    I came here after seeing all the reviews. I can guarantee that majority have never traveled out of state and had real pizza. First and foremost, as soon as you enter the ambiance is horrible. Customer service was nonexistent. After we ordered our food we waited, and waited, and waited some more. We were the only ones in there at the time so the long wait made no sense. Then the food came out and was room temperature and the employee said it was sitting in the kitchen and it’s because they have a new system. We had the meat lovers, buffalo chicken, cheese calzone, and wings. The only item from these that was good was the buffalo chicken. That’s why i gave a 2 rating instead of a 1. The pizza sauce is extremely bland and lacked any flavor. I drove nearly 45 minutes for this but will not do that again and definitely will not recommend it to anyone.

    The pieces are great I love it I love the halal aspect of it as well The cream sauce is the best but it doesn't make me want to stay there and eat in the establishment. This is definitely a takeout place.

    Magoo’s Pizza is a place we have been going to for many, many years, ever since it first opened. Anytime we drive from Chicago to Kentucky or head down Highway 65, this is a mandatory stop for us. Quite honestly, this is some of the best pizza you can find, especially when it comes to halal pizza. The flavors are outstanding, and the combinations just work. The white sauce pizzas are incredible.... whether you go for meat lovers, chicken tikka, or a mix with chicken and beef, you really cannot go wrong. This is the kind of pizza where there are no leftovers. It gets finished every single time. I even remember trying their chocolate kebab pizza a long time ago. I cannot fully remember the details, but I do remember that it was pretty decent and definitely memorable for being so unique. The wings are okay, but the pizza is absolutely where Magoo’s shines. That is clearly their specialty and what keeps people coming back. The restaurant is always busy, packed with both locals and travelers, Muslims and non Muslims alike. Another thing that really sets Magoo’s apart is that they have a dedicated prayer area, which shows a genuine level of thoughtfulness and care for the community they serve. That kind of consideration makes a big difference and is deeply appreciated. This most recent visit was after many years, and I was happy to see that the food quality has not changed at all. It is still just as delicious and just as high quality as I remembered. The kids loved it as well. I had hyped it up for so long that I was a little worried it might not live up to expectations... but it absolutely did. I honestly wish they had more locations across America, because places like this deserve to be everywhere. Magoo’s Pizza is a must stop if you are passing through Indianapolis. If you know, you know.

    Salaam. Magoos pizza 🍕 is amazing. They don't miss! The pizza is always fresh and hot 🔥 and so delicious. I'm excited because I don't eat pork so it's refreshing to be able to halal sausage and pepperoni. The garlic sauce is the best of the best. Needless to say, we ❤️ Magoos.

    I don’t know where to start! The staff was super friendly. Whomever was FOH seemed to already know regular customers orders and overall seemed like a community. The food is out of this world. I can look at the pizza and tell how fresh it is. (First time customer) I’ve never had pizza like this before. The brownie is delightful as well. Truly amazing. Will be returning and telling others about Magoos.
