Little Caesars Pizza

The past three time here pizza’s are never ready. I just get pepperoni and cheese pizza. Alway have to wait. Never have enough people working pizzas never hot and ready.

I don’t think I would do this again. The bread dough is more like cardboard; the cheese is similar to the cardboard container variety; and the tomato sauce leaves a lot to be desired. Definately not my kind of pizza.

There’s NY thin crust, Neapolitan, Chicago Deep Dish, Sicilian, and then there’s $ 5 Little Caesars. It is what it is: Fast, filling, kid friendly and super cheap. Don’t hate the player, hate the game!

It’s Friday night after a busy week, you are tired and just don’t want to cook. For $ 5 you can please the kids (who don’t know any better) and fill your belly. It isn’t the best pizza in the world but it isn’t horrible, it just is what it is.

After my experience at this location I don’t think I will ever go back. I was in the mood for a HOT and READY pizza; this is not what I got. I ordered a cheese pizza, crazy bread, and a two liter soda… the soda was the only thing I was able to eat. When I placed my order I emphasized to the gentleman taking my order, a man named Jeff Rodriguez, who claimed to be the district manager, that I was taking the pizza home and that I wanted a fresh pizza so that it would be HOT when I got home. I was given a pizza out of one of the warmers, skeptical about the freshness I asked him to put a «heat sheet» over the pizza. This is a piece of plastic that goes over the top to keep it hotter longer. Let me tell you that it DID NOT WORK! I decided to have a slice of pizza while I was sitting in traffic, about 10 minutes after I purchased it, and the pizza was already cold. I could tell that it had been sitting out for at least 30 minutes just by looking at it. Not only was I treated unprofessionally by the district manager who looked bothered when I asked him for a fresh pizza and a heat sheet to keep it warm, I also almost gagged because he smelled like an ash tray full of cigarettes. As someone who has purchased over 10 pizzas at this location I have to say that this individuals disrespectful demeanor and dishonesty about the freshness of my food, I can honestly say that I will be bringing my business elsewhere. If the owner or the gentleman who served me sees this post, please realize that if someone asked you for a HOT and FRESH pizza, they want you to make them one, or at least give them one that is steaming hot, because as a frequent little ceasars customer I can tell the difference! I would give you 0 stars if possible and I would not recommend this location to anyone! There is another Little Caesars about 10 minutes down the road off of windward parkway in the Kroger shopping center and they always open the box before I walk out with it to make sure that I am satisfied with the quality and freshness, and if I’m not, they make a brand new one, something the DISTRICT MANAGERof this location didn’t even consider doing, and he knew that I was concerned about the freshness… TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE! THERE ARE MUCH BETTER LITTLE CAESARS OUT THERE!!!

I love how everyone keeps telling me about this «Hot n Ready» stuff that apparently is ready faster than a Big Mac from the Arches of Gold. My family was hungry and bossy, and sent me here.
So, I figured everything was HnR, as the signing may or may not have suggested (just because I wear glasses doesn’t mean they work!) — I just remembering ordering like $ 25 (thats almost like spending $ 25 @ Taco Bell for 2) worth of stuff– and much to my dismay, it was not HnR!!! As I am sitting there drooling at all of the Pepsi (yuck!) products, I swear, 6 customers came in and out with whoknowshowthehelltherestuffwasHnRbeforemine, which I was wondering wth was up!
What seemed to be 9 years later (I almost fell asleep in the chair), I got the stuff and was on my way home (thank goodness I had Rita’s before dinner!). The pizza was ok– but you have to remember– this stuff is like assembly line food so when you are spoiled with places like Antico and Felllini’s, this stuff is like, … … … …
So, if you want a «pizza» fix for cheap, stop by a Little Caeser’s. Just don’t expect to get the secrets of scoring HnR from me.
Hey, at least the staff was nice and they conned me into buying crazy bread.

Rude clerk. Did not have any «Hot & Ready» pizzas ready, as promised in their advertising, at 7 p.m. so I had to wait 15 minutes. The clerk was a bit scary with a very bad attitude. I will not use this store again.

Saw their new Hot N Ready specials on TV. I was driving by and thought why not. For 5 bucks i got a large cheese pizza that was at least better than any frozen. You can’t really beat that. It’s not great but it is pizza and that price can’t be beat, not to mention not wait. Counter guy was a bit blah. but for a $ 5 pizza you can’t expect too much.

The pizza was great and the price can’t be beaten. It was clean, people were attentive and I really enjoyed it.

Life was hard growing up in suburban Tampa, Florida. You know the drill… walking barefooted through the snow to get to school… eating dirt. We also didn’t have the pizza choices today’s modern suburban kids have. We had Little Caesars AND WE LIKED IT! I grew up on this stuff. We ate it all the time. Family pizza night, after a soccer game, at Boy Scouts. It was the perfect pizza. But it only got better. Somewhere along the line, Little Sleazers (as us wisecracking teenagers would call it) introduced their two pizza deal. Two pizzas, in one large rectangular box, for the price of one. It rocked our world.
And not only was the pizza a big deal, but we also liked the ad campaigns. That little Roman dude in his toga was da bomb. «Pizza Pizza. Thank you, Thank you». A masterpiece of Madison Avenue if there ever was one.
Fast forward to today… I’m raising a family in suburban Atlanta. Little Caesars has a pretty thin presence in metro Atlanta. Imagine my delight when I learn that a new franchise is opening near Windward. I was as giddy as a boy before Christmas. Today, finally, after weeks of waiting for them to open, I tried it.
Gone are the two pizza specials. Today’s new gimmick is the walk-​up pizza. There is no calling in! Just stroll your happy self into a store, give the pimply faced kid a five spot and walk out with a pizza. Easy and simple. Being my first time back in a decade, I decided to splurge and add an order of crazy bread. Actually I ordered the «crazy combo» which includes a side of marinara.
So how’s the pizza? Pretty poor actually. For fast food pizza, and for five bucks, it is decent. Better than Cici’s, and probably on par with Papa Johns. The crazy bread was disappointing. It lacked the butter and garlic that I remember as a kid. The marinara sauce was surprisingly good. It had a little bit of zing to it.
For the money, I really enjoyed the trip back through memory lane. I’m not sure if this will become a regular stop for us though. It is a very convenient location. In the hustle of suburban life, it may be easy to grab a pizza from here on the way back from work. The kids won’t mind at all, nor will my wallet. On the other hand, I believe Alpharetta is chock full of really good pizza joints. So we’ll have to see if cheap and convenient win out over delicious and expensive. Stay tuned. Thank you, thank you.
