    MOD pizza is well... MODerate...Mediocre... Average... So-so... you get my drift. Although I like the MODern concept of adding your own toppings in a Chipotle kind of assembly line style, the pizza itself lacks pizazz. The toppings, while plentiful, were rather bland. Yes, you have your choice of over 30 toppings with just one price point, and that's the real draw here, but I wasn't impressed with the quantity over quality. I would've preferred marinated artichokes with some flavor, for example. The crust was chewy, and didn't hold the ingredients well... floppy pizza, not my thaaang! The salad,too, was just okay. On the plus side, the food is pretty cheap, it's pretty fast, and if you're your palate isn't too picky, you may be satisfied with this pizza chain. I would love to like this place... perhaps MODify the supplier of your food service with higher quality ingredients?? But that's just my MODest opinion.

    What's left of my Caspian pizza.  Love the Gorgonzola cheese!

    I had thrown my business card in the fishbowl a while back. Well, I received a call that I had won a free pizza party for up to 25 pizzas and/or salads - my choice of eat in or take out. So how nice is that!?!?! During these COVID times, I decided I would do a pick up and take it to my office where they are still working on site for a lunchtime treat. I came in to pick up my "party" order at the pre-arranged time. They staff was just wrapping up my order and had me ready to go in no time. I tipped based on what I thought the full order might cost. Thanks, MOD Pizza, for making me very popular with my staff!

    The pizza was pretty good, I must say, but my overall first impressions were not overwhelmingly positive. We entered this new location, and "new to me" pizza joint, after 7pm, and it wasn't terribly busy. We browsed the posted menu ideas and noticed the holder for the "cheat sheets" was empty. Drat! What is a cheat sheet for MOD Pizza? Oh well. We waited for the couple ahead of us to order, and when it was our turn, the guy just stood and looked at me. I stared back, waiting for him to ask me had I been to MOD before and for him to maybe give me to lowdown, but no. Finally he did ask what he could get for me, so I told him there were 3 if us and so we started ordering up our pizzas. One of us ordered a plain cheese, which was made quickly and disappeared pretty quickly. Our other orders took a few moments longer to prepare, in hindsight I would have liked more control over my custom build, but the dude just started piling on the cheese before I could really instruct on how I wanted my pizza built. I also know now that they do have sea salt and oregano at the end of the line, just need to not let them whisk the pizza away before requesting a dash of that before they toss my pie in the oven. While we waited to check out, we just observed some very nonengaged employees puttering around, there was no positive vibe about the place. Once we got our drinks and seated ourselves, we observed several tables that needed cleaning, and tall stacks of plates that were just piling up and being ignored. Once our pizzas were ready, we were each pleasantly surprised by the taste and texture of the pizza. The crust is superduper thin, with some of that bubbly burnt outer edge. So now there are 3 "fast fired" pizza establishments in RVA, and this is closest to home. Based on taste, customer service, and cleanliness, I'd say this would be my 3rd pick. We did not see even one employee cleaning up in or around the tables or seating areas. Customer service goes a long way with me and I felt it was very lacking. But we will definitely give MOD another shot, I mean this location has been open for less than a week, sure they will have some staffing kinks to work out. Again...pizza very good though.

    I give this a 3 star instead of a 2 star rating because they made an effort to rectify our issue. This is about our first visit to this paticular location. The restaurant had approximately four or five patrons eating. The drink area was dirty and sticky. We noted later that both heads (restrooms) need attention, too. Upon arrival to the order que, my wife and I noted three line employees moving the food coolers around, apparently looking for a "ink pen". They were wearing no protective gloves and VERY close to the open food. The first employee noticed us and stated that they would be right with us. After approximately three to four minutes and a unsuccessful treasure hunt, they started our order. After putting on the sauce, they stopped. We then noted a employee with keys and cell phone in hand was behind us. They started her order then and moved her along ahead of us. (SMH...) After making our two "build your own very slowly" pizza's, we paid. I waited near the pick up area, and did notice the female running the oven seemed quite inexperienced and somewhat confused on what she was doing. When she thought they were done, she handed the order to me, not asking if we needed utensils. We started eating our quick lunch, (we had a appointment pending) and noted that my pizza was burnt on the bottom. My wife's pizza had broccoli on top, which was burned. (Well actually, it looked like a US Navy F-4C Phantom dropped napalm cannister it from 500 feet AGL) We called over a female employee who was passing and showed her our food. She said she would inform the manager. The manager never arrived, and time was not on our side now. So I got two boxes, packed things up to salvage the food at home later and proceeded to leave. The female who went to the manager saw us leaving, and said the manager offered us broccoli to take with us to take home! We declined, thinking how idiotic THAT was! (Insert me rolling my eyes here) My wife called the next day, and talked to the female manager on duty. She was quite apologetic and took her name and order information/time, etc. She said we had to free meals when we returned. (We thank her for that, BTW) We did return yesterday and had lunch. It was much cleaner. The pizza was ok and edible, but sloppily made. I don't know WTH that first manager was thinking, or why a lost ink pen was so important they had to break food safety protocol- SO.... I think the next time we travel to the Regency Mall area, we'll stick to McDonald's. Maybe you should, too.

    Im not sure yet if I like Mod. It reminds me of Blaze pizza alot. Im sure they've been compared before. I think what makes them different is the way they charge for the crust and you can build with any and every topping you want. The staff was super nice, and the layout was too but the pizza was underwhelming. Not bad-just not great or anything new. I was a lil disappointed it didn't have ant vegan options. All pizza places should have meat alternatives like "beyond meat" and vegan cheese imo. I was stuck with just a basic cheese pizza, and tried to add 3 cheeses to give it a boost. It was mainly the crust that ruined it for me. I wont judge off this visit though, I will give it another try maybe it was an off day.

    Just green peppers , size mod

    New place I checked out on a rainy saturday. Cool concept, good taste. We both got the mod size which is good , but to me to slice in 4 pieces is simply too big a slice. 8 or even 6 makes more sense. Unlike NY style where you can fold it, the crust is thin and crisp. I liked ed , but you cant fit the piece in your mouth with out it hitting the sides of your mouth. I would go back. Many flavor options

    No parchment, so all the moisture goes into the box - but the bottom was burned terribly, so not a pleasant experience
    Rodney I.

    We love their pizza half the time. They are very inconsistent! Today we ordered our pizza's delivered as we usually do. I always get the same pizza, but it always looks different. Sometimes it's perfect. Sometimes it's soggy. Today it came with no parchment in the box which causes all the moisture from the pizza to soak into the box, so the pizza is dry. Also today the pizza is black on the bottom - not an enjoyable experience. It's always a crap shoot as to whether I'll get a good pizza or a bad one. When I get a good one, I feel lucky and decide to order from them again. When it's a bad one, then I'm wondering who else I could order good pizza from. There aren't a lot of options, but maybe I will find something better soon.

Hector is the coolest, hands down--great energy, great personality, the kind of person who makes you want to come back. Oh and did I mention you can get pizza by the slice! The variety is mind blowing and they always have vegan options!!!!! I'm a thin-slice person. I need the right ratio of crust to sauce to toppings, and Zorch nails it every time. Plus, no flop! The cheese slice is a classic and was my favorite... until I discovered The Upside Down. Listen, when I bite into that slice, I literally close my eyes. I see a lot of people say it's greasy. For this one, grease me down baby. The flavor does everything it needs to do. Layered, bold, and honestly addictive. After that slice, I don't even want a regular one anymore. Next up on my list: The Grandma. And for context, I've had Angelo's in Philly. Respectfully? It doesn't compare. Sorry to all the other grandmothers out there lol.

Food - the pepperoni pizza was the best we've had in richmond so far! The red sauce tasted more like a pasta sauce than a pizza sauce - which I loved! The pepperonis were also larger and thinner than the traditional size so they were perfectly crispy. We also ordered the Breakfast Pizza with sausage. The flavor profile was more mild but still surprisingly good. We added red pepper flakes to this one when we got home.
