    This place in Hollister is always great. A thin crust pizza....great toppings....great sauce. And the house seasoning...gee, it just makes the pizza really sing!

    Great pizza near the Branson area without the traffic and huge crowds. We started with the spinach artichoke dip which was served with slices of delicious garlic bread. Then we ordered three types of pizza. The crust on the pizzas is delicious-cooked perfectly with a little crispiness. The toppings were abundant on our Chef's supreme pizza. It was great. I didn't try the pepperoni pizza that we got for our kids who like to keep things simple, but they enjoyed it. And one of them did branch out and order a small bacon chicken ranch pizza, which was surprisingly good as well. Service was friendly and efficient. Give this place a try if you are in the area.

This visit, the…read morefood was back to being good - BUT, this place is pricing their stuff to the moon for what you get. A large meat pizza: $43.25. And let me tell you, the pizza is only a 14"....not that deep. I don't mind paying...but this is so out of line compared to what you get. Even a straight pepperoni or sausage pizza..you're paying plenty for what you get. Good taste...but dang have they continued to raise the prices. Salad for 2: $20.75 and the salad is smaller than it ever used to be. Toppings aren't as plentiful as they used to be. And the dressing...the salad didn't have squat. And I paid 2.50 more to get a couple of sides of more dressing....and they're coming in the small plastic ramekin. Gee, give me a break with the nickel and dime junk...when you're already charging $21 for the salad. I have always loved this place. And I can pay whatever....but out of principle...I won't for this place anymore. Sad...as I'm from Chicago and love what this place offered in the past. But now...I suggest Pizza by the Chef in Hollister. Want a meat pizza...Hercules at that place is awesome.

    Arriving to our resort close to dinner time, I started browsing for some local pizza places I could…read moreorder from. Ozark Mountain Pizza came up as an option not far from where we were staying so I decided to try it. I ordered online the first time (yes we ordered multiple times). It took no time for our order to be ready and it was waiting when I picked it up. I couldn't wait to get home to try the garlic knots so I popped one in my mouth in the car. Divine! It was garlicky, pillowy, and delicious! When I got back to the resort (less a couple garlic knots), we popped open the pizza box and the salad. When I say that I have never seen such fresh lettuce in my life, I am not kidding. It was green and not full of big old chunks of lettuce ribs. It was PERFECT! The pizza was also perfect. Crust pillowy like the garlic knots. Perfect amount of greasy deliciousness. The SECOND time was a few days later when we called and ordered delivery. Same order as before with different toppings on the pizza. Our order taker was very pleasant despite us debating back and forth amongst ourselves the 10:30pm delivery time (it was 9:00pm at the time) and figuring out toppings. It is a true testament that we ordered despite the late arrival time. The delivery driver was super nice and had no problems finding us in our complex. The food result was the same as before - delicious! I can't recommend them enough!

    We met a delivery driver for this restaurant in our hotel lobby. He was friendly and helpful,…read moreanswering our questions and selling his pizza to us - so much so that we turned around and created an account and placed and online order for delivery to our hotel! The service was easy to use online with a 20% off coupon offered for the 2nd order online! They offer family specials and we took advantage of the 2 large pizzas for $32 - plus added some sides and a couple of two liters (sold cold) with cups requested for us to share our drinks once the pizza and drinks arrive! Thanks for the easy ordering process and great food! Might K add that the delivery driver was lit together and. Or sloppy or skinny. It makes a difference when the presentation is clean and the manners are great! The sales skills were awesome too!

    I use to go there quite a bit but today I have to put a huge complaint in!…read moreI called in a order for pickup for two personal pizzas. This guy named Will took my order. At first he seemed nice. I placed my order and told him that my husband will be in to pick it up. He asked if I wanted hand tossed and I said YES! When my husband brought the pizza and salad home, my husbands pizza was hand tossed and mine was FLAT! My husband when he got there also ordered me a House Italian salad with artichokes. When he got home the salad had no artichokes. So I decided to call Pappos and talk to the guy Will whom took my order. He told me I told him to make one hand tossed pizza and the other flat. Which is nothing but a lie! Why would I ask for flat when I always ordered hand tossed? I have ate there many times and always get the hand tossed. I also told him that there were not artichokes on the salad. He said, mame, I didn't make the salad! So that made it ok that the place messed up on my order and thats how he responds. No sorry, we will make it right? So I got very angry and he said to me mame I don't have time to talk to you I'm very busy??? Thats how a customer is treated when they go to Pappos? I asked for the managers name and I will be stopping by tomorrow to let the manager know that I will not be back! This Will needs to be either reprimanded or fired for how he talked to me.
