    I absolutely love the pizza here! Enjoy the friendly staff, and the service is always on point!

    Extra Large (18", 10 slice) The Clark Kent Pizza
    Clark S.

    Since my last visit and review of Wiseguys Pizza, the business owner reached out to me, following up on the critiques I had. It was so refreshing for me to have this follow-up as it showed they want to earn my repeat business again as I had fallen off due to some quality and timing inconsistencies. They followed up again to let me know they made adjustments to their menu and then went a step further and created a new specialty pizza based on the pizza toppings I've been ordering around Buffalo. Based on the experience I had this Saturday, Wiseguys Pizza is coming back, with a vengeance, into my "go-to" pizza list!! On a Saturday, I called around 4:45pm and was connected to a young woman, who immediately informed me she was a new hire in training, which I appreciated - It helps to level-set expectations and show extra grace and patience. It took her a few times to get my phone number (I do have a Rochester-area code and live in Buffalo so it's a little jarring... haha) and when I asked for the new specialty pizza, she had a little difficulty finding it and at one point asked what toppings I wanted, so I was a little worried, but she quickly grabbed a manager and everything was squared away. Once my order was in the system, she told me it'd be ready in 30 minutes. I arrived about 35 minutes later and parked on the street, right at their front door. I walked in, paid for my pizza, chatted with one of the managers working for a moment, and walked out, literally two or three minutes I was in there. This was a critique from the last few visits so it was very refreshing to have my pizza ready when I got there, no delays! For dinner, I ordered a medium (13", eight slice) new, 2026 specialty pizza: The Clark Kent Pizza, which is mozzarella cheese, red sauce, pepperoni, HUGE slices of meatballs, banana peppers, then hot honey drizzled over it all. I took the business owner's recommendation of asking for the bottom to be a little extra crispy too. For transparency, they actually ended up making my pizza an extra-large (18", ten slice) but didn't catch it until they brought it out, but had no issue with me taking it, while paying the medium-size price. I will take a side-tangent here and say, whenever there was a mistake at Wiseguys Pizza, the management and staff have always gone above and beyond for me to make things right! I have had orders where the wrong toppings were put on and they go out of their way to make the right pizza and let me take home the "wrong" pizza, free of charge, and they deliver the right pizza for free, instead of having me wait around for it. The managers at Wiseguys Pizza are incredibly customer-first, friendly, and do whatever they can to accommodate. So, The Clark Kent Pizza... one of the best pizzas I have ever had, period! There was so much cheese and (not-so-sweet) red sauce on every slice. There were soo many pepperonis, the banana pepper rings were plentiful, adding a nice level of spice without scorching the tastebuds. But my goodness, the meatballs... 2025 was the year of ordering meatballs on pizza and Wiseguys Pizza's spin on meatballs has got to be the best I've had - Thick, meaty slices bursting with flavor. To help seal the deal was the drizzle of hot honey on top, which they measured out perfectly as each slice had an extra sticky, sweet heat, while not leaving your hands a sticky mess. Asking for the dough underneath to be extra crispy was also the solution I've been looking for as the dough was perfect this time - Not floppy, wet in the center and every slice held up the denseness of the toppings with zero issue, while the crust had an excellent level of crispy and chewy. It doesn't really need to be mentioned but the extra-large size is more than plenty for one person (even for a guy with a "healthy" appetite like me), but every slice was nicely sized and I'm looking forward to reheating the other half for dinner very soon. As for the price, even though I paid for a medium and received two sizes larger, I've ordered medium pizzas from Wiseguys Pizza before and they are very much in-line with the majority of Buffalo pizza shops, so no complaints/surprises here. If you've made it to the end of this review, congrats and thank you! haha After being reached out to by the business owner from Wiseguys Pizza, I saw how much they cared about his business, but also cared about earning my business back. That really impressed me. If you've read my other reviews, I really like Wiseguys Pizza, but the big thing now, for me at least, is they can consistently keep this level of quality. Going off my most recent visit though, I most certainly will be ordering more of my Saturday night pizzas from Wiseguys Pizza!

    First thing is first. I owe a huge debt of thanks to Fox E. for the recommendation. That man is a genius when it comes to Buffalo pizza and wings. Second, more than anything, eating wings this good at a divey little take out pizza place in South Buffalo just makes me angry. Angry at so many things. Angry that so many other wing places fall far short of the brilliance of these wings. Angry at folks who flock to places that are banking on their historical reputations rather than the quality of their wings. Angry at those places who know better but still put out inferior wings. Dear God, these wings are good. From Fox's fingers to my ears. Wings, medium, extra saucy. There is no need to ask for them crispy, because these wings are perhaps the crispiest I have ever had. Even crispier than at Fox's other favorite place. AND that crispiness does not come at the expense of juiciness. Not at all. The meat is tender, flavorful, and pulls cleanly from the bones. If I was picking at nits, I might knock off a point for a broken emulsion in the sauce. But hot damn, that medium stuff is tasty and the exactly the flavor profile I want in a classic wing from this part of the word. Wings come with celery sticks and a nice super chunky blue cheese cup. At first I was concerned WiseGuys may have switched over to Ken's industrial cups, since I saw a case of those sitting in the fridge, but thankfully those concerns were misplaced. It's a damn near perfect wing. While Buffalo style pizza is still not my thing, this is one of the better versions I have tried. Perhaps because the dough isn't quite as thick. Don't get me wrong. It's still thick and doughy, as it should be. Just not quite as high. And I dig those thick cut, cup and char pepperoni. We were the only people I saw eating our food on site. There are two booths inside, and one small two-top in the window. On the side deck there are three picnic tables. There are no bathrooms. Tap water wasn't available and Dasani is what they have in bottles. There is little ambiance. Eating outside meant being asked for a dollar from a passing local, and then breathing in his second hand smoke as he sat on the steps and had a conversation with an equally colorful guy from the neighborhood. But you know what? With food this good, I am happy to put up with all of this and more. Eating these wings filled me with such a sense of bliss and joy, and yes anger too, but much much more joy. These are what wings should be. Everywhere. All the time. I feel like everyone who eats wings should come here and get a taste. Then, perhaps, we might be less forgiving of every other place that falls so far short of this benchmark. This is why wings are famous. This is why Fox E is a national treasure. The best foods are rarely found at the famous places. They are at these little off the beaten path places that hold the line and do damn fine work day in and day out. Get here. Get happy. Then get angry. Then tell your friends and anyone else who will listen. I am already looking forward to my next visit, whenever that may be. Oh, one last thing. On a Saturday night the slice display was empty. Maybe that's because it was Saturday night. Forewarned is forearmed. Regardless, it doesn't change a thing about the excellence and surprising supremacy of WiseGuys.

    This is my absolute favorite place to get pizza! Outside seating is available with a few booths inside to enjoy.

    Divey pizza & wings with daily specials and everyday combo deals. Great plump and crispy wings, Zane excellent (if slightly doughy) pizza.

    Slice of "pizza"
    Savannah M.

    First time customer here ....We ordered a slice of pizza to go along with the rest of our order and this is what we received. Come on! You seriously box something up that looks like this? I am torn between a 1 star for appearance and a 4 star for taste. To charge for this mess is crazy work.

    Classic cheese and pepperoni
    Brielynn B.

    Mmmm! Loved, loved, loved this pizza. Just sticking with a staple, we ordered a large cheese and pepperoni pizza, with a side of blue cheese. This pizza was delicious. Perfectly crispy, classic buffalo cupped/spicy pepperoni and simple cheesy goodness. The sauce was different with a little bit of a sweeter touch, and once I added a little crushed red pepper, it was the perfect balance. If you look at the picture, it's almost like there was no crust on the pizza because it was perfectly covered in toppings, and that's exactly how I like my pizza! Every bite was full of flavor. I'm bummed that I am so late in trying this spot, but so glad that I finally did!

    Medium Pepperoni pizza

    I was in town for one evening and decided to try a local pizza place. All I can say is that it was an exceptionally good pizza. The dough had just the right amount of thickness, the pizza sauce was outstanding with a robust taste and the toppings were liberally applied and tasted perfect. If I ever go back to Buffalo I will definitely be going back for more pizza. I highly recommend this pizza joint!!

    Honest mustard fingers with fries
    Bianca S.

    It's been years since I've had wise guys and I was not disappointed. They used to have another location that closed. This location is south buffalo had some of the best fingers I've had in a long time. A little bit more pricey than others places for fingers, but totally worth it. Their blue cheese is so good not like the Ken's dressing most restaurants just give out. I can't wait to go back. Service was cool, I had an issue, and they fixed it for me. There were a couple tables inside and some old school video games to play. I also saw a Christmas tree and that they are collecting toys for something, which is nice.

    I've been wanting to try their Sicilian-style pizza for quite some time, and my birthday cookie…read morereward finally gave me the perfect excuse to celebrate. They already have a fantastic thin-crust pizza, so I asked if they could make the Sicilian style with the muffuletta toppings. No problem at all. It took a little longer than expected (ordered for 4:45, ready at 5:00), but it was absolutely worth the wait. Ordering is easy online or by phone. If you get voicemail, just call back - they're probably on the phone with another customer. Now, about that pizza. The thick Sicilian crust had the perfect chew: light and airy inside with a crisp, golden bottom. Every bite was loaded with the bold salty toppings, bringing a savory, slight spice/pickled kick that paired perfectly with the oils and melted cheese. The toppings reached edge to edge, creating a pizza that was hearty, flavorful, and impossible to put down. Please pencil in a visit to The Deli on a Wednesday to grab one of their pizzas. I do recommend ordering ahead to claim your dough. This version reads like a Yelp review and really highlights the texture and flavor of a loaded Sicilian pie.

    The food is fantastic I haven't had anything that wasn't rated 5! The people working there are…read more very knowledgeable and so friendly that they make you feel like family. I love everything about The Deli.
