Pizza Dude - Midland

"First the service provide by the two young men on Saturday 16 August 2025 was above and beyond good. Second, the Green Goddess pizza is awesome.

Third, the atmosphere inside the building was inhumanely HOT!!!!! Being a veteran who has served two wars in the middle East I am very familiar with hot work atmosphere so it is with good authority I say those employees deserve a better working environment, especially here in Midland, MI USA.

As I mentioned the two employees I met were respectful, cheerful, and dedicated proven by their willingly enduring inhumane work conditions."

"I’m not sure who takes the orders, but it would be great if the same person who answers the phone also greeted customers at pickup. The person I spoke to on the phone had an upbeat, positive attitude, which I really appreciated! However, when I picked up my order, the experience was very different—the staff member who handed me my food seemed indifferent, not necessarily rude, but the contrast was noticeable. A simple “thanks for coming in” would have made a difference.

As for the pizza, I went back and forth on how to rate this place. On the plus side, it’s probably one of the best value deals for pizza around. They don’t skimp on toppings, and you really get a lot for your money. However, consistency seems to be an issue. My mom had a problem the first time she ordered, but we decided to give it a try while visiting her. Unfortunately, my calzone was so undercooked that the bottom was just raw dough (I’ve attached a picture). I know the difference between melted cheese and raw dough, and this was definitely raw. Meanwhile, my mom’s pizza from a previous order had the opposite problem—it was completely burnt.

On the bright side, I’ve heard great things about the owner, and she made things right with my mom’s order, which says a lot. Unfortunately, since we were only in town for a birthday party, we didn’t have time to go back and have our order fixed. But ideally, customers shouldn’t have to keep coming back just to get things right in the first place.

Overall, this place offers great value—tons of toppings and generous portions—but the flavor itself is just okay. It feels like they load up the pizza to compensate for something missing, maybe in the sauce or cheese. That said, if you’re local and don’t mind checking your pizza before leaving (or getting a replacement if needed), this is a great option, especially for parties. But if you’re just passing through and looking for a reliable, hassle-free pizza spot, you might want to consider other options."

"Phenomenal! I ordered the chicken Alfredo pizza. My wife, who is very picky when it comes to pizza, was very impressed as well.
Not too salty, well balanced flavor, and a good price."
