Gambino's Pizza

First time here. Went around 1pm. I was excited to eat here. Pizza on buffet has been sitting awhile and is soggy. No dessert pizza on buffet. The whole time I was there they didn’t put out a new pizza and the current stale pizza on the buffet remained. Pretty sure the pizza dough is precooked and they add toppings before running it through the oven. Salad bar was also disappointing. The eggs were so hard and rubbery. Grossed me out and did not finish the salad. I feel like you might as well get a pizza from a gas station since they are using precooked dough. Ending up spending 14.00 to eat two and a half slices of pizza with a water that had a nasty taste. I was going to ask for fresh pizza but the one worker disappeared for the whole time. Literally. Disappointed and won’t return or rec

This will be a new staple restaurant for me! Tried Gambinos for the first time today with my mom and daughter. We came in and ordered 2 adult lunch buffets and 1 kids buffet. It’s very reasonably priced. The lady at the front who we later found out owns the establishment along with her husband chatted with us for a bit. She asked if there was a special pizza we would like made to be put on the buffet and she got it right in the oven! She brought it straight to the table from the oven and served us before placing it on the line then proceeded to do the same when the apple pie dessert pizza came out. The salad bar was well stocked with all the toppings and the lettuce was fresh and crisp. We will be back to try more things on their menu in the near future! Thank you for the great experience

We are so very impressed by the pride of ownership and exceptional operation skills evident when we’ve eaten here. Great atmosphere and solid pizza offerings, the owners clearly take pride in customer experience, cleanliness and food quality, even stopped by the tables to visit with random diners like us. We’ve visited at both lunch and dinner hours and loved it. Lunch buffets are really hard to pull off well for any restaurant and Gambino’s Checotah makes it look easy!! Hot, fresh pizzas, cheese sticks and salad were spot on and resupplied constantly.

Such a wonderful lunch experience! Our group came in after a Color Guard competition. Food was fresh and hot, the girl was so friendly, and even asked for recommendations for the buffet. If we lived here, we'd be here every week. Thanks for a great experience.

Gambino's Pizza in Checotah, Oklahoma, is an unassuming spot on a quiet street. For years, it has been a fixture in this town, with its striped awnings and glowing sign lighting up the night. It's a place that holds memories an comfort. A reminder that in small towns like Checotah, some things stay steady even as the world outside keeps changing.
