If you are in the Houghton Lake area, you must stop at Buccillis. Excellent pizza options with yummy salads and breads to go with it. They have the best ranch! They offer pickup and delivery options! read more

The service my family and I received was less than good. We walked into the restaurant and told the host that we had six people. Emily is her name. She rolled her eyes and groaned like we were inconveniencing her. The restaurant was not full, and we didn't have a lot of people. I understand being upset but the amount of attitude was ridiculous. read more

We were seated right away and our waitress came over promptly to take drink orders and then our food order. She repeated everything back to us and headed off. About 10-15 minutes later, she returned and said she thought she might have forgotten to put in one of our pizzas. We reminded her of the order, she acknowledged it, and said it would just be "a little later." Well -- an hour later, we were still waiting. Our kids were melting down, everyone was starving, and still no pizza. Worse than the delay was the complete lack of communication. When we asked our waitress for an update, her response was: "I have no idea how long." No apology, no sense of urgency. The manager was nowhere to be found -- apparently hiding in the kitchen. At no point did anyone come over to acknowledge the ridiculous wait, apologize sincerely, or offer any kind of compensation. It felt like they were prioritizing takeout orders over people actually dining in the restaurant, which made the experience even more frustrating. When my husband finally complained, we still didn't get much of a response. By the time the food arrived, we were all exhausted and cranky. To be fair, the food was good -- but absolutely not worth the experience. We will not be back. With a little bit of care, communication, and accountability, this could've been handled so much better. read more

Pizza is fabulous. The wait is extremely long tho. Sometimes waiting 1.5 hours to receive your food! They take too many "to go" Orders which causes dining-inn ppl to have to wait. Dining-inn ppl should get priority. Need to have better turn around for dining inn! read more

We went here a couple days ago while we were camping. They have the BEST ranch dressing ever made! The cheese sticks were awesome and we ordered a small pizza and it was delicious! Our server Brent waited on our table! He was very nice and really took care of us. The restaurant is huge inside. We went at dinner time so there were a lot of people, but we got seated right away. They have a bar on the right when you walk in which is a decent size. Everyone who was working this past Saturday were very friendly especially Brent! He really took great care of us even though they were swamped! The ambiance was nice and bathrooms were clean. When we come back to Houghton Lake, we will definitely get pizza from here again and especially the Ranch dressing! read more

Full disclosure, I am an idiot. Yep, that's right. Silly me went to G's pizza (now closed) for years whenever in Houghton Lake. We literally went there every single time. It's gone, we are hungry and I am gluten free. Finding gluten free options in Northern Michigan is not easy. My search brings me to Buccilli's. Turns out they have gluten free pizza. Turns out their pizza is AMAZING. Also Turns out they only have the sweetest nicest staff working there. Everything about our dining experience was really great. The host was super friendly and we were seated very quickly at a booth by the bar. Our server was excellent, asked if we were new, made some recommendations and checked on us frequently. I actually tried the gluten free pizza the way our server said she likes, without red sauce. I never go without red sauce...proof again that I am an idiot because this garlic olive oil was amazing. Probably top 5 gluten free pizzas I have ever had, and I've tried a lot. My husband enjoyed his chicken ranch pizza full of gluten and we shared an antipasto salad that was very tasty as well. Definitely our new go to spot when in town. read more

Salads are fresh and the GF pizza is on point! They have a salad bar that is OK (I prefer the house side salad), a cute little bar and you rarely have to wait for a table. Service is incredibly important to me and the ladies here are always on top of it. Love it! read more

Service and Food is excellent!! Amy ( bartender) has been around for years and you know that by the way she makes you feel!!! This is the Best Pizza Place around Houghton Lake Period!! read more

Great customer service. Good pizza. Great bleu cheese. Hostess was very pleasant. I liked the cheese pull bread. read more

Very very good pizza. When they ask you do you want fresh mushrooms or canned mushrooms DAH. Fresh. Nobody asks that. Bartenders are fabulous and service is outstanding read more

The pizza had decent flavor, but was way underdone and we requested that it be browned on top. The center of the top was not even warm and cheese was barely melted. The crust in the middle of the pizza was not done all the way through, a little dough. The service was good and the place was nice and it was clean. read more

Hands down the best pizza in Houghton Lake! Their salad bar is excellent as well. The service is great and the general ambiance is pleasant and home town despite being HL being a tourist town. As a local this is my 1# go to! read more

It's our tradition to stop by and grab some pizza whenever we are in town. Hands down best pizza around with good prices. If their pizza buffet opens back up 10/10 recommend! read more

Please dine with caution. Went here for lunch with my stepmother yesterday and ordered a personal pizza and mozzarella sticks. Wasn't feeling well later, lots of stomach cramping and trips to the restroom. She noticed later that night and now this morning that she is also having bad stomach problems. We had taken the leftovers home (before we realized the pizza was an issue) and my baby brother ate some last night and is now also feeling sick! Would not recommend read more

Great food and great service. We love to come here for pizza. Mandy was our server, and she was awesome. It is worth the 20-minute drive for us to eat. read more

Had take out a few times while visiting the area; pizza was just OK. Decided to eat in and they were slammed. Pick up line was practically out the door and dine in was full; but understandable as it was Labor Day weekend but here is what earned them 2 stars; the greeter or hostess seems to hates her job and therefore is very unwelcoming. She didn't smile or welcome us in, she just had her head in her hand and immediately said, it's an hour and a half wait. When I turned to ask my friend if they wanted to wait or go, she sighs, loud enough for us to hear, and asks us to move while decide. It took literally 5 seconds for me to consult with my friend. I understand a busy restaurant and tourists but the hostess is the face of the business and we were put off by her attitude. We left and went to Shenanigans and received friendly professional service and one heck of an amazing pizza there. read more

Been going here year after year whenever we come to town. Fantastic pizza. Small little family place with friendly smiles and amazing aroma. Just recent we got the bbq chicken pizza, the chicken herb, a cheesy delight with ham and onion, and a half cheese half beef and pineapple. All the pizzas were so yummy and the crust is the perfect texture! read more

I've Been going to Buccillis For 30+ years Ever Since I was a Houghton lake BOBCAT..(Football) and Honestly have to Say NEVER Once Ever had 1 complaint..The #1 pizzeria in Michigan Hands Down.!!! Fantastic Service and Atmosphere read more

Barbecue chicken pizza is delish. Got pepperoni and cheese and bread sticks for the kids, and they enjoyed.

We had an amazing time at Buccilli's Pizza! My family and I visited this restaurant for dinner, and let me just say the experience was immaculate. We had a respectful young man tend to our table and he was extremely patient with us, as we were a large group. My son, who has a stutter, wanted to order for himself, and he was extremely kind to him even though my son took over two minutes to order. The pizza was delicious and so were the "Cilly Sticks." I have never experienced ranch this delicious before in my life. Let's just say there were no leftovers! Thank you Bucilli's pizza for making my family feel welcome and treating us like royalty! We will definitely be coming back to this business for all of our pizza needs. -Debbie read more

Excellent food 7 days a week! Of all the places to eat in town this place is definitely number one!!! Everything on the menu is excellent.

Buccilii's has come to be one of my favorite pizza places. Maybe it's because it's nostalgic, maybe it's because it truly is amazing ... let's just say it's a combination of both! The first time I ever visited Houghton Lake, my boyfriend insisted we get Buccilli's. I'm never one to turn down pizza, so I was pretty pumped. He spoke highly of the establishment and I was no disappointed! I've only tried the cheese and pepperoni pizza, but I'm sure everything else is amazing as well! I love how small and crisp the pepperoni's are. Perfection! A small pizza is about 6 pieces. We stopped in on a Saturday night and the wait time was reasonable. Service was outstanding and welcoming. The pizza was still very hot when we ate it 20 minutes later! Can't wait to come back over the summer! read more

With limited options in the area this place will do just fine. Sauce is traditional somewhere between sweet and savory. The crust is thick but not quite Chicago style deep dish thick. The sausage/pepperoni amounts were slightly above average. The cheese ratio was average. It is triangular cut. Like I said this place will do just fine for pizza. We also had an antipasto salad which was fresh and old quality meat and cheese. I liked how the pepperoncini's were diced. If I am around here again I would order from this place. read more

The pizza and cannoli were delicious. The service was fast and friendly. We'll definitely be back!

Pizza was just OK. Breadsticks were good. My chicken sub was 1/2 the size of a Subway 6" sub and I paid $9.50!!! Added olives for $.75 and there was literally 4 olives on the whole sub. Sub wasn't edible. Dry and gross. Pic shows 1/2 of sub. Fed it to the dogs. read more

Pizza is delicious. Nice flavor the sauce and all the ingredients seem of high quality.

Ordered pizza and silly sticks to go. The Silly sticks were amazing and were the first thing to be eaten. Everyone loved them, so good. Should have bought two orders. Their pizza was also very good. If there was a spot like this in metro Detroit it would become our regular pizza joint. Great pizza find! read more

Best pizza in the Houghton Lake area. Love that you can order online for carry out. We have never been disappointed with Buccilli's. Today's pizza was a build your own with Pepperoni, mushrooms, pepper rings, and pineapple. There was no skimping on items. The mozzarella is nice and gooey--good quality. The staff are always friendly and smiling. read more

Good food no matter what I get service is great will always get pizza Chinese could have different stuff but good

Ate at the restaurant. Waited over two hours for pizza. And then they told us they didn't have any idea how much longer it would be. They said the online orders got everything screwed up and they couldn't give us even an estimate on how much longer. Ended up canceling our pizza order. The manager who has worked there for a long time was indifferent and could care less. read more

Great Pizza, breadsticks and cheese sticks. I will be back. Open late too. One of the only family restaurants in town open past 9 pm. read more

Buccilli's Pizza - Awesome Food - Pizza Near Me - Houghton Lake, Michigan

Pizza is fine, but they DON'T get another dime from me until they get rid of that surprise .95 fee at checkout. Pure BS. Also, I don't like companies that pull that sneaky theft. There is even a BS name for the fee, like it is supposed to make me feel OK about getting unethically nickel and dimed when I am not expecting it. read more

So our family was at a hotel local to Buccilli's and needed dinner. As we enjoyed ourselves in the pool, we asked some locals what they would recommend and all four of them said Buccilli's without skipping a beat! I knew I had to give them a try. So we ordered delivery to our hotel and were not disappointed. The kids and husband loved their pizza and my wings were spot on!! I apologize as my summer has been super busy and this post is in retrospect so the details aren't my typical but I give them 5 stars for service, friendliness, timeliness, hot food cooked to perfection. I would definitely give them a try! read more

They have very good food especially their silly stix. They have a nice salad bar with pizza and pasta on it.
