The pizzas are individual, hand-stretched, Neapolitan-style. The crusts are thin, and the…read morewood-fired pizza oven cooks them to perfection. Neapolitan pizza is something like a culinary ancestor to New York pizza, which has more mozzarella cheese and a somewhat sweeter sauce. The Italian salads and entrees are also excellent. The Chef-Owner trained in Italy, and it shows. Service is friendly, competent and responsive. The ambiance is modern, although I think the seating and tabletops are fairly basic. All in all, the pizzas are the stars of the menu, and well worth it as an authentic taste of classic Neapolitan cuisine.

Personally, everything for me was delicious, the loss of a star is for the outrageous 5$ fee for…read moregluten free "crackers" to accompany the whipped ricotta appetizer we had. They tasted just like a tortilla chip though soooo... I think 2$ is more appropriate (menu also had GF at 4$ and then we were charged 5$ at the end in which I thought I'd be getting gluten free bread too but alas, the app was really really good - a friends complaint is that it could use more lemon flavor, I can see that too) I was also charged 4$ for my gluten free pasta, but the dish was so so so good. The creamy sauce was absolutely incredible. I had the shrimp scampi along with a blueberry syrup mocktail and I was completely satisfied. Also had a taste of the blueberry martini which was also very good. My friend had the lasagna which she rated at 3 stars and said it was overcooked but the sauce was good. My sister had the lobster ravioli and it was undercooked, too al dente for her liking and was dissatisfied as it was the most expensive thing on the menu. My sister would go back, my friend would not, and i definitely would. Service was very nice. I just looked at my receipt and there is a charge for "rustic bread" so I'm not sure what that is... did they charge us for both the GF crackers AND the bread that should have been included in the appetizer? That's also not cool.

Four of us. The chicken fettuccine Alfredo was yummy yum. The lasagna was fresh and tasty. The chicken Marsala and the chicken ...idk...the one with artichokes were both very watery and not particularly appetizing, to be honest. Maybe they needed to drain off the pasta better? We have never had this issue before. For us, this is generally a great local date spot. Their catering is also always a win. Lunch specials during the week can't be beaten.

you went to Baylor, you know Poppa Rollo's. This place is pure nostalgia wrapped in mozzarella…read more Every time I walk through the door, I'm instantly back in my college days--ducking into hidden rooms, watching the old Three Stooges clips looping on the TVs, and smelling that glorious mix of melted cheese and crispy crust. The pizza? Unreal. Cheesy, loaded, and unapologetically messy in the best way. The Four Meat Pizza is a carnivore's dream--piled high with every delicious topping they can fit on a crust. And speaking of crust, do yourself a favor and ask for it crispy. That's the magic move. We always start with a dinner salad--mostly to feel like we're doing something healthy before demolishing half a pizza. The service can be a little slow when they're packed, but honestly, it's part of the charm. Grab a drink, soak in the chaos, and wait for greatness. Poppa Rollo's isn't just a pizza joint. It's a Waco landmark. Quirky, delicious, and full of character--just like it's always been.

Better than most in the area but the sauce and cheese did not seem fresh. I will say the crust on the edges was crispy and has seasoning which was good, but the dough was thicker and chewier than I expected. This being said, I will say that if I lived in the area I would absolutely come back to catch a good game, decent pizza, and maybe try some of their many unique craft beers.

I've had the Chicken Parmesan pasta, the Margherita pizza, and the Pepperoni pizza. Each of them was above average. The Chicken Parmesan came with a nicely breaded and cheese-covered piece of chicken with spaghetti and two pieces of garlic toast. It was good, though it could have used a little more red sauce. Pizzas are available as 20" or 14" pies, and certain ones you can get by the slice. The crust is medium thickness, light, with a soft core and a crispy outside. The Margherita was good but I preferred the Pepperoni. Overall, both pizzas were above average. I especially liked the crispiness of the outside of the crust. They also have salads and wings. Dessert consists of cheesecake or funnel cake fries. I haven't tried any of these yet. There is an inside dining area, a bar area, and an outdoor patio area. The inside is shared with Common Grounds coffee shop and Heritage Creamery ice cream shop, a couple of other local favorites.

I am writing this while waiting in line. I will write as much as I can whilst waiting in line. I…read morehave already been here for 20 minutes, and honestly it feels like time is moving in slow motion. It's one of those moments where you start off impatient, checking the time every thirty seconds, thinking the line is going to magically start moving faster just because you're watching it. But then you hit this point where you realize you're stuck here no matter what, so you kind of settle into it. It's like accepting defeat, but in a peaceful way. It's funny how waiting in line exposes how restless I can be. I'm so used to jumping from one thing to the next, always thinking ahead, always planning. But right now all I can do is stand here, shuffle forward an inch every couple of minutes, and come up with random thoughts to keep myself entertained. I keep looking around like something interesting might happen, but everyone else looks just as bored and zoned out as I feel. There's this weird shift that happens when you're stuck waiting: your brain starts drifting to stuff you don't normally slow down enough to think about. Like plans you haven't made yet, conversations you need to have, things you've been putting off, or even just how tired you are. My brain is bouncing between "I hope this line goes faster" and "maybe this is good for me." It's almost like being forced into stillness. I can hear the little hum of people talking, the random coughs, the footsteps sliding on the floor, and it all blends together into this background noise that makes the whole moment feel strangely calm. I'm not doing anything productive, but I'm not wasting time either. I'm just... here. Present. Waiting. And sometimes I think moments like this are actually underrated. You get space to breathe, even if it wasn't your choice. And the longer I stand here, the more I realize how often I rush through my days. I always want to get to the "next thing." But right now there is no next thing. There's just this slow-moving line, and me trying to make something out of a situation that would normally annoy me. Honestly, it's almost therapeutic to just let my thoughts spill out without overthinking anything. It's like I'm giving myself permission to just ramble and process whatever pops into my head. If anything, this might be the most productive part of my day, not because I'm accomplishing anything, but because I'm actually slowing down long enough to check in with myself. And the line still hasn't moved much, but I'm starting to care a little less. Maybe I'll be here another 20 minutes. Maybe longer. But at least I'm turning it into something instead of just staring at the back of someone's head and wishing I was somewhere else.
