Bottom of crust showing how burnt the dough is.

Second order in a little under two months. we just picked up a large cheese half pepperoni. Pretty much our standard order. First off I believe this place had to have been sold because the pizza tastes different. The cheese isn't the same and seems to be almost non existent. The dough is so thin that this pizza and the last were burnt o the bottom. Today is the last time we will get pizza from here.

Sausage pepperoni and onion never disappoints

Delicious absolutely delicious crust is light just like East Coast crust. Fresh ingredients all the time and great stuff to go with the environment. This place is a must!!!

Cider beer!!

Food is awesome. Owner made us laugh as soon as we walked in the door. Local happening place with a great vibe and full bar. Hidden gem for sure!

Side Salad

We just visited Benjamine's Pizza for the first time, we were really pleased with the food and enjoyed dinner. We started with an appetizer of the fried mozzarella. These seemed to be a step up from the standard deep fried mozzarella stick. We then go side salads, this was an amazing salad and a generous portion for a side salad. I was very pleased with the freshness of the salad and the blue cheese dressing was great. For our pizza we got the Italian Sausage and Pepper pizza which was great. The sausage was delicious and cooked perfectly on the pizza, with a good kick of spice to it. The crust was very good as well. We really enjoy the pizza a lot. I felt sorry for the young lady trying to run the front of the house. She was working very hard, but she was the only person working the whole dining room and bar. She did a great job working through the room and managing the multiple priorities, but that had to be a hard job. If you have not visited Benjamine's pizza give it a try for sure and see what you think. It looks like they are set up to offer music and to host sporting event watches as well.

Great venue for a company party!

Great pizza, great drinks, great service! Oh, and karaoke! This is a great place to have a party. The pizza and drinks are very reasonable priced. Worth the trip. Check it out!

Wine and pizza time

Thuy and I were walking in the area, and checking out the skate park, which is not in Yelp, yet. The word pizza, on a nearby sign, caught my eye, and anytime Thuy agrees on Pizza (or Mexican), I take full advantage of the opportunity. But once we started looking over the menu, Thuy caught sight of the eggplant Parmesan... Or was it parmigiana? Can't check on-line menu... See below. I did not feel like ordering a pizza for myself and having leftovers the next day (though that is my true test for a great pizza... leftovers). So I went for the sausage and cheese calzone. I asked about the sausage prior to ordering and was told it was the link style (not the "rabbit pellets", which I refuse to eat). Very tasty... But... Oh my gosh this thing was HUGE! I took half of it home. I wouldn't say it stood up to the "pizza test", but it was still good. Thuy's pasta was a bit past "al dente." Maybe Benjamin's, like so many other places "par cook" their pasta? It wasn't too far past, but Thuy is particular about her pasta. Two other observations: Generous pour on the $4 glass of house red. Did not get our bread until after our food arrived. Bottom line: Next time we'll definitely try the pizza. Oh, and if the owner is reading, your Website Expired! https://www.benjaminspizzakitchen.com/

Fettuccini Alfredo, Classic Cheese Pizza, Greek Salad, and Triple Layer Chocolate Cake

I have no idea why this place has 3.5 stars, today me and my BF ordered carry out and everything was extremely fresh and delicious. As recently moved New Jersey East Coast natives we know good Italian food and honestly this is up to par with any place we've been to in that area. The pizza was fresh, crispy, and had a strong undercarriage and had the perfect amount of grease on top. The kids Alfredo was Al dente and flavorful, the Greek salad was extremely fresh and the house vinaigrette was like crack (I ended up dipping my crust in there even) and the chocolate cake was light, moist, and airy with the perfect amount of chocolate taste that isn't extremely overwhelming. 10/10 making this a weekly treat and can't wait to try in person as well! Relieved to FINALLY have a reliable pizza parlor in our area!

When we arrived, we were told our only immediate option was to sit outside in 99-degree heat. Otherwise, we would have to wait another 20-25 minutes for an indoor table. That completely defeated the purpose of making a reservation. It was embarrassing because I had planned this celebration, expecting the reservation to ensure the seating I requested. If indoor seating wasn't actually available, that should have been communicated before we arrived so we could have made other plans. To make matters worse, the dark-haired hostess was dismissive and offered very little help. The blonde hostess at least seemed to understand our frustration and showed some empathy, which I appreciated. A reservation should mean something or if standard does not mean indoor, there should be an explanation. The hostess stated they can't see what you select as far as seating which doesn't seem to make sense. Unfortunately, this experience left us disappointed before our celebration even began. You lost 6 customers today!

First, the overall service has consistently been lacking. The hostess at the front has never been particularly welcoming, and the service in general feels pretty disengaged. It's not necessarily outright rude - it just feels like there's no real effort, which sets the tone right away. We've noticed a big decline over the past 6-12 months. It used to be better, but lately it's just not the same. As for the food... it's simply not worth the price. We're talking $100+ tabs and leaving disappointed every time. This last visit really sealed it for us. I ordered something very simple, and my son got a basic chicken sandwich - chicken, bun, pickles, ketchup, cheese. It came out with a barely toasted bun and chicken that tasted like it had been fried in old grease. Not appetizing at all. We also ordered cheese fries, and they were undercooked and just drenched in queso - more like a bowl of cheese with fries tossed in, rather than properly melted, crispy cheese fries. This isn't a one-time experience either - we've tried several times hoping it would improve, and it just hasn't. If you're going for drinks and to watch a game, it might be okay. But for a full meal, especially at that price point, we wouldn't recommend it. Sadly, this last visit was enough for us - we won't be returning.

Overall, very impressed with this place…read more Had a nice family dinner here this weekend. We got here relatively early, but it was already hopping. I'd probably try and get a reservation if you are trying to get here during prime hours. Service was great. Seemed to have a good team atmosphere with waiters helping cover each others tables. Food came out quickly. They gave me the wrong side, but before I could even ask my waiter, they apologized and brought out the right one. So kudos for noticing it and fixing it. Good was very good! I had the steak Frites with the Brussel sprouts. Everything was cooked well and tasted great! Overall, good vibe, good location, good food. Would definitely recommend this place to others!

Was happy to see a new(er) option in Roanoke that offers steak, and more specifically prime rib! I wasn't hungry enough for the prime rib when we stopped in, so I opted for the prime rib sandwich with fries. My wife had a tenderloin with veggies and potatoes. My prime rib was pretty good, perhaps more cheese would make it better, but overall the meat had good flavor and the roll was not soggy. My wife said the tenderloin was good and cooked to order (medium rare). Size was appropriate too. The sides were good too. Service was attentive and professional. They have large screen TVs throughout the location and a pretty large bar as well. Overall, I think this is the perfect balance between upscale dining and sport bar, especially on this strip of restaurants. I'd like to come back to try the prime rib sometime soon!

This the is the kind of place where you walk in planning to stay for one drink (unless you are here…read morefor a show) and somehow find yourself checking your watch three hours later wondering where the afternoon went. This is not a fancy, pinky-up establishment. Nobody is going to explain the emotional journey of the chef or tell you where the lettuce went to college. What you will find is cold beer, good food, plenty of TVs, and a room full of people who seem genuinely happy to be there. The atmosphere is exactly what a Texas sports bar should be: relaxed, welcoming, and just loud enough to be fun without requiring sign language to talk to your friends. The staff was friendly, the service was quick, and nobody acted like bringing you food was a personal inconvenience. The food is solid comfort food. Nothing on the menu is trying to reinvent American cuisine, and thank goodness for that. Sometimes you just want a good meal, a cold drink, and a place to watch the game without someone serving a deconstructed cheeseburger on a roof shingle. The best compliment I can give is that this place feels authentic. It's a locals' spot that actually likes its customers. Four stars because there's always room for improvement, but if you're looking for a place to eat, drink, watch sports, and forget about your responsibilities for a little while, the Mule Barn gets the job done. Just don't blame them if "one quick stop" turns into the rest of your evening

First of all to find a good gluten free pizza close to my office I'm already happy…read more After my coworker let me pick the place I chose Wise Guys because of the already prior reviews. I wasn't going to go around asking for photos of all my coworkers food but we ordered a variety of pastas pizzas and one lady got some garlic knots. I heard no complaints. There was one issue. My hot honey pizza came as a plain cheese pizza. Since I am gluten intolerant I didn't want to risk it was also not gluten free I called to ask. I could have easily just ate a cheese pizza (as long as it's GF) but a gentleman - I should have asked but I'm guessing he's the boss. - offered to remake the pizza and bring it over himself. He came with a fresh and hot small Hot honey pizza gluten free and just fabulous. That kind of customer service is all I need to make me a returning customer and I will be suggesting them for future pizza days.

Dough is so fluffy and light, i was amazed with the quality, pizza was better than the calzone in my opinion, but calzone was also very good. I can keep praising this place for next 17 paragraphs but you get the point. Overall: great food, even better service, relaxed atmosphere, and a lot of specials. Would recommend and world come back!! P.S. My ratings are based on whether I believe I could make a better or healthier version at home. If food/drinks/ service impress me, I'll be happy to come back. If not the stars reflect that.
