Uncle G’s Pizza is Awesome! A Must-Try in Hoover!

Uncle G’s Pizza is truly awesome! The food is incredible, and the entire Hoover store is ridiculously clean—which I really appreciate.
​They have great daily deals; a huge shout-out for the BOGO pizzas on Wednesdays! I ate my pizza too fast to snap a photo, but that cookie with the ice cream was an excellent way to finish.
​A big bonus is that they make their own dough in-house, and you can see how clean and organized the preparation room is. I was most impressed by the restroom, which is a rare find in a casual Birmingham pizza spot. This place is clean, inviting, and serves great food.
​I loved the mini arcade with the pinball machines, too. I will be back for sure!

Ps if you all read these let’s do a wine night special, you have all those bottles tempting me now push me over the edge with a deal.

10/10 Pizza, service, atmosphere. My girlfriend and I come here every Monday night. Easily the best Pizza in and around Birmingham. I love the fact that everyone in here is so nice, and helpful. I love being able to get free refills on my fountain drinks. Service is always super fast, doesn’t take but 10 minutes at most to get our food! We love Uncle G’s!

Soooo I finally decided to stop by based on reviews and I love pizza and cheese mmmmmmmm. Not only was customer service through the roof, but the pizza was soooo delicious and flavorful I ended up getting 2 slices and left full. The joint was clean, very welcoming and a place to be with friends. I for sure will return to try the Detroit pizza with pineapples added

I knew once I walked through the door I was about to be disappointed just from the appearance of the staff; one found it convenient to check my order to see if it was made correctly and of course it wasn’t but gave me the opportunity to wait another 30-40 minutes to make such a simple pizza correctly on a day where no other customers were in the store and after receiving food like this I see why!!! Just dumped the ingredients on and I couldn’t even bring myself to take a bitetrash

Pretty good deep dish. Needs to be baked a little longer and be crispier to really be a good detroit style. Very greasy. Garlic bread was really good. Would go back if I was in the area.

The best Detroit style pizza around. Everything is fresh, hot, and of very high quality! Every day there’s a different deal and there’s events like trivia most weekdays. The staff is also awesome! We are regulars!

Went in with high expeditions, but we quickly found out their dining area was closed. That’s fine, but then half the menu items weren’t available, at six o’clock in the evening on a Saturday. We saw a few other patrons try and get food from there, but were put off by the closed dining area. So, we went across the street to Boston Fish, HOOVER and were pleasantly surprised! So atleast we got something good out of the experience!

UPDATE: Appreciate the response! For the record, one calm review describing a closed dining room and limited menu at 6pm isn’t exactly a wrecking ball, but I admire the confidence.

No hard feelings. We found dinner across the street, enjoyed some really good peach tea, plus indoor and outdoor seating, you minimized overhead, and the free market worked as expected. Best of luck going forward.

This review is specific to their pizza buffet on Thursdays.

Uncle G’s has a pizza buffet available on Thursdays during set lunch and dinner time frames. They advertise it as having all of their Detroit style pizza as well as a couple of the NY style pizza. Also present would be rotating appetizers and cinnamon rolls and cookies.

The description above is kind of accurate, except for a few issues:
1) They seem to be short-handed, especially for a buffet. I saw 4 employees total manning the register and the back. So often there would be a huge line waiting either for pizza (as they serve it to you at the buffet, it’s not self-serve) or waiting to order.
2) Often, there is very little pizza available on the buffet when you hit the prime dinner time…and since buffet only runs for 3 hours at dinner time, it’s mostly prime time, ha. Instead of all the variety, only a couple would be available and you would have to wait for a variety you want to come out…..sometimes it never comes out. For example, for over an hour, a NY style pizza never came out….or at least not long enough for you to get a slice if you are not standing there waiting.
3) There does not seem to be a good warming mechanism for the pizza on the bar. So if you settle for an unpopular flavor that’s available on the bar because you don’t want to wait, that pizza is likely to be cold to lukewarm at best. The first 3 slices I got on my first run to the bar were cold. So…I have heard some people love cold pizzas, unfortunately I am not one of them with all that congealed cheese, cold sauce, and cold toppings. So after that I waited for new pizzas to come out…which means dinner took a very long time.

As far as the food itself. If you are able to catch the pizza hot, it’s actually pretty tasty. The cinnamon rolls are cold and hard, not at all good. The cookie is good for people that likes very soft centers. There are NO greens or salad of ANY KIND on the buffet! So nothing to balance out the huge carb intake, makes it a pretty unhealthy meal.

I did have some rather unpleasant customer service interactions on this visit that would make my visit a one-star experience….and greatly decreases the chance of me returning or bringing family/friends here in the future. However, after some consideration, the chance of the exact same situation happening to someone else is probably not terribly high, so the rating does not reflect that.

After seeing this thing pop up advertising I decided I had to try it so we came here for a special day and it did not disappoint. They are known for their square deep dish and you can order each slice different. I tried four different slices and they were awesome. Now I cut these slices in half to share with other people. I also ordered th,,e cheese bread which was fabulous. The sauce was very tangy and actually had tomatoes inside.. the place was very clean and everything was fresh. So far this is the best pizza place I have been in Alabama. They even support local artists.

I’m not big on deep dish style pizza but after hearing so many people talk about this place I decided to give it a try. I ordered online and it was ready when I arrived, they put the sauce on the side and toppings for the fig pizza were on the side as well, I appreciated that because I was an hour from home. The staff member at the front who helped me was very friendly, not just to me but the other 2 people that came in as well. The restaurant has a nice atmosphere and lots of options for beer or wine. The women’s bathroom had little jars with things you may need as a women, that was a nice touch. My husband and I both loved this pizza, it was still amazing after getting it home and just as good the next day. The crust is flavorful and the perfect combination of crunch and softness. This is officially one of our favorite places for pizza in Alabama! And we widened in next time to enjoy a drink with our meal. We 100% recommend giving this place a try if you happen to be in the area, you won’t be disappointed.
