“Great pizza and friendly service. We think it's the best pizza in town and the price is really reasonable. There's only one size, large. They run specials, also. There are other foods like soups and sandwiches and hotdogs, but we go there for the pizza. UPDATE: Pizza is no longer what we loved. It's not done! Other Lucky Louie's locations also seem to have the same problem when their pizza was so good before. They need to get the crusts done again!”
