Definitely an awesome place to come for pizza. We drive quite a ways away every week. There is, however, a recent change that we're not thrilled with. Although it's relativity minor it impacts me. Recently, s change was made to the blue cheese. It's too sweet. The original is amazing. As a diabetic, it causes my blood sugar to spike and it's not nearly as good. Please change back! :)

What happened to the recipe? It’s a very noticeable change. Back then when I was younger, my family and I would always get Panteras. The dough was slightly sweeter and looked like it was given time to rise. The sauce and cheese was slightly tangy, and it was memorable, like the pizza had personality.
Now, the pizza flavor profile made a complete 180, and tastes exactly like Pizza Hut. The crust is the same as Pizza Hut as well, sauce is stale. It changed completely. Such a disappointment because this pizza place seemed so down to earth and family oriented. Now it just blended into every other pizza place.
Such a bummer.

We ate there today got our usual a large Hunk. The sauce tasted very tangy so I asked the waitress she said they done something different with their sauce. So owner of pantera’s please change it back we are in our 50’s and are used to it growing up please don’t change it now. That will force us to drive to Ofallon MO to eat rather than coming 20 min to Edwardsville.

This is my first time eating at Panteras pizza. The pizza was really delicious and I will definitely come back multiple times just to eat here! Drove from Watseka Illinois to come and eat here for my mom’s birthday! This is her favorite pizza ever since it was located in Watseka until they closed! It made my moms day and her younger years, she said pizza still taste the same like it did in the 80s!

Way better than Imos, prices are fair in comparison the atmosphere is dated, but spacious. Also, they are going to start serving beer in the fall. Definitely coming back.

Love the food always have first had it when it was in Fairview Heights I missed that location a lot. If I had anything to complain a little bit about would be the game room most of the games were out of service too many prize games and not enough just old school video games

Sorry to say but I was disappointed. I ordered a large thick crust meat pizza with extra sauce for dine in. Pizza arrival time, atmosphere and service were acceptable.
Crust wasn't as dense and doughy as I have had. Regarding cheese, it had mozzarella and some other orange/yellow cheese mixed in. The cheese seemed somewhat glazed over. There was no extra sauce on the pizza either as ordered. The first 2-3 inches of the triangle had almost zero sauce. The sauce that was at the crust end was watered down, almost soupy. Definitely not the thick, tangy sauce Panteras is famous for.
This pizza did NOT compare to other Panteras in the Saint Louis metropolitan area such as O'Fallon Mo which is an identical throwback.
