Some love Pizza Hut for childhood memories.  Personally, mine was Little Cesars.  I loved the crazy bread and little personal square pizzas as a kid.  Since Some love it for 90s nostalgia.  Some simply love it and some don’t.  The location in Cedar Rapids, Iowa that has NO indoor seating, so this one was taken to my house.  You can order online and have it ready for you when you arrive, which is a nice feature.  They email you a 3d barcode to scan from your phone to unlock a little oven door that keeps your pizza warm for you until you can pick it up. No human interaction needed with the employees, it’s pretty slick!

The Verdict
Sauce: The sauce was decent. Not too thick and not too thin. 
Cheese: The cheese was cold by the time I got home. This actually tasted like decent cheese (unlike the previous Pizza Hut’s attempt).
Crust: Many enjoyed the pretzel crust, but I did like the deep dish.  Spongey goodness from that pizza!
Toppings: sparse except on the meat pizzas-those were loaded. 

Final Comments/Considerations: I think it’s a good buy, especially for the deep dish. However, you won’t be getting anything fancy.  A solid go-to for cheap eats.
