So yeah, I'm reviewing a chain. I wanted to try the "new and improved" Domino's Pizza. Everything those commercials said about their old pizza was true-- cardboard crust, ketchup sauce, bad toppings. So, is the new Domino's better than the old?
Yes, but that's not saying much-- it moves up from negative stars to 1, perhaps1.5 stars. The cheese and toppings are much improved. The cheese abundant and tasty and the mushrooms were thickly sliced whole brown mushrooms. Really good. The sauce was a bit salty and bland-- not horrible, but nothing to write home about.
They still have a problem with the crust. The crust on both mediums we ordered was mushy and underdone. While it wasn't as blatantly offensive as old Domino's crust, it still had a lingering aftertaste like those Bisquick pancakes mom used to try to feed us in the 1970s. Add to that an abundant dusting of garlic salt and you've got a taste reminiscent of your first boyfriend's attempt to make you an "Italian" dinner with garlic bread. I had no idea they even made garlic salt any more. It hasn't improved.
So, the pizza has improved, but not enough for me to ever eat it again.
