Hungry Howie's Pizza - Miramar (Wings, Subs, Salads, Pasta)

A Heartbreaking Breakup with Hungry Howie’s – A Tragic Tale of Customer Service Gone Wrong

Ah, Hungry Howie’s of Miramar, how you’ve let me down. Our once-flourishing love story has come to a tragic end on none other than Valentine’s Day. But let me tell you why.

I called in, expecting the usual warm welcome of a pizza establishment eager to take my money in exchange for cheesy goodness. Instead, I got an experience that felt like I accidentally dialed someone’s abuela’s house. No introduction, no professionalism—just a monotone, “What you need?” As if I had called to borrow a cup of sugar rather than order food.

Now, I’m a patient person, but when I, the paying customer, had to prove my worth by speaking Spanish just so they could do their job? That’s where things took a turn. I asked for a manager, hoping for salvation, but instead, I was greeted with a confident, “What chu need?” Oh, I don’t know… maybe an ounce of customer service? Maybe a manager who actually exists instead of what felt like a prison riot running the establishment?

Look, I order from you A LOT. We had a thing. A connection. But this? This was the final straw. Slow, unprofessional, unbothered—like I was inconveniencing them by wanting to pay for food. And let’s be honest, at this level of service, who’s to say there won’t be a little extra topping I didn’t order?

So, Hungry Howie’s of Miramar, I bid you farewell. I’d rather burn an extra gallon of gas than feel like I have to beg for a pizza while someone treats me like I’m asking for a personal favor. And to top it all off, Cheez-It crust, it Royally sucks.

Damn, Hungry Howie’s. I never thought it’d end this way, but you forced my hand. We’re done. You’re toxic. Pitiful. Simply pitiful. 💔
Why Didn’t I Order? Because I Value My Sanity.

Oh, trust me, I wanted to order. I had my heart set on a delicious, cheesy, grease-soaked masterpiece. But when your staff answers the phone like I accidentally called someone’s living room and treats me like I need to qualify to place an order? Yeah, no thanks.

I don’t need to take an impromptu Spanish exam just to get a pizza. I don’t need to beg or decode cryptic customer service to give you my money. And I definitely don’t need to feel like I’m inconveniencing the very people whose job it is to… you know… take orders.

So why didn’t I order? Because when you start off treating a paying customer like an afterthought, I can only imagine what happens to my food behind the scenes. I’d rather keep my dignity (and my appetite) intact than roll the dice on whether my order even gets made—or worse, gets made with a side of spite.

So yeah, I took my business elsewhere. And I took my peace of mind with me. 🍕💨

To start, I'm writing this review while trying to recover from food poisoning. We selected this place because of convenience and decent reviews, boy was I wrong. This highly disappointing experience started when my wife and I mistakingly entered the facility through the unlocked kitchen door, and were greeted by one of the the most aloof restaurant workers I've ever encountered. Upon entering we were met with this employee who rather than at the VERY least says 'hi this is actually the kitchen you need to go to the other doorway', we instead get a bizarre period of just staring at each other because having NEVER been to this place we have no idea where the front counter and entrance was! The awkward communication continued throughout us ordering our food in which my questions about the menu seemed to bother and I guess trigger this person. The nail in the coffin was the incredible upset stomach I got just 10 minutes after eating the pizza and wings (still feeling with it a day later). This has been so disturbing that moving forward I will second guess ever stopping at a random place in an unknown area. I would not recommend.

A pleasant surprise. Our expectations weren't set very high. We don't have these where we live but always hear about them so we decided to try it. The first location we went to was closed three hours early so we ended up at this one. The staff was GREAT, informative and personable. The food was far better than comparable pizza chains and the prices were very fair. The only downside was the organization of the dining area. It was pretty awkward with most of the tables pushed into the corner and very little room for anyone to navigate to their seat without squishing up against the wall or between chairs. Maybe just get your pizza to go but definitely get your pizza.

Oh, and they didnt have the drink i ordered. Hungry howie need to do better.

Typically buy the 3 large one topping special for $26 and leaves my big family filled with lots of children satisfied. There was only one incident where my food was burnt but the manager made it right by keeping his promise to remake it the next visit. Since then Carlos always makes our pizzas extra special. The flavor is there and the cheese melts like the advertisement.

Parking: Parking lot is tight and pitch black at night. Thankfully, I haven’t fallen and the fault doesn’t belong to Hungry Howie’s however they seriously need to make a formal complaint to the owners of the lot before someone gets hurt.

If I could give zero stars I would. Manager would not give refund or replacement for very obviously burned food. Don’t risk your money.
