Pizza Quest -- Episode 3: Built with Love…read more The campaign continues. Next stop: Piezon's Pizzeria a neighborhood stronghold with a robust menu that offers plenty of choices without feeling overwhelming. For this session, I picked up: One slice of the Oh Mio Dio One slice of the Mahalo with jalapeños The standout of the encounter was the Oh Mio Dio. The combination of fiery chicken and cream cheese landed exactly where I like my pizza builds to be--bringing the perfect balance of heat and coolness in every bite. The Mahalo took a different path. Built with Canadian bacon, pineapple, and cream cheese, it already offers a unique take on a Hawaiian-style pizza. Adding jalapeños gave it just enough kick to complement the sweet and savory flavors without overwhelming them. I can see why it's my wife's favorite. The menu itself deserves credit. There's a lot to choose from, but it never feels complicated. Whether you're a seasoned adventurer or a first-time visitor, finding your next slice feels straightforward. What stuck with me most, though, was the atmosphere. The walls are filled with stories and adventures drawn by kids, while pizza trays signed by Husker fans cover the space with messages and memories. Everywhere you look, there's evidence that people care about this place and that this place cares about its community. Heart 18 (+4) From children's drawings to signed pizza trays, the entire restaurant feels built on memories, traditions, and community. Wisdom 16 (+3) A menu with plenty of variety that remains easy to navigate and approachable for any adventuring party. Dexterity 17 (+3) The Oh Mio Dio balances heat and coolness with precision, while the jalapeños on the Mahalo add just the right amount of extra movement to the build.

I hadn't been to Clancy's in 10-15 years for a sporting event…read more Back in town visiting, I wanted a good pizza so we decided to go to Clancy's and try theirs. We got great service, and super good pizza! I do remember the huge gathering they get for sports on their many TVs but I didn't know they had such good pizza! They weren't overly noisy busy and still have a nice atmosphere. I recommend you give it a try and I know I will return when back in town!

We held a baby shower for my daughter and ordered off their party menu. We ordered probably more than half of that menu. Nothing but compliments from our friends and family. Service again was amazing. Wonderful experience!!

The Yelp menu says 50 wings is $54.95. I found out the…read morehard way that the 50 wings I got via takeout (20 garlic, 20 buffalo & 10 Kujo hot) was a total of $92.02 I called back later this evening to ask why there was a FORTY dollar discrepancy!? She abruptly told me to never go by the YELP menu even though I would expect the restaurant to not advertise falsely on line through YELP. She said they DON'T have control over what the YELP menu from Oscars states. The only way I even found out about Oscars Restaurant was through YELP. Obviously Oscars is using YELP to advertise but the lady on the phone said it is not their problem. I won't be deleting this negative review unless Oscars makes up for this shocking price difference.

I am dropping my stars because there have been too many instances of my food not being prepared as…read morerequested. And each time it has involved pizza. My standard pizza order is green olive, black olive and mushroom. Often with a side of buffalo sauce and ranch for dipping. When we order they repeat the correct items to us. But more than three times green peppers have been substituted of the green olives. I mean they are green sure but when green peppers makes one ill, they do not want to be surprised when they bite into a piece of pizza. Tonight I order pizza the same way I always do. But when I got home at 630 pm and took the first bite of my first meal of the day it tasted strange and it contained a new strange texture. Looked under the cheese and veggies to find a solid layer of what I believe is sausage. I do not eat pork and if I would have known pork was going to be included I would have not paid $17 for my pizza nor would I have left the restaurant with this inedible pizza. Good luck with your Oscar's orders. I am disappointed in Oscars . When the pizza is made correctly they do a good green olive, black olive and mushroom. So if I do go back I will have to know peel the toppings off my pizza to check that it is correctly made. I have developed the habit of opening the box to make sure there are no green peppers. It's going to be awkward to stand at the register at the bar peeling that topping.

I went with the Tre Carne: fennel sausage, pepperoni, mozzarella, and oregano topped with thinly sliced prosciutto draped over everything. Salty, savory, and seriously satisfying.

The pizzas were delicious, and the portions were HUGE! Each 12-inch pizza comes cut into four massive slices. We had three pizzas for five adults and a kid and still went home with an entire pizza. Honestly, two pizzas probably would have been plenty! The atmosphere was great for getting everyone together and enjoying a meal, and the generous portions made it easy to share with the whole party. Overall, Lyle's was a great stop on our Pizza Quest. Between the food and the substantial portions, it's definitely a place worth checking out if you're looking for pizza to share with family or friends!

Decided to meet a friend for a few drinks on a Saturday afternoon. We started downstairs and…read moreordered the red sangria along with the short rib tacos. The sangria was tasty and refreshing, but the tacos were just okay. The side salad was fresh and enjoyable, but I felt the tacos had a bit too much coleslaw, which overpowered the other flavors. Our waitress let us know it was her first day and that we were her very first table. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and did a great job. After eating, we headed up to the rooftop for a few more drinks. The space is large, has a great atmosphere, and the music was enjoyable. Overall, I would definitely return for drinks and the rooftop experience. While the food wasn't a standout for me, the service and ambiance made for a pleasant afternoon.

Great flavor, didn't upset my stomach (that shit matters!), and paired well with their little pieces of bread. Totally had to smash their Crab Rangoon Cheese Sticks which were rich with flavor! The thai sauce wasn't spicy at all (I'm such a ween). Snagged their Expresso Thai-Tini and it was delish, as well as their Purple Painkiller. Not pictured is one of their fish bowls... Parkings always a bitch in Benson, but if ya go early enough, maybe it won't be so bad! Will definitely be back to eat in the inside versus their patio (which is excellent!) next time.

Didn't have to wait at all for a table, and they have plenty of TVs to keep up with the latest sporting events. Staff was very friendly and offered some great selections, both on the food menu and bar pairings. Favorite was the Hangover burger with the sweet potato fries (~$12-15), and can't go wrong with the sizeable portions. Would definitely order that again, but also would like to try some of the other mentioned items and great photos of the wings/pizza. Look forward to stopping in again next time I'm in town!

We checked our order prior to leaving and they put cheese on his burger. We mentioned it and the bartender took it back. She brought another back and we left. We we got back to the place we were staying at, he noticed that they just scraped the cheese off the burger and gave it back. It still had melted cheese on the bun and extras. We informed them that there was a food allergy. The pizza was good for a quick dinner. The fact that after we told them of an allergy they still gave it to us is unacceptable. So beware. The wait staff and bartender were courteous and understanding. So it's not their fault. It's the kitchen staff.
