    I don’t often give bad reviews but this needs to be said. This was probably my WORST pizza experience in my entire life. If you look at the picture I’ve attached. That is supposedly a "Margherita Pizza", I don’t know in what world is that a Margherita pizza, if you google it, you’ll see it doesn’t look that AT ALL. So the pizza tasted like it was frozen, it had a cardboard flavor. The tomatoes on the top weren’t even cooked, there was barely cheese and it tasted like plastic. Don’t go there if you have high standards for Pizza. I’ve been to New York maybe that’s why for me this is disgusting. The service was good though, nothing against the staff.

    Absolutely loved my personalized gluten free vegan pizza! Lean Garden small size with freshly roasted vegetables (sub mushrooms, no pineapple) and in-house pizza sauce with gluten free crust: Tasted amazing! Their gluten free crust is made of rice flour similar to the ones you purchase frozen as a dough on its own. I called in advance and they told me the ingredients which I really appreciated. Great customer service and when I went to pick up my pizza, was offered a drink while I waited. Highly recommend!

    The food was amazing. The Barnyard Massacre was delicious! My wife had the Margherita. Also great! And my son had a gluten free pizza crust and it was superb. Only down side was the service. Our server never came back to check on us. We had to ask for refills, etc. Kind of disappointing. But the food was simply fantastic.

    Ordered a pepperoni pizza to go. This is the most average pizza I have had in a long time. The crust is dry with no flavor and the pepperoni looks like it came from one of those $2 packets you get at a gas station. The cheesy garlic pizza chips are better than the pizza though!

    Very delicious pizza. The spaghetti with meatballs and salad dish is especially good too. Probably the best pizza place in tahoe👍

    Having just spent a few weeks travelling around Italy, where I had pizza in Rome, Florence and all along the south of Italy, this place is by far the best pizza I have had anywhere in the world. Even beats Lucali in New York for me and that was my number one for the last 8 years. Now this place is. We ordered the pesto chips, wow, still thinking about it. You have to get this. Then we ordered the cheese pizza, garlic chicken one and a third meat one and every single one was amazing. I ate my pizza slow to enjoy every bite. The base had a crisp to it that was amazing. I literally will drive back from San Francisco next time I am in this part of the world for this. Having reviewed almost 300 restaurants from around the world on Google, this is one of the few meals I will think about for a long time and now my number one pizza in the world. I have to give a mention to our amazing waitress, Daisy, who was really friendly, attentive and made us feel welcome. She added to the experience and I really wish this kind of amazing service was more common.

    After 50 years in business, they’ve got it down - serving Really good pizza! We were with friends that ordered thin crust, while we had the original crust that was still a little thin and crispy but with AMAZING edges. Everyone agreed the original would be the preferred crust in future visits. The garden vegetarian with added sausage and Canadian bacon was outstanding! The garlic chips, kind of like a garlic pizza was only so so, will skip it in the future, but we’ll be back for great pizza! Fun place as well, a little noisy and crowded.

    Outstanding pizza! Unique crispy thin crust. Tons of delicious, fresh toppings! My wife had the Mean Greek, I had the Tahoe Delight. Also had a wonderful salad bar, with really chunky blue cheese dressing. They know how to use high quality ingredients. Definitely a great pizza place.

    I ordered the fresh garden veggie pizza with vegan cheese. Although all the toppings and cheese were right, they added some meat as well on it. This really spoilt my day since I am vegan and had to throw away the whole pizza.

    So much fun! And the pizza is delicious. Not your typical Italian pizza but very good. Crispy crust, good sauce and excellent cheese. You will not be disappointed. It was very busy when we went but still received great service!

    Such a cute little place! Walked in and was greeted straight away! We sat outside and it was beautiful. Service was great. Noah was our server, 5 stars! Food was amazing! We love a good margarita pizza. The pizza dough was so delicious. Love how they do the edge crust! Spoke to a few locals that said in 9 years of them living in Tahoe they have never tried it. I told them they really should, you won't be disappointed! The only downside is now I'm going to want this pizza again and it is 8 ish hours away!

    Pizza is organic and I takes about 20 min. I recommend chicken garlic pizza. The pizza doesn’t fall apart and it has a content taste and it melts in your mouth. The pizza with marinara is pretty sweet and a little sour if you get the different marinara I forget the name but it’s more sour and spicy. It has good decor old fashioned and its very comfortable. The pizza is cooked in a brick oven. Alfredo sauce is amazing, I can’t describe the taste though. Great drinks I ordered jasmine orange tea it’s really good all the jasmine teas that I try usually tastes like raw wheat but this has a distinct taste.

    Very nice atmosphere and cool place. Really nice workers and service. Average pizza though, nothing special. Dough was dry and hard, cheese probably isnt the freshest. I just got a standard cheese pizza and wasnt impressed. 3/5 for me.

    Wow what an amazingly tasty pizza. And the crust though it may look unique to some don’t be fooled it is spectacular and crispy. Will definitely make this or favorite pizza spot ever time we visit!

    I had a chance to dine-in at the Lake Tahoe Pizza Company, I would say that the food was good, tasty and easily affordable. We ordered the following: 1. Fresh Garden (All veggie Pizza) : It was cheesy, crispy and tasty. 2. Marghetita Pizza: Ummn, let's say It could have more cheese to qualify for a margherita cheese pizza. The above one was more cheese-y. Having said that, the crust was so crispy and freshly-baked. The alcoholic beverages are nice: Champagne & Beer (tried and tasted) Non-alcoholic beverage deserve no more than 1-star, my friend ordered an iced tea, it tasted like sparkling water. Hope this review is helpful for your decision. :)

    My family and I have been getting pizza here during our vacations at Lake Tahoe. This is one of the best pizza places in this area! Everything about this place is unique based off of food and atmosphere. The pizza crusts are twisted and both the Jackpot and Margherita pizzas taste flavorful and delicious. We also ordered spaghetti and it tastes sweet. Didn't even realize that it's not in my Photos sadly :( The atmosphere of this place really matches the theme of Lake Tahoe. It is meant to be a wooden area with old decorations and structures too. The service is nice since they were able to complete our phone orders before we get to the place. I definitely recommend people to come here especially when taking a trip down here!

    I came here on a Friday night and was seated immediately. The outdoor seating was great. Service was quick and staff was friendly. I got a medium pizza and garlic chips to share for two people. More then enough food for two.

    Truly enjoyed the quaint atmosphere! The food was phenomenal! I’m usually a Chicago Pizza fan but this was some of the best I’ve had. I ordered the Margherita pizza and it didn’t disappoint. If you’re visiting the Lake Tahoe area look for this quaint little place. It’s worth your time !

    Everything about this place is wonderful. The food was delicious and the servers were very kind. I ordered pepperoni, jalapeno, and pineapple pizza. Yum! Wish I would've come here sooner
