Pizza Inn @ Alliance

Pizza Inn

A very cool alternative to CiCi's Pizza. Better Salad Bar!

Of course my favorite is the Chocolate Chip and Vanilla Pudding Pizza!

Introduction

This was a great experience. The kids enjoy it.

We had to try this new (Been in Business since the 1960's but new to us) place called Pizza Inn. It was an absolute pleasure. If you've ever been to a CiCi's it's very much the same... just better.

Clean Fresh Environment. Friendly staff. That was the first thing I noticed. The whole staff down to the very last person seemed genuinely happy to be there. I am big proponent of treating your staff well so that they treat the customers well. This place seems to do so.

Food

The Pizza bar had more selection that CiCi's generally has without asking. The Manager/Chef was constantly calling out pizza's as they left the oven so the diners would know there was a new selection. There was always a new selection. He kept the trays full and varied.

Dessert Pizza's were no exception either. There was so many different kinds, unlike the two or three I'm used to. They even had a Chocolate Chip Cookie Pizza, which won my heart immediately.

There was also a FULL salad bar, different lettuce choices, many veggies, potato salad, macaroni salad, and two soups. 

They carried Dr. Pepper AND Root Beer my favorite and my Wife's Favorite! Anyplace without Dr. Pepper is sub-par immediately... lol

Cost

It's a bit more expensive than CiCi's. It was about $7 plus drinks per adult and $4 per kid, but there are coupons on the website you can print and bring in. It's also worth the extra because the experience was more enjoyable. I didn't feel like I was settling for less because I didn't have a "Full Service Restaurant" budget that day.

Games

There was a small arcade that takes quarters, always a plus with kids. They also had four TV's to watch the Ranger Game on! Always a plus.

Tip for the Consumer:

Special Orders - You don't see what you want? Just ask anyone and they will special order it for you. And so that you don't feel bad, maybe you just wanted two slices and you don't want the rest going to waste, they'll just put it up and the bar and announce that a special order of XYZ Pizza is now available so you can get as much or little as you want. There have been so many times I didn't order what I wanted because I didn't want them to waste a whole pizza on me, not at Pizza Inn. They just put it up front and you get what you want. Easy, no pressure.

Bring some cash... there are people walking around constantly asking if you need anything, taking your empty/used plates. It would be a great idea to leave a few dollars as a "Thank you" Tip for the hard working young people. Also the coins would be helpful if you want to play the games.... ok, I'm sure it's just for the kids right?
