As I sit here, staring at a 2/3 empty box of Pokee Stix with a Domino's employee who refused to admit she enjoyed them and a big smile on my face. This is good food, though I can't speak for the pizza, don't know that I've ever had it. GoombaS Pokee Stix are such a unique treat. It's good, fast, but not cheap so whatever.

I decided to check out Goomba's because any good Nintendo/Mario Bros fan would want to check this place out from the name alone. When it comes to pizza I'm the first to admit I've had my fair share of both slices and pies. That said, Goomba's was a bit disappointing. The prices were higher than most other pizza places without having a dine-in option, superior service or justified by food quality. I ordered a simple 14" Pepperoni Pokee Stix, Pepperoni and Banana Pepper 12" Pizza and a 2-liter of coke and it cost me almost $30, AFTER the weekly ad discounts. The pizza was alright, not great. The sauce had some flavor and the cheese was certainly melty, but the price for the 12" size was unexpectedly high. The Pokee Stix were much better. Flavorful and well seasoned for "finger food", but certainly not as great as the hype around campus makes it seem. I'm new to Lansing, so maybe I need some adjustment... but other cities I've lived in have had superior quality and service for the type or prices charged by Goomba's. I may be back to try other menu options eventually, but at least I'll go in well aware of the prices.

The Pokey Stix at Goombas are my absolute favorite and go to after a late night out. The service and counter are so friendly that you want to stay and chat after you get your food. Even though I'll be graduating in May I will definitely have to come back to EL for some Goombas.

The crust was mushy :-( the mozz. Sticks were bland... The nacho cheese sauce was flavorless... And for 30 bucks we got a 10 in pizza and mozzarella sticks... We are still hungry and very disappointed. Won't be ordering here again:-(

Good pizza, there is better out there but no better people. Happy, receptive, outgoing... I could go on. Great place to check out, you will not regret it. And then there's pokey sticks. Worth every red cent.

i usually love goomba's. but last night we ordered it and the food was AWFUL!! we got a pizza and two sides and all the food had clearly been made hours early and sitting under heat lamps all day. it was soggy and nasty tasting. what makes this even better is that the next morning we all woke up with food poisoning. they clearly are having some health code violations going on!!! very disappointed!

Absolutely the worst service ever. The pizza was terrible, not fully cooked, and the "pokey" sticks were dry and burnt. Also, they forgot all the sauces I ordered. Only order from them if you don't care when it'll reach you or if you have your correct and full order.

So I am back in Lansing visiting family and had to get my pokey stix fill. I won't ask why they changed from Gumby's to Goomba's pizza. I also didn't go to MSU, but rather another school that had a Gumby's pizza. I recently had some pokey stix and they were almost as good as I remember back in college. They might not be as good sober and at this point certainly give me a lot more agita than I had in my early 20's, but they were still delicious and brought back a lot of fun times.

Some seriously strange varieties of pizza, but these folks will do just about anything to get you a deal and some cheap food.
