Tasteless pizza!!!

by pizza luce sucks

I feel sorry for all the people who say Pizza Luce is the best pizza they have ever eaten. The only thing the place has going for it is that everyone thinks it is cool to eat there, otherwise it would be out of business.

  • Pros: open late
  • Cons: pizza sucks

This place can go F@#K OFF!! The "Owner" just told me so...

by goldie73

I ordered for delivery at 1:20 am to my apartment, at 2:30am I called back to 612-333-7359 to inquire on my order....without any hesitation, the man who answered put me on hold and another man picked up and told me "Don't EVER order from us again, I f@cken hate you"...."I will never deliver to you again"! and yada, yada, yada....I just sat there with the (my cell phone) on my ear and tried to interject, but he wouldn't stop. I have no idea what happened, but, I have myself and 4 others here STILL waiting for something to eat (we play poker every monday night, so we get hungry sometimes). Again, I don't have any idea what the deal is, other than being completed blind sided by the dumba@ses that work and THINK they OWN PIZZA LUCE. Yeah, whatever.

When I called back, well he must have informed EVERYONE or else he was having a really bad menstrual?? But another man put the phone down and I could here the a@@hole in the background telling him to tell her "We don't want to deliver to you, we NEVER want to deliver to you, DON'T ever call us AGAIN!"

This is the hardest part. I have lived dt mpls since 1998 and have ordered from Pizza Luce numerous times in all the years. In the past year ( we moved to Golden Valley a year ago to build a house) we have ordered from Pizza Luce maybe 5x at the most....NEVER ANY PROBLEMS (minus the extremely long human hair found in the spaghetti I ordered last march ;() and to have someone just go off on me for no apparent reason, other than being short staffed or overworked, maybe just being a complete asshole...well he ( or them) have a lot to learn about business and retaining customers AND keeping a job.

When I called rignt back on my land line, I received the "Thank you for calling pizza luce, how can I helpyou" bull@hit, but I still haven't figured out why the "owner"---YES, this man said he was the owner...(Yeah, the owner of a pizza delivery auto probably) and he was never going to deliver to me again....I have been waiting over an hour...no food, no call from them that they were here to deliver, no food, no reason as to why the dumb f@ck delivery man never rang or EVER SHOWED UP!!! I am on the 4th floor, right above the drive where any and all people come thru an I NEVER received a call from the phantom driver with our food, nor did I/us ever see a person (NONE, this place isn't huge, but after 1 year here and ordering delivery from everywhere) drive up or into the area. ???? I WOULD NOT EAT PIZZA LUCE!!!

THEY DON'T KNOW THAT I Have my phone "tapped" and when I did get some punk on the phone when I called back, they told me to call "MIKE" at 612-333-7359--apparently they have different owners or partners working different shifts....Funny how this will all work out....everyone here (that's 6 people, which 4 live within a couple of blocks) WILL NEVER GO THERE AGAIN!!!

Have fun finding new jobs A@@holes.....Oh yeah, I'm pretend to be gainfully employed in a snooty, snoot job//////doesn't matter who I am, IT'S WHO I KNOW!!!!! Bye, bye employees....My "Daddy" will take care of this for me ;)

Don't waste your money on last weeks pizza sauce and decades old service fucks....order papa johns or dominoes---it may not be the "best", but it is reliable and consistent. Peace. Never again, this was already a terrible monday, I can't even begin to describe how we all feel here right now.....What a travesty.

great after-bar food

by hage0269

This place if pretty urban, if you will. Think lot's of urban people and not the good kind. Additionally, I find this pie over rated and expensive. I like that they have the quick serve/by the slice area. It's great for the afterbar. Bring cash bc you have to buy a ticket from security. If you have a credit card, they give attitude. Service is EXTREMELY random. Some employees are fantastic and some are morons. Delivery is nice but can take 45-90 minutes.

Comfort Food

by PorcelainKettle

Living on a diet consisting 3/4 of pizza, I declare Pizza Luce to be the 'comfort food' of pizzas. Warm and filling with a variety of toppings to suit your craving, even mashed potato. They even come in pretty boxes.

  • Pros: The pizza
  • Cons: when the pizza is eaten :(
5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

Unbelievable food!

by JohnnyRingo51

Over 50 toppings (we counted), hand tossed dough and a great beer selection. We came down on an early Sunday and to our amazement they even do BRUNCH! It was awesome, try the Portobella Benedict. Anyone who doesn't like Pizza Luce is anti good food.

  • Pros: Great food, great beer, GREAT BRUNCH!
  • Cons: parking, restaurant on the corner (Centerfield??) is creepy

PIZZA LUCE= Amazing pizza, great service, and fun family friendly atmosphere!!!

by andiranchero

Luce is the filet mingon of all pizza restaurants. I have been a fan of the locally owned restaurant for years and have yet to have one bad thing to say. The pizza and appetizers are great along with a really good wine list. Very resonabley priced and fun atmosphere...

...lets not forget the year ..2008..., folks with tattoos and unique style can be VERY successful and most importantly happy!!!! If your a judgemental prude then this is not your spot, maybe go for delivery. And any review I have ever read where there is actually a complaint I just have to think that is from a person who complains about everything and is never satisfied, get over yourself! PIZZA LUCE ="DA BOMB" of all pizzas. Now eat that!

  • Pros: Great service and quick
  • Cons: small parking lot

Waaaaay overrated

by samboo

The tons of hype is one thing this place does not live up to.

I've tried this place a number of times and I just don't see it. The pizza base is where the problems begin for me, and the toppings do it no favours either. Flavourless... If you want pizza in this town go to the Monte Carlo and have their flatbread appetizer pizza.

UNDERCOOKED FOOD!

by gyrlygamer

RE: Delivery - I ended up with cold soggy undercooked pizza dough with cold veggies and meat toppings. Gross! I had to recook the pizza every time before my family could eat it. I even tried to order "thin" crust. Instead I got thick crust not fully cooked throughout the pizza. The chicken wings have been under cooked, whereas the meat does not come away from the bone. Had to recook also. Serious health concerns about this food. Buyer Beware! Luce' may been the "rage" in the early 2000's. "Not" no more. I have not wasted time "eating in" their resturants. Sounds like they have a lot of "punks" with attitude waiting on you. Undercooked food can make a person "stuck up." CARROT CAKE IS GREAT!

  • Pros: Fast Delivery
  • Cons: Undercooked Dough/Wings
