Worst service I've had at a restaurant. Had reservations for 8:30, when we got there people had just been sat at our tables so we waited until about 9:15. We ended up not leaving until 11:30 because the service was so slow and we had been avoided by our server. I will not go back unless I am sitting at the bar, the main floor service was terrible. read more

Great atmosphere here, was too cold too sit rooftop when I was here, but the atmosphere inside exceeded my expectations. Starting off we had the crack fries, great appetizer, very tasty and would order again. The pizza was then very good all around, Ricky Ricotta was my personal favorite. If the meal had of ended there I maybe would have given this 5 stars. However, we decided to order the Nutella filled donuts for dessert, and that was a mistake. The donuts appear to be overflowing with Nutella, but in reality have little to no Nutella at all. I bit into a section with all the Nutella and you can't even taste it there is so little. I would recommend coming here if you want pizza in Norman, other than the donuts, everything was high quality and the service was great. read more

Volare - Ricky Ricotta Pizza - Bars Near Me - Norman, Oklahoma

Such a cool place! I love the roof top. Not much seating but it's a great view of the city. Apparently this place is known for their pizzas and they definitely delivered (in my opinion at least). We first walked in and were guided to the elevator. The first thought was wow, this place is pretty well decorated and stood out from the rest of the stores in this area. We reached the rooftop and it was an outdoor bar with enough seating for probably around 40 or so? you could fit more standing because there's a good amount of space, they should keep it that way. We ordered the crack fries, the Wilson, and the Bee sting. I loved the Bee sting, the spice and honey combo work great together. The crack fries could have used a little more crisp but that's just an opinion, the flavor was great though. The Wilson was a bit.. soggy. the vegetables on top did not seem fully cooked, and it was a mess of a pizza. Pretty good flavor but it could have used a bit more time in the oven. Staff were friendly, place was clean, price was decent, overall a great experience and will be back to try more (but mostly for the view.) read more

Volare - Crack fries - Bars Near Me - Norman, Oklahoma

Poorly managed place unfortunately unreliable maybe managed by college kids? Food is good but just disorganized

My aunt, sister, and I were out for a girls night and we decided to grab dinner here. I'm glad we did because the pizza is delicious and the adult beverages (girly drinks) are the perfect balance of sweetness and alcohol. We started our meal with the Crack Fries. They really are crack lol- try them they don't disappoint if you are a fan of Parmesan and garlic. I opted for the Margherita pizza which was phenomenal! I can't wait for my next visit :) read more

The atmosphere was cool! Great pizza! Full of flavor, awesome crust, perfectly fired. The chicken Alfredo was a little lacking in flavor though. If you're from Oklahoma, their ranch dressing is not up to par AND it costs 50 cents for each small cup. read more

This a a great place to hang out and have drinks. It's a multilevel restaurant/bar. We chose rooftop seating. The surround views of Norman are excellent. The place overlooks campus corner with a view of the OU campus. The 'Bulleit Proof' cocktail (their spelling) is delicious. It is crisp, clean and refreshing... also making it dangerous to drink a lot of them! I ordered a pizza...a bit disappointed here. There was one pepperoni piece per slice. The pizza looks sad. Taste was ok....Nothing memorable. Service was terrible. Our waitress admitted she forgot about us. We had to walk to the bar to get more drinks for our table. I will probably be back for the great drinks when visiting Norman. read more

Terrible, terrible, terrible customer service!!! I emailed a catering order on a Thursday for pick up on Saturday. I received a confirmation email stating that the order was scheduled and that my credit card had been charged. 30 minutes before I was supposed to pick up the order, they called and said that they had just received the order and that they would not be able to fill the order!!! They had too many other orders that had to be filled. WHAT!! I was already in my way to Norman. I live about 45 minutes away. How do you send a confirmation email and charge my credit card and then call me 30 minutes before I'm supposed to pick up the food?!! I never eaten at this restaurant and never will. I have eaten at their sister location, Benvenuti's. I will not eat there again! Owners, management whoever must do better!! read more

Food and drinks are pretty good but the service is slower than a round of golf with your grandpa. Might as well order your food and drinks an hour before you get there. read more

Love this place, good is so good and the employees are so helpful and friendly. It just has such a good vibe to it, especially upstairs on the rooftop, and their pasta is always amazing. read more

We had been wanting to go rooftop, but there just wasn't any room, so we went for the lounge and enjoyed a very relaxed atmosphere on a fabulous red couch. We began with drinks, I had the best Moscow mule I've had in the OKC area, and the hubs just ordered a draft beer.....fat tire, I believe. We started with the Scarpetta, fried zucchini strings, which were yummy, but maybe a tad under fried. We split a Luna salad because who doesn't love a fried goat cheese medallion. Yum. Then we split the Bee Sting pizza. Flavor on the pizza was great, but the amount of liquid in, and under, the center of the pizza was excessive. However, the crust was fresh tasting towards the outer edge of the pizza, the mozzarella used was so good and the red sauce wasn't overpowering. The soppresata slices could have been left off and the pizza would have been just as flavorful. The peppers were h.o.t. Serrano, I think...... We will be back to try the rooftop another night, perhaps next summer when there aren't as many students reuniting for the school year. read more

My party of 6's experience was so bad last week that I had to make this place my first review on Yelp. Food was decent but customer service was abysmal. If you decide to go request to be downstairs because you'll be forgotten in the mezzanine area regardless of how dead the restaurant is. Had to wait 15 minutes before being seated in a near empty restaurant and realized why since bussing tables here takes at least 20 minutes. Drink your drinks sparingly because quick refills are hard to come by here. Remember to ask if they are out of any items off the menu when you order because you won't be told until you get your food without them. Review your check too for said missing items otherwise you'll be paying for them. Don't order the fries unless you like them still frozen. Don't bother talking to the manager because she'll be on the phone discussing her life with her friends since customer service isn't her forte. If you pay cash make sure to count your change because I was shorted $20 after paying with a $50. You can tell this place is new but if the staff don't get their communication right for all three floors this place won't last no matter how many excuses they make for their service. read more

Advice: If I am a paying customer, please do not tell me you cannot serve me my drink in a glass because you have switched to plastic cups. The reason being: it's a hassle. I'm the customer, I pay you. Please deliver a better customer experience. I wrote this at 9:30pm on a Thursday. Good food, good drinks but this totally ruined it for me. read more

One of my favorite spots on campus corner! Good atmosphere, great rooftop patio with an amazing view. The food and service have both been great. Today we had the bourbon BBQ wings to start. OMG these are amazing! Best I've had in Norman/OKC area. Next we had the truffle shuffle pizza. So cheesy and delicious. Volare is one of our favorites for sure. read more

Given a 3Star because the Pizza is the best.. - But... Volare has MTV Music Videos cranked up throughout the House and it's hard to converse with the one sitting across your table.. In addition, the MTV music videos have constant sexual gyrations being shown which is Inappropriate for many, especially for your young children - Volare, please Save the Party Atmosphere for the party crowd and make your M-F dining more family friendly. Volare should address this.. - the Pizzas the best around though.. read more

Scott H. nailed his review, but I will add. Enjoying the positive management experience of Benvenuti's, this place shines where it could very easily be lackluster. A gorgeous pizza oven in the center of the restaurant (from the Old Country, I understand) sets the damn tone. Like a 1970s Oklahoma fullback, the presence is there. Bar to the left, high tops in front, informal bench-and-tables to the right and a pizza bar (think sushi bar where you watch them make sushi) to the center. They have an upstairs that is great and I haven't been to the rooftop yet. Ambiance: hip-ish. Cool enough for a 21 year old to bring a cool date, while "edgy" for square 36 year olds. Food pro tip: no joke, a side throw away item, the mini corn dogs, are freaking bad ass. I have a toddler, so we ordered them for him, and finished them ourselves. I guess they batter them in-house?? I dunno, but they are super. Also super: buffalo wings, whether you get them with the buffalo or BBQ sauce. Remember: while the items on the menu may not seem Paris-fancy, this is a Benvenuti's restaurant and the fare meets that expectation. Pizzas: we love the Big Stick pepperoni. The pizzas are small, but loaded with toppings. If you think you might need "maybe another pizza?", just do it. You will. Enjoy this joint. It understands Norman. read more

Went on Tuesday with my gf and her nephew.... was pretty busy for a Tuesday, but the atmosphere was good. The place has a nice mix of bar and restaurant areas. Try the Taco Pizza....! read more

Shittiest vibe in Norman. Dominos is classier. Don't expect any service or friendly staff.

The food was excellent. We enjoyed the meatball sliders, corn dogs, sausage sandwich, and truffle fries. We sat on the rooftop which offered the best view in Norman. The fries were excellent, but we had to send them back because they were brought to us cold. The sausage sandwich had a pretty significant spicy-ness to it, which really was not in the description. Had I ordered it (which I almost did), I would have been disappointed because I would not have known by the menu description. Plus, it was not compacted in it's skin enough, but that is a subjective preference. The winner were the meatball sliders! However, I really enjoyed this place. I am eager to return to try other offerings. I just know to look out for service-type issues (ie cold food). Oh and a HUGE plus is that they have great drink prices. They are priced well for college students and these 32 year olds enjoy that! :) read more

I have been coming here for a while now and it's always been great. Today I went and the service here was TERRIBLE. I flagged down my waiter THREE times and each time he either put his finger up for "one second" or COMPLETELY ignored me. I do not think I will be coming back. Very disappointing. read more

Really nice addition to Campus Corner. I think if they add almost twice the toppings to their pizzas and expand their menu also by twice the selection, this place will be a hit. read more

The live music was ridiculously loud. I have no clue how the manager thinks the volume of the music is OK. You're driving business away when a waitress has to talk to you via mouthing words n hand signals. Grabbed a quick drink and left to eat somewhere else as it was impossible to talk to the person next to you, and it was not a comfortable place to hang out. read more

They make a great variety of pies. I love the inside of this place. Really great food as well! They make the pizzas in this large copper oven right in the middle of the place and the quality is great. We split a pizza and had leftovers after. The drink menu was on point as well. read more

Rooftop bar offers STUNNING views of the sweeping oklahoma plains. Catch the sunset and a balmy late spring day and enjoy the cotton candy sky that is the star of the show! The cocktail (especially the specials) have never disappointed. The bar food is filling and worth the price:) read more

Upon entering the restaurant was told by the hostess that she needed to clean off the table to the immediate right of us. She split this table into 2 two-toppers. After taking about 10 minutes to bus these 2 tables she sat us. Immediately following, either the Manager or Owner told us we had to move to another two-topper literally feet from where we were sitting but crammed in between 2 other guests. I requested the Manager/Owner for us to be able to stay at the table the hostess had originally seated us at because it had a bit more room and we wouldn't have to be seated inches from the other guests. She informed us she couldn't accommodate our request. When I questioned the Manager/Owner and requested to be able to stay at the table we were seated at by the hostess, she refused our request and commented basically that it "was Saturday night in the big city" and basically she couldn't help us and we had to move tables! One of the rudest experiences I have ever had from someone in the hospitality industry. We left and didn't get to experience the food at Volare. Just a really cruddy way to handle a guest that walks into your restaurant. read more

Volare is delicious and the vegan pizza and their modified vegan crack fries are addictive.

I went on a Bumble Date here and it was AMAZING. FYI to those who are meeting someone for the first time--the rooftop is the perfect place to go! Volare is also so great for first dates because it can be fancier or casual which takes the stress off of figuring out what to wear! We split some crack fries (YUM!!!) and the "bee sting" pizza because we thought it was fitting for a first Bumble Date. I wouldn't have tried it otherwise but I think it might be my new favorite!! I'll definitely be back for another soon! read more

Went here after a long day of hiking in the Wichita Mountains. It was crazy busy on a Saturday night and we sat on a couch without a legit table, but we were so hungry it didn't matter. I got the Margherita Pizza and my significant other got the Pepperoni. It was delicious and it came out relatively fast given the circumstances. Next time I'm in Norman I'll come back! read more

I've started coming here for less than a year now and I love their pizzas! But their service is absolutely shitty. I just picked up 2 pizzas to go and I asked for the receipt. First off, my bill was $34 for 2 of their pizzas. When I asked why my bill was so high they told me that it was the tax but tax doesn't add $8 to your bill so I knew they added an extra charge. Then when I asked them about my bill again, they told me there was an automatic 20% service charge on all to go orders that they never mentioned. I don't mind paying a tip but the fact that they charged me extra without letting me know is absurd. Also, it took me calling them back 3 times for them to give me a correct explanation of my receipt. Honestly felt like I was being scammed. read more

Love their pizza! We love having their vegan arugula pizza. Food comes quickly and service is great. The rooftop has an amazing view of OU too! read more

They a sour beer on draft (a good sour) which is sometimes difficult to find. The Truffle Fries gave me life! I could order 2 and skip my entree, entree was a chicken pasta, excellent portion and flavor. read more

Volare is a wonderful pizza bar in Norman's Campus Corner district. They have a rooftop bar/dining area that offers a great view of the OU campus and football stadium. I recommend the Calabrian King or Bee Sting pizzas but they offer a good selection of toppings. The service is very good and the prices are reasonable. I highly recommend dining here. read more

The pizza is amazing! I dream about the margarita pizza frequently. The spinach dip is also amazing with the peppers. It's spicy but delicious. Big fan. Wasn't crazy about the Nutella donuts. I'd love a better dessert selection but honestly I eat so much of the pizza that I almost die every time and immediately must take a sleep. read more

Amazing service and we had the fried feta salad, the big stick pizza, Calabrian king...all delicious! Beautiful establishment

The absolute worst service - poor food & very poor bartenders. Took forever to get a drink & they thought they were doing us a favor just to serve us. Not sure they even knew how to make a drink. Won't be back! read more

The best food on Campus Corner! Fun atmosphere and a great bar! The cocktail menu is one of the best in Norman. Fresh, craft beverages - no packaged mixes at this bar! Delicious wood fired pizza - crispy crust with fresh house-made ingredients. The appetizers & salads are great as well!! We have been here several times and love EVERYTHING on the menu!! For a beautiful view of the OU campus go to the rooftop bar! read more

I came here for my 21st birthday dinner and had a great time. The bartender was friendly and was able to recommend and make drinks that were outstanding! I ordered one of the pizzas and was very impressed. One of my favorite places to go in Norman. read more

Really cool environment and our server was really solid but the food just wasn't good and it was pretty expensive. Not gonna come back here for sure read more

We went late one night after an away football game. The place was packed. The music was so loud, it was not what I was expecting. Very night club. Drinks took a long time in the lounge and on the roof. The pizza came out pretty quickly. The pizza was okay. I thought it was nice but would like to try it when it isn't so packed and loud. read more

Love the pizza, and the rooftop views! BUT after my latest experience ordering to-go pizza- the customer service at the to go station by the door was Horrible! The hostess had a bad attitude and refused to respond to any of my questions. It was as if I was BOTHERING them. It's sad because I've been a patron since the opening of this restaurant. hope management can help make it a better experience, or I'll take my business elsewhere. read more
