    Bread Sticks

    If I could give a 0 star I 100% would. I ordered parm garlic wings, cheese breadsticks, and a pizza. I give the pizza a solid 2/10 for it wasn't even done all the way. The wings came exactly how you see it.... Stacked in a pile of parm garlic sauce. The breadsticks came with a literal clump of cheese just sitting on top of it (two of them are gone, still had to feed the children). I called and spoke with a manager because we hadn't had this issue before. Mrs. Katherine is who I spoke to. She stated, "I made those myself, no way they turned out like that. It's just how they are." And then proceeded to tell me I was wrong and to call DoorDash for my problems not them. NOT to mention they were ALL burnt... now I'm not one to even leave reviews and the only reason I am is due to the dogsh*t service I got when I called.

    A must try when in Newark! Grew up going to Pizza Cottage out at Buckeye Lake and was thrilled to realize that the Pizza Cottage was in Newark. Restaurant was very clean and tons of seating, small bar up front. Had breadsticks, cheesy garlic bread and pepperoni pizza - JUST as delicious as I remember it from 20 years ago!!! Server, Alex, was outstanding! Great experience!

    Garden Salad

    Pizza was decent but the salads left a lot to be desired. I ordered the Garden Salad and opted to not eat it since it was primarily white and brown. Drive thru pickup is convenient enough. Really gross salad.

    Awful BLT pizza

    Delicious food .. especially pizza but prices are high! Lunch special prices are great for a mini one topping pizza, deli salad and a drink!

    Every time our food comes back it's made wrong. Very lazy service. Wouldn't recommend leaving without checking your order.

    Recommend all the way. Best BLT pizza. As well, the customer service is always wonderful. If you're in town, I'd stop by.

    This was our first time trying this place. The pizza was very good and the calzone was even…read morebetter. The restaurant was EXTREMELY clean. I would certainly go back.

    Update: As a loyal customer at their Johnstown location, I've been ordering from them at least once…read morea week via DoorDash since they opened. Tonight, I found out they charged me $.86 for a packet of mayonnaise for an Italian sub and an extra $1.00 for some red onions on a small salad. In a previous order, I contacted the company via email because I hadn't seen any onions in the salad. The manager responded quickly by sending me clips of their security cameras showing the cook chopping onions and adding them to the salad. I admit there were onions in the salad after stirring it up, but they didn't seem more than the usual amount in a normal salad. It's laughable that the manager took the time to review security footage instead of just refunding the $1.00 charge and saying from now on, that fee will be added. Against my better judgment, I kept ordering, but tonight, I was charged again for the packet of mayo. I spend at least $25 a week there, often more, and these two instances leave such a bad taste in my mouth. While companies are free to charge whatever they want, frivolous charges like these really hurt the relationship for me. Tonight was the final straw with the $.86 mayo charge. I understand that maybe their business is struggling in this economy and maybe they need the money, but I hope it was worth losing so much more. From now on, I'll be using many other pizza places in town!

    My husband and I have always made it a point to stop at Plaza Pizza whenever we're in Newark…read more Unfortunately, our most recent visit was a huge disappointment. The restaurant just doesn't seem to have recovered since COVID. They no longer offer dine-in service, and all of the tables have been pushed in front of the prep area, so customers can no longer watch the pizzas being made--a feature that used to add to the experience. The condition of the restaurant was concerning. The ceiling tiles were stained and discolored, several were out of place leaving openings to the floor above, and there appeared to be visible mold on ceiling tiles and around the vent above the pizza ovens and prep area. Given the location, it raised concerns for me about sanitation and food safety. The drink cooler was completely empty. When we asked, we were simply told they were out of beverages. We ended up buying drinks from the business next door, where they mentioned that Plaza Pizza customers regularly come there because the pizza shop doesn't have beverages available. The pizza itself wasn't what we remembered. The signature cracker crust that made Plaza Pizza special is gone. It lacked the crisp, fresh texture it once had and instead tasted stale. The bottoms of both pizzas were also dotted with black debris from the oven deck -- the oven decks have been cleaned between pizzas which should be a standard operating procedure. The restaurant was extremely hot inside, and I noticed ingredients such as sauce being kept in containers on the counter rather than in a refrigerated prep table. Having spent many years working in food service, those observations prompted me to review recent Licking County health inspection reports. I found multiple repeat violations that had reportedly remained uncorrected, which made the issues I observed even more concerning. This restaurant used to be one of our favorite stops, and it's disappointing to see how far it has declined. I genuinely hope the owners invest in cleaning, maintenance, and stronger food safety practices because Plaza Pizza was once a local gem. Until then, we'll be taking our business elsewhere.
