Just Pizza

We haven’t ordered from this place in a long time for multiple reasons. This place used to be the place to order pizza from late last year before we started trying out new places and finding out they’re around here. The typical response we would get is, "Oh, it's Just Pizza again." We stayed away from it then because we were so used to it and there were more places to try out.

Upon placing the order over the phone, they asked for a first and last name along with a phone number. They didn’t know where we were located and wanted to know what streets we were between. They then asked if it was for downstairs or upstairs. This was all weird since we’ve placed many orders from there in the past, but under a different number. We wanted noon for delivery and the guy asked right away if 12:15 was ok. What you’re thinking about now is how we felt. It ended up being way too long for a phone order. This was in purpose of setting up a phone number in their system, even though they spelled the first and last name completely wrong on the receipt.

They came five minutes before noon which was earlier than expected. The delivery guy had everything we asked for including the number of blue cheeses, the plates, and napkins. We got a large pizza cut in 12 slices topped with pepperoni, mushroom, and bacon. The total was price near $25, which is an extremely high price for this order of a large.

Never before were we so full from a large pizza. Two men couldn’t finish this pizza. There were still two and a half slices left after our thirty minute lunch break. When we opened it up, we first noticed it was loaded with toppings, but without piling them on too high. These toppings certainly made this pizza special. It was better than the expected cardboard appeal, better than in the past, and better with toppings. The bacon on the pizza was only the second time for one of us and it was delicious on this pizza. Each topping was $2 and they surely put enough on for that price. Their blue cheese was also great as they’re manufactured just to them.

A lot of people in Buffalo are already familiar with this place by having many locations like a Jim’s Steakout. The pizza can still be easily identified by the eye to the average buffalo pizza consumer. We know what their wings are like and they are very average Buffalo style you would normally get from a pizza place here. They also have an advantage with their hours. They are open every day early at 9 to at most places midnight. After having this pizza today, Just Pizza will be climbing up the rankings for best pizza in Buffalo. All it takes is one pizza to do that.

Final Rating: 4.0 out of 5
