Filthy! While the price is right($ 5.99 adult buffet), the restaurant is unkempt and very unappetizing. Slices of pizza on the floor, table after table not cleaned from prior patrons, and less than friendly restaurant staff make this a restaurant I won’t visit again. Perhaps other Cici’s locations are better; this is the only location at which I have dined in Tampa.

So I come in today for lunch. Having eaten at many CiCis pizza in the past around Tampa and Orlando, so I’m well aware of what to expect. Well it’s lunch time right now. They have nothing as far as selection, one person changing out pizzas, and a line of people looking confused and disappointed. So far I got a soda, and 2 slices of cheese. This location sucks. Believe all the reviews. Oh yeah, the WiFi here blows.

Supposed to be the best or one of the best pizza in Tampa. I went for the white anchovy. Looks great, very fresh ingredients… but the base !!! So disappointing. As soft and non crusty as a Pizza Pizza. Pizzaïolo, a good pizza base should not be like an Indian Nan! ;-) Panna Cotta had artificial flavors. Service is professional… that’s it.

Ugh my love for Cicis was dying until I came here ! This is by far the best one still left. They have a NEWOWNER who is remarkable, he cares for his guests and his business. This place looks so clean, and pizza is always fresh. They will make you whatever you want with a smile on their face. Pizza looks like they actually care. Try it out. If you’ve been here before and had a bad Experience come try it again, you won’t be dissapointed.

This is one of the worst Cici’s I have ever been in was never ask if there was a pizza they could make for me. So I ask for the cheeseburger pizza and I thought the owners head was going to explode. When they brought it to the table we all looked at each other wondering what it was. Catalina dressing with sausage, piled high with lettuce and sprinkled cheddar cheese. YUCK!

Yes, yes, yes. I’m a fan of the ‘za as my profile says. I know people make fun of this place, but I think the pizza is actually really good! My favorite is the zesty pepperoni(ask for it if you’ve never gotten it and they’ll make it). Good salad bar and desserts too! For a $ 6 buffet it’s well worth it! What can I say, I’m a CiCi’s guy.

I have been several times. I’m not a big fan of buffets but this place has many pizzas offered. The buffalo chicken is my favorite and they made slices for me since they ran out so quickly. It must also be a favorite of others. They offer pasta, soup, salad and brownies or dessert pizza. Great variety of pizza. The owners and employees are helpful… always stocking up the buffet and helping you with your needs. The restrooms are clean. There is a game room for kids to play in and TVs on the walls. The price is right for families and kids. Definitely a good choice for pizza night out!

Staff was super friendly, and the pizza was good and inexpensive. The eating area was just so old and worn it made me uncomfortable eating there. Even if it was clean, it would never look clean. Torn cushions, beat up tables, etc. Had to take off 3 stars for this because if an eating establishment looks dirty, who’s going to eat there? Is this chain going out of business? I feel like I was seconds away from meeting Robert Irvine from Restaurant Impossible! I would only come back if they replaced all the beat up tables and booths. Until then, I will get my ZA from other restaurants.

Pretty mediocre food. The staff was friendly. If you are looking for a pizza buffet Id suggest Gatti Town as my #1 and the Pizza Hut as my # 2 depending on the location. The only issue with Pizza Hut is its limited timings. Both of those buffets are actually cheaper as well with better quality of food. Back to cicis… I tried the soup, salad, pizza, and dessert. The dessert was the best. Soup lacked flavor. Pizza was cold and could use salt. I’m sure I could had asked for them to make a fresh pizza but I didn’t do that. The salad bar area didn’t have good toppings. It almost seemed like just left over of the toppings they don’t use on the pizzas. I can see why this place was relatively empty around lunch time. Probably won’t come back since there are so many better options in this area.

I actually come here often, being a pizza fiend. An unlimited buffet of pizza is top notch in my book, anyway you look at it. CiCi’s does a great job of keeping the line stocked and fresh, and are always willing to make you a pizza on request(we like the spicy pepperoni). Service with a smile, happy families eating away, endless carbs for days… Can’t beat it for 7 bucks!

Sat down with fam to eat the pizza and suddenly a cockroach crawls across the table! This little bugger had no fear as it went straight for our food. Gross. Needless to say we walked right out and went straight to anthonys coal fired pizza. Never going back.

Even if it is clean it does not appear clean at all. This place needs an overhaul. The staff however was friendly.

Went back yesterday and I’m gonna bump this up to a 4. The staff is very friendly and genuinely seems to care about the customers. They are a little slow with clean-up, but they seem to be understaffed.

I’ve been to Cici’s in the past, including one in Vegas which was the best I’ve ever been too. Great selection like always but the staff was the best part. They constantly made us pizzas, no matter how crazy they were. I recommend ordering fresh pizzas with whatever toppings you want on them as soon as you walk in. Best when ordered your way ! If you are looking for high class pizza, this isn’t the place but you want lots of pizza for little price, this is it.

Buffet is kept consistently stocked. Staff are friendly and despite it being your«standard fast food type pizza“it’s actually good. For the price it can not be beat!

It’s a pizza buffet. Don’t go in here thinking you’re going to have something great. It’s your standard fast food type pizza. Not bad but no great either.
