First time order -pick up (2) pizzas, combo appetizer along with order of garlic knots. NOT Impressed WITH ANY of it! Very salty, burnt and no taste. Glad it was purchased with a gift certificate ($100). Recommend saving your money and order franchise or FROZEN. Didn't bother contacting them ... hence the first impression made me NEVER order from AGAIN. Besides the oxymoron ..of reimbursement or free anything? ‍ NO THANKS! read more

Bravo, something must've really sunk in or it's under new ownership but this time we ordered a pizza and then the multi variety appetizer. The pizza was absolutely wonderful so different than it was previously. It had a very delicious rich sauce on it not too much just the right amount and the crust was cooked perfectly. The appetizer on the other hand needs a lot of improvement. The chicken wings had a wonderful barbecue sauce. The deep fried pickles were terrible. The coating on them just tasted like it was Old and the coated ravioli was overly cooked to the point where it was pretty much inedible. The price was pretty steep for everything we got. I think if it had been maybe 5 to 7 dollars cheaper would've been much better but keep up the good work fix those appetizers. read more

Great food and great service! We really enjoyed the Detroit-style deep dish and the thin crust pizza!

Great food last night , had the chicken Parmesan and Rigatoni, Malbec wine was very tasty. Service by waitress Ema was very good. Recommend read more

Used to love this place. In the last few months the food has been mediocre and the wait time has been unbelievably slow. My experience today was the worst. Ordered a water to start. Never arrived. Reminded the waitress when she walked by that I was still waiting for my water. She apologized. Still nothing. After 30 mins I walked to the bar and ordered my own water. It then took 45 minutes to get my food and the place was not even full. My bbq chicken panini was dry. I ate half. I have said after the last few visits I would not be back. I want to support local and gave one last chance today. I will not be back. I can say that the waitress was pleasant. read more

The food takes far too long to get to the table. Then it's burnt or under done. Service is mostly a miss. Save yourself some aggravation and just go across the street to Mancino's. In the same building as the shell station. Not the greatest, but better than CL Pizza company. read more

Waited 2 hours for our food because they never put it in. Even after multiple people asked if we needed help and reassured us the order was put in. Mr. Michigan, the manager, was not considerate or helpful and made excuses for not running his restaurant right. They had every opportunity to make it right or compensate us for horrible service and failed. The pizza was decent, the Detroit deep dish was solid, but the bruschetta was disgusting and there was hair in the ranch. Wondering if they spit in our pizza because we complained that it took 2 hours to get food they never put an order in for. Oh yeah we ordered in the restaurant. How do you even mess that up??? Drinks were good... gotta give credit where it's due. read more

Pathetic. A half hearted wait staff. Food was something I wouldn't feed my dog. Old clumped up ground beef couldn't be eaten. Cheese covered the top camouflaging the real disaster. Rigatoni was half broken up, which looked like leftovers. I scooped the noodles in another dish to highlight the strange ground beef. Another party with us ordered the same dish but looked completely different other than the broken up Rigatoni. Cheese on top was obviously a different kind as if they ran out and used two different styles of cheese. The same disaster awaited us below the cheese. Became more of a soup dish of left over ingredients. This dish had no meat obviously put together completely different. This was the second time with similar results. Both of the last two times the manager was holding court in the first booth with outside friends and one or two staff. Almost a sequel visit. Joking and laughing with paperwork spread out everywhere. You do not see this even at McDonalds. I will never, never eat at this badly run business again. If I was able to rate with lower stars I would and be in negative territory. Many mediocre visits in the past which were not the greatest, but the past two were disgusting. read more

CL Pizza - Disgusting - Pizza Near Me - Stanwood, Michigan

Got here at 5:40pm and left at 6:50pm. We (family of 4) never got served. Sat there waiting to order the margaritas special, pizzas and appetizer. No servers looked at us. Waited an hour and left. read more

Walked in and seated ourselves. Sat for 10 minutes with ZERO acknowledgment that we were even there. Walked out and no one seemed to care. We were the ONLY ONES in the dining room. read more

The staff is very friendly, the service is prompt, and the view (outdoor seating) is terrific. Our granddaughters really enjoy being able to vote to the restaurant and dock right in front of it. Despite all the positives, the one thing that should not be a problem is the biggest negative. It's the pizza crust. I'm not sure why they still can't get this right, but the center of every pizza we've ordered has soggy (warm raw) dough. The edge crust, outside bottom crust, and toppings are cooked to perfection. However, the dough near the center of the pizza is always soggy. Maybe soggy isn't the correct word. Maybe "goopy" better describes the dough. We have given CL Pizza nearly a dozen opportunities over the past two years - both in person and through takeout - to get this right, but they simply cannot. It's a shame, because we really try and support local businesses in the CL community, but at the same time, we cannot keep spending money on their namesake product when 1/4 to 1/3 of its bottom crust is inedible. read more

We stopped here with some friends to grab a pizza. We tossed it up in the air which place to go and CL was the choice to try. That was an unfortunate decision. The place is fairly clean and the atmosphere is nice. The issue was the speed of service and the quality of food. The waitress was not rude in any way but only returned to our table very seldomly to check on any needs, changes, or status. The place had two other couples inside with us and we waited for over an hour for our food to arrive. We nearly left without it arriving. The couple behind us also had service issues and was not happy with the speed of the food delivery. When the food did get to our table, it was not very good. The pizza was similar to frozen pizza. I would actually go so far as to say I have had better frozen pizza. I would not recommend coming here for pizza. We didn't try anything else so I can't attest to anything else. They did have a few people waiting to pickup food, which could have been the reason ours was taking so long. Either way, I can't recommend going. If you do, leave plenty of time. read more

I didn't like the pizza sauce used. Service was ok. Atmosphere was fine. Menu could be better. read more

The food was so good, the salads where great, the bread sticks where super soft and fluffy with ranch and the pizza was so good. It had a nice crunch on the bottom and a nice doughy middle like a good Detroit style. The service was great as well. Super kind and helpful and the place was so cute inside! read more

Great food and great people. Love their drink specials! $6 sangrias on Mondays and they have Young's Winery's new Peach Bum on tap for it!

Ambiance, staff great. Pizza not good, needs overhaul & better dough proofing, fresher ingredients not canned or pickled, mix of cheeses not so much mozzarella, try Munster, balsamic atop margarita pizza doesn't go w canned tomatoes & sauce was like tomato soup instead of pizza sauce on any of the pizzas. Pizza oven seems too cold, dough not cooked in center of hand tossed & very flat. None of us could eat any of them unfortunately & garbage can won. Will try again-other food, since staff was so kind, welcoming, quick & ambiance so warm & inviting. :). read more

The service is always great . The floor manager really cares that everyone is well taken care of and goes above and beyond to make up for any issues that can happen on a busy night. We've enjoyed dining in and drinks up at the bar or outside. The bartenders seem to really enjoy their job. The food is always delicious. We love the cheap burger pizza, and the loaded tots. Always more food than what we can eat. My children have gotten the children's sized cheese pizza a few times. It's always way too much cheese for their preference. Hard to cut or even take a bite. So if you don't want a lot of cheese just ask for them to go light on it. The place is located near boating docks and an ice cream/coffee shop. Always clean. read more

Depends on the day, have had great service but most of the time you feel ignored by the staff my pet peeve is when I walk in seat myself and then nobody even looks at you for 15 minutes You have to go to the bar to request service. Food has always been good just need to work on customer service. read more

The pizza was delicious and the service was impeccable! Thank you Kara for doing an amazing job!

A few girlfriends and I stopped in while we were up north for a girls weekend. It is such a fun atmosphere and had great food and service!

Kylie is an amazing server. She kept our drinks full on trivia night, and made it even more enjoyable.

Nice selection of menu items and the staff is very friendly and helpful..The Detroit pizza is exce.

Taylor was literally the best server I have had anywhere in a very long time. She dealt with our difficult large party wonderfully, she was attentive and super sweet.
