Visiting the parental units from Houston this week end.
And when I come to see them I try and take them somewhere new or to a place they do not get to very often that they like.
MOD got the call tonight.
First time to MOD pizza for all of us, we almost didn't make it here tonight,
I call to see if they had the Aggie game on and when they didn't even
have a TV we almost went somewhere else, but with the half time score we decided we were not going to miss anything,
So off we went to MOD pizza...
Neither myself nor my parents are very technologically savvy,
as a matter of fact we have been called technology challenged.
So their pizza system was new for us...
With my Dad in a wheelchair the line was not a good place, so I asked if they had a Togo menu that I could take it to the table and figure out our order.
The "young" kid behind the cash register said they didn't have one that we could look at their menu online on our phones. I must've looked at him like he was from another planet, because I finally said OK and went back to the table hoping my mom would pull it up on her phone, She's much better on her phone then I am, she does Facebook and all that social media, my phone is the phone in a text machine. Shortly after sitting down William who I later find out is the manager of this MOD pizza, came over to our table and offered to help by pulling out his phone and walking us through their pizza ordering process. And with his patience help we easily accomplished our first order at MOD Pizza. So with the order in hand I got in line and started through the process...
The roasted apple salad which was the flash salad for the day was excellent the mixture of taste and textures made it a very enjoyable salad. We ordered two pizzas for the three of us, they seem small but with the salads it was more than enough we ended up with to go boxes. As I was getting drinks I walked by William who was at the pizza oven and I asked him if we could get those a little on the crispy side, he said no problem I'll show it to you before I serve it. It took my parents drink to the table came back to get mine and some other condiments and William says he'll take a look what do you think? I said they look perfect so I finished and got everything to the table. The crust was cooked perfectly just enough to be a crunchy bottom crust with a little chewy inside. The red sauce was spiced perfectly, we could tell it definitely just didn't come out of a can. The fresh toppings everything was perfect, I'd put it in the top five pizzas I've ever eaten. Harvey, who is the young man behind the cash register as I came through the line came by our table a couple of times to check on us and make sure that everything was to our expectations, we eagerly replied that everything was great!
All of the staff that we encountered in our visit were very friendly very eager to please us and just a pleasure to find a place that had above and beyond customer service. William on his way out the door with his dinner in hand after a hard day I'm sure stop by and make sure that we were still doing OK and if there was anything he could do for us. Which we again replied that everything was great. Even the staff, who I found out most were very new, seem to be having a fun time working here. When was the last time you saw a bunch of young people having a good time working...
And we are not a family that usually will give false credit... This MOD pizza experience was enough that I will visit them in Houston and this store anytime I come to Rockwall.
Keep it up you have a good combination of friendly and helpful service, quick service and great tasting food! As a sidenote their Marion blackberry I think it was, lemonade was most excellent... tart and not overly sweet, I may be back just for that! read more
