So my verdict is PAPA JOHNS over dominos unless you want to permanently ruin chicken wings for someone that is, in which case get them 40pcs of unsauced wings and force them to eat it all. Sure they are cheaper than Papa John's, but if you add the various deals (like Monday Mania and Web Wednesday) and the points (worth about $3 per if you translate between 25 pts and a 3 topping large pizza), the difference in price is very little and VERY worth it. So I realize that one trial may not be best to go by but Dominos chose a bad day to screw up because I can pretty safely say that I won't be trying them again. The meat was soft and soggy (how does that even happen?) and there was hardly any chicken taste. After an 8pc of the Dominos wings (I finished it because I hate wasting food) I had to rinse my mouth with sweet ice tea and order 30pcs of PJ wings to reconvince myself that chicken wings were edible. By comparison I had always liked the Papa John wings (sauceless). Though the taste was acceptable the texture was absolutely horrifying. The real deal breaker was the chicken wings. I would say they gave you enough chicken and that the sauce is not too greasy, but overall it wasn't anything to cry with joy over. It just didn't taste all that great and the bacon was hardly noticeable though the chicken and cheese were nice. For some reason it was more sour than I thought it would be even given the fact that Ranch turns sour when heated. The pizza was actually good though my standards aren't particularly high. Recently I ordered a 2 topping pizza, chicken bacon ranch sub, sauceless wings, and dish chicken alfredo pasta from Dominos all in one go so that I could have a comprehensive evaluation. It's slightly more expensive but they have nice offers online and taste much better than either Dominos or Pizza Hut. This was one of the threads I consulted before my Dominos taste test, and I'm sorry to say that I was misled. Needs a heavier hand with the cheese," noted one taster. "Very processed look and flavorless dough, tastes very pre-fab," stated one judge.Īlthough the majority of the judges felt this one looked the best in the box, they were disappointed by the very sweet sauce, lack of cheesiness, and dry mouth feel. Despite the fact that it was made while we waited (there were no "Hot-n-Ready" pizzas prepared), most judges felt it was very similar to frozen pizza. While the judges enjoyed the thin crust and flavorful "zesty" sauce of this pizza, it ultimately lost points for lack of freshness. "The crust is quite puffy and fluffy, not for a crisp crust lover." However, the abundance of gooey cheese and a healthy helping of pepperoni helped make up for some of this pie's shortcomings. Overly sweet sauce and a thick, doughy crust put this pizza out of favor with many of the tasters. Some felt it could use a little more cheese, but the quality of the crust is what won over the tasters, "The crispy crust is a nice touch, it has a little chewiness like real pizza," said one judge. They liked the balance of softness and crispiness in the crust, the slightly sweet sauce, and the savory spice of the pepperoni. This was by far Epi editors' preferred pizza of the bunch.
