Wow just happened to see this place yesterday... Didn't think anything of it... And now I stumble upon this post on here....

Sounds like it's fun for the "kids" or people looking to eat for cheap.... 1% chance I will ever enter this place though...

Yup I was excited about this place when it first opened so I took a trip over there one afternoon on a weekday with my brother. I was for the most part disappointed.

For starters...it is not a $5 buffet as I kept seeing advertised on TV but don't anymore. It's $6.49 for the buffet and then $1.49 for unlimited drinks. Ok so $8 and change for a full meal. I wasn't so miffed by this.

Out of all the pizza they had there I wasn't impressed with well really any of them. The pizza served there makes the $1 personal frozen Celeste Pizzas taste gourmet. The breadsticks are good and so are the desserts. Other than that I'm pretty sure the pizza is mostly made with the cheapest ingredients available to throw together a pizza. Probably the mac and cheese pizza was one of the more favorable pizzas I had there but my brother and I who often indulge in junk food places like this were not the least bit impressed. Not to mention during lunch there was no shortage of rambunctious HS kids around.

This was a one and done place for me. If Pizza Hut still had its pizza buffet around, it would beat CiCi's HANDS DOWN in every aspect.

To me this is like Old Country Buffet, it doesn't matter that the food tastes like crap, only that there is unlimited quantities of it.

Here in OC, the trend isn't unlimited pizza, it's who can eat the BIGGEST pizza. Last year 3 Brothers opened with their claim of the biggest pie on the boards. Not to be outdone, this year "The Big Slice" is opening, with a 3 foot diameter pie! It's the new American reality show, "Who can get the fattest the fastest, and for the least amount of money?"

I tried Cici's one time. I took one bite out of a slice and then the rest went into the trash can. I just made myself a small salad and will never return.

Cici's pizza needs to be put on the show called "Fear Factor" and forced into peoples mouths. Yes, it was this bad!

Cici's Pizza is horrible, they opened one of these horrible places close to me in Cherry Hill. With so much great pizza throughout New Jersey I would not subject myself to eating Cici's.
