Giorgio’s Pizza

Love the fact they use fresh dough… but the center of my calzone was too soft and not hot.
You can tell it is fresh ingredients just missed the mark on cooking it.
The prices are great 7.00 for calzone combo.
2 slice and drink 6.00…
You can now pay with ATM/​Crédit Card…

It has been since about 1998 when I last frequented this place. My hiatus has been more a function of a long sojourn outside of the state of Texas more so than willful neglect. With a recent move back to my native Lubbock, this was one of the first places I frequented for lunch upon being back in town. From a conversation with a fellow patron in line, it is apparent that the ownership has changed but the essence of the place has not changed a bit, which is a good thing.
I had to have the calzone to get reintroduced to Giorgio’s, and I was thrilled to have the same taste explosion of piping hot pepperoni, Italian Sausage and melted cheese.
Giorgio’s ambiance was always a mix of downtown office workers, blue collar workers, college and high school students. I was thrilled to find even the clientele much the same as I remember it.
Progress and change is certainly good, but it is still good to have tradition and places that seem to stay still in time.

This is the best hole in the wall to grab a good piece of pizza. Nice people, reasonably priced.

Best pizza place in town in my opinion. They are super cheap and always bring out your food quickly even during the lunch rush. The owner was one of the two that started One Guy From Italy, and their pizza and calzones taste pretty similar, but the service and prices are better at Giorgios.

Love it, best Pizza in Texas, almost as good as NY pizza! Too bad it isn’t open in the evening or on weekends. I have to remember to coordinate my down-​town time to include it for lunch.

I’m in love with this place. The pizza is incredible and is incredibly cheap too! I work at an office in downtown and this is the best break from work, and in a convenient location. Just beware of their hours– because they are located in the heart of downtown, their hours follow a typical office’s business hours. So they are not open past 6pm.

As a NY transplant who has found herself in Texas, this is the closest thing to home I’ve found and I’m very glad for it

Calzone special: So good you might as well get 2. Just AMAZING. Best calzone in town.
You will know who the owner is once you see him. Friendly guy with a perfect Italian accent. Pretty fit for a pizza owner. JS
Downside: Cash only and Monday thru Friday only.

This is my other favorite pizza spot in Lubbock. I am definitely going to miss Giorgio’s! Working downtown this was a great place to grab lunch. The lunch specials are great options!

Mama Mia! This is the best calzone I have ever had. Well worth the trip to downtown. The pizza is pretty damn good to, but I cant help but order the calzones everytime i go. This dude is legit!

I love Giorgio’s Pizza and I love Giorgio himself! Nicest guy around. The pizza is great, subs are great. They even have anti-​pasta salads. I go there to eat everytime I make it to the downtown area. They also make huge pizzas which are perfect for parties or the superbowl!

You have to see the owner of this establishment to understand why the calzones are so damn good. He is right off a poster for Italian food or pizza. He looks the part like the freakin’ Lone Ranger.
I found Giorgio’s Pizza by mistake — my mistake being to be at the Lubbock Courthouse for a mediation proceeding.
Wandered over on the suggestion of the mediator and had a superb calzone.
The calzone was partially baked and then finished when ordered. Scrumptious innards included meatballs, pepperoni and meat sauce with a nice warm runny and delicious cheese.
Easily the best calzone I have ever eaten — well a tie with some from Little Italy. But this is Lubbock and who expected this?
While I don’t always like going to Lubbock, when I do, I will eat at Giorgio’s Pizza, my friend. Wow!

Boom. Good calzones and pizza by the slice. Salads: meh. Haven’t tried the sandwiches. I’ve had worse and more expensive pizza in NYC. The owner is legit & I believe Italian.

Hard to pass up if you’re downtown, especially if you’re within walking distance. Street parking can be a bit of a challenge, but you’re rewarded with good pizza and sandwiches.

A little low key, but worth the adventure to find parking. $ 5 gets a calzone (or two slices of pizza) and a drink at lunch. I cannot describe how good this cazone is, it is the perfect combination of awesome and crust served hot and quick.
If you are any place around downtown you shouldn’t miss out. A word of warning, the lines easily reaches the door EVERYDAY at lunch, but be patient because it moves quick. Giorgio’s only takes cash so come prepared. The sandwiches and pasta dishes look amazing, but I cannot give up a calzone to try one.

This is by far the best pizza in Lubbock! I’m surprised no one has reviewed it yet. It is only open for extended lunch hours and only took cash last time I went. Definitely worth a visit.
