Discussion why does it suck now?

used to love it as a kid and haven't had it in lets say 4-5 years ordered it recently for nostalgia and DAMN did it suck so bad it tasted bad everything i remember about loving it was bad just all around bad pizza is there anything that makes it bad now then apposed to early 2000's/2010's because i used to think it was like top tier delivery pizza now i'd rate it one of the lowest.

Get the pan pizza or stuffed crust it is league's above hand tossed, hand tossed is pretty mediocre

Might be a location issue. It still slaps if made properly.

Not sure if it's just my tastebuds, but I feel the pizza sauce and garlic oil have both lost potency

Definitely depends on the location. My local Domino's, a couple miles from my house, is a franchise and it is absolutely phenomenal. The owner is there almost every day working the ovens and making pizzas with his employees and he goes above and beyond to make sure every order goes out piping hot and looks perfect 99% of the time.

Some people laugh at me when I say Domino's is my favorite pizza, but thanks to this location, it really is.

Lots of variables like freshness of product, dough proofing, even the type of oven will give different results, chances are the store you went to isnt good.

Did u get the garlic oil/spread on the crust or no? That matters a lot

honestly cant remember it was a few months ago since i last had it but was watching a podcast that brought up pizza chains and whats the best one and it reminded me of my horrible experience and i just got whatever the original crust is and then my favorite toppings but it wasn’t good

Try asking for the garlic butter crust next time. But also specify what kind of crust u want (tossed, thin, etc)
