Great service from very friendly staff. The wings were delicious, and the pizza was okay. We got the chicken Alfredo Pizza and the Pogolino's Clown Special. The flavor isn't "WoW", but it's okay. read more

Our 4th time to stop here on the way to a Cardinals game in The Lou and it's still a 5 star, amazing place. Clean, attentive, friendly place, serving hot fresh delicious Italian food at a fair price. They also have a beautifully lit outdoor dining patio with umbrellas with a nice view of Main Street.. Main Street is fun to walk and explore too. read more

Pogolino's Pizza Place - Spaghetti and Homemade Meatballs. $9.95 Four Cheese Pizza $12.99 - Pizza Near Me - Festus, Missouri

Fast, good pizza always heats up well and its also good cold. Definitely have more choices than just pizza. Good restaurant in town.

Maybe the best pizza I've ever had. And I've had a lot. Family owned business that's a staple for pizza in Festus. Large selection of pizzas and salads to choose from. Bighly recommend. read more

We searched high and low for good pizza in this area, and we heard lots about this spot. Sadly, it did not live up to expectations. Pizza isn't bad but it is wildly greasy and way overpriced. The Italian dishes are bland and just not good enough to return. Dining in isn't bad but your only other option is the pickup window as they don't deliver either. Service takes their time and the inside is decorated in monochromatic colors. read more

Wings are awesome!! Would not recommend the roast beef sandwich on pretzel bun. Eleven +dollars and more if you add cheese...skimpy on the roast beef lunch meat...two ultra thin slices. All bread!!! Thats some expensive pretzel bread!! read more

Excellent pizza and wings. Loved the atmosphere, and the staff was super friendly. I really enjoy eating here.​

We went early evening 4pm. Was seated right away but it took over 20 minutes for any one to come to our table . So many passed by at the other tables next to us. they didn't take drink order until after they came back another 10 minutes later. When they finally came to take drink order we ordered food as well. When Food arrived it was really good pizza & salad. read more

After arriving at the restaurant with our party of 6, we had a little bit of of a wait, and understandably so. The place was packed just like all of the other times we've been here, and for good reason. Once we were seated, we were greeted by our server, Elissa was her name, but I'm not 100% positive on the spelling of her name. Immediately she matched the aura at our table, as if she was part of our group. Her service and attitude was like I'd rarely seen before. I can't say how much joy she brought to our dinner, it's hard to describe but was wonderful to experience. She is the epitome of any customer service role out there. We had salads, pizza, garlic cheese bread, and toasted raviolis. The food was great as expected. Our drinks were always full. Even though we moved from Jefferson County 2 years ago, we will continue to make the trip to enjoy the food and atmosphere, no matter the wait time. We just hope to have Elissa as our server again. read more

Awesome pizza. Generous toppings. Service was fast and very friendly. Family friendly, children are welcome. Family owned and operated. I like supporting local businesses and Mom & Pop places. (if good, of course) read more

I cannot thank the staff enough. I have Celiac and have to have my food prepared a specific way & the staff went ABOVE & BEYOND to ensure I stayed safe and could enjoy dinner out with my family safely. Staff was amazing and understanding . You have a new loyal customer. read more

We will definitely hit this place again. Clean, nice with prompt seating and great service. We got toasted Ravioli and also toasted jalapeño Mac n cheese bites for appetizers and a 14 inch Italian Stallion. Everything had great flavor and ample proportions Kate R Was our server, she kept checking on us. Love this place. Restrooms were clean too. Our bill with 2 beers, iced tea and a gooey butter desert (delicious) was $63.27 read more

Our first visit was probably our last. The one server was a total sweetheart, the other projected a vibe that she was very annoyed to be there which made it awkward to ask for things like a refill on the sodas. (Which had to be asked for...) The pizza tasted good but the portion size/density of pizza for the money was ridiculous. The product is over priced for what you get. read more

Best pizza in town, the service quality is fast & welcoming & the inside is new & modern.

We ordered this for pickup for a work event. Super easy and everyone loved the pizza and salads. the staff was friendly during ordering and pick-up. The pizza was fantastic leftover for breakfast the next morning! We tried a meat lovers, pepperoni, and house style pizza along with a ceasar and house salad. read more

I'm a St. Louis native but now live in Arizona. We came here to celebrate my brother's birthday. It was so good! The HOUSE SALAD with HOUSE dressing is better than PASTA HOUSE!!! My family had 2 very delicious pizzas and wings! The fried mushrooms were amazing as well! read more

The food was so delish! We were visiting our friends who live in Festus. We ordered carryout pizza, wings and salad. Food was delicious, hot and fresh! The house vinaigrette was so delish! Pizza sauce was slightly sweet and so good! The wings were also a hit! Friendly staff in the carryout area! Decently priced for the amount of food we got to feed 6 people! read more

I wanted to like it because it's a locally owned place but the pizza was very doughy and didn't have a lot of taste. And it was very expensive. read more

We had wings, salads, and pizzas. Everything was delicious. The pizza sauce is on the sweeter side which isn't a problem for me but it's something to consider. Our server was very attentive and polite. The place was very clean. From the outside I would have almost passed it but inside it's very nice and has a great neighborhood pizzeria vibe. read more

We haven't had a Pogolino's pizza in over a year. Too expensive. We decided to treat our selves last week. Boy, has this pizza changed. Sausage was supposed to be Italian. This had to be hot sausage cause it was Hot. Thinking about trying someone else. It maybe another year before we do Pogolino's again. read more

Hands down the best wing's anywhere around. I love this place. My family has been frequenting this business for years, they're like family. read more

Delicious, staff is friendly, nicely decorated very cute ! Highly recommend!!!!!!!!!!

Pogolino's Festus. I ILL NEVER GIVE THEM MY BUSINESS AGAIN Anyone who knows me knows how much I have loved Pogolino's since I growing up as a kid in Crystal City and they also know I will cut a MF off quickly that doesn't respect me. I am not sure who is running @Festus Pogolino's these days but they are doing a crappy job and are very rude. I went to Sacred Heart and St. Pius and Pogolinos's used to be our hangout spot after my volleyball and basketball games nearly 30 years ago. I do not even live in Festus anymore and would drive from St. Louis often to order pizza from them. Along with my sisters when they'd come to town we would visit and then go get Pogolino's I and my huge Catholic family, kids, nieces, nephews and cousins all went there. I say WENT because when I relay what happened to me recently that is business gone. Festus Pogolinos customer service has become a joke. So over 2 weeks ago I placed two separate orders for pizzas which I picked up curbside. The man who ran my card said it didn't process when he swiped and that he would need to go in to run the card. That's fine I say. He goes in runs the card brings out the pizzas cool I think until yesterday I check my account and see the 2 orders had processed and were deducted from my account however a 3rd transaction was pending. I call my bank and they tell me that it will fall off in no more than 30 days as long as the restaurant doesn't push it through but stated that I should call Pogolinos's to get an authorization to have the funds released. I immediately call Poges and am told the owner will call me in the morning. She called and this was the conversation Me:thank you for getting back to me I had a transaction for $$ amount on Aug 2 that is pending can you help me with this Pogolinos's: I don't see a third charge so I can't send you an authorization Me: I can send you a screenshot of it along with the processed charges would that help Pogolino's: I can send you a screenshot of what I have and give it to the owner Me: please where should I send this information Pogolino's: I said we can't do anything about it now because I don't see the transaction and this has never happened to anyone before (whole time bad attitude) Me: That's fine could you please have the owner contact me since I am working and can't go back and forth with you. If you cannot help me I don't want to put up with the attitude (the whole time she is yelling over me telling me she can't do anything and that she is working too) Pogolino's: I'm working too and don't have time to deal with this (she puts someone else on the phone yet she is supposed to be the manager) New Pogolino's person: She can't deal with this now she is busy Me: okay well can you give me the number or email address to send my screenshot of the pending charges and have the owner contact me back New Pogolino's person: She already told you we can't do anything about it now so just give me your phone number so the owner can call you Me: you all have my number she just called me, she was supposed to be giving me a contact number or email where I can send the pending transaction information for the owner to look into an authorization (starts shouting over me "we can't do anything right now") New Pogolino's person: you know what you're just prolonging this and I'm not going to do this (she hangs up) 6 minutes of me being yelled at told what they could not do and refusing to accept an email or phone number for me to send the information needed to have my funds released all of which could have been resolved in under a minute by simply saying here is the contact information or I've not done this before let me have the owner look into. For all the years and miles I have put on my car to go to Festus just for Pogolino's pizza I would have expected better. I will give credit where credit is due for the pizzas they serve but this last interaction put a BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH and at this point it's not even the money it's the lack of customer service or appreciation I'd rather eat IMO's Sincerely, A lost customer of over 40 years read more

Yes. I do recommend this pizza place. It is very good and the prices are very reasonable. The atmosphere is very nice and the personnel are also friendly. read more

Wow!! First of all, Shame of me!! I've been a local native and have enjoyed this divine eatery for years and I have never not one time left a review. Probably because I'm to busy enjoying my food to really write anything. If you see any negative reviews remember S&P's lyrics.. opinions are like assholes and everybody got one. Listen I know that being from STL I should be a loyal Imos lover. But this place is just from some reason better. There are two locations that I know of one in Festus(my favorite) and then there is Desoto. Really can't say much about that much location other than its location, every county has their shit hole.. this one is ours. Not sorry. If your gunna gripe about the service, remember this, its horrendous everywhere. Bars and restaurants for some reason are still short staffed. Just like are first responders are. So have an extra drink. Get some more bread or chips and salsa. But definitely get your bottoms into Pogolinos!! Festus. E Main Street. Even got that curbside pick up. read more

The food is a little pricey but it's always good. The service is usually a 7/10 aslong as they aren't super busy then the worse I have experienced was prolly 5/10 but very friendly. read more

Nothing like Pog's! Good beer selection. Clown pizza is amazing. Of all fried pickles I've tried, they win - light and crispy. Their darn ranch is legendary. If you know Pog's, you know. All good! Local favorite for yearrrs. read more

I have been going here since the late '80s. They have the best pizza and salad around! The service is pretty fast. I love the atmosphere. The only bad thing is there aren't many handicap parking spaces. read more

Great pizza! And I mean great! Kinda crowded sometimes and pickups in cars are in the time you get yours so ya got a wait on your hands. Well worth it though. read more

I've been going to "Pog's" (long O sound) since the early 1980's. Every time I go to Crystal City I stop in. Flat out the BEST pizza in the world. Thin crust but not too thin. Cheese, sauce and toppings all the way to the edge. I've eaten pizzas all over the country and in three other countries. No place is better than Pogolino's. read more

Their pizza isn't the best but their salad and cheese bread is to die for. Especially the house salad. If you're a salad person you will love it. It's always clean and has friendly staff. read more

This is the small town favorite. The pizza is thin crust, but not provel or extreme thin so if you want "St. Louis Style" this is not it. This is fresh handmade dough pizza with very good and fresh ingredients. This pizza is the standard I judge all others by. While I admit I have had a few better, but I have paid more for them. Great friendly service and very family oriented feeling here. Good salads are served here. This is the first mom and pop place that I made me true fan. read more

Pizza tastes fresh, oven-baked, homemade, covered with quality ingredients. Loads of toppings in every bite! Thin crust, dough is flavorless, but nice texture as it's fresh from the oven and tastes wholesome, not greasy at all. I wish the crust had some butter or garlic flavor. High value at a good price. You won't spend too much, and it's way tastier than chain delivery pizza. The BBQ sauce base tastes awesome! The chicken and Canadian bacon are quality toppings. Atmosphere is sorely lacking. The table settings and decor are so cheap and don't live up to the quality of the fresh, flavorful food. Beer selection is poor. A few domestics, and Blue Moon for "variety" ...just Blue Moon. We wanted salad before the meal, but nothing on menu looked worth ordering. Just the typical, bare minimum garden/Caesar salads-- nothing sounded special or inspired. The dinner plates are silly small! I was laughing. No grown-up sized plates?? Service and speed were wonderful, even though the place was packed, we felt well taken care of. There were several HUGE groups of people there, so it's a perfect place for parties. Waitress warned us that the wait for food would be 10 minutes longer than normal because of the big groups there, but we didn't feel like we waited very long at all for pizza to come out. Location is nice since you can walk to shops and bars on Main Street. The logo (a clown on a pogo stick) and bowls of free cheap candy at the register made this place feel more like a family restaurant than a nice date place, even though the quality of the food is definitely date-worthy! We will definitely be back for more fresh, flavorful pizza! (Not for the atmosphere or beer or salad) read more

Traditional pizza places other that pizza Hut or those child traps like Chuck e cheese, are a rare thing to find, but it's available here. Checking this place out on a whim was a great decision in itself. It doesn't denote that it's a pizza place, but was delighted to find out it was. A great selection of pizzas fills the menu, including a meat lovers specialty pizza. You might have to wait a little for your food, but in the end it's worth it. Located on main street in Festus, surrounded by antique shops, it's definitely a surprise worth checking out. Do yourself a flavor, you will be glad you did read more
