Valentino's — Restaurant in Lincoln

I have known about this Valentino's location since at least 1999. It has always been a small location with very limited seating. The seating area is better for a quick lunch than anything else. I remember the seating area being a little bit bigger. It got smaller after the remodel.

I wouldn't consider myself a loyal customer, but I do periodically visit this location. I ordered a carry out pizza several time recently, and I am never dissatisfied. I have tried both thick and thin crust pizza. One disclaimer that I'd make about Valentino's pizza (not just this location) is the crust is a softer crust even on the thin crust pizza. You might not like it if you prefer a crunchy crust. I consider Valentino's pizza 2nd best in Lincoln.

Where Valentino's is the best is their bread sticks. I have yet to find another restaurant in any category that makes better bread sticks than Valentino's. They have garlic and cinnamon. The cinnamon variety make a...

When was the last time they had award winning pizza, 1970's ? I'll eat a Dominos pizza before a Val's ever again. The pizza tastes terrible and you need to add your own garlic to the bread twists.

Not everything is bad, but it's definitely gotten worse over the years. Somethings changed. No wonder it's not busy anymore. My friends complain about it too, so I know it's just not me ! You need "Improvements" Val's... Doesn't matter, I won't be getting pizza or "Cheese...

I remember this restaurant chain from when I was a kid. I loved it. I try to eat Valentinos whenever I visit Nebraska. I ordered out from this place last night. I followed the recommendations of my friend and got the "Two Sisters" pizza and "Val's Famous Garlic Rolls."

The so called "Famous Garlic Rolls" are literally hamburger buns. I'm not kidding. This is ridiculously ghetto even for Nebraska. They tasted old and I didn't even finish half of one, and I bought two orders. They were actually gross. I still can't believe they are actually hamburger buns. Like the ones you buy from the super market. Hamburger buns. Hamburger. Buns. With sesame...
