Poor Michaels pizza was an iconic pizza place attached to Michael’s restaurant. Located at 4044 Urbandale Ave. They did carry out only and they always have a fresh slice for the driver to eat on their way home. Their pizza was absolutely perfect every time.
The owners decided to retire, and actually sold their recipe to a new restaurant opening up around the corner as “Michaels”. We have tried the pizza 3 times over the years. The first time we figured they hadn’t gotten it down right. Several months later the same result. So it’s been years. We decided to try it last Saturday night. The four of us arrived around 6pm. The place was empty and the employees were in the back so we weren’t sure it was open. One pick up order came in the entire time we were there.They still do the driver slice.
The service was fine, but the pizza was not. It managed to be both burnt and uncooked at the same time. The sausage looked gray and the cheese was sparse. It looked nothing like the photos I saw posted here. The parmesan cheese on the table had mold in it. We brought this to the attention of our server who was a nice young kid and brought us a fresh shaker, but the “manager” never appeared.
When the server brought the bill, and asked about the food, my husband had to comment that it was probably the worst pizza he had ever had. Our friends silently gave their opinion by not eating more than one slice.
I don’t know what happened to Poor Michaels recipe. but I wish they would resurrect it. Beaverdale is a great area and they need some really good pizza.

Based on takeout order(s). Have ordered Michael’s twice and both times have been left wanting more. Their large size is more like a medium and the ingredient quality just seems lacking. The sausage tonight tasted off, as well as the coloring. With a lot of options nearby, I won’t be running back to Michael’s.

Ordered several dish’s to go. 2 pizza’s and 2 appetizers.
1. Supreme pizza add bacon no black olives. It had no sausage and no mushroom on it like it said it comes with.
2. Macaroni and cheese pizza. If you want a pasta pizza go for it.
3. Potato skins. Well I’ve never seen a place use baby potatoes as potato skins but they did it.
4 garlic cheese bread was the best part of the dinner.
So all in all bang for the buck go some place else. What the menu says. Go some place else.
I hate to say it about a restaurant that has been around for so long. I won’t be ordering from this place again

We started going to Michael’s during the pandemic, and made it a weekly pick up. I love their sweet and salty pizza but I tried the pizza blanco today and it was incredible. It had really high quality ingredients. Their ranch is the best ranch I’ve ever had, and the onion rings are thin and crispy and addicting. It’s also really nice to be able to get specialty pizzas in the personal size. Our whole family has very different pizza taste, and that makes everyone happy.
