| - For the past year or so I have been getting flyers for Gus's Pizza plastered on my door like bad graffiti, and while the specials looked good, I never had a need to order pizza often, usually one of my friends would order from Domino's. This past week however, my friend and I were hungry due to staying up for the second all nighter in a row, and decided we wanted pizza. Around 2am we called Gus's and ordered a white pizza with pepperoni, the cost on the menu stated it was about $16. After their fees for eating after midnight, paying with a credit card, delivery fee and tax they told me the total was 21 dollars and some change. It stung a little, but still was okay, after all, no where else was open. They told me it would be about 30 minutes, but I asked them to wait and bring it around 3, when we would have enough time for a break.
3:30 rolls around and after two phone calls to see what's up, the driver finally gets to our place, telling me that he couldn't get ahold of my cell even though Gus's called me about 5 minutes prior. The total bill when I got my pizza was $27.63! That is sure a lot different than 21 bucks! Angry, I called the manager and he stated that in addition to charging me 2 dollars for delivery, because I lived a block outside their delivery range, they tacked on another 5 dollars. He then proceeded to list off several fees that I couldn't keep track of, and would only give me 30% off my next order for the "forgetfulness" that his employees had for not telling me the true price. 30% off.. pfft, as if I would want to be bent over and reamed by their gouging again.
The pizza was cold, bland and the cheese had hardened into almost another crust, which was at least better tasting than the actual crust of the pizza. Now that I found other places that deliver late like Eddies Pizza Lounge, I will never look at this slum again.
