4 /5 Explore With Us Reviews: Visited Helen Back Pizza on Thursday, October 9, 2025 around 8 PM with my wife and another couple for our first visit. Unfortunately, the night started off rough — we stood at the front counter for about 15 minutes with no one helping us. Several employees said the cashier would be “right back,” but she never returned. Eventually, we were told that no one there knew how to use the kiosk system, which was confusing to hear.
We were finally told we could seat ourselves in the bar area, where one hardworking bartender seemed to be doing it all. She was running around non-stop while other employees looked unsure of what to do. Once we finally got our orders in, things improved.
My wife and our friend got the $5 endless mimosas (Thursday special). We ordered the 16-inch Chicken Bacon Ranch Pizza and an order of egg rolls. The pizza came out fast, topped with white garlic sauce, chicken, bacon, cheese, and jalapeños — ranch on the side. It was good, around 7/10, though we all agreed it would’ve been better with the ranch drizzled on top instead of as a dip.
The egg rolls were the star of the night — crispy, flavorful, and served with Thai spice sauce that really elevated them. A definite 9/10 despite the $9 price for three (or six halves).
Our friends ordered a 10-inch cheese pizza (simple but fresh, 7/10) and the Stewby Pizza with shrimp, balsamic, and margarita-style toppings. I’m not a shrimp fan, but removing them left a surprisingly good margarita pizza (8/10 across the board).
In total, we spent about $50 before tip for the 16-inch pizza, egg rolls, a soda, and mimosas. Overall, the food was good, not the “best in the area” as some reviews say, but still worth trying.
Would I return? Yes, probably to try the sandwiches next time.
Would I recommend it? Yes, with honesty — great flavors once you get past the chaotic start.
