So the only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is because it takes anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half for delivery...always.
I always get the pasta with meat sauce and I swear, I'm addicted to it. Â The food is ALWAYS delicious...with the exception of the pizza...I just can't get into it. Â However, the calzones, salads, soups, pastas....delicious!! Â They also deliver til 4 in the morning which is wonderful on those long nights :)
Food is good but never (and I mean NEVER) correct. The other reviews talk about how long it takes for delivery but even when you are standing in front of them they make you wait forever. Don't drive away without checking your order because you always have to go back in (and wait again) to get the order that you wanted. You will pay for the correct order and you can watch them write it down correctly but you NEVER get what you paid for.
Review Source:Caesar dressing is great. And they make it there. The soup tastes like it's out of a can. The fries are awesome but they kinda make ya feel like you're lucky they exist. The delivery took over 1 1/2 hours. I live 2 blocks away. Only had it delivered bc it was midnight and didn't have a car. For fast late night delivery use Big C's Downtown Pizza. But these guys do a good job on salads and their margarita pizza is really good too.
Review Source:When we called the front desk for delivery pizza options, Doughboys was one of the suggestions. It certainly is not based on their ability to deliver it. We were told 50-60 minutes, which is the usual amount of time that I have been quoted at other places although it often only takes 30 minutes. Not at Doughboys! It actually took them over  1.5 hours and the pizza was cold. When I called to verify the time that I ordered the pizza to make sure that it actually took that long to deliver a pizza 5 miles away, it took the person on the other end of the phone 8 minutes to tell me. He did offer to put me to the head of the line and send out another one asap. Really? Like I trust that!
I finally got over myself and the disappointment of eating so late and tried the pizza. It's actually pretty good. The Doughboy Deluxe, with pepperoni, sausage, onions, green peppers, mushrooms and black olives, was loaded on a thin tasty buttery crust. Not as greasy as usual pizzas with pepperoni on them so that was a nice surprise. Tender crust too.
The guy on the phone offered a credit to order again or come in and try again. I think that I will find the place and dine in since i'm not really ready to try their delivery anytime soon. I'll let you know.
Tried for hours to call in a delivery order to be delivered to our hotel. I can only wait so long and then forget it. After reading the reviews no wonder the line was busy busy all the time. Should at least answer your phone on a friday night, customers might be trying to place orders. Reviews and hotel staff said it was a great italian joint for delivery, but it's obvious whenever they get around to answering the phone and or delivering.
Review Source:Food was great but the customer service is horrible!!!!!! They took the order by phone, repeated it back, then failed to deliver some of the items. When I called to say items were missing from my delivery, the woman said she never repeated those items back. I reminded her how we joked that I can never order less than 4 items every time I call, yet I only received delivery of 2. She became rude and snippy when **I** apologized and said "I'm sorry you think you didn't hear me, but clearly I was charged, gave your driver the coupon for it and I'd like my delivery as promised." She replied "FINE!!!! If we have another delivery in your area today, we'll send it out, but you're WRONG - you never said that in your order!" I thanked her (hoping she would in turn show good customer service and correct the wrongdoing). Then I waited several hours for a delivery that never showed. Finally, my guests said "Let's call again and place a small order and see if they bring our original order with the delivery as promised (obviously noting that the delivery would be "in my area"). They delivered the new small order, but no sight of the rest of my other order from earlier. I will NOT be calling them for anything ever again, as $80 for the day was quite enough for failed delivery, bad customer service, broken promises/lies, and to be treated so rudely when I was catering to several guests who would have given them more repeat business in the future had the experience been nicer. It's really too bad they think they can get away with stealing money from their patrons without consequence.
Review Source:Fast  and friendly service. Unfortunately, the pizza is not very good. Since we only tried the pizza, it's all I can comment on.
I have seen this restaurant many times as I have been in the area for the past 5 years. Finally, we werer craving pizza and decided to try it. I liked the name because in New England, Dough Boys are fried pieces of pizza dough that is covered with powdered sugar. So I looked up the menu a long time ago, but alas, no dough boys- just what looked to be a good varied menu.
Per the website, they open at 10:30 am Mon-Fri, but when we got there at 11:40 am, they were still not open. They did open the door and let us sit and look at the menu until it was 11:00 am and then order. Typical pizza decor, booths, and you order at the counter and go get your food when it is ready.
We ordered a large pizza (regular) with sausage amd mushrooms. Nothing wild or crazy, although they did offer numerous ways and many toppings. The menu is big with lots of salads, sandwiches, both hot and cold. They even had chicken wings and pasta dishes.
The pizza was big, and the crust was crisp, not oily. However, there was not enough tomato sauce on it, and there was lots of cheese. Sounds like it hsould have been good, but it was pretty dry.
Add fresh mushrooms that were really dry and crisp around the edges and crumbled sausage that was so crumbled it was burnt in spots and it was not very good.
A lot could have been better if there was just enough tomato sauce for the mushrooms to stay moist and the cheese to melt into the sauce. Then the sausage would not have tasted likle grains of sand. I think there was 10 slices or so. We ate 4 and did not ask for a box for the rest.
Really disappointed. I should have read the yelp reviews and made a better decision.
Yelp needs 1/2 stars.
GREAT SERVICE Â food was mediocre at best. Â I had linguine with meat sauce add mushrooms and cream of spinach soup, she had Penne a'la vodka. Â
Mine had no mushrooms and was very bland, the soup was terrible. Â Her's was more like runny soup and had little flavor.
Food was OKAY. The person who took the delivery order over the phone wasn't very knowledgeable about the menu, and charged for items we should have already received. The delivery man was SUPER rude and complained about his 3$ tip.... Food was smashed into the boxes and spilled in the bag... they left out some of our Order so after waiting an hour for the food to arrive we waited an additional hour for the remaining food to come. Â Wont be ordering anytime soon, that is for sure!
Review Source:Started off by calling to place a carry out ordere and was placed on hold for over 5 mins then hanging up and calling right back and again placed on hold. Finally able to place my order ( combination #3) Chicken Parm with Stuffed Shells, garden salad and garlic rolls ($15.95). Order was ready for pickup when told however upon reaching home with my order, the only thing that was edible was the sauce. The chicken Parm was like rubber and the breading was soggy. Tasted like it had been made earlier in the day and microwaved to order ( You all know how chicken gets after being microwaved). Yuck! And now for the stuffed shells... Not too sure what they were stuffed with but the cheese had a very "fake & rubbery" taste and texture. I'm not Italian however I know my italian food and if I'm correct, the shell should have a ricotta cheese in them. The mystery stuffing in those shells was horrible. Garden salad was a poor excuse for a salad, consisting of iceberg lettuce, 1 slice of tomato, some red onion and a perpercinni. Italian dressing was ok but nothing spectacular. I won't be back.
Review Source:This place rocks! Â I've always randomly popped in to eat lunch throughout the years but recently, I have become somewhat of a regular. Â I started ordering their pizza by the slice, next graduating to the meatball sub and currently on the 1/2 ham n provolone cheese sub with their delicious side of pasta salad! where can you get a huge sandwich with all the fixings and a nice side of pasta salad for $5.25 these days? Â
The location is great if you are coming from the beach but not as if you are coming off of federal hwy. Â I've had business lunches with colleagues years ago as well as dining on my own and it's always a welcome environment each time. Â The staff is friendly and entertaining and my order always comes out fairly quickly and correct. Â Their salads look like a contender for my next obsession n I look forward to my return even though I just ate lunch there again today!!!
Definitely a three star. The people are great. The regulars in the joint seem to feed on that ambiance. Location - GREAT! This is the closest pizza place to the beach yet is still reasonably priced.The menu is like a phonebook and a dictionary combined. It's large. Â The food is so so; but listen to this; we had the leftovers in a Doughboys' takeout box and the valet parking attendants at the W Hotel stated we had found the best pizza in Ft Lauderdale. All at once it tasted better.
Review Source:This is a little hole in the wall place that puts out some pretty good food. Ive been going here for years and I can't really complain. The best part is you can get the food to go, drive 5mins and eat on the beach. The sandwiches are HUGE. The pizza is pretty good and so are the calzones. The menu has something for everyone on it and is super extensive.I'm not saying they have the best pizza ever but they are pretty good! It is a little grimy on the inside but if you can see past that you enjoy the food!
Review Source:I live around the corner now, so I decided to try out Doughboys. I picked up 2 pepperoni pizzas the other night and used a $3 off coupon on a large one topping. Total came to $29-something. Not the cheapest prices, but the pizza was really good. Everyone commented that it was delicious. Comparing it to other pizzas I've had in the area, I'd say it was above average. The food were ready when I arrived for pickup in 20 minutes and service at the counter was friendly. I'll probably go back another time...
