He remembered my kids from the last time we were here, the pizza crust was crispy and flaky just the way I like it, and was delicious! Highly recommend. Will be coming back!
Wonderful experience here. We ordered a calzone to share. The man behind the counter noticed we were sharing and told us he’d pick the biggest one for us (unnecessary, but kind). Calzone was delicious, service was great. We both enjoyed. A good lunch for ~$10! Will be back.
First of all I’m from Houston and I’m a serious foodie. Pizza is one of my all time favorite foods as well. I actually use to own a bbq restaurant several years ago. I’m working here in Lubbock for the next few months and I was craving some good pizza like back home and decided to see who the best rated pizza was in the area. Dario’s had the best reviews by far so I decided to give them a try. I was really hopeful when they didn’t have a website or menu online and most of the people commenting on the place said there is long wait times and that it’s the best pizza they ever had. Im not trying to be mean but if you locals really think this is the best pizza you’ve ever had then I feel sorry for you. The major problem with this establishment is it’s using Sysco brand ingredients. In particular this pizza vendor is using the Arrezzio brand which is owned by Sysco and it’s the same mass produced garbage that’s in a lot of these restaurants that are failing. None of the ingredients from this brand are fresh whatsoever. The crust is premade and frozen, the sauce and even the mushrooms come from a can. None of the vegetables are fresh and all come Pre-diced in giant plastic bags. All the ingredients are loaded with preservatives and chemicals. Go look at the ingredient list yourself. This is generic mass produced pizza that’s similar to frozen pizza. It’s simply put together and reheated. Paying over $20 dollars for this type of pizza is crazy. Now I will give the owner credit for having a really nice gas fed pizza oven. It gives the crust a nice texture and cooks the pizza perfectly. This is the only reason I gave a two star review instead of a one star. If he used fresh ingredients with that oven then he would no doubt have the best pizza around. But he uses cheap ingredients with a good oven. It’s the same equivalency as owning a sports car and putting regular gas in it. Nice cars like that deserve premium gas. It’s a shame his Rolls-Royce of an oven is cooking that slop. I really hope the owner of this company sees this comment and changes his food vendor and lazy ways. Take the time and make your dough and sauce in house from scratch. Have fresh ingredients like basil, tomato, garlic and mozzarella. If you don’t make these changes then you are basically serving the same pizza that the pizza shops in the mall serve.
