It seemed like the restaurant was dealing with a huge rush, but they were both so calm, cool, and collected the entire time. We had an item missing from our order, and Des was incredibly attentive about it, checking in with us and following up until everything was taken care of. She was genuinely a great server and made what could have been a frustrating situation completely painless. And of course, the food is always amazing! My favorites are the hot honey, burrata & sausage pizza and the house salad which is seriously one of the best salads I've had. The buffalo cauliflower is also delicious, although I wish the portion were a little bigger! Great service, great food, and a great location. Parking can sometimes be a little challenging, but it's worth it. Again thank you, Des! We really appreciated you taking such great care of us!

As someone who is plant-based, it's so refreshing to find a pizza spot that isn't exclusively vegan but still offers delicious, well-thought-out vegan options. That can be hard to come by and Perfect Pizza absolutely delivers. Every pizza we ordered was a hit. Even our non-vegan guests were shocked at how good the vegan pizzas were. They couldn't stop talking about them! We'll definitely be coming back again. So grateful to have a place like this that truly caters to everyone.

Then I went to "Build Your Own" and priced a large thin-crust pepperoni pizza with a full order of Mojos. Total: $34.54. That's right. The "deal" saves you five cents. A nickel. Apparently, in 2026, five cents now qualifies as a promotion. Either nobody bothered to compare the regular pricing before posting the "deal," or Shakey's genuinely believes customers should get excited about saving enough money to almost buy nothing. I was looking forward to revisiting a childhood favorite. Instead, I got a reminder that not every "deal" is actually a deal.

Pizza Guys is hands-down one of the best pizza spots around! Their menu is packed with delicious options that go way beyond your standard pepperoni. Every pizza I've tried has come out fresh, hot, and loaded with flavor. The crust is perfectly baked--not too thick, not too thin--and the toppings are generous and high quality. What I love most is the variety: from classic favorites to unique specialty pizzas, there's something for every craving. Even their sides and sauces hit the mark, making it easy to turn a quick pizza night into a full meal. Whether you're grabbing takeout, ordering delivery, or dining in, Pizza Guys never disappoints. If you're a pizza lover, this place is a must-try! read more

Stumbled into Pizza Guys by chance and wow, talk about a happy accident! Ordered a custom pizza topped with applewood smoked bacon, canadian bacon, mushrooms, and pineapple on a spicy BBQ sauce. Every bite was a flavor explosion - the perfect balance of smoky, sweet, and spicy. The crust was perfectly baked! And about those cheese bacon rolls, let me rave about them for a second - golden brown, loaded with melted cheese, can't get better than that! The employees were super friendly! I'm already looking forward to my next visit to Pizza Guys. read more

Pizza Guys is a solid choice if you're craving a quick and tasty pizza. Their crust is on the thicker side, with a nice chew, and they have a good variety of toppings to choose from. The specialty pizzas are flavorful, and their deals make it pretty affordable. Delivery is usually fast, and the pizza arrives hot. It's not the absolute best pizza out there, but for a reliable, no-fuss option, it definitely hits the spot. Great for a casual night in! read more

I occasionally order from Pizza Guys, and I'm always impressed. Their pizza consistently delivers great quality--fresh ingredients, tasty crust, and flavorful toppings. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, making the experience even better. Although they don't sell pizza by the slice, the whole pies are worth the wait. Definitely a place I'd recommend to anyone looking for delicious pizza with excellent service! read more

They have paper menus on the counter but they don't have prices so you gotta wait for the revolving menu on screens, but its pretty quick so you can see all the food on the screens fairly quickly.
