    Treated to pizza nerds at work. Detroit style perfectly baked to my liking! The cheese was excellent with the perfect amount of sauce. The pep pizza was lacking sauce unlike the cheese one. Definitely would recommend if you're in the area.

    When a friend called me to say hey, let's try this pizza place way out on the east side east of Easton, I was wondering why in the world we would travel so far out of our bubble, living on the other side of the Columbus Metropolitan area. Boy, let me tell you I am sure glad that we did this! This pizza is truly FANTASTIC! Well worth the time it took to drive here. I am envious of the local residents who get to live nearby this place! It has a kitschy decor, focused on classic cult movies and nostalgic items. There are only a few tables to dine in, and it appears most people take their pizzas to go. We ate ours on site. Look at my photos you'll see all the boxes stacked up and ready to be filled with their amazing creations. I am not kidding. You need to go try this place. Take a look at the photos. Just the right crunch, just the right amount of sauce and cheese, and they don't skimp on ingredients. I cannot imagine someone getting a pizza here and not being a fan of it after they've eaten it. And I say that being a self described pizza aficionado. Get some!!!

    We've been wanting to try Pizza Nerds for a few months now, and finally ordered on a cold, rainy Sunday -- the perfect pizza day! Ordering online was super easy and fast. One quick note: Apple Maps currently says they don't open until 3 PM, but that's not true -- they open at noon. I actually requested an edit after realizing that because it gave me a little scare since I had already ordered and paid for pickup! We tried their thick-style weekly special -- spicy vodka sauce, meatballs, basil, and tomatoes -- and it was so good. The crust was buttery and crispy, perfectly balanced. We also ordered a thin crust Hawaiian to try something different, and it was equally delicious -- different texture, same amazing flavor. Both styles were fantastic and will definitely be added into our regular rotation. The ranch deserves a shoutout too -- clearly homemade, creamy with a nice tang. The space itself has a fun '80s theme, and the vibe is super friendly and inviting. They even have homemade cookies that looked tempting... definitely grabbing one next time!

    Stopped in for lunch on a Sunday - we thought they had tables for dine in but as of February 2026, it is carry out only! The pizza is Detroit style and pretty tasty - a little greasy but to be expected. The fresh ricotta on top was a major highlight ! While on the expensive side it was still delicious. Our group also got several cookies - they were ok but not out of this world, really nothing special except a slightly under baked center. For the price, there are better "gourmet" cookies around. Overall go for a pizza but don't expect to eat there!

    Best specialty pizza in all of Columbus. I absolutely love their Detroit style crust! So for this this week only I ordered. "The Texas Tony" (I like mine well done) Swiss American, Mozzarella, Beef, Bacon, Crispy Onions, and thier house-made Nerds Tangy Burger Sauce, straight up ridiculous! Brent was kind enough to let me try their new Garlic Knots that are Comings soon! Stuffed Triple Choco Cookie (A must have!)

    The entire experience was notably enhanced by the attentive service offered. Harlen demonstrated a strong commitment to ensuring customer satisfaction throughout the interaction. His professionalism and efficiency contributed significantly to the positive atmosphere. Moreover, his knowledge of the menu was impressive, and he was able to offer helpful suggestions. Ultimately, the exceptional service was a key factor in the overall success. Pizza Nerds

    Medium 6 Cut Cosmo Kramer

    Both pizzas were delicious but the Cosmo Kramer is incredible! The crust is perfectly crunchy and airy. But the jalapeños, bacon and pineapple are what really make this pizza a 10/10!

    I wasn't a huge fan. The decorations are cute. The pizza lacked flavor and the garlic knots tasted frozen. Visually everything looked stunning including the cookies. I just didn't find much flavor in the items I had. I will say the prices aren't bad.

    Another review for Pizza Nerds! This time we tried the monthly special called Eugene. It was a crab rangoon inspired pizza drizzled with sweet chili sauce. It definitely had a kick! This pizza was yummy & glad I got to try it but wish it was cheesier. I'm assuming it had cream cheese but it wasn't obvious (at least not in the one we ordered). This was the first time dinning in & unfortunately it was so loud in there. Mostly small kids slamming on the video games. The drink options are a huge bummer though. You can't even get a glass of water because they don't even have a soda fountain. You have to purchase a bottled drink from their cooler. They said they might be getting a liquor license at some point, which I hope so because a beer is what I want when eating pizza. I am a bit bummed that they got rid of salads on their menu, so it's hard to make a meal there of anything but pizza unfortunately. I still rated them high because I like the food & the people but hoping for some of these things to sort themselves out soon.

    Huge cookie! Toffe and choc chip

    We were so excited to try Pizza Nerds for the first time. Nothing better than a pizza Friday night! It was packed which is amazing for them. The space is a full-on 80s/90s fever dream and I am so here for it! We live about 20 minutes away and forgot the pizza bag, so it had cooled off quite a bit by the time we got home, but that's our fault. Best part? It still tasted like outstanding! We went with a simple pepperoni plus a cookie, since we base most first-try pizzas this way. Everyone raved about the cookies, so that was a no-brainer. Ok seriously? This pizza was SO freaking good. Nostalgia old school pizza Book It days good. The thick crust is pillowy, like a focaccia. Perfect amount of cheese and cup & char pepperoni. The sauce is a perfect blend of sweet and flavorful (and not over-sauced, either.) I haven't been this impressed by a pizza in awhile, but this might be a new favorite... and Columbus has a strong pizza game. I can't wait to get it again. This is the special Friday Night pizza of my dreams.

    I absolutely LOVED the pizza here! We opted to do a deep dish and split the larger size. When you do that, it goes from 9 slices to 8. My husband enjoyed his Donkey Kong, and I kept it simple with pepperoni and cheese. It almost reminded me of what Pizza Hut USED to be like when we were little kids redeeming our Book Club vouchers. Buttery crust with a crisp bite to the bottom, a sweeter sauce, pepperoni slightly singed, nice and cheesy. Speaking of nostalgia, this place is heavy on it. Lots of movie posters from the 90s, Monica and Rachel's door from "Friends", 90s pop music playing on the background. Dude working the front counter was really friendly too. Looking forward to them doing a real sit down situation with fountain drinks. We will happily return, I'm thinking the Cheese and Chong. Wishing Pizza Nerds all the success!

    Super cool mural inside the shop

    The pizza from this spot is top notch. This is not hype-it's really that good. The crust is that perfect balance for those that like a crispy crust and those that like something a little more doughy. I tried their homemade ranch for the first time from the new location and it was 10/10. And the cookies! They're literally so delicious-always stuffed with some delicious something special inside like a birthday cake sprinkle cookie with a cream cheese birthday cake icing sort of filling. This new spot is great with some indoor seating and arcade games. The staff is super nice and helpful. The owners seem really passionate about their shop which I really value in a small business.

    On the left, honey I shrunk the chicken,  garlic knots and a half pep and half sausage.

    We saw a review on instagram and figured we'd give it a try. We ordered 2 pies and garlic knots. The food was fine but I've had better. I wish they would have given more toppings, for the price point they are at. The sauce is pretty basic and kinda watery, it needed to be cooked down more and needed Italian seasoning. I'm pretty sure it's just tomatoes, onion, garlic and a little salt. The crust was the best part of the pie. The staff was nice and helped us pick which pizza's we ordered. The garlic knots were good but they needed salt in the garlic butter and more parm and Italian seasoning. They just needed to put more seasoning and toppings on everything. We'll give them another shot but I won't be in a hurry to do it. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't great and I was disappointed by the lack of flavor and toppings. I'd give it 2.5 out of 5. Not terrible but nothing amazing. It's fine.

    Half Eugene half Mario on thick crust.  Soooo good!

    This is definitely a hidden gem, even if many people would call it one of the top 5 pizza places in…read moreCentral Ohio.... Its sort off the beat'n path. Well-- this place is amazing. Its a true pizza joint. A pizza joint with a huge focus on local music. So many local musicians signed headshots line the walls. The dining room isnt big. Maybe three booths with another six or seven tables. A small stage and an open kitchen. The vibe is really casual but the owner makes a true effort to not just say hi to the guests but to lightly socialize with them. It creates an even nicer vibe. So tip: if you are set on dining in... get there early. Otherwise you might find yourself in a take away type of situation vs dine in- as they have a regular following and it gets packed fast. Now lets hit the food! Wow. Wow. Wow. If you havent been. Just get in the car and go. Its that good. The onion rings are what seems beer battered or tempura batter. They serve a good amount with their servings. Fried pepperoni is excellent. Also a lot for the price point. We ordered a large salad and it was more than enough to split between two people. Their small pizza is more than enough to split between two people. We ordered a large. Split between two people, ate til we got full and still had a half pizza to enjoy the next day. Lets revisit the pizza. It is AMAZING. This yelper isnt a fan of thin pizza usually... but this pizza... its thin, its bottom isnt too greasy. Its not too charred, it has that perfect crisp not just on the edges but in the middle. Gas plenty of cheese and toppings. We ordered pepperoni and mushrooms. The mushrooms are fresh baby portabellas -Cut perfectly, and so fresh. I wasbseriously sad when we ate the last piece toda

    This is slowly becoming one of my go to pizza places to sit down and eat!…read more Great atmosphere and wonderful service. Staff is very polite and pleasant and goes out of their way to make sure you are satisfied. Even the owner, Alex, will make his way around to check on you. Small intimate seating area is available where you can enjoy a nice selection of beers, watch the game in the TV, listen to the live music, or just enjoy the evening with friends. We have ordered a few different pizzas and have been very happy every time. The large salad is enough for two people to share. Have also gotten a few appetizers and have liked them. Stop in on a Saturday evening to enjoy live local music along with a nice beer and pizza. Alex will make sure you have fun and stop back.
