We came here for dinner on first Thursday night. We were looking forward to sitting at the bar, but the back area was closing. We took a poppy pizza and wings to go and ate at Silly Birch. The wings were ok, the Poppy pizza was delicious! Crust was done exactly right, and just yummy! This is a great pizza stop! read more

Wiseguy Pizza Pie - Wiseguy - Pizza Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Your pizzas look good - great combos, quality ingredients, fresh pies. But we've got to talk about your calzones. $14.50 and you serve up a croissant sized horseshoe with no middle? Serious about the content of a slice. That's not a calzone. And that was highway robbery. Go back to the drawing board with this one. read more

Great food, but customers should know that if your order is over $75, a 15% gratuity is automatically added. What bothered me is that this is not a full-service dining experience where servers regularly check on you, refill drinks, clear plates, and provide ongoing table service. In our experience, the food was dropped off, and that was basically it. Drinks, water, and other basics were self-serve. I'm actually a generous tipper and usually tip 20% unless the service is poor. I have no problem rewarding good service. But gratuity should be the customer's choice, especially in a setup like this. Being required to pay it without having a say didn't sit well with me. Just sharing this so other customers are aware and can make their own judgment before dining here. read more

A 5 star visit today! This place never disappoints. Walked in, checked out the slices, got our goodies ordered and headed to the dining area. We chilled for a bit and then out hot slices got delivered to us. Shortly after we got out salads. The Wise guy is my favorite. Pep, mushrooms, onions and sausage. You can't go wrong. I also got a side salad. Fresh cucumber and tomatoes. The romaine was crisp! So good! Local Idaho pizza joint is a must be support. The staff is always friendly and the food is so good. Can't wait to go back for another slice in the future. read more

Late night stop for a slice! This is what is needed sometimes, a good slice to balance out the mind and spirit! I stopped in on the way home, needed a good nightcap slice! Service was good, slice was great! I have never tried a pizza from here but I will have to some time! The slice was just cheese but it was great. Nice thin crust with a nice crunch to it, very little flop and a nice sauce and good cheese! Big fan, found that spot and will be back! KT read more

Amazing pizza and an even better experience! Wizeguy Pizza Pie was clean, welcoming, and served up some seriously delicious food and talk about fast service!! It seemed like they pride themselves on that concept (as they should!) The crust throwing was a blast to watch and kept everyone entertained. Highly recommend if you're in Boise! read more

The mid-40's-looking, male cashier, was extremely rude, short tempered, and completely disorganized. He had poor listening skills and clearly had something going on in his personal life. The pizza was really good though! read more

Stumbled upon this place after the BSU game last weekend. We were across the street having a celebratory losing beverage and needing a light snack before heading back to the west valley. Reminded me of a college hangout, but the pizza was actually quite tasty. We ordered three of the large slices to split between us. The crust was perfect and thin which made the snack a perfect hit for us. You can also order off the menu for full size pizzas, hoagies, burgers, Calzones, and more. We will definitely need to return and try other options! read more

We came here after a night out at bars. We tried the pepperoni pizza and it ran out so we got a fresh slice and HOLY MOLY it was delicious! I also got their calzone which was amazing! So good I forgot to take a photo! The prices are also very affordable. We liked it so much we returned the next day but we didn't get a fresh slice and the taste definitely changed dramatically. I suggest you order a fresh pizza or wait for a fresh slice if you have the time to. The restaurant itself was very big there's a seating areas outside as well as inside. They share a restroom with the rest of the places there but we had no issue using it. (No long lines and it was very clean) I def recommend this place for a hot meal after going out bar hopping read more

There's a lot of debate on what a good pizza should be, so I'll start with my own opinion. I spent much of my life in New York and New Jersey. I was lucky to live around the corner from DeLucias in Raritan for years, where my wife and her family grew up and knew the owners and bought all their pizzas back when you could still just walk in and expect to be served. So for me the ultimate slice is like that, one you might get while walking around in the city or on the boardwalk down the shore, cut from a gigantic pie, folded in half, and handed to you on waxed paper. Those pies are light and almost delicate, have a thin, delicious crust, a perfect balance between soft and a little chewy in the body but crispy at the edge, and of course fantastic sauce that stands on its own, and just the right amount of very good cheese. And yes, my friends from Chicago will tell me that's not pizza at all, so I'll acknowledge that upfront, again this review is just my own opinion and bias. But based on that personal ideal, Wiseguy has one of the best pies I've had outside of the NY tri state area. The crust is very close to perfect, maybe a hair too crispy for me, but delicious. You'd eat it plain and love it, which is important. You should want to eat the crusts, they should be yummy, like these are. And the topping level is just right - this isn't a flabby, weighted down mess with of too much of everything. It's a proper pizza. My only negative feedback I'd give them is that a margherita pizza comes with a pomodoro sauce, like appears in the photo on their website, and is not a white pie like it's actually delivered. Other than that, I'll not ever buy a pizza from anywhere else in Boise, these guys get it. read more

My family loves this place; great staff, good beer, awesome environment/building, great boneless wings and decent pizza (pizza 4 out of 5 stars). read more

Enjoyed the atmosphere and the pizza. Service was very good, as well. First time we had been here. We will be back.

Great New York style pizza with lots of flavor! Quick service, casual environment, and good prices.

This was our first time eating their pizza. Great pizza and service! Delivery was quick and easy!

What not to like a slice of their pizza!!! I love their thin crust pizza. The toppings are just enough. Their employees are nice and very friendly. I love it when they heat up our orders in the oven. The selection of their beers are awesome. A glass of Beer and a slice of pizza are just a perfect combination of my weekend night out. read more

pizza so good, i downloaded yelp. also, $1 rainier beers keep the parental unit satisfied. 10/10 recommend. the service was really great too. my dad is allergic to dairy like a little bum. imagine being scared of dairy! i don't even know what that is. but he ordered a vegan pizza and then later the workers came over and asked if we would like them to replace the sauce because it had cheese in it even though we didn't even mention that he's allergic! "the ambiance was peacefully quiet. there were cool pictures"- the general public (my 9 year old brother) read more

Best pizza in the treasure valley! We come from Nampa just to get a slice almost once a month. Service is good!

Ok, listen up you wise guys (and gals).. get it, Wiseguy? A pizza joint is hard to write a review about because, pizza is pizza and any normal person usually likes pizza. (If you don't like it, that is ok, you are still normal.) What makes a pizza place standout to get 5 stars? Not sure but I left happy with my experience. The thing I liked about Wiseguys was the unique flavors of pizza. There was a kettle chip pizza, a lemony zesty pizza, (I liked it but the person I was with didn't so your satisfaction will probably vary from slice to slice), and then your traditional meat, veggy, and jalapeño zas. The decor is fun and original! Pick up a slice for the go or order up for the stay but either way I think you will be fairly satisfied. The reason I gave this fun hangout a 3 is because I did't leave with a "wow, that was awesome!" feeling. It was more like, "Ya, that was pretty good pizza." read more

Wiseguy Pizza Pie - Get your pizza on! - Pizza Near Me - Boise, Idaho

We arrived a little before 9pm on Monday night, after The Front Door had closed early. We still wanted Pizza!! Though they were closing in 5 minutes, they made us a pizza to go and we had a beer while it cooked. Great tap beer list, by the way! Manama Mosaic Eruption was delicious. We ordered a Wise Guy - pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms, red onion, and black olive, and added fresh tomato. It was pretty tasty, but would've been better if we had been able to eat it piping hot at the restaurant with a tap beer, instead of 10 minutes later in the hotel lobby. I had a house salad - mostly lettuce, a few cult and tomato slices, red onion and not-so-yummy croutons. Stick with the pizza! The guys working were super nice. They have slices, too. read more

Can I get a slice of pepperoni and 2 health code violations for dine in? Over an hour after I ate I was able to say good bye to some of the pizza's that greeted me when I came in. (they should have been thrown out after an hour per code ...Gross) This is a hard order to fill in a lot of other places but here at Wise Guy's they gladly deliver. In my quest to find the best NY pizza my travels took me to Guido's and next here, in my previous post NY Giant came out on top but how did Wise Guy's do? Let's just say the atmosphere is way better than NY giant and Guido's combined, (sports bar meets brick bistro) First off BEST Coca Cola In the valley (carbon, water, syrup ratio is on point. Not that it matters) - Price Again same problem as Guido's the price is like we are in Manhattan not In Boise. Size- Again it fits on the plate (paper plate) 1/2 the size of authentic NY pizza. Flavor- I needed help so I consulted the 2 wise guys on painted on the wall, When I asked them how is my pizza bottom burnt yet the top looks barely cooked they were just as lost for wisdom as I was. (Oh well) To make matters worse the pizza was bland and the cheese was a hard congealed mess, it was not stretchy as melted cheese should be. The sauce has some potential as I tasted it apart from everything else... so yay something good. Overall- My experience sitting in the big back room was that this place is run by a bunch of college guys, I watched one drink from his open container in the sight of all the customers. (against health code) I spent over an hour dining here on purpose and making various phone calls. Now many reviews state the pizza tasted old and flavorless, I was curious if I would witness old pizza being sold and I did. Another cooking 101 pizza is 80 percent cooked, it then cooks the other 20% when you order. 80% cooked pizza sitting for more than an hour is breeding ground for bacteria and also strips cheese of the moisture giving it a non gooey texture. NY Giant Still reigns as the best NY pizza in Boise Guido's tops wise guy by a landslide, but hey a digiorno beats this pizza. (Disclaimer) *All tasting was performed under a sober palette* read more

Great pizza and wings. Relaxed comfortable environment. Beer selection is perfect, not to many choices, six drafts with local selections and miscellaneous bottled craft beer like Stone and Rogue. I agree with the comments that the sauce could use a little kick, I felt like salting mine (but didn't!). The crust is thin and crunchy, but still has some softness to it. We had the wings with the garlic knots and while each was really good alone, together it was something special. The wing sauce had a kick to it and dragging the knots through the wing sauce was killer. Reminded me of the old Semenzas in Reno. I'm looking forward to going back and trying some sandwiches. read more

Was bummed out that this place wasn't as good as the reviews made us think it would be. Really nice staff, but the gluten free pizza crust was probably one of our least favorite that we've tried. Thin, not a lot of flavor, and not cooked properly to get it to be either chewy or crispy. The toppings didn't feel fresh or well balanced. We would have been happier with something from the freezer. :( read more

Perhaps that it is the fact that I went here on my first date with my fiance, but I fell in love with Wiseguys 4 and a half years ago. They are about as pricey as IPC or Flying Pie, bit with better pizza and a convenient downtown location. The namesake Wiseguy pizza is my favorite but they have a good selection. Their garlic knots are tasty af too. For the drinkers, there are a long list of craft beers from local breweries. If you're unsure about what to get, the staff is super friendly and helpful. Yep, def one of my favorite local pizza shops! read more

Came to get a slice a pizza. Wasn't thrilled. There weren't very many selections and it was reheated pizza which then made the pizza dry and crunchy. Waste of money. read more

Oof. To echo some other reviews here, I wanted to like Wiseguys from the start. As a human being, I am naturally predisposed to wanting to like and enjoy any pizza that comes my way. Immediate pros upon walking in the door: - You can swap out your lunch special soda for a PBR, no upcharge. Yeah, I'll bite. - Reasonably spacious joint. It's deceptively small when coming in from the street before you see the second space towards the back. Decent atmosphere. - Friendly staff, by all accounts. - The price is right - special slices go for 3$ and change, regular slices for around 2. They cover most of the area of a paper plate, as NY style slices should. Special slices have some fun topping combos, which can be fun to experiment with. I grabbed the slice and salad special with a PBR, boyfriend gets two slices and a soda, plus some garlic knots to share. All the food comes out within 10 minutes or so, with the salad and knots coming first. I pick at my caesar and it's overdressed to hell and back, but no big deal. Knots are also lackluster - not really garlicky, not especially oily/buttery, just kinda plain and doughy. That's too bad but not a dealbreaker, either. I hate to say it, but the pizza is just not very good. It was fresh, which is something, but not enough to save this pie. Trying to fold the slice results in the pizza folding under the weight of its own toppings. I suspect the culprit is a serious oversaucing - the sauce is fine, but it's just a little too heavy and wet to work on this style of pie. The dough has no real redeeming qualities. As other reviewers have noted, the cheese is just plain terrible. Consistency seemed to be an issue, since boyfriend ordered the same slice as me but didn't have the same issue with the sauce. He has confessed to having fairly forgiving standards on pizza because it's pizza, but he still didn't like his slice. I ended up not really finishing mine, because it progressively bummed me out as I worked further into it. I like the idea of this place, the execution just desperately needs reworking. It could do in a pinch as a late night option, but other than that I don't think I'd return. read more

I really want to like Wiseguy, but their pizza is just plain bad. First, here's what's good (Boise location): *Great space *Great lunch specials *Trade your soda for a 12 oz. PBR *Convenient downtown location As for the bad: *The pizza is not good. I hit Wiseguy every so often because it's close to my home and work, and I dig the PBR/soda swap-out option. I definitely don't seek it out, though, because the pizza is always just mediocre. However, the pizza I was served on my last visit was god awful. I've honestly had better frozen pizza - way better, in fact. *The service can be hit and miss. Sometimes you get good help, and sometimes the crew is just not quite there. There are lots of good pizza options in Boise and downtown. Wiseguy, sadly, isn't one of them. read more

This is one of my favorites in Boise the crust isn't bland like most pizza downtown and it's never been soggy or cold when delivered... the staff is always welcoming and patient. Also, they deliver to Prefunk and my other favorite downtown place won't so now I only go here for my pizza needs! Side note... as a New Yorker it's humorous that people from here believe guidos even compares to wiseguys... worst pizza I've had in Boise to date is from guidos. I even went back to give them another try after my can of sauce on dry unseasoned bread and Sysco brand cheese and it was even worse. Papa johns makes a better pizza then them, don't be fooled by the "New York style pizza" claim it ain't even close to New York. Stick with Wiseguys they make a wonderful pie!!!! read more
