    Large Cheese Pizza (Add Your Own Toppings)
    Maddie G.

    The food was great as always, pizza was fire and the mozzarella stix did not disappoint especially on the cheese pull however the sweet tea tasted a little funky. The server was okay, she did the bare minimum of her job so I can't really complain. Ambiance was okay as well not much to look at but usually you take pizza to go instead of sitting in the restaurant. Overall still my fav place to order pizza from!

    That pepperoni & bacon pie though

    This is the pinnacle of St. Louis style pizza, and it's not particularly close. Many will have you think that *a certain competitor with a larger geographical footprint that rhymes with Teemo's* is somehow in the conversation, but rest assured that people who think this are objectively and technically incorrect. As a matter of fact, when people say they don't like STL style pizza, they typically point the finger at said competitor, and there's a reason for that. Cecil Whittaker's has the best crunchy crust, semi-sweet sauce, gloriously melty provel cheese, variety of fresh toppings, and that magical seasoning. It's really just not fair how good this pizza is. For those curious how el presidente would rate this: 8.4, not his style, but elite nonetheless. As for this specific location/visit...amusingly my buddies and I stopped at the Wentzville location first only to find that it's a carry-out only store. No big deal, roll down to O-town at K & N for a sit down experience. The folks had 2 pies out in no time with the typical STL appetizer treats (toasted raviolis, fried shrooms, and that heavenly garlic cheese bread). One buddy loved the bacon/pepperoni offering while the other buddy was enamoured with the buffalo chicken pie. It's impossible to beat phenomenal pizza (at very reasonable prices btw) with great people and top notch service. Easily a 10/10 experience. Sidenote: Please come to KC.

    I have to hand it to the new owners at Cecil Whitaker's Pizza--this is hands down the best CWP I've ever had! Absolutely amazing. I went with the Crazy Deal buy one XL pizza get one half off! Great value. If you tried it before the new ownership, do yourself a favor and give it another shot. The difference is night and day. You can tell they care about quality and customer experience. Highly recommended!

    I used to enjoy Monday Night Madness before Covid. Everything was 1/2 off on Monday nights and the place was packed. This then became a carry out only option and with shortages of help - it is now empty - with lots of carry outs. My favorite now is the late night pizza special. A large 2 topping carry out is only $7.99 which is a bargain. I love the sausage and pepperoni or the Canadian ham and pineapple. Order a couple!

    Cold, wet fries glued together with cold, wet cheese

    I hadn't been here in awhile and used to really like their buffalo chicken salad but this time was underwhelming. You can definitely get a better quality salad pretty much anywhere else for $10. I also got the cheese fries... do NOT get the cheese fries! They were wet and the cheese looks like a slice of cheese that was as microwaved and then re-solidified.

    The back door is always open which is a health code violation.

    We hosted a gathering in the private room for a special event, and it was a wonderful experience…read more The service was attentive, and the ambience was warm and inviting. The restaurant used nice dishes, linens and place settings for each table. We ordered the lasagna and wings for the group, and everyone raved about how delicious they were. The food, service, and atmosphere made our event truly enjoyable. Highly recommend for private gatherings! There was an issue with their card machine so hoping that gets repaired is my only feedback.

I don't know what cheese they use but they were one of the top ranked cheese curds I have ever had (I've had a lot of cheese curds). The Ravioli looked homemade, which is good. The red sauce for them was the best I've had! I usually never use the red sauce but I actually chose it over ranch - what? Yeah. The Cajun Pasta was great with just the right spice. The Seafood Cannelloni was very good, very hot (they are not kidding) and the sauce was very thick. It was almost like gravy consistently. It tasted great but I am not 100% sure I am on board since I usually like it a little thinner. All in all the seasoning on everything was great, the staff is super nice with a family owned vibe (that's good) and cool decor to reminisce. I plan on coming back and bringing my family. It's definitely worth checking out and trying more dishes.

I guess that's why you inflate your prices to pay more labor, while they're on their phones, btw! There should never be more than three kids there at a time! You better check your competition they're all around $12 for a sandwich chips and a drink with tax! Get your head on straight before you lose your business!
