    Still loving Benny's! Easy menu, quick service. Get a slice or a whole pie, but be aware the slices are bigger than your head and the whole pie is so big it might not fit in your car! Large beverage selection (not fountain), but it's fun to browse the bottles and cans and pick something you like. My sons love it, our lake guests love it. We usually stop for a slice on our way into town. Staff are all masked right now and they are asking you to be as well unless you're eating. Several outdoor tables give you the option of indoor/outdoor dining. If you're looking for something a little more fun than a chain delivery place or a frozen pizza from the grocery store - head over here. Always big slices, always good.

    One slice larger than a full size plate.

    Im not too sure how i feel about this pizza. My friend raved about it so my expectations were pretty high. The size...now thats the best thing about the pizza. Its huge!!! 28" to be exact. It literally covered my entire head in a photo. The flavor...hmmmmm. I tried the pepperoni and the crust was way to thin for my liking. The pizza pretty much didnt taste like much after it was no longer piping hot. The price was surprising...my friend called in for 2 larges and luckily they calles him back and said the credit card machine was down and he had to pay with cash. He asked how much it was and they informed him $68 for two large 1 toppings. Of course we went with 1 large and it was enough for 4 people. Overall...the size was astounding and the flavor was aaaaaaahhhhhh...okay.

    That's a normal 16oz naked juice... for size comparison.

    Biggest pizza I've ever ordered in my life. That's definitely their selling point. The pizza was still hot when we picked it up. We got pepperoni and sausage on half and mushroom garlic on the other. The cheese pull was legit and the topping was amazing. Wished the crust was a bit thinner but i don't think it would have hold the topping if it was. All in all... I liked it.

    One slice cheese, pepperoni, sausage

    Great pizza!! One slice is enough. Hot and fresh to order. I do wish the dough was a little more well done but it was great!!! A whole pizza would feed 7-10.

    Benny's pizza is the best

    Love Benny's! Best pizza near the lake! We get it to go and heat it up on the oven all week! Definitely visit them! Check your pizza before you leave sometimes it over done ..

    I freaking love this place! Awesome pizza with great customer service. HUGE slices with fresh ingredients. Just plain tasty! Give them a try and you'll become a loyal friend!

    Yes - that's one pizza.  No photoshop involved.

My g/f recommended Vinny's as being very good. Originally, we were going to go here for an early dinner on Thursday, July 4, but when we were driving from Franklin County, I exclaimed Prime Rib Thursday at Copper Kettle! So, I had her U-turn, and we tried that instead. Please see my 5-star of them from August 2024. We ended up going on Saturday, July 6. We arrived in this cramped front area, and someone sat us at a booth at a reasonable time. We sat in the booth over 10 minutes without anyone coming to even get us water or check on here. We were hungry, and I was already annoyed for this long wait and was looking on Yelp. I asked my g/f about trying Bella Vita, which she agreed and left about 15 minutes after being seated. It was a big disappointment. However, after my 5-star Yelp review of Bella Vita (which I got to reviewing in April 2025), my g/f said Bella Vita is a better Italian than Vinny's, so maybe for the best. Since I didn't actually eat at Vinny's in the end, wasn't actively denied water, or had some other terrible experience, it would be unfair to give than 1-star in this case.

My g/f parents have a house near Smith Mountain Lake, and we were down there the week of 4th of July 2024. On Saturday, July 6 we were going to Vinny's (which she had recommended), and they totally dropped the ball. We were seated and no one came around for over 10 minutes even with water. We were hungry and didn't want to be sitting there waiting for God knows how long. I was looking on my phone and discovered Bella Vita up the road. So, we got out of there. We had to park a little further, it happened to be their 4th of July weekend celebration. We just wanted to eat; so we entered the restaurant on a specific side as the other side was part of the charged fair. We were served rapidly water, got menus, decided, and got our food in quick timing. Not only that, the food was excellent, and even my g/f acknowledged she liked better than Vinny's. I got the spaghetti chicken parmesan. It was very hearty, but I was hungry and ate it all. Not like I could do leftovers as we were leaving the next day. I even helped eat a little of hers as well as she was like I can't finish this. It was best spaghetti chicken parmesan I've had in quite a while. It's a somewhat small place, but it was comfortably laid out although a bit on the dark side. Overall, this is an excellent place and will try to return.

It was really a coin-toss between Bella and what appeared to only be one other non-chain restaurant in Bedford, so Bella got the nod this time. Walking in as a non-local is a little weird as we didn't see the front door and I guess walked in on a young lady folding pizza boxes that directed us to the left. We were trying to take in the space as it has some high walls and many, many hundreds of curios and wine bottles stacked atop all of the dividers... it really is kind of sight sensory overload. We finally found the front door, confirmed that it was just the two of us and were told it was "okay, you're here now" about walking in the side door. Seated quickly as it was mid-afternoon and very low traffic inside. Wait staff were quick, attentive, and happy to oblige two thirsty travelers guzzling waters. My buddy ordered the spaghetti and I ordered what I thought was a personal calzone with spinach, Mozz, sausage, and sauce... what I received was larger than my dinner plate and easily broken into two meals. Yay for hungry people! The garlic knots brought out before the food were a nice touch. I added a little crushed red pepper to them for a kick. Everything was hot, tasted fresh, and the dipping sauce was excellent. Absolutely no complaints on the food or service. The Peroni went down fast and cold, just the way I like them! I would probably give five stars if not for all the odds and ends stacked atop the dividers in the dining area. It really overwhelms the space and doesn't really provide a nice ambiance.
