Red Lion

Well, unlike what another reviewer says we are SO NOT spoiled by great pizza places around here - at least not up here on the Ridge (Chico has a couple of decent places, but I really wish Mary's would open a place closer to here)...
BUT - getting back to Red Lion, I have had there Pizza more than a 15-20 times over the past couple of years because they deliver here in Magalia (so I can't comment on their restaurant).  Their pizza is what I would call average for a California pizza - plenty of toppings.  Crust is OK, a cut above Dominos, on par with Round Table, but this sure ain't brick oven quality.  The sauce seems designed "not to offend" instead of shooting for being really special at the risk of being "too this" or "too that" for somebody.  But when your family wants Pizza, this will work, the kids will probably love it & and its a long ways from being bad.  Their is plenty of bad pizza in small towns, Magalia is lucky to have a place with at least halfway decent pizza.

Very shocked at all the negative reviews!  This pizza is absolutely delish!  Our favorite is pepperoni and sausage with the garlic sauce plus extra garlic!  To die for... No lie drive from Paradise up to Magalia just to indulge, and BTW  on Wednesdays if you buy and X-large pizza you get a free pitcher of beer!  All this and I paid under 20 bucks!  Where else can you get a deal like that...   Love, love, love this place.

We are spoiled with great pizza joints around here, Red Lion is not one of them.  It is mediocre at best.  Ive gone there 2 times and I do not plan to ever go there again.  Id rather drive to Paradise to get a decent slice.
