Leña Pizza + Bagels

After years of missing opening days, my brothers and I finally had a chance to try Leña. Since we are only in the area when visiting our parents, the stars just never aligned. We are SO impressed with the quality and taste. The pizzas, bagels AND dessert are all incredible. As someone who travels frequently, this is some of the best pizza I've had. The family's favorite was the Stracciatella special and the Meat Lovers. We did try and enjoy the Prosciutto Arugula, Margherita, and the Mushroom Truffle as well. The Coconut Lime Cheesecake was AMAZING. I'm not a fan of citrus flavors in my cakes and cookies, but WOW. The Nutella Calzone, however, was not very good. It was probably the only thing the family disliked. The same morning, we also dined in for breakfast. Great bagels, but nothing like their pizzas. Bagels are worth a try, but you won't be missing out on much. The pizza? MUST try. We will definitely be back.

The pizza is much better than your typical Mississippi pizza place. The prices are pretty steep. We got 3 pizzas, 3 drinks, some bagels and cream cheese, which put our total at nearly $100. The quality was there but the value was lacking. We have a few other brick over joints we frequent and we don’t spend near this much for great pizza. The owner is super nice but the employee taking orders reminded me of a robot. Zero attempt to smile or make a connection. The waitresses were also very nice. Over all a great spot!

After reading about Leña online, I had to come by and see what all the excitement was about. Now, I can officially say that I understand the buzz surrounding this place!The pizza was fantastic and the staff were attentive and kind. 10/10 experience. Marisol, felicitaciones on all your success! It’s well deserved.

Do not miss out on this one, the food & service are excellent! We drove to Cleveland from Memphis just to eat here, we made it early Saturday in time for bagels, which were better than all the bagels I've had in NYC, truly wonderful. We came back at night for pizza, which was perfection, truly Neapolitan, few places I've had pizza in the south can touch this. I had their veggie special and my partner had pepperoni, we also had a delicious Italian Cab Franc to go with it, their wine list is small but mighty. They happen to have tiramisu on the menu, which we were lucky enough to get before it sold out, and it was amazing. On top of such incredible food, the service was impeccable, everyone was so friendly and super attentive! I will definitely make the drive again, it was absolutely worth it.

Food is finer than a frog hair split 4 ways!!!! Absolutely best pizza I ever had and I have had Chicago and New York pizzas they aren’t near as good.

What a wonderful spot! We drove from the Jackson area, about 2.5 hours, and it was worth it. Despite the line, service was quick. Staff was friendly and you could tell we were in a small town because people were greeting each other by name. The menu is simple and everything we had was perfectly balanced and cooked. The dough is the star from the appetizer to the dessert. The sauce was clearly fresh and made in house. I think the Nutella calzone was my favorite. The warm dough and creamy Nutella contrasted perfectly with the fresh fruit.

Leña Pizza is the #1 pizza in the world to me. I have lived across Ohio, North Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Mississippi, but Leña Pizza will always be my favorite. It’s not just the delicious pizza + bagels but also the people with Marisol, Rory, and the entire incredible staff. Thank you for all you do!

Don't be deterred by the line out the door. The fresh bagels on Saturday mornings.are worth it!! We had breakfast sandwiches and took 1/2 dozen bagels home for later. Oh, and the coffee is excellent.

The pizza and bagels and well anything served here is amazing ! The staff and owner are super pleasant and so efficient. Quaint little seating area that you will enjoy!

Authentic Neapolitan wood fired pizza that is better than in Naples. The real secret is DON'T SKIP DESSERT. They are all amazing, but you will dream about the tiramisu for weeks afterwards. Located within walking distance of the Cotton House and the downtown green strip. It is a great place to grab a bite to eat with friends.

Great food and great service! Came for the bagels on a Saturday morning right when they opened and there was a line waiting at the door. Tried several bagels and both breakfast sandwich options. All was delicious!

Best food around. Hands down. Great food, great owners worth every penny. Support local and get amazing pizza is a win win for everyone. The place is clean and welcoming

This is the perfect cozy date night or casual dinner. The pizza ingredients won't make your stomach hurt unlike other pizza spots! Service was fast and kind. Truly authentic and so yummy! Support small, local businesses.

We stopped in after a baseball game and wow! These pizzas were made fresh right in front of us. The kids loved watching the wood fire pizza oven and were fascinated by the entire process. I can't recommend Leña's enough! Definitely the best pizza in the delta, so don't get "lost" on the way

Great food and atmosphere. Salad and deserts are just as good as the pizza. Check it out in downtown.
