    Stopped by One Guy from Italy for a quick bite before heading out to Llano Estacado Winery. When you arrive parking can be a bit tricky but you can park on a side street or off university. I'd recommend not parking on university as backing out of the parking spot can be difficult. When you walk in you'll feel like you've been transported to a New York pizza restaurant. To order you'll walk up to the counter to place your order, the cashier will hand you a number and then you'll select a table to sit at. I highly recommend ordering the calzone here, and staying away from the pizza slices. I haven't quite figured out what it is but the calzone is by far the best item on the menu. I ordered the house calzone which has pepperoni and sausage. If you are looking for a quick bite and a calzone, definitely check out One Guy from Italy.

    One Guy is a Lubbock staple! We went here all the time in college and always make sure to get it when we are in town for a game. The food is always top tier with the best college town vibes! It can be pretty busy on game days but it's always worth the wait!

    This restaurant is a Lubbock staple especially if you go to Tech. The pizza is always really solid, and it's a lot of food when you get it, I always feel full after going here. I went today and the staff were super nice, super kind people and overall great all around. I also like the ambiance of the place it's very Italian and they even have a bunch of godfather posters, which is a great movie. Would highly recommend

    Good pizza. Full stop. It's not fancy by any stretch. The decor looks like it was old 20 years ago but it's a college pizza place right across from campus. Would definitely go back. The calzones looked good.

    Watery noodles with ketchup?

    So disappointing! We had two friends recommend this place. We ordered a supreme on cauliflower crust, hold the green pepper add jalapeno. Arrived without jalapeno and covered in green pepper. Totino's pizza would have been better for what we paid for lunch. We won't even talk about the kid's spaghetti

    I used to eat here when I went to Tech and it was great. I brought my daughter here one night now that she is attending Tech and wanted her to experience this place. We came in about 9pm on a Sunday night. The sign on the door said it was open until midnight. There were several others in the place eating but not a big crowd. I had talked up this place and was excited to share it with my daughter. We ordered a pizza, a calzone and sat where we could watch the football game. The Chiefs were playing and I figured since Patrick Mahomes is a Tech legend the game would be on. We got our food and as we began eating they started stacking the chairs on the tables, turned off the tv's and acted as if they were closing. The food is still good, but the staff was really bad this night. They were rude, of little help, didn't provide what we asked and rushed us out of there. It appeared they had more important things to do.. It was a disappointing experience for me as I had really talked it up. I doubt I will go back after that experience even though it was likely just a bad group of people working that night.

    I am stopping in Lubbock spending the night. A friend highly recommended this restaurant. I ordered a pepperoni and sausage calzone and my husband ordered the wings. What you see in the photo is all the sausage that was in my calzone. There was only 4 slices of pepperoni. I was very upset but I went ahead and ate it. I was tired and have been driving all day. Plus I have never had to purchase marinara sauce for a calzone. Usually they are complementary. Overall taste was ok. Most of my calzone consisted of crust. I guess you can say I ate nothing but crust. But like I said I was tired. My husband did enjoy his wings.

    Chicken Parmesan Sub

    Very disappointing. I ordered a chicken parmigiana sub and it was inedible. Essentially chicken nuggets on a bun with canned spaghetti sauce. Not worth it unless you have recently eaten an entire bag of gummies from Green Gorilla.

    The house calzone...a house specialty!

    food is mediocre at best, everything was watery for some reason and protein (specifically chicken) seemed low quality and processed

    Where the hell do you park?

    It's tough. Mainly on the side of the building. But so worth the walk. Park by Insomnia cookies and you can walk both dinner and dessert off

The service and staff make you feel welcome, they're friendly, quick - all the things you could ask for to enhance your experience. They offer it. The location is nice if you're anywhere near the Tech campus area. It's right on Broadway. Parking can be tough if it's busy. There is street parking and a lot, but neither are the most plentiful. The food is the real star though. Their wings are incredible, and they don't mess around with the spice. They can be hot! I love the jalapeño poppers. Where else gives you a real popper and not just a frozen and deep fried version? As for the pizza...I'm pleased to say it's the best part of an already awesome place. It doesn't matter what kind you get, you'll be happy with your choice. The Last Call Pizza deserves it's own paragraph. I think I can confidently say it's my favorite pizza of all time. And the second time I had it, confirmed just that. Look at this description - "Homemade smoky pizza sauce and alfredo sauce, topped with cheese, bacon, sausage, sunny-side-up eggs, and drizzled with our sriracha sauce". It's INCREDIBLE! Can't recommend this place enough, if you're in Lubbock get over here!

    I have been to Capital Pizza in Tech Terrace many, many times through college, after graduation,…read moreand on many revisits to Lubbock, and I will proudly say it is the best pizza in Lubbock. I will start off by saying sometimes the wait is excruciatingly slow for dine-in, whether it is almost empty or packed. However, takeout is usually pretty on top of it. Capital wins out if you like your crust a little doughy. There is this intense softness to their pizza that it is almost like tasting a cloud. It is legit. Some personal favorites of mine are their Hot Honey pizza, but this last time I ordered a Classic Margherita, and I loved it. It is really like no other pizza place I have been to, and I always find enjoyment in their immensely doughy crusts. It used to be only order over the phone, but it is nice to order online using Slice now because you do not have to preplan and prepare for a phone call. You just pick your pizzas and order. It is great. I enjoy dining in as well. The place feels pretty small, but there is a big overflow room in the back on busy nights. They have a full bar, which is pretty cool for keeping the party going. You do have to pay a little more than at your typical pizzeria, but I think the tradeoff is worth it. Capital Pizza, you have my heart. RIYL: Dough for days.

    I have been having capital pizza since I was a student at Texas Tech and have continued to order it…read moremany times in my visits back since. Our favorite is the carnivore pizza + the breadsticks with sides of ranch (obviously). 9/10 I order my pizzas to go, but even then in the time from ordering to pick up the customer service is extremely friendly and attentive.
