Hand tossed and excellent pizza. Convenient, clean, comfy and trendy. Great salads too! The service was friendly and helpful.

Visited Dewey's with the family recently. We had our periodic family dinner outing and my wife chose this restaurant. Upon arrival, the place was nearly empty, which we enjoyed because we were able to seat ourselves. Our waitress was very friendly and she brought us some of their tasty Coke products. For dinner, we requested a large pizza. My wife requested Caprice on her half and I requested Edgar Allen Poe on my half. My son requested pepperoni and sausage on his pizza. In a short time, our pizzas were delivered. I let ours cool off for a few minutes while we chatted. Then I sprinkled some red pepper flakes on my slices and chowed down. The pizza wais fresh and delicious, as always. I very much enjoy scratch made pizza and this place serves it up to order. We'll be back.

Don't you believe it.

Sad, they spam me with offers but when i call to make an order, they refuse. 2 people said no. Poor service, and always liked the food in past. It was always good. Oh well, on to another place, not the only pizza in town.

Caprice pizza - canned tomatoes were overly sweet; Ned's a red sauce for balance
F.R. B.

Consider the star for the food, but even that is generous. The crust is bland. Many of the toppings are not fresh. The balance of flavors on specialty pizzas is lacking. You will not find good food here. Nor atmosphere. Most especially, you will not find good service. We have been looking for a pizza parlor for a time. All of the parlors have stopped taking dine in orders. Delivery is fine, but sometimes, we want to dine in. We were excited to find Dewey's. Being at the mall is definitely annoying, but a full service parlor with a small but decent beer selection seemed ideal. The inside was clean and the show of the kitchen crew tossing the dough provided lackluster visual interest. However, the service was incompetent and antagonistic. We were there on the freezing day before Christmas. The roads were terrible. The dining room was empty. The service had plenty of time to be attentive. The service was divided between two young persons who must have been teenagers. They behaved as if they had never had a job before. They were just barely friendly, not knowledgeable of the menu, and untrained in serving a family with a small child. Despite their lack of skill, they were fine. If all we had to deal with were a couple of young, incompetent servers, it would've been fine. However, about 1/3 of the way through our meal and almost immediately after telling our server that we would likely take some time to allow our child to eat at their pace, another employee came over. Without even asking us, she attempted to shove a pizza box on our overcrowded table. The staff had put three stands down the center of our booth. Clearly, they were unaware that pizza stands are designed to hold two pizzas. As well as three stands, we had three glasses, three plates, pepper and cheese shakers, and napkins. Our table was OVER full. No one should have crammed so much onto our table...actually, Dewey's should use bigger tables. Pizzas take up space, and we had ordered small pizzas. Everyone had ignored us, and we had moved a stand and tray to a neighboring table. The young, unskilled servers, despite having zero other tables, never offered to clear our table to make space. So over comes this new person. Without asking us anything and certainly without trying to clear some space, she proceeded to shove an empty box onto our table. It would not fit. There was no room. The box would have hung off the edge of the table. When I asked what she was doing, she said she was being helpful. When I told her we didn't ask for a box, we might be taking our time to eat, and that there was no room for it, she stormed off. She said, "I'm not arguing with you." Clearly communication was not something anyone ever taught Rachel, because she refused to engage in any appropriate communication. We finished our meal uncomfortably. We cleared another tray off our table and had to ask a server to take our plates. We had to request a box when we were done eating, because no one could be bothered to provide us any service. Could the service get worse? Yes. Since pay is at the register, we had to interact with Rachel again. Instead of apologizing for the poor service and rude interaction, she doubled down on her bad behavior with faux, sickening sweet greetings. I asked for her name and she provided it and asked for mine. When I told her it was none of her effing business, she made sure to read my card so she could use my name in a pointed and sarcastic manner. I had enough and called her an a**hole. I have zero tolerance for such poor service and Rachel is certainly deserving of the title. Despite the poor service, I tipped our servers $35 each. They were unskilled and untrained but with Rachel as the apparent manager, I didn't want to punish them for such a toxic work environment.

Half artichokes, roasted red peppers, and fresh basil, half pepperoni and banana pepper
Katie H.

I love Dewey's! Definitely one of my favorite pizza joints in the area. You can dine in or order for pickup...I usually order my pizza online and pick it up in store to take home. They have several unique pizzas and salads and a good variety of toppings to create your own. Most recently I got artichokes, roasted red pepper, and fresh basil and it was delish! The crust is thin and the pizza isn't greasy...it doesn't make you feel super heavy or gross after which is a huge plus. I wish they delivered but definitely not a deal breaker. Totally recommend!

RYAN'S INFERNO KILLER VEGGIE
Ali S.

My favorite chain pizza spot! Deweys is one of my favorite spots to go when I just want to eat a lot of food. Their pizzas are absolutely delicious and they don't make you feel too heavy afterwards. My favorites are the killer veggie, Ryan's inferno, and the caprese. They have a ton of other great options though as well as the option to create your own. You can also do different toppings on the two halves of the pizza, which makes it super easy to split with friends. When I dine in with friends they always have amazing service and are very receptive to specific requests and substitutions. The pizzas are also delicious to go and I recommend heating the pizzas up in the oven to crisp them. Just make sure not to get it too crispy. The pizza isn't the only amazing part though. Their salads are super unique and taste super fresh. Their calzones are also great to try if you want to switch it up. They are super doughy and cheesy, a great option to try, but I wouldn't recommend getting it to go.

the Elote is almost gone and the ol' faithful pepperoni and banana pepper is barely touched. life changed.
Rick W.

i've always considered Dewey's to be an average pizza place - one that won't let you down but is otherwise unremarkable. that was, until this last Sunday... Danielle and I had to run to my office to drop something off and we went to Dewey's for lunch as it was nearby. upon our arrival i was reminded that the current pizza special was an elote pizza and it intrigued me. though i still had reservations. we agreed to order a small one and a small "go-to" pepperoni and banana pepper. folks, i gotta tell you, my life was changed that day. i'm of the mindset, normally, that pizza requires red sauce. that's just my preference. this pizza had no red sauce but was F'ING INCREDIBLE. it had olive oil, mozzarella, fresh roasted corn and poblano peppers, red onions, queso fresco and was finished with a drizzle of housemade Tajin crema after the bake. we opted for NO CILANTRO because why ruin a good thing? seriously, i loathe cilantro. we devoured that pizza - each trying at least one piece of the other before returning our attention to the main attraction. i immediately regretted only getting a small. though it may not have warmed up well - with the crema and all. the crema, by the way, was the sleeper here. just delicious. i wish this was a permanent addition to the menu because i don't live near a Dewey's so i'll likely not have another chance to get it before it's gone. anyway, if you're reading this, stop. go immediately to Dewey's and get yourself (and me) an Elote pizza (no cilantro).

Ryan's Inferno Pizza
Jordan B.

Dear Yelpers, Get ready for the Pizza Pie that will change your life! Ok maybe an over exaggeration but definitely an amazing pizza. Dewey's offers the full experience with an open view into their kitchen where you can see the chef's tossing dough. The kids love it and secretly the adults do too! The plethora of pies to choose from is different and exciting! Not just your normal pepperoni and sausage. More like a smorgus board of luxury pizza options that everyone is going to love! And if you are like me, you'll love the bit of kick you'll get from Ryan's Inferno! Your Friendly Neighborhood foodie

Porky Fig Pizza and a Green Lantern pizza
Penny F.

I'm never disappointed with the food or service here and today was no different. Even under extremely challenging circumstances, they exceeded my expectations in every way with their pleasant demeanor, quick curbside pick up, and of course, great food!

Rick H.

We ordered online and did curbside pickup. Dewey's has their process down. Our order was exactly right and ready on time. The meatball pizza and salads were delicious. The raspberry poppyseed vinaigrette was very good and was a compliment to the salad. The safety and care that Dewey's displayed was commendable. Management thought the process through and it protects the employees and customers. A big thank you!

"Hand tossed pizza"... literally.

Service is nice and prices are reasonable. On my first visit I ate in and since it was Friday I had all you can eat fish fry and a cup of the clam chowder. The chowder was about what you would expect, creamy with some chewy clams and not a lot of spice. The fried fish was good, flaky whitefish nicely cooked; the fries and coleslaw were ok, but not very memorable. My second visit was to get a large cheese pizza to go. The pizza looked and smelled great with a nice yeasty aroma. The pizza actual is nicely balanced with a nice chewy crust, a simple tomato sauce and well cooked cheese. All of the elements are fine, but there was a lack of spice or punch, its a nice inoffensive meal, but I was hoping for more. Mr G's is a nice place for some decent Italian food, but my experiences were that I was looking for bigger flavors.

It was picked up at 6 PM and was estimated to be at my house 10 to 15 minutes later. Which would be accurate, considering the distance to my house is to the location. My food was finally delivered 45 minutes later. It was no longer warm. Now I do understand that they use a third-party for this delivery, but that's still their responsibility if they do that. If I'm going to spend $50 for two pizzas, I would expect that I would get them warm when I live 10 minutes away. This also was on a Tuesday evening. I did try and contact the delivery driver with the number that was provided but they did not respond until they were on my street and then just drop the pizza off on my porch even though they were supposed to hand it to me and they left. I should also add that I called the pizza place when it still hadn't been delivered and they did seriously apologize and said that if it wasn't there in 10 minutes, they would either remake it for me to pick up or they would give me my money back. And then showed up five minutes later, but it was still 45 minutes total that it took from when it was picked up to get to my house. I ended up, heating it up a little in the air fryer and it was fine. We actually all thought the pizza was really good in our house.

This is definitely a place to hang out while waiting for medical appointments, enjoy a sweet treat during a warm summer day, or meet friends for a light lunch and coffee. The food was great, the chai tea was a nice mix of spicy and sweet. My pastry was wonderfully balanced on the palate while still retaining a strong chocolate flavor. I saw some people criticizing the service as confusing, I guess that's understandable but I don't agree. When you order your drink, it comes out quickly so they most likely expect you to just wait a minute before grabbing it and your table number before going to sit down. The ladies behind the counter were nice and efficient and clear with directions regarding water and where to get the drinks and food. Like I said, I didn't have any problems with service or its directions. Not to mention they have 3 different kinds of spots to hangout and eat suiting your mood: a patio, a darker "dining room" (pictured below) and a bright gelato spot. Highly recommend! I will absolutely make this my Akron hangout spot.

They ID'd us first and we gave them a credit card to open a tab with. Then we were given wrist bands to activate beverage dispensers and tie our drinks to our credit card. We sat down at a table of our choosing and ordered a pizza from the neighboring Antonio's. Then we grabbed a glass, washed it in the automatic washer, and had our first beverage. I started off with a cider, which was tasty. A few minutes later, our pizza arrived, but it didn't have the correct toppings. We didn't care about the pizza, but the staff insisted on having it remade for us. We finished the first pizza and then they brought us another one. They didn't charge us anything for either pizza due to the error. So we took the 2nd pizza to go. We tried to tip the waitresses on our credit card, but they said there is no need to do that because the guests serve themselves, except for food. So if you want to tip, you should probably bring cash. The pizza was very tasty and there was a large selection of drinks. I like the concept and since it is close to home, we'll visit again.

For example, if you want a non-beer drink, there are no fountain beveridges. Just random bottled drinks like apple and orange juice. (with pizza?!) To order, you have to go to the counter, but there's no menu to look at once there. So we were literally toting menus back and forth from the table to the counter to show them what we wanted to order. Chaotic is a good word to describe our experience. The pizza was delicious, I'd happily eat it again. But the service and menu/drink situation were so bad it was almost laughable. We were the only group in the entire restaurant, and I think I know why. While the restaurant building is exactly what you'd expect, the outdoor patio looked inviting with ample seating and an open fire, but I'm not sure I'll be going back. I'm only giving this place two stars because the pizza was so good. ‍
