If they could strive to install a fluorescent light panel or lamps, it would help significantly to those eating in lower-level seating.To concede with my review, this respective pizzeria is optimal and has the charm and cultural character of an early 1990s New York pizzeria, but it has several issues that takeaway from the character of the establishment.Kid-friendliness: This respective Pizza Casbah location is adorned with numerous vintage arcade games such as Ms. Pac-Man, Galaga, and Street Fighter II, but besides that, it is not really the most child friendly establishment, as it caters predominantly to university students.

Let's face it....pizza definitely is a preference so what someone likes someone else may not. I was obviously less than thrilled with the pizza I got on Friday night because I did not like the crust or the sauce HOWEVER I ordered a two topping pizza and the toppings were so skimpy it was not worth ordering. I won't go back because I did not like the pizza. The take-out service was good. As a final note, the parking is terrible. They really should offer a service to bring the pizza out to the car. Food for thought.

Thank you guys for making delicious pizza AND putting the customer first when there was a little power glitch. We have been coming here for years and you guys demonstrated why we always come back! (Awesome customer service, of course!)/24We ordered from here tonight and as usual, this place never allows themselves to have customers disappointed! I ordered a 24” and got a 12”. Whoever I spoke with on the phone owned the mistake and refused to have me drive to get my pizza. You are one of the reasons this place keeps their customers. I have been a customer since there was a little room upstairs to eat my pizza in, before renovations. I love this place and the employees are phenomenal. Thank you for being one of my favorite places to get pizza at. ?

I dream about this pizza day and night. Moved out to NC and I’ve searched far and wide to find a pizza place that amounts to pizza casbahI’ve come close but nothing quite like this place. I will be back to foco soon just for this pizza.
We have been eating at Pizza Casbah for over 20 years. New York style pizza is our favorite. I have no experience with pizza actually IN NY, but Pizza Casbah can easily hold their own. The crust is paper thin, crispy, and when the added with their homemade sauce and your favorite toppings, it is the best pizza in NOCO.
Really spectacular pizza. Had Pizza Casbah at an event I attended and loved it so much I ordered at home. I would recommend to everyone who likes pizza.

Pizza Casbah was delicious. The pizza was amazing when you entered the restaurant and might not look the best with a run down bilding but when you meet eye to eye with the pizza they sell, it is amazing! Plus, kids welcome. Pizza Casbah put some old arcade games that are fun, like area 51.
