I hope they begin delivering. When we're interested in having pizza, we currently have a choice of at least 10 different pizza places that will deliver to us, and that gives us little incentive for wanting to drive to Colony Plaza for a pickup.

The two worst area pizzas are CiCi's and Hungry Howie's. Both are flavorless.

The owner may be the nicest guy in the world and he may make excellent brownies and sticky buns but the pizza is TERRIBLE.

Mallory Hill CC has the best pizza in The Villages, in my opinion.

What we discovered about CiCi's was that the pizza ordered for take out was much better than the pizza served on the "line". The take out ones were more flavorful, had more toppings, and were good.

LOL, funny thing is, I didn't eat any pizza. Went there for the speed of putting together a great salad and there weren't any of those mayonnaise based salads to tempt me. I also brought my own grilled chicken and low fat salad dressing and some sides like dried cranberries.

Don't get me wrong, I also worked out 3 times a week with a personal trainer at MVP (Wellness Center) club and danced every night.

It wasn't easy and with my nightlife schedule it was hard to find places to eat where I could put together my own low-fat salad.

So I wish him great success.

Stopped in today and spoke to a manager (not owner). It's the same stuff, just not under the franchise.

Definately post if things change and the pizza becomes edible. I might give it a try again. As for cici's , the pizza was forgettable.

hope that they completely revamp the menu and the quality of their food. otherwise it is just the same crap. and believe me, no self-respecting pizza afficionado would ever eat at cici's.

I have to admit that I LOVE the Mac and Cheese Pizza along with the sticky buns.

No they will honor the VIP free cards if it is filled for a short time. If they are not filled he will give you a new card that says Village Pizza

I ate there today and they transferred my frequent dining punch card to a new card. The food was similar to before, but better. They made me a Rustic Pizza when I asked for it, they now call it "Thin Crust". The pasta bar now has real marinara sauce, great improvement. I always spoon some on my pizza, because I like it juicy and messy. Also same employees as before.
