MOD Pizza

Reading my last review from over 11 years ago, this place is still the same. Though I don't go…read morethere as often as before, food continues to be consistently good. Nothing's changed, still an eyesore with ripped swivel stool seats, nobody wiping tables that dirty customers leave, and garbage cans often overflowing. But I'm upping my rating from 3 to 4 stars. Why? Because they are one of the few remaining places that don't ask for a tip (via screen or signed receipt) when paying by credit card for carry-out orders. This wasn't an issue 11 years ago, but it disgusts me today. I've even cut down going to places like that, quite significantly. But I do wish Doggie Diner would take better care of the inside (and remove the HUGE sign that reads that they will be reducing the size of their menu in August, 2021). Ambiance still isn't checked above, as are food and service (gotta wonder why "eyesore" didn't trigger that?--c'mon Yelp). But it's checked now though, lol.

SLAPSSSSSSSSS! This…read moresmall and locally owned 'dawg' (no? not funny.. k fine) spot has been in business for 30+ years. It has all the essentials a binge worthy food outing needs - family and friendly service, fantastic food and space to enjoy it. There is about 20-25 indoor seating arrangements + a slot/gambling area. My husband was frequent here during his younger years and FINALLY introduced me to it. He said the staff members are the same people who took care of him 20+ yrs ago. For food we ordered a gyro with everything, a 2 hot dog combo (comes with a drink and fries), and a side of mozzarella sticks. I INHALED EVERYTHING! My pictures aren't the prettiest, but come on, quality over IG worthy shots. The gyro was flavorful and cooked perfectly. The pita was grilled and had a good char on it. The side of mozzarella sticks were deep fried to the perfect amount of crispy which left the cheese pull game strong. I had a few of the fries and really like that they are thin. Whatever seasoning they use is really good! I'm not typically a french fry person but I might just be now, thanks to Doggie Diner. In the area or 4230340230 miles out of the area, I highly recommend checking Doggie Diner out. It's that GOOOOOOD

The skin is fried in such a way that it's almost separated from the meat, it's really yummy. We also got some fried rice with bulgolgi that was good, but a little greasy. Definitely fast food. We also got the corn dog type thing that was filled with cheese. Pretty yummy, but heavy. Good food, but for a cheat day.

I ordered 6 chicken tenders but only received 2, which was disappointing and set the tone for the rest of the meal. As for the sauces, the coop sauce wasn't really my preference--it reminded me a bit of coleslaw in sauce form. The honey mustard was fine, but nothing that stood out or elevated the meal. The chicken itself was very oily and lacked seasoning, to the point where the dominant flavor was just oil. It also didn't taste especially fresh and wasn't as tender as I was expecting from a place known for chicken. Overall, it wasn't a terrible experience, but it didn't meet my expectations given how popular this place is.

Lately, it's been more hit or miss. I still go, just not as often. The food is still good overall, and when they get it right, it reminds you why it built such a strong reputation. But there have been enough off visits, dry beef, inconsistent quality, and some app issues, that it doesn't feel like the same level it used to be. It's not bad by any means. It's still a solid option and better than a lot of places out there. But compared to what it used to be, it's taken a step back. Hoping it finds its way back to that 5-star consistency.
