Lombardo’s 7th Street Pizza — Restaurant in Grand Haven

I liked this place before we even ate the food! We had a long crazy day and were craving a new pizza place! Called about a half hour before close to ASK and see if we could still order, and they said for pick up yes, but delivery would be too late. Completely understandable! We ordered breadsticks (they put cheese on them, but totally worth it 🤤), a pepperoni bacon, and the pickle pizza. I'm a sucker for some pickle pizza. He didn't even seem upset that we called to order so close to closing, not even a little irritation in his tone of voice. He was so nice about it! THAT is good business. 👍🏼 I went to pick up, told him we really wanted to try something new, and he said we came to the right place. He was not kidding! Chatted about the history of the photos on the wall as they were finishing up our order, and then got home, and we SMASHED! Lombardo's is now our favorite pizza place 😋 🍕 Thank you guys so much for being so kind and so willing, and making the most delicious...

The garlic butter base melted into the dough and the dill sprinkled on top was phenomenal. It came with what tasted like a house made ranch, which was thick and creamy. 10/10, we just found our new go to...

When I arrived to pick up the pizza, initial reaction was very favorable. The atmosphere is a typical small pizza joint - the smells/decor were pleasant and the counter staff attentive and proficient. Got the pizza home and, after taking first bite, I was not impressed. Althought the toppings were good, the sauce had very little flavor and the dough was too sweet. I see that others rated this the best pizza in GH, but from my experience, GH (and WMI in general) is not a great "pizza destination." I was raised outside the Chicago area and grew up eating pizzas where the sauce/toppings had robust flavors and the cheese/crust rounded out a great tasting pie. Unfortunately, Lombardo's did not hit the...
