Store #5056, 1578 Harden Pkwy (?) despite several attempts to purchase from this Little Caesars location, they routinely disappoint. With regard to food, they exclusively make pepperoni hot and ready and to inquire about a cheese hot and ready is met with pushback or some other discouraging excuse. Customer service: below average. This rating is based on not only my interaction but the several other customers I witnessed be poorly treated. The demographic served at the location is predominantly Latino, thus, the side conversation to a co-coworker about the patrons in a language they don't speak is in poor taste. Especially when it is do discuss your distaste for someone. There are many Little Caesars locations in Salinas, consider skipping this store if at all possible. read more

Nastiest pizza I've ever had. It's cheap but I rather save my money No flavor, I got bloated, what kind of cheese was that?

Yes, I have had Little Caesars, on Saturday. I ordered the Pretzel stuffed crust. It had plenty of Pepperoni. Down side? The crust was not stuffed. The pizza was a bit on the greasy side. Over all it was not a bad pizza. It was Saturday and it was super busy. That was a bad choice to get pizza from that place, on that date, at that neighborhood. If you want cheap pizza at a cheap price, a little greasy, and no cheese stuffing this is your place. read more

If I could rate this place 0 stars, I would. It took almost two hours to get my order, and when it finally came, the pizza was cold and tasted awful. The person working the register was rude, unprofessional, and on his phone the entire time. The staff clearly lacked training, and the outside was just as bad groups of men standing around making women uncomfortable. This location is completely out of control. Management needs to step up or be replaced.... none of them could speak any english! lol Just go to the seaside one! Honestly, and order online, None in salinas are good! read more

Little Cesar's on north main doesn't have hot n' ready at all for over an hour! I went on my lunch break to get a hot ready pizza and the lady said it would be ready in 15 minutes so I came back an hour and a half.... And the pizzas were still not ready?!? Clearly they don't follow their logo, hot and ready because none of the pizzas were ready for over an hour!! I just left it was fucken ridiculous! Improve by having pizza's ready!! read more

Ordered online for pick up since I know the line is always a nightmare. I order online to bypass the line wait. Come to find out i get an email saying my order couldn't be loaded in the oven and to pick up my order at the counter. My online order was pointless as I still had to wait. read more

This review is going to be predominantly for Cynthia. She is the type of person when she is working The whole establishment is just better. We live around the corner and I have to admit Little Caesars is not our favorite pizza place. However, there are times where we have that nostalgic craving for a cheap pizza after a long day and because they are right around the corner and is an easy pick up. My husband and I started noticing that every time Cynthia is working the pizza is just better. We literally tested the theory and it's 100% true. Also, all of the comments below about the service if Miss Cynthia is there, that is something you definitely won't have to worry about. She goes out of her way to be very nice to everybody. We've watched her in action and she is equally friendly. If not overly friendly to everybody who walks in the door, she smiles and greets them no matter how busy it is. And that is some thing that everybody has to understand. This is a very central location, they are always slammed on their butt, I feel like people need to give this team some grace every time I drive by they have a line out the door. I think ownership should look at the analytics and probably hire or staff a little better on those days to keep up with demand... I know Cynthia has another job(which is so impressive to be such a hard-working woman and to keep up 100% of the customer service all throughout the day at both places) and if this location loses her, I definitely think they will be in trouble. Cynthia thank you for your amazing customer service you're wonderful smile and your great conversation. You are definitely commodity for any employer. read more

Food quality is so bad at this location even for Little Caesar's. Stale and overcooked bread sticks. The cheesy bread was cut so randomly uneven it was laughable, I'm talking cutting in places it wasn't even supposed to be cut. Not to mention one of the cheesy bread pieces literally looked like someone took bite or tore a whole chunk off it. The extra cheese was lumped all in the middle of the pizza. They didn't even add salt on the pretzel crust. Somehow the pizza tips were folded in as if they can't just use a half decent pizza cutter, so there was like a hole in center of the pizza. No joke, worst food experience in my life. Hire baboons instead, they'll cost less and probably do better. read more

Customer service was not pleasant but got the job done. Food looked good and tasted good. Ambiance was quiet and clean. Price is great. Would not go back due to customer service. read more

So rude and unprofessional read more

I need therapy after going to this location. Customer service is the worst at this location. They make you feel like you've inconvenienced them by ordering food and expecting it in a timely manner. I ordered crazy bread. Not difficult. I ordered and waited. While waiting a lot of foot traffic started to flood in. The lobby is so tiny so I go outside. I return and go directly to the counter expecting her to hand me my food because it's been about 10 minutes already. Easy right? Nope. She has blinders on and will NOT make eye contact with me to get me my order and makes me WAIT. It takes another 10 minutes before it's "my turn" and now I have cold crazy bread and a choice. Complain and wait another 20 minutes or take it up the you know.... Never ever ever going back to Little Caesar's Pizza again. Thanks to this location. Bye read more

worst location in town. They never have pizzas ready - neither for walk in or order ahead, even if the app says it's ready. You'll end up waiting for a long time for food that should be ready. All the while, staff is unorganized, unapologetic, and unprofessional. Workers standing around on their phones in the back. Poor service all around. The other locations in town stay busy also but they have much better service and have orders ready in a timely manner. read more

I would not recommend this location if you're calling they won't pick up the phone you'll be calling for like 15 minutes and then they will answer that's what happened to me I was on my way to Salinas and on my way to Salinas I was calling Little Caesars because that's the closest location from Castroville and I called and when I got through I was already pulling up to the parking lot and I don't recommend anybody go in here if you wanna wait 15+ minutes just to get through the phone call and plus you have to wait whatever time they have after you order your -0 F- read more

Went to this location on February 26 at exactly 10:15PM to try the new "Batman Calzone" since I've been wanting to try it. We get to place and the rude lady at the register told us "we're not making that pizza right now only pepperoni" that one is pepperoni but she refused to make that one. We left and ordered the pizza online and guess what they gave me the pizza . Pizza is delicious but the service here is horrible. Lady was being rude for no reason. read more

If I could give this place zero stars I would. Service is horrible and the girls there are just rude. Not only that, the breadsticks are burnt and hard. Pizza comes out under cooked and you have to wait 20 plus minutes for this. Do not support them. They don't care about the quality or customer service. read more

Horrible service, the lady on the register can simply just say she only speaks English instead of rudely stating to only speak English to her, over all the place could use better management read more

Pre-pandemic, this location wasn't that great. Vast majority of the time their "hot & ready" pizzas were a 15-20 minute wait. But last Saturday was just over the top outrageous. Placed an online order at 8:15. Got the confirmation email that my order would be ready at 8:30 - 8:35. Showed up at 8:30. And waited. And waited. Chatted with other customers whose orders were also 20+ minutes overdue. And waited. They weren't overly busy. But still waited. At 9:10 I went to the counter & asked for the status of my order. Employee (wearing a blue shirt...not sure if that signifies his position) rummaged around in the back for several minutes then came out with my order. Got home (10 minute drive) and discovered the pizza was stone stale. Seriously, it was probably a day old. Completely inedible. How they can keep customers waiting for nearly an hour & then hand off stale food is beyond me. But I'll never go to this location again. read more

Brah they cool but they cooking is wack, pizza and bread sticks weak!! I should've looked up the reviews on this spot, next to Safeway. Weak and they was talking to each other about tip! Braaaah who tip them?? Lmao had to be there friends lol read more

Bad customer service, a long wait over 20 minutes for an order,no organization with orders ready for pick up, or customer questions.especially the cashier who sees you standing there, but doesn't acknowledge you until you ask for the Manager. Sad how the New Generation of employees are not educated on their jobs. read more

Little Caesars Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Salinas, California

What a waste of time, this location is a joke. I order two bread sticks. One for me and one my wife. we order from outside their store. we ordered at 6:27pm. The app said it would be ready by 7:57pm. we saw people coming up and going in to order and they were getting there food before we even got ours. I asked the cashier will it really take that long to get our bread sticks. She said you'll have to wait. I said that is like a long time to wait for bread sticks. We kept seeing people who ordered after us getting there pizza and yet here we are still waiting for bread sticks. Then my phone gets a text my order is ready so I go to portal and my name was not there. I waited another 5 minutes and still no bread sticks. They asked my name and they had to look for our bread sticks. after 5 minutes they brought us two package of bread sticks it was clear as day that they had been left out for sometime. One package was look warm and thw other was cold and hard as rocks. I told the lady we will never order from that location again. I told her it was the worst customer service I have ever seen. I told her to make someone wait that long and other people getting their orders even though we order before them. The caisher said sorry you feel that way. No apologies whatsoever. A grub hub guy had already delivered his pizza and was back for next order. it took almost an hour all we got was disprected and left out cold breadaticks. The package were even cold. This place is a joke no wonder on yelp it has less than two star ratting read more

Not one to complain, but seriously?!!... Look how badly in the photo posted how the pizza was made! Basically 2 inches of crust!!! When we called to complain, no one really wanted to address the issue and just kept passing the phone to a different person 3 different times. Annoyed! Didn't want to go back to get a new pizza because kids were hungry and who knows what they'll do to it with a complaining customer. HORRIBLE!!! read more

Little Caesars Pizza - ...stuffed crazy bread... guess not - Pizza Near Me - Salinas, California

I placed the order with a young lady named Emily at Little Caesars on N. Main St. I asked if I can get Italian cheese bread with pepperoni on it. The young lady replied no we don't do that. I had explained to her I've done it plenty times before and paid for the extra topping. she told me very rudely " well you must be calling the wrong location". I was about to call back and cancel my order and have my husband re-order only because I was afraid something would be done to my food. Sure enough I picked up my food and mind you I live 10 minutes away. We got home and our food was very cold. Even thought I had to wait for 5 minutes in till my food came out. It was not fresh and not even lukewarm, the food seemed as if it could've been yesterday's food that they tried to warm up . I was very disappointed, not only with the service but the food. Do not go to Little Caesars on North Main.!! Or should I say don't piss off Emily.#rude read more

Horrible. cheese pizza tastes hella sour and the pepperoni pizza is burnt and you dummy's didn't even cut it.

Just got home and the young lady at the counter has to be the worst im not sure if shes just young and stupid ir was never trained right. If it wasnt enough as i was leaving the young man tells her if he had money he wouldnt be here. I was there because my kids were craving craxy bread read more

Place is trash! Placed an order over the phone, I come in and they have nothing! So ridiculous and unorganized

Below average, nothing special at all. I always order veggie pizza and cheese sticks. Pizza dough, the way they roll it, pizza is always thick from one side and skinny from the other. Honestly, every other pizzeria makes better pizza than these guys. read more

I was surprised and delighted with the thin crust pepperoni pizza my husband brought home the other day. It was outstanding! We need to get a Little Caesar's back in Prunedale And then there was the dry, flavorless pizza we had the other day... Not very good cheese coverage... Dropped my review from 4 to 2 stars. read more

Was out of (plain) cheese "hot and ready", but as promised, they were ready quickly; the pizza stayed hot in the box long after we got it home. If you've ever gotten "hot and ready" this location delivers the familiar pies; meets expectations. read more

I don't understand why they can't simply cut the pizza. I don't think they even tried today. That's one thing. But this pizza LITERALLY HAS NO SAUCE IN IT. Not cut and no sauce? To top it off, we got crazy bread and they put zero cheese on it. When we asked if we can get some cheese, they wanted to charge us. Wouldn't recommend. read more

Once again nothing "hot" nor "ready"!!!!! It's really sad that this is a high volume place too and they literally have empty shelves. I would have to say definitely need to look into better ways to keep food coming out. If I wanted to wait 20 minutes for something advertised as ready and basically food to go I may as well order pizza and sit my butt at home and wait for it somewhere else. :/ Once again dissatisfied Went again this week same thing called in my order. My orders even at 40 mins late still was NEVER MADE!!!!! read more
