Why you so against the pasta?
I myself like an antipasto salad (hold the pasta hate, please!)

Who expected it to be good? They even tell you - It's rat pizza.

Will this building survive the demolition of Star Tours once SW:GE opens?
I thought they already tried to rip off Chuck E Cheese

The thing that I don’t understand is why did they retheme it to start with to serve the same pizza? The food was terrible at Pizza Planet too but it was Pizza Planet. Disney totally dropped the ball by not putting a Pizza Planet back in Toy Story Land. Put Pizza Planet back there with better pizza!!! Heck, even if it is crappy pizza, at least it would be Pizza Planet.

Agreed, they were also too cheap to give the land its own store, and some type of indoor dining location pizza planet or otherwise. This park to me seems more disjointed than ever.

Al’s Toy Barn would have been amazing.

I actually like the pizza here. I think it is getting way too much hate. What I don't understand is how it's always slow when HS has basically no good quick service places, even more limited to QS with air conditioning. I think an updated menu that had larger pizzas for families would really help utilize the space better. All the room with bigger tables begs for family-sized pizzas. That's an easy fix; ideally, some Rizzo and other Muppet animatronics around (perhaps Rizzo popping out of hidden areas in the ceiling) would make the place more fun, especially for kids. I would still rather eat here than ABC Commissary.

I'd say add some arcade games and pinball in addition to improving the pizza.
And while not a fan of Mellow Mushroom, I have come around to thinking it might be a good idea to contract out at least some of the QS food to some solid established brands (think Shake Shack rather than McDonalds), and tastefully integrate them while also keeping some unique in-house QS food as well. It's just a bummer to see facilities like this sitting dormant in packed parks, regardless of season.

It was just the first bit of the SWGE expansion that was built. I presume the initial expectation would have seen the gap between Rizzo and Star Wars being much shorter. Mothballing it until its purpose arrives makes some sense.
It would be appreciated if they took the opportunity to address the customer feedback they must have collected on the menu being below expectation. Maybe doing that won't increase the profits, but sending people home with a bad experience isn"t good business long term.

It wasn’t flatbread when we were there in August. The meatball sub was servicable for what it’s worth.

But as you can get reservations for Mama Melrose, people find it when searching for dinners to book.
Because Andy's backyard didn't have a Pizza Planet or Toy Store in it... the theme of TSL is "Andy's Back Yard."

Taste is certainly subjective, but I think there are many who don't share your opinion of the quality of the pizza, that coupled by the fact its tucked away in a corner of the park many don't visit didn't bode well for Rizo.

but what a ridiculous dead ended theme that is... If Guardians Of The Galaxy fits Future World in EPCOT, Pizza Planet is a LOT closer in theme. at least it is from the same franchise and story.
