    Well you have to like pizza because that’s the only menu item😁. It’s very good and sold by the slice or whole pizza. Crust was nice crisp. Toppings were perfectly balanced. Give it a try. Also had ice cream freezer which other highly rate.

    This is the coolest little pizza place in Virginia Tech where they have pepperoni, cheese, Mac bacon, garlic mushroom and sausage pizza each slice is cooked to order and it is delicious. One slice equals about four pieces of pizza. You cannot go wrong check it out.!!!!

    We were in the area to do a tour of VA Tech, since my daughter will be attending in the fall. Pros: The pizza slices are huge, so one slice is definitely enough for one person. Eating one slice is the equivalent of eating 2-3 slices of pizza. Cons: The pizza was just ok. It lacked sauce and didn't have enough cheese. Also, the restaurant (if you could even call it that) is small and dirty. I was afraid to set my purse down on anything. My family and I almost turned around when we saw the location, but decided to give it a shot since it is popular among the locals and college students. I personally will not return and would not recommend this place to others. I can see why it is popular with college students and think it is a place my daughter will enjoy, but it was not for me or my husband.

    I would liken Benny’s pizza to Times Square. A Blacksburg icon; Great when it’s empty, an absolute nightmare on a Friday night when it’s packed with people. Breathtaking at first sight, but leaves you thinking, “meh… is that all?” My most recent visit was the first time meeting employees in Blacksburg this rude to their customers. Waited 50 minutes for one slice of pepperoni pizza for a friend. Got jeered at by one employee after asking where the pizza was, who replied with “you’re not helpful,” on the way out. I was gently inquiring where my pizza was. Did not raise my voice at all. Really makes you regret recommending this place for 10+ years as a local.

    Really good pizzas, and very large. Even one slice is too much for me haha. Great price too. The staff is really nice and helpful. Would recommend!

    Been to quite a few Benny's and this one had the best crust by far, hands down!

    I really wanted to love this pizza. Unfortunately, the sauce was close to nonexistent and what was there can only be described as dry. Thankfully, I had ordered marinara because without it, my pizza wouldn’t have been pizza. I’ve never had a slice of pizza without sauce, not sure if the slices were old, or there was a mistake. Disappointing. Giving two stars because the guys working there were nice and let me do curbside pick up after a debacle trying to order delivery through 3 separate apps.

    Was very, very dissatisfied with our catering order. We ordered 9 pizze to be delivered at 11:30 AM for a lunch. By noon we called to ask where they were, to find out that they had forgotten about our order! They made the order and brought it to our event an hour late. Realized that they had also made the wrong order. I do not recommend Benny's for more than ordering one slice of cheese in house. Their catering is poorly managed and unprofessional and I do not ever recommend them.

    Home of The Virginia Slice as big as my forearm! Amazing crust and quality ingredients, pretty fast as well, they only open up in College towns, so the menu is limited to one giant size pizza or slices, a few toppings, and lots of beer/ soda options. As far as I know they are only open in Virginia, but have a ton of spots, don't miss em if you are traveling thru

    Enormous pizza slice is a whole meal. I regretted not getting garlic butter because the crust edge was thick and dry.

    Got a huge slice of Sriracha sausage special for $6.50, the sausage does pack a bit of a kick but nothing excessive. Cheese was ok, not my favorite, but the sauce was excellent, crust was perfect, just the right amount of thickness. Pleasant outdoor seating.

    Great pizza and an energetic atmosphere. Highly recommend walking over and grabbing a slice after knocking a couple back downtown. If you are not familiar with Benny's be aware, the slices are huge and delicious, well worth the price.

  • 3/5 Destinee 7 months ago on Google
    Benny’s was okay. The pizza itself had barely any sauce and it was burnt. This made it hard to swallow. If I’m ever in the area again I would try something different.

    Best pizza in the burg, it’s massive. You get two plates to eat one slice. It’s the greatest a college student could ask for LOL. As a VT alumni it’s great to come back and see how many people enjoy it too

    This is great late night pizza spot and it’s always busy late at night during the weekends. The pizza is quite good and they’re New York style so it’s pretty fun to eat. The only annoying thing are the big lines during the night time and that it’s really crowded, so it can easily take 30-45 mins to get your food.

    This place had Huge slices of pizza! One slice takes up over the size of two paper plates! Taste great for a pepperoni pizza. It’s in between thin and hand tossed thickness of bread good flavor! Definitely try them out!

    I wanted pizza boo don't really like pizza or Italian food at all. We found this by reviews. We stopped in it was just us. I thought it was mom and pop restaurant. The guy running it told us a little about the history they have a lot of them. We got the Quentin tarantino slice. This is the biggest slice of pizza either of us had ever seen or had. It was delicious!

    Decent for a pizza snack, but not a meal. We came here for a late night snack. And for that purpose, this would be a great place. The inside space is small but the outdoor seating area is definitely bigger. The pizza tasted good and the crust was okay. It was a little on the cold side and because it is pretty thin, it cools down and dries up quickly. The ranch sauce was not good. Overall the atmosphere is nice (outside) and the employees are very friendly. All factors combined, I would definitely come back if I want a snack but I would not go there for a main meal.

    Incredible Pizza, super cheap as well. Great place to come get tons of pizza for a low price. Will definitely go back. (Also, the slices are massive, which is a novelty in of itself)

  • 5/5 Ethan S. 5 years ago on Google
    Just a good slice of pizza. Quite large, in case you didn't know. Their rotating flavors are good, but you can't go wrong with cheese and pepperoni. If you need a quick lunch and don't want to buy a whole pizza, this is a great place. They're also open late should you find yourself in need of a midnight snack.

    This is the one ...... This is the biggest and tastiest slice of pizza I have ever had the joy in eating. If you love pizza please try you should not be disappointed. 😍
