Hungry Howie’s Pizza

the pizzas are on par with what you’d expect from a chain these days .as good as Dominoes for example. Delivery even on busy nights like Saturday is faster than the others. We’ve used them for years.
The reason for the lower than average rating however is due to their repeatedly getting our orders wrong lately, usually for placement of the toppings (which half gets what), or in the most recent case, leaving a topping off entirely tho we were still charged for it. That’s just sloppy quality control and service, and is making me think twice about ordering from them again. Since we order online, the store gets a printout of the exact pizza specs, and the printout receipt is always correct for what we ordered… so it’s not a case of something accidentally not written down or miscommunication. it’s the execution that lacks.

Pizza tastes great. My first time at this location as I usually go to the one in Indian Trail. Same great tasting pizza, but the employees at this location don’t seem to like to use latex gloves, preferring to use their bare hands instead. I have a huge problem with that. I don’t know where your hands have been. I was really hungry and really tired after a long day. I will come back again and I will point this out. They need to fix this or lose at least one customer. Would have had more stars except for this problem.

I have ordered from this particular location on numerous occasions. On average probably twice a month. Food is usually what I expected and I like their product. Service on the other hand isn’t up to snuff. Several times they’ve screwed my order up, often leaving ingredients off completely. The last time I ordered they left chicken off my order and I was told that I’d get a credit on my account for the next time. So tonight I called my order in (I usually do it online). An individual named Zach answered, and I proceeded to place my order. Simple order, 2 salads, 1 antipasta, and one basic with nothing but mushroom and chicken. I asked for the breaded chicken instead of the grilled. Zach informed me that they didn’t offer the breaded anymore. No problem I said, «do you still offer the boneless chicken wings»? «Yes» he replied. «Fine» says I, «I’ll take a separate order of those!» I didn’t ask for him to substitute, although that seems to me like it would have been simple enough. But hey, that’s just me. Total order with driver tip -$ 27.83
Anyway, that’s not even why I’m upset. So at the end of my order I say to Zach that I think I have a credit on my account from them leaving an ingredient off the last time, it was maybe a buck or two. His reply was that he didn’t see it. I reply that I assure him that I’m not lying about it. Again, he replies that it’s not there. I then ask to speak to a manager, and Zach informs me that he is the manager. Flabbergasted, I tell him to just place the order as is, and proceeded to tell him what real customer service looks like, and that am a frequent customer. Zach proceeds to tell me that the last time I ordered was 2010. Yeah, maybe by phone! So, not only has this guy insulted me by insinuating that I’m lying about a couple of bucks, now I’m lying about how often I shop there! You’re on a roll Zach! I’ve spent hundreds of dollars with this particular HH over the past couple of years, and for a freak’n couple of dollars and some power trip they’ll no longer get my business.

This place is so slowwwww!!! Not a place to order from when you’re hungry and looking for something last minute. Take so long to deliver pizza and by the time it gets to you you forget that you even order the pizza in the first place! Other than that, taste good and customer service is okay

Ordered delivery for lunch, got a combo with a regular (8 in.) calzone and a 20oz. drink for $ 5. My first time ordering from this location, and I had a good experience. There doesn’t seem to be a delivery minimum, and I got my order in just 25 minutes, even though I was quoted 55 min. on the site.
As for the food, I got the pizza deluxe, which is cheese, sauce, and your choice of three toppings. I went meat-​centric with pepperoni, ground beef, and bacon. The flavors were clean and straight-​forward, and reminded me a lot of something I might make at home. The bacon and beef were both good quality which is kinda a crap shoot, and the sauce was just a straight tomato flavor, not too sweet or overly herbaceous. My only regret is that it was a little greasy, but that’s my own fault for going with three meats. Next time, I’d probably stick to one, or throw something like onions or green pepper in instead.
Good for a quick lunch.

This is by Farr a very great tasting pizza restaurant! There’s something about this place that is great! Even my husband loved it and he’s not a big pizza fan! But unfortunately I live in concord and there’s not a hungry HOWIES in concord so I have to order take at hungry HOWIES every time I go to charlotte for work! I love the crust and the pizza just blows my mind and the prices are unbelievable! I always order online it’s fast and they are speedy Gonzales when it comes to making a pizza! They are better then little Ceasers and now Pizza Hut! I wish they would build one in concord one day :) Thank you for the awesome pizza and I love the name it’s cute!

I’ve been craving breadsticks since I picked up some from Target. (Pizzahut breadsticks) (they’re so good!)
Anyways, So this is right by where we live, I ordered the howie bread.
It’s so chewy, not like jets doughy that you can actually chew, this is like chewing a piece of rubber.
Whatever seasoning they put on top it has no flavor whatsoever with a hint of bitter.
I couldn’t eat it after the first piece.
Bland $ 5 of waste!

The Howie bread was excellent, the pizza was ok… too much sauce, causing it to be soggy, but still pretty good

Stopped in here because the kids were hungry, yet again. The pizza is made to order and their speciality is flavored crust made with different flavors including onion, butter cheese, garlic herb, and sesame. We opted for original. I like the pizza size options. Medium is quite a bit and was plenty for the three of us to have a snack after we’d already had dinner. The place was pretty busy as I guess there are a lot of hungry kids coming out of the dance studio.

I had a great relationship with this particular Howie’s store until a couple of weeks back, when I got a call from the manager informing me that his driver could not deliver to my area. I explained to him that I had ordered from his store several times and the drivers always delivered it to me without any problem. In fact, the Howie’s website lists his store as the Howie’s that is supposed to service my part of town. He simply said that he couldn’t help me and refunded my money (I had already placed the order and was waiting for my pizza for an hour. The manager said he tried to call but apparently the low rent employee who took my order wrote down my number incorrectly.) I love Howie’s pizza but this particular store is clueless. Don’t depend on them for anything.

Medium Veggie pizza with garlic crust. Mighty tasty if you ask me and only $ 10. Take out/​delivery, sure is quick. Def better than the many other chain store pizza choices in the surrounding plazas (Little Caesars and Pizza hut).
Physical location is small, located somewhere between Harris Teeter and New Zealand Café, and parking is plentiful. Also, many coupons to be had.

Hungry Howie’s satiates that pizza craving for less G’s than Papa Johns or Pizza Hut and is marginally more satisfying than Little Caesars. I was full and content, but not overly impressed.
Hungry Howies drew me in with cheap pizza deals. On Wednesdays, you can get 3 one-​topping pizzas from $ 5 a pie, so I figured «Why Not?». When I got there, the place was packed and the staff were understandably taxed by all the orders. Good peeps, though. The crust was… well, spongy for a lack of a better word. Not crispy, but kinda chewy. The chewiness was exacerbated by warming up leftovers the next day (no, I didn’t eat all three in one day). The cheese and the sauce tasted fresh and the toppings had atleast some flavor.
Overall, not a bad place to get pizzas from your workplace or groups of people that you nominally like. I can’t stay that my pizza craving won’t sway me back if I happen to be in this shopping center, starving, and get a whiff of baking pizza. My pizza craving doesn’t discriminate…

Good not great pizza. This is a chain store there big thing is flavored crusts which is pretty good. I go with butter!
Allergy alert: Their sauce does not have garlic in it so if you know of someone who has a garlic allergy they can eat this pizza sauce without worry of garlic (make sure to check again before trying it, just to make sure).

Great pizza at a great price! We order from this place even though it’s on the other side of Matthews from where we live. Sure beats Domino’s or Papa John’s.
