Mason Pizzeria Grill - Fairfax

Up until this day I would say things like, There is no such thing as a bad pizza and Pizza can be great, pizza can be good, there is no bad. But, Zaytoon has taught me the error of my ways. Or is it Mason? They have not quite figured out their name, and they have not quite figure out the method for making good pizza. Two stars for good people and good service...Margherita and cheese pizza were dry, overcooked, and somehow yeasty or sour, almost like the crust was a sourdough. I am sure it is food, and it will get eaten. My kids seem to like it alot.

Inconsistent. The first few times I ordered from here it was some of the best pizza and v fries I've ever had. Lately, it's been hit and miss. I end up waiting much longer at the restaurant than the time given when I order (usually 2x as long), burnt tops, and last time not even cut into slices. When they're good they're great. It's just figuring out when that is can be tough.

Order was late and food was wrong. I ordered at 4:45pm on a Tuesday directly from their website with a 45-55 minute delivery estimate. I received a phone call 55 minutes later asking me to clarify what I wanted on the Asiago Bacon Rolls? which I had to explain I only wanted cheese and bacon. I knew this meant my order had not been made yet. 1.5 hours later I received my order with delivery and no reason was given for being late. Also, I specifically ordered the chef special pizza with pan crust but what I received was the equivalent of a bland cheese bread with scarce sauce and toppings (nothing special about this pizza) in the wrong crust. I am appalled by the quality of this order and pizzeria. I called to ask what happened and they admitted to giving me the wrong pizza and offered a $2 refund. Worst. Customer. Service. Save yourself a headache and your taste buds and order from another competent pizzeria that values order integrity and repeat customers.

I want this place to succeed! It's in a fantastic spot, surrounded by townhomes, adjacent to George Mason U, on a main road, should have a ton of traffic on a Friday Night, It should be the go to neighborhood spot. We have been looking for delicious pizza, the mailer we got did the job and brought us there. Sadly, most of the order didn't hold up. The signage hasn't changed to Mason Pizzeria yet. Bruschetta, was not chopped garlic, tomatoes, basil drizzled in olive oil. It was however a square pizza dough with a slice of tomatoes and dried cheese, no garlic, no herbs, no fresh tomato or oil. Ordered an Alfredo pizza, though I am sure they put Alfredo on it somewhere, I couldn't taste it. It was a very dry cheese pizza. Order of Tomato Viscouvio= 6 thin slices of tomatoe with a cheese and pesto baked into the bottom of a pan w/3 pieces of garlic bread..Finally! some garlic to be found sadly none of it was in the pizza or the rest of the order. A meat calzone was ordered and the eater reported it was decent. I implore the owner to use garlic, put sauce on the pizza. We decided to eat in the restaurant with no one in it. When asked if we could have some napkins or paper plates it was met with resistance instead of course. Beautiful mailer and menu on line.

Pizza is delicious. Sides leave much to be desired. Delivery is so slow it is almost non-existent. After the delivery is 45-60 minutes late from ETA and we call we always get, the driver just left. We either had great timing multiple times or they are not even bothering to deliver until we call. Recommend to always choose pick up. Also, depending on where you look it 's either called Zaytoon or Mason Pizza.
