I can remember when Pizza Hut had only walk in stores with table service. Today only some stores have table service. Today many are just carry out and delivery stores. I still like the table service stores. Pizza Hut Sun City Center is such a store. When we arrived, we were told to take a table anywhere so we did. The store wasn't busy. I think only 1 table was in use. We saw 1 waitress. She took our drink order and said she be back for the rest of the order. She came back with the drink order. The disappeared again. She brought out the other table pizza order. I was think maybe we pay for the drinks and leave, but my wife said no, we came for pizza and we are going to eat pizza. Finally she took our order disappeared again. I began to this she was maybe the waitress, cook, and bottle washer! Finally we did see someone else come out of the kitchen and a pizza driver came back. Someone came in to order take out, and another couple came in for table service. The driver said he would handle the take out order and let the waitress handle the table. Finally our pizza arrived. The pizza was hot. The taste OK, not great. Too much dough. To be honest, there are other pizza places I like better. We will think twice before we return.

I was really surprised to get a cheesesteak almost as good as a Philly steak. They use Amoroso's bread and, while not everyone in Philly uses this bread...it was really better than any other I have had in Florida. The place is small and dark and not a place you want to eat in, takeout is the answer. Hope to go back for their pizza.

This place is a fail safe for me! If I'm running late and don't have time to make dinner and need something quick. I've never had a bad pizza here. There are so many combination of ingredients and the staff is friendly.

1st, let me say that every other time we have ordered here, the pie has been GREAT.This review is based 90% on poor service and attitude, and only 10% for the poor pie we received this time. So, u ordered a pie at 4:46 PM, for pick up. I was told it would be ready in 45 minutes. So, never being late for anything, I arrive at 5:15, 11 minutes early to pick it up. So, I walk in and there is a line, so I wait. 7 minutes later I am waited ok n, I pay and the gentleman walks to the oven and gets my order from on top!This means that my pie was WAYEARLY, much less than 45 minutes, and had the. Sat on top of the oven for an additional 7 minutes. I did not think much of this at the moment, drove the 2.1 miles to my home, opened it up to eat and it was absolutely nasty! It was not fresh, like warm at best, and simply gross. I called to let them know and request a new pie be made, and this is where the problem truly starts. The lady answered the phone, I explain the situation and state that the pie is not fresh, and her response was " It has to be fresh, they are all made fresh". I reiterate that the pie wa just picked up and is not fresh, she continues to explain that it would be impossible to not be fresh. This goes back and fort for 9 minutes, and I finally state that I don't care what you think....the pue IS NOT FRESH AND I WANT A NEW ONE MADE.She states that they are busy and do not have time for this. I reiterate that I want a new pie and she says fine, 15 minutes.I drive back up, the owner opens it, looks at it and says this pie was not made yesterday. I say, I never said it was, I simply said that it is not fresh. He mumbles and walks away, continuing to mumble.Keep in mind that NEVER, NOT ONCE did they apologize! They are so narsisistic that they actually believe that every pie, lasagna or hoagie they make is always 100% perfect!!!So a few minutes later he opens the oven, slides the pie out, placed it in the box, cut it and hands it to me. I then said, you are no longer in the Bronx and you can not treat your customers this way, you should be ashamed. Not a peep back, just an "I don't care" shrug of the shoulders...Soooooo, they have now lost a steady, long time customer over a $17.00 pie!!!Oh, and lastly....their large is only a 16", NOT the traditional 18" NY pie. There are two other GREAT NY style pies in Apollo Beach, I suggest you spend your $$$ there.

First time in, and we were not disappointed. A quirky place that could use an update, but then it would loose its atmosphere! Waitstaff was excellent and pleasant to deal with. Food was served hot and tasty. The yeast rolls are really good and easy to fill up on. We all had Italian dishes and no one had any complaints. Portions were large enough that we all had go boxes when we left. We hit it on a Thursday night and they have a very good Elvis impersonator who does an excellent job. The place can really get jumping. Will definitely be back to try other entrees.

I went online to place my order and the first thing I saw was the free brownie offer for online orders over $15. I threw 2 large pizzas and a large howie bread in my card in order to qualify for the offer. Unfortunately when I entered the coupon code at checkout the coupon code was not working for me. I received an error message. I tried again, still nothing. I called the store and their response was - there's nothing that we can do for you, we have received several calls about this, all we do is fulfill the online orders, we have nothing to do with coupon codes and can do nothing about your issue. They really did not care about the issue that I was having and were not interested in helping me resolve it. I was really disappointed.

I have ordered pizza from other places near Marco's and have not been very happy. We know Marco's from the past and decided to try it. We ordered online which was simple and picked it up. Very easy process! We ordered the Large Meat pizza. It was wonderful. The flavor was perfect and we especially liked the crust! Goodbye other places, hello Marco's!!!!

3. Papa John's Pizza
Add your favorite toppings to your choice of crust: hand-tossed original, pan, or thin. Order online or by phone. Papa John's. Better Ingredients. Better Pizza.
Reviewed By James K
It's definitely above average but not great. Okay very good for Florida pizza. It can't compare to Detroit or Chicago. A little more sauce would be nice, but I guess you can order it that way. Do it. The place is clean,personnel friendly and service was fast. I can't rave about it, but I can't complain about it either.. At least for now, my "go to" place when in the Apollo Beach/Ruskin area.

My spouse had eaten pizza from South Shore over 2 yrs ago. We had not ordered pizza for home delivery till this winter. Pizza is very good. There is a choice of thin or thick crust. Pizza can be ordered on line. Delivery is no issues. Neighbors are impressed with the service and pizza also. Anxious to try other items on the menu.

I really enjoy the Grandma's Pizza (just the right amount of fresh garlic and basil), salad with Creamy Italian dressing and the garlic bread. The boli's are great too. The food is always fresh and hot. I order out a couple times of month and always enjoy.
