I've been there twice in the past week, and their food is yummy! I also said that I'd post some photos, and here they are.
The owner opened his restaurant where the old "Supreme" Pizza used to be. I'll be frank -- I only ever visited that place once before because it actively didn't live up to it's name. Previously, the food was mediocre at best (which is saying something, because it's hard to mess up pizza!) and the building always looked dirty to me. The new owner knew he had his work cut out for him when he began renting and renovating this location.
Here's the good news: This place is nice and clean, and the food is good. I've had two of their pizzas now, and it reminds me of having Pesaro's Pizza back...you know, a good, solid neighborhood eatery. I love that Oasis even has eat-in space that I actually want to sit down at. That gives them one-up on Pesaro's!
Also, the cheesesteak was tasty, and he has a hibiscus drink that I liked a lot. Very sweet, but also nonstandard. Give it a try!
I hope the neighborhood supports the owner. He brings good energy to Lawrenceville and it's a Black-owned business that, in both food offered and culture, makes up for something that's been missing for years here.
Go get a pizza (or a hoagie, or a gyro, or a salad...) from Oasis Restaurant and tell them that the friendly repeat customer from around the...
Read moreThis place is incredible. I tell everyone about it. The food is so yummy and the staff is really great!! I feel very happy to spend my money here as the staff is lovely and the food is so good. Get the chicken ranchero!! Mmmm!!!
The pepperoni pizza is really tasty (so long as you're not a wild foodie. Im not super impressed easily either tho so hopefully you'll like it too). The basic side salad I just ordered is delicious too -- their italian house dressing is actually chefs kiss. The chicken ranchero hoagies is great too! Personally Id advise against the Philly cheesesteak but this is Pittsburgh so! Last time we got their fries and they were really yummy too. Everything is really good sizes too and good prices -- so make sure you tip the staff more if you can!
10/10. Idk why it's not packed here all the time!...
Read moreBy far the worst food I've ever had. Got the chicken ranchero sub and the bread was the best part. N ever that was like biting into a brick. The lousy 2 slices of chicken was as thin as lunch meat and the bun is thick. Chicken was so thin so therefore was so dry as if I was chewing on rubber. Gave me about n entire onion on my sub. The fried zucchini was soggy and under cooked, along with the mozzarella sticks. Soo disappointed I lost $43.00 on some straight trash. Literally wasted all my money because I didn't even eat anything. Never again. If you're like any other person who works hard for your money than stay away from this place. Definitely rip offs. Can't believe someone has pride n thinks this costumer service is ok. Terrible. Just...
