The search continues – I've been searching for the perfect pizza in the Mpls/St Paul area for years and have yet to find it. It was not found here either. The crust was a little thicker than I like, the cheese was bland, but the toppings were fresh and good. There were actually chunks of tomatoes in the sauce, which is good. If you are in the neighborhood, try it.
User review by aalkins – This is a great little place if you love pizza it always crowded but it worth the the Waite, and would it be crowded if it wasn't good? It has the pest pizza that makes others seem bla and the serves is great once your seated. I would suggest to take it to go on Friday night.
Not a destination Restaurant – If you're in the area, this is a good place to go. Food, service, and atmosphere is slightly above average. It's good, accurately priced, but not worth making a trip to this place.
Fun Little Place – Fat Lorenzo's is a great place to take the kids. The pizza and sandwiches are very good. Service is always excellent. It is amazing how many pizzas go out of the place while you are sitting there waiting for yours. They are busy at times but the food is worth the wait. And their prices are pretty comparable to other good pizza places.
The beer redeems – In general the resturant is cramped, but cozy. The pizza is average, and could be considered a bit cheesy. However, the great selection of beers and the neighborhood atmosphere puts this pizza place in the "reccomended" section. If you're in the south Minneapolis area and need your beer and cheese fix I can't think of a better place. Pizza snobs should look elsewhere.
pizza TERRIBLE here – People do NOT know pizza in this town, thus al the good reviews. Anyway they have other good stuff and great atmosphere. Pizza is WAY OVERRATED and any good piiza reviewer of this place has never had a good pizza. Soggy and greasy and way too cheesy. just disgusting IMOHO.
Just get A bread Stick! – At my work I recommend this restaurant to everyone who comes in from out of town, it is way to close to my office. Then when they say they are going to check it out I always find the time to join them. When my wife and I ride our bikes on the Mpls. chain of lake we stop in frequently. I always suggest starting with a fresh baked Bread stick. It is over 18 inches long and comes with the perfect marinara, caution when eating by yourself this may just fill you up. They have too many quality items on th... read more
You'll Be Glad You Did! – Pleasant setting with "neighborhood" atmosphere. Food was incredible and the friendliness even more so. It's view of Lake Nakomis adds a special touch to its cozy location. The owner, a real "down to earth guy," spent almost an hour talking about his philosphy on his operation, "It's all about people." If you fail to go there, you'll never know the experience you missed.
Finest Pizza in Town – Here's the deal: Awesome pizza, good service. If you plan to eat there you get a great selection of beers and some appetizers. I recommend getting the big cheesy bread-twist deal. NOTE: If they tell you that it will be three dollars to deliver to you, you are TOO FAR AWAY to get fresh pizza. That three dollars isn't for gasoline, it's to discourage you from ordering because you just ain't close enough.
