    Came across this little pizza place with the friendliest people. Not a lot of seating so I would call ahead if you were bringing the family, I was in midweek and they were busy. Great atmosphere for a small place indoor, outdoor, and bar seating. Pizza menu is fun just to read through with pizza puffs named Dude looks like a Elote, Michael McDonald, and Burrata be kidding me, just to name a few. The pizza was served quickly and the crust coming out of that brick oven looked and tasted delicious. It was a puffy soft, chewy, and oven baked crust. The rest of the pie was good as well. During my dinner the White Sox were playing the Yankees, and the Cubs were playing the Mets with playoffs just a week away and 3 of those teams could be in it. It would have been nice to see one of those games on the TV behind the bar instead of the Smithsonian channel. My server Elly was outstanding, along with someone who seemed to be the Manager or Owner checking in with all the diners a number of times while I was there. Check this place out if you in the area.

    First time here, did not know, but reservations are needed. But they have open seating at bar top. So we sat there. It was nice. We could see all the pizzas and dishes being made. We seen soo many good looking plates that we said, " we need to try that on next time." But we ordered garlic knots, and 2 pizzas. They we all cooked in a stone oven. Everything was soo delicious. You need to check this cute place out if u are in town.

    I can't get enough of the PUFF! My husband and I heard about this spot and are from out of town. Being a pair of pizzaiolas ourselves we love a good pizza spot and it did not disappoint! - This spot has a cute cozy industrial flair. A hidden gem if you will... - Service was great! Everyone was so welcoming especially the bar manager. -Now let's get to the PUFF. They have that crust down! So light and airy. Really cool to see the rotating pizza oven that is actually Wood fired. The pizza was delicious. I have been dreaming of a pesto pizza since Italy and this hit the spot with a few surprises! Love the addition of actual walnuts and sausage... great pie. My husband had the sopressata, so good! We also had the olive appetizer that was amazing! Add two glasses of wine and if we lived here this would be our Friday night spot!

    Wood fired pizza in small town America! The aromas coming from the oven greet you the moment you walk in the door. All of the other patrons were happily enjoying their dinners and the waitstaff were friendly and attentive. We ordered the garlic knots with marinara to start and they were light and fluffy. We chose the "Sausage +" puff and added mushrooms to it. So good...Make reservations as it's a small restaurant and enjoy! We'll be back- JohnnyE

    This evening we dined at Wendy Puff Pizzeria + Pub in Eureka and I won't quit talking about this for a long time. It felt like we were in Italy. Their flavor profiles are phenomenal and the dough is the best "chew" you can imagine. The brothers have the best restaurant around and we will be back! Only regret I have is not going sooner!!! So, go and enjoy the laid back environment and the best pizza around!

    Incredible! This is well worth the drive up from the interstate and ignoring all the pizza in Peoria, except perhaps Peoria Pizza Kitchen, and tied with Flingers for my favorite middle Illinois pie shows. Wendy Puff is special stuff. The owner chefs are personable and remembered our friend's new baby, asked each of our names, and inquired in good timing throughout the evening. Sure the prices are ripe with Illinois taxes, the menu might seem small, and this gorgeously simple atmosphere does get loud with a crowd despite the low music but all entirely worth the small trades. Our cocktails, a strawberry gin fizz and maple syrup old fashioned hit smooth and sublime. Expertly balanced and crafted to match the foods, we had to go a second round with a sour, smashed expectations with its spicy chili simple. Us four went for four puffs as well, that's pizzas to you, called Puffs due to the extremely proofed dough which waits for three days before hitting the oven. And just like the world's greatest story, it sure is well risen after three days for the oven, becoming very thick and poofy, a perfect bed to rest the variety of excellent toppings and unique fare from sweet potato to walnut pesto. We stayed somewhat cautious going for familiar and trusted flavors. They were all amazing! Appetizers too, Italian street food could easily be a forever must do. However, the Soppressetta was in a class by itself being rich and filled with top notch tasty bites. This is one of those rare and golden meal moments that we all started looking at each other in the final moments of our meal saying this is now our place to come on the weekends.

    It was very good!

    I kind of forgot to take a photo! It looked so good and I was so hungry I dug right in. Our pizzas (2) came in only 11 minutes! Our waitress was nice and very attentive. The crust was incredible. I'm not sure if it's always this way due to the brick oven, but it was very warm in the restaurant. My wife got a cider for $7 and it was only a tiny snifter. I didn't buy a craft beer. The menu was on the wall and it didn't have ABV or IBU information. I doubt we'll drive from Peoria again, but I'm glad I tried it.

    Review Visit: June 24th, 2015…read more They say, "pizza makes the world go around". Geo's does a good job helping it spin... 8 slices at a time. It is no lie; I am a huge pizza lover. Circular. Cut into slices. Endless arrangement of toppings. I will try almost any and all pizzas. So, it's only natural that I try the small pizzerias throughout the world. Geo's Pizza was widely regarded as great pizza among some of my coworkers and friends. After some very little arm twisting, I finally made my way there. I brought along my friend who had it before and wanted to come with. We walk in and snag a seat. It wasn't too busy, so we got to pick wherever we wanted to sit. We settled down on a table and cracked open the menus. Geo's is famous for their cheesy dough nuggets. Without much more arm twisting, my friend convinced me that we should order some. After looking over the menu, we settled on the cheesy dough nuggets and a barbeque chicken pizza. The service was prompt and never overbearing or missing. The waiter checked in on us here and there, without being too overbearing or too absent. The food took a normal time to come out. About 15 minutes or so. As soon as the pizza and nuggets hit the table, we pounced on it without hesitation. The nuggets were little nuggets of deliciousness. The barbeque chicken pizza was a delight. It was a bit weak on flavor compared to other ones that I have had, but I am not a pizza snob and enjoy almost all pizza equally. Did Geo's live up to the hype? Yes, for the most part. Despite the pizza lacking a bit in flavor, it was still delicious and a good lunch with a friend. Sometimes the company is just as good, if not better than the meal.

    Food was delightful!!! However my experience was soured when I could hear my waitress talking crap…read moreabout us from the kitchen. She was being obnoxious about how long we stayed even though we left well before close, it's not like we were impeding the restaurant. Next time talk quieter when you're complaining about tables.
