    Delicious! We ordered two pizzas and a Caesar salad. The Carne pizza and the La Rughetta pizza (we…read moreadded balsamic glaze and goat cheese). Here's the run down, the crust was thin, but still had a soft chew, which was the perfect bite every time. The Carne pizza had plenty of meat with an excellent tomato sauce.This is a crowd pleasing pizza pie. I'm a sucker for prosciutto and goat cheese so when Hannah, our waitress, recommended adding the goat cheese and balsamic glaze to our pizza, I absolutely did. This was a smart move. The hubby and I opted to share the Caesar salad while we waited on the pizzas. The timing of the pizzas was perfect as we had just finished our salad. The staff was friendly and kept busy. Our drinks were refilled timely and they checked on us without being interruptive. Since yelp likes when we share tips, here's one, they have an awesome happy hour menu with great pricing. Super excited, we found our pizza spot!

    I travel to St. Joseph for work at least three times a year and I come here every single time. Have…read morebeen doing it for years. After today I won't be coming back. My work colleagues and I got sat and were informed of a long wait as there was only one server - cool. No problem. It happens. We are sitting about 20 minutes when a table of 8 gets sat next to us. The cook immediately came from behind the counter to bring water for them. We were still sitting there with nothing. Our server came over - apologized and got our orders and brought out our drinks. Our salads came out and all was well. Then we waited and waited. We were informed that one of the potato pizzas we ordered couldn't be made because they were out of potatoes. No big deal. We changed the order. Then the group next us - who came in 20 minutes after us and ordered after us all got served their pizzas(including a few potato pizzas). While we waited and was not served. Finally realizing that our diverse group of 5 was being shafted for the very non-diverse group of 8 we asked for our pizzas to go and we left. So if the intention of Il Lazzarone was to make us feel sidelined and "othered" - congratulations. Job well done. Because we left there being reminded of just how how bigotry feels. The pizzas was still great in my hotel room. But you will never see a recommendation from me or dime of my money again.

Being used to Kansas City staples like Garozzo's and Cascone's, we were excited to give it a try, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to the high rating hype. ​ ​The Atmosphere & Service: The space was clean and the waitstaff was incredibly warm, nice, and welcoming throughout our meal. ​Drinks & Extras: They have a great wine selection! However, keep in mind they don't have a full physical bar, so non-wine options such as beer and spirits come from a can. Bread is also a separate purchase and doesn't include an olive oil dipping sauce nor did they bring out or have any fresh ground pepper or parmesan cheese which is a bit of a sin with our meals. Note: I did get a pepper shaker, but it poured heavy like a cheap bottle of wine... Lucky for me. I'm a pepper fan. My Entree: I tried their signature Tagliatelle pasta with meat sauce. While the flavor was definitely there and the pasta was cooked just past al dente (which I didn't mind), the sauce was quite runny on the plate. ​The Price: Very reasonable--it definitely won't blow a hole in your wallet! ​The Verdict: ​While the hospitality and prices are great, the food just missed that "chef's kiss" quality I was hoping for. It's a nice spot, but overall it felt a bit overhyped compared to top-tier Italian dining.

    I would rate this about a 2.5. I was woth my 2 kids. They loved the spaghetti and pizza. I had…read morethe lasagna, and it was ok. Breadsticks were great. My main issue was cleanliness of the restaurant. Just felt a bit dark and dingy in some places. The restrooms were unusable due to being dirty. Would we go back...unsure. Possibly for drive thru only.

    I recently visited this location to pick up takeout pasta through the drive-thru, and unfortunately…read morethe experience was very disappointing. The employee taking our order seemed uninterested and had difficulty listening to what we were ordering. Our order was taken incorrectly the first time, and when we politely corrected it, her response was noticeably rude and dismissive. We were then given a total of about $50 for three pasta dishes, which didn't seem accurate. When we later reviewed the receipt, we discovered we had been charged for four pastas despite correcting the order. After taking payment, we were told to pull forward and wait for the food to be brought out to us. During this wait, we saw the employee leave the building to go to her car for a smoke break. When our food finally arrived, it was cold and still not prepared correctly. It's unclear whether it was cold from sitting or from being made incorrectly again, but either way, the quality was not acceptable. Overall, the service was unprofessional, the order was repeatedly incorrect, and the food quality suffered as a result. Unfortunately, based on this experience, I won't be returning. I hope management takes these concerns seriously, as simple improvements in customer service and attention to detail would make a significant difference.
