4th try here and the only time it was decent was about a month ago. Tonight, our 4th visit/order, we ordered a GF pizza. Except for the burnt top edge, it was doughy & raw, of which you could taste through the middle up to burnt edges. The sauce wasnt good- it taste like cheap canned sauce plus it left a horrid after-taste in your mouth. The cheese was an "off " blend which was something like "dirty rotten sock smell." Our 1st visit - was a couple weeks after Grand opening. It was bad. They ran out of most items. We paid for GF pizza, calzones and regular pizza. Both pizzas had the same issue as tonight. They remade regular pizza but ran out of GF crust. We ate there instead of carry out. We figured all issues were due to the "Grand Opening ", apparently not if you must eat GF. We werent offered a partial discount for issue. We only went to Grand Opening for My daughter who Has to eat GF and she ended up watching us eat because they even ran out of salad that night. 3rd experience was less than 2 weeks ago ordering spaghetti and meatballs Wed been craving spaghetti and meatballs. When the order was placed they should have told us that this dish resembles more of a goulash rather than spaghetti because they use macaroni noodles instead. We even stated wed never ordered the pasta there. I do admit we got a couple nice sized meatballs. The major problem with those were the meatball were dry, over cooked and lacked sauce. Lacking sauce was the theme throughout this entire dish. Everyone kept asking why it had little-to-no sauce other than the scantest amount acting like glue forming a solid chunk of macaroni noodles- Yuck, over baked and dry, dry, dry! Tonight its too late to call for replacement or money back due to early closing hours so were going to have to throw this away, order from elsewhere or not eat pizza tonight. I attempted to eat a slice because we were starving. My daughter just couldnt and she must eat gF, she only got 2 bites down and the entire remaining pizza was trashed! Couldnt even try to bake it longer due to burnt tops. Which you could taste up to an inch from edge of pizza. Unfortunately, I know I wont be able to convince my daughter to ever try it again. 2nd visit, was a month ago, which went much better because we went without anyone ordering gluten-free or pastas. We had a pizza similar to a "Supreme pizza" with everything on it. That was so much better of a pizza in taste, quality, you name it! This was the best experience so far but for as many dissatisfied and disappointed hungry people Weve taken there, its just embarrassing. Let alone a waste of money. I really wanted to give you guys more than one star and was going to until the last two episodes. Im sure youll find this hard to believe, but I dont usually take the time to write reviews let alone good or bad reviews! So that should tell you something. Come on guys get it together!!

I stopped at this place while traveling across state on the I-80. Let me start by saying I lived in Italy for a few years so I have extremely high standards for pizza. Four stars for fitting my need while traveling, but as for the pizza and experience it would probably be three. Pizza: I ordered the scarface and honestly it tasted like cheap spaghetti on pizza dough. Dough/crust: The dough/crust was very bland. True Italian pizza is full of flavor for every ingredient. It is to the point where eating any single item on the pizza is an amazing experience in itself. The crust consistency was okay, not too light or heavy, but the dough had absolutely zero taste. I think it would help to add a little more salt to the recipe. Toppings: They were just okay, nothing special. I liked the sausage but it was just sausage, not a magical flavor experience in your mouth. It did taste fresh but I wasnt crazy about the quality. Sauce: This killed it for me. It tasted like simple canned tomatoes, and combined with the toppings it seemed like I was eating spaghetti on pizza dough. The sauce was slightly sweet and the flavors didnt blend well for me. Cheese: Again it wasnt anything special or memorable. Brick oven taste: Non existent. No smoky or flame flavor. No different than cooking something in my oven at home. Service: Pretty good service. The waitresses were there when I needed them and didnt bug me. Super friendly waitresses and cooks. Price: Higher than I expected, but I didnt finish my 10" pizza if you split it between two it is more reasonable. Overall: I was so sick of fast food and wanted something different, and I had a great overall experience. I loved the ambiance and staff, the only other thing you should know is it probably a full hour for me to order a single 10" pizza and depart. Like i said Im picky with my pizza so that is 3/5, but overall experience was 4/5.

We came and were seated relatively promptly, service staff was pleasant enough. Took awhile for us to make up our mind what to order, so we ordered an appetizer. When we made up our mind the server came back out and told us they were out. We immediately ordered our second choice and were told they were out of that as well. Third choice-out. Well, try telling us what you DO have. We pretty much have everything, but what you ordered. Were out of pulled pork. Four of their pizzas have pulled pork on them and our first choice did not even include pulled pork, so have no idea what made that a no-go. At least five pizzas unavailable is not everything and we should have been informed WHEN were seated, BEFORE we ordered an appetizer. We had the appetizer, which was good, and left.

Found this cute little place on our way home from a family reunion. I had an arugula salad with figs, pistachios, shaved Parmesan drizzles with a balsamic reduction. For my dinner I ordered "The Mookie" pizza and my son had the "Good Will Hunting" pizza. The good will hunting pizza had a garlic cream sauce base, bbq pork, bourbon soaked apples and a southern Carolina bbq sauce sizzled over top and then had pretzels sprinkled all over. So weird it was good! All the items we ordered were served up fast and made from quality ingredients. Fabulous sausage! We pass by Kearney several times a year and I will most definitely come back here again!

We ordered an XL cheese pizza here and got it for take out and when we got home and opened it it was burnt! So we called and told them it was burnt and they were very rude and asked if we could bring it back. When we did she said that it cooks that way because it has no toppings. Now I am from Omaha so I dont eat here on the daily but when I come to Kearney I like this place and have had it before and only get cheese and it does not cook that way. They then proceeded to make us a new one and that is it! Nothing else which is ridiculous since we had to drive all the way back and then wait 20 minutes for a new one.
