Everything is always consistently good every time we visit! For Mother's Day we decided to celebrate it here, we tried the vodka pasta, and it did not disappoint, it was incredibly flavorful, very cheesy, and the portion size was good. We added crispy chicken to it, which was the perfect addition. We also ordered the alla vodka sandwich, which is a staple for us. It's a usual for a reason, the bread is always so soft and it's delicious. For our appetizer, we went with the fried calamari; but the portion did seem a bit less than what it usually is. We ended the meal with the tiramisu, which is always a solid, dessert choice here. Beyond the food, we love coming back because the atmosphere is really pleasant and the staff are always so welcoming and kind. Highly recommend read more

I've had Lisa's quite a few times by delivery and my BF and we really enjoy their pizza. They have some interesting toppings on offer and fun pizzas and plenty of choices for meat-eaters and vegetarians alike. I have not tried any of their non-pizza menu items yet, so I can't speak to them. I also can't vouch for their restaurant space, since we just get delivery. They do a great Milwaukee cracker tavern crust. The whipped ricotta topping is yummy and novel. We are fans overall, but I do think the prices are a little high. I love to support a small business but our delivered order ends up costing us as much as a fine dining evening out. Still, this is one of two or three pizza places we regularly order from in Milwaukee and it always hits the spot. read more

It's a cute little space with AMAZING pizza. I had the regular crust and the Detroit, and both were wonderful. Service was great initially, but unfortunately I went on a Friday night, and they were just understaffed. They have a huge volume of takeout orders, and a lot of people coming in as well. I hope they can hire some additional help soon to be running with maximized efficiency! read more

Amazing people and great service. Had the Detroit pizza and it was the best I've ever had. Tremendously good sausage and crispy sides and bottom. 5 stars. The staff is friendly and engaging. Give it a shot! read more

Lisa's Pizzeria - The Detroit pizza is amazing. - Pizza Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Came to Lisa's Pizza with some friends. It's on the east side of MKE, and worth a visit! We tried the thin crust with cheese, sausage, mushroom, and onion, it was super flavorful with a nice crisp. We also tried the Detroit-style which was thick, cheesy, but overall just ok. I did like the thin crust a lot, so definitely worth a try! read more

First, I think the food is a 5, but they forgot to send my beverage with my order....sadness. But on to the good stuff. The cheese breadsticks were not what I was expecting. They were thick and airy in the middle with an excellent outer crunch. And the clearly use very good mozzarella. I could have used just a touch more marinara, but very delicious. I ordered a deluxe pizza. This had an amazing amount of toppings. The crust was delightfully thin and crispy, even after a delivery. I think I enjoyed the sausage the most. Excellent flavor. I would order again. read more

Very picky pizza eater here ... best pizza in mke. On par with better Chicago pub pizzas

Amazing Pizza! Great Customer Service! On the Eastside of Milwaukee Lisa's Pizza is located. A small beautifully decorated restaurant with a relaxed atmosphere. I order from there at least every other week! Try my personal favorite Large Deluxe pizza with basil and spinach and a garden salad with shaved Parmesan cheese and Vinaigrette dressing! read more

Really enjoyed Lisa's pizza! The crust was crispy and toppings and cheese tasted fresh. We got the pizzas take out and it worked great. The pizzas were ready when they said they would be, which I really appreciate! Hate picking up cold pizzas! My boyfriend picked up the pizzas and said the restaurant inside was adorable and a great vibe, so will have to check it out dine in next time. read more

Tried Lisa's for the first time and went on a Tuesday to take advantage of their specials, 1/2 off pitcher of beer and buy one get one half off pizza. Really enjoyed the pizzas, two different styles made pretty well with quality ingredients. The build your own Detroit style with Wisconsin Brick Cheese and pepperoni was slightly over done but that didn't detract from the flavor. The slight umami hit from the dough balances out the touch of sweet from the sauce and the fattieness of the pepperoni. The pub style had a strong crust with pepperoni and a dollap of ricotta cheese on each slice with a drizzle of hot honey. I didn't get the heat of the honey but overall felt it was a great pairing. If you've been wanting to go, do it. read more

Whenever a restaurant comes under new ownership, there is always a question of what will happen with the recipes that made it noteworthy. Lucky for us, the new owners (Hannah and Dean) kept what worked and added their own amazing additions, backed by their own developing culinary backgrounds and experiences. For example, along with the traditional sauce that made Lisa's pizza so delicious, there is also Hannah's own dessert recipes, an espresso martini made with Dean's own cold brew coffee recipe and the garlic bread, also created by Dean. While small changes have been made to the interior, with more slowly on the way, you will still find the dining room dimly lit and intimate. Although service was a little slow to start, our girl who seemed to be running the whole show did the best she could. Then Dean arrived, and he did an excellent job engaging and assisting us. He was kind enough to answer all our questions and make recommendations. The large cheese, sausage, mushroom and onion pizza we shared was fantastic and made with a generous amount of toppings. The combo plate veggies had a crispy coating, which kept their texture tender but not soft. The cheesy garlic bread was to die for. One of, if not THE best, I've ever had. DO NOT go here without ordering some! Then there's the Tiramisu. WOW. You could taste the coffee, although not overwhelmingly so, and the cream was fluffy and not overly sweet. Lisa's has been a Milwaukee staple, and it was wonderful to experience the classic flavors that brought us back, as well as new flavors that will keep us coming back for more! read more

The ordering process was very easy and smooth one quick phone call. The lady on the phone was very nice, but I ordered from their late night menu and I was told when I asked for extra sauce that it was a generous amount of sauce but when I got my pizza, there was no sauce on it, except around the edges of the crust very disappointing And when I called the lady back on the phone while she was understanding which I hundred percent, give her credit for there was no mention of talking with the morning staff who make the pizza about correcting the issue I did come back two days after to get a refund and the process took less than two seconds she took the pizza and gave me my money back I just wanted this to be a warning for whoever orders here don't order off the late night menu. The photo is from 20 minutes after I got my order. read more

Lisa's Pizzeria - Cheese pizza - Pizza Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Oh man a Milwaukee pizza spot. There is something pretty special about the crust; melts in your mouth almost cracker like bar pizza. Man. Takes me back to waitressing and bartending at a place by the airport where every pizza was perfection. I digress. Lisa's is a cute spot, a few stairs up. My dad and I went and it was very chill: our server was nice and quick, and the food was excellent. Fried mushrooms, and that pizza. Perfection in crisp crust, great cheese, savory sauce. Such a winter. Definitely a go to if you're up in the area and if you aren't, make your way there! read more

The new owners have greatly improved the service. The pizza was the perfect cracker crust and the tops were fresh and well blended.

Amazing atmosphere! Great pizza, and great service through everyone in the building. Favorite pizza on the east hands down.

Went for the second time since the ownership change and sadly it will be the last. The sauce and the crust are not the same as it was previously. This is really sad as Lisa's has been my favorite pizza in Milwaukee since the 80's. read more

The MEATZZAA pizza is to die for! Full of meats, not greasy, juicy thin crust. Great menu and selections of wines.

We just went to Lisa's pizza for the first time with the new owners. All I can say is it was amazing! The server Brad was wonderful! The food was delicious. Highly recommended! read more

Pizza and Salad were awesome. Old school Milwaukee pizzeria. Definitely will be back.

Pizza is so great! Tables are a bit close together for the 2 person tables, we both kept getting our chairs bumped :/ food was great though, but I'd take it to-go next time due to poor seating for small tables read more

Lisa's Pizzeria - Half & half Hawaiian Heat (minus onions, add jalapeño) and Meatzzaa - Pizza Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Thin crust pizza is our jam. That being said- pizza is never good for take out- especially thin crust. We thoroughly enjoyed Lisa's. And will be back. The sauce has good flavor, same with sausage.. and loved the pepperoni on pizza as well. We looked online and saw they had three sizes to order- mistakenly ordered "large"- but got the 14"- instead of the 16". Lisa's was super kind and even offered to put in another order for us- but it really was our error... and we lived with our own mistake. Only had two working inside (working their butts off)- so a large group of people were waiting for tables on the stairwell ... which is hard to do takeout with a bunch of people in a queue. If you love thin crust pizza... out this on your list- it's a definite keeper. read more

Lisa's Pizzeria - We're here!! - Pizza Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

I have been eating at Lisa's my entire life, just went tonight for the first time since the ownership change...wow...the pizza was as good as ever and we also sampled a few of the new items (Caprese and hot honey wings) Caprese was excellent - presented in a way that you would see at an upscale Italian restaurant and the portion was huge too....but the wings may have stolen the show - seriously perfect - crunchy, juicy and just right amount of hot honey. TLDR - Lisa's is better than ever - our server was awesome too - he was a one man show out there. read more

In an effort to try to support more local establishments this past year, my husband and I realized we had been driving past Lisa's on Oakland Ave for quite awhile, and never stopped to try it out. WE ARE SO GLAD WE DID!! We've only done take out, and can't wait to dine in when we feel more comfortable to do so - the interior is comfortable, quaint and everything you'd hope for in a neighborhood Italian place! We've had the French Fried Eggplant ($8.00), which is served with a delicious marinara, and would highly recommend. It gives Sazs eggplant a run for their money, which was always my benchmark! The Calamari ($7.50) is also a nice starter, and a good portion for sharing too! But then, the PIZZA! I'm a die-hard thin crust girl, and by golly this is great thin crust pizza. We always do a build your own pizza in our house, and did 2 larges for 3 people. We had some leftovers, but honestly, you should probably just get the XL size because you won't want this pizza to end! Also, if you like sausage on your pizza, theirs is homemade, and delicious! Can't wait to continue supporting Lisa's Pizza, and we are glad we have a new go-to place in the neighborhood! read more

Great service! Good pizza. Manager was really kind and gave good recommendations. It's a small place but really good food.

Staff was very friendly, inside was cute and good vibe. Service was good. I got maggies Detroit pizza and it was good but very bready without much sauce (little dry). Would go back and order something new to try! read more

Just ate here. The staff was great our server super friendly and great. Other then that food was not good. We ordered onion rings. Could tell they were processed from a box, chewy (not in a good way) and thick coating very little onion. The pizza was cooked but mediocre. Nothing stood out. read more

The "new" Lisa's just doesn't live up to what it used to be. Not sure what the new owners are doing here. They seem to have a huge employee turnover which leaves them short staffed with slow service and mediocre food. The pizza is not the same as it used to be and the prices have gone up. read more

Lisa's been our local favorite for decades and decades. The new owners are making some changes but the pizza remains excellent. Gone is the old jukebox box and instead we get an incredible playlist of tunes from the 40's, and 50's. Craft cocktails are being added to the mix. Things are still shaking out but I'm thinking this is all going to be great. read more

Excellent service from our server Steelie. Food was delicious and wait time was reasonable considering they were busy. Place is clean and cozy. Can't wait to return. read more

I'm a Lisa's fan and loyalist. I've been coming here for 30 years and the pizza rarely disappoints. Today my kids wanted Ian's so instead I picked them up Sal's because Lisa's was across the street. I got mine the boys got there's. The sauce was sweet and the crust was flakey and perfectly crisped. I'm now going to nap Zzz read more

Lisa's Pizzeria - Boom empty pizza boxes Delish! - Pizza Near Me - Milwaukee, Wisconsin

Been here a few times now. After tonight, I don't know if I'd return. We stopped at Lisa's before catching a show. We had about an hour and a half to kill and we figured we had plenty of time. Boy was I wrong. We didn't get menus for 20 minutes, our salads didn't come for 30 minutes. And at the 45 minute mark when our appetizer still hadn't come, we started to get a little worried. The waiter came back to tell us our appetizer was almost ready and we asked him how much longer we should expect to wait as we didn't have a lot of time. And he responded with what was perhaps the rudest thing a waiter has ever said to me, "You know - I've worked here a long time and I'm not used to people being so impatient." He then went on to rant about how there's only 4 people in the kitchen and this is a "family" business blah blah blah. Meanwhile, I look around the restaurant and there are only 5 other tables seated and maybe one or two people came in for carry out. From there, I think he recognized he had crossed a line and offered to comp our appetizer and offered us a free drink. However, after 1 hour 15 minutes, our pizza finally came and we had to box it up and take it to go as we had run out of time. Look, I understand restaurants are a bit slower post Covid with the staffing shortage. But waiting an hour+ for a pizza seemed a little excessive and when we simply asked how long it would be for our food to come out, we would have appreciated a little less attitude. Still give them 3 stars as the food that we were able to eat was pretty tasty. read more

Very good pizza and very friendly staff . My order is always prepared to perfection. Lisa's gets it wall the time.

Very slow delivery & not great pizza. delivery took an hour and 20 minutes & pizza arrived cold. Just a hard pass for me.
