Honestly it's better than it was. They're still not even in my top 5, local pizza shop over chain any day of the week, but if you're in a tight place financially, you can get a good meal for very cheap
They don’t have much consistency across franchises. All the Domino’s range from edible to garbage to utter garbage.
What we have noticed (with all pizza shops, probably most franchises takeaway shops) is; A) they open with original Franchisees. Food quality is great and price is appropriate. B) they start replacing managers with casual staff paid nothing. C) Franchise gets sold. D) new franchise owners skimp on everything and quality goes down significantly.
The problem is that if you skimp on cheap ingredients for a Souvlaki GR or Burgled, the quality goes from fantastic, to mediocre, to meh. Dominos starts at Mediocre, crashes to Shit immediately after the honeymoon period.
I mean, pizza is pizza, right? COWABUNGA!
