Today was beautiful but as ordinary as any day, wife and I got home from work and just wanted an easy dinner. Memphis Pizza Cafe!! Thin crust, yum. I've had bad experiences here before but nobody does a thin crust like MPC. Yep, they have a real pizza oven too, not one of those conveyor- belt contraptions. They actually cook here. And it can be delicious! Todays visit was awesome. The restaurant was clean and the service was happy - everything went smoothly. Best of all something happened to this location... it was just like their Park Ave store: great pie! Great service! Great attitude! Madison Ave IS BACK baby~ read more

Great thin crust. Excellent choice of pizza. This place started in the mid 90's. Always friendly service.

Date Night! We ordered CAFE SUPREME - Mozzarella, Canadian bacon, pepperoni, onion, green pepper, beef, sausage, mushrooms Chef salad Blue Moon The pizza never disappoints. The thin crust is the best!! We have a long history with Overton Square and have had many dates in the area over our 36 years together -back to Friday's on Square days! read more

Whenever we need a quick bite, that we know is going to be good, feed the kids and is close to anything in midtown, it's going to be MPC. You know how you just have a drink or a menu item that you know you're going to order at specific restaurants? Well mine ag MPC is a half Hawaiian salad and a slice of bbq chicken pizza. It slaps Every. Single. Time. HOWEVER MPC WHHHYYYY did you forget the mozzarella cheese on my salad it's literally my favorite part (insert chef hand gesture here) It's the only reason I can't score 5 stars for our visit. Even the ranch is out of this world, and in such a Hidden Valley / Kens Ranch Era, you simply cannot underestimate the value of a good homemade ranch like the one at MPC. We sat on the patio, the fans didn't really do much but it was not too hot out. I think I'd rather actually have sit inside because the vibe is vibing in there, but we had a good time and good food. I'll just be expecting extra cheese on my salad next time! Our waitress was HUSTLING honey. She was literally running from table to table. Hopefully more staff showed up to give her a break! read more

Pizza was pretty good. We ordered. Service was ok. They brought out our dessert pizza first. Kind of odd.

Best thin crust pizza I've ever eaten. Very consistent with the best of ingredients. The staff is always attentive.

Pretty nice location. It is definitely good pizza and the prices are reasonable . Not bad service either

Placed and order over the phone for pickup and the order accidentally got lost. I could tell they were busy when I ordered, and didn't mind the wait when they offered to make it once I arrived. They comped my food without me even asking and were very polite about the situation. Food is delish and the decor is very nice! Would go back. :) read more

Memphis Pizza Cafe - Calzones - Pizza Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Each year for Valentines, my family and I try a different pizza place that we haven't tried. This is pretty neat spot located in the heart of Midtown serving up pizza in their own unique way. We had 4 types of pizza including pepperoni, beef, Buffalo chicken, and all of the meats! They were all tasty and served on thin crust. So, if you are a pizza lover who likes a different kind of pizza, lost of sauce, and tones of cheese, this is not the place for you. But, trust me you will enjoy it. The cheese sticks are the same way. The space is super cool and chill. The staff were all friendly and accommodating. They took care of our large part with ease. If you're in the neighborhood be sure to stop by! read more

Must admit, we have been coming here for atleast 15 years. This is for sure some of the best pizza in memphis. They have a very unique, thin, cracker like Roman crust. They have some excellent flavor combos. Our family usually goes with the basics but we mix it up occasional. They do a decent Greek and garden salad. They have the absolute best ranch. This location ebbs and flows as far as service goes but the quality of your food is pretty consistent. You can also order pizza by the slice, if you want to try a couple of different flavor options without committing to a full pizza. They offer some local beers, seltzers and wine. read more

Pizza was middle of the road, not the "Best in Memphis" like the flier claimed. Crust was really thin and crispy, which does not float my boat. Almost cracker like. Service was good and people were friendly. read more

I simply love Memphis pizza cafe, i eat here on a fairly consistent basis and the food is always hot, fresh and delicious. Pizzas look amazing and are roasted to a point to where the crust is both crisp and chewy, vegetables and other other toppings burst with flavor, atmosphere always lends itself to a light metro downtown feel, i always feel "chic and very cool" when i eat here, awesome spot!! read more

I just called the Manager. Last night at 9:30 I stopped by this Memphis Pizza Cafe for some pizza with a friend. I used a credit card that I hardly ever use to pay for the order. Two hours later, someone tried to buy tickets for a sports game on my card for $835using that card. It did not go through because they could not provide my address. Be aware there is a credit card thief working at this location looking to steal your credit card information. the management didn't seem to care. read more

Love the pizza at this place. The crust was thin, light, and crispy. I ordered a white pizza and it was absolutely amazing. The staff was attentive and friendly. Try this place if you ever find yourself in the Memphis area! read more

I finally tried out this pizza. They definitely could use a bigger venue. The bar can seat around 7 or 8. The staff did a really good job paying attention to who was coming and going throughout the evening. Our waitress was super friendly and attentive as well despite their being packed and busy on a Friday night. Now for the pizza. It had the perfect detectible thin crust that I'm always searching for. Some of the pizzas have an olive oil base instead of pizza sauce. You can order pizza by the slice and they happily offer a half and half pizza. read more

Pizzas were good, I tried three slices: veggie, Buffalo chicken and Barbecue chicken, all thin crust. It was alright, but frankly I was not impressed. The best part of dinner was the patio; overlooking Overton square, there was an amateur theater company performing a classic Shakespeare play, a dinner & a show! The restaurant interior was also cozy and inviting. I would actually return and try other items on their menu. read more

It's been a looooong time since I've been to this particular location. I think I know why I'm not as fond of this chain- I'm not big on thin crust pizza. That seems to be their specialty. I was with a group and we ordered a bunch of pizzas for everyone to share. If I find myself at this chain again I'll have to see if I can get a thick crust slice/pizza to see how I like that. I enjoyed the Hawaiian, as I expected to. What was unexpected was how much I enjoyed the Buffalo Chicken. Usually there's a cloying aftertaste for me whenever I eat Buffalo anything but this was balanced so that it wasn't overwhelming and for me it tasted great. The Trip-A-Roni was too greasy for me but everyone else seemed to love it. I have to admit, their S'more's pizza is pretty amazing. Of course, it's the first one I've ever tried. Still, I'd come back to get just that and be happy. Nothing else really wowed me but it wasn't terrible either. Loved: - Dessert: S'more's Pizza - Hawaiian (with extra mozzarella) Liked: - Buffalo Chicken - Cheesesticks (best with the sauce) Ok: Café Supreme Dessert: Apple Streusal Pizza Ultimate Cheese Disliked: - Pizza of the Month: Trip-A-Roni read more

The food is good. The service for the most pretty food. The kitchen looks a little dingy and out dated. Just be careful what time you do go. If it's on a weekend there's a good chance that the service will be poor and annoying. The food will be a little less than normal seeming that everyone is just ready to go and not really caring about the quality or service during weekend nights. read more

The debate of best pizza in Memphis is apparently a serious thing. Went to Memphis pizza cafe because it's at the top of the list for this debate. Ordered a simple pepperoni pizza and it was great. Also tried the buffalo chicken pizza and enjoyed it. read more

For some reason I didn't discover Memphis pizza cafe for quite a while living in Memphis, but since I've discovered it, it's been a pretty go-to place for friends when we're in the Overton Square area. It has something for everyone even if you have picky friend (speaking from personal experience). Sadly recently with the pandemic, we haven't gotten out there as much, but a couple weeks ago a friend and I thought we'd try it out since they have a pretty nice outdoor patio space. I suppose a word of caution - they didn't let us specifically request to be outside though we tried, and we just happened to be placed outside. So if the outdoor space specifically is something you're looking for maybe call ahead? Or go at like 3p when it's not lunch or dinner so that you won't have to just get lucky like we did. Overall though would recommend! read more

Look, hands down Memphis Pizza Cafe is the absolute best pizza in Memphis! There are other establishments I enjoy, but if you are looking for a break from the run-of-the-mill commercial pizza products look no further. Thin cracker-style crust with just the right amount of sauce and high-quality toppings generously applied makes for a fantastic meal. Try the greek salad with their standard greek dressing too! There are several locations around town and the quality and taste are very consistent. read more

We have been here several times. Consistently good. Tried garlic chicken pizza for the first time & it was just okay. Buffalo chicken pizza & all meat were better. read more

This is a decent Pizza spot in Memphis. I'm a New Yorker so the crispy crust was different the first time I bit into a slice. I wasn't expecting that and the new was a shock at first but by my 3rd slice I was used it it. Prices are decent, great place to grab lunch with friends read more

This is one of my absolute favorite pizza places in Memphis. I think we tend to underestimate the impact of Memphis' delicious aquifer water on the quality of our pizza crust. I always order the thin-crusted pizza and I just love the crunch of their crust along the wide edges of the pizza. LOL The flavor of the pizza is never too bland and never too salty. It's always just right. I love how they properly chop all of their toppings into prefect, bite-sized pieces. I haven't even gotten to the price. It's amazing to me that this pizza is so reasonable. With Overton Square now bustling, the parking situation is a little harder these days, but Memphis Pizza Cafe was there before the revival of this entertainment district and it will likely outlast any potential downturns. I'm a Memphis Pizza Cafe fan for life! read more

We love MPC, both to eat in and carry out. Always good, friendly service even when they are busy.

I came in there a little while ago and drank a beer while I was waiting on my pizza. When I went to the bar to pick up my order an African American gentleman handed me my pizza and said "All Lives Matter." I think it might have been some kind of joke or something. But it was mostly just a very extra interaction. I just want some pizza. read more

I would not recommend this place at all. We came in around 8:20 after a long day of driving across the country and were told blankly to find a seat. I'm completely fine with that but once we did our waiter felt like she wanted nothing to do with us. She was cold, blank, and rude. Threw me off from the first start. Got our drinks and then she took are order. It then took around 40-45 for our two slices to come out. The pizza crust was paper thin and burnt. Didn't even finish it. We payed and then left immediately. I'm not trying to be an ass but our experience was not like the reviews. I would choose some where else to eat and not waste your time!!!!! read more

This place is wonderful and the atmosphere is so good. Enjoyed my slices of pizza and the variety of them. Or you can create your own.. And the staff is so helpful and nice. read more

Nice atmosphere. Great place to eat after events in Overton Square. Booths available to seat large parties. Pizza available by the slice or whole pizzas. read more

Memphis Pizza Cafe - Cajun pizza - Pizza Near Me - Memphis, Tennessee

Service was extremely poor. The lady ignored us and took 3 other tables in the section before us. Of course, they got their food and we did not. I'm writing this as we are still waiting for the pizza to come out. When I politely asked the lady about the food she responds aggressively as if I was bothering her. This was after ignoring me the first 3 times I said excuse me trying to get her attention. I'm pretty sure this was based solely on the color of our skin. I'm editing to say that I didn't leave because I had my two sons with me and I didn't want to send them a message of you have to go when someone has a problem with you or the color of your skin. It's just pizza but who is she to deny my sons service? Instead, I spoke with a manager and asked for another waitress. Both were awesome! I paid for our food and left my usually 25% tip. During her diatribe of "it isn't her fault all her other tables were served before us even though they came in after us" she mentioned she worked there for five years. I can only imagine the amount of people she has treated this way during that time. I won't say avoid this restaurant; but, I will say avoid that particular waitress and if you feel you are being ignored or being mistreated during your visit here you probably are. read more

Date of Visit: April 21, 2019 There was no hostess nor a sign that said you could seat yourself, so I stood there for five minutes looking stupid until an employee said that I could sit wherever I wanted. The server that came seemed annoyed that I wanted to order ginger ale & then water since there was no ginger ale, but the interaction did get better after that. The barbecue chicken pizza was very good. I read their menu & liked every ingredient listed on the dessert menu for their apple streusel pizza & the smores pizza, so I ordered a slice of both. The Apple Streusel Pizza had a slightly harder bottom than I expected, but it didn't affect the taste. The Smores Pizza was pretty good with the same slightly harder bottom than I expected. The food was good, but the service was a bit off at the start of this visit. Maybe if you go in with another person or at another time, you may have better luck. read more
