This is such a blast from the past. We went to celebrate a birthday that was coincidentally the same day as the original Conan's Pizza opened in 1976, and so many memories of the 1980s came rushing back just being in this space that looks like it hasn't changed since that era.
The interior is rustic with lots of wood beams and bannisters, with hanging plants that add some life, and so much Conan the Barbarian fantasy art adorning every space, along with other comic book art and similar subjects. There are so many instantly recognizable 1980s elements like the tables with thick clear coat, a couple of elevated dining areas that look down on the booths arranged around the edges, and even mirror walls that make the space look larger. You honestly won't realize all the way things have changed in restaurants until you step back in time here and it all comes flooding back.
We ordered a large pan pizza since that's their specialty and went for one of the designed favorites that had artichoke, tomato, garlic, and spinach, and just added chicken and hamburger for the carnivorous barbarians that we are. We also picked the whole wheat crust which is another retro element that I don't remember seeing elsewhere.
Sadly they messed up and didn't give us pesto sauce instead of the regular tomato sauce, and I'll say the meat was pretty skimpy although delicious. But overall the food tasted great and while the price was steep at about $32, it was worth it for the nostalgia and the portion fed three people fine. Do expect to wait a bit, though - it was over 30 minutes to be delivered to our table. And this was on a Wednesday afternoon with only a couple other tables active.
Of course you can also order your pizza to go too, but you really shouldn't miss out on the amazingly vintage experience complete with loud 1980s music, a handful of old arcade games in front, and tons of personality throughout. It may not be the best pizza ever or the best price, but you can't find an experience like this anywhere else.
