Stopped here this past Sunday, after my 5k and was quite suprised. The atmosphere, and ambiance wasnt your typical pizza, sub place. Even though the girl at the counter, messed up mine and my boyfriend orders the grilled chicken wrap was a large portion and filled me up. Service was quick, and the food was brought to your table, which is always a bonus. read more

John's Pizza & Subs - Lunch after 5k - Pizza Near Me - Tonawanda, New York

Just ordered two stingers subs and were delicious! I stopped by to order since I had to drop Rf some packages and when I got back in 15 minutes, order was hot and ready to go. Thank You. read more

In a previous review 6 years ago I raved about the wings here. Last few times weren't great especially since the price for wings is insane now I feel like if I splurge on wings they better be good. Done trying John's for wings they've lost their reputation. Serious advice for managements of pizza shops - if a wing is significantly small or deformed don't use it I the count. Either throw it in extra or don't put it in at all. John's also has a pattern of bad flats and drums ratios but that's whatever at this point. At nearly $2 a wing we really have to do a little better. Otherwise - the pizza and subs are great read more

John's Pizza & Subs - Staff should be trained to not count significantly small or deformed wings in the order count. Either toss in extra or toss out. - Pizza Near Me - Tonawanda, New York

Best subs ever! And their wings are great. (I only get pizza once in a while, but they excel w/ that too.

Food is good but that Jennifer character has a real attitude. I ordered set peppers and they gave me banana peppers and then argued with me and asked me if I wanted to see their produce order, then called me a name i can't repeat on here. Do better lady. I'm sorry you're in your 50's making subs but don't take it out on the guests. I hope you have s better day. read more

Ordered a roast beef sub online at this establishment on a weekday at lunch. I arrived to pick it up several minutes before it was scheduled to be ready and it was waiting for me. I chose to take it out on this occasion. I have had this sub here many times before because I believe it is the finest roast beef sub in town. The roll is exceptional, meat very good, and the condiments very fresh. The sub is sizable, many folks would think a half sub is enough for lunch. I got a whole sub because it is so tasty. Their other subs are always good as well, but this sub far exceeds the taste of most other sub shops. As an aside the staff is always professional, the establishment clean, updated and the off street parking convenient. Will certainly return, read more

I work next door to John's on the Boulevard and order from there on a regular basis and the food is always great but this review comes from a recent order that I placed. We were having my daughter's birthday party on a Saturday and I Friday I called and explained I had a very large order of pizza for the party and the young lady on the phone took my order and made sure and wrote it down on a note and said it would be taken care of for the following day at the time I requested. I showed up on Saturday and the pizza was hot and ready for pickup and was delicious and cooked perfectly. Excellent service and excellent food. Thank you John's! read more

Pizza good and if you like wings with no meat and all bone this is your place no reason for blue cheese here! Ten wings here will set you back $15 for less than 2 oz .of meat . Have plenty of toothpicks ready to get that hard dried pieces of over cooked chicken wing (cuz they're so tiny ) out of your teeth! ( maybe cook them 10 minutes less than other pizza places who sell decent size wings just a thought hmm? Get real John profits over quality can only last so long! Look around ( fridays Applebees ect ... the people will see these reviews and hopefully go somewhere else!!! read more

DO NOT EAT HERE. My family and I have been going to John's occasionally for the last couple of years. The pizza has been okay, nothing special but not terrible. This time I decided to give their Sweet Chili Chicken finger sub a try. It was the most disgusting sub I've ever had. The amount of mayo on it was the most absurd amount of mayo I've ever seen. It was impossible to taste the Sweet Chili Sauce because all I could taste was mayo. I started scraping it off with a spoon and the amount piling up on the plate was grossing out my wife and kids. The sub wouldn't even stay together because the roll was a soggy mess. It was like it was made by a person who had absolutely zero ability to determine anything even remotely close to a normal ratio of ingredients in a sub. I discarded the second half and called to complain. The manager, Joe, responded with hostility saying that I trashed his employee by complaining about the food she made. He told me she was new, only there 2 days, and she didn't know how to make subs yet. My question is, What kind of competent manager puts someone on sub duty and then admits angrily to a complaining customer that the employee doesn't know how to make subs? Joe doesn't even offer a refund at that point. He asks me aggressively, "What do you want me to do about it?" This kind of response baffles me. Customer Service fundamentals, Joe. You, as the manager, say something like, "I'm so sorry you had this experience, sir. We can make you a new sub, or offer you a free sub for your next visit, or a refund. Whatever you'd like. We're just sorry this happened." Nope, not Joe. He's taking it personal. He tells me that he's having a bad day. So, obviously, Joe is misdirecting these bad day blues at me. Real professional, Joe. Joe eventually says he'll issue a refund and hangs up on me while I'm telling him this is not how you handle complaints. So, I leave a Google review, then I call and talk to the Restaurant Manager 2 days later, Jennifer. She's actually nice and professional, for which I thank her sincerely. She agrees to check on the status of the refund ensuring it's been issued and agrees to call me back the following day. I tell my wife that Jennifer handled it so well, when she calls back to confirm the refund's been issued, I'm going to delete my Google review, since all's well that ends well. Well, Jennifer calls back the next day, and she's very angry, and she says she saw my Google review and asks if I posted it after speaking with her. I told her no, of course not, and she should be able to tell by the date it was posted that is not the case. She asks if posting reviews like this is something I do often, to which I explain that all she has to do is click on my Google review profile and she could see that actually all I leave is 5 star reviews because I believe in not saying anything if it's not nice. It was Joe's response that pushed me to leave that review. Jennifer tells me that the new girl is in training and Managers aren't able to watch every sub being made. That's so stupid. Your restaurant is called John's Pizza and SUBS. Subs should be made well. Every time. And if not, it's not the customer who's mean and bad for complaining. If the girl is training, then watch her. If she's doing poorly, then don't put her at the sub station unsupervised. That sub is over $14 plus tax. Nobody wants to spend that much money on the gamble that you fools are going to put unsupervised trainees on the sub station when it comes time for their sub to be made, then, give the customer a hard time when they complain. The whole thing is just absurd. Then Jennifer says she has no order history for our phone number and she thinks this is the only time we ever ate at John's. This just speaks to her gross incompetence because we have eaten there (at that same location) once every couple months for the past 2-3 years. My wife and I searched our online banking and found transactions going back to 2022 for John's, totaling a respectable amount of spending with them. And that doesn't include the times we've paid cash. Jennifer also proceeds to hang up on me. This behavior is so ridiculous it's hard to believe. This is exactly how to make a problem worse. If Joe handled it well initially, I would've left a 5-star review explaining how well the problem was handled. Instead, here we are. I'm now compelled to share this experience on every review outlet available, plus tell everyone I know. Joe and Jennifer have cost this location a significant loss in potential revenue by taking things incredibly personal and reacting emotionally. Learn how to do business. My prediction--this location will slowly die if they don't bring in some new management. There are many other better pizza and sub shops. Don't invite this bullcrap into your life. Spend your money elsewhere. read more

I always order funnel cake fries from here -- certainly my guilty pleasure! This last time, though, I felt like it was missing some powdered sugar. The last time I ordered their chicken finger buffalo bread which was very different, but good. I also ordered a pizza sub, but was not impressed with that. It just didn't taste right and had pieces of lettuce accidentally thrown in there. read more

just ok, pizza was kinda doughy and almost 4 bucks a slice, kinda of pricey for a slicey. not the end of the world, had it cold the next day and helped fill the food hole in my stomach, so not pizza love lost. I've only been in town a couple of days and had better pizza, so I bet you can do better. staff was nice though. read more

I was craving for pizza and decided to give this location a try especially when it is literally across the street from my place. I ordered online and they were also doing this deal for $5 off $25 for first time customers. We always drive by this place and go to dibellas next door all the time but never got a chance to try it out. I ordered the large build your own pizza, 10 wings, and garlic cheesy bread. My boyfriends loves the wings. I didn't try the wings but I did love the garlic bread! I'm always a garlic bread person and this had a good amount of cheese and garlic on it. The pizza was good and i love how cheesy it is. I wasn't fond of the salty taste on the bottom of the pizza. It was too salty for me but other than that, this is definitely a good pizza place to go to. read more

We haven't been to John's for years, but we went back the other day and loved it. Our pizza was cooked perfectly and the sauce and dough are some of the best around. The wings were cooked just as ordered. Plus, they have one of the best chicken finger subs around. read more

John's is a solid choice for your pizza and sub needs! I am pretty simple and my favorite pizza from them is their cheese pizza, but of course they have several other delicious options as well. I also love their Turkey sub. Their chicken finger sub is also a favorite, however, I wish the chicken fingers were more crispy! Even when we request extra crispy they don't seem to have that much of a crisp. Regardless, they still hold the title of one of the best chicken finger subs around. read more

I was craving a Buffalo Chicken Finger sub and was told to give John's a try. I am very glad I did! I called at about 5:15pm on a Saturday and ordered a whole (12") Chicken Finger sub with medium-style hot sauce, lettuce, provolone cheese, and bleu cheese but no mayo or tomatoes on a wheat roll. They told me it would be ready in 10-15 minutes (pretty quick!). I got there and saw plenty of parking. I was able to walk in and out within two minutes. The inside of the restaurant had a good amount of seating and looked clean. The staff I spoke to were pleasant. As for the sub, it was great! The chicken fingers were hot and plenty big (there were about three, good-size fingers). The medium-style sauce had a great flavor and the provolone cheese and bleu cheese combination added a creaminess and really elevated the flavor. The wheat roll was great as well: not too crunchy or too chewy. I'll be honest, at first, I thought the sub looked a little small, but when I was done, I was perfectly satiated: not overfull nor still hungry, just right! Between Fat Man's Pizza and now John's Pizza and Sub, it's hard to decide which is the better Buffalo Chicken Finger sub. But at the moment, I think the edge would go in John's favor. I would definitely come back again to satisfy my Buffalo Chicken Finger sub craving! read more

This is my new favorite pizza place!! I felt like something different than the usual pizza places I order from. I remembered a friend had mentioned John's and it's also very close by so I checked their menu out online. I love that they have a small pizza on their menu for about $8 because not a lot of pizza places have a small pizza; it usually goes from personal to medium. Small is a perfect size for me because I don't really like left over pizza so with the small I don't waste much or any. I got double cheese and pepperoni and 10 wings (half medium, half Cajun). The pizza was amazingggg and the perfect balance of cheese, sauce and delicious pepperonis. The wings were good too, typical of any pizza place. The vibe was nice inside and their interior dining space looks casual but comfortable and spacious. I'm always looking for pizza places where you can dine in and once covid calms down a bit, this place will definitely be one of them. The workers were pleasant as well. Highly recommend giving this place a try. read more

Ordered bbq pizza logs, chicken finger sub & their steak with onion ring sub. The logs were a bit soft because of the sauce but it was different in a good way (would be a great idea for the fries!). Both subs were good and the finger sub was sloppy which is the only way really. My only complaint was medium has that distinct taste which was not quite Buffalo and my cheese was thick unmelted, but overall a pleasant experience and I'd totally order from there again read more

I prefer my pizza fluffier. The dough had no "bubbles". Below average pizza for buffalo. The wing were also over-crisped for me. They do however have pretty decent subs. The reason for 3 stars. read more

It was our first time to get food from this pizzeria on Niagara Falls Boulevard. This street is often a bit of a conundrum when trying to get into a business coming from the opposite side of the street. You have to pass the business you're going to and turn around to get around the large cement meridian. Then the parking lot is smallish, but there is some parking up front near the door which as long as it's not too busy seems enough. I pulled right up in front. Sweet. We had ordered chicken finger subs and pepperoni pizza and I was picking up my order to take home. The food was ready and our order was correct. Always a good sign. Service was good. I noticed a sign on the counter with a monthly special sub of the month that looked interesting. Took a picture for you all. ;). No menus to take home were available due to a new menu being printed. I can only guess that may mean an increase in prices. :( The food: well, not the worst and not the best. Pizza, pretty generic and not the Bocce style Buffalo pizza we prefer. Pepperoni were small and spicy, which elevates it above mall pizza. Subs: better than the pizza. Very saucy and moist. Chicken wasn't crispy at all and small, not covering the whole roll. I enjoyed the sauces but our favorite it still The Corner Store on Elmwood with Jim Steak Out after that in second. Picasso's makes a scary mean version who's level of spice made for a very funny family memory. Hot means HOT there! Lol. All in all, I'd get a sub there again, but not pizza. read more

I haven't been here in a while because of diet restrictions but, last night on my way home from being out of town I was craving wings! So I called Johns on Niagara Falls Blvd! I'm telling you these wings from this store are the BEST in Buffalo! I got them medium extra crispy and they were absolutely the best bar none! There are other Johns pizza shops but this one by far the best wings in town! Bleu cheese is awesome as well! Good stuff! read more

The best steak and cheese sub on the planet! I had this sub tonight for the first time in 15 years and it is still as good as I remember.

I drove to pick the pizza on New Year's Eve and some other food up since I was just outside their delivery area. When I got home and opened the pizza it was clearly burnt. I called and the supervisor on duty and he stated that my burnt pizza was subjective! He would not deliver a pizza to me and would not credit my card. My only option was to get the kids back in the car and drive back. When I stated I would like to talk to a manager I was told to call back tomorrow and when I stated that whoever is cooking the pizza needs to check if it's burnt before boxing it , the supervisor hung up on me. I have been in the customer service industry for over 20 years and was treated with such non regard and disrespect that I will not be going back and I was a loyal customer since 1989! Horrible behavior and customer service from someone who is supposed to be representing your company!!! read more

+ good location, good pizza - dry sausage topping Went here last weekend and picked up a couple pizzas. First one with sausage, mushrooms, and hot peppers. The next with bacon, pineapple, and pepperoni. They cooked them up in 30 minutes. Upon entering there must have been 4 young girls working there. Not sure why they need so many, but they were friendly. Both pizzas had tons of toppings. The sausage pizza had dry pieces of sausage on it. Not good, but the fresh mushrooms (not canned) and hot peppers were good. On the other pizza the bacon was in huge chunks and tiny pepperoni and a bit of pineapple. It was very tasty. The crust was a little plain on both. Next I'll get thin crust. Overall, not bad pizzas and close to Boulevard Mall and all the other action. read more

I was given the wrong order and since it was still a sub and I knew they couldn't use it I kept it . I felt they should know so on the way out I mentioned the mistake. The woman behind the counter acted as if it was my fault. I gave them my name and what I had ordered when I came into pay . They handed me a half sub. Never inspected my order before. She was very rude kept saying I ate someone's food. Last time we ordered pizza they never sliced the pie. Done with this place after many years of being a good customer. She kept insisting I ordered though food company like door dash .never have and never will. Sub had no flavor read more

This place is ok. I've definitely had better pizza. But their pizza logs are good. My brother got a chicken finger sub, he liked it. I didn't get one because John's Pizza & Sub's openly advertises that they use Tyson chicken. My husband got a steak hoagie and he liked it. I wanted a Greek Salad, but their menu states they put a hard boiled egg in it. What's that? There's a place for eggs in salad, and that's a cob or an egg salad, not a Greek. I like that sesame seed bread is an option for subs. read more

John's delivery is top-notch. I've ordered on their website and I get the: 'Your order will be delivered at 1:00pm' order confirmation. And then the John's delivery driver is in my driveway at 12:35pm, haha, I love it! My brother and I tried their one specialty pizza and it tastes *just* like a Big Mac - it was incredible! Be sure to try a slice if you're in the area. One thing I will say is that John's is consistent. One of my favorite subs has bacon in it, and the bacon is always perfect: not too much bacon, not too little bacon, and it is always crispy and not fatty or charred. They do offer a 'sub of the month' and for some reason/glitch you can't order it on the site (you have to call). The same thing happens with their 'Western' sub; the system won't let you order it for some reason. read more

Stopped by to walk in and order a few subs at 9:20PM. Checked web and stated open until 10PM. Threw employees walked out and locked up forty minutes early leering at us the entire time. Thanks for having me go somewhere else to spend my money. read more

Food - 3 Price - 3 Atmosphere - 2 (I usually eat at home) Service - 2 from a 4. I order here probably once or twice a month. I thought it was cool that they had a deal on Groupon (Full disclosure, I also own stock in GRPN) $11 get you $20. Ordered a pizza with double cheese, banana peppers, mushrooms, and pepperoni. Plus two 2 liters of ginger ale. I asked for the pizza to be well done and I picked it up on my way home from work. It all came to about $23. When I reached home I was a little upset to see that my pizza was burnt. I called them to advise them of the issue and Pete the manager said that he appoligzed for the inconvenience and that sometimes with all the toppings it my be a little difficult to get pizza done correctly. Understandable! He even said they woud deliver another pizza to the house to make for it. Amesome! I live about 2 minutes away. Literally. Bad experiences lead to bad reviews which can be easily remedied by good experiences. Long story short, they didn't come at all. I called before they closed to express my disappointment. They took down my name and offerd a free pizza. Now, we only go there with coupons and that after all of the others are used. read more

Pizza was a mess falling apart. Delivery was fast but i was missing extra blue cheese amd sauce. Will not be going back.

Tonight I ordered my usual, a taco salad via DoorDash. My order history clearly states no olives & no peppers. Unfortunately it came with both. by the time I picked them out of the salad it was about half the size as it was beforehand. I know finding help is difficult but can you at least require that they can read? The DoorDash portion of the order got mixed up as well because the driver didn't read the delivery instruction. I don't think I'm asking a lot. There are so many places that make this kind of food that I'll probably find a different place next time. read more

I heard about johns and all the talk has been about there chicken finger subs and pizza so today I decided to stop in for lunch and try it on out. The pizza tasted good. Hot sauce/ blue cheese mix and plenty of cheese. They give you the option of adding celery to the pie(hard to find a place that does that for this particular sort of pie) The fingers where cooked perfect. The crust was meh. It wasn't thin which is good but it was lacking something. Same with the dough itself. I'd try out the chicken finger sub next time. read more
