Reviews for Black Lotus Pizza in Pittsburgh, PA
We stopped here and were not hungry at all but wanted to play some games and hang out so we ordered a pizza and ended up eating... almost all of it. Probably some of the best pizza I've had in Pittsburgh. If you're a nerd and you're looking for a boardgame/magic/dnd hangout I would wholeheartedly recommend this place. It's adorable, the staff are super nice and the vibes aregood! ???? Read more
Excellent vibes! A quintessential pizza shop with fun nerdy decor. Great music, game selection, and phenomenal black garlic... pizza. I only popped in for a pickup order, but definitely want to go back to dine in and play games with friends! Read more
Extremely underrated and overlooked pizza place! This is seriously one of the best white pizzas I've ever had. And, they were... offering $5 off for takeout and $10 off on Uber Eats. The prices were already quite reasonable. I tried their black garlic whitepizza, fried dough, and an extreme chocolate chip cookie. That white pizza was so good! I got a medium 13" and it wasdefinitely quite large. The white sauce they use is so flavorful and savory. I can understand why some say it's too rich, but Ifound it perfect. It's a bit similar to Alfredo sauce, but not quite the same. Creamy, salty, amazing. The garlic flavor isn'ttoo strong, which is what I hoped. It's got some nice herbs as well. Their thin crust is actually quite thin and crispy! Manyother places don't make thin crust this perfectly. Their crust is also way better than any place I've tried recently. It'scrunchy, crispy, a bit buttery, cheesy, amazing. Their cheese is high quality as well. I wasn't too impressed by the frieddough, but it was still good. The dough is similar to the delicious stuff they make the pizza with, so can't go wrong. Theyserve it with chocolate syrup and powdered sugar. Good portion for price. I'm pretty sure they used Hershey syrup, though, andI'm just not a fan of that stuff. It paired well with my leftover jam though. I thought they made a great chocolate chipcookie. They are definitely generous with how much chocolate they use! I especially enjoyed the cookie when it was warmed. I'ddefinitely recommend trying it; just an extra $2.50. Although I haven't had a sit down meal here, I've heard they don't get toocrowded at lunch time, so that is nice. They also offer games and other activities, too. All in all, I'm surprised this placedoesn't get much attention. It deserves praise, and their white pizza is some of the best in the area. Their cookies are quitegood too. Read more
One of the best pizzas I've ever had! And I grew up eating authentic Italian and Greek style pizzas. Big slices, thick crust,... delicious sauce, tasty cheese and generous toppings. Dining in is a good option. Plenty of seating. Plus they have board andcard games available, and Game Nights and other events scheduled throughout the week. Super nice and friendly owners who areactually present. Delicious wings too, from mild and tasty to hot n tangy. Read more
Great place for board games and meeting friends. The menu is surprisingly large for a board game cafe and the food was really... good. Service was quick and friendly. Can?t wait to come back Read more
This is the kinda pizza shop you wished for as a kid. Board games, MtG cards, and RPG books are just as prevalent as the pizza,... wings, burgers and beer. Come on a Thursday night and sling some spells with your fellow nerds. Or bring your own gaming groupand spend the evening. The food is great and the staff is friendly. Read more
I haven't tried their pizza yet, but the burgers here? Amazing. Not only are they a great deal especially if you get a side of... fries, but they're flavorful, not sloppy, made with quality meat, and are very filling too. I'm super glad I decided to givethis place a try. Update: The chimera burger is incredible. PLEASE get it Read more
Black Lotus Pizza is my local pizzeria, although they offer more than pizza. While they currently offer vegan options, they are... happy to simply leave the cheese off a pizza if you request that. My personal favorite is the signature zesty sauce on the handtossed crust. They also host game, trivia, and movie nights. I have not attended any of the events, but I plan to in thefuture. Friendly and accommodating staff. Fast service. Read more
