I was trying to find a quick , good place to eat near the hospital that would not be costly. I found One Guy on yelp and I'm glad I gave it a try. I'm back in town on business again and guess where I headed for lunch! You can't beat their pizza or calzones. All I can say is that I'm super satisfied! Give it a try. read more

You aren't an official Tech student until you have had a calzone from One Guy. Although they have recently expanded their menu, the best thing is still the original sausage calzone. This is one of my favorite meals and I don't even like italian sausage. One Guy is a small hole in the wall joint right across from campus. The staff is always friendly and the food is always fresh and straight from the oven to your table. The best part about One Guy is that it is cheap for the portion. The calzones are huge and are plenty to turn into two meals. Ask for a cup of sauce to go with the calzone. It will put it over the top in deliciousness. If you haven't already been to One Guy what the heck are you waiting for? read more

The hot wings were delicious! Highly recommend. The supreme pizza had a good flavor and the crust was nice and crispy on the bottom. After reading the reviews about the calzones, I was surprised at how much we did not like them. We ordered the supreme. It was really bland, which was so surprising. However, the crust was great. read more

Love their calzones. I would recommend their supreme calzone. It it's very tasty and a good value for the money.

Love this place! Always great and fresh! Can't go Wrong. I've eaten in but mostly carried out. The fire oven is cool for the kids to see. The staff is always friendly. Salads fresh and pizza hot! read more

Great delivery and local pizza! Excellent service and food was delivered fresh! Would definitely order again!

This is my favorite pizza joint in town. The owner is a standup guy who works his butt off to provide customers great food in a great environment. I messed up my order and he still made it right. I've been eating here for fifteen years and it has just gotten better. Love the expanded seating as well. Pizza, calzones, salads, apps...this place is awesome! read more

pizza slices were good but the real problem was the calzones we ordered tonight, ended up getting 3 of the traditional calzones(pepperoni, sausage, sauce and cheese) . picked up the food and when we started to eat and to our surprise the calzones were full of a ridiculous amount of sausage, a few pepperoni, and barely any sauce or cheese. it was really disappointing after hearing such good reviews :( i tried calling to talk to the manager and was left on hold for 10 but minutes before giving up trying to resolve this read more

One Guy from Italy University - Pizza Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

Right next to campus and pretty good pizza for if you're in a hurry! I'm not a fan of tomato sauce so I get a slice of the Alfredo and it is really good read more

This is probably my favorite pizza place in the State of Texas. Drove from Houston to attend Parents Weekend at Texas Tech. I ordered the meatball sub that was put into my hands on a paper platter and came smothered with mozzarella cheese. Obviously, it's a casual counter-type service. We arrived just ahead of the lunch crowd wave, and we expected to wait for the pizza slices both my guys ordered. Not the case at all. The sub sandwich runs BIG and my appetite usually runs more to the sparse side. BUT, I threw self control out the window. You may see it somewhere on University Avenue and 19th Street in Lubbock!! read more

Always delicious!! The pizza crust is amazing! I don't love the lobster ravioli. They're always really nice too.

The pizza here is awesome - being from North Jersey I have pretty high standards when it comes to pizza. I got three slices of cheese and a drink for $8... not to mention one slice is pretty much equal to two slices. One Guys is a great casual lunch spot and they are very accommodating. They can put pretty much anything into a calzone or on a pizza for you. I will say I wasn't impressed by the calzone I ordered... the ingrediants were not proportional... i.e. waaaay too many olives. I will mostly likely be back... for pizza! yum! read more

Who'd have ever thought that Lubbock would be a place for phenomenal pizza by the slice? I found out out about this place over ten years ago when I was in law school here. I decided to stop by here for a quick lunch on the way out of town. The slices of cheese pizza are still phenomenal and make for a quick, good lunch. Special bonus points for the wide variety of drinks, including both Coke and Pepsi products. If I end up back here ever, I am definitely going for more than one meal here. read more

I'm going to write this review in a bullet format, because there are a few things a first-time customer should know about One Guy's: -The location is great for business, but awful for parking. There's only about half a dozen spots in front of the store which seem to constantly be full, so be prepared to park farther away and walk during busier lunch and dinner hours. -You'll want to bring some cash with you, as they don't accept debit or credit cards. There is an ATM inside, but you'll almost definitely have to pay a fee to withdraw from it unless you belong to that specific bank (which you probably don't). -Two slices and a drink will run you about $6. This seems like a lot when you can get a whole pizza at Little Ceasar's for $5, but the slices they give you are HUGE--I've never left One Guy's unsatisfied no matter how hungry I was. -You will sometimes have to wait a while for your pizza depending on what you order and how busy they are. I've waited over 15 minutes before and as little as eight, so it really just depends on the situation when you get there. In the meantime, enjoy the free drink refills. Taste is highly subjective, so it's difficult to explain how and why this is the best pizza in Lubbock. All I can say is that it really shouldn't be compared to national pizza chains like Domino's and Pizza Hut--One Guy's is on a whole other level. Go in expecting something entirely different from what you're used to. I'm sorry to put this kind of thing in a review, but you really have to try it for yourself to understand. Enjoy, and tell 'em Cheese Guy sent you. :) read more

Ok, I'm a Tech alum and I love this place but I just had a really A-OK experience when I last went. Pizza: When you order a whole pizza, the crust is thick and the pizza is decent but nothing to really make me want to go back. The pizza by the slize is NY style and I think that is delicious and a bang for your buck (because you can have different toppings). Overall the pizza is a decent quality but nothing to write home to mom about. Mushrooms and some of the ingredients come from a can and are not fresh. Price: It is fair price, can't complain there. Location: Great location, right across from campus. I know they've moved since I've been at college (used to be under the Uloft. Service: Talk about taking a long time to get one pizza made. I know how long it takes to bake a pizza, doesn't take as long as we waited. I'm pretty sure after ordering we waited for about 30 minutes. For a pizza place, I'd say that's way too long. Overall, come here if you haven't before because its a Lubbock staple and its part of the college experience. read more

Amazing food! A little hole in the wall place that you should definitely check out. Their calzones and their pizza are great! They are a Lubbock staple having served the area for over 35 years. read more

This place is awesome!! Best calzone in town! There pizza is also good! Hope they open soon!

My first encounter with this restaurant was rather absurd. I was living in Del Rio, Texas training to be a pilot. We had to fly somewhere for gas and my instructor was set on Lubbock. The reason? This little pizza joint, which he claimed was really good. I was pissed. Why would I want to go to Lubbock instead of Austin or San Antonio? After my experience, however, One Guy From Italy made me reevaluate my opinion of Lubbock. I have only had the calzones here, so I know nothing of the pizza. The calzones are the perfect amount of cheese topping and just enough grease where you don't completely hate yourself. I have tried all the calzones here and the original sausage and pepperoni one is my favorite by far. The sausage has a little spicy kick to it, good stuff. So reading some other reviews on One Guy From Italy they seems to get attacked about the quality of their ingredients. So I will admit that the quality is not the best, but do you want to know what makes up for it? The fact that the calzones are $5.50. And did I mention the calzone is huge? I'm 5'4, and if I'm feeling really healthy, a half calzone would be enough for lunch. Although that rarely happens here, I take one bite and think to myself, "this calzone is sooo much better than fitting in to my skinny jeans." Also, One Guys is on the main strip of Texas Tech. So food standards here can be a lot lower for those broke students. So lastly, the service here is pretty good. Now, I live an hour and a half driving distance away from Lubbock. Around the time when I'm getting ready to drive back to the hellhole that is New Mexico, I call One Guys and place a take out order for 8-13 calzones for next week's lunch. Usually, this takes about 20 minutes. Can't beat that. Overall, price-to-pizza and tastiness ratio can't be beat. I'd stop here if you are in Lubbock. read more

This is a great pizza place. My wife and I were visiting in Lubbock and looking to grab a good slice. This place did not disappoint. We visited on a Sunday which was unfortunate because we were hoping to get the lunch deal, two slices and a drink for $7.00, but the deal only runs M-F 11-2. The house calzone was a great choice, I would definitely recommend it. They have plenty of large flat screens to watch the news or sports on which makes the atmosphere great. read more

What can I say, pizza is not created equal. We had a supreme which is a bit of everything. The onions and bell pepper were a bit chunky for me but it all tasted good together. The large pizza was definitely big enough for 4 people. The crust was very crispy on the bottom. The owners have a gold mine here being so close to the college and who better to eat good pizza than college students. And the pizza is not even the best part. The calzones looked huge and appetizing. There are so many items that looked good you would need a week to eat all of them. This is a must stop if your within the Texas Tech area. read more

Just tried this place out, the calzones are easily the best I have ever had. The place seemed pretty busy for a late Sunday night. The food was amazing and the staff was incredibly friendly. Highly recommend this place and sill definitely be going back to try more. Genuinely reminds me if a pizzeria that you'd see in New York. read more

One Guy is a national treasure! Ok well maybe just a Lubbock treasure, but you get the idea. The calzones set the bar for all the other calzones in the world, they are that good. I've been eating One Guy since I was in middle school, and then all through high school, my years at Tech, and now I take my own kids there. Today as I ate lunch with my family, 3 army servicemen walked in, in their fatigues. They went to the counter to order and the owner, Dario, told them all, "Your money's no good here." Good people, good food, it's a Lubbock and Tech tradition. Don't miss it. read more

When in Lubbock, One Guy's is one of the places we are sure to go. Whether choosing a calzone (my personal choice, with extra sauce on the side) or pizza by the slice (or pie), we are never disappointed with One Guy's. It's not just the food, either, honestly...this place was a frequent stomping ground when we were in school at Texas Tech (and even before that!), so between the fun atmosphere, the laid-back attitude, knowing the owner/manager for years, and LOVING the food, there are few places in Lubbock that we enjoy more than One Guy's! read more

WAY OVERRATED. Do not go here. Do not even walk past the joint. Tastes like plastic and there is minimal flavor for both the pizza and calzones. The meat inside tastes cheap as hell and its gross. And the ranch these fools are slinging, dog shit. They got some boof store bought garbage ranch. Theyre probably only around still because they have a good spot on university and get lucky. I have seriously debated opening my own pizza place next door to run this "one guy" bum out of town and give the people some descent pizza. And being "known for the calzones" ?!?! Major red flag and not a good thing read more

So the one place I pick to eat at in LBB turns out to be be really crappy.Based on the compendium of good reviews off this place, I am surmising two things. #1 - It used to be better. #2 - Most of the TT kids wouldn't know a good slice if it hit them in the head. The pizza had no taste, a crappy crust,and was just not good. I am certain there are better pizza joints in Lubbock. read more

Great service! They know my name and always treat me with respect... Can get a little busy in there. The best Calzone ever! The standard calzone comes with sausage, pepperoni and a little bit of sauce and cheese...huge and perfect! You can get the calzones with different ingredients, but I would call ahead as it will take longer. All this for a reasonable price too! Under $6 for the calzone and a drink during the lunch special (until 2) The pizza is decent too.. But the calzones are the way to go (especially at the University location- better than 50th). The calzones were so good we served them at my rehearsal dinner for my wedding! read more

It's been years since I graduated from Tech and I still crave this pizza. The calzones are really well done. The crust is flaky and very well made. They hand toss their pizzas, the dough is made from a master culture, and every time I go back here, I'm tempted to bring back to Oklahoma as much pizza and calzones as I can. I recommend the original calzone to anyone wanting a filling meal. If you have somebody with you to split food with, I recommend the sausage and jalapeno pizza. I happen to be pregnant now and crave this pizza more than ever. Earlier this summer, my sister sent me a picture of her and my brothers eating my favorite pizza. I got more than a little upset. By far, the best pizza to be found in Lubbock. I will probably never stop craving it. Were I not 9 months pregnant now, I would have talked my husband into going to a football game this year just so I could have my One Guy's fix. read more

The owner, Mr. Mozzamuto, is from Italy so there's definitely a degree of authenticity to the place. I've read in a couple of reviews that they use canned mushrooms which is unfortunate, but for me, the thing to order is the regular calzone (pepperoni & italian sausage). Get yourself a side of marinara and you've got yourself a $5 piece of Italian heaven. These are so good that I've never really tried much else. Hope this helps! read more

Pretty good food for a basic hole in the wall pizza shop. Calzones are ok, but aren't great. I have had plenty of better ones, but none of those have been in Texas. These have been the best calzones in Texas, but it isn't saying all that much. Cheap place to eat, practically right across from the main entrance of Texas Tech. So if you are college student and want to grab something quick to eat near the campus, I would recommend it. If you want calzones, these are decent ones. Other than that no real reason to go here. Two stars overall, Three based on the calzones read more

I don't come to Lubbock often; but when I do, I have to stop here! The pizza is fantastic, their calzones are satisfying, and the atmosphere is great for a family meal. read more

One Guy from Italy University - Pizza Near Me - Lubbock, Texas

To see this place rated so high is a mystery to me. My GF and I stopped by while passing through Lubbock. The people inside are friendly. They're open late which is nice, and their pricing is very good. Our bell pepper and mushroom pizza was so-so at best. Compared to other pizza joints I've eaten at, I've had much higher quality of ingredients. Yes, I understand I'm partial to pizza joints from my neck of the woods and I COULD count off five or six places from Austin that seem better than one guy from Italy, but I've also had better ingredients from Dominos or Papa J's. Overall, if you're really hungry and want to shovel in food for cheap, this place is great. If you're looking for any kind of gourmet pizza...not so much. read more

Always greeted with a smile and hello from the owner. He makes it a point to always be working and give each customer the best experience possible. The best calzone and pizza near campus. read more

One Guys is the single best place to get pizza in Lubbock. It's a locally owned and operated store with the owner/manager there nearly every day. The servings are enormous and the price is very fair. It does get extremely busy at peak hours but off-peak it's a great place to go to. The waitstaff is friendly and outgoing and the atmosphere is alive. The place is pretty small but it's cozy. Parking isn't fantastic but there are back lots that aren't but a minutes walk away. Love this place. If you haven't tried it you really should! read more

I have been coming here since 2009 and I have never been disappointed. The owner is exceptionally friendly. If you go often enough he will know your name, your back story, and your normal order. The food is delicious! I highly recommend the sausage pizza or a regular calzone. You won't be disappointed. The crust is crispy, delicious, and made fresh in house. I could go for the crust alone. If you want to see pizza dough flying in the air while munching on the best pizza in town, this is the place! read more

The calzones at this place are to die for. I've been coming here for 5 years and it's easily the best spot to get amazing NY style pizza and Italian food at a reasonable price. read more

Holy moly...I was blown away by One Guy on a recent visit to Lubbock. I checked my trusty Yelp app, and you guys didn't let me down. Even the staff at the hotel I was staying at recommended this place highly, and for good reason. It is a little hole in the wall pizza place with a massive history and reputation. The staff is super friendly, and they helped make some recommendations for other places to visit while in Lubbock. Those dudes were seriously awesome. The only thing more awesome was the pizza. New York style, and SO delicious. I savored every little bite to the very last. I liked it so much, I returned the next day to try their calzone, which was off the hook. If I ever find myself back in Lubbock, I will most definitely return! read more

This is one of my favorite places to eat in Lbk. It's so simple and so good every single time. I love their pizza!!!

I'm not a fan of their calzones... the reason you can get one and a soda for $5 is because One Guy's literally uses the cheapest ingredients they can buy. Go to their 50th Street location and get some real Italian . Their specials are always amazing and usually made with higher quality ingredients. read more
