    This location sucks. Always messing up something. Sometimes they forget to slice the pizza. Sometimes they don't slice deep enough and you'll have to recut at home. Today they forgot to seasoned their pepperoni pizza, something was off. Tasted very bland. Donatos is my favorite pizza franchise, it was not good. When I picked up my order through the pick-up window, the employee had my order and he instead turn around and had a 2 min conversation with one of the other employee. That conversation could had waited after you gave me my order. Sitting in the car looking through the window while they give zero care. I love Donatos but this location is trash. This location is very close to me but I think I will drive the extra distance to somewhere else from now on.

    The Donatos on Thurman has been there for 48 years that I remember. I would go here at 14 to get pizza, you could smell it up the block. It was more family friendly back then, with seating, but still has great service, and oh that wonderful smell takes me back to 14 again. I visit every time I'm in Columbus.
