First of all, we've eaten there several times and have mostly been very happy with the food and service. I've never been a big fan of their pizza, it never has enough sauce on it. But I do like many of their other dishes.
Today, my wife was out and asked if she wanted me to pick up pizza and would I call it in. I went on the website to order online. First of all, when you click on "Order Online" you're sent to a page with three different delivery services. I clicked on each of them and saw that Door Dash was the only one where you could select "pickup" so I went with that. I selected a pickup time of 4:40. When my wife arrived at 4:40 they couldn't find our order. She called me and I went back into their site and it was very difficult to go back and look at my order. Finally after going back and forth with her and the website and the employee she suggested that the order was lost and that I order again. Just as that happened I found the page that confirmed the order. It turns out that Door Dash orders are kept in a separate area. I ordered a pizza for my wife with anchovies and pineapple and one for me with mushroom. I also asked for extra sauce on both. When she arrived home with the cold pizza hers was fine but mine did not have mushrooms. There was no extra sauce but my wonderful wife asked them for some extra sauce on the side which they provided. Rather that drive all the way back up, I just decided to eat what I had. No mushrooms, no big deal. But then came worst part. The pizza was terrible. It was tasteless and was like trying to chew rubber. It may have been the worst pizza I've ever had. Piezanos is always extremely busy and I think that because they are really the only game in town in this area. If another pizza place opens up they could be in trouble. I will not get pizza again from Piezanos. Like I said I think that some of their Italian specialties are pretty good. Nothing special but good enough. I'll stick with those from now on.

We tried Piesanos in Lake Deaton plaza and found their pizza horrible. We were even convinced to give them another try and the second time was no better. Robertos is the best we have found and they are like a 6 on my pizza scale.

We like Sammy’s as well and close to our house. We also enjoy Flippers. It is hard to find great pizza in the Villages.

I wish we had a Papa Murphy's here. Mt Dora is a long way from my house. I don't have any experience with frozen pizzas. Does anyone have recommendations?

Last pizza we got at Piezanos was awful. I should have opened the box to take a look at it before I left. It was burned on TOP ? I have never got a pizza before that was burned on top, on the bottom yes but on top never. I have been here in Florida over 30 years now I have yet to find a place that makes a great pizza. I have been able to find OK pizza but that’s about it. The search continues, lol. Yes as one poster mentioned “ we should all be so lucky to have these first world problems”. I’d still like to be able to find a really good pizza somewhere around here. First world problems, LMAO.

They were both very good but we both leaned toward the more traditional pizza from Newman. The California pizza was fine but it relied very heavily on a spice mixture as opposed to the flavor of the ingredients. Both crust were also good, flavor was good, they were thin and not doughy though the Newman won this area as well because it was just a little more crispy, though this could have been from a 25 degree hotter oven (their instructions, not ours). We have both had better pizza back home, but these were ok. They really are worth a try. |

Try Marco's Pizza. We find it very good. Also Mallory Country Club's Pizza and Giovanni's on 466.

We like the "smaller" pizzas that are sold by Aldi for $5. Not frozen, just refrigerated. The larger pizzas have thinner crusts that are not to our taste.
