Polito's Pizza

Upon entry of this place it looks cozy but then you start noticing how dark and cool it is in there.. they'll ask you to order your food and as you pick it, the pizza looks like it's probably been sitting there a long time but they'll just pop it right in the oven and heat it right back up for you. Especially if you get a combo and you get garlic knots and you asked to get ranch they'll be sure to give you marinara.. also the young 20-year-olds in there. I'm just saying dude you're a Pizza person; so definitely probably won't ever eat another Plato's pizza again...

Hands down the best pizza joint in the area. The slices are huge and affordable, with both traditional and creative flavor palates. The staff is great, and the owner really cares for his crew, his customers, and his community. This is a must stop for visitors to the area, and a must stay for those who call Wausau home.

Pizza is awesome. 3 kids wanted pizza so we stopped. They had to make a pepperoni pizza and said it would be 8 minutes we agreed to wait. Pizza came out and was put on the counter. 15 minutes later still sitting there while we stared at the employees waiting. Gave up and left.

Update: After posting my initial review I connected with the owner/manager. The problems I experienced could best be attributed to a young misguided staff. He thanked me for the information and assured me this wasn't their business ethos and told me customers can order a pizza right up to closing time. I appreciated his concern and decided to give them a second chance. I visited with my family in Jan '26 and found the pizza much better than average. The staff is still not going to win any awards but was acceptable. This isn't the same experience you're going to have at an Italian restaurant but, they are not pretending to be an Italian restaurant. The place was clean enough and accommodating but not quite cozy. If you are just looking for a quick slice and a drink, you won't find better. I

The pizza it’s great . Customer service needs to be improved. Honest communication with your customers it’s key Ordered my pizza got told 15 min I got there after 20 min pizza wasn’t ready I got told again another 5 min I was sitting there for 10-15 and nothing went for a walk outside for 20 min and finally the pizza was ready and cold when I got home. I think it’s fair to say that this is my first time having this kind of experience here, I’ve never had an issue before Date of order 9/02/25 at 4 pm 🕓
