Customer Reviews
I visited Lanova 01/24/2026 at about 5:30pm and ordered a 10-piece wing and a slice of pizza, totaling $27. Upon receiving my order, I noticed that one wing was misshapen and another was unusually small. As a customer, especially given the current economic climate and rising prices, I expect consistent, premium-quality portions when paying a premium price. When an order is advertised as a 10-piece wing, it’s reasonable to expect 10 properly sized, quality wings. Charging premium prices while serving undersized or deformed wings feels disappointing and not reflective of good value.
Did not receive what I ordered! I ordered a garlic crust, and didn’t get it, I paid extra for double cheese & double pepperoni, look at the picture & tell me which one has double…they look the same, out $8! Also ordered “saucy” wings… nope! Don’t expect to get what you order! Upsetting, won’t be coming back!
I placed an order from La Nova Pizza today for myself and my children. For my kids, I ordered two mini turkey subs without tomatoes, served with fries and a Starry drink. For my meal, I ordered two slices of pizza: one New York pepperoni and one white pizza with onions and banana peppers. When the order arrived, nothing was correct. We did not receive the two Starry drinks, we only received one can of Pepsi. We did not receive the mini subs and Fries instead we received full subs, with no fries and tomatoes which we requested not to have. For my white pizza, it seems that they just went to the salad bar and grabbed raw vegetables and threw it on top of the pizza. Unfortunately it seems like this restaurant has went downhill over the past few years.
I’ve ordered from this location for years and have never had an issue with the quality or service until today. I ordered a small pizza and it arrived essentially thrown together with a chewy, undercooked crust that tasted and looked nothing like what I’ve ever seen from here before. I called just to explain what I received and to figure out what happened, and was put on the phone with a severely annoyed manager. He immediately stated that he couldn’t offer a refund (even though I mentioned multiple times that I didn’t want or need a refund). I just wanted yo let him know what I received and to figure out what went wrong. He said he’d look into it then hung up on me. Again, this is a first for me as far as the quality and service, but I don’t think I can order from here again and I can’t ev
This taste like mamas pizza. Like a little Italian mom made this for me. They use the best ingredients for their crust for their cheeses for their sauces for everything! Eat here!
