We got onion rings to start and they were good, as usual. I just think 30 seconds more in the fryer would make them a little crisper and tastier. Our Canadian bacon mushroom pizza was awesome! The crust was just right. The amount of sauce was just right. The waitress was friendly and took our order at our seats. Drinks were self serve.

I had to call the store just to get their attention. Once the manager Mike came to the counter he was laughing and shaking his head. Saying he was busy and couldn't help me, I asked why one of the other guys couldn't help me and he stated he's the only one who can run the register. Continued to laugh and shake his head. When I got my pizza there was a hair in it. None of the workers wore gloves or washed their hands, especially the manager after handling my cash.

We'd heard of this pizza spot since we arrived to Grinnell, so naturally we had to try it…read more Immediately greeted as we walked in the door and loved that we could see all the chefs in the kitchen right then and there. It was busy but not so much that we didn't get sat right away. Our server was also busy so someone else took our drink order - and then gave us menus. We ended up ordering the meatballs, a salad, and a classic pie, and walked out also with a cool vintage looking Pagliai's tee! The meatballs were large, came with two, and really flavorful. The sauce was classic tomato but not basic, you could taste the aromatics and that was so good. Basic salad but really delicious runny ranch to go with it, which I loved. I dipped the crust from my pizza in it and it was just so good! For the pie we split it in half - half with meats and the other half with special. The crust was thin and also seasoned nicely and couldn't say enough about how delicious the cheese was. It was so gooey and thick - it made the pizza so incredibly good. Besides our server taking us on due to the prior one being too busy, the vibes inside were chill and casual, music was good and the atmosphere was pleasant. Everyone behind the pizza counter had smiles and acknowledged you. Was a real delight. Everywhere in Grinnell folks rave about Pagliai's and we understand why. We'll definitely have to come back!

They are famous for their taco pizza, which I happily ordered. My family also ordered the Bavarian and said that they truly enjoyed it. What's also wonderful is that they have gluten free crust available, which is perfect as one of my family members has a severe gluten allergy. When we arrived, we were greeted warmly and seated quickly. It did take a little bit before our server came to take our order. After that, however, the service was excellent and our server was just lovely. The food came out hot and timely and overall we just had a relaxing meal. It was just what we needed! Can't wait to return!

There are few other pizza places in Iowa, let alone restaurants that get me more excited. We make a point to travel through Traer.

Love that little places like this are scattered through Iowa. I hope to find more.
