a very timely manner. read more

The wings were very good and meaty. However, the salad was limp and soggy and the pizzas were extremely greasy. Most disappointing was we ordered 18 inch pizzas and they looked to be about 14 inches. This is second time we've come here, and both times the pizzas came out very small compared to the 18 inch tray that they sit on. The destroyer pizza we ordered hardly had any sausage on it or other toppings. Please note they automatically put 20% gratuity on your bill without telling you or it being listed on the menu. The service was excellent but for the extremely high price and inconsistent quality I cannot give it a favorable review. read more

My wife and I loved it! The Big Boy rocked! It was the best NY style pizza I've had in Indy, and it's not even close. Amber was our server, and she was great! I am looking forward to slamming copious amounts of this pizza pie. Awesome! read more

The food was fine..took awhile to get the pizza after getting 6 wings as our appetizer. I had two glasses of wine and my husband had 3 beers. Each glass of wine was $12?? The meal with tip was $96. We tried it, won't go back. Our server was wonderful but almost $100 for an okay meal and a couple of beverages is a bit steep...Sorry! read more

The pizza was fine. The price tag would have you think it's much better than you can make at home, but nah. The Destroyer was a fun new flavor set for us but I just make it myself now and honestly it's better and like 1/8th the cost. read more
