Piezon's Pizzeria — Restaurant in Omaha

I know everyone here seems to really like them, but we ate there for the first time last night the service at Piezon's Pizzeria is ridiculous............

...ly amazing! Seriously had one of the single best dining experiences of my life.

We live across town, but my wife loves New York-style pizza and I was feeling like trying some good pizza instead of those convenient, cheap chain stuff we typically get. I remembered hearing lots of great things about them so we hopped in the car and started the trek.

Mama hadn't eaten lunch and was entering a level of hungry that could take a sudden turn for the worse at any moment. There was no room for error.

So to make sure the wait time was slim to none when we got there or audible to the nearest drive-thru, I called to ask a couple questions: can you do half and half pizzas and how busy is dine in? Yes and wide open. Perfect!

We got there already having looked at the menu, but needed something pronto! Solution? Fried Relish Plate with all the fried things. All top notch.

Then the pies....I looked at the menu at home and my wife read it to me in the car. I should have been ready. I wasn't. So I asked the waitress which of the two options she'd recommend. That's when she said four words that changed the whole game!

"We can do quarters."

My food FOMO disappeared. We got two 18" pies and eight different types of pizza. EIGHT.

As they came to the table with the pizzas, the owner, Matt, pointed out that due to a miscommunication, the quarter of the pizza that was cheese for the kids got a little over done so he told me an ENTIRE pizza was in the oven so the kids didn't have to eat the "burnt" slices.

We insisted it was nothing and he didn't have to do that. He insisted it was happening.

While he was at our table, I had asked if he was the owner, he immediately stuck out his hand and introduced himself to both my wife and me. Then I asked if I remembered right that he played for the Huskers although the pizza peel signed " The Pipeline" had already confirmed. My 6 yr old was wide eyed. After Matt walked away, he said "I just got to meet a Husker!" Day made!

When he came out with the replacement pizza, we made sure our three boys thanked him. As if every aspect of our visit wasn't outstanding, Matt asked them, "you know what we do with little boys with good manners around here? We give them ice cream sandwiches."

Like seriously.....who does that?!

Piezon's. Piezon's does that.

Go eat there. Get a carry out. You won't be disappointed.

The good: Pizza by the slice Thin crust that's not too crispy like a cracker, you can fold it.

The bad: The toppings, cheese, and sauce were terrible. I had 5 slices of different specialty pies(Scotty B., Ducci, Sausage Pepper, The Hos, and Slice O'Country). I couldn't pick out a single one that I'd like to have again. Something about their hamburger tastes off, and the pepperoni is basically flavorless. The Sausage Pepper was probably the least bad of the bunch. The red peppers on the Sausage Pepper were good, a note of sweetness and a good bite, but they were too few and far between, and the rest of the slice just couldn't cut it. The cheese is very thin(except on the Scotty B.), if you're looking for a good pull, you won't find it here.

I definitely will NOT be back, and recommend steering clear of the place.

It is one of the very few places in town that I can think of that serves NY style thin crust, so that's a shame, if the thin crust is a big deal for you(and even if it's not), I recommend you try Neapolitan style at Dante(close by at 168th & center, highly recommend the diavolo). If the thin crust isn't that big of a concern for you, I also recommend Roman Coin(144th & F) or Mama's Pizza(also close at 156th & Pacific). If pizza by the slice is important try Zio's(132nd and center, crust isn't quite as thin, but quality is way better).

With so many better quality competitors nearby, I honestly don't know how they've survived this long. Maybe their non-pizza...

I visited Piezon's Pizzeria for lunch today with some friends. First thing first... the service is top notch. Very attentive and polite.

My friend, Jeff, loves the pizza but I was less impressed. Don't get me wrong, the pizza was good.

I know that everyone has their own idea of what constitutes a perfect pizza. Mine is a bit thicker and with more toppings.

I don't really mind pizza with a thin crust butt the pizza was crispy... maybe just on the other side of too crispy? I normally love to eat the crust but at the end of lunch I still had crust on my plate.

When it comes to the toppings, I felt like maybe they were somewhat sparse and a little underwhelming.

I had 2 slices for lunch: One was a single topping of pepperoni while the other was an all meat selection called "The Hos" that features a combination of Canadian Bacon, Hamburger, Sausage, and Pepperoni.

When they were delivered to the table, I thought I had received the wrong order. I thought they brought two slices of pepperoni. I took a photo but it was after I scarfed down the pepperoni slice.

On the other hand, the garlic bread site at $2.99 was really good.

I plan on returning to try different styles / toppings as they do offer a nice variety of toppings.

If you like thin and crispy pizza, this may become your go to for Pizza.

Lunch was $9 for two slices, garlic bread, and a...
