But it came to Calgary and wasn't received very well. Then some Ontario folk that tasted it here said they must have changed when opening up here, as it wasn't nearly as good.

Full disclosure I haven't tried it myself yet.

As for Pizza Pizza, I also thought it was owned by Little Ceasers as the colours and branding are very similar. Just found out in this thread it's actually Pizza 73.

Hot take, most of the pizza chains are good but people like to complain about them to seem above it all

When I went to New York City a few years ago, I discovered this place called "Sbarro."

Little Caesars's slogan is "Pizza Pizza" and they can't use it in Canada because of the chain.

Well I'll tell you what Mr. Southside403...I visited my mom in the ol' 'hood recently and we got some good old fashioned Gondola Pizza and it...was...awful.

How that place is still in business defies belief.

Its gotta be a money-laundering front or something. Nobody can sell Pizza that bad for ~30 years. It should simply be impossible.

Your first bite should be your last. It is almost unfathomably bad.

It's fine, I don't hate it but I don't love it. Only ever went when I'd be at work and it's the only place open

Of all the random bumps of ancient dead threads started by Bertuzzied, this one is not nearly as good as E-NG.

I like most of their pizzas, but their claim-to-fame beef and chicken donair pizzas are too saucy for my tastes.

This was your response to thoughts on Seniores?

I'm in Winnipeg and we have Pizza Pizza. It's definitely not the same as Pizza 73. I miss that stuff. Not the most compelling pizza but I do miss it. Thankfully, we live 300 meters from Wall St. Slice. Best pizza I've ever had in Winnipeg or anywhere else.

Pizza 73 is trash. Its like eating cardboard. Easily at the bottom of the rung of all the fast food pizza chains. Papa Johns at the top.

Papa John's is great if your favorite pizza toppings are bread and grease

I can seemingly recall Gondola Pizza being around since, at least, the late 60's in Winnipeg.
