Pegasus Pizza – South Eugene

I really like Pegasus. It’s classic pizza made with care. I’m looking forward to trying all the menu has to offer.

Very good pizza, awesome service and they always seem to be open when I need them. :)

Yummmmmy. Good staff, helpful with menu and finding options to fit dietary needs. Nice outside seating.
Pizza crust a little soggy… but otherwise delicious!

Great quality pizza that is well worth the price! Tijuana Taxi is my absolute favorite.

I love Pegasus. I have always loved their pizza. I love that my vegan husband can get a good vegan pizza there that includes dairy free cheese and tons of gourmet toppings.
Lately I have been loving the salads. I have tried the pear gorgonzola with feta instead of gorgonzola and the strawberry chevre. Both with chicken and house dressing. The salads are huge and very fresh. I love the house dressing and love that they don’t skimp on the dressing or chicken.
Service is always very friendly. I would recommend anyone try Pegasus.

Love the bar down stairs

I’m a big fan of Pegasus. I’ve been to 2 of the 3 locations and they were both consistent.
The Mt. St. Helens pizza is delicious if you like meat. The meatballs are to die for!
I also really like their Hawaiian pizza.
They have some nice outdoor tables and the service was friendly.

First time at Pegasus tonight and I couldn’t be happier with my impromptu decision to go and get a pie for take out. Nice little spot to go and grab a quick bite. Well lit and good for a group of no more thank 3 – 4 people. Me and my girlfriend were stuck on all the delicious flavor combinations so the girl behind the counter recommended a half and half. Brilliant! So we did, also they were about 15 minutes till closing and we wanted it for take out! Went next door to 16 Tons and had a beer while the pizza was being made and went back a minute or two after closing and they were really nice and had our pizza waiting for us.
Got home, ate the pizza and it was delicious! The crust was great too! Light and bubbly! Half Olympus/​Cali club was
!! Pegasus earned a faithful customer tonight! Well done.

I would give them zero stars if I could. Easily the worst pizza I have ever had which surprises me because of their reputation. The pizza we had was very undercooked with a very soft chewy crust. My jaw is very tired after chewing three pieces. I will likely need physical therapy to recover. Crust is the worst ever (and I have been eating pizza for over 50 years) — very undercooked. Chicken on the pizza, was also chewy, probably was frozen before. These guys wouldn’t last a week in NY. Stay away. Give someone else a chance.

I think Pegasus deserves another star, we’ve had it twice and it’s wonderful! Well it will cost you more than papa Murphy but it does NOT make me have an upset stomach, so the ingredients are #1 for sure! You can taste the pepperoni and sausage! I love it and can’t wait to order again. I called it in for pick up twice and it was ready exactly when they said it would be done, very impressive of the staff! Thanks Pegasus!

«Yeah it’s ok» said with a slight shrug, a subtle gesture acknowledging the relative dearth of good Za in this town. The slices are generally pretty bad, old pieces of reheated thin crust parched of any moistness by their age; the veggie slice is invariably devoid of all but a few dessicated red peppers. Cooked pepperoni ages better apparently. Where Pegasus (and I’m talking about the S Willamette location here) shines is with fresh pizza. While not stupendous, it is at least good enough to share with friends without worrying about incurring their scorn.

I had occasion to pay a visit to Pegasus Pizza today, as my wife and one of her friends decided to take a study lunch break from LCC.
We each ordered a lunch special, which was a huge pizza slice of our choice and a salad. I got the pepperoni with a Greek salad, which was $ 7.25, if I remember correctly.
The gentleman who served us, both at the register and the table, was very friendly, and quickly brought our order to our table.
I ate the salad first, which had romaine, kalamata olives, tomatoes, feta cheese and vinaigrette. I asked to hold the peppercinis, as I don’t really like them. The salad was made from very fresh ingredients, and very flavorful.
Then I dug into the pizza! After eating my salad, it was still piping hot. It was a huge thin-​crust slice, with hot gooey cheese and delicious pepperoni! It was heaven in my mouth!
Unfortunately, I live quite a ways from Pegasus, but when I do go to South Eugene, I always make a point to grab a bite to eat at this fantastic, locally-​owned and operated pizzeria!
I’m dating myself here, but a cool bonus is that there is almost always great New Wave music playing in the background!

I just ordered an Aegean gluten free pizza and let me tell you, I’ve had many gluten free pizzas but this is one of the best! The crust has flavor and doesn’t taste like cardboard like so many other crusts and the pizza toppings themselves were fresh and wonderful. The service was very nice and fast as well. I highly recommend them!

The location is right next door to the Market of Choice, the interior is very nice and the booths are very comfortable.
I ordered 2 slices, they range from 2.75−3.75 each.
They also have a slice, salad, and drink special for roughly 7 – 8 dollars.
I went with the meat option, which was Hawaiian + jalapenos. The second slice I ordered was a plain cheese.
First impressions when looking at it were pretty good. But as soon as I picked up a slice, the middle of the pizza was droopy and I realized quickly why my pizza was delivered with a fork.
The sauce just didn’t taste very good either, it needed more acid, salt and garlic — just bland.
Total let down for pizza, I really liked the people and interior, just wish the food matched.

I hate to say it… but I really prefer Market of Choice’s ala carte pizza rather than Pegasus and both are in the same complex. Here is the deal– every time I have gotten a made to order pizza from Pegasus the cheese ends up sliding completely off of the dough when I pick up a slice. You know what I’m talking about. Cheese. Off the dough. Not fun.
In all fairness, I really do enjoy their cesar salad dressing.

Pegasus is just fine. A-​ok ‘za.
Frankly, I wish that I loved it; it being right in the neighborhood and all, but it’s really just average. The crust is too thick for me, and the red sauce ain’t my fave. The three sisters though, is a good pie, and on their olive oil base I get to avoid the red sauce issue.
The atmosphere is nice, typical for the location (strip-mall’esque) and the service is friendly. When ordering take-​out, make sure to confirm your order, though. We’ve had to learn this lesson the hard way. On more than two occasions, my Man has returned home with pie we didn’t order. Still I would be remiss in overlooking the fact that Pegasus was more than happy to remake our pie when they learned of the error.

My first time eating pizza at Pegasus and I wanted to know only how their plain cheese pizza compared to Market of Choice’s next store in terms of taste. I didn’t experience their dine-​in table service.
I called ahead and ordered one medium cheese and it was ready for me on time for pick up. Good customer service — the girl was friendly and gave me two extra slices and discounted the pie because the pizza slid into the box a little weird, but it didn’t look bad to me. I’ll take that, though.
So the pizza wasn’t bad, but I must say that the pizza next door at the MoC hot food counter simply tastes much better. The cheese has much more flavor or something and the crust is doughier. It’s kind of sad because I want this place to survive, but I can’t justify going here when it costs the same to get a much tastier slice 50 ft. away. If that weren’t the case, I might come here for lunch. But it is the case. So I probably won’t be frequenting Pegasus :(

1 star — 5 stars for the bartender, –4 stars for the restaurant.
My suggestion — SKIP THIS PLACE!
If you’re in dire need of pizza, buy it next door at PC Market of Choice. But, DO NOT go to this Pegasus pizza location. Here’s why…
When you first walk through the door, you find a great looking location. It is bright and friendly. They really did a good job of converting the prior restaurant (Black Rabbit), which was dark and stuffy, to a friendly pizza place atmosphere. In addition, they kept the bar around back, which serves beer and wine.
However, the experience goes down hill from there…
If you’re really lucky, you’ll be greeted by a host /​waitress who is friendly and outgoing — I think she said her name is Morgan — she came back to our table three times to see if we were in need of anything, and if the food was to our liking. She was very professional and very friendly…
However, If you’re not so lucky — which is more likely the case — you’re going to be greeted by a not so friendly host /​waitress — she wasn’t actually around long enough for me to catch her name — if I were to describe her, she’s shorter, has brown hair, medium build…
Honestly, I’m not sure why this other person is even in the service industry — she’s rude, and incompetent. She greets you with a fake smile, and an even more fake ‘sit anywhere you like’ greeting. After the initial oh-​so-​awkward moment, she’ll follow you to the table you choose, throw the menus on the table, and briskly walk off. (it was such an awkward moment, we even discussed amongst ourselves if we had sat at a ‘the wrong’ table, or what we might have possibly did to piss this person off)
As if enduring this person as our host wasn’t enough, we then have to endure this person as our server! Oh my! After waiting for what seems like an eternity, she finally arrives at our table to take our order. (we discuss what she might be busy with, as there are only two tables occupied in the entire restaurant)
Our pizza arrives at the table… and what do we find? it’s made wrong! (this starts the discussion of how hard can it be to put two ingredients on a pizza, with a third ingredient on half?)
In addition to that discovery, we go to serve the made wrong pizza, only to find it’s burned on the bottom and around the edges! Burned? Seriously? I’m 90% sure our pizza was the only pizza in the oven! How do you burn the only pizza in the oven?
However, we’re starving… so instead of sending the pizza back, and enduring what I can only describe of as a troll of a host /​server, we decide to eat the ingredients off of the top of the pizza with our forks…
And so ends our first experience at Pegasus Pizza on Willamette…
Wanting to give the place more than one chance — we have visited the campus location over the years and have thoroughly enjoyed the food and service there — we decide to go back a few more times…
Here is a summary of our visits…
Friendly professional host /​server — 1 out of 7 visits
Rude troll unprofessional server — 3 out of 7 visits
Friendly professional bartender server — 3 out of 7 visits
Wrong pizza — 2 out of 7 visits
Burned pizza — 4 out of 7 visits
And although the prior experiences had been an overall poor experience, we decide to give Pegasus Pizza on Willamette one last chance… what follows, is a description of that experience…
We arrive to find the place fairly busy in comparison to the past — which really surprises me, considering our past experiences… We walk in the front door — and since there is no one at the register (in the front) — we seat ourselves. Hoping to avoid ‘the troll host /​server’, we seat ourselves in the last table below the television, across from the bar.
The bartender comes over (he’s very professional and friendly), greets us with a smile, gives us water, then takes our order. (we both look at each other and talk about how hard it must be, to be professional, and take your craft to the next level, yet only to be stuck in an environment such as this)
We’re waiting for our pizza, and enjoying our conversation, when we see ‘the troll host /​server’ walking toward our table — gasp! She arrives at our table — and in a voice that I can only describe as a step sister scolding Cinderella — she tells us, ‘I need you to move and make room for three children I don’t want to sit in the bar’. Stunned, we reluctantly move into the bar. (we ask ourselves, did we really just get asked to move from our table? in 20 years of eating out, we can’t recall ever being moved from a table we were sitting at. wow)
Hoping to salvage this last experience, we get our pizza to go…
So we get home, open the box, and what do we find? A burned pizza!
Absolutely hilarious! We couldn’t have written a better ending to our experiences with Pegasus Pizza on Willamette…

st helens and aegean– both delicious!
cheese bread too!!!

I just noticed the store on Willamette has opened and having been craving Pegasus for while but rarely find myself willing to go campus and it’s December, Oakway isn’t happening! I dropped by this extra convenient location to grab a pizza.
This store is new and very nice inside. I ordered take-​out so I can’t necessarily rate much more than the food and the front counter at this time. The service was fast and friendly, I was able to order and skip on over to the store for the twenty minutes I was quoted.
The pizza was done by the time I returned, which I can’t say was plus or minus twenty minutes, it felt about right though.
I am a huge fan of their pizzas and this one was just as good as I’ve come to expect. I look forward to my next visit now that the location is so close.
