Pizza Republic - Richmond

I wanted to amuse this place, I gave it every time I went to fin and feather. decided to get some pizzas tonight to bring the family home. very small place there is no eating in just a few chairs to sit and wait for their order, but I would recommend when it is hot to sit outside because it is like a sauna in there. the personal was super friendly. I had a young lady who helps me with my job and she told me what they had. So I am really sad that I have to give them such a low rating, but I ordered a bark meat, speck and mushroom pizza and the bark meat was rotted. after my first few bites I could taste that the bark was sour. I picked up a few pieces from the bark and sniffed and the smell was insulting. the cheese and pepperoni pizza we have. I hope we don't get sick at the end. as if I had said that everything else was good. I waited in my car with something ac because it was quite hot and they brought the pizzas to me and put them in my back seat, which was very nice. I don't know if this is a fuke, but I doubt that I would give them another chance, corrupted meat is a pretty big thing and I don't want to taste or have to taste.

We will not be ordering from Pizza Republic again and for the person who ordered the olive pizza,cheese pizza, and breadsticks- it was opened in our home TOUCHED and then returned to the shop to be given to you. Disgusting. They blamed Slice but whoever was at the window argued with my husband and I heard them over the phone about an order that was not our mistake. They also said they needed the pizza to be handed out. We have spent so much money at this pizza place and never again! I will be telling all my friends in the Lakeside area never to order here!

Place is doomed. Trash food, I doubt they have a roach problem because it’s that inedible. And a 18 year old punk threatening customers via phone number from old orders. An absolute joke of a human being and place of business.

Very disappointing decline. Used to be our very favorite…for years, back to the Sarj Pepper days. We even moved but still came back for the pizza. But now…how can take-out pizza even be this inedible? Crust tasted sour…and not in a good yeasty way…sauce sweet and heavy on one pizza…nonexistent on the other. What used to set these pizzas apart was flavorful, fresh ingredients. What we got last night was chillingly terrible. Less good than Little Caesars, and not even as good as 7-11. Will try once more, but are very cautious since these last pizzas were so awful. This was probably the first time in my life I have ever said no to eating more.

The pizza I purchased last evening had a different crust than usual. The sauce was different as well. Though my family didn’t enjoy it as much, we will continue to frequent Pizza Republic and this is why. When I picked up my pizza at the window, the gentleman waiting on me went back to get my sauce and returns with the sauce and a bottle of water. As he gave me the water, he said, “You look really tired. I hope you have a better evening.” He was right, I was exhausted. He saw me and extended kindness when I really needed it. That’s what I want in a neighborhood business. Thank you Pizza Republic!
