The food is sub par. The pizza is greasy and the dough is somewhat reminiscent of cardboard. In fact, the only reason I ever went to this place was for their amazing cheeseburger clubs. Unfortunately my final experience with them sealed the deal that I will never be a returning customer. (sucks for them because i would literally order about four club sandwiches a week between my fiancee and myself).
I placed an order for two club sandwiches and a calzone for pickup. I got to the restaurant and paid for the food. I was handed two bags and told I was all set. I walked out, sat in the car for a moment and waited for a family to pass behind me to enter the Karate class next door, then drove home. Upon my arrival I found a distinct lack of Calzone. I called the restaurant and was informed I had left it on the counter. Not so, I took everything handed to me. I told the woman I would come back to get it, and she said not to worry about it they would drop it off in a few minutes.
45 mintes later......No calzone. I called up and inquired as to where it was. I was told they had to wait for the next delivery and it would be on it's way momentarily. I asked why it wasn't given to me, they said I left it and they tried to run out and give it to me but I drove away too quick. Remember that karate family I mentioned? yea, no way they came running out after me, I would have seen them. And way to blame the customer for your mistake. Good service skills.
90 minutes later......No calzone. I called yet again, this time the owner answered. He informed me the driver couldn't find my apartment. So I asked him why he didn't have the decency to call me since he already took my money. His response? It was dinner time and he couldn't find my number. I asked when I would be getting my calzone, he told me after dinner. I told him it was completely unacceptable since i offered to come back for it in the first place, and now it was two hours after I paid for the thing.
30 minutes later......Knock Knock. The owner shows up with my food. Needless to say I was not hungry, but I figured for the trouble I might as well have a piece. It was terrible. I bet he nuked the original calzone out of spite. The broccoli was like rubber, and the chicken was dried out. No offer of a refund. No coupons for a next visit. No apology. Squat.
I haven't been back since, and I am glad, because I've learned of a cockroach infestation. Which brings me to the actual restaurant. It was always dirty inside. The tables were always sticky, the napkin dispensers were usually empty. The floor seemed perpetually unswept. Eating inside the restaurant was always an uncomfortable experience. A friend of mine. Anthony, used to deliver for them, and when I raised concerns he always told em the kitchen was clean, and it was the lazy cashiers that neglected the lobby. Whatever. it's a moot point. I haven't gone back there since and I don't think I am missing out on anything. For good pizza go to Cobb Corner Pizzeria. As a matter of fact, everything they have to offer at Cobb's is better than Pizza Market. Yup.
Final summation, skip it. Save yourself a bottle of pepto and endless aggrevation and seek pizza elsewhere. If they treated a loyal customer this way, how are they going to treat a first timer? read more
