    Pepperoni 'za for dinner last night for a full-on Friday night comfort food/nostalgia throwback. I normally get one of their delish fancier pizza options, but this simple pep did not disappoint! Next time I might go with extra toasted or a pizza triangle cut because the middle squares were a bit floppy (but I'm an outside/crust lover myself). 20 mins tops for a pickup order around 6pm and it was almost too hot to eat when we got it home. Legit such good pizza! Always friendly, too.

    What a fantastic way to end our night. My friends wanted to see Beetlejuice and then get pizza after the movie. We never knew of this place, and when it popped up, we agreed to check it out. Their pizza was amazingly delicious. My friends got a veggie pizza, one got pepperoni and cheese, and I got easy on the cheese with double pepperoni. I highly recommend this place. Great staff and great food.

    Two distinct pizzas but one happy camper! In trying the spinach artichoke pizza (olive oil base; chicken) and the heartland pizza (red sauce; pepperoni/bacon), I can say that Brenz is a Jack of All Trades in the pizza game. 22 pizzas + a build your own option means that you're bound to find something that you like. Good crust and generous toppings. The only downside might be from a value perspective. At the 12 inch size, a lot of the selections were $19. If that doesn't intimidate you, a good pizza awaits.

    The hot honey and sausage marry together so well to make the perfect combo on a pizza. Delivery is available!

    Bomb!!!!!!!!!! So amazing and the pizza is more than pizza. It's magic in slices!!! The lord knows what he was doing!!!!

    Holy pizza!!! This was so delicious. So cheesy and saucy. Toppings to pizza were the perfect ratio and the sauce was sweeter without going over board. I'll be making this a regular stop!!

    In the search to find my favorite pizza joint in Columbus, I gave Brenz a try. They are currently delivery or take out only, so I called ahead and placed an order for take out. The online menu offers a good selection of specialty pizzas, and at the bottom talks about a seasonal pizza deemed 'The Local'. The Local is no longer a seasonal pizza, but rather two additional pizzas, called 'The Heartland' and 'Midwest Special' that are now permanent selections on the menu (although not listed on the website). I ended up ordering an 8" Heartland pizza -- red sauce, cheese, pepperoni, bacon, balsamic caramelized onions, roasted red peppers topped with shaved parmesan and fresh basil. Interestingly, the prices are as follows: 8" ($7.99), 12" ($15.79), 14" ($19.49), 16" ($23.49). I did a double take when I first saw this -- you can get two 8" pizzas for essentially the same price as one 12". Not sure how that makes sense, but alright! Anyways, after I placed my order I was told it would be ready in 15-20 minutes. I showed up right at 20 minutes to find that my pizza hadn't even been started yet -- talk about disappointing. I understand restaurants are short staffed, but I would have been fine if they told me it would take 35-40 minutes -- I would have just stayed at home longer. So after paying and waiting for another 15 minutes in the store, I finally had my take out pizza. Now on to the pizza. The toppings gave it a good flavor, especially the balsamic onions. However, I was not a fan of the crust and that's strictly personal preference. I tend to favor a thinner crust, and Brenz crust is a bit thicker than a traditional hand tossed pie. During my wait, I watched the pizzas run through the conveyer oven and noticed that during cooking, the crust rises so much that the employees have a tool (think gardening hand rake attached to a long wooden pole) that they stick in through the side of the conveyer to prick at the crust and let the air out so that is falls. Overall, average pizza combined with the extra wait time gives this joint 2 stars in my book.

    Wow!! I was deciding between the soup shop two doors down and this pizza shop and I'm sooooo happy with my choice. I'm sure soup would have been delicious but holy cats was this salad and pizza satisfying! And the customer service here is super. The staff are genuine, attentive, and enthusiastic. I loved my House salad with an incredibly good fresh Italian dressing, which I'm told is made in house. Even the small size was so generous! Loaded with fresh greens, veggies, and croutons. Only $3.99! I also ordered an 8-inch specialty pizza, which I'm loving. I'll take half home. These are 4 specialty options that are vegetarian, plus you can build your own with the 30+ topping options!! Loved this place!!

    Easy to order online and they had a lot of staff working! Cheese pizza and cheese bread was good. Ranch was made in house and our daughter thought it was the best! I also bought a peanut butter cookie while I was waiting. Cookies are big, soft, and yummy. Location is just off the Hamilton exit of 161. There are a few stools along the front window, but no other seating. Will definitely be back.

    8 inch cheese pizza

    I ordered online and it says 20 minutes for takeout. I arrived at 20 minutes exactly and it was all ready to go! Ordering online was very easy around 1pm. I ordered 2 of the 8 inch cheese pizzas and they tasted great! The sauce, crust, and cheese all combines together for a great pizza. Each 8 inch was around $7.50 which seems fair ... but I felt like I was not completely full after an 8 inch so that's why I think I wish it were more filling or the 8 inch costed less. If I upgrade to the 12 inch for $13, I'm curious if I'd be full / if it's more financially worth it. All in, the pizza did taste wonderful and it's up there in favorite pizzas in the area! The only reason I'm not at 5 stars is the bank for your buck but still a quality pizza and I will definitely return.

    So glad I decided to try this spot. The pizzas and wings are always fresh and delicious and ingredients are quality! The crust is super yummy and they have always followed any notes and included extra sauces which I appreciate. I recommend trying their pepperoni or a white pizza with ranch or garlic butter base. They haven't missed yet for me!

    Ask the Community - Brenz Pizza Co. Columbus

    Is this take out only or is dine in available?

    Dine-in, take-out, and delivery. Thanks for your interest. This applies to our store in Lennox near campus. Our store in Dublin has a few seats but is primarily take-out and delivery.

    Any plans on carrying beer? Hate to say but when we're our out looking for a pie, not having beer is always a deal breaker.... THANKS!

    No plans. All of our stores are on the edges of university campuses and adding beer to that equation is something we are not willing to do. Thanks for your interest in Brenz.

    Do you serve slices at lunch?

    Jen, the smallest pizza we serve is our 8" Personal. Thanks for your interest in Brenz.

    Is the crust homemade?

    Absolutely! We make fresh dough every day (sometimes multiple times a day) and let the crust proof for 24-48 hrs. The recipe is ours and we use it for our sub buns and CinnaBrenz dessert bites.

    Tried The Grateful Dave (turkey with alfalfa sprouts and avocado) and The Original Dave (Italian…read moresub). Worth the stop! Their Dave's sauce is interesting - very vinegar forward but it works. I really liked it! Employee was super hospitable and made sure we were satisfied with our order. I would recommend trying it out if you haven't.

    Dave's Cosmic %hit Subs... Where do you want me to start?…read more We're in town for the CBUS Blue Jackets and Door Dashed this bull %hit to our ABnB. To start, we ordered at 6:27, our Door Dasher picked up the food at 6:36, but it wasn't delivered until 8:57... Completely unacceptable. Granted the extremely late delivery wasn't the restaurant's fault (necessarily)... However, because they use Door Dash for delivery, they're ultimately responsible by proxy. Add in that the delivery driver spoke no English, tried to kick our English Staffy who ran out whilst smiling to say "hi" (if you know anything about Staffy's, you know they love people and don't have a mean bone in their body), our food was cold because it was delivered 1.5 hours late, and I was about to lose my flipping mind. Now onto the food... These were quite honestly some of the worst subs we've ever had. Subway is miles ahead of this hot garbage, and it's not remotely close. The food was $50 for two puny half filled subs, inedible coleslaw (absolutely disgusting), a pickle, and a GF cookie (that was not delivered). Now onto the really bad part... Within 30 minutes of eating this trash, both my wife and I had to run for the toilet (I'll leave it at that). Bottom line... Screw this place. PS - If I ever run into Cosmic Dave, he's going to get a piece of my mind for charging people $ for this crap.

I tried Da' Meatball and since it was a la carte, I also ordered two Spicy Gyro Rolls with Hotziki dipping sauce. Wow! Watching them cook on Triple D and tasting the food for myself is a whole different experience than what I was expecting. Sure, the food looks good and it's interesting to even toss the marinara on the griddle, but it's mind-blowing in action! It's not a huge restaurant, but it is comfortable. I had a great conversation with a former Air Force Officer turned Firefighter. Bonus: I got to meet Andrew from the show and tell him why I was there! Don't forget about Loops; you have to give them a try!

    I am from Chicago so I KNOW Italian beef. Loops "claims"…read morethey make Chicago style Italian beef but it's not true. 1) the bread is all wrong. They use like sub sandwich bread. You're supposed to use Italian bread which is slightly crusty outside and a little chewy inside. They literally just use sandwich bread shaped into a sub and it just soaks up the juice and is mush. 2) the Italian beef should be slow roasted and shaved paper thin and fall apart. The one I had was thick and tough. Was like a roast beef sandwich with warm juice on it. 3) giardinara completely wrong as well Anyways like I said, I was HIGHLY disappointed at Loops. 100% NOT Chicago Italian beef. Sorry.

He's the one who suggested Wario's Way for the steak sandwich last time. The restaurant was pretty full and the patio had many happy patrons! This sandwich is a foot long and nearly 4" wide! The first thing I smell when I open up the halves is the pickle of homemade giardinera, solid amount of lunch meat and nice crisp from the shreduce (iceberg lettuce) and the relish. Be ready to unhinge your jaw to eat this sandwich! This is not something you can eat and drive at the same time, it's messy, but that's what makes it delicious.

A staff member helped me right away. I ordered the steak sandwich wario's way and the house spuds. It's a pretty hefty sandwich! My only issue was the cheese whiz. This is the typical way to eat Philly cheesesteaks, but I didn't love the flavor. Not a bad thing! Really just a preference thing! I've had cheesesteaks with provolone which is more of the flavor profile I'm looking for. The house spuds were phenomenal! Well seasoned, crunchy and it came with a nice savory mustard-like sauce. Seems like some of the other sandwiches are popular too. I would be interested in trying those out next time. They were featured in diners, drive ins, and dives. So I'm happy we have an excellent sandwich shop like this in town!
