I thought all the Cicis were gone. I was thrilled to stop in for the early bird buffet. Everything was hot, fresh, and cheesy! I forgot how good their sauce and dough is. The staff were so friendly and attentive always offering to help or make a pizza for you. The restaurant was just as a remembered it. It was clean and had all the happy family pizza vibes you could want. Now that I know you're there, I'll be back Cici! read more

Cicis Pizza - Outside - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

This location needs serious attention from corporate and the health department. The dishes were dirty, several employees had no proper headwear, and when I mentioned that I'd previously found hair in my food, the manager said they didn't have to wear hair restraints. That's unacceptable for a restaurant serving open buffet food. The pasta tasted like mold, the floor was sticky, and the drink station smelled moldy. The only decent thing was the fresh pizza, but overall this place feels unsanitary and poorly managed. I won't be coming back until cleanliness and food safety are taken seriously. read more

My kids used to love going to Cici's but sadly all the ones in Raleigh have closed. While visiting Great Wolf Lodge we were excited to see a Cici's nearby. We had a great experience. Employees were friendly, restaurant was clean, and pizza and salad bar were consistently restocked. The salad bar had quite a variety of toppings, too! No, Cici's is not gourmet pizza but it is never as salty or greasy as many other pizza chains, and a buffet is a great place to take teenage athletes and hungry little boys. My nine year old nephew dubbed it "the best meal I've ever eaten in my life". read more

Cicis Pizza - Pizza plate for a long distance runner - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

There were so many signs not to eat here but i ignored them. Now one thing they did get right was "Welcome to Cici's" but it was downhill from there. For starters the price for adults is 8.99, i asked for 2 and the price was $25+. Please don't assume everybody drinks soda. I truly wanted water. I told the cashier i wanted a cup for water and she told me they no longer offer water out of the fountain and gave me a cup for a beverage. I went to pay and the pay system glitched so i waited in line about 3 mins looking at the screen the cashier turned towards me. When i interrupted the cashiers conversation (about a group chat about a pool party she was missing) & asked if there was something wrong (she didn't even realize) she called her manager to come reset the system and i was moved to the other register. The food bar was picked over, burnt & barely any cheese was on the pizzas. None of tables and chairs had been cleaned. I'm a pescatarian, why is there chicken bones under my feet? I ordered a personal pizza, waited for 30 mins only to be told they couldn't find my ticket. I put in the order again and by the time i got the pizza, 20 mins later i didn't even want it. read more

It's a pizza buffet, do not set your expectations too high and you won't be disappointed. Visited this location on a Friday evening and it was very busy. As most places are these days it was understaffed and the dining room reflected it. Cluttered is how I would describe it. Tables were being cleaned in a timely manner, but the dirty dish pans next to trash were full. Supplies like straws were out so I had to ask but they kept the pizzas rolling out, even making special request pizzas in a very fast fashion. I applaud the team for staying positive and working hard to keep the customers fed even when you were packed and didn't have enough staff. read more

Food and service is nothing like it was in the early 2000s. Workers don't use gloves they had a 93 rating the trash was over flowing the machine to get tokens didn't work to play the games read more

Enjoying hot delicious pizza, soup and salad! No wait time with an abundance of great tasting pizzas! read more

Cicis Pizza - Cici's Pizza inside dining Social Distance Enforced - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

It's cici pizza. You can't expect a fine dining experience when you goto a place that's cheap pizza and probably hard to fill their staff with low wages. Usually it's teenagers working there. But if you don't have super high expectation of a pizza buffet this place is good my son loves it. They always putting out new pizza and the staff is friendly read more

I love cicis pizza The service is great Idk what ambiance Haha Hghghhbn Ghost I don't know what to do with it I don't know what to e read more

Cicis Pizza - The first time you were able and - Pizza Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

First let me start with the hygiene. The tables were all dirty and I had to clean a table to actually use it. Its not even like they had no staff as the manager herself was just sitting on her laptop in a closed section of the dining area. I see very minimal effort being put into the care of this Cicis location. The soda fountain was also very dirty and has not been cleaned im a while. As for the the food it is 5 dollars so you get what you pay for. I am mainly annoyed by the presentation of the dining room. Do not get me started on the bathroom. Idk who decided to turn off the ventilation and let the smell reproduce itself infinitely. FFS reevaluate their sanitation score please! read more

Warning- not covid safe even with new regulations and case on the rise. The only reason I'm giving two stars is cause the pizza was good and some of the workers where very polite and friendly. But this site was a total fun house and not COVID safe at all. -No hand sanitizer anywhere. -Tables not regularly cleaned or sanitized with proper products -floors dirty -No one is wearing gloves after handling food, touch dish rags, and other tools handling money but then serving food without washing hands or using regularly changing gloves. - kids are running around with food in there hands and mouth back and forth to the game room and tables And No masks - unsupervised kids breathing all over the pizza sticking their face in the pizza while it's served to them from the workers Teenagers reaching around the buffet grabbing their own food, no masks. Masks not being enforced Workers wearing there pants so low I think it's actually falling off their ass..... Now I like CiCis. It used to be great, got dirty but then got better again and it looks lime it's losing it again It just shows the class of people who come here and I hate that I have to break my bank to go feel safe and enjoy a meal in a more pleasurable setting when it is simply a pizza buffet and should not be this bad. If covid wasn't such a big deal right now it would not be as big as an issue and kids will be kids to an extent, cause I believe in manners and courtesy of others. Have back bone and tell people wear a mask. Be aware of OTHERS especially during this pandemic. I'll leave with a positive note. Pizza was fresh and hot, salad and soup fresh and great. The workers where friendly. I'm Writing this cause I want the owner to take this very seriously and immediately. We have to take a lot of precautions for covid and to keep our business and economy up and running at the same time. Safe and effectively. read more

My kid loves this place and I do too. We try to come often as we can! Nice and affordable!

This was probably the worst experience I've ever had at a Cici's. This place was complete dog in my opinion, the place was so dirty and if a health inspector came here he'd shut this place down, there was dirt all over the tables and the floor, the plates were stacked to the fullest, the pizza tasted nasty, and don't get me started when I had to go wash my hands. All of the air vents in the bathroom were closed and off so when I entered the bathroom I almost passed out because of how bad the smell was, it's a literal hazard to hygiene and a cesspool of bacteria. This pandemic has been going on but the cleanliness of this place was complete garbage. If I could give this place a negative star I would, I highly recommend a health inspector pop in here without saying anything to see how nasty this place is. read more

Pizza was very good! Tables clean and service was very accommodating. The manager who was a young blond woman was extremely helpful and very good at her job. She kept cleaning where the food was and making sure things got done. Excellent worker!! I would recommend this place. It's clean and welcoming for families. read more

I will go here till the day I die. Best pizza, best price. Period. If you have a problem with cici's then get over it. They don't need your $5. If you don't like the taste, that's your problem. It's not cici's fault that you have an unsophisticated pallet. I would highly recommend the Alfredo Cheese and Zesty Pepperoni Pizza. Good stuff!! read more

Cici's is a buffet-style pizza restaurant for family-style eating. This location has a nice salad bar, fresh, hot pizza, low, low prices, and is nearly always crowded on weekends. I took my twins here tonight, and it was a mob scene. The help is cheerful and efficient. They know how to keep the food moving and the people moving and the mouths full. With a crowd like the one we saw tonight, it's hard for the bus boys to move through the aisles and clean tables, though. These people hustle! This is definitely a "strap on the proverbial feedbag," inexpensive, all-you-can-eat restaurant. I'm always sadly amused at the number of exceedingly obese people who frequent this place. Tonight, there seemed to be an inordinate number of flatulent fatties wearing stretch clothing and tattoos, and smelling like they hadn't bathed after afternoon orgies in the hog barn. The pizza was great, but the ambient odors from the guests were, well, off-putting to say the least! Even my 11-year-olds were grossed out by the egregious display of gluttony and poor hygiene! But, we're all guys, so that didn't stop us from eating. Hey, at these prices, with such tasty comfort food and no limits, you get all the hungry dregs of humanity. It's a freak show, but we'll be back with the kids. (I need to get to a real haute cuisine place soon, to recover from this!) read more

The places we go for our kids. Of course this is not anywhere I would pick out the blue for my husband and I(no shade). You can't bet the price and my kids like CiCis. The pizza is better when it's fresh, of course. They are slow putting new pizza out and keeping fresh food out. My husband ordered some wings and it took about 20 mins to get. Yes the place could be cleaner read more

We went late and pizza was average. it was a large group of us 20 or so. Pizza was hot and if they had a few more toppings on each pizza it would have good. Lots of thin crust hardly any toppings. Guess they want you to fill up on bread and not toppings You can order special pizzas at no extra charge which one person did,maybe ask for extra toppings read more

Their buffet is really good. The price is $6.29 per person all day long. They have a soup, pasta, salad bar and 15 different types of pizza. If you don't see your favorite pizza, they will make one for you. They have dessert options as well. I think their manager and service staff was changed. When we came today, we can feel the good difference. Their pizzas are more delicious and fresh, the service staff great. I can suggest this place is good spot for hangover Sunday read more

$5 for a pizza buffet?! I'm sold. Pizza's not going to be fanfreakingtastic, but it's hot and fresh with different combinations (mac n cheese on my pizza?? cool). Salad bar is lackluster, but what they do have is fresh and always stocked, and the counter is clean! Spaghetti and Mac'n'Cheese is basic, but I'm glad they have it. Everything is basic (except the pizza toppings), but it's all you can eat, family friendly atmosphere, with a super helpful staff. If you don't see a pizza that you want, they'll make it for you. Thank you CiCi's for letting me stuff my face for only an abe lincoln. read more

I mean everyone knows you come for the cinnamon rolls. The pizza is meh but it's only $5 so I mean what is there to complain about. The best thing is that you can order any specialty pizza you want and they will bring you a personal pan size to your table. If you download the phone app you can get rewards --for every 6th visit (I believe) you a get a free buffet. They also will send you coupons for free drinks every now and then. Giving this three stars because it was pretty dirty (as far as dishes on the tables throughout the restaurant) and they were very slow with putting out new pizzas. Pro Tip: Follow them on Instagram because every so often they do specials where you can BOGO (free) an adult buffet. read more

Came here with our Scout Troop. This was a GREAT time and great food. The owner/General Manager met us at the door and had a superb customer service focus. I think the rest of the staff fed off of his energy. The food was much better than I expected. I had never been to a Ci Ci's and my expectations were very low. I was quite surprised with the quality. It was no California Pizza, but the prices were WAY cheaper. The price was an unbelievable bargain. I would definitely come again, even if I didn't have to bring 30 teenagers with me. read more

I haven't been to CiCis in many years, so I didn't know what to expect on my visit. The buffet price went up, but the quality of food stayed the same. It is a cheap pizza place, so I'm not too critical of the food. The pizza was decent and got the job done. They also kept the place pretty clean which was nice. They had trouble keeping the pizza stocked which is the whole point of a buffet, so that took away from the experience. read more

Visiting family in Harrisburg, and had our first Cici's experience while in N.C. I'm not a huge fan of pizza, but I was impressed with the offerings at this Cici's. The place was packed with families, and lots of kids, but the workers seemed to handle everything well. The pizzas were constantly replenished, and hot. The small salad bar was kept neat, despite constant traffic flow. I didn't try the Buffalo chicken pizza, but heard it was a pretty good tasting concoction. The chicken noodle soup wasn't too bad, except the poor noodles were well past the noodle phase, and closer to mush. Typical of what you'd want at a pizza buffet, pasta, pizzas, salad, and soup. The desserts (brownies?) looked okay, and our order of chicken wings pleased everyone at our large table. I'm assuming it was the manager that was standing in the dining area, saying hello to customers, that made for friendly service. read more

I've been here many times but I've noticed that it has been getting slack with its quality and selection of pizzas. All I wanted is a veggie flatbread pizza which they usually have on deck. Not today. To get what you want you must custom order. Today apparently everyone had a order in a they actually ran out of numbers. I guess you get what you pay for so I shouldn't have too high expectations. read more

When we arrived at CiCis I was unaware of the closing time and it was still fairly busy so I didn't question it. I told the young lady at the register that I had a party of 10 (2 adults 8 children) She proceeded to give us cups and processed my card for $67.53 after she handed me my receipt she said "and just to let you know we close in less than 30 minutes". We got the children their drinks and went to the buffet and noticed most of the pizza was combined and not fresh. My partner asked if the staff would be putting out more pizza to which the cashier replied "yes the oven turns off at 9pm" my partner then asked for a BBQ chicken pizza. When they brought it out it was a small personal pan pizza. I went back up and asked the manager if we could get fresh pizza, with an attitude she replied "what kind" to which I replied "one cheese pizza and one pepperoni pizza" she didn't even acknowledge my request, just walked off. As I sat at the tables waiting, I noticed all the staff were cleaning, spraying and wiping things down. The manager then placed a pizza down at the buffet and I went to get slices. I get up there and there is one pizza, half cheese, half pepperoni. My party aside there were still quite a few people there so one pizza that's half of what I asked for is absurd. The employees continued to clean dishes and shut down the store. After feeling overwhelmingly frustrated my partner went to speak to the manager about the issue and the manager stated "we would've made more had you asked" with too much attitude to be managing any establishment. As we were packing to leave I could see the 3 main employees talking, joking, laughing and nodding in our direction. We ignored it and continued to clean, my niece ended up dropping a ranch cup on the floor so my partner asked the young man for a towel, I'm guessing because it was after 9pm (roughly 9:10) that customer service went out the window because he replied with such nastiness "it's napkins over there". Thank God there was a very nice woman sweeping the floor who offered to help clean the mess. I spent $70 on the equivalent of 2 pizza's for a party of 10, this is outrageous. read more

Great service and they kept fresh pizza coming! Good place to take the kids for pizza

Love CiCi's for the family. Great, clean restaurant. We came in at 8:54 pm and realized they closed at 9:00. There was 18 of us and the staff said if we wanted to stay, they would make another pizza of each one out on the buffet for us. They were so accommodating and nice. Kept checking on us. We felt guilty about it but they made us feel completely welcome. We will eat here anytime we are in town. Great place and wonderful staff! read more

Very disappointed tonight. Ordered a special pizza that wasn't on the pizza bar and it was never delivered. Manager was too busy texting on his cell phone to once walk around the restaurant. Poor service. read more

Use to love coming here to eat in and take out. Came for a take out order and they dont even have the value pizza meals anymore. So now u got to order each pizza if u want more then 1. Lets not talk about the people that was hanging outside the store. Going in and out with food and drinks. Just a very bad look read more

The place was clean, the employees were pleasant, and the food was good. No complaints. Probably the best CiCi's I've been to.

While the food is good, the restaurant itself is horrible. Upon entering it stank horridly. The floors are dirty and the tables are dirty as well. My daughter has noticed 4 flys. It smells like piss near the fountain drink machine. read more

Perfect place to go if you're looking for something quick, and easy. You can even place an order for your own customized pizza- included in the buffet! Pretty good for the price you pay. read more

I love his place. Great managers and great employees. Very friendly place and great fast pizza. I'm not knocking any stars for this but the only thing I have an issue with is how dirty the floors tend to be. Trash on the floors is not pretty. read more

This place has a nice little pizza buffet with a salad bar. Nothing fancy, but you'll get full.

Cici's is a place to get cheap all you can eat pizza. The pizza is on par with other chain pizza restaurants (better than hot n' ready's from little cesars, on par with domino's, maybe slightly under pizza hut or papa john's). This location is great and John the manager is one of the best in the business. He goes above and beyond what he needs to do to help the customer and make sure everything is going well. They will make you any pizza you ask for. Some suggestions: try the bbq pizza with added toppings (I like to get it with onions and pepperoni). My wife likes the mac and cheese with jalapenos. The cheese steak and cheese burger pizza are delicious as well. All of the thin crusts are good too. My wife says the salads are good too, similar to olive garden. Its a good place to eat a huge amount of decent pizza for very cheap. read more

I wish I could give a 0 star review because I would. I'm not even sure where to begin. I guess I'll start at the beginning of our visit. No one greeted us with your typical "welcome to Cici's." It was mumbled when we walked up to the counter. Pizza was decent but nothing I'll crave. Some tasted old and like it had been there a while. While we were eating my husband noticed that there was a teenager that was going up frequently. After the second visit to the buffet the teenager was putting pizza right on his hand not on a plan. Disgusted by this, I went to the manager on duty and explained to him how disgusting it was. He was like ok and no apology. Well he was standing at the buffet when the same teenager went back up. The teenager waited until the manager had his back turned and did it again! I honestly couldn't stand being in there and neither could my husband. He said something to the teenager and the teenager laughed and did it anyway. I will be calling to speak with manager tomorrow. I won't be back and I'll make sure I tell everyone not to go here either. read more

I mean it's cicis. You get what you pay for foodwise, but this particular location has an incredibly friendly and helpful staff. And I'm always seeing something about them giving back to the community. IMHO this sets them above. read more

I have eaten here a few times since I moved here for University. Great food at a great price. Ya can't get much better than that!

I am a regular customer of CiCi's pizza this was the first time I went to this location and I thought the service was great. The people were all smiles. I felt like I was in a great environment. The employees were always asking if everything was alright, most places should do that but don't so it was refreshing having that service. It was very busy but the way they managed to handle it in a fast pace was great. The only bad thing I have to say was that the employees didn't have name tags. I wish I could have stated everyone by name. I definitely recommend it and will be eating here more. read more
