Piezano’s

If you like thick crust pizza, this is the place for you. Not much seating or parking, and it always seem to be cold in there but the atmosphere is great and the pizza is good quality.

I did the Sunday lunch buffet with a few friends. At $ 6.99 it was a good deal. Gotta love genuine bacon at the salad bar! There was also cheesy bread.
For pizza they usually try to have two to four types at the lunch buffet. When I first went up there wasn’t much fresh pizza available, but a fresh pepperoni soon came out. The crust is substantial, but not in a good way. It detracts from the toppings. The pepperonis were good, but it might just have been cause that pizza was fresh out of the oven. The other toppings were average.
The table at our booth was a collapsible table with wide legs that were way to wide for the booth. It was strangely difficult to get in and out of the booth.
I’ll probably come back, as it is a nice way to get a quick lunch with a variety of flavors, but probably not for a little while.

Go for the Caesar’s pie. If you’re not into massive portions, split it with a friend. It’s amazing.

Quite a staple of Lincoln — amazing home made, delicious pizza. They do not skimp you on toppings and their food makes your taste buds explode each and every bite.
That being said, I have read other reviews (and heard from other people by word of mouth) declaring that the employees there are rude, snippy, etc. I just want to say, that depends on your definition of «rude.» Would I say our waitress on this visit was overly chipper and constantly smiling? No. BUT — first of all, the pizza that my girlfriend and I ordered took a while, and came out a little bit after our friends’ calzones made their way to the table, and PIEZANO’S COMPED OUR PIZZA! And honestly it wasn’t that long of a wait! We were so impressed!
Another instance that occurred is they had drink prices listed and I was going to order the whole table some pitchers of soda but the waitress just straight-​up told us to order glasses of pop and she would keep refilling them for us for free. There is NO WAY I could say that their customer service is bad after that. If you want rude and snotty service go to Brewsky’s. Piezano’s is A-​okay!
So in summary, keep it up Piezano’s. There’s nothing better than a locally owned restaurant that doesn’t stray from their values and cranks out hundreds of perfect meals every day.

I have heard from people who have lived around here for a while that this is a great place, not so much. The garlic and cheese on top of the calzone was burned. The cheese, although lots of it, was flavorless. How does one manage to not have good cheese in a pizza place?

The Caeser’s Pie is delicious. My wife and I shared a «family» size, which comes out in an 8-​inch Pyrex dish. It is really delicious. I’ve only had their pizza once, and it was good… but salty. I think overall their red sauce tends to be on the salty side. My wife and I want to try the pizza again and order toppings that aren’t salty too and see if that makes a difference. Service was good. It was a bit slow, but they were busy. Prices are very reasonable.

I lost track of how many times I have driven past this place wanting to try their food. On April 23, I finally did it. To my surprise, they had something called potato pizza. I ordered the small size potato pizza with shrimp added and a side of BBQ wings. The food was great and the service was really good.

I wont be going back. I ordered a thin crust for delivery and got a 5 pounds of crust, pizza… First thing i said when i ordered was I wanted a Thin Crust and somehow the lady answering the phone leaves it out…
I dont know about you but I dont want or like eating 5 pounds of cooked dough
so i just ate the toppings off a medium pizza and throwing the rest out…
Twenty bucks for a few pepperonis and i GOT RIPPED OFF…
I RECKON IF YOU ORDER A XLARGE YOURE LOOKING AT 40 BUCKS LOL
should of went to Burger King lolol

Great for Delivery, Good for Take-​out! Great Pizza, lasagne, and the kids pizza is good too. You’ll gets lots of toppings on your pizza, and a generous family sized lasagna.
I’ve only ever has their food to go, therefore I have no comment on the in-​store dining experience.

WORST DINING EXPERIENCE I HAVE EVER HAD.
We got there at 5:50pm tonight (Saturday night). We ordered an ice tea, water, antipasto salad and a 16 inch pepperoni and cream cheese pizza. Water and salad came out fast. But after an ice tea refill, they run out of ice tea. How hard is it to make tea when it’s 6pm on a Saturday night? My husband asked for a diet coke instead and she didn’t bring that out for at least 20 minutes saying she made it but someone stole it.
Our huge salad only had one dressing container, even though the other table’s single serving salad had the exact same size dressing. I’m fine paying the fifty cents for more dressing, but it doesn’t make sense to give me the same size dressing as an individual dinner salad when my salad serves 4.
45 minutes later and well after 6:30, our waitress tells us they dropped our pizza. They will make a new one and it will come quickly. We ask for it to go since it’s been AN HOUR SINCE WE SAT DOWN!
The pizza came about 20 minutes later and it’s a 10 inch! The waitress argues with me saying I ordered a 10 inch. Are you serious? She’s wearing slippers and yoga pants to work. We just wanted to leave but I was so pissed. The waitress didn’t charge us for the ice tea (so generous) but that was the worst $ 20 dining experience I have ever had.
When we got home almost two hours later since we left the house for pizza, the 10 inch pizza wasn’t even that good.

Okay

I have never had a bad experience here. I would give it a 5 star, but it isn’t the classiest of places and lacks a good ambiance, but if you don’t care about that and just have a desire for great pizza, this is the place for you!

One of the best places to get a pizza in Lincoln. A thicker crusted pizza with lots of flavor. If you’re dining in, it is small, but with good service.

Meh, the pizza is nothing special. They have s small parking lot, so you may have to park around the block on the street. Other than that, nothing to write home about.

THIS IS THE BEST PIZZA IN LINCOLN (possibly the world). I’ve had a lot of pizza in a lot of states and even a few different countries, and this is my favorite pizza. It is the best pizza I have ever eaten.
My favorite is the Chicken Tuscany. They have cream cheese on it, which is amazing. I’m not a big fan of pepperoni pizza, but I am at Piezano’s. I have never been disappointed here, and always bring out of town guests to show this local pizza joint off.
A tip… the parking lot is a nightmare. It’s tiny and the spots are all angled oddly so that it’s almost impossible to get out when you leave. If it’s after regular business hours, I usually park in the lot next door, to the east. It’s also easy to get to Piezano’s by bike, because it’s on South street, not far from the Rock Island Trail.

Kind of on the pricey side! Good pizza… service is awesome… worlds tiniest parking lot :-) all in all good stuff :-)

The best pizza I’ve had in Lincoln. Honest. We got the bacon, ham, cream cheese, and potato pizza on their medium crust and it was bomb. I will be returning soon. Soon and often.

Very nice place. Ceasars pie was great. C-​shells was ok, very salty. Portions are large, we could have probably split one entre and would have been plenty.
Service was ok, but not great. Fast but not super friendly.
Bathrooms were pretty gross. Old and dirty and dark. Very gas station like.
Cost was very low. Less than 20 bucks for two with no drinks.
We would come again for sure and try the pizza.

I’ve been sitting here reading the other reviews, and can’t believe what I’m reading. Did I come on a bad night? I got the regular crust meat pizza. The crust at the edge tasted pretty good on its own, but the rest was a mess of mushy nasty provel (cheese of the devil) on half-​cooked dough that tasted like some Lutheran old lady’s «Italian» Sunday hot dish. What is it with Nebraska pizza shops and provel cheese?
(If you don’t know what provel is, it’s basically a cheese blend, similar to American cheese, invented for people in St. Louis that didn’t like stretchy cheese. I’m not making that up.)
I can’t stand provel. It’s tasteless mush. But hey, if you like Valentino’s, you’ll love this place, it’s rather like two Valentino’s pizzas stacked on top of one another and half-​cooked.
Mush!
I read recently that 25% of people are super-​tasters, 50% normal tasters, and 25% non-​tasters. So I’m thinking 25% of pizza eaters will love this place. I’ll let you decide which 25% I’m talking about.

I think this is the best pizza in town hands down. My wife and I go here at least twice a month on minimum.
The pizza is continuously delicious with a sweet sauce, tons of cheese and high quality toppings. They have the option for 3 different crust styles. I’ve tried all 3 and the thin is probably my favorite. It is light and crunchy. The sicilian thick is almost too thick, but still very very good. Their wings are plump, juicy and full of meat and have an italian hot/​spicy flavoring that is out of this world and as unique as it comes. Also, so far the best wings in town and close to the best I’ve ever had.
The staff is always friendly, fast and attentative. Everything in this place works together and they do deliver. The parking lot is a little small and be difficult to get out of. .. just an fyi
