This place has been half a dozen different pizza joints since I lived out here 15 years ago. This newest one I can't quite figure out. It says Nickalena's, and on their Facebook page it says "formerly Lee's." But all of the signs outside say Lee's; maybe they just changed over. And the bar upstairs seems to be somewhat separate from the dining area downstairs. I'm guessing that the bar is still Lee's, and the pizza place is now Nickalena's. There are separate entrances, restaurant one on the right, downstairs, but there are interior stairs so you can move between the two.
It's very basic. Pizza and subs, a few tables, nothing fancy. The reason I came out was they have a pizza buffet, every day 11 to 1. About $15. And it's pretty good pizza. Thin and fairly crispy, lots of cheese, loads of toppings, party cut. A pretty standard Columbus style pizza. They had four on the table when I got there. A nice variety. Fresh and hot, and pretty darn good. I ate till I was stuffed. It's a value if you do that. You pay for drinks, and there is a fountain.
Service was minimal but friendly and helpful. If I lived out here again, I'd be here fairly often. And if you want a pizza buffet, there aren't that many options around Columbus, so if you are over this way it's worth hitting up. read more
