I chose this place for lunch on my trip to Lawrence and I am so glad that I did. I sat up at the bar which had a great view of the wood fire pizza oven! Brian was bartending and not only did he provide wonderful service and local recommendations for my stay, but per his suggestion I tried out the brussels sprouts. They were some of the best that I have had. They were savory, crunchy, with a touch of sweetness from the saison cherries! He crafted me a cucumber gimlet off menu that was refreshing & delicious. And then between the 3 pizzas I narrowed it down to, he surprised me with the Bianco e Nocci. Reduced cream as the base, gruyere, mozzarella, crushed pistachios and some lemon zest and herb oil on top. Unique, light, and delicious. I was very pleased with my meal, and will for sure be making this a regular stop upon returning to Lawrence. read more

Woodfire pizzas, salads with light flavorful dressings. Great options for wine and beer. I recommend a reservation on the weekend. We got seated at a thin bar with backless stools - not very comfortable, but ended up being the best view in the house because we got to watch the pizzas being made. read more

My 1 year old and myself were turned away this evening at 7:15pm The young bar maid informed us they were no longer seating eventhough there were plenty of folks in the place. Presumably the early close was from a speckling of snow. Regardless, it was pretty classless to turn away a parent and child, in a rush to leave early, The last time I brought both of my sons and the help was curt and the time before the stew was half cold and service was fake nice. It's like there is a workplace sickness in the air of bad attitude. I have been bringing my older son there for close to 10 years or more and my younger just started going but that's good enough for me. Im done with them. Serving cold food and cold service, no thanks. read more

Lovely place on mass, with some great happy hour specials. Gf crust is not on happy hour, it's for full pizzas only. We got the full size fries and full size limestone salad, along with a NA spritz. The salad definitely needed some more seasoning. Their seasonal spritz that I got was really lovely! It was a chai fkavore read more

Visited this place for the first time tonight and loved everything about it. We sat at the bar and were waited on by Cal who was very helpful and a fantastic bartender. I started out with a Halfway to Scarborough and it was so delicious and had a touch of spice, Yummy!! My husband had a rumhouse old fashioned which he said was interesting and good. Our food choices were; hh salad, arancini and the restaurant week special "Greens, Egg and Ham"!!! All was delicious and everything on the menu looked appetizing. It is family friendly but also good for date night. We just loved the he gibe and will be back to try out some different flavors!!! read more

The staff was friendly at first, but then it took some time to place our orders and pay. The food was a bit overpriced for what you got. It was great tasting, but needed to split due to higher prices. The vibe was nice and quiet; good stop along Mass at. read more

forever my fav pizza place in the area! gotta go during happy hour and get the goat cheese croquettes

This review is all about dinner for two at a front window table at 8pm on Thursday before Labor Day. service: Alex G took great care of us. He was very helpful and professional, even though we were his last table of the night. Props to hostess who was also very accommodating and positive. bar: Handful of classic cocktails, enough wine choices, and good range of beers - although nothing too out of the ordinary. I drank a Free State Yakimanic IPA ($6, as of 8/2024). food: The Butter Leaf Wedge comes in two varieties, one has ranch with croutons ($10) and one has blue cheese dressing with pecans ($13). We went with the blue cheese choice and thought it excellent. Menu offers both classic pizzas and lots of innovative choices. The sausage ($19) was exceptional. Classic chewy cheesy crunchy char! details: Be sure to check their hours. They only offer lunch on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and they close at 8:30 during the week. Not a huge space, so reservations might be good idea during busy times. There are a few outside tables. Street parking on Massachusetts, so plan accordingly. read more

the food was so good! I had the Margherita pizza and it was amazing!!! the staff are nice and quick. I also had to try one of the local IPAs, the yakamaniac, since I haven't had it since college.

Limestone - menu - Pizza Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

If you are looking for an Italian like pizza place, this is the only place in Lawrence. They even have a typical stone oven that you usually find in Southern Italy. I highly recommend trying the homemade lemonade. Delicious. If you are looking for American style pizza you can go to papakenos or Minsky's. Limestone is more for traditional Italian pizza On the other hand , instead of the classic americanized pizza. I highly recommend Big Mill for a different dough. read more

This restaurant rightly is best known for its excellent pizza. But it has other merits worth considering. They have a surprisingly large choice of innovative "snacks," such as the spaghetti squash snack, cauliflower gratin, broccoli rabe, and shishitos. The happy hour is 4 pm - 5:30pm, which unlike many restaurants is 7 days a week. It tends to include some of the "snacks," The Limestone house salad also is often on the happy hour list. There are discounts on some wines by the glass during happy hour. At other times, the best wine buys are for the carafes, with the Barbera red wine having the best price, but it is not their best wine. There is a parking lot directly behind the restaurant on New Hampshire. But it is for exit only. If you park there, you will be able to exit the restaurant directly to that parking lot, but you will not be able to enter the restaurant through that lot, which is locked from the outside. If you park in that lot, you will have to walk around the block to Maine Street to enter through the front entrance. read more

We usually go 4:00-5:30 for Happy Hour. Two salads, two small pizza, two cocktails, and one split dessert later, we are very satisfied. Delicious food. Good service. Great value. #HarrisWalz2024 read more

I always give them a chance but they are so slow. Even when you call and they say a time. This time was especially special because not only was it slow, I didn't even get the correct thing. Arancini instead of goat cheese balls like my receipt taped on the box said. If you can't handle online ordering just don't offer it. Really disappointed. read more

So close to being great. All the makings are here but sometimes less is not more it's just less. The ingredients are solid but the sparse toppings were disappointing. We had the sausage pizza and the sausage was really nice, the sauce is nothing to write home about and the 4 pieces of cheese was really disappointing. We also had the spud and it could have been fantastic had they precooked the potatoes and they weren't so toothsome. Finally we had the Bianco e Nocci, it was quite nice. The service was good, they were busy we didn't have a reservation and were able to fit us at the bar. The restaurant itself was warm and inviting. read more

Great food fast friendly service easy parking out back my go to spot for pizza in Lawrence

Their pizza is the best. We haven't eaten pizza this good outside Europe! Friendly service. Nice atmosphere! We went back multiple times.

Ok let me start by saying i am not a Neapolitan pizza fan and decided to give it another try. I know alot of folks like this place but this place is like 715 mass, overpriced! 10 bucks for fries and 20 bucks for a pizza that when pick up the toppings slide off. I only go due to friends wanting to go there but no more. I just cant do it. So if you dont like neo pizza, save a lot of moolah and go elsewhere on mass like minskys, papakenos, big mill. The ambiance might not be the same but the pizza in my opinion is better and price is spot on. As you will see i reviewed limestone 8 months ago and ironically still had the same words! read more

The atmosphere is super nice and was perfect for my birthday dinner. The servers were nice and helpful and made it a good experience. All of our food was yummy and has been consistent every time we go. read more

Very good pizza. Will go again for sure. Service was very slow though. Not many folks there and our pizzas took about 40 minutes. Need to speed it up if you want that fifth star. read more

I live in NYC and this is my favorite pizza in the world. The rest of their food is amazing too.

Very good oven-fired pizzas and desserts! Everything is made in-house as far as I know, and even though $20/person is pricy for pizza, it's worth it on occasion. They've got a good variety of ingredients, and some creative combos (like my pizza that had white sauce, pistachios, and red onions). The espresso cheesecake I had was excellent as well. I wish they had some more affordable wine options, because everything was $9/glass and up. I also wish you could create-your-own pizza, but they discourage altering the recipes for most of the pizzas. However, I'm glad to see they have gluten-free crust and they are able to accommodate dairy and egg allergies. Service was very friendly and I enjoyed the warm restaurant ambience with the view to the open pizza kitchen. It's a busy place, so I would definitely recommend making reservations for the weekend. read more

I. Love. Limestone. If I had to choose my favorite restaurant, Limestone would be it. If you can, call ahead and make a reservation just to be safe! I love their back patio area - request it if you can! read more

Yum!!! I'm a horrible elite as I've not been keeping up with my reviews (although now that I think about it, its par for the course). Anyway...me, my guy, and a couple of our friends came here for dinner one Saturday (or was it Friday...) evening. We made the drive, predominately to support one of our bartender friends, but still ended up having an awesome time. Yummy food, great drinks, and a very casual vibe. We ended up ordering fries, 3 pies, a burger, and got to sample 2 desserts. I wish I could tell you exactly what they were...but honestly, it's been a minute. I think we had the Farmer, the Fig & Arugula, and...um...no idea what the last one was. FYI - the fig & arugula with prosciutto and blue cheese...heaven. Hey! I remember something!!! :) Dessert...um...was decadent (that much I remember...) and chocolatey? I know that we devoured everything, even though we were already bursting at the seams!!! Service was amazing and we were very well taken care of!! Overall, we had a really good time, a delicious meal, and got to visit with friends. We'll def be back next time we are in Lawrence!! read more

Limestone - Margarita pizza - Pizza Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

Delicious!! But, small rant first lol: I'm taking one star off for the headache of simply trying to find their menu/ description of menu items... no where to be found on their website, which is super odd/ frustrating to me. How do you not have your menu on your website? Lol Luckily the girl working, helped me navigate by phone, after asking her manager where the online menu was. She said to Google Limestone pizza menu... but we did again, and I let her know it only brings up only 5 items-- only 2 pizzas-- not the real menu. He said to go to "order online" , so I did, but It was still frustrating, since I had to go through links for online ordering/ then wanting me to set up a profile... oyyy. Needs simplifying, just to read the dang menu lol. Please fix this, owners. OKAY, RANT OVER lol. Onto the good stuff!! We ordered by phone, and got the Orechiette pasta dish (no clue if I spelled that right lol). It's delicious! So simple, yet bursting with flavor! My dads favorite. It's a funny round pasta, a flavorful thin tomato sauce, ground sausage, herbs and spices, and maybe some cheese? Couldn't tell. Normally wouldn't go for something this simple, but my dad raves about it. It was tasty for being a simple dish. For pizza: We ordered the Toulouse and apple: Italian sausage, apple, Gruyère cheese, honey drizzle. So good!! And my picky kid loved it!! Slightly sweet from the honey and apples, with the salty sausage and cheese! Second pizza: Love Supreme. It was sausage, pepperoni, kale, olives, mushrooms, and I forget what else. Simple, but good. Not the best veggie meat pizza we've had, but was decent. The guys didn't love how kale heavy it was. I didn't mind. I feel it needed a bit more flavor. We loved their homemade chili sauce. The workers were all helpful and friendly, pizza was ready in 30 mins (at 7:45 on a holiday week Wednesday- busy in there!!), and food was hot and good! We'll be back! Inside looked cute and cozy w a good atmosphere! I took a picture to show you all lol. read more

This is a tough one to write, because we did enjoy our pies and are grateful for their commitment to serve during the pandemic. Full disclosure that my standard for Neapolitan style pizza is very high. Having lived in Italy for years and growing up in California including San Francisco I've had my share of exceptional pies. The crust being a major part of the equation is one area where these guys lack slightly. A tad dry and grainy. The sauces and toppings could be more generous as well, particularly considering the well above market pricing. We had a selection of four different pies and a large order of their very tasty fries and with the REQUIRED 20% service charge our bill was $91! In nearby Kansas City, 1889 Pizza Napoletana offers a better product at a fraction of the cost. Again, the offerings were not awful but definitely not worth the exorbitant pricing. Sorry guys.‍ read more

Best pizza in Lawrence. Very good craft beer selection as well. Great ambience and friendly staff. You might need a reservation because they are often very busy. I love The Farmer - Pizza. Fantastic. read more

I ordered carry out the lady that answered the phone was very friendly and helpful. The pizza was very good. I enjoy wood fired pizza. The pizzas are 12" and they did not have a build your own pizza option. Located in a nice part of town and was busy. The restaurant had a good vibe. I showed up early for my food and sat at the bar for a drink. They had a pretty decent bourbon selection. I would go back again for pizza when I'm in Lawrence. I'd also recommend. read more

I went with the Brussels sprout pizza this time. Gruyere cheese, bacon, and sliced cherries seems like a weird combination, but it actually worked well. I would get it again. The crust is still a little spongy for my taste, but I didn't hate it. My wife got the Margherita pizza again and liked it as much as last time. Service was great. read more

We are quite familiar with Limestone Pizza, as we have enjoyed this restaurant for several years. This visit was different. The atmosphere was upbeat and enjoyable. The food was "meh." I have celiac so I always order GF pizza at all pizzerias. They must have changed their GF pizza crust since our last visit, which in the past was a nice quality, tasty crust. The crust I was served recently was a glorified cracker crust. I not only costs more but this was a very poor quality product. My husband and I also ordered our usual seasonal shrub. I'm not sure who is making the shrubs but they were not the tasty shrubs we have received in previous visits. These had flavor, but shrubs are a nice vinegary drink, these were not. So disappointed. We will not be returning anytime soon. read more

Best meal during my entire week in Lawrence! The place is not large and it does fill up quickly so be prepared to wait a bit. We arrived around 5:30 and were able to get a four-top without any trouble. Our serve was very knowledgeable about the local beers and the menu. We made our own "plate" with the olives and house made pickles. The olives were barely brined (and not pitted) with sprinkling of pepper. The pickles were large spears that had just the right balance of sweet and sour. I would have loved to sample some more of these offerings. We ordered a regular pepperoni and the NOLA. I kept going back and forth as to which one was the best. I would definitely order both again. Dessert was fabulous as well. (See the photos!) read more

Limestone is a perfect place when you want high quality, fresh made food from local and organic ingredients, but also want a laid back, casual vibe. I tend to lean towards the pizzas (they have a gluten free option as well, by the way), but I enjoy their salads, small plates and sandwiches too. The cocktails are always tasty and I enjoy getting cider there as well. Dessert is a must, even if you only have a few square inches of volume left in your stomach and must share. The selections rotate, but among my favorites from the past: a cobbler made with local peaches, topped with house made ice cream, and a salted caramel chocolate panna cotta. The patio is small, but in the right weather and if it's not full, is a lovely place to enjoy the happenings of Mass Street throughout your meal. read more

Limestone - Housemade limeades! - Pizza Near Me - Lawrence, Kansas

Love this place so much. Pizza is great. Service is always excellent. Seriously the best pizza dough in Lawrence.

Food: most items acceptable, if somewhat bland. Price: outrageous - I could buy lobster for the cost of one margarita pizza + (mandatory) gratuity and this in a college town. Service: I was sighed at over the phone for asking to place a take-out order. During another visit, the waiter exchanged three sentences with us. Smiles must be extra. Atmosphere: Cute. Props for requiring vaccinations and masks. (But they only checked the vax cards for half our party, so...inconsistent?) Misc: They charge for the chili sauce when you get it to-go. For two $15.50 pizzas, they can afford to give us gratis dipping sauce for each pizza. Summation: The pizza isn't good enough to cover the sour taste this restaurant leaves in your mouth. read more

It would simply be wrong to NOT leave a 5 star review for a place with such great gluten free pizza! I was delighted to find Limestone on a lazy Saturday afternoon while strolling Mass street. Our server was hilarious, the food was top notch (and allergen friendly!), and the location is prime. I have many old haunts when I come to visit Lawrence, but I'm eager to add Limestone to the rotation!! read more

I used to like this place a lot but food was good. Not your typical food menu with lots of interesting flavors but it seems now if you don't have a reservation and you walk into three-quarter empty restaurant you seem to get a penalized. I raved to a friend of mine from out of town about the place. The hostess man was acting like he was put out because we were walk-ins. OK we didn't have a reservation but just say we are "full", but he seemed to want a punishes us for not putting in a reservation. he left us standing at that podium, which is in the way of people walking back-and-forth and he seem to start cleaning tables and left us standing there at that time. Another couple walked in thing they didn't have reservations either so he made us all stand there like dummies while he continue to work, and some waiters standing behind him, just stood and stared at us. Finally, he decided he wanted to seat us and when he did, he said how many? When I first walked in there, I said, do you have a table for two - he got strange and bitchy was his attitude. I said let's go somewhere else and left. I'm not going back. The food is a wait sometimes and good but I don't need that kind of service or attitude. They need to do something about the seating there either you're cramped all the way in the front or you're sitting right back to back in those strange booths listening to the people behind you. Another time there was 40 minutes before they closed and they turned us away.., read more

Love their GF pizza crust and different pizza toppings. Also a great place for an old fashion. We love sitting at the bar!
