I agree.............it's horrible. It's cheap, that's about it. And that was up in PA. They seem to be universally terrible.

CiCi's is disgusting...I'd rather eat Dominoes or Little Caesers, and they are awful too.

What kind of food do you expect for all you can eat pizza , pasta and dessert all for $5
Brixx pizza is fresh oven fired and is about $9 for an individual pizza.

I like the Golden Corral comparison. You go to CiCi's to strap on the feed bag and eat the quantity. If you're looking for quality, go elsewhere.

I guess we're in the minority but we like it. My son loves Fuel Pizza and we like Little Caesars and Papa Johns.

It's fine if you like Cici's. We are just trying to say it's like comparing Long John silvers to Oceanaire's seafood. Two totally different types of quality and price.

The trick with eating at Ci-Ci's is ordering a custom pizza, even if it's just pepperoni. The pizza isn't bad if it's fresh, so order it up, they will ask how many slices you want and then bring it out to you. Much better than the stuff that's been sitting on the buffet, but yes, it's still fast food pizza.

There's a ton of mentions of other pizza places on here, so I won't get into those, but if anyone knows of a place that has a "cracker-crust" I'd love to know about it. There's a place back home (Illinois) called Monical's Pizza that has a real think crispy crust that actually crunches a little when you bite into it...I miss that pizza. Any recommendations would be great!

I only go for the buffet, I don't order whole pizzas. You get what you pay for $5. I don't mind it, i find it better than vocelli's, which charged $15 for a pizza (where are the toppings, no grease is not a topping). But if you are going for a good pizza, try elsewhere as others have mentioned. My family likes to go when there are more of us, because they have many types of pizza, salad and a pasta bar. Dessert and Soda.. hey.. mmm Now I am hungry for Ci Ci's.

True - but then you could go outside, eat some dried mud, and have the same experience while also saving $5

It is about as good as you would expect for $5.
