Pizza Hut

In 2006 I got a meat lovers pizza at the Union Road location and it was great. That was the last good pizza I got from Pizza Hut. The last two happened to be from the French Road location and I was disappointed. I could have gone around the corner to Santora’s where you also pay top buck but you get a great pizza every time. A restaurant is only as good as the staff, and national chains are no exception.

I refused to rate this place just so I won’t be the bad guy. But it is what it is and no doubt I wished I could give a better rating. The last time I visited Pizza Hut was about a couple months ago in New Jersey and I was surprised with how good the pizza was. I thought to give Pizza Hut in Buffalo a try. Not so lucky this time.
I ordered skinny club which was a white pizza with grilled chicken, garlic Parmesan, tomatoes, and fresh spinach. Sounded good, right? I liked the taste of the toppings but not the crust. It wasn’t far from a frozen pizza (DiGiorno pizza) with outrages price.
I also ordered super supreme with cheese-​filled crust. Not much different than the first pizza. It tasted so salty it could raised my blood pressure up to the roof. I was in between, «Oh darn I paid $ 37.99 for these pizza and I have to eat it» AND «oh darn I paid this much for these pizza and my husband better eat it.»
Well neither of us could do it. Nope.
One good thing about this place is that the to go order can be picked up at drive thru window. Very convenient for the customers especially in this cold weather.
Unfortunately I don’t think I’ll make a second trip here.

I’m calling it Pity Hut because I pity anyone that eats here.
Pizza Hut would be substandard in most towns. But in Buffalo it has to be considered an insult to Buffalo Pizza, which is the best pizza on earth. It’s not the worst food you’ll ever eat, but there are at least 100 better Pizzerias in WNY.
Personal Experience: I have only been to this location once. I was staying over for the night at my friend’s house (hello Heather) in these parts, and she wanted to get Pizza from here because she had a coupon. Well great, but that doesn’t help the fact that the Pizza is utterly awful. We «shared» it which meant I had half a slice and gave up, because I just hate it. She had 2 – 3 slices and said it was «just ok.»
So why do you order from there darling? Jeez.
Seriously, if you want Pizza in WNY, you don’t need to look beyond the fearsome foursome… Zip’s i North Buffalo (on Hertel)… Imperial in South Buffalo… and Pauly’s and Bozanna’s in Clarence. Pizza Hut? You have to be kidding.

This is a nice litttle location on the corner in the Big K Plaza and it became one of my dreams come true.
Too cold in the Buffalo Snow? Feet tired?
THEY HAVE A DRIVE THROUGH!
You need to call ahead, no ordering at the window. For the busy exec or mom on the way home, you can call on your cell and place your order (not while you’re driving, please) and go pick up your pie.
They even take debit/​credit cards so you don’t even have to waste a stop getting cash.
A time saver although a little pricey compared to competitors.
BUT THEY HAVE A DRIVE THROUGH!
