Have any GAFers had it yet? Impressions? I despised Dominoes, but occasionally their cheap cardboard was edible if nothing else was available. How is this new stuff?

also: bbq chicken pizza is amazing.

Had the new stuff...pretty good...cant remember last time I had the old stuff (it has been years) so I am not a good indicator on the change ;)

Yeah, I get it a lot up at college (around once a week) and the new pizza is much better. But I have heard it depends on the place too because my Dominoes does a good job at making the pizzas but other don't, so if you try it and it's bad, try a different Dominoes next time.

It's a LOT better than it used to be. Cheese actually tastes like cheese, sauce actually has flavor. Toppings are the same. Only thing they do to the crust is spray it with a garlic flavored Pam after it comes out. It's pretty good.

Of course, it used to be crap, so all that is relative. I think it's a viable cheap option now, whereas before it was the last resort.

When I tried this new pizza I actually preferred the old Dominos (for reference, I love cheap "shitty" pizza like Pizza Hut and Papa Johns)

I've always considered Domino's a step below Pizza Hut, and Papa John's.

So does this new recipe make it on par w/ the 2?

btw, I think Costco's pizza is still the best cheap option.

$10 for an 18 inch...and it tastes better than Domino's or Pizza Hut.

I love the shitty pizza on occasion too, which is why I'm wondering about this. I know it will be nowhere near the awesome taste of some local mom and pop place, but still

It tastes the exact same except that the crust is seasoned. I do consider it an improvement, but it still sucks.

I rarely eat fast food, but I tried one their new pizzas a couple weeks ago. The new crust alone made it feel like my daily fat intake was good for the next three days.

Oh c'mon. There is no way in hell frozen pizza is better. There are opinions and then there are factually incorrect statements and that would be an example of the latter. Now, I'm not saying Domino's is great or anything but even being on the very low end of delivered pizza it enjoys a position above that of the frozen variety.

Like I said earlier, get it if you don't like it, then you don't. I think it is better and I stated that it can depend on which Dominoes you get it at, so if you don't like it, wait a few weeks and try it from a different Dominoes, if you don't like it a second time, then you don't have to get it again.

So yes, it is better than the old recipe.

Tombstone and DiGiorno's are factually better than that slop.

I've had both. The only thing going for frozen pizza is convenience.

Wrong. Being frozen like that cannot lead to a better product in the end.
 
It's now slightly above average chain pizza. Which, puts it in the well below average pizza since almost everyone gets their pizza from a local place.

Dominoes is kinda like Denny's in that its not really a place you go, more a place you end up.

If you want decent pizza.

1. Phone pizza express
2. Order theQuattro Formaggi with chicken & musroom
3. Collect in less then 15 minute

BLOWS away any Domino's pizza.

I like digiorno but I can never finish the crust. It's the only pizza I can't finish completely when eating it whole.

I never really bought Domino's much but some friends ordered some recently. Tasted mediocre, the bread had garlic on it-the only noticeable difference to me. Still prefer papa johns when it comes to cheaper to go pizzas.

Mushrooms are disgusting.
 
It's good. They could work a bit more on the cheese IMO but the crust and sauce are miles above what it used to be....

"it's nasty"

"yuck, cardboard"

Maybe I'm a sucker for marketing, but the new Dominos is certainly better than frozen pizza. I mean, sure, it's now just not significantly worse than other national chain pizza. But that's a huge step up.

Before? I would say "No, thanks. I don't have to eat pizza simply because it's presented before me. This pizza is bad. You are offering me bad tasting food and I would like to not eat any, if that's okay."
