    I would NOT recommend this location to anyone. We just left. Not once did our waitress check on us. Pizza variety was LOW and I do mean, LOW! We will take our business back to the one in Henderson for future trips. This place needs to step it up.

    So this was kind of trash. The salad bar is decent-ish. The lettuce is shredded, which is odd for a salad. The buffet was pretty limited for 5PM on a weekday. They didn't have pepperoni or sausage or any of the "standard" pizza offerings. The pizza was all pretty old looking. It was RIDICULOUSLY overpriced. Three people with drinks was almost $60. It was edible and you could put in a special order, but I won't be back.

    I grew up eating at Pizza Inn and was so excited to see this location while driving through the area. The restaurant itself was clean, and the food was very good. Unfortunately, that’s where our positive experience ended. There was a complete lack of service from start to finish. Not once did anyone come to our table to check on us, refill our drinks, or clear away the dirty dishes that were piling up. After waiting quite a while, I finally went up to the counter, where a young girl working side-eyed me while scrolling on her phone. I politely told her our table needed drink refills, and she rolled her eyes as if I was inconveniencing her. When she eventually came to our table, she slammed the pitchers down and refilled our cups without saying a single word or even making eye contact. It was uncomfortable and incredibly unprofessional. I’m really disappointed because I’ve always loved Pizza Inn and expected the same friendly, welcoming atmosphere I remembered from growing up. Sadly, this visit left a very bad impression, and I won’t be returning to this location.
