Very good pizza inn buffet. You walk in and pay the attendant, you seat yourself. They have a salad bar with fresh romaine and iceberg lettuce, your choice or you can mix the two like I did. They had soup and macaroni salad and a pasta bar. The pizza was fresh, I asked a gentleman for a request and he put it in very quickly and even came out and told me it was on the bar. All you can drink soda from the machine. I love their crushed ice. Overall, a great pizza buffet. Great, fresh pizza. read more

Disappointed. The pizza was fair, but we didn't realize it was a buffet. New to town and starting to try out the local restaurants. You pay as you walk in. We were first asked if we wanted the buffet. I asked for a menu and was told they didn't have one. We weren't invited to go look at the buffet- it was probably assumed that we knew what they were about. We ordered a large pizza. In my opinion, the price was a little high. It seemed more like a medium. It wasn't bad, but we've had better. I don't think the thin crust is made in house. There were no straws at the soda station. When the girl brought out pizza it, it was in the take out box, which is fine, but she didn't bring plates or ask if we needed them. This is truly a self serve restaurant. My husband also mentioned that the men's room wasn't very clean and smelled of old urine. A little housekeeping is in order. read more

This place has went down hill. Way over priced for the food and service. The kids working at the front counter are only interested in talking with each other rather than doing their job.At least 10 to 12 tables that still had dirty dishes on them for my entire visit and no one cleaning up. Had to get up and get our on glasses and the drink machine was nasty. Most of the pizza on the buffet was old and not fresh. I would stay clear of this place. There's plenty better to choose from here in oak ridge. read more

The Pizza was sitting for quite a while. They really didn't bring anything hot and fresh out. This was my first time here and my last. The Pizza in not good at all. I was very disappointed. read more

I would give this place 0 stars if I could. Horrible service, the buffet was bare and what was on it was cold, the floors were sticky as well as every other surface, and the arcade ripped my kids off about $10!! Do NOT recommend. read more

Friendly staff is the only reason that I'm giving them a two instead of one. The pizza was not good, even when we asked for fresh. The salad bar did not look fresh so we decided it was best to avoid it. The soda options were almost all out of service but luckily they did have diet mtn dew. None of the TVs were on and the game room was dark. What happened to this place? read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. Hardly any pizza and if it was out it was cold. None of the games nor candy vending machines were working and did not sit well with my young kids. I have no idea how this place is still in business. read more

Great food, staff were amazing, bar was stocked with fresh hot food, restaurant was clean, and bathrooms were spotless.

Saw that this place had decent reviews on trip advisor, and I soon learned to never trust trip advisor. The place was dark and dirty. Two employees just stood at the register and didn't acknowledge us when we came in. We have never been here before so we didn't know how it worked. After paying they just said "you're good". Good for what? Where are the cups? Do we just sit anywhere? Multiple dirty tables with dishes piled up and there were far more employees than customers (we were the only customers besides a school group that left soon after we arrived. The pizza all looked like it was sitting out for days and tasted dry and disgusting. No flavor to the watered down pasta. The salad bar was okay. Between the two of us not one single pizza slice was finished from how gross it was. One slice even broke in half from being so old. Needless to say we will not be coming back here! Horrible food and the employees just play on their phones or stare at you making it uncomfortable as you're attempting to eat their "food". Save your money go anywhere else. Any fast food pizza place is far better than this place! read more

No free buffet for Vets today as in previous years? The cashier told that me Vets only get a "10% discount". Pretty sad Pizza Inn, pretty sad..... Not sure how my account says "new haven, CT" i live in Oak Ridge, TN and that is the Pizza Inn I went to today read more

Came in door had to pay first plus give tip eventhough you have to serve yourself drinks and food. Food was cold and appeared to be sitting out for awhile. Salad was wilted. Tables were not bussed. Nasty place. Do not waste your time. Brought wife and kid leaving 1 other family in the dining room. Good thing too as I couldn't order a pizza either. read more

It's a step up from CiCi's. The buffet was kept clean and full. Nice salad bar! Everything tasted good. Good place when you're craving pizza. read more

Great pasta sauce and pizza was delicious. Calm and clean . Great place to take kids or have a kids birthday party.

My expectations were set very low and it was worse than expected. Dirty and rude customer service. The food was cold and found a finger nail in the food. Never ever ever come here I'm begging you. read more

We eat at Pizza Inn on most Fridays before game night. We keep coming back because the food is always fresh and delish, the service is great, and the ambiance is the good ol pizza buffet with gumball machines and coin slot games. Don't come for the games though, come for the amazing food - pizza, dessert pizza, pasta, salad, sooo good! read more

I'm new to the area and I drove here thinking it would be a good spot to go. Doors were locked and place was shut down. The sign on the door states the operating hours and they should have been open. It looked like a newer location, so I figured maybe they haven't had a "grand opening or official opening" yet. Three more times I go there and still completely closed. Not even sure if the place ever opens. read more

Okay. 5 stars for three reasons and it isn't because of the servers. This location has REAL bathrooms! The nice ones, like at Belk, where the wall goes all the way to the floor and doors without "a view"! They have great music playing. None of that mess with words no one understands. They could use to tune the station in a bit better but it was a rainy day so maybe the signal was weak. The pizza buffet and salad bar are FRESH!!! Yes. FRESH! If you've been to CiCis or Snappy Tomato and tried their hot pizza buffet...don't fret. This is SO MUCH BETTER! Pizza was flavorful and most were thin crust which put a skip in my step! KUDOS to the salad prep gal! I don't expect any gastrointestinal illness after enjoying it. Fresh EVERYTHING! Of course I've already posted about pellet ice which iced the cake AND slammed a cherry on top! The servers seem...well...unnecessary in this location. I sat down and SAT for 5 minutes before I got up and asked how this restaurant works. I had stepped out to bathroom. Came back to a beverage. No server. Do I order? Just go up there? No clue. I got up and mentioned I had never been here before and I'm not sure what to do. I was told, "have at it". Hmmmm...I would advise the management to do a training refresher. I plan to hold a light business gathering here in the future and also a bingo night if I can snag the meeting room!!! read more

Paid 13.50 just me ,got water. Should you try this? Well little Cesars better . You can taste many kinds of pizza but it's not worth it . Pizza is decent right out the oven , looks like frozen pizza that's sat a while after a few minutes. Salad bar was decent . read more

This place is mid. Honestly just better if you go to cicis' pizza. The cinnamon sticks weren't even cinnamon sticks they were sticks...They cooked the dessert better than they did the actual pizza, and the dessert wasn't even good. The crust was burnt. read more

Visited the restaurant on 9/17/23. Go in pay for my family's meal. Clerk says oh it's asking for a tip, so I leave a 15% tip. The second I tap the screen for it he says oh you get your drinks over there. So no server. Who's my $8 plus dollar tip going too? Then all the workers behind the bar are just standing there talking. Not one person asks us if we'd like any certain kind of pizza. We're there for about an hour and they only set on one new pizza. Everything on the salad bar is cross contaminated. There's olives in the pudding, cheese in the bacon bits that are at least 3 to 4 containers away from each other and lettuce in the other ingredients. This might not seem like a big deal but if it's the ceasar salad mixed in with the other stuff that's a danger to pregnant women. Finally someone comes out checks the salad bar and only picks up one stray piece of lettuce on the outside. At one point the clerk disappeared and customers are just standing there waiting. We also had to ask for kid cups because there was none out. The only person in the restaurant working is the lady bussing the tables and she's having to run to the counter to help customers too. Also while we are there one of the workers stops and gives my husband a really mean look the entire time he's fixing his plate then suddenly notices that I'm watching him jumps and runs behind the counter. What was up with that? On top of all this the food was mediocre. Don't waste your time and money people. read more

I don't come often, but when I came today at 1 nobody was there, the doors were locked, and nobody answered my phone calls. Not to mention, there was no note on the door saying why they weren't open. Me and my family drove from Rocky Top, to eat there specifically. Needless to say. We are all tremendously disappointed, and probably will not be back. read more

3 adults and 2 kids on a Sunday evening $50, all in. Lackluster pizza served on a buffet with constant shortages, pizza slices are cut razor thin and you end up grabbing the food with your hands since the pies are not cut all the way through. Not all the food advertised was available, no wings for example. The salad bar looked depleted. Dessert pizza selection was very limited. Staff have a 'tude' going that doesn't help. This is a noisy place. Not worth the money, we won't be back. read more

We were planning on heading to Knoxville for CiCi's Pizza for the buffet when a family member said, "I think Pizza Inn has a buffet." We decided to give it a shot -- having no expectations at all. At first we were concerned that it was going to be too pricey to take our large family (8 of us), but with $7.49 per person, we saved the gas money to Knoxville. Not only that, but we mentioned that my son (20) had gastric bypass surgery and would only be able to eat 1 or 2 pieces of pizza. They charged him for the child's buffet and he felt better about eating out with us. As for the selection of pizza, it was quite surprising. I went up for the pepperoni and while I was there, a gentleman stepped out and asked if I had any special requests or dietary needs. I said, "I've never been here before, so I don't know." He said, "I'll make you a sampling of what we have." A little bit later a young man stepped out and said, "Macaroni and Cheese!" -- and yes... it was mac and cheese pizza. Then a moment later I heard, "BBQ Chicken!" -- and it was a BBQ chicken pizza. Now, I'm a traditional pizza guy -- I don't even like the white sauces or green sauces on a pizza. But I was feeling daring and took a slice of the BBQ chicken pizza, a slice of the "burrito pizza" (imagine a Taco Bell Burrito Supreme opened flat -- but on a pizza crust instead of a tortilla. I have to say that the BBQ pizza was absolutely delicious. Sincerely the best piece of pizza I have had in Tennessee. All of the other pizza's were good, but the BBQ stood out. The wait staff and hostesses were a delight and I felt welcomed and well taken care of. I will definitely be back. read more

Pleasant staff and respectable thin crust pizza for a very affordable price. The food here was definitely worth what we paid and I was quite happy to see that they have a salad bar as well. Oh, they have some darn good dessert pizzas too. They really hit the spot to end the meal. Thanks Pizza Inn... time for me to go take a nap. [see what I did there? inn... nap... ah forget it ;) ] read more

Stopped here on a whim. Pizza buffet was awesome and if the type of pizza you wanted wasn't there they make it for you. The desert pizza was awesome too. The servers were on top of everything making sure our drinks were full, cleaning the table etc. $6.99 all you can eat was affordable and they had cute guys cooking the food. read more

Usually the service is hit or miss, but they've been doing a great job lately so I think they deserve a good review. Food was fresh and nice variety, service was quick and friendly, and overall a good experience. Keep up the good work! read more

The first time we went, we had the buffet which was not so good. The wait was not terrible but it was a weekday and lunch time. The second time, we ordered a pie and it was very good! The wait this time was horrible. Nobody at front, one person in charge of too much. Third and final time, called ahead to order, someone came to front quickly but left as I was signing reciept to help others sit and seemed to forget about me. Again, hire more workers. Was told "thin crust" is their "regular" crust. It was hard, plastic feeling and just awful. Was better MICROWAVED. Never going here again! Hire better cooks and more staff greedy corporate! read more

Thus a great pizza place. The food is great and the arcade is awesome. All of the great things. The salad bar serves not just salad, but chocolate pudding read more

Mediocre food, high priced, and bad service. Not sure why this place even has servers if they never come to your table.

The food sucks, but Ben(the hunky waiter) was a doll! The food was unbearably cold. The place seemed overstaffed and underflavored. My life has been unchanged due this terrible experience. May you never have to eat at this place in your entire place again. read more

Buffet was great and staff was very attentive . What ever pizza you want thay make. Love the loaded bake potato pizza and the bbq chicken pizza. Will definitely come back. read more

Food was great and not costly. Experience was heightened because of the manager on duty named Cindy. She went way out of her way to help me with a receipt issue I had. I used to be a manager in customer service so I appreciated it a lot. Awesome stuff read more

They are good about keeping the buffet filled with pizza as long as there are 10+ customers in the restaurant which is understandable, however, even when they have just put a pizza out, half the time it already seems cold! I really can't stand cold pizza. But for the most part this restaurant is alright. Most people would enjoy it I think. read more

I arrived at this restaurant at 5:45pm. There's a sign at the door that says "Please wait to be seated". There was no Hostess at the podium. Beside the podium, at the cash register, was a young woman on the phone and refusing to look at me, or even acknowledge my presence. Ten minutes tick by and still no hostess, not even an acknowledgement, and the young lady is still on the phone. I figured they really didn't want any diners eating at their restaurant, so I left and ate at another local restaurant. Thanks for nothing, Pizza Inn of Oak Ridge. read more

This restraunt is great when it comes to food, and is great with customer service. I recommend going here if you live in the oak ridge area

This place used to be good went here last weekend and they have definitely went down hill salad was Brown had no pizza out had to wait so long for a refill I got up and filled up my own drink very disappointed in this place oh yeah and don't drink the water I will not be back=( read more

Was so not impressed. There were maybe 9 tables that had people seated at them, so not busy at all, there were hardly no pizzas out and what was out was cold. Thought the pizza itself was more bland. The crust could have been more flavorful. The whole time we were there they only put out 2 pizzas and one thing of cheese bread. For the price of what we paid, I personally thought it was steep. Although I will say the chocolate chip dessert pizza was the bomb. read more
