The Best Bloomington Restaurants - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Pizza X has shaped the lives of many young Hoosiers. We can’t confirm if this place actually exists or not because we’ve never been inside, but we do know if you dial their alleged delivery number a pizza arrives. The Big X Bargain, which includes a two topping large pizza, breadsticks, dipping sauce, and two drinks, is too big for one person and the perfect delivery order to make a new friend. That friendship may come and go, but the relationship between this pizza and ranch dressing will last forever." - jared boschan eden faye

Food was delicious and went above my expectations for such late night pizza. Loved the added touch of the personal note. P.S. we followed the advice of adding the 1000 island sauce on the burger pizza and it was SO GOOD.

Pizza X West! Pizza very warm and delicious! Extra thin crust with pepperoni-bacon-onion-crumbles sausage-and spinach. I like to mix it up and I think I have finally found my favorite🍕💕Kassandra Forrest.

Disappointed! I grew up here and was visiting from Texas. I was excited to order pizza X because it was one of my top favs. The pizza was dry and hard. I spent $40 on disappointment! Ended up just throwing away.

So many thanks to the manager today at 730 this evening. (Thursday) I placed an order and we ended up having a vehicle emergency and I called to let them know it would be a few hours before we could pick it up. When my husband finally called at 11pm to go pick it up they made us a whole new fresh order and gave it to us for free. We had a crazy miserable evening, and this was MUCH appreciated and gave us a positive end to a bad day. Retail/food/service workers are often under appreciated, just know you gave us some joy tonight. Thank you!

Just had a hostile and extremely unpleasant interaction with a delivery driver here by the name of Leslie (spelling unknown). Highly recommend management talk to their employees about their attitude because if your employees are acting like this in your own parking lot to non-customers, imagine how they are acting when you can't see them, delivering food to a customer. I had just gotten to the parking lot and parked. I was checking my phone in my car when Leslie came over and started harassing me for allegedly parking too close to her delivery vehicle, even though I was perfectly in the center of my spot and well within the lines. We got into a verbal confrontation, and even though I did move out of the way to give her space to get to her vehicle and pull out, she came back, rolled down her windows, threatened me, told me to come out of the car and fight her, then decided to march into the neighboring restaurant, Hoosier Seoulmate, to bad mouth me presumably. Again, I was parked well within the lines of my spot. If she had asked me nicely to move my car, I would've done so happily in seconds without a fuss. Instead, she initiated the interaction with a serious attitude. Regardless, I did eventually move my car and give her space, but that wasn't enough for her. Pizza X, if you're reading this, please consider how your employees are treating people in your own parking lot, what that says about how they interact with customers when they're out of sight, and how your employee's behavior and attitude reflects on your business.

Love my Pizza X. The city of Bloomington needs to do something about the homeless population hanging out right outside of Pizza X west door. People can't even walk inside without being bothered and asked for money or food.

Pizza X has now become my favorite pizza restaurant. I would take this over papa John's, cici, lil Caesar, Pizza Hut, dominoes, cafe pizzarea, shoot...even avers pizza. The all cheese pizza was so tasteful and non greasy. Then I tried the supreme pizza (because I've had supreme pizza's at other restaurants and my goodness this was the best one). The cashier was so friendly and gave me good suggestions as well. Definitely coming back

Incredible pizza at a good price with home made ranch to order (definitely recommend). Large menus to chose from and a well seasoned slice that pops with freshness!

The best breadsticks around and the "good" nacho cheese dip. The Little 500 Deal, 8 breadsticks, 2 dipping sauces and a 22 oz drink for $6.50 is one heckuva great deal! Their Featured Pizzas rotate quarterly and are always something unique, different and delicious. We live 28 miles from Bloomington, but we bring it home every chance we get!

I love the pizza called the popeye. It's unlike any other pizza for a really reasonable price! I always order Pizza X to be delivered and I am shocked every time with how fast it comes! Also I am extremely picky with ranch and there's is hands down one of the best!! I usually either order the popeye pizza or breadsticks with ranch & garlic sauce (which, by the way is really good too!) Like I said, it's a very reasonable price for pretty great pizza.

First time ever eating Pizza X pizza tonight and we were happy! Mama Bears and King Dough are our go-to spots, but Bears parking during the school year is difficult and King Dough's thin crusts do not travel well (and we wanted to eat at home this evening). So we decided to take a chance, ignore the Yelp reviews for this location, and check it out. We ordered on-line, which was simple and seamless. You can even track your order which is nice. We aren't huge fans of delivery so we picked up our pizza ourselves. Just a little over 15 bucks for a large pizza, can't beat that. Location has a good sized parking lot and it's easy to get in and get out. Our pie could have been a bit warmer, but the flavor was on point. Good crust, good sauce and good (and plentiful) toppings. Nice counter person too! Friendly, fast and tasty. We will definitely be ordering again from Pizza X on West 3rd St. Ignore the funky reviews (which mostly have to do with the delivery side of things) and try Pizza X.

Every so often, there will be some reason Pizza X is closed and I get Mother Bear's or Aver's or something instead. I'm usually pretty excited about the change in routine because the other places have such good reputations. But every time I eat a pizza that isn't Pizza X, I end up disappointed. I mean, there's only so much disappointment to be had in a pizza, because pizza. But for my money, Pizza X is the best pizza I know. It's subjective, of course, and maybe you like Aver's better (which is fine), but I wrote this review because I really think Pizza X gets short shrift in the reputation department. They do a seasonal pizza (four month rotation) that can be pretty bonkers, so it's always exciting to see what they do next. One time it was a thin crusted, hummus and bean laden thing that my husband couldn't get enough of. Another time they somehow managed to put sausage gravy on a pizza and I know that sounds disgusting, but really it was pretty good. Their standard specialty pizzas are excellent, too. I'm fond of the Dixie Chicken, the Popeye, and Porky the Pie. Delivery is quick, usually flawless, and kind. We order it roughly once a week and have done so for some time and I can think of only two times when the order was wrong. One time the driver forgot the breadsticks and he jumped right back in his car and fetched us TWO orders to make up for it. I also get the idea that the people who make the pizzas also eat the pizzas and every so often they will make a suggestion and it's always a good idea. The Big X Bargain gets you a pizza, breadsticks and a dipping sauce, and two sodas in those plastic stadium cups that aren't always the same color. Also, kind of hot, smooshy Tootsie Rolls, which I think are gross, but my kids are nuts for. Now, Aver's has a similar deal, I think, but with them you're stuck with cookies that aren't very good and Pepsi. Pepsi! I ask you. And their cups are always the came color. You might like that, but as a person with cabinets full of Pizza X cups, I can say that I really like having different color cups so I know which one's mine. In other news, does anybody need, like, fifty Pizza X cups?

20170614 I am a Groupon user and walked into this establishment to find out if they subscribe to their advertising. The young lady at the desk said she wasn't able to help me and summoned over Jalen, a gentleman who I immediately took to be someone of self-importance, judging by his dismissive and rude approach to my inquiry about Groupon. "I'm kinda busy here. What can I do for you." "I just wondered, as a Groupon user if Pizza X subscribed to them." "No we don't." I haven't eaten Pizza X pizza and can't comment on their product, although I hear by word of mouth that they're good. The customer service received from Jalen, however, wasn't welcoming in the least bit. So all Groupon subscribers be aware of this fact.

Fast delivery, but somehow my food still arrived cold. Hmmm...

I HATE leaving this review, but the last THREE orders I've placed for delivery have been awful. Once forgot all my sauces, next was over and hour after being told 30-45 mins....but most of all even with the mess up's ALL THREE TIMES SEPARATE ORDERS THE PIZZA'S WERE COLD!!! Why did I order again after the first cold pizza? Because I like pizza X I learned my lesson and will pay for a hot pizza next ordered somewhere else.

I spent three months in an opium den in Istanbul after a war I never even served in. I was shackled there by my own weaknesses. So, sir, when you ask if I know Death-- I slept next to Death, sir. The only thing that made me want to crawl up those stone steps and reach the rejuvenating waves of the Bosporus was Pizza X's breadsticks with extra garlic salt and cold, runny ranch dip. That's how I found my strength again.

Called in at 9:07, got immediate service, placed the order for delivery and was told 25-30 minutes. An hour later, no food. Call back and was put on hold for 15 minutes before hanging up and calling back multiple times before finally getting someone just to find out they never pushed my order through.

Best delivery in Bloomington! We moved to town last summer, and as pizza aficionados, we have tried every pizza delivery that delivers to us on the West side. Pizza X has great service, and even better food. The pizza is never greasy, always hot, and the drink cups are cheap and nice enough to keep around. It is pretty inexpensive for the quality of the pizza, and the tootsie rolls they throw in don't hurt either. What really blew me away was the customer service we received this week. I called in for delivery, but when the guy explained to me that it could take 1 hour due to weather conditions, I changed it to pick-up instead. When we picked up the pizza, they were unable to take off the $3.99 delivery charge due to a computer error. To make up for it, they gave us free bread sticks, cookies, AND a $4 off coupon. I even told them I would be fine with just the cookies, but they insisted on making up for their (very minor, in my opinion) mistake. They earned us as loyal customers as long as we stay in Bloomington.

Solid pizza place for sure! The breadsticks were good as well. They have a really cool custom plastic bag that works as a drink carrier which I've never seen before. Lastly, I think the tootsie rolls in the box were a nice little touch. It's all about the details!

Pretty dry, burnt, and hardly any sauce/toppings. But it was pizza. And the service was good.

Pizza X on West Third makes the best food! You can actually stand and watch them! This location is carry out only. The food is more than worth the money! Want something different, just ask! They are quick, friendly, and you get great value! The only thing you could ask for is inside seating! Beth

There was a delivery guy who came in our hotel and was gracious enough to provide the number for his location to call. Our group ordered 3 orders of breadsticks after a long night of bachelorette festivities. I specifically asked for tootsie rolls to be included in our order. Yes it was 3am. Yes I know it's crazy busy at that hour. Our sticks came in record time and were ready to be devoured. As I looked around in the numerous bags, there seemed to be something missing. The tootsie rolls. The only thing I wanted more than the sticks and cheese was warm and gooey melt in your mouth tootsie rolls. Pizza X, you have failed me.

Pizza x is a great go to pizza! Always delivered hot, great flavor, and the cheese and breadsticks are awesome. It is not really anything special, but it is the best good old fashioned pizza and breadsticks you can get!!!!

We love Pizza X, but we really love the west side branch in particular. Come for the pizza, but come back for the wonderful staff. I have had a couple instances where staff went above and beyond to make our experience wonderful. First, I am a new mom and placed an order for pick up but our baby was very fussy that night and I had trouble being able to get out the door. I was probably an hour late to pick up my pizza. When I finally made it in they insisted they wanted to make me fresh pizzas. They didn't know the situation I was dealing with at home and it was absolutely my fault I was late. I was prepared to reheat pizza in the oven, but they wanted to make sure I left with hot pizzas. A couple months later I stopped in my way home to pick up pizzas and had to bring the baby in with me. I probably could have juggled the pizza and the baby but before I could even finish paying they told me they wanted to take the pizza to the car for me. I am so thankful for the thoughtfulness and kindness of the staff. We will never be getting pizza anywhere else.

Pizza Express rebranded themselves as Pizza X a few years back in order to trademark their name. The pizza is nothing spectacular. While it can work as drunk food or late night munchies if you live in a nearby dorm, there are so many better options in town! This location is no different from any others in town.

Nothing special, decent pizza. A bit over priced in my opinion. Didn't go to IU so perhaps I don't get the specialness of it. Worth a try.
