I have been eating at Pinocchio's for over 40 years. Every time we go by the Grove, we stop by Pinocchio's

Not bad, not great...but a pretty small pizza for the price they're selling for. They do give a nice amount of toppings and the employees were sure kind enough but it doesn't justify the premium prices. I will say the crust has a nice buttery texture to it. The inside felt typical of a pizza parlor but it's certainly dated. This place would really shine if they offered some simple Italian American plates and desserts. Spaghetti & meatballs, chicken parm, lasagna...etc, and some cannolis or something. read more

Not sure who runs it now but its not worth the cost . Just not good pizza anymore. Spent 60 dollars on 2 medium pizzas

They tend to make a pretty darn good pizza. I order mine cooked just a little bit longer than normal and they are really good. They also have an outstanding salad bar to help complete the experience. read more

They never disappoint. I truly believe this is the best pizza I've ever had! Lived here from 2001 to 2012 and I come back every year to visit my kids and this place is our first dinner out, the best,don't change a thing, but offering shipping would be the only thing to change. read more

I'm not from Oregon, but every time we visit Pinocchios has always been a go to. The pizza is pretty good, not the best I've ever had but far from the worst. The staff was friendly, although not incredibly attentive. At one point, I was at the front counter and was ignored for several minutes, including one employee too engrossed in their cell phone to realize I was there. We had a large party and they took care of us overall and for the amount of food and beverages we didn't have to wait an unreasonable amount of time. The restaurant could definitely use a face lift but I didn't recognize anything unsafe or unsanitary. Overall, I'd recommend Pinocchios if you're looking for reliable pizza. read more

This was my husband's favorite pizza until this visit !! The lady who helped us was rude not only to us but the other staff, which I had seen her do before. Also our order was wrong . They left out part of our order and the large not cheap pizza didn't even look like food. read more

Pinocchio's Pizza - Tijuana pizza - Pizza Near Me - Cottage Grove, Oregon

I remember eating here when I was 10 years old and I'm well into my 30s now. It's always nice to see a local business continue on like that. Yesterday my husband and I took a trip down to Cottage Grove with a buddy of ours to spend the afternoon. We decided to eat here since my husband had never tried it and he loves pizza, plus it had been years since I had been in. Right now they're only doing takeout, so there's no eating in the restaurant. But I had planned for that. My buddy warned me it was greasy, so I was expecting to get sick later on as my body digested it. This isn't due to food being bad or undercooked or anything else. Greasy food simply doesn't agree with me, and so I was prepared for it. We ordered a medium half and half. One half being the Monstro's Madness with sausage instead of beef and extra green pepper rings. The other half was the DW Special. We were met outside by an employee to take our order and bring our food out to us, and she did fine. I have no clue what her name was, but she was pleasant. We all went to a nearby park to eat and do a Pokémon Go raid, which was fun. Our pizza was made the way we ordered it, and came with plenty of toppings. It was greasy, but not nearly as bad as my buddy made it sound. I ate it and didn't get sick at all. No upset stomach or anything, which says something for me. My husband's stomach is a giant gaping black hole, so the next time we'll order a large instead of a medium. My one complaint right now, which isn't that big of a deal, is they don't have any drinks available for purchase. We had to stop by a gas station convenience store to grab something to drink before eating. I totally get not having fountain drinks available since the Coronavirus, but it would be nice if they had bottled drinks instead, to save an extra stop along the way. I can't comment on the restaurant itself since we couldn't go in during this visit. I look forward to when I can, but right now I'm thrilled to see they're still open and operating. Would I return? Absolutely. I had no real complaints about my experience here yesterday. I can see why this business has been around for so many years, and I look forward to another visit. read more

Such amazing pizza, got a small pepperoni with sausage. Crust was crispy bite after bite. Amazed I came across this place.

We came in and it wasn't busy at all. We were able to order our taco pizza, two pepsis, and have a seat our choice of where to go. The food was brought out to us. We got the taco pizza. It was so tasty. The crust was crisp and the toppings continued to the edges. Not to mention their house ranch dressing to top it all off with was divine. Hands down good pizza. read more

Absolutely horrible!! I have given them enough tries to safely Say I will never eat their pizza again. First, prices do not accurately represent size or quality. Second, they put red sauce instead of refried beans on my taco pizza. very disappointing. All around taste and smell was off putting. Go to Crestwell for decent pizza. Do not give Pinocchio your money. read more

Great, adorable and old school pizza place. We just happened in because we are traveling and didn't want to eat more fast food. Great decision, the staff was so nice and helpful. We ordered a chefs salad, cheese pizza, onion and green pepper pizzas. The salad was freshly made with avocados, tomatoes, ham, cheese, boiled eggs it was just perfect. I liked that she offered the salad dressing on the side oh yes and a couple of saltine crackers. Cheese pizza was perfect for the kids, we loved their thin crust. The "adult" pizza was amazing freshly cut green peppers and onions and thick cheese was so delicious. They have a couple of old school games including PacMan. This is great for the kids while you are waiting on your pizza. The claw game was great but we didn't win a thing. The Pinocchio decor was very cool very old school, we all loved it. The food was delicious and the service was great, we are so glad that we came in. We will be back next time we are driving through. read more

We've gotten Pinocchio's a few times to go. Idk what it is, but there's just something about the pies that just don't do it for me. I'm at a loss for what it is. It's good, but I favor My Boys and Papas and Coburg. read more

First time there came from the coast and family meeting in the middle from a distance, along with kids in the area. The place is great for kids and large groups . pizza was par! ordered the almost 30$ pizzas and could you barely keep the toppings on as couldn't tell if there was sauce even on it and absolutely not any cheese to hold the toppings! pretty sure that cheese on a pizza is standard. not a drop what ever! 80+ later probably won't be back when we visit again. read more

The pizza sucked 7 eleven pizza is way better I would not recommend this place to anyone and the service is also extremely bad they took hours making my pizza and the pizza was cold. On top of that it was the flattest pizza ever it looked like you took flatbread pizza out of the freezer and left it out for a few hours to defrost. Also the cheese looked and felt and tasted like plastic maybe it was just the weird amount of oil but it was gross and was like bendable plastic. 0/10 I hate this place, the claw machine sucks too, it doesn't grip at all. for a dollar you think at least maybe the claw machine would be decent compared to the pizza but you'd be wrong. Do NOT come here read more

We passed by on the road and took a stab at it. I should have read the reviews first. The signage and parking was great and the name quite catchy. As we entered, we were greeted by a young lady that was nice and kind. The other two gentleman in the cooking area had no welcoming facial gestures whatsoever. Didn't seem like they were happy at all. We ordered three pizza and waited patiently. It came out looking good but it really didn't taste good. The crust seemed dry and too crispy and the toppings were cold. We asked for a side of marinara sauce and it came out fridge cold. OUCH! Paid over 50.00 for everything and I feel Pizza Hut or Dominos would have been better. I'm sorry but I would not recommend this place to anyone. Staff might consider having happier and more inviting personalities. read more

Great Pizza, Try it for yourself and see, crispy thin crust and fresh toppings. We have always had a great experience here. To go orders and dining in. read more

Best pizza with a great thin crust and fresh mushrooms. My go to is the number 11. A family favorite for over 30 years!

We were passing through and decided we wanted something other than fast food... Overall not super impressed mainly because of variety of pizza and customer service.. the combination pizza I got was good but it was like I walked into the twilight zone when I got there the staff were neither welcoming nor rude...just kinda there. The resturant was a bit dated but it was to be expected bc it's not a big town. They didn't have any chicken or white sauce pizza and the salad bar was run down. All n all its just ok. read more

I just paid over 21 bucks for a MEDIUM pizza. It's there version of a Mexican pizza. That being said, the main ingredients for a Mexican pizza are beef, cheese, beans. I called to complain about the lack of meat, they told me there was a whole 4 ounces of beef (pre cooked weight). When I got home and opened the box, I was startled at the lack of beef. I asked I'd they hid the meat under the cheese, they said NO. They were unapologetic and didn't offer to replace pizza. This is worse that Abbys (non) Legendary pizza! read more

Great pizza. Our favorite place in town for pizza. Much better than the chains. It's a thin crust wit fresh ingredients. It's too much money. Still nobody better in CG. read more

The owner Darrell E Willams watches pornography while he has minors working. Sometimes the minors have to hear his pornography because he is so old and forgets to turn down the volume. They also serve bad meat and slimy vegetables on their pizza because they are to cheap to toss out old food. They also add hair to many pizzas for flare.. read more

We did not have a very great time here. We ordered our pizzas in the parking lot and were not allowed inside at the time. We waited quite a while for two small pizzas and they weren't even that good. Would not go back or recommend. read more

I probably should have listened to the reviews or paid attention to the fact that there were no cars in the parking lot at 5pm on a Sunday. The person taking the order didn't seem to care if we were there. We ordered 2 pizzas with only 2 to 3 ingredients each pizza - both including tomatoes. They brought the pizza to our table saying "were these pizzas supposed to have tomatoes?" - then offered us a plate of cold tomatoe slices. Pizza wasn't the worst I've ever had, but was down near the bottom of the list. I honestly can't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Worst pizza EVER, I will never understand how people around here think it is good..but then there are a number of places like that here, I chalk it up to people not going outside their comfort zone and trying new/different places, like say Domino's which is a million times better and delivers ;) read more

I don't know how I'd change my review, if i were to eat here a few more times. But I've now been twice. Both times I've experienced good food and good service. But I don't in any way find this to be a top 10 pick for me, when the pizza cravings strike. I won't say anything is "bad" about Pinocchio's, per se.... but I'd rather make the drive to Eugene for pizza. Four stars because the service and food are both passable. A knock of one star because I feel like the prices are a wee bit on the high side in relation to the quality and quantity of food you get. Again... not that it's gross food. Nor is it so undersized that you feel you've been stolen from. It's just that I think they charge Papas Pizza prices (which isn't even awesome when Papas does it), and offer D'igiorno quality. Imho As with everything though... one persons least favorite place/thing is another's most coveted. Please do give them a go if you're nearby and need the pizza in your belly. But I really wouldn't recommend heading here if it's not already on your way. read more

This was a great stop for our road trip! The individual pizza's are very reasonably priced. Very fast service and a great selection. I got an oyster pizza and my wife got the Taco pizza. I can't give them 5star because I would like to see a better beer selection and have a choice of crusts. read more

Pretty good pizza.... until you get food poisoning. They have been a favorite place to go for my family for quite some time now, but recently my mother got horrible food poisoning, and when she called to tell them that, they offered her more pizza (?!? As if that's what she wanted?!?!) She also told the lady on the phone that she saw somebody handling tomatoes... WITH NO GLOVES!!! The woman told her that they aren't required to (which is bs because I've recently taken a food handlers test and passed and you are required to wear gloves and keep your hands clean.) I'm not trying to take down a decent business, I'm just letting everybody know that they should watch what they order. I hope that sometime soon they fix their cleanliness problem because they do make pretty good pizzas. If you're somebody who likes a good crunchy crust, maybe try it out. read more

I am originally from NY, so I have a high standard for pizza. I am aware of this and judge fairly. I would rather eat at Dominos than here. In addition to the fact that there pizza is sub par for taste, this is the only place I have ever heard of that charges for the box. Their pizza is already over priced, it blew me away to see they charged extra for the box on take out. Their pizza isn't even worth half of what they charge. Their service is about as good as the flavor of the pizza (which isn't good at all). read more

We walked in and the place was empty. The employees seemed surprised to see us, and didn't say anything until we found our way to the order counter where there was no visible menu. The pizza was freshly made but somehow very disappointing. The driving game in the corner was probably the best thing they had going for them. read more

I was talking to a buddy last week about how pizza was better, and how the quality of pizza has gone down over the years. We took a chance and ordered Pinocchio's , and we certainly were not disappointed. Perfect old style Pizza. Some people say it's expensive but, it's not expensive at all. You get what you pay for, if you want cheapsa go to a big chain pizza place. read more

Best pizza in the entire world and I've travelled the world. Spicy pepperoni and real yeasty crisp dusted cornmeal crust. Worth a stop off the freeway when traveling by. read more

What an absolute sh*t show! This place is a flipping joke, the salad bar looks like it's a week old. We had to take our WATER pitchers back 2 times bc there was black stuff floating around in both batches. The grouchy old woman behind the counter told got rude with my husband and told him it was from the ice. Who gives a flip where it's from, we don't want black stuff in our drinks! The rude old man moved our personal belongings to put a reserved sign on the table we chose. It did not have a reserved sign on it when we sat down. Don't touch my belongs #1, #2 your service and food quality was so awful I will be making a report to the health department. read more

If you like thin crispy crust this place is the capital of pizza crust it's amazing the best I've ever had

I've lived in Cottage Grove for most of my life. Pizza places have come and gone here, but Pinocchio's Pizza has remained. Nothing has changed at this place since I was a little kid - not the decor, not the furniture, and even the bathrooms retain that lovely 1970s orange. I love it. Everytime I step through the doors I'm taken back to 1970s childhood birthday parties. As for the pizza . . . . it's the best in town. It's not generic chain-store pizza with skimpy toppings. It is ultra crispy crust and loaded with toppings. And, contrary to a prior review, they WILL make half and half pizzas - we get them all of the time. I believe there is one pizza on the menu that they won't do half/half. read more

Don't let haters or stories of "Forks" scare you away. If someone truly had a bad customer service issue, that is not the norm. I Love the pizza as does my family, and extended. With a large fireplace going in the winter in the middle of dining area and a few video games it is good family fun. And fantastic pizza. The salad bar is small you might wanna take a look at it before ordering to see if you would be satisfied (it is right next to the drink station). The taco pizza is the best I have had and it is one of the few places left that you can get shrimp on your pizza. read more
