    Good place to work along with good food. I worked there from 1990 to 1995.

    First time eating there. We had pizza and onion rings. Wasn’t disappointed in anything. Food and service were both good. My wife and I are different when it comes to food. She is a very picky eater, and there’s nothing I won’t eat. We’ve been to several places to find a pizza she likes, and for her, they have to have onion rings, too. She said that Chucks might be are go to place from now on for pizza, and onion tings. We both enjoyed it enough that we will be looking at other food on the menu next time. We will definitely be going back.

    Had family in town and decided to go to Chucks. Hadn't been in awhile and won't go back. The spaghetti was just awful ( the "sauce" was a strange mystery ) and the meatball was disgusting! It tasted like soap- actually worse than soap. The Grinder had zero flavor.I used to love Chucks and was so sad about the experience.The service was very good, tho.

    I ordered a large anchovy pizza which was awesome. Jade was very friendly and helpful so was the cook. I haven't been there in years but I definitely will be back.
