    This has to be the best pizza in Fort Wayne hands down. Don't confuse it with Oley's on Coliseum. They don't compare. Oley's on 24 is the only one that matters. Great food and great service! In one word...YUM! And those garlic knots? You won't beat them. You won't!

    Door dashed delivery so can't comment on service / atmosphere. First time customer for Oley pizza trying experience and officially saying their single crust deluxe pizza (added banana peppers) has replaced my love for Pizza Kings Royal Feast. Absolutely will purchase again! Yummmy!

    We had the deep dish deluxe and I got to say that was the best deep dish pizza that we ever had!!!! It’s worth the 35 mile drive for us to get it! I give them a 5star you won’t be disappointed!

    Had Oley's on 24 for the first time tonight. Got the margherita bread as an appetizer and it was sooo good! For our pizza we chose the Godfather as a deep dish and it definitely did not disappoint! The wait staff was wonderful and so was our overall experience. Highly recommend! (We showed up around 4:30 and beat the crowd. They quickly had a large line of people waiting for a table).

    I found out about Oley's pizza way back in the 1980's. A friend suggested it, said, "You'll never believe this pizza". Holy guacamole, was he right! Now, every time I get to this burg a stop at Oley's is required! Not an option, don't care what you're hungry for. I'm a little saddened to see they're down to just two locations, there used to be four and this is one I've never been to. Don't walk through the door too fast, you'll end up on the line making pies. At least you can watch the magic happening while you wait the world's slowest 30 minutes which is how long it takes make a double crust pizza (call ahead!). It is sooooo worth it. Or wait in your car, they'll bring it to you. Wait in the bar and remember not to drink or your pizza will get cold while you sober up. The family room and bar look like they haven't been updated since they opened this location in 1990. All those wafer-thin New York style pizza fans have no idea what they are missing. If you don't need a ruler to measure your pizza's thickness, it's just a frisbee and should be thrown as far as it'll go.

    Best pizza in the world, and I’m a pizza expert, or think I am. Seriously , moved here from Tampa FL and travel all over the country. Their deep dish meat lovers is the best I’ve ever had! Thank-you Oleys!

    They deserve way more than 5 stars. The pizza had to be the best I have ever had in my 40 some years of pizza. Great sauce, good quality toppings and tons of cheese. The salad was simple but different, it had bacon and cheese and some veggies and the house dressing was so good. The sausage roll (stromboli) was amazing. They have something for everyone, and everyone with us loved what they got. Plan on waiting if you dine in, the place is a bit small inside. But trust me, the food is worth the wait.

    Yes, just yes. What ever your questions, concerns, or thoughts are about I'd you should go or not, the answer is yes you should go, especially if you are a fan of deep dish. We order the small deep dish supreme and an order of the margherita bread and they were absolutely phenomenal!!!!! Staff were great as well. This isn't a $5 pizza, our bill came to $40, and we also had sodas. This is one of those things were you get what you pay for. It is well worth the money, πŸ’―% I would be my go to place if I didn't live two hours away!!!

    First time at Oley's & we will be going back, even though we have to travel nearly 25 miles to get there. Although we had to wait about a 1/2 to be seated, it was worth the wait! We ordered the cheese bread & a small deep dish pizza for 2 of us. The cheese bread was amazing & so was the pizza. We ate all of the cheese bread between us! The spices were just the perfect blend to make your mouth water. Seriously, could eat the cheese bread & nothing else, it was that good! Our pizza was perfectly baked. Many deep dish pizzas end up getting soggy. but not here. The flavor was wonderful! We were only able to each eat one slice & carried the rest home. It was as close to deep dish Chicago pizzas that I've ever had. The staff was very helpful & amazing & helped us through the 1st time customer process. The place was clean & well kept. The Italian posters on the wall were fun too. Again, gotta go back really soon & will pass at LEAST 10 other pizza joints on the way.....

    Traditional crust pizza with a delicious cheese blend! Asked for light sauce on the pizza. It arrived with regular pizza sauce which is just too saucey for us! Ordered Italian meatballs as appetizer. Yummy with lots of cheese on them!

    My wife and I were in town visiting family that had just moved to the area. I used to have family in Chicago that I would visit often and living in the south I don't get deep dish pizza often. I wanted to try to find a Chicago-style deep or stuffed pizza. Oley's wasn't exactly what I expected but everything my family ordered was amazing. My wife and I had a small Soprano deep dish. The sauce was amazing and I loved the roasted garlic. My wife ordered some wings as an appetizer. Great flavor but wish they had been crispier. The star of the show was the meatball appetizer. The meatball was perfect and the gravy (sauce) was some of the best I've ever had. I probably won't get to visit Fort Wayne often but when I do I'll be stopping here again. Portions were so big that we actually brought some back to North Carolina. We've had 3 meals and still have one slice of pizza and some wings left.

    Very busy when we got there. But they took our name and we were able to sit in our vehicle until our table was ready. They called us. Food was excellent. Our server had many tables but she was always attentive to us. Great job Carmen. Still one of the best deep dish pizzas around!

    Fort Wayne is my hometown and everyone knows if you want great pizza, go to Oley's. Well, years ago I went to the one by coliseum and lake. I was not impressed. Then EVERYONE said to try the one out southwest on 24. I did and they were right! It was only for myself, so I got the pizza roll thinking it was smaller. Nope! This thing was a beast! It was heavy too with all the goodness stuffed inside! I'm 6'8" and 250lbs and can put away some food, but I maybe got halfway when I was ridiculously stuffed! It was so good!

    They really piled on the sausage under the toppings. Way more sausage than there should have been. No sauce, just sausage. Pizza was bland. Bottom of the crust was completely soggy. Maybe it was just a miss, but I won't bother going again.

  • 5/5 Philip W. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered carry out. We had a total of three pizzas and they had to weigh 15lbs. As always, our pizzas were excellent. I recommend Oley's to anyone looking for a memorable meal.
