I am so disappointed in the new management changing their entire pizza to something that tastes like Marcos. The crust and ingredients used to be the very best. The crust is completely different and the ingredients are not proportioned well. Sad! I have enjoyed PJ Pizza for many years and will now have find somewhere else. The cheese totally sucks!. No the whole pizza totally sucks!

Nice cozy atmosphere, including the outdoor seating. Food was pretty good, not the best in my opinion but tasty. Appreciated they had a fruity drink even though it was mostly beer. Especially enjoyed the Thursday trivia night.

Our server was nice but we will not be returning. The restaurant is disgusting. With an open kitchen where your customers can see the ovens and prep line, you would think it would be clean and sparkly-not here. There were dirty tables when we walked in and those same tables were dirty when we left. The manager and other staff were opening talking and cursing about other customers. It seems management or the owners genuinely don't care about this location.

Please note that their large pizzas are very big. The pizza was decent. Your average run of the mill pizza. Nothing to write home about. The service was good.

About 2 weeks ago I placed an order and some ingredients were missing.I placed the order through Augusta to Go who has always been on time, kind and always in good cheer.I Had to call Pizza Joint for the missing items and was informed I could get a credit once I get in but the extra monies I spent could not be refunded.Low and behold I try them again tonight and the pizza was greasy, salty, the crust was hard and guess what missing items.That's twice now it will not be a third time...

This place has a nice atmosphere. We sat at the bar. Bartender was friendly. We wanted the Detroit style pizza, but the bartender said they weren't making them that day. So, we had a regular pizza. It was very good. They also sell pizza by the slice, which is a nice option too. This was our 2nd time there and both times the women's restroom was not clean at all. That is about my only complaint.

I ordered a Greek salad and the waitress didn't tell me they were out of Feta cheese, and they put extra shaved parmesan in place of it. I don't she thought I would notice. It was very disappointing and I sent it back. Our sons enjoyed their pizzas but my husband and I decided to try something different. Big mistake. The Detroit pizza didn't have much meat. We mostly tasted the cheese and bell peppers. We won't ever order it again if we go back. Lesson learned.

Nice place to sit out side and vibe. Staff was friendly and the draft was perfect. Slice was enough to and served hot.

To be clear, this is reflective of the broad street location. Disappointing experience. Placed an online order around 7:30. Order confirmation said it would be almost an hour before food was ready (8:27, also would have been nice to have wait times displayed prior to ordering). Arrive at the location to find out they had never received a notification that my order came in. At that point it was going to be 2 hours until we could get food. Luckily the order was able to be cancelled without any issue and money refunded.

Carnivore pizza gave party of 15+ food poisoning after excessively long wait to receive food. Also, the crust was very tough for all pizzas and my party was shoved in the back with annoyingly cumbersome hanging light not only blaring right in your face (with very bright bulbs) but also low enough to consistently hit your head on while getting up. I tried to reserve a table for my party 24 hrs in advance but upon arrival I had to wave down someone to assist me (after standing at the entrance for at least 4-5 min) only to find that they “thought we were scheduled for 5:30” when I called earlier that day to confirm. One last thing, which I can’t completely pin on the restaurant, but there was a homeless man blocking the entrance who harassed every single person who walked in for money (one member of party was asked to give $200 and another one was harassed when reaching for $5 bill when instead the man wanted the $20 bill he saw). I understand that it isn’t completely in the hands of the restaurant but after 10 min of waiting for my party to arrive and watching it happen I was shocked that it was completely ignored. Collectively it was a very poor first impression of the place and I hope it was just a bad night for them
