36 Best Pizza Restaurants near Waukee

“This is simply the best pizza i have had since i moved from New York. Simply brilliant. Joy gave my wife and me canoli and they were brilliant. Just fantastic.“

“I live about five minutes away from this Casey’s used to go to Kum and Go for the longest time because it was close then this Casey’s was opened. Now it’s the only convenience store I go to. Stephen and Ella up front always leave me with a smile on my face. When I order from the kitchen Jordan and Brayden always have my pizza ready in a timely matter. For a convenience store the customer service & food are phenomenal thank you Casey’s!!“

“Quick and fast!! There is definitely nothing healthy about the food, but it fits the bill when you feel like you don't care about getting fat. Anyways, I did a pick-up and I could not believe that there was no air-conditioning so my heart goes out to all the workers there!!!“

“Unbelievable service and food! I came here for the first time on 01/16/26, and was greeted right away by Ashanti, and ordered a beer while waiting for my pizza to get done (I ordered right when I entered the restaurant, FYI). It was a very pleasant atmosphere, and some of the best service I have ever experienced in a pizza place (or any restaurant for that matter). Ashanti was fabulous and attentive (since I ordered a few beers while waiting). She also made sure that my pizza was done to my liking before I paid. The cook, Eunice, also came out and wondered how I liked the food. When tasting, it was out of this world. I would say that its the best pizza in central Iowa (seriously!). Because of the service from Eunice and Ashanti, I promise to return to this location very soon! I will also spread the word with my other Italian friends about this hidden treasure in Waukee! Thank you Scornovacca's, Ashanti and Eunice! What an experience. :)“

“They've really tried to change in the last 5 years or so. They offer daily special meals like steak night (mondays) and taco night (tuesdays). The steaks are legit some of the best I've ever had. Served with very well seasoned grilled onions and mushrooms.

Always great service. Small hometown feel. Love it!

They could improve the beer and liquor offerings. Very limited and no taps.“

“Pizza Ranch is an institution. Plenty of food, tasty options, make sure to special request whatever it is that you're in the mood for. I wouldn't ever come for food other than the buffet, but the buffet is a great occasional treat. And the staff is always friendly and helpful.“

“This is just a pickup and delivery site. I ordered My Hut Box deal which was an entree with a side and chose the two topping personal pan with boneless chicken wings for $6.99. it was a super deal! It was hot and fresh and ready when I arrived a couple minutes early. They have a closed warming station that kept it piping hot.“

“Absolutely love the pizza I got. Have not tried banana cake , but you all are batting a 1000 so far. First time having your pizza. Will be having it again.“

“Came in on a Saturday for a softball break. They only had ONE worker named Devina. Well she ended up being AWESOME. She tended our table of 12 and worked her butt. Luckily she had some kind gentlemen customers that jumped behind the bar and helped her out. She made us some of the best bar pizza I’ve ever had. Was a very pleasant surprised. I would highly recommend getting her some help before you lose her!!!“

“The owner is so kind. I ordered via Door Dash delivery & she called me to let me know that nobody picked up my order. When I went & picked it up she was even kind enough to cancel my DD so that I wouldn't get double charged. My pizza was very delicious“

“Excellent pizza. We really enjoyed it. :-)“

“Stopped in tonight for salad and pizza. Never disappointed in this place. I have to take a minute to rave about the margarita pizza. It is one of the best i have had in Iowa. The strong basil flavor paired with a fresh tomato flavored sauce……plus that crust has depth in flavor making it a great vehicle for all the topping. The Ivy pizza was delicious as well but definitely don’t miss out on trying the margarita.

I’ll also add the service is always top notch. I don’t think i have had a bad experience since i been coming here.“

“On December 20th, 2025, at 6:58pm, I ordered a large hawiaan pizza and two orders of breadsticks for delivery. I was told 1 to 1 and a half hours at 1 hour 50 minutes I called to find out where our food was. I was told that they tried to deliver our food but were unable to deliver our order but they could not do so. I then asked why it was unable to be delivered and "the manager" stated that they tried to call me, no one ever did call me and I can prove it. The "manager" could not provide a reason the order was undeliverable. I then told them that my husband would be coming to pick it up and that they needed to make it right by refunding part of our order NOT all just part of it for the inconvience (not being nasty at all). The "manager" stated "I am canceling your order. Go somewhere else." When asked why he said "You are being rude." I told him he had poor customer service skills and hung up. My husband and I ended up going to the Altoona Northern lights and they went above and beyond for us. I will always go to the Altoona store over Hubbell. I highly recommend that you do not go to this store unless you want to be treated like crap.“

“Elegant design, wonderful wood-fired pizza, great service, who could ask for more?“

“We are fully staff. Stop by for a fast and friendly service. See you soon. Thank you Rios General Manager“

“My husband and I are forever fans now of this pizza. This was our first time eating there and the pizza was so delicious. The staff was wonderful. I had to call them and let them know that their pizza was the best we have had in years. I highly recommend it.“

“Good fast service on 11-5-23. Great food. Molly was very friendly and polite ,also attractive. Will definitely be back“

“Great pizza and friendly staff!“

“best pizza since I was a kid. sauce is different wish it was the same“

“Food was great and the staff were very polite. The place was busy and it seemed like they needed to have one more person working at that time. The Parmesan cheese was empty and the staff didn't have time to refill it. I don't know if they were busier than usual because it was Valentine's Day or if someone called in sick, but the people who were working were busting their butts! We were really glad to find a Godfather's Pizza relatively close since the one in our neighborhood closed a few years back. We will definitely go again.“

“Papa Murphy's has always been one of the best pizza chains there is, and there's nothing more convenient than picking up a pizza after work to throw in the oven while I shower, all ready and hot when I'm refreshed and clean. The taste is unmatched as well, and in a class of its own for chain pizza. The stores are never super pretty, but that isn't the point. The point is the pizza, and it is wonderful. I would happily recommend Pappa Murphy's!

Parking: The strip mall parking lot is very small and shared with other businesses. I would not attempt to visit the store during super busy hours, but otherwise it works.“

“Amazing Happy Hour today for my Nephew's Birthday! Incredible food all on the $5 menu!! Can't rave enough about the food and service!! We will definitely be back!“

“I grew up eating The Other Place Pizza at one of the older locations, in Evansdale. I think OP Pizza is the very top of the line of Pizzas, and consider it the gold standard for how a pizza should be. Sure, I like other pies, but OP can’t be beat. Often though, lately, with my high standard, naturally I am disappointed at different Other Place locations if they don’t get it quite right. A little undercooked or over, not enough sauce, served a little too cold, crust not as thick…. Been a while since I’ve had the perfect OP Pizza. Well, today at lunch we went to the Clive location for the first time and ordered at 14” with pepperoni, Canadian bacon, black olives and mushrooms… and it was absolutely PERFECT! They knocked it out of the park! Crust perfect, sauce amount perfect, cooked to perfection, of course the toppings are always top notch. You know it’s good when you’re full and you just want to keep eating. Great job ladies and gentlemen at the Clive location. You made this 40 year old OP Pizza lover very happy today. Lord Bless.“

“Tony and the staff are top notch, they are friendly and provide great customer service. I have a child with dairy allergies, and they are very careful to ensure there’s no cross contamination during the process, they change their gloves, etc…it’s a pleasure coming here!“

“I didn't catch his name, but the employee who was working the overnight late shift at this location between 8/2-8/3 deserves recognition for excellent customer service. He went above & beyond to accommodate us & was very friendly! Give that man a raise!“

“Pleasant, quiet environment, with prompt, friendly service
Outstanding pizza, crust is perfectly crisp. Toppings & cheese are deliciously abundant. The Artichoke Spinach Dip
Is fantastic. This is always a great place for a delicious meal.“

“DEAR PAPA , Please stop putting ranch cups in your HOT pizza boxes on deliveries . Nobody likes warm spoiled at this point spicy ranch 🥹🥵🌶️ Ps: please read - BEST REFRIGERATED. Thank you kindly.“

“Wish I remembered the guys name that took our orders because he was Awesome 😎 When you ask for extra ranch and they know the love for ranch 😆 Our food got here fast and it was hot and delicious 😋 🤤 Ordered the Chicken bacon parmesan melts“

“One of the only spots all of kids and all of the adults in our family agree on. It’s kid friendly, tons of menu options, food is consistently great, service is friendly.“

“Excellent customer service and pizza. Night and day compared to the other pizza places in the area. Thank you!“

“our crew constantly washes hands and changes out cutting blades and tongs and ensuring cleaning is followed as customer safety is absolutely paramount to all of us involved in making sure everyone received quality checked health safe food that's delicious. I love my job our crew and Domino's as a whole who ensures great tasting food is not only safe but their employees thoroughly took care of on a personal level!“

“My second time here - great ambiance, service, good, & drinks. I’ve purchased items at the connected market each time. Very handy.“

“Our pizza came in under 30 minutes on Christmas! So happy these guys were open & the pizza was delicious 🤤“

“Yummy Hawaiian pizza style I’ll buy more soon“

“Ordered a couple pizzas last night and the only sauce on my large pepperoni was a ring around the crust, typically the pizza is really good. We still ate it cause we were hungry and paid for it, but this is a bummer. Employees were super nice and friendly though.“

“Yum! Everything is amazing!“
