Virtuoso Pizzeria

Another wonderful pizza! Continues to be , in my mind , one of the best pizzas in Omaha for New York style pizza lovers. Great crust, great sauce, and add some of their homemade sausage and you've got the makings of winner. Greatness takes time so plan on waiting at least 30 minutes for pizza or call ahead. Home made cannolis, etc. and we were offered a special treat today to taste their New England clam chowder - Ended up taking some home - yum!!Always a great stop for a super casual meal with many special to go options

Authentic thin crust pizza with the right balance of sauce and cheese. Coming from New York, pizza must be foldable to eat and this was just that! This pic does not do the slice justice cause it was big!

This is a legit good pizza place for dinner. Crust has great chew. Flavors are there. The Italian sausage is really good. It's a tad pricey for a whole pie but worth it. Will be back for sure.

The pizza is excellent. It was one of the best I've had in this city. My favorite was the peperoni and specialty pizza. The cheese pizza was good but not the best that I've had. If you go during peak dinner hours, expect there to be limited seating. They do have bar tables to use and stand to eat. It's not a sit-down restaurant, its a order at the counter type place. Which helps with the trafficnduring busy hours. The staff is extremely nice and works hard to keep the wait time done. Everyone is extremely nice.

Virtuoso Pizzeria is a little gem right in our Benson neighborhood. The owner, David Losole, is a certified Pizzaiolo, from the famed Lo Sole Mio restaurant family in Omaha - and the generations of love put Into the food definitely shows.Virtuoso opened a few years back, and we ventured there as soon as they were open (and have been back many times). You can't go wrong with anything you order!The ambiance and service is also a 10/10. Classic pizza shop vibes with a front counter display showing the pizzas on order that day. We usually order pizza (obviously), but my husband also likes to get the Chicago Italian Beef sandwich. It's toasty buns, filled with a ton of Italian beef and giardiniera (pickled peppers). You can get it dipped in au jus or with the au jus on the side - we always get it dipped! The pizza slices are never too greasy and soggy, like some places can be, and the slices are GIGANTIC - almost a fourth of a whole pie. You can eat the slices flat, but it's a little messy that way, so I fold mine in half which makes it a little more manageable. Folding pizza slices in half usually makes the dry crust the first thing you taste, but that is fine here because Virtuoso's crust is actually toasted and tasty!Pizza-wise, we usually get the pepperoni, cheese, or meatball. The pepperoni has a little kick to it, which I enjoy. The cheese is just super cheesy and divine. And the meatball is delish and savory, with almost an airy/flowery flavor that I think comes from the Italian spices. SO GOOD!After your pizza or sandwich, they also have some delectable cannolis - I recommend the Chocolate Nutella! They also have a little walk up window if you want to come to the window and just order a quick slice while walking around the Benson neighborhood. If you are in Benson or passing by, I definitely recommend a stop here if you're craving a good pizza or sandwich!

This New York style pizza hits the spot. Giant slices that are light on the cheese but heavy on flavor. They have a few pizzas you can buy by the slice otherwise everything else is in full pies only. They also have a few pastas and a rotating soup. They sell bottles beverages and have a water station. The cheesy bread gives elevated school lunch vibes (in the best way). The bread was similar to a hotdog bun. SO much cheese that got crispy on the edges. Would definitely reco getting a side of Marinara. The Cannoli is 2 little pieces which is perfect for sharing and a great small size after all that pizza. Check out the walk up window for a grab and go slice! They make their Italian sausage in house so give that a try. Parking is a nightmare in Benson so go early. There was a sign that they had parking in the back but I did not check that out.

I joined my friend and his family for dinner here last month and it was pretty dang good.You walk in and all of the employees seemed really happy to be there and were very welcoming; which made a huge difference on our experience.I got the Jimbo Italian Hot Beef sandwich and it was kind of small, but pretty good. I also got a cup of clam chowder which was good as well, but IMO not worth the $9 for the little cup of soup.My friend and his family split a pizza and the pizza was pretty good as well.We all got a couple orders of their cannoli's and they were just okay. You get two really small cannoli's for $8. When in Rome, but those little guys weren't worth $4 a piece to me.I've heard about this place for a while and the food was really good. I just wish the prices reflected the quantity just a tad bit more. With that said, I would come back and try something else.

Amazing NY style pizza. This place is amazing! Hands down best pizza in Omaha. Crust was cooked perfect, plenty of crunch.

I don't know how to appropriately express my feelings for this place. Whatever you think about pizza, you don't know until you've tried it here. With slices the size of a small child, baked to perfection, it's hard to find an equal. The homemade vodka sauce on a slice with pepperoni cups and fresh mozz is heavenly. The salad is layered with fresh thick shaved parm, sweet red pepper, and a balsamic vinaigrette. They have a small variety of drinks, but a nice dry red is perfect with the pizza and salad combo. The staff is all friendly and helpful, you'll have a fantastic pizzeria experience here!

The Food The Atmosphere Everything is flawless and the servers its like all they know is fine dining and breathing
