The pizza here is good but the decor and environment are less than appealing. the bartenders are hit or miss. On one occasion I came here and asked for a Fat Tire assuming they had it since there was a Fat Tire neon light hanging right above the bar. The girl looked at me like I was crazy and said they didn't carry it. Then I looked and the taps and of course, it was right there smack in the middle. Then on another occasion I ordered a margarita and it was actually pretty good (I'm damn picky about my margaritas). The place isn't high class by any means and it has a smokey musty smell but if you just want to drink and eat pizza and don't care about anything else, well then, The Blind Onion isn't that bad. I can't speak for the bowling alley since I've never been. read more

Went on a date here and this is where the other person wanted to go. I had never been. I found the restaurant to be really cramped as there are not that many seating options and there was a large family that took all the middle table options. It feels dark in the restaurant as the walls are painted a dark color and there are few windows. The pizza was ok. It was big and definitely filled us up. I like a thicker crust though. read more

Passing thru town we just went here based on reviews. People there were very friendly. Girl recommended the Sicilian. Now that I've had it, I would too. It was very good! The bread they use on their sandwiches is really good too! Next time we'll try one of the pizzas. TRY IT! read more

Delicious pizza, great customer service, nice open space. $5 lunch special with 2 huge slices plus a drink, is the best! Convenient when bringing the family- bowling, pizza, & cold stone ice cream all in one spot. read more

I love this place and recommend it to anyone and everyone! They have such a great pizza deal called the "super slice" where you can order a slice of pizza (it's rather large, they actually give you two slices even though they say it's only one) and you can order any draft beer all for $5. It's a great deal. The prices are fantastic for this place without sacrificing the quality of what is served. If you like bowling or ice cream, there is a bowling alley and ice cream place attached to the bar/restaurant. read more

What a pleasant surprise! This nondescript building holds a Coldstone Creamery, pizza joint, games area, and bowling alley!!! They also have a bar with a GREAT selection and serve food late! We happened to go on a half-off medium pizza night so paid virtually nothing for a filling and delicious breath buster pizza and $2 beers! The bartender was energetic and helpful and the pizza staff were friendly. A great place to people watch! read more

Delicious and fresh. Hands down best pizza around. The garden veggie was so yummy. The staff was friendly, helpful, and prompt. I especially enjoyed the music & vibe. I will definitely be returning, read more

I had the pleasure of dining at this establishment no too long ago. What a pleasant surprise . Pizza was nice and cheesy, Not too saucy which is the way I like it. Nice combination having pizza and a Cold Stone Ice-cream parlor right in the restaurant . I wil be back read more

Apparently the only place open when driving through Elko on a Sunday at lunchtime. Pizza was fine - the big, thick, doughy kind. If you're used to your pesto being fresh ground herbs, be prepared that this is instead a soupy green alfredo sauce. The restaurant is connected to an arcade/poolhall/bowling alley, so you can play Big Buck Hunter while you wait for your pie if you like that sort of thing. read more

Stopped by for dinner on our way through NV. We ordered a General's, which is a combo. It was very good. I especially enjoyed the doughy crust, which they roll thick on the edges. They provide honey to go on it -- one of the few places I know of that do so. It's delicious. Decor-wise, it is definitely your basic pizza joint, which is fine. The place has three separate sections: pizza restaurant, bar & pool hall (4 tables), and a 6-lane bowling alley -- really! Nice enough place. It's a little less than 2 miles off the highway in the middle of a pretty run-down area, but it wasn't a big deal, and there's another restaurant right next to it. I would go back if we ever travel this way again. Lot better than the highway fast food. read more

I had dinner here recently while passing through town. I wanted something different than the typical boring chain restaurants along I-80 and this definitely fit the bill. I had the Greek pizza which was excellent. The dough is obviously freshly made and is about as good as it gets. I also had a side salad that was good, but had a ton of diced cucumber. Seriously, I don't know that I've ever had so much cucumber on a salad in my life. The one stumbling block was the young lady who took my order. I placed my order at 8:30 and she told me they close at 9 and since it would take 15 minutes to make my pizza, she asked if I'd like to go. No, eating a pizza in the car doesn't sound like much fun. I got my pizza in about 15 minutes and at 8:53 (I looked at my watch) she began putting up chairs at the tables around me. I definitely felt rushed and I understand they were getting ready to close, but still.... read more

Compared blind onion in Reno this place is sorry. For how much you pay for a pizza and get barely half the toppings. Sorry excuse for a gourmet pizza. If I could post a picture of what a blind onion pizza should look like I would. But it won't. read more

First and last time eating here. Super doughy and flavorless crust, very basic sauce (that I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was from a can), low quality pepperoni make for a less that appealing pizza. About 4 or 5 unsupervised kids running around screaming to the point where my wife and I have to raise our voices to hear each other. Bottom line: skip it. read more

This Blind Onion has ruined me for all other Blind Onions. While living in Elko, this was THE place to get pizza (Eh to Pizza Barn). Forget that the tables can be sticky (they serve honey to dip your crust in...). Forget that the service can be slow. Forget that it's attached to a bar with annoying patrons. Take your pizza to go and you're golden! Ahh I miss my Blind Hawaiian with the BEST ranch! The Elko Blind Onion needs to school the Reno Blind Onions on how it's done. While, this place is the best, 288 miles is too far to go for pizza. read more

This has become our standard go-to when we want to get out of the house. All the food is freshly prepared, everything clean, very kid friendly but still feels like an adult atmosphere. Best deal ever in the history of pizza is the Super Slice Combo: three toppings of your choice and a beer for $7 and the "slice" is enormous. Our absolute favorite for full pie is the Greek, which can be oily (we have them blot the oil off the artichokes and sun dried tomatos) but is 100% addictive. Locally owned, fairly historic building, pool, bowling, or sit-down. read more

The food was great! The atmosphere leaves a bit to be desired (but what do you expect from a pizza joint?). We got the "chips" as an appetizer, and then got the Greek, the Popeye, and a pepperoni pizza for the main course. All were great, but really enjoyed the Greek. The crust on all of the pizzas was delicious, light and fluffy with a hint of oil. The only complaint that I had was the greasiness of the pizza--it had a little more grease than I wanted. read more

Love it!! Fresh ingredients and dough.. Great service.. Just right for dinner with friends or the family..

Love the pizza here and its a great atmosphere. Can be a bit pricey but pizzas are half off on Fridays. There is a bowling alley next door and a coldstone creamery as well. read more

Love this place! Pizza is fresh, good beer selection & bowling lanes are kept in good condition. Family friendly or a great girls night.

This is my favorite pizza place ever. The crust is awesome: chewy, thick and just delicious. They have a variety of unique pizzas on the menu, our favorite is the BBQ chicken. Their salads and dressings are also excellent. The ranch (and probably others, but we always get ranch) is homemade and very very good. They even added chipotle for my husband when he asked if they had anything with chipotle. read more

Good pizza attached to a bowling alley. Pizza was good, not outstanding, but much better than your typical pizza place. Cold stone is inside and very good. Prices were reasonable. read more

We where driving through the area and wanted to stop for lunch we read some of the YELP reviews. It is a combination Cold Stone ice cream, bar with coin op pool tables and about a 8 lane bowling ally. We ordered a large all meat. They said they could make an XL for added cost. We order side salads, Greek and Cesar. They were huge for being a side and both were good. Neat place with relaxed atmosphere. Staff was super friendly. read more

Pizza is decent, thick crust, pepsi products only, a little pricy for a little pizza joint.

Sept 13, 2014 Just a lil behind on writing review's. The Blind Onion Pizza & Pub, Elko, NV My hubby and I travel thru all of Cali and NV, my hubby being from NY and me OK. We love pizza, especially NY style pizza. There was a wine walk going on in town on the night we ate there. Note: We were not participating in the wine walk. However we did check out several other places that night and everywhere we went we met different locals and the folks in this town are so nice and friendly! Back to the review.... We sat at the bar....which got busy at times from the folks on the wine walk. And we still had great service! I won't take the time to describe the place as you can read in other reviews. Small town....old building....loved the bar, the wood work it was beautiful and the ceiling was the old pressed tin. Oooo...if those walls could talk...lol The pizza was not NY style .....however delicious! The wine was good, which was a pleasant surprise. We will be back! Needless to say....lol read more

I don't know what was going on, but we walked in and the place was empty, the staff was there and looked at us but didn't say anything just turned back around. So we were ignored and didn't stay long enough to see if the food was any good. read more

The service was friendly, but the wait time and food left something to be desired. We ordered over phone and they gave us a wait estimate of 25 minutes. 25 minutes later we arrived at the restaurant and all the food was ready, minus the hot wings, which took an extra 25 minutes. Upon arriving back at our hotel, the food was just ok. Nothing special, and they forgot the pesto on the pesto chips. To be fair, there was a little league party in the restaurant which seemed to have captured all their attention. read more

Stopped here for lunch on our way through and we really loved it! Two HUGE slices of pizza with our choice of 3 toppings for $6. A buck more for a large drink. And get this...you can also get Cold Stone ice cream right there in the same place! PLUS a connecting bar and bowling alley. Nicely done, Elko! read more

Pizza is really good, I'm glad there was a vegan option especially considering its in NV and vegan options are hard to come by here. Only complaint was how loud it was. Tons of little kids running around and even teenage girls running inside and outside while screaming. read more

Pizza was tasty. Staff Is friendly and pretty. I like the atmosphere with the pool tables and Tuesday night ladies bowling. Nice place.

Ordered a salad and a pizza. Both were great. Service was not so great though. The guy that took our order acted annoyed that we were there and that we had questions about the menu. I noticed he also acted annoyed with other customers as well. When we were leaving it took 5 minutes to get somebody's attention to get a refill on my drink. All 3 of the employees were in the kitchen area chatting and were not paying attention to the front counter. Next time I think I will just call in my order and pray it is right. Lol read more

The pizzas are good, way better than the chains in town. They have a restaurant side and a bar side, and of course a bowling alley. I've only visited the bar side, the bartenders are friendly and occasionally feisty but always a joy. The atmosphere can be strange at times from the old timer drinking at the bar to the kids playing pool in the back to hipsters, yes hipsters. And then the salty asses hanging back judging everyone. Oh and the occasional youngster running to the crane game. And that's a usual Friday night. Oh f there's cold stone creamery now to. read more

Love the pizza and family atmosphere here. The pizza is delicious! The customer service is a bit lacking though. Now that I've been there a few times I know the procedure, but the first time my husband and I were unsure of what to do. There is no menu up to look at but you do have to order at the register then sit and wait for them to bring everything to you. I read other reviews complaining about going in and standing there without anyone acknowledging them and this is how we felt too. Luckily we stuck it out, found a menu on our own and ordered. Not having a menu up to look at makes it hard for us every time we go because we are not sure what we are ordering before we get to the counter. Whomever happens to be taking orders is usually a bit distant and seems bored, but always gets our orders right. The service does not take away from my 5 stars however, the pizza is that yummy. read more

One of my favorite places in town to buy pizza.. If they make it right. Times I've gone and had great pizza but then times the dough isn't fully cooked and then it feels like there's no sauce at all. The service feels like the same service I get at McDonald's. Just grab and go kinda thing. Half he staff is teens anyways. I guess it makes sense. But hey. When you get that good pizza every so often it's great! read more

A locally owned franchise pizza joint. Best pizza in three counties with hand rolled/hand made crust and always fresh ingredients. Staff are very efficient and pleasent and the owners are some of the best people in town. read more

Much better, we received our pizza within twenty minutes. Very good! And I suggest coming on a Sunday when it is not so crowded. We had a great time then. read more

This place is a disappointment. The bowling alley is fun, but it's like they have a rule that you have to be a teen, and really dirty to work here. It's very expensive, but they have pool tables so that's a plus. Wouldn't recommend the pizza, but the salads are good. read more

Great pizza, love the greek! Best crust...ever! My kids would never eat crust until Blind Onion, now I have to make sure they don't steal mine. Great family place, pizza for dinner and ColdStone for dessert. read more

Skimpy on the toppings for a build your own for the price. Tasty and not greasy. Thin crust with a good thick, chewy, almost breadstick like crust edge. Has a Coldstone Creamery inside and is also attached to a bar with billiard tables. read more

Had high hopes for the place. It was obvious that they do a large business when we walked in, as the workers were very busy. We ordered a large pizza, which came nice and hot, but unfortunately, the pizza was rather bland. The sausage on it was oddly cut into small, thin strips, and didn't have much flavor. The pizza seemed to be missing something; perhaps garlic. The crust, while tasty, hadn't been cooked enough and was rather doughy. read more

I have only ate at the bar, but the bartenders are nice and friendly and the super slice is a great deal. For six bucks you get two slices of pizza with three toppings plus your choice of sause, and a draft beer. Their beer selection isn't too bad either, couple Sam Adams, some 1554, and a few others. I eat there at least once a week. read more
