Lj's Pizza Patio

Walked in right to pick up our Togo order right before they closed, was greeted by same man who took our order (evening of June 8th). He said we were the last group he was waiting to get the food for. (Didn't feel rushed or anything, I was just saying) The place is small, not too many tables to eat inside and is tucked away. Make sure you take N Miller St off main to get to parking lot, not Matlock. It's tucked behind some auto shop building or something. Pizza was pretty yummy, nothing spectacular. The crust was different from any pizza I had before. Also bummed that they didn't have wings.. he said they took it off menu. Ps- the guy who took our order was very patient, he may have been owner. Pizza was a 4 stars, but overall I'll give a 5 for review b/c guy was super nice and pizza was fresh! Probably won't go back, it was pretty overpriced but I do recommend you try it atleast once !

I ordered by phone before we left to pick up. The man was curt on the phone, no biggie. We came to this place, our first time, we like trying new pizza. I walked in, and there was a couple eating and a man waiting. I smiled at the couple eating, and they hastily looked away and pretended not to see me. Odd, lol. Anyway, I went up to the counter and saw an older man working. He saw me, didn't say anything, and continued on with whatever he was doing. I always dislike that, when workers in the food industry don't acknowledge you when you walk in. Anyway, the old guy finally walks up to me, not with a smile or friendly greeting, but he barked, with a scowl on his face, "What do you need?" I, taken aback with the way I was spoken to, took a couple beats to gather my words, and he said, "You call in?? What's the name?" I told him, and he said gruffly, "It's gonna be about 15 more minutes!" I said ok and sat down. Now, the man waiting for his pizza got REALLY friendly service, the same old man called out to him in a friendly tone, "Hey your pizza is right here! Have a good day and Merry Christmas!" When our pizza was done, he rudely said, "You pizza is ready!" And he turned and walked away and mumbled something to an older lady, who walked over to help us. Mind you, with that first interaction with that totally RUDE man, I almost just said "forget it, not dealing with someone like YOU today!", which is exactly what I do whenever I get service like this, but I was already late for a dinner date with my daughter, and going to ANOTHER place and waiting would put me way past the hour. So, I chose to suffer through the unease of the entire encounter. Sitting in there with unfriendly patrons and an ill mannered, impolite and discourteous "man" did NOT make for a pleasant experience. I'm so glad we weren't eating there, because all I wanted to do was run from that place of bad vibes. It was 28 dollars for a large pepperoni, which was surprising, since the Yelp said it was an inexpensive place. Oh well. We finally sat down to eat, and I asked my fellow consumers their honest opinion of the pizza. Top comment, the crust is good, it's flaky like a pie. One said it tastes like a frozen Red Baron pizza. I thought that it was BURNT, (see pic) and the most important thing of all pizza, the cheese STRETCH. There's no stretch whatsoever on this pie. There was no flavor in the sauce, or the crust. But I did like the edge of the pizza, that was good. All in all, the ONE star is for the pizza crust and the pleasant lady who took my money at the register, I guess the man didn't want to take our check like he so nicely took the Caucasian man's before us. I'm native American, and I went there with my native American son, and we felt very out of place at this establishment, but I can't say if we were treated the way we were treated by that ill mannered man because of this. But what else could be the reason for the offensive attitude toward us? I have no clue. We won't be going back.

Continues the legacy of his parents with great pizza- especially the barbecue pizza. Get a wave of nostalgia & patronize this small but legendary place! Very limited seating!

I just got LJ's a few weeks ago and plan to get it every week from now on. It's the best pizza I've had and the owners are so awesome!

LJ's is always our go to for pizza. The owner is such a nice guy and makes THE BEST pizza. Plus the crust is to die for! So yummy! Highly recommend!

Epitome of small business! Quaint and clean establishment with a few tables and friendly service! Got the Taco Pizza and Pepperoni and tasted just like the great pizza home in the Midwest. I look forward to returning!

Such a cute little place, very friendly staff!! The wings are amazing crispy and the ranch was one of the best I've had, the pizza was really good too!!!

Great pizza, thin crust. Very clean & friendly staff. There are small indoor & outdoor seating areas and restrooms available. Highly recommend! Support local!
