    Correct me if I’m wrong, but these are probably the most popular pizza brands out right now. Vote your favorite one.

    Never had Marco's but I've seen commercials for them.

    Dominos has gone way down hill in recent years. Last time I ordered, the pizza was half cooked

    Ceasars. Very cheap yet pretty good.

    I'd rather go to Mod Pizza and get custom made personal pizza. Tons of toppings on a pizza for one.

    I know only Domino's and Pizza Hut, but Domino's is best. They bought up Joey's Pizza and still have their pizzas in their assortment, which taste quite great. But my favorite Pizza delivery is Mundfein Pizzawerkstatt and Michelangelo in Bielefeld. But sadly, as I have moved, I cannot order from them anymore, as they don't have that in the new city I live in. A lot here is missing, I was living in a big city before and now here it's a little more rural. But that's what I wanted, I'm far more relaxed and having less to choose from also has it's benefits, as you don't order food regularly which can get quite expensive.

    There should be an "other" option.
    Dominos- tastes like cardboard.
    Papa Johns- their sauce is awful. Good breadsticks, though.
    Little Caesars- even worse cardboard than Dominos, but I do like the breadsticks.
    Pizza Hut is decent, but leftovers lose taste more than any other I've had. Leftover Pizza Hut tastes like "fresh" Little Caesars.
    Never had or heard of Marco's.

    I've only had marco's once, and while I liked it, I need to try it a bit more before judging

    As for the others.
    1) Domino's - of the chain pizzas Domino's is usually the one I go to, especially for specialty pizzas like BBQ Chicken. For some reason though the sauce in my local domino's tastes different than usual, like cheaper, which sucks because they're normally my favorite parts of the pizza
    2) Little Caeser's - They're probably the lowest quality of all the chains, but given that they're usually dirt cheap it's not something I'm too bothered by. Their breadsticks are bomb though
    3) Papa John's - Premium Prices for fast food quality pizza, bleh. I'll get some if they every have actual good deals from time to time though that's incredibly rare
    4) Pizza Hut - Leaves the smallest impression on me. The only one I don't go out of my way to order from. If I do is when they have better deals than Domino's, which is usually rare. Also the only one close by is the only one of the bunch I’ve had bad experiences from

    Wanna give a shout-out to Leonardi's/Winco Pizza though, they're awesome and I'd probably put it on par with Domino's
    Local places are better but since I'm not a pizza snob I'm perfectly content with getting pizza from the major chains

    All of these are based on memory with the places went to before. They could've changed since the few years I've been there, but that's how I'm voting.

    Papa Johns: The good one in my area closed ages ago. The new one was pretty good when it opened but the oizza started to get worse to the point I couldn't stand it.

    lil' Ceasars: Tasted like school cafeteria pizza when I went, and I never liked that growing up.

    Pizza hut: varies from pretty good to gawd awful depending on location. The good one sadly closed due to mismanagement last year....

    Dominos: Had once and got MASSIVE stomach problems from it so that hindered any opinions of the brand for me.

    Marcos: ...I never heard of it.... Don't even get commercials for it

    Overall ranking: Y U NO GUD PIZZEH?!?

    There is a local place called Sal's that's really good, though. My brother is addicted to their diablo pizza. I like their marsala pizza. There was a place WAAAAAYYYY out of the way that used to have these awesome Loaded potato pizza slices! miss those... Pasquales, I think the place was called? I dunno anymore...

    Firstly, and the most important comment I have to make on this: Pizza is not a topping delivery system. If the pizza requires a shedload of toppings to be considered good then it's a bad pizza.

    Generally speaking I tend to prefer local establishments. Non-chain places. Less mass produced and tends to be a better crust.

    Of the poll choices:
    Pizza Hut: My preferred of the poll options simply because of their pan pizza. Easily the best of the options. Suffers from a lot of variance though.
    Dominos: Would be my second choice, mainly because they're not terrible and some of their deals are great when you need cheap pizza in a hurry. They'd rate higher if they hadn't changed their Deep Dish pizza years ago and if they hadn't changed their breadsticks over to the current twists. Or if they still had the twistybread they used to have back in the 90s. I still curse their decision to get rid of that.
    Little Caesars: Last time I had it was years ago and it just wasn't good. It was like instead of making the pizza I ordered, they gave me one they had sitting around. Put me off going there again.
    Papa Johns: Been ever longer since I had anything from them. Main thing I remember is the sauce being too sweet.
    Marcos: Never tried it, only seen a few commercials as I don't believe there are any in my area.

    Little Caesar's is good, but there's a local place around here called Al's which is better.

    Little Caesars - go-to cheapo pizza, can't beat it for five bucks; cleans up nicely with additional seasonings; go there when I don't want to spend much money
    Pizza Hut - like their thin crust, mainly; occasional/rare treat
    Dominos and Papa Johns - don't care for them much; only go if I have really good coupons
    Marcos - only time I went there I ended up with... stomach trouble; haven't been back since

    Long story short, mostly when it comes to pizza I either go to Little Caesars because it's cheap, or one of the local (if more expensive) places if I want something good.

    Caesar's get my vote, but Dominos is good too. PJs tastes like wet cardboard with wallpaper paste on top.

    Gun to my head, I went with Domino's. But I'll take any mom & pop shop before going to the chain restaurants.

    God none of these....I unfortunately have had 4 of the 5 recently, havent had pizza hut in several years...most recently the shaq-a-licious from papa johns last night that is not even thin crust like they advertise. best way I can describe it is a thinner version of the original crust, think halfway between original and thin crust, it wasn't even sliced through all the way. All have had a decline in quality of ingredients, none of them have a pepperoni that doesn't taste like bland nothing, and they all barely put any sauce, so it tastes like cheese bread.

    If I have to pick one though....little caesars.though it used to be waaay better than now

    Papa johns used to have a "robust" pizza sauce i liked that had a bit of a heat kick and wasn't that sweet flavor, but they got rid of it.

    Of those...I’m not sure.

    Papa Johns is ok, but tends to be very greasy.
    I haven’t had Domino’s in a long time so I can’t really judge it.
    My parents would always get us Pizza Hut when I was growing up so I’m still a little sick of it.
    I like Little Caesar’s, especially for the price. Pretty good for $5-6.
    I might have had Marco‘s once but it was not memorable.

    We’ve recently discovered Chicago’s Pizza and it’s really good. Here in the Midwest there’s a local chain called Pizza King, which is my wife’s favorite.

    Haha... well, there should really be an "other" option on there, because I think you'll find that most of us would probably rather go to our local mom and pop joints if we had the chance. I know I do. Of the choices though I chose Marco's since they actually have the closest thing that resembles a well-made pizza for a chain establishment.

    • Papa John's: Decent, but not great. At least the slices are nice and big and you can fold them.
    • Domino's: The bread is tasteless and they don't use enough sauce.
    • Pizza Hut: Too much bread, not enough of anything else... the sauce seems to be absorbed by the bread most of the time.
    • Lil Ceasar's: I'll never understand how this shit hole remains in business. The pizza is tasteless cardboard. Their toppings are the grossest third rate ingredients. The pizza is always dehydrated because of its "hot and ready" bullshit. It's the nastiest garbage you'll ever buy when it comes to pizza, but for some reason, people still think it's good. I can only assume that people who think Ceasar's has good pizza have never actually had a good well-made pizza and they like Ceasar's because it's cheap as fuck. Well, guys... sometimes when you pay dumpster bin prices you get the trash and that's what Lil Ceasar's is.
    • Marcos: Like I said; of the majority of chain pizza places it tastes the closest to something that resembles real pizza and not some bean counter's idea of what pizza should be. That said for a couple of bucks more I can go to one of four local mom and pop places and not only get great pizza but also support the local economy.
    Honestly, if you couldn't tell... I hate Lil Ceasar's pizza. About the only pizza place, I hate more is CiCi's (which for those that don't have it it's an 'all you can eat' buffet pizza chain). For those of you that like it, you must enjoy cardboard.

    Donato's should be up there. I'd pick that in a heartbeat. Not sure how widespread of a chain they are, though. Of the one's listed, I'd probably pick Little Caesar's. They make a $5 pizza that tastes like a $7 pizza. Lol. It isn't bad, IMO. Makes a fine turd. I used to really like Pizza Hut...like 20 years ago...but they lost something along the way...like the ability to make decent pizza or something. Domino's is too hit-and-miss. I've never liked Papa John's sauce. Ever.

    The one from my oven.

    But to be serious I like pizza hut and Papa John's. I think I prefer Papa John's between the two of them.

    Lil Ceasars is meh I always tell them to cook the pizza well done with extra sauce.

    Never had the other two before but I have heard that Dominos taste like cardboard a lot
