Dive? Absolutely, but with excellent pizza and top notch hot sandwiches. 11 of us after golf today for dinner & beer. I loved the meatball sub - available in half or whole. My buddy got the beefsteak Stromboli with mushroom sauce and he raved about it. Hot Ham & Cheese? You got it and similarly terrific. Most others had pizza of various ilk. No complaints. This is a regular haunt for us when we golf nearby. read more

I just had Pasquales catered at my job. I do not say this lightly: this was some of the best pizza I have ever had in my life. A coworker told me they create a pizza, then put more dough and toppings over that to create two layers of deliciousness. I loved every moment of it. The cheese was superb, the incidents were delicious and fresh. I usually don't do reviews, I'm not the type. But I had to this time, just so I could give them 5 stars. This was an amazing experience. read more

Wonderful pizzas! We are not close to them but it is worth the drive. Reminds me of my hometown favorite pizza which is phenomenal. They have a buffet at lunch time weekdays. Try them once and you will be back. A few other menu items also. read more

Since the health score has improved over the years I finally decided to give this place a try. This is not good pizza. Saying that this is good pizza is equivalent of saying McDonald's serves a gourmet burger or Taco Bell serves authentic Mexican cuisine. These are bottom of the barrel ingredients with top shelf pricing. $18 for a 12 inch pepperoni and fake Italian sausage pizza is twice what you should be paying for it. Just buy a frozen pizza for $5, add some fresh ingredients 1/2 way through the cook time and I guarantee you'll have a better pizza than what they serve here. read more

Had there pizza last night and it was delicious . Bread sticks were delicious as well. I encourage everyone to try there menu

In town for my middle daughter cheerleading competition. We stayed near the airport and struggled to find a lunch spot anywhere. We stumbled across this hole in the wall pizza joint. It was hard to find as it is tucked behind the planet fitness and not visible from the road or main parking lot. The kids and I got a large chEddie pizza to split. As far as flavor it was very good. I've been to Indianapolis a few tones and have tried a couple of the higher rated pizza establishments. I honestly would rate this taste just below Bazbeaux and ahead of jockamo upper crust pizza. The pizza itself is served in square thin style slices. However it does have a good thickness to it and a nice crispy crust. The inside was spacious and pretty well kept. As stated it is a hole In the wall so not exactly fine dining. But more then adequate enough for a pizza joint. All in all glad we accidentally stumbled across this place (almost could t find it). The only thing keeping the rating from being a 5 star rating is my wife got the spaghetti i and she did not like it. I tried it And it was very lacking. So try the pizza! The pizza tastes great! read more

See all

Clean and customer service is very good Food was very good and clean up was good . They have a private room for parties

Great , really great pizza! Great cheese, great crust! Worth the $$$! I have yet to have a bad experience with Pasquale's! My wife is a "pizza queen" and has given it a 5 out of 5 stars m! read more

Delicious cheesy garlic bread! The staff is friendly and helpful. The ambiance is perfect for a great pizza place. Highly recommended!

I am really disappointed. I got the beef Stromboli and this picture says it all. Everything was very processed. My husband came here a year or so ago, and he felt like there was no more love in the food. It's pizza come on... makes me sad when small businesses lack this hard read more

Pasquales - Beef Stromboli - Pizza Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

Pasquales is a hidden gem if you want good pizza snd sandwiches! It is tucked in on the back side of a strip mall. The staff was good for the most part. The pizza and Hoagie sandwich was great!! We were traveling so could not keep our leftovers which was our only regret!! read more

Pizza was so good! We've been back since. My daughter is a very picky eater and only eats at the more common pizza chain places but she tried their pizza and loved it. Would recommend 100% read more

Nearly all the Pasquales are closed. Thank goodness for Kentucky Ave and East Washington St. Today at Kentucky Avenue. What a treat! Hoagie delicious and service fantastic! Thank you! read more

I've been coming here since high school, and the food and the service never change. "Serviceable" is how I think they are best described. The quality of the buffet food is good, but the quantity is sorely lacking. As it has been for the past 20 years, the wait time between refills is long. The staff seems to notice when big eaters arrive (we saw a pack of six hungry teenage boys decimate the buffet while we were there), and they try to play chicken, barely restocking the food until people give up and leave. They get two stars because there is something about their garlic bread and pasta sauce that I find addicting. Every once in a while, the crave hits and I have to go. Then I struggle through the service and the crave is abated another year. read more

I've been eating here since I was a kid. It never disappoints. Everything is good which makes decisions on what to order difficult at times.

It's a great little local pizzeria. The staff is friendly and there are a good amount of menu choices to be had if you're looking for something different. read more

Below mediocre. Lasagna was straight up Stouffers frozen lasagna, all the way down to the processed meat "bits". Spaghetti was tolerable, along with the personal pizza. Garlic bread was nice. Counter service, staff was friendly. Got to say it's probably the safest place to eat though. Law enforcement must get a good discount there. read more

Lets start with food. Their pizza is good. I love their crust. It's not thin crust but it's not super thick. Its also cut where there is no outter edge crust and corners. The corners are my favorite. On Tuesday night from 5 to 8 they have a dinner buffet. Get there early to have a variety. It gets busy! They also have a lunch buffet during the week. I do not recommend the stromboli though! They do offer beer . Now lets talk location. It is in mars hill area of Indianapolis. Not the greatest area but by far not the worst. The building needs a face lift. The inside of restaurant looks has it hasn't been remodeled since 80s. But dont judge a book by it's cover! They also have pictures with a banner from all around the world. This is our favorite local pizza place! read more

The lunch buffet is terrible. The pizza is cold with rubbery like crust. We asked for fresh spaghetti and they put water in it and made it mushy. We spent almost 40 bucks here and it was very disappointing. And we are still here waiting for fresh food and they are closing it down Instead. read more

I was in town visiting from out of town and didn't want any more fast food. Looking for nearby Italian restaurants and found this place. Had some spaghetti with meatballs and a meatball hoagie. Both were good. Not a bad find in flyover country. For those criticizing a pizza buffet... shame on you for even seeking out a pizza buffet. That is NOT how you buy any good pizza. read more

I was leery about going to a pizza buffet on Kentucky Avenue, but my co-workers wanted to go, so I tagged along. Our party of four was the only females eating in the restaurant. There really needs to be a larger quantity of food at Pasquale's during a workday lunch. Whenever a new pizza was put out on the buffet, the men dining in the restaurant swooped in on it like vultures and it was gone within seconds. We had to wait around at the buffet to be there when a new pizza came out, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten any. The pizza that we did eat was just okay, nothing special. The buffet also had linguine and marinara sauce, but I steered clear of it since it looked like it had been sitting there a while. There was iceberg lettuce salad too, but I avoided that since the tongs had been dropped down into the salad pan. The cheesy garlic bread was pretty good, but again, there needed to be more of it for the volume of people eating here. The decor needs a serious update, and the floors, tables and chairs were very dirty. The buffet looked unclean as well. I guess the price is telling of the quality of food. $7.95 for the buffet plus a soft drink. I won't be coming back here anytime soon. read more

Lunch buffet, cheap and quick and the pizza is better than most large chain pizza places. I've been coming here for years, the pizza is consistant, you know what to expect, hot, fresh, and tasty. read more

Pasquales - Pizza Near Me - Indianapolis, Indiana

For people not around here, the food was great. A little confusing when you walk in but overall a good place. Pizza was great and very filling. Very good ingredients, The toppings were fully cooked through and the cheese was melted on top. Overall a very good place. ( service was a little slow but worth it) read more

First time here. Pretty good pizza. We got the Hawaiian pizza. A soft chewy crust, light & refreshing. Was a pleasant surprise! Not a very good location. read more

We visit on Tuesday nights for the buffet, which costs just a little more than going to a fast food place. We prefer this to a burger for dinner. Having the spaghetti and breadsticks is a plus since I don't eat that much pizza. The salad is basically just lettuce but overall we enjoy the visit. There are places with better pizza so if that's what we want, we go somewhere else. We don't make a comparison. We voiced a concern on one visit with an employee improperly handling food and it was addressed right away, and no issues since. The outdated décor is part of charm for us. There is certainly no need to worry about what we are wearing. We don't live in the area but are happy to see the growth of businesses in Decatur/Mars Hill. read more

When I walked in for lunch, I was a little disappointed that it was a pizza buffet because it is rare to get decent pizza at a buffet. The food actually turned out better than I expected (although not amazing). They didn't have much variety, but what I did grab wasn't to terrible. They did have cheese covered bread and salad options along with pizza for the buffet - I grabbed one of the cheese covered bread squares and it wasn't spectacular, but not bad . It's definitely not a foodie destination, but it is one of the better places for food around this location that I have been too (your other choices are mostly fast food). The service was mixed. The first lady I talked to was very nice and went out of her way to help me, while another lady who I was trying to talk to seemed disinterested in dealing with me. The place is hard to find, so if you want to give it a shot, you'll have to hunt for it, although I wouldn't recommend driving out of your way to go. All in all the experience was closer to 2 stars than 3, as they only had 2-3 pizza types up at once, so you might get stuck with stuff you don't like. read more

The pizza is impressive. Easily the best pizza in the neighborhood. Delicious, medium thick crust which often has a crispy bottom and a soft, chewy interior. Quality toppings and plenty of them. Not cheap, but far from the most expensive in the area. Delivery would be nice. ....avoid the pasta. read more

Not the best I've had and not the worst. So I gave it a 3... Because it took me 3 times eating here to find something I liked.

Meh, I've experienced better. Police really seem to like this place, so if you are on the lamb, but really want a less than mediocre pizza buffet go elsewhere. If you like boring pizza, iceburg lettuce salads, and watching a crap ton of police officers chow down this is your destination. The woman at the counter didn't like that I was touching the take out menus either. I pulled them closer to inspect the beer list (they serve domestics in mugs) and she pulled it back a millimeter when I was done reading. She then gave me the reproachful Granny Clampett look. I didn't touch them anymore. This is a run down of what to expect for $6.49 plus tax. So the salad bar, hold on it's a doozie. Iceburg lettuce, ranch dressing, and....wait for it......italian dressing! Next, the pasta bar which consists of some red/marinara/spaghetti sauce and some coagulated noodles. Yum! There are some garlic cheese toasted hoagie buns too. I actually liked these, but I love garlic, cheese, and bread in that order. Finally, the piece de resistance....the pizza buffet. You have your choice of pepperoni or pepperoni with 4 diced pieces of green pepper and 7 diced pieces of onion. It was a tough decision I tell you. Top it all off with a Mr Pibb. I shall pass the next time the coworkers try to con me into this lunch buffet. Peanut butter and jelly will win every time. read more

Pizza was ok, nothing special. Soft thin crust was the main weakness. That thin should be crispy. Toppings, standard frozen stuff. Buffet on Tuesday evenings and at lunch time weekdays. read more

Great food and great people! Love going there for the breadsticks and they have amazing service!

Food is great! Pizza always comes out perfect, and they do cheese free pizzas for my daughter who has a dairy allergy. I also get plain breadsticks here. The workers are great about not cross contaminating the foods. They do not skimp on toppings, always get lots of whatever we order. I haven't tried all the sandwiches yet, but they are also good. Cinnamon stix are delish! Prices are very reasonable. People are very friendly. Don't let the outside fool you, it may look like a hole in the wall, but it's a great place. They don't deliver, but that's ok. read more

At first, the place appeared sketchy but the food and service was great. My entire family loved it! The building is a little difficult to find because it's around back! I definitely recommend for a quick bite! read more

Buffet is a joke for the price you pay. Pizzas have very little toppings, salad bar is just bagged salad mix and 4 dressings, some noodles with marinara sauce and garlic bread. That's it for 9.50 with a drink. Save your money and go elsewhere! read more

I Just had to write a review after reading the other ones listed.I've been going to this location for years ( really decades). Yes its in a terrible location to find (at the side of a strip mall) and the interior is a little dated but once to find it and enter all things change. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food is hot and fresh. At lunch the buffet is busy because of the good food and great price so yes the pizza does go fast . I've seen numerous times when the staff couldn't place new pizzas out because there was no room for it. Compared to other buffets I've been to,I would rate this towards the top.Although I'm sure they are not going to be receiving any Michelin Stars ( that's for you foodies) , its a good value for your dollars. read more

I've been here a few times now. I was surprised how much I Enjoyed the #pizza here, worth the money! Maybe one day I'll explore the menu :D read more

My wife and I are pretty regular here. We are pretty familiar with the staff and they do a pretty good job of remembering what we like. The food is pretty good and the prices are reasonable. read more

This is a complete family atmosphere! Courteous staff- works great with schools. Very accommodating of large orders, or even last-minute orders. Karen and her staff are amazing. read more

It sucks. I was able to break my pasta with my fingers. Waited an hour for my food. Quality is completely related to how cheap the food is.
