They have movie figures and monsters, memorabilia, juke boxes, working arcade games, and just TONS of stuff to look at. Great for kids and adults who want to take a trip down Memory Lane. We were greeted and seated promptly by the staff, and asked for our drink orders. They do have soft drinks and even beer if you'd like. We ordered The Diana Ross - Supreme Pizza (get it). It came with all the good stuff, and was served hot out of the oven. Very nice! The wait for the pizza was short, but it was a Thursday night. We had to park in front of the AMC Pacer (a real 1970s car) since the parking lot was full. If the parking lot is full, you can park on the street too. The arcade games looked really great and the kids in the restaurant were playing them. Service was good, the food was great, and the price was very reasonable. A large group had a party there - the kids had a blast! Try this place out!

But you might want to fit it in…read more A couple blocks from Rt 38 you'll find Old School Pizza - and appropriately named pizza pub that once used to be Malta Grade School. The interior of OS is a site-seeing tour. Tons of memoriabia from the past. They have a giant dining room, a separate bar room and a few rooms with video games. But above all this is their amazing pizza. We had a Cheese and Hawaiian pizza and really liked both. A size large here probably feeds any 3 people. Bring your quarters for the video games and pinball machines. This place is a blast. Cheers.

After hearing about all the hype about Uncle Lars, plus everyone who lives around here talks about…read moreit, I knew it was time for me to check out Uncle Lars. I was warned that pizza can take a while so I was waiting at 4pm for the place to open and I was 10th in line already. Luckily, I saw that they also take online orders too so I did that while on call. For dinner, we got 2 12" pizzas.. One was the Zach attack (sausage, Italian beef and giardinara) and the other was a customized veggie pizza, plus a side of cheesy bread. We did order pickup since we lived ~15 mins away in the backroads. The location was easy to find, and parking should be easy since it is in a big lot. Depending on the time, it could be hard to find but in Plano...I doubt that. The service was great. There was a lot of friendly people I encountered. When I got home, the smell was amazing. The cheesy bread was very cheesy. It contained, probably, at least a 1lb of cheese. The side was sauce was delicious and I liked how it was a thick pizza sauce and not runny. Maybe it was due to the 15 min drive, but I thought these pizzas were tavern style... thin and crispy. While the pizza was delicious, it was thin but it was not crispy. It was just a basic thin pizza. However, it had a lot of toppings on it! My wife got the double dough, and for a 12" pizza...it was too much dough for her. She said she will like to try the normal next time. Overall, the pizza was great. The quality was top notch. Flavors were there for a great pizza. I live in an area that my options for pizza is Papa Johns, Domino's, or Pizza Hut... if I had to compared to those local ones... Uncle Lars is 20 out 10, if not more. However, for a pizza itself... it was still delicious and I would get them again. Since the location is easy and they do have a decent amount of tables (depending on when you arrive)...I may try eating in next time.

A lot has to do with not having enough product on hand. The prices are pretty okay at least. Coolest interior of a restaurant in this town to be certain. It's got shit tons of memorabilia to check out. There's concert posters, guitars, and lots more great stuff. A lot to look at while waiting for food. It's about $12 for a small pizza. Comes with choice of a couple toppings, and we got it with giardiniera and mushrooms. The pizza was pretty good to be honest. Got to be about the strangest hours for a pizza place ever.

Overpriced, mid-tier pizza. Can't believe paid 66$ for a pizza, beef roll, and a dozen boneless…read morewings. Prefaced with I've never been to Illinois till earlier this week, ergo unaware of quality and what restaurants people will keep going through patronage, I have spent the last few days checking out restaurants on Yelp. Noticed this was a surprisingly highly rated spot, even though the photos didn't look that great. Through ordering online , placed an order for a small pan pizza , not realizing (isn't listed on their website) that adding any toppings is 1.25$ more each; like a 23$ small pizza. It appears the pizza had its toppings put after the sauce, and cheese on top, leaving an unsatisfying appearance and feeling I would've needed to order "extra cheese" to get a normal pizza. The exterior of the crust was hard, like baked too high of a temp for too long, and crunched like a cracker with the dough being dense and flavorless. The "beef roll" appeared to be their small dough folded over into a 12"x8" rectangle and cut into 1"x3" long pieces , and dusted with an Italian seasoning. Thin shaved beef inside, opted for pepperoni in it too. It was alright, again the crust put me off, the au jous that comes with it was watery and bland, and for 20.50$, felt like an overpay. Personally I like getting boneless wings with pizza, so opted for a dozen of those for us. Limited flavors , went with "hot", which was no hotter than Franks red hot. If they were fried, they steamed inside their foil and styrofoam container, and were received soggy and soft. Nothing noteworthy on taste or experience there.. beyond the 16.75$ charge, making each quarter-sized piece like 1.40$ each All in all impression: overpriced. I wouldn't go back, and if this is the best rated pizza in town, think I won't be going out for pizza around here the duration of my trip, least it be overpriced for mediocre food again.

This pizza impressed me because it's exactly how I like pizza…read more I don't care for deep dish or thin crust. I like balance in the sauce, cheese, and toppings. Too many pizza places overdo it with the sauce and/or cheese and it just creates a sloppy mess and, when it cools, a textural nightmare. This pizza's crust is perfect--it's crispy, but it's not super thin. It can actually hold the toppings. There's a good amount of sauce and it has a nice flavor of tomatoes and herbs. The cheese is nicely browned on top, and also a great amount. I like cheese but it's gross when it's just glommed on. The bites of sausage on top have great flavor and, most importantly, they don't have the weird squidgy texture of cheap meat. I can't speak to the restaurant experience because we ordered delivery. The service insofar as fulfilling the order was fine--the food arrived in a reasonable timeframe considering it was clearly freshly made. It was a touch on the pricey side for pizza but I think still reasonable given how filling and delicious it is.
