Lets Talk Pizza Buffet!

Before I get started Happy Birthday Kim... love ya sister!

I should start off with I loooooove pizza, like I really love pizza. Now I am not a fan of New York Style, I love the cheese, and misc confetti of random toppings slapped together to make a special treat that requires no dishes to wash, really how can you go wrong with that.... I ask you... how?

So Pizza Buffets, you can imagine is mmm mmm good in my eyes, cause you can have as much as you want, and for me that works great. I am a bit of a gluten. My favorite part about pizza buffet is you get salad, and there is no fighting over what pizza to get. So this is a two-fer because it is really important to know about the good, the okay, and the ugly.

The Good: Round Table Pizza

I have been to a couple of them in the valley just to make sure... And let me tell you their pizza is so good, they kick all the kinds of pizza, not just the cheap pizzas, this is where I finally discovered the Maui Zaui, it is a hawaiian style pizza but you can get a choice of sauce. The other sauce choice is a sweet chili sauce (I buy it at the Thai Grocery Store), oh man this is truly good.

It is a good time to try new pizzas and their salad bar is really good, the lettuce is really fresh, and there is so many toppings to choose from, I think I counted 15 or so toppings. I almost forgot about the cheesy breads and cinnamon stick... 2 words Sticky Goodness, by far the best I had ever had, they are that good if they stopped selling the pizza, and served only those I would be super fine with that.

Everything is real nice, the set up at the Mary's Vineyard is a little small but it seems that everyone is real patient about it, and well its worth it. They keep the place real clean no visible signs of grossness, and the customer service has always been really good, and that is pretty hard.

The Mom & Pop: There is a pizza place with a sports theme on Ben Maddox and Douglass kind there is a Git & Go there. I found that the pizza there was okay, Pepperoni seemed to be the theme of the day, which I am not saying thats bad, a good pepperoni is fine with me, but at a buffet I expect variety. I believe that is the whole point of it. The place was uncluttered and could use an updating but all in all clean from my side.

The pizza was good, and the salad bar, though the variety was few, I thought it was good. The place is huge though, and the price is real good cause it includes the drink.

The Ugly: Man I hate these, the ugly that are disguised, I went into Pizza Hut and expected good pizza, after all I use to eat at the one on Mooney Blvd, like all the time as a teenager. So I bop in, sit down, situate, and ready myself for the mission at hand. The restaurant was super clean and decorated really cute with a mural on the wall. I knew I was in for a treat.

I hate being wrong, what kid of trickery was this. I always come in at the beginning of buffet time when there is a lot of people and the pizzas are constantly being changed out, for freshness reasons. The pizzas looked alot like the frozen variety you buy at the store. I had hoped that it would be different. I wasn't bad like frozen, but certainly not good like restaurant, which was odd, again no variety there was a veg, a peperoni, and a meat. No specialties, like hey try this one you may want to order it for dinner this weekend. The salad bar was also nothing to get excited about. The breadsticks and cinnasticks.... sad, they were just cut up pieces of crust with seasoning sprinkled lightly on top of them, not pleasing to the eye or the taste buds. So disappointing, and also proves that corporate rules and guidelines don't make for good food for sure.

So there you have it a small sampling of pizza buffets, what's your favorite and why, which ones do you hate. Just keep it clean, this is a family channel... Comments will be moderated in the sense of, if it is not appropriate for a everyone then I just can't put it on...sorry
