An old cliche is, "Sex is like pizza: When it's good, it's REALLY good. When it's bad, it's still pretty good." Xtreme Pizza proves that this is not true. (At least, concerning pizza.) Their pizza is - and I use this term specifically - literally the worst I have ever eaten. Worse than the worst frozen pizza I've ever had. Bad, in this case, is just plain bad.
I ordered their "Meatzza Pizza" and added jalepeños. The total, for pick-up, came just north of $20. You can look at the photo and see that this ridiculously overpriced. I don't mind paying a lot for pizza if the pizza is tasty. Or even decent. But this neither.
I ordered an "Xtra Large" (advertised as 16-inches) and I'll admit it came in a 16-inch box. But the pizza wasn't even close to 16 inches. Worse, the ingredients didn't come close to the edge of the crust, so it was about a 10-inch pie on a 13-inch crust, advertised as a 16-inch pizza.
I'd ordered "thin crust" ($1 extra !?!?!) and I don't even know how to describe it. It was unlike any pizza crust I've ever eaten. It was crumbly, but not crisp. It was not "doughy" at all. If I tried to fold it like a traditional New York slice it broke in half. One word: Nasty.
I was glad I paid extra for the jalapeños, because nothing else had any flavor. What scarce meat could be found was rubbery and bland. The cheese was sparse, overcooked and flavorless. (I'm not convinced it was even real cheese!)
And while I'm on the subject of "overcooked" let's talk about this miracle: I ordered online for in-store pickup. I was informed it would be ready in "15 to 20 minutes." 18 minutes after ordering I walked to the counter and was given a box that contained my cold, sad, forlorn little pizza. Not a pizza that was "cooling". It was cold. As if it had been sitting out for an extended period on a cold countertop.
I'm so disappointed. I'd NEVER go back, and the best advice I can give you is to stay far, far away from Xtreme Pizza.
