We did a pick up order for an 18" cheese pizza with Canadian bacon, Italian sausage, and pepperoni, and we also ordered the fried cheese ravioli. When I went in to pick up the order, the atmosphere in this was refreshing and cozy. The lady at the front was very friendly and the service was prompt. The food was absolutely delicious. The pizza was spot-on with the chewy crust. The fried cheese ravioli was crispy and delicious with the marinara dipping sauce.

Pizza here is really tastey. Big slices with a nice crust and they dont scimp on the toppings. You can basically build your own or choose from a combination from the menu. Service is quick: no complaints here. Very satisfied with pizza everytime i choose Lovers.

It has been a few years since I've been to this location, the Lover's on Garland Rd is now closer. The place has not changed at all since my last visit. The slices are still large, and have gone up a bit in price. I used to get two slices for about $5 and now it is $7. I may be not correct but I thought the sausage was crumbles but now they are like pellets. I prefer the crumbles. The crust was not as crisp or as thin as I remember. But I was stuffed after two slices. They still bring your slices to you, so service has not changed. The ambience is still similar to what you would find in a suburb of New York or New Jersey. Overall, not a bad experience and I would return.

This is a public service announcement for any and all who are considering a Lover's Pizza and Pasta meal:The pastas all include a side salad, and if you order something that doesn't come with (i.e. pizza, sandwich, dessert) you should definitely order at least a dinner salad (only $4.25). "Why would I want salad with my cannoli?" you might ask. The answer lies in the LP&P House Italian dressing. It is an amazing tomato-ey vinaigrette. I'm not even a salad dressing fan...at least I wasn't before this. If you order larger, like the Lover's Salad (with roasted red peppers, green and black olives, salami, pepperoni, cheese...$8.50) it comes with TWO sides of vinaigrette. One is typically enough by my standards, so I save the second to "dress" up the next sad salad I make at home.With the ISDA (important salad dressing advisory) out of the way, please step into the Calzone zone. I LOVERS these ricotta-filled pizza pockets, and the one I ordered last night made a hearty dinner, breakfast AND lunch for one for under $10! It comes with ricotta, mozzarella, parmesan + one pizza topping of your choice and a side of pizza sauce. Their stromboli is the meaty equivalent with beef, sausage, pepperoni and mozzarella, also only $9. The pastas are on par with those offered by other pizzerias...satisfying, filling, but fairly unremarkable, but did I mention that they come with a dinner salad? If you are jonesing for something noodle-based, you could definitely do worse. Sometimes I have a hankering for eggplant parmesan, and Lovers' version (served with spaghetti) doesn't disappoint. My daughter is a fan of the chicken parm. So, are you curious about the pizza? Another cool thing about Lovers' is that you can order pizza by the slice...and they are sizeable slices at that! This is always a great option to accompany the salad you order because the dressing is so damn good, or if you are dining with a child (or childlike) companion who refuses to eat pizza with onions, mushrooms, olives, or anything good on it. I've only had the regular pizza, and its great. They have a thick crust pizza that I really want to try, but the only size is 12" x 16". While I can eat a calzone for three meals in a row, I'll wait for a bigger group to order this pie.

"I can't believe we don't eat here more often." - my familyWell, we definitely will start eating here a lot more! My family just ordered pickup from Lover's Pizza & Pasta for the first time in a long time. The restaurant uses authentic Italian recipes and fresh ingredients to make everything taste delicious and flavorful! We never dine in because we find their location convenient for delivery or pickup but, the restaurant is charming/cozy and the staff is friendly. FYI: it's BYOB. They serve large portion sizes so you'll have plenty of leftovers. Their pastas come with salad and bread. The calamari, fried to perfection, comes with two types of sauces. The pizzas come in four different sizes, starting at 12 inches, and they offer three varieties- thin, thick, and gourmet (we ordered thin, including one "build your own" pizza). Plus, you can order by the slice. Overall, they offer a little bit of everything to meet any family member's expectations when ordering Italian food. We look forward to trying the entrees and sandwiches, as well as the desserts, next time!

Their pizza was my favorite. A few years back the quality became inconsistent and now I'm sad to say the quality is consistently underwhelming. While there is no such thing as bad pizza, we now place our orders elsewhere.

This is my second review for Lover's on Mockingbird. My first one must have been well over a couple of years ago.In times of covid, there are few go to spots that have made it in our rotation. I am glad to say that Lover's Pizza and Pasta on Mockingbird is one of them. We frequently get takeout and they have just the right protocols in place to make you feel at home but still understood that there is a pandemic going on.We have done curbside and I have ventured in a couple of times to pick up as well. Their service is outstanding. We have never had an issue with order accuracy or timing. Everything is punctual and the food is always delicious. In terms of specifics, I highly recommend their lobster ravioli, chicken marsala, their wings, and of course their pizza!The pizza is true NYC style pizza and even the dough has that amazing crunchy but soft texture in every bite. The lobster ravioli has delicious chunks of lobster and the creamy sauce is to die for. Side note - I also love the dinner rolls they serve with their entrees. For some reason, I could eat dozens of these! The wings are great too. They are fried, but hey - you ordered chicken wings! I do like that they put the sauce on the side so you can dip in the sauce along with some ranch/blue cheese OR you can toss them yourself. The chicken marsala is good too and they serve it with some nice pasta.All in all, I highly recommend Lover's - especially their takeout! They also have free delivery but do know that they can get busy so sometimes it is worth to just make the trip.

I may be the only Yelper like this, but there are times I realized there is a place near me that I've never been to and see it more than once a day. This is one of those places!Now, I've been here three times and feel qualified to write a review! My last trip was for a quick pizza and salad. The parking lot is large and it is easy to see it from Mockingbird. Inside, there are mostly booths with a few tables in the middle. The décor is warm and inviting. During my trips, it is not crowded, but don't think it isn't busy! Lot's of call in and walk ups for take out orders! The menu is huge with lots of variety of American-Italian dishes, pizzas and calzones. This last trip, I asked the counter staff what is their favorite pizza and all said pepperoni, so we ordered one plus a couple of salads. The salads were more than enough and although nothing special, they were quite good with fresh Romaine. The pizza was ready pretty quickly. It may not be the healthiest or ever make it a TV food show, but it was very tasty with a great cheesy, tomato sauce sweet/salty flavor! I now understand all of the call ins and take outs for pizza!The staff is friendly, helpful and keep it very clean. The price is very reasonable and I will come here again!
