Wow!!!! If you like pizza this is the place. The Dough is awesome. The sauce is on point. Toppings are great. I asked for extra sauce and man did they deliver. Fast delivery as well. Worth it. read more

Great food great service ordered a bunch of pizzas for work and they had them hot and ready!!

Best deep dish pizza in the valley! Absolutely our favorite place to go!! Always fresh ingredients and homemade sauces!

This out of the way place is a little gem. Our pizza was amazing, and the staff are great.

Stuc's is easily the best pizza in the Fox Valley. I recently ordered identical pizzas from Stuc's on College and Luigi's on North Ballard. No comparison! Stuc's crust and sauce are top notch. Luigi seemed so bland and lacking even salt. staff at both are very friendly, but I give the edge to Stucs. I watched a staffer bag up a couple of Carmelitas, and he checked them, put one aside, and took two perfect ones. Quality is important to them, and everyone is eager to help you. A single slice of Mighty Meng made my whole dinner, yum. If you haven't been to Stuc's yet, do yourself a favor and go. You will be glad you did. ​ read more

I really wanted to love this deep dish pizza. I found it to be so sweet it was distracting. The slogan reads, "good mood food," if mood is altered by sugar sauce this is the place. read more

Delivery was faster than the time they told us, food was piping hot, this pizza was delicious! Sauce was sweet, which is a different style then I am used to, but it goes well with all the toppings! The garlic cheese bread was also tasty. read more

We have heard great things about this place and wanted to give it a try. The pizza turned out phenomenal but the sandwich was subpar. When we went we were the only ones in the entire place sitting down. Anyways, great pizza with a sweet sauce and we will be back! read more

We didn't hate this pizza - but we didn't like it either. Tried the deep dish (having savored many a deep dish pizza in Chicago) and the gluten-free (since we had no choice). Neither pizza made us run back for more. In fact, we ended up throwing away half of each pizza. Sad but ... we'll have to search elsewhere for great pizza in Appleton. read more

The "Good Mood Food" was a slogan in a string of Arby's commercials a while back, but Appleton residents may recognize it better from the sign of a local pizza joint, specializing in Chicago-style deep dish. Now, the sing-songy phrase itself is vague and doesn't tell me anything about the food itself, but it DOES rhyme and sometimes that's enough to grab your attention. However, that's never enough to make me eat at Arby's. That's because -- if you know me -- I sincerely DON'T want "the meats." That's right, I'm your "friendly neighborhood" Valley Vegan and today we're talking STUC'S PIZZA. Stuc's has been in Appleton since I can remember yelling "cowabunga" and truly caring about pizza (their website says "over 20 years"). It's in a small, blink-and-you-miss-it building just on the periphery of downtown, by a string of businesses I also always blink and miss. I mean, do we really have that many bars in Appleton that we require a bar stool specialty store? I guess so. I'm no expert on the history, but I know Stuc's changed hands back in the early 2000's when the original owner retired to play more golf and a manager took the reins. In 2007, they expanded and a second location opened up in Neenah out by Holiday's Pub and Grill (think Fox Crossing area). And since then, I believe it's changed ownership once more. There's a reason it's lasted, though: It's deep dish is tough to beat -- even in Chicago. A lot of that comes down to three things: delicious sauce, quality ingredients and a perfect, crispy-yet-doughy crust. First off, the sauce is sweet, with a smooth consistency that melts into your tastebuds. If you get a calzone, then you get extra sauce for dipping, which, I must admit, I've eaten with a spoon. There's flavor to it and that's one of the reasons that it's remained one of my favorite pies since becoming vegan. A bad tomato sauce is obvious without salty, gooey cheese to mask it, but this sauce does not feel naked in any way when you remove the dairy. The ingredients are fresh, too, and they never skimp on the veggies (or meat, if you swing that way). For the veggie lover, I recommend their Veggie Supreme. For the meat eater, try the sausage, which they source from the local Haen Meat Market. Either way, there's always plenty to eat and it most definitely fills you up. Two slices of the deep dish and I'm done. (Regrettably, I've often gone for a third slice only to be bloated and ashamed.) My wife and I like their pizza so much, we had these guys deliver to our wedding -- as the main course. It saved on money and, seriously, who the heck doesn't like pizza? For the big event, we decided on their hand-tossed style, which is ergonomically less likely to drip red, stain-prone sauce on an expensive white dress. It's not as iconic as their deep dish, but it did the trick. Now, doing 40-some pizzas for a wedding was certainly not something Stuc's was used to, but they pulled it off, with only the smallest of hiccups (slightly late and their driver needed a couple extra hands). An addition, their general manager was easy to work with -- cheerful, almost enthusiastic to a fault, and really wanting to make our wedding a great experience. He works with companies often, delivering sizable lunches and such. However, he seemed especially interested in doing more large events, much like our wedding, and I think he was using it as a sort of trial. I might be biased, but I think it was a success. My biggest gripes with Stuc's have involved their somewhat rocky partnership with Holiday's Pub and Grill. The two businesses share a building and you can order and eat Stuc's inside of Holiday's, which is awesome if you want a beer and a giant projection TV whilst indulging on pizza. My wife and I used to walk to Holiday's quite often a couple years back, when we lived much closer and we loved the food and atmosphere. However, in those days, we were on the losing end of a string of kitchen screw ups that occurred due to reckless communication snafus between the two businesses. Sometimes it was one's fault, sometimes the other's. Once our pizza was given to a different customer. Another time, the toppings were wrong. It certainly could've been worse, and we did receive apologies and money off our bills, but it had happened enough to note in this review. Hopefully, this has gotten better. A couple other fun tidbits: -- Their calzones are two-meals huge, so you get your money's worth. I used to get them more often, but the toppings have the propensity to clump together (i.e.: onions pushed to one side). -- They have more than pizza. There's salads, pasta and sandwiches, too, but I like their pizza too much to have ever tried anything else. Their bakery items, I'm told, are all hand crafted by a little old lady. This may be fake news, but they taste like they're made by someone who cares. Sadly, not vegan. -- Stuc's also has a gluten-free crust available on request. read more

Went here with a friend on Friday for dinner. The most delicious pizza and garlic bread and a pitcher of beer for less than $35. Wow! It was busy but the service was excellent and we had a great time. Great parking and lots of laughter and good times for the whole family. Check them out when you're looking for something different, yet classic. read more

Our server was nice. The sauce on the pizza was AMAZING. For that alone I would go back. But we are from the Southwest and we like spice. As in spice with heat. My daughter ordered a pasta dish that was awful. Rigatoni Brivido. It was terrible. After about 5 bites her lips were burning and red and it was impossible to eat. We let the server know. Most establishments would offer a different choice. Not this one. To our surprise, the "chef" does not care in the least whether your food is edible AND even though you have returned it to them, you still fully pay for the order. And FOR THIS REASON, amazing pizza sauce aside, we will NEVER return. If you can't conduct business in a way that makes a customer happy to return, you lose business. Addio per Sempre! read more

Place was clean with very good food. Service was very good and affordable.Wish I knew how to give four and a half stars. I would go back.

Good food and great service. Food was fresh and very tasty. The ambiance of the restaurant was casual and comfortable

Deep dish pizza was amazing!!! They said it would take some time to deliver, but it only took about 15 minutes. Definitely will try some more things from them. read more

I live in Minnesota and came to Wisconsin to visit my grandkids. We decided to go out for pizza and came across this establishment. The food was excellent and the service was great. We were there around 5:30 pm the dinning area was pretty full but we were seated quickly. Great experience and highly recommended! read more

The deep dish pizza is unique with the sauce on top. The calzone is enough for two people. The appetizer breads are amazing. The beer is always cold, the owner is great. He likes to experiment with topping combinations so have fun! My daughter will order the spinach cheese-bread with an extra sauce as her meal. My teenage son can finish the calzone, but he will be too full for dessert. Tip: Save room for dessert. Just walk through the door and you will see the cakes on display. read more

I do not see the appeal of this place. We were warned by a neighbor that they get busy and it was wise to call ahead to place an order if we intended to dine in, especially if taking kids. Apparently this requires the approval of the waitress...we were told we couldn't come in for another hour because they were so busy. So we didn't go. This was a first for me...everywhere else in America, you can order pizza ahead (if desired), and that's just how things work. Not sure these folks know that yet. On the next attempt, we just walked in early on a weeknight. They were not busy whatsoever. The people behind the counter had to twice verify with us that we were dining in, even after we were seated at a table. This just seemed strange to me. This is a pizza restaurant, not Mission Control in Houston -- it shouldn't be complicated... The comments on the pizza sauce are accurate...the sauce is too sweet. It drowns out all other aspects of the pizza itself. Not sure where all the 4 & 5-star reviews are coming from...what am I missing? read more

We were recommended to Stuc's because they have a keto friendly crustless calzone. I ordered the Italian vegetarian with onions 3 types of olive cheese, and my partner ordered a 3 meat with sauce and cheese. When we got the food the cook's must have cooked them too close together as the 3 meat also had onions and olives. My partner has an onion allergy and could not eat the food. We told the waitress and she did not offer a recook and we had to pay for the entire meal. So dissatisfied. read more

We LOVE Stucs! I used to think I didn't "like" red sauce before eating their pizza, but now I crave the marinara from Stucs. We almost exclusively order the deep dish pizza - Stucs special flavor. Great flavor, super filling - and usually great leftovers too!! read more

Welp, Stuc's used to be one of my favorite local restaurants, but after tonight I won't be going back ...at least not until the pandemic is over. When I went to pick up my order, I walked in to find that out of the around 15 people working there, only about two of them had masks on. They weren't social distancing at all, and even the person that rung me up was maskless. On top of that, there were several maskless customers milling by the counter, and I didn't see a "masks required" sign on the door. I try to support local businesses as much as possible, but when those businesses show so little concern for their (currently virus-ridden) community, I have no qualms about just getting a Tombstone out of the grocery store freezer. Super disappointing. read more

Service was great. Atmosphere was nice. The deep dish pizza crust and toppings were great. Wasn't fully prepared for the pizza sauce to be sweet. Since we were visiting from another state, not sure if sweet sauce (almost ketchup sweet) is a local or northern thing but it was surprising. Would eat here again but likely pick a different sauce. read more

Best Pizza in Fox Valley! Their Deep Dish is phenomenal Staff is super friendly from when you walk in the door til you leave.

Stucs is my favorite pizza in the valley! Possibly even the world! It's a favorite at work that gets ordered with some regularity. I cannot comment on the dine in experience unfortunately read more

Best Rigatoni I have ever had. Atmosphere is chill. Everything is cooked fresh to order. This place also bakes their own breads too so all of the bread was fresh with a little texture on the exterior. If you are ever in the area, stop in to try their pizza and pasta. The other Stuc's in Neenah does not offer everything on the menu like this one. read more

The pizza and garlic cheese bread tasted weird. They weren't good. The delivery service took over an hour (almost 75 minutes) and the fees for delivery were ridiculous. Delivery was supposed to be free but there was charge for this and a charge for that. read more

Best local pie! We're never disappointed with our pizza from Stucs! Deep dish or thin crust, my family drives the extra miles to pick this up. Sauce is very flavorful and the toppings aren't skimpy. They also offer a cheese-less version which we pick up for a visiting family member with diet restrictions. We do grab gift cards at Costco for a discount on the food, but these are the only ' a boxes you'll find at our place! Staff is always friendly too. read more

Ah, Stuc's. In the four+ years I lived in Appleton, I was a regular customer here and thought it was a solid four stars for the hand-tossed and thin crust pizza. And then, I tried the deep-dish. We ordered the deep dish with garlic, onions, and sun-dried tomatoes. Delicious! It is by FAR my favorite deep dish pizza in Appleton, which is really saying something; I have tried just about every restaurant's pizza in the Fox Valley! No, this is not Chicago deep-dish, as that crust is more buttery and melt-in-your-mouth. But Stuc's offers a really fine deep dish pizza that may not necessarily rival the best pizzas in Chicago, but it certainly is at the tip-top of what Appleton has to offer. Next up is the spinach artichoke dip. This stuff is delightful and has been my absolute spinach artichoke dip in the Valley. Unlike places like Fratello's, there is actually a lot of melted cheese and not just cream in this dip. I am also a little in love with their homemade bread, which is used for both the dip, as well as the garlic bread (which I also recommend). I should also mention that the service is stellar; you will not wait for an egregious amount of time for your food at this restaurant, yet it's still not so fast that you feel like you're getting fast food. The waitresses we've had have always been very friendly and helpful, quietly refilling our waters while we chat over our meal. You'll almost certainly have leftovers. You pay at the front when you're finished. I should also mention that German chocolate cake at Stuc's is also simply amazing. And, of course, this place is so affordable. If you live in Appleton and haven't had a deep dish pizza from Stuc's, you need to come immediately! You will not be disappointed. read more

A bit pricey but worth it. I tried the thin and the hand tossed and was pleasantly surprised that Appleton has some serious pizza. From the east coast, one thing we have is pizza. So I was pleasantly surprised at how good this was. Now, it's not pizza from home (sorry, nothing is) but it's definitely a worthy competitor and kept my home sickness for pizza to a minimum. Ordered take out and took about 15 minutes longer than states (35 minutes for a 20 min wait time) and wasn't busy.. Not sure what happened there but still good stuff. read more

Just rolled into Appleton, Wisconsin craving pizza, I was given a list of places to try but went on Yelp and found Stuc's Pizza. The name itself "stuc(k)" in my head. When I discovered that they had deep dish pizza...I just had to give them a try. This is a family friendly place and they played some great blues music on Friday night (Dec 11, 2015). All the customers look happy to be here and the parking lot was near full to capacity. A great neighborhood place to be... The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The menu is fantastic with many affordable mouth-watering choices. Bon appetite. read more

For what I spent on two large Pizza's and an order of Cheesy Garlic bread, I would have expected better! On one Pizza I ordered extra cheese, it was burned/way over cooked! I ordered two different types of Pizza, and got the same Pizza but in different crust. I also ordered white sauce on one, and lite red sauce on the other - both were slathered with red sauce! Needless to say, this was my first order, will definitely be my last! read more

This might be some of the worst pizza I've eaten. I ordered two different pizzas and both were equally bad. Sauce made so sweet it made my teeth ache. Expensive and the dough was terribly blah. Not sure why people say it's good. It's not. read more

Probably the best garlic cheesy bread I've ever had! The calzone was spot on! I would order again.

YUCK! With a capital YUCK! What happened to Stucs? this used to be one of my favorite pizza places in Appleton. Now it is the worst! Just moved back into town and craving the deliciousness that Stucs always offered. What I got was a pizza that tasted like pure sugar. When a sauce tastes solely like a sugar packet and the only resemblance to tomato is the red color, you know you are in for a gastric disaster. Next was the spaghetti with meatballs. Hail to the abundance of meatballs... that is if you can stomach the over seasoned and otherwise tasteless dish. While the red sauce was not a sweet sugar packet disaster, there was none of it!!! Merely a few tomatoes that appeared to come from a can, dry pasta, and a bottle of oregano in the meatballs. Stucs has always been one of the pricier places for pizza which I have nerver minded, as the quality matched the price. Now, my money would have been better spent at Burger King. Sad, pricy, and sad. If I could give it zero stars I would. Now, off to go brush my teeth so I can avoid the cavities I am sure to get from the sugar overload... read more

Tonight we ordered a large Stuc's Special pizza for delivery through Eatstreet. Our pizza was not delivered in a timely manner and arrived cold. HOWEVER, I was extremely impressed with the customer service that we received when I called. Leah the manager at Stuc's in Appleton was extremely apologetic. She personally delivered a fresh, hot pizza herself and included an extra salad and 2 large pieces of cake. Because of her personal attention, I will return and recommend Stuc's to anyone looking for delicious, reasonably priced pizza from a business who values their customers read more

Stuc's Pizza. Will just say it wasn't for me. The excessive use of tomato sauce that was way too sweet for my taste coupled with low cost low quality pizza dough pretty much crashed this party. Oh, by the way I've never been charged .50 extra for house salad dressing. The young person that took my order ask me twice if I wanted a to-go box for the remaining pizza but, never questioned why I only ate one slice. read more

This is the first thin crust pepperoni and sausage pizza I've had in Appleton. This is going to be tough to beat. For me, I would call the thin crust a fluffy thin crust. Not because the crust is fluffy but with the pepperoni and sausage it just seemed thicker. But it wasn't. At least the crust wasn't. It's a thin cracker like crust. Perfectly done with only what looks like too much sauce. Sauce amount for me was the ideal amount. Not too much that your toppings slide off and not too little that you wish there was more. From ordering to on the table was quicker than expected. I enjoyed the sausage flavor and the pepperoni and sausage are some of the better I have had. I would definitely come back again and again. Service was appropriately attentive, friendly and polite. Well done, Stuc! read more

First time visitor to Stucs tonight and man oh man we were blown away. We moved to Appleton last year and have slowly been working our way through the various pizza restaurants and tonight, Stucs took over the lead from Wise Guys. We got a hand tossed pizza with pepperoni, sausage and basil and it was *perfection*. The sauce was outstanding and the crust was delectable. In addition, prices are reasonable and service was good. We will be back often! read more
