Mountain Mike's Pizza

This place ain’t what it used to be, not even close. Ever since the new owners took over, it’s been nothing but downhill. The booths are ripped up, the carpet looks like it’s been there since the ‘90s and is literally falling apart, and the roof straight up looks dangerous, like it’s one bad storm away from caving in. It’s not just ugly, it’s unsafe — and what really stings is you can tell the owners just don’t care. No pride, no effort, no presence.

My family and I have been coming here since 2012, right when we first moved to Ceres. This was one of those spots we’d hit all the time. Birthdays, casual family dinners, catching up with friends — we got a lot of memories tied to this place. And back then, under Steve? It felt alive. Steve wasn’t just some owner hiding in the back counting money. He was around, he’d greet people, check in, and you could feel he actually cared about keeping things up. He kept the place clean, safe, and welcoming. The little things mattered to him — and because of that, people respected him and supported his business.

Now it’s the complete opposite. The new ownership has basically let everything slide. You don’t see them, you don’t hear from them, you don’t feel like anyone’s paying attention. And the condition of the place proves it. The sharp difference between when Steve ran things and now is unreal. He set a standard, and the current owners tossed it in the trash.

It honestly hurts to see how far this place has fallen. For over a decade, my family’s been loyal customers here. This used to be somewhere we were proud to bring people, now it’s almost embarrassing. If the owners don’t wake up and start showing they care, they’re gonna lose the trust and support of the same community that Steve worked so hard to build and keep together. And once that’s gone, it’s real hard to get it back.

very pricey 43$ for a mideim and a soda crazy

Would pit zero if I could. Especially after reading Montay's post. Wish I would have read sooner, but it's Mountain Mikes, right? I shouldn't have to. Oooooo, but you should for this location! Really wanted some pizza tonight. Its only 11:10 as I post this. But they are closed. How hard is it to put your correct hours up?

So very good but so very expensive. Especially if you have a big family that includes 2 teenage boys. So we not our go to but our once in a while. Quality is far superior. So yummy

Review Title: Disappointing Experience at Modesto, CA Location
Rating: 1 Star
I visited the Mountain Mike's Pizza in Modesto, CA 95351 on April 29, 2025, at around 6:48 PM (Transaction No. 158539013), and had a very disappointing experience. My order was delayed by nearly 27 minutes, and the staff was unhelpful when I tried to address the issue. One employee, Caitlyn, was particularly unprofessional, spending time with her boyfriend and engaging in inappropriate behavior in the store instead of assisting customers. This was highly unacceptable and ruined the experience. I hope the management addresses these issues to improve service in the future.

The pizza was great and was ready relatively fast.

Fantastic

I don’t get why people come in with bad attitudes and still expect five-star service. This big guy with his family in the booth right behind mine through a fit because his pizza wasn’t “well done enough.” but he was complaining like it cost him extra. He ended up getting a fresh pizza, and was still being rude to the person who brought it out to him and he still ate the original pizza too!! People like that are just ghetto and give this place a bad reputation. The place also needs some updates. The new TVs are nice, but the tables look tacky, and the booths are falling apart. The lack of good arcade games that actually work and the rude people who come to dine in or even pick up here make eating here, especially on weekends, less enjoyable.

The food is solid, and the register people are great, but the dining area and some of the customers sure bring this place down. I recommend doing take out and make sure to tip those kiddos a few extra buck

Order a large combo and a pepperoni pizza which i have was very good. I requested the pizzas well done and they were perfect and had lots of flavor. I would recommend this pizza business.

To the crew on Sunday afternoon, great job and thank you. We showed up after our soccer game with about 30 people and another party from a baseball team showed up few minutes later, and they handle it pretty well, very polite and they try to makes pizzas as fast as they could, we had a good time, thank you

This place is absolute trash if you want to sit down and eat the employees were more focused on cleaning for close than taking care of customers, sat in the store and watched my pizza that was supposed to be dine in sit at the edge of the oven getting cold and the employees just walking by with no cares like it didn’t exist. They boxed it and practically shoved us out of the door. Won’t be back. Go to round table down the street they have better service

service wasn’t that great, we were the only ones there when we first walked in, we order a medium pizza and wings well done. we watch every employee walk past our food when it was out of the oven and they all ignored it. our wings are not well done, they’re barely warm. we asked for dine in and they gave us our food in boxes.

I called and asked for light sauce and the super intelligent manager said he would have to charge me money to do light sauce. How do you charge money to a customer that’s asking for less of your product that is just plain stupid. Maybe mountain Mike’s needs to reconsider their management team there and get somebody in management that actually has a brain.
