| - John's Incredible Pizza Co. is almost a unique place. I can best describe it as Chuck E. Cheese's meets Cici's Pizza. Though John's takes the best ideas of each and improves upon them.
The Chuck E. Cheese aspect is in the arcade section in the back of John's. There are standard arcade games like the type that you shoot aliens or fly hover cars around a race track. There are further arcade game still. The type that give you tickets for your winnings. But these are all updated games new(ish) to the 21st century. I believe I saw such current obsessions like Angry Birds. If it is not enough to have built upon the gaming aspect of Chuck E. Cheese, John's has added rides like bumper cars and some sort of dizzying spin ride. They also have a miniature bowling alley and a half hole (9 hole) black light mini golf course. Taking a page from Dave and Buster's, John's has token cards for all their games and attractions rather than physical coinage. There is a lot going on here. It would have been more entertaining if all the various games were functional. Many weren't which was disappointing. It was also kind of hot in there given all the people running around and all the arcade games bleeding the local power grid dry.
The Cici's Pizza idea of a pizza buffet is amplified here. The salad bar has options to choose from both in full salad fixings and dressings. It is a standard buffet salad bar but a noticeable and appreciated improvement over Cici's. Some with the pizza. There are more varieties and better quality pizzas at John's. I wasn't so sure about it going in but I was impressed. It isn't the best pizza I've had but also far from the worst. The food doesn't end here either. There are several pasta selections. All pasta is undressed allowing for you the customer to customize your meal by combining one of the many pastas with one of the many sauces. If Italian food isn't your first choice, there is also fried chicken, mashed potatoes and a few different soups to try. For dessert, if the crowd has not totally decimated the selection, there is a peaches and cream dessert, fresh baked chocolate chips cookies, cinnamon rolls, and my personal favorite, fresh fried doughnuts which you can watch them make. Not a bad selection.
There are many different themed rooms for you and your party to be seated in. My group was in the Kaleidoscope room towards the front. There is a log cabin theme room, a Disney room and some private party rooms. Probably more that I didn't get to see.
If you chose to come to John's, be prepared to park a ways away. And be prepared for a crowd. This is at the Boulevard Mall and people come in droves. You'll see families, parents and kids, running wild between the dining rooms, the buffet and the arcade. It is a zoo akin to an amusement park. It can be pretty fun especially for kids. For a guy like me who would rather not be around kids, its a little too much to handle. I was only there for a nephew's birthday. I don't think I will make a habit of going but only because it is not a place for me. For families, you can get some good hours of entertainment and some good food for a fair price.
