Pizza Lobo - Andersonville
7.9
A bar-forward pizza room built for hang time: pitchers, cocktails, and shareable pies that fit a casual, late-ish schedule. Treat it like a social meal—one tavern-style pie for the table, a second only if the room’s still hungry.
Must-Try Dishes:
Tavern-style pepperoni (square cut), Sausage + giardiniera pizza, Cheese pie with chile-honey-style finish
Scores:
Value: 7.6
Service: 7.3
Consistency: 7.8
Food Quality: 7.9
Atmosphere: 8.1
Cultural Relevance: 7.5
What makes it special: Bar energy first, with shareable pies that match the hangout vibe.
Who should go: Groups who want pizza with drinks
When to visit: Evening for the best bar-room rhythm
What to order: Pepperoni tavern pie, sausage + giardiniera, a simple cheese
Insider tip: Order one pie, then decide on round two after the first hits.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking on Clark St and nearby side streets; can be competitive after 6pm on weekends.
Dress code: Casual bar wear — jeans, sneakers, and relaxed night-out fits are all normal.
Noise level: Lively to loud — conversation is easy early, tougher once the bar fills.
Weekend wait: 30–45 min during peak evening hours without a reservation
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or short bar-friendly seating
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — cheese pies and vegetable toppings are easy to mix and match.
Vegan options: Limited — vegan cheese and plant-forward builds are usually available, but confirm when ordering.
Gluten-free options: Limited — gluten-free crust offered, but cross-contact is possible in a shared kitchen.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Better for casual, low-pressure dates than intimate ones — the bar energy keeps things easy but not romantic-quiet.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes, especially if you’re flexible on timing or willing to start at the bar; peak weekend hours may require a short wait.
Is it kid-friendly? Earlier in the day, yes — simple pies work for kids, but evenings skew adult and bar-forward.
Best For
Better for: Groups who want pizza as part of a drinks-first hangout with flexible pacing.
Skip if: You want a quiet meal, precision-driven pizza, or a date-night atmosphere — choose a more food-focused room instead.

8.3
A patio-forward pizza bar that works best for slices, pitchers, and casual hangs rather than a big formal order. The move is a couple of slices (meatball or a white-style option) plus one shared side, and you’ve got an easy group meal that stays under control.
Must-Try Dishes:
Spicy meatball slice, Bianca-style slice, Wings
Scores:
Value: 7.7
Service: 7.6
Consistency: 8
Food Quality: 8.3
Atmosphere: 8.7
Cultural Relevance: 8.1
What makes it special: A slice-driven pizza hangout with strong patio energy and drink-friendly pacing.
Who should go: Groups who want pizza plus drinks
When to visit: Weeknights or earlier weekends for easier seating
What to order: Spicy meatball slice, bianca-style slice, wings
Insider tip: Order in rounds—start with slices, then add only if you’re still hungry.
Logistics & Planning
Parking: Metered street parking on Clark Street and nearby side streets; availability drops quickly on weekend evenings.
Dress code: Casual and patio-friendly — jeans, sneakers, and relaxed weekend wear fit right in.
Noise level: Moderate to loud, especially on the patio — conversation is fine but not intimate-quiet.
Weekend wait: 30–60 minutes during peak patio hours without arriving early
Weekday lunch: Typically no wait or very short
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Yes — multiple cheese-forward and vegetable slice options work well.
Vegan options: Limited — can build a no-cheese veggie slice, but not the focus.
Gluten-free options: Limited — not a dedicated gluten-free program; best for gluten-tolerant diners.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes for a casual first date — the patio, drinks, and slice format keep things low-pressure, but it’s better for relaxed conversation than romance.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Usually yes if you’re flexible — walk-ins work best if you arrive earlier or are willing to start at the bar or patio.
Is it kid-friendly? Generally yes earlier in the day — slices are approachable for kids, but the evening crowd and bar energy skew more adult.
Best For
Better for: Patio hangs, group meetups, and slice-plus-drinks pacing rather than a sit-down pizza dinner.
Skip if: You want a quiet meal, a formal pie-focused experience, or a destination for gluten-free or vegan diners.
