FYI: The pizza is 18" in diameter and weighs a little over 2 pounds--maybe 34 ounces. The ones we get have a very thin crust--similar to New York-style pizza with a modest amount of sauce and cheese. It's not like Costco pizza, which has a thicker crust and a lot of cheese (over a pound).
My pizza the second week was 16" in diameter in a 16" square box. Same store as last week which gave me an 18" pizza (about 20% smaller compared to first week).
Third week pizza: Box is back to 18" and pizza is a bit over 17" in diameter and weighed 34 oz (same as first week).

Are any of you experiencing similar at your locations? Odd that they require 3 hours in the middle of a Friday to sanitize, particularly when they're running a highly popular special. This is the Ashburn location in Northern Virginia.
Last week the pizza was surprisingly really good and definitely beyond my expectations. It filled the big brown box, looked good and tasted like maybe a $3 slice from a decent place in NYC.
...
Round pizza both times in 18.5"x18.5" boxes ($16 reg price)...kinda strange people are getting different sized boxes even for rounds.
Week 2 was 16" in diameter in a 16" square box. Same store as last week which gave me an 18" pizza (about 20% smaller compared to first week).
Week 3: Box is back to 18" and pizza is a bit over 17" in diameter and weighed 34 oz
Week 4 (skipped pizza because we got that 20 pound Labor Day lobster deal mentioned on SD)
Week 5: Box is 18", and pizza is 17.5" and weighed 32 ounces.
I usually go to the back yard, grab fresh tomatoes, peppers, and basil, then add to the top of the pizza: fresh mozarella, slices of onion, mushrooms, tomatoes, fresh roasted peppers, cooked, sliced asparagus, kalamata olives, and then throw it under the broiler (under the lowest setting) for a couple of minutes to warm up the toppings. I then add the basil, pesto and some prosciutto on top after taking it out of the oven. It's a bit of the "stone soup" approach to pizza, I guess.
came in a 18" box about
from what other people are saying the circle pizza seems to be usually slightly bigger, 16" dia = 200.36
17" dia = 226.865
18" dia = 254.34
The last time I tried whole food's pizza was a couple of years ago and I remember it being much, much better.

Edit: my parents just came to visit and my dad (who is 1st gen Italian and hates everything) said, "this is pretty good pizza" so huh... I'm not sure that if I were to order the same pizza next week that it would be identical but I'll take it! As soon as I tasted the tart sauce I knew he'd be okay with it. A lot of people focus on the dough but in Jersey, pizza sauce cannot be too sweet. That's the first thing we'll notice that makes it taste booty. Our water is superior so it's hard to mess up the dough too badly lol.

Too much cheese is always good for me. I wish the ones near me can make pie like that, round and cheesy.
