Customer Reviews
We try different places all the time. We ordered bread bites n pizza 🍕 Bread bites are good! 5/5 Pepperoni pizza 5/5 A Supreme no sausage 3/5 Bacon cheese burger 2/5 Bacon cheeseburger was a little burnt Supreme was good. Not a huge fan of the crust but was ok.
Friend and I decided to try Leaning Tower of Pizza. We try different eateries atleast twice a month. The waitress was very friendly. Appetizers of bread bites were very, very good tasting and hot. Could probably bring a little bit more marinara for dipping, the pizzas were very tasty. The reason for a four not a five star was because on the front of the menu is someone with a wrong colored university sweatshirt on there might be a good idea to maybe not have a certain college on them and just be all neutral.
This is an AMAZING family restaurant! We loved the atmosphere and the staff. We got to visit with the owner and learned a little bit of the history of the place that was originally started in Des Moines in the 60's. They have homemade onion rings, which were delicious. Their pizzas were really good with all fresh ingredients and homemade Italian sausage and a crust that was perfection. Can't wait to go back to try more of their pizzas and their pastas!!!
Leaning Tower Pizza in Uptown, Ankeny delivers every time. The pizza was loaded with toppings and baked to perfection, and the garlic bread bites were buttery, crispy, and impossible to stop eating—especially with the marinara. It’s always great finding places that care about quality and do it right. Glad we’ve got a spot like this close to home!
We visited The Leaning Tower of Pizza tonight and my daughters and I were impressed with how comfortable and relaxed we were at Leaning Tower. This restaurant has been located in Ankeny since the 1979's and definitely has the nostalgic feels. My daughters ordered mini cheese pizzas from the kids menu, and I ordered the Hot Ham and Cheese sandwich with onion rings. The food tasted great, and the prices were reasonable.
