Red Elephant Pizza and Grill in Dothan, AL

The Facts:

Pizza: Red Elephant Pizza and Grill
Business Category: Regional Chain (2 locations, one in Tallahassee and one in Dothan)
Website: https://redelephantpizza.com/index.php
Location: 3108 Ross Clark Circle in Dothan, AL (on the west side of Dothan near US 84)
Date of Review Visit: December 10, 2020
What I Ordered: Individual (8") pizza with Italian sausage and pepperoni, Dr. Pepper to drink
Price: $11.96 (includes drink and tax but not tip)

 

The Micro:

Crust: The crust at Red Elephant is a true southern thin crust.  It has a nice crispy texture, and my pizza was baked just the right amount.  I like it.  Score: 9/10.

Sauce: There is not a lot of sauce on this pizza.  What sauce there is has a pasty texture and does not offer much flavor.  Score: 5/10.

Cheese: This pizza has a moderate amount of cheese, and it does not produce much grease.  Therefore, I like this cheese more than moderately much.  Score: 8/10.

Toppings: The sausage appears in tiny crumbles; it is spicy but provides no real flavor.  Likewise the pepperoni adds little flavor.  Both toppings appear in high quantity.  Score: 5/10.

 

The Macro:

Appearance/Atmosphere/Service: The pizza looks like the nice thin crust pizza it is.  Red Elephant has a nice dining area with some video games for younger patrons.  The service was quick and attentive.  Score: 10/10.


Value: The quality is decent, and the price is relatively low.  Therefore, the value is pretty high. Score: 7/10.

Taste: This pizza leaves spiciness but not much else on the taste palette, so this score leaves somewhat to be desired.  Score: 12/20.

 

The Final Judgment:

There are some things to like about Red Elephant (even if you are not a Crimson Tide fan), but in Dothan I like nearby Mama Rosa's a little more.  Score: 56/80.
