Stoner's Pizza Joint - Columbia

Had a great time with the crew! You all are fantastic! The place is spotless, and the service is excellent. The cookies are phenomenal, and the wings are incredible—try the Bourbon and Teriyaki flavors! The staff are friendly and the atmosphere is great! The house-made ranch sauce is outstanding, too. Truly top-notch service all around!

I'm not sure what went wrong with my first order; maybe it was the New York-style crust. However, I've tried the hand-tossed option several times since, and it is by far the best pizza in the city. The cookies and cheesecake are fantastic as well. For those who claim that all pizza is good pizza, they clearly haven't experienced this place. While it looks decent, the store-bought, stale crust was a huge letdown. The tomato sauce tasted like it came straight from a can, and there was an overwhelming amount of grease. I can't decide if this or a cheap pizza from Amazon is worse. Considering this was $15 compared to $3 for the Amazon one, I can confidently say this is the worst pizza I've ever had.

I stumbled upon this place by chance when I was looking for a quick lunch, and I'm so glad I did! They offer pizza by the slice, and fortunately, they had some ready, so I didn't have to wait long. The prices were great, the staff was friendly, and the pizza was fantastic. I will definitely be returning!

The best and most affordable pizza in town, along with excellent customer service!

This restaurant is a well-known spot for the working class during the day and transforms into a safe haven for late-night Chicago-style pizza enthusiasts after dark. I fondly remember my last visit downtown, where a legendary figure named Robert would greet you at the door while you mingled with a lively group of musicians from the Columbia area after the bars had closed. I’d choose Stoner's pizza over any pretentious bistro in the less desirable parts of town any day. – G.
