First time at Lyle’s, and a great first impression. Went in for lunch on a rainy Sunday so the foot traffic was light. Staff was very polite and attentive. Read some previous reviews and opted to go with the sausage pizza. The reviews were all correct and it was fantastic. A great overall pizza with a full flavor pallet. Look forward to future dining visits to try other offerings.

I’m still daydreaming about the delicious Funghi pizza and the Al Carne 🍕from the perfectly crisp sourdough crust, the ample mozzarella cheese and the unxious roasted mushrooms, the Funghi is what pizza should taste like. The Al Carne was well balanced with the bright tomato sauce playing perfectly against the savory toppings. If you like a little kick, don’t skip the Sausage pizza, complete with banana peppers and a hot honey drizzle made in house. We had a large group but the service was still exceptional; never once did our server get frustrated with the bevy of questions and special requests. The vibes are on point and so are the libations if you’re so inclined. Lyle’s is pizza, can’t wait to go back

Pizza is amazing!!!! Started off the evening with a Cesar salad and meatballs. Than finished the evening with three pizzas and a few cocktails. Everything on the menu is good and worth a try.

I can’t stop coming back. I live out west, and work In midtown. If I can convince family or friends to go out to eat - Lyle’s is where we are choosing! Always clean, always well staffed, the BEST pizza + cocktails and wine! Recently stopped in for Lunch and had Nolan serving us behind the bar. He was so kind and knowledgeable. Can’t wait to come back

After visiting some friends, they highly recommended this place, knowing we love trying new spots. This place was fabulous, and I would definitely suggest giving it a try if you're a fan of artisan-style pizza and cocktails. We started with the whipped feta, and wow, it was delicious—nice and spicy, a perfect way to kick off our lunch. For the main course, we shared a burrata pizza, and our waiter/bartender, Nolan, suggested adding prosciutto, which was a great choice. The pizza was cooked to perfection, and the burrata and prosciutto made an excellent combination. Huge props to Nolan for the fantastic service!

So good as always So good as always I love that food. It never fails to satisfy my cravings and brings me such joy. Each bite is a delightful experience, filled with rich flavors and comforting textures. I can never get enough of it, and I find myself savoring every moment spent enjoying this delicious meal. Whether it’s shared with friends or enjoyed in solitude, it always manages to lift my spirits and make the day feel brighter.

I really wanted to like this more than I did. I have tried to get takeout pizza from here on two separate occasions with similar results so time to share a review We placed a to go order last Saturday and were told 20 minute wait which was totally fine. 45 minutes later and still no pizza. Took 50 minutes instead of the 20 minutes we were quoted. Normally I wouldn't care all that much but they charge extra for take out. That is off putting because this is a pizza place, why on earth should it cost extra for takeout orders? It was a 9 minute drive home and during that time the pizza must have steamed in the box because it was SOGGY. Absolutely limp. I had the same issue last time when I ordered the pepperoni pizza. The crust had a bunch of burnt seasoning on it, I love a good fire charred pizza but the seasoning tasted burnt, not charred or grilled. Very unpleasant taste. Upcharging for takeout when the pizza gets soggy within a 9 minute drive, on an already expensive pizza while also taking over 30 minutes longer to make the pizza from the original quoted wait time... overall disappointed. Someday I may try to eat in person to see if the pizza is any better but this place is unfortunately not at all worth the money for take out.

Love going to Lyle's! Their pesto rolls are my favorite - perfect appetizer or addition to your meal. I've tried a few of their pizzas now and they're all very good, this time I tried the sausage pizza and it stacks up to the rest! We sat out on the patio and it was beautiful - I love how tucked away it is and it's beautifully arranged. We were there for bingo night so it was a little busy but they were on the ball getting our food to us quickly. Bingo was a blast, highly recommend :)

Oh man, I might fall asleep while writing this because I'm so full and satisfied. The olives are always a great choice, but be aware they do have the pits in them. They make their own brine and we had a fresh batch! The pizza was fantastic. We've never had one we don't like and want to continue to try each one. The beer I had went great with the sourdough pizza and my wife ordered the "pizza wine". The Pizza Wine is a rotating red from Italy that the Som chooses to pair specifically with the pizza. The bartenders were both fantastic. Great conversation, great service, great atmosphere, and amazing food.

You will love the food at Lyle's Pizzeria. The sourdough crust is perfect, thick around the edges, thinner in the center and fully sourdough flavored. We ordered delivery of a classic cheese pizza with added mushrooms. We got lots of mushrooms! They actually have a pizza called Funghi made with mushrooms, two cheeses and basil. We might have to try that. We also ordered the chopped salad which had iceberg lettuce, red cabbage, salami, feta, pepperoncini, cherry tomatoes, and cucumber. The oregano dijon dressing with fennel breadcrumb was lovely and parmigiano-reggiano made the presentation. We plan to visit the location in person to experience the cocktails and wine selections. My picture shows the last of the crust, which we always share with our pups.

Lyle's is such a cool, neighborhood spot! Their pizzas are always delicious, and I love that they have a special that changes so you can always try something new! The servers are always really nice and the back patio is super cute and fun to sit at during the summer. You have to try the pesto roll!

Apparently has been a while since we last here. Today after our main trip stop was taken care of, this was near and needed further testing!! Crab Rangoon Pizza was being photographed by another customer and looked like a very good option. And I have not seen prior anywhere. Am excited to try this. I see Herbed Anchovies dressing on a salad, so got a sampling of that. Really good. Pizza and crust are incredible good. But...further testing needed here. This was a great pizza which was not on the published menu yet. I am guessing they have some food pioneers on staff who keep coming up with fabulous ideas, and I was lucky enough today for testing time!!

I've been to Lyle's a few times and have really really enjoyed it both times! We went for a celebratory date night, and this was the perfect spot. It's moody and intimate inside, and I just love it! We started with an espresso martini and a Negroni, both were alright, not our favorites though. We got the pesto roll and a half caesar salad for apps, the pesto roll was not as good as I remember this time. It was a little bit hard and cold (i remember it being super soft and served warm last time, but I could be wrong). The salad was good though! I got the crab rangoon pizza (I think they only have this one during Lent) and it was DELISH! I absolutely loved it. My boyfriend got the sausage pizza and he really enjoyed it, too. Their ranch is also out of this world, so that earns extra points from me. Overall a really solid date night or girls night out spot. It is a bit pricey, but you can taste the quality, so I don't mind spending a bit extra!

Deviled eggs, whipped feta and pizzas are all really good, I like the bar team because they will make craft mocktails to fit your personal taste. And for the good weather, the back patio is open for dining. A delightful evening was had by all.

The good- salads and apps were all fantastic. Well done. The pizza- not sure if I'm a fan of the sourdough mashup pizza. Lots of cornmeal did I say cornmeal on the crust. Anyway topping are nice and fresh but if you love a good healthy dose cornmeal / semolina whatever it is just be advised.

Second trip to Lyle's. If it was closer I'd love to go more often! We love the Pesto mozzarella bread. It's so fresh, warm, insane pesto... it's a must order. I'm also obsessed with the Gelato Sour, such a unique balanced cocktail. We ordered the burrata Margherita pizza which was simple and fresh and ended with an espresso martini.

Our drinks took about 20 minutes to come out but the bartender did come and deliver them himself to apologize because he lost our ticket. Food is the only reason for the 4 start review. Pizza crust was some of the crispiest I've had. The meatballs were tender and the sauce they were in was amazing. The salad was great could have used some crunch. All ingredients tasted fresh and made to order It was a little loud and dark inside but I did like the limited amount of tables in the restaurant. Our waiter did kind of kick us out because there was a reservation after us and they needed the table

Always a favorite! Their service is good and food is worth it. Sad for me but, great for them, it is getting harder to just walk in and get a table or a seat at the bar! I need to remember to continue to make reservations. This trip I had a pesto roll which was 10/10 as always. I also tried the chorizo and potato pizza. The flavors were so good! A bit of spice from the sauce and chorizo and the potato cut it nicely. I do wish it was a bit more "stiff" because it was it was hard to eat this without a fork. But that was my only suggestion!

My husband and I were looking to try out a new pizza place and we drive by here a lot, so we decided to order take out. I instantly gravitated towards the burrata pizza (thanks to other Yelp reviews on this pizza) and my husband got a pepperoni since he's not a huge fan of burrata. We tried to order online, but the burrata pizza wasn't available for online ordering, so we called and they were able to place the order - I'm not sure what the problem was. The pizza was ready exactly on time - they had just placed it in the warmer as I walked in to pick it up. The restaurant was also not super busy for a Saturday night, which was surprising but made our transaction super smooth and easy. The pizza was truly magical (and I don't think I'm the first one to describe it this way). The crust was nicely chewy and slightly charred in places. The tomato sauce and roasted tomatoes gave a nice sweetness, and the burrata was so creamy and indulgent! Truly a top tier pizza. I am looking forward to dining in the next time and trying the gelato sour and the mozzarella pesto roll!

I have been dying to go to Lyle's ever since it opened. I'm a huge fan of Via Farina and Dolomiti, and I have heard this rivaled both of those places. The location is super cute, albeit pretty small. I recommend making a reservation just in case. We started with the pesto roll and the feta dip. These were both INCREDIBLE. The pesto roll is wrapped like a cinnamon roll, but instead of cinnamon sugar inside, it's mozzarella. The pesto on top is plentiful and SO delicious - maybe the best I've ever had! The feta dip was also delicious, especially with the rosemary chili crunch oil on the top. We saved it to dip our crust in per recommendation of our server, which was a great choice. Now for the pizza...I hate to say it, but it was just ok. I had the Bianco, and my husband tried the Lyle's Supreme. Both of these sounded like they would be packed with flavor, but we just weren't getting it. Maybe it was an off day, but I was definitely a little disappointed. I would come back here for the apps, because they were INCREDIBLE, but I'm not sure if this will be a pizza go-to for me.

Another 5 star experience here, from the food, to the service, the conversation and knowledgeable bartender, drinks, and more! This time, we started with the marinated olives again which come paired with sourdough slices. The olives are marinated in oil, garlic, and orange peels---so good! Then we went with the funghi pizza, the mozz made it deliciously salty while the mushrooms made it savory and fresh basil lightened it up. I paired with the pizza wine, the bartender said the sommelier specially chooses wine to pair well with the sourdough in the pizza, and this was a beautiful pairing. My husband got the west o red beer which was a tasty option, too. Their bar is my favorite! I love the 80s vibes and would kill (metaphorically ;-)) to take that canvas above it home for my kitchen. They also have a great option for a pickle beer, pair with the Bloody Mary and you've got a great brunch bev!

Definitely one of the top 5 local pizza shops in Omaha! The atmosphere is so cute and hip. The menu isn't huge, which makes it kind of nice to just be simple with ordering. I've been a few times, but still think the peach pizza from the summer was my favorite! Friendly bartenders and waitstaff

Yummy! The pizza is fabulous! I always say the crust is what makes the difference between pizzas. This is the light, crisp, airy crust with the perfect amount of toppings! Ohh that crust - perfection! We enjoyed a one size fits all Burrata and a Lyle's Supreme - excellent! Note there are lunch specials, which would be a good buy, it includes a salad. We also had the mozzarella and pesto roll, it was almost too beautiful to eat. It is almost like a cinnamon roll but with cheese and pesto, also delicious as recommend per Yelpers. Comfortable setting in an older building that has been upscaled. Beautiful place and friendly workers.

I finally made it to Lyle's pizzeria for dinner recently with my wife, turns out I should have tried this place sooner, it was really good, a solid 4.5 stars IMO. It is located in a very cool older building with a long bar and a lot of character, I think the building used to be a drug store or something, but really unique. The pizzeria is of the thinner neopolitan style that cooks really quickly and comes out hot and fresh, we ordered the pepperoni and it was excellent, plenty for two people. The crust was amazing, light, airy, and tasty, some pizza the crust is an afterthought, not here. We also had an appetizer of braised beef and pork meatballs, these were my favorite part of the meal. The meatballs were so juicy and the sauce was great, highly recommended. Service was friendly and quick, no issues.

Loved this Pizza and Cocktail Bar - the first restaurant we tried in Omaha during our 2 day trip. TBH we came here to try the much hyped Omaha Crab Rangoon Pizza. They have it as a special on some days. Unfortunately they were out by the time we reached but looks like that was a blessing in disguise. Because we loved the Lyle Supreme Pizza we tried instead. We also had the deviled eggs and the Caesar Salad. The salad was decent - didn't taste much like a Caesar salad IMHO but we did enjoy the crunch of the nuts in it. The deviled eggs were fantastic - creamy, flavorful with a touch of smoked paprika and that crunch of garlic in the end - loved it! I also tried the Okatoni Negroni and the G&T. The G&T was too sweet for my taste but the Negroni was solid! The ambience is inviting and the service is fantastic! Shout out to our server, Lou - she was so friendly and helpful throughout! Definitely recommend!

Finally got a chance to try out the pizza at Lyle's...and it was really good! The service was great and the place had a really cool hip vibe. We'll have to come back and try their other signature pizza, but I do recommend the Funghi.

I got delivery and this was the first time I'd tried Lyle's. I'm so glad I decided to give them a shot. The pepperoni was COVERED in crispy pepperoni and super tasty. The margarita had super flavorful sauce. Tons of garlic and more like a rich pasta sauce than your typical pizza sauce. The cheese was covered in a good amount of fresh basil and this one was my fave for sure. I'll have to stop by in person some time to get it fresh but even delivery was still top notch. Forgot to take pics before half was devoured.

Oh, this place is soooo good! I have been meaning to try this place for a while now, and finally did. Let me tell you, it did not disappoint. It's some of the best pizza I have had in a while. I ordered the cheese pizza and added sausage for takeout(basic I know) and it was fantastic. There was great flavor, plenty of cheese/sausage, and the crust was great. They give you more than enough pizza, so you will not leave feeling hungry! I am looking forward to trying more of their pizzas in the near future. Highly recommend giving Lyle's a try!

I love this neighborhood pizza place! It's a cute and cozy place to stop in for a bite to eat, and the staff are always friendly. It's great to sit at the bar and strike up a conversation with the bartender, or they have a few tables for a more cozy dinner with friends and family. The mozzarella and pesto roll is the perfect way to start the meal, and will leave you wishing you could have another one. All of their pizzas are exceptional - my favorite is the pepperoni, which features the most delicious mini-pepperonis you'll ever eat. They also have a great variety of rotating specialty pizzas to choose from, you really can't go wrong!

Very nice little pizzeria. Appetizers were very good and the pizza was very tasty. Bar was a little backed up so there was a little wait but not too bad. I'll go back.

Had a great experience at Lyle's. I had the Tre Carne pizza and thought the dough was solid, it was well cooked and had good amount of toppings. Service was great and I like that they bring a caraffe of water. It was maybe 1/2 full but the energy was lively, sound was high from talking, etc, so if you want a place where you can sit with your thoughts in silence, this may not be the place for you. Some comments: Parking is tough/small. After 5pm you can park in a parking lot right around the corner off 52nd but the signage was a little confusing to me. I was asked if I wanted parmessan and there was a $1 charge for it on the bill. Not a huge deal, but when offered the price wasn't mentioned and I assumed it was complimentary. I think a note of "do you want parmessan, it's $1" would have been nice

I stopped in to give this place a try one night. I had been wanting to but every time i looked at it - I saw the limited menu and wasn't sure if that's was I was looking for. So I was very happy when I decided I was just going to go and enjoy it. Nice ambiance - although a little dark - great for a date night. The waiter I had was fantastic - his name was Simon and while I enjoyed the food - he was such a welcome and kind server that he made the experience all the better.

I love the atmosphere here. Fits right in with the neighborhood. The pizza is very well done. I applaud the crust in particular, because once you nail the crust, as long as you source toppings well, you're in good shape. My only complaint is the price. I would only ever come on Sunday, when the pizza is $5 off. It's $16-$18 per 12 inch pizza? Noli's (an establishment in Omaha) offers a larger 13 inch Margherita pie for $14.

Omg do we love Lyle's. The salad is perfect for cheese lovers and it's such a good starter. It can honestly be shared by 3 people because it's such a large portion! The pizza had such a soft crust the perfect amount of toppings. Beautiful little spot for a date night or get together with friends. Our server was also super attentive & helpful with the menu. I am so happy Lyle's exists!

First visit and we'll back! Friendly staff, quick service and yummy pizza. We had the Bianca and added chicken. Great crust and toppings! The "pizza wine" was a great pairing! We hit happy hour which was a nice surprise! Nice outdoor seating area too! Decor was nice added to charm of a great neighborhood feeling pizzeria! You should give it try!

I recently tried Lyle's, a new-ish pizza place off Leavenworth near Saddle Creek, and I absolutely loved it. When you walk in the door, you're greeted with an old-school soda fountain meets modern restaurant vibe/decor - I thought the decor of the restaurant was spot on. The menu is small but I think that speaks highly of the team here dedicating themselves to doing a few things well. I had the Caesar salad and the Bianco pizza, both of which were absolutely delicious. I will certainly be coming back again soon.

First things first, get a reservation. Just do it. The place is adorable and cute and these people are working their butts off, but there's only a certain capacity they can handle. And trust me, it's worth the additional slight hassle. Everyone from the person who sat us, took our order and the people who brought over the food and drinks were absolutely delightful. I started gelato sour and it was so tasty and unique. You can tell they took their time when creating this recipe. We ordered the Caesar salad and pesto roll to share for the table. The salad was huge and topped with a ton of freshly grated parm, Brussels and hazelnuts which all added some extra flavor to a historically dull (to me) salad. And the pesto roll?? I don't even love pesto but I branched out and I did not regret it. The roll dough was soft and perfectly cooked throughout m. Plus more parmigiano reggiano on top? Amazing. For our main, we shared the tre carne and added hot honey. Everything from the slightly chewy crust, the tangy tomato sauce and perfectly piled topping made for the most delicious combo. I'm not usually a crust person, but there was something to this dough that made me want to finish mine, and ask my husband for his pieces. I'd like to go back and try a few more options. The 2 sharables plus this pizza was just enough food for us to feel full but not overly stuffed. The only thing I regret is not taking pictures during my visit, but it was too good to wait! Dang, I guess I'll have to go back!

Really great sausage pizza and chopped salad for dinner. The pizza has a slightly sweet flavor offset by the banana peppers. And the chopped salad combination with fresh veggies and mountains of cheese is delicious. Do be aware that they only have one size of pizza, and they add a carry out fee of 15% for the kitchen staff.

Yelp
Very cute place (especially since the last time I was there it was a cleaners). But, too expensive for what you get. The pizza has 4 small slices, & a glass of wine is stupid expensive even during "happy hour". We left hungry. Next time will go back to Pitch.

Lyles is my favorite pizza place in Omaha after a year of trying to find good pizza. My favorite pizza is Mellow Mushroom, and Lyles is not nearly as good, in my opinion. But, it's the best out of the many I've tried. Crust: This is the most important aspect for me. I want a substantial crust to hold the toppings without being excessively bread-y (like PH Pan or Chicago style). Also, it should have a nice bread-y, buttery, gooey crust on the rim of the pizza. This is where most fail. Lyles comes closer to succeeding than Pitch or Noli's, but doesn't get it right (IMO) like Mellow Mushroom. Sauce: Really nice tasty sauce. They dont skimp, nor do they put too much. Their sauce is not sweet, which is good. Cheese: IMO, cheese must fully cover the pizza completely inside the rim of the crust. It should be mozzarella, not buffalo. Lyles does a fine job here. They use high quality cheese that tastes great without being excessively oily. Toppings: Lyles has what I like in toppings. They taste good and hit the Mama Bear level of quantity (just right). When I can, I drive to Lincoln for Mellow Mushroom pizza. When I stay in town, I go to Lyles. I find it far superior to both Pitch and Nolis.

Decided to give Lyle's a try on a Sunday. This is a can't miss pizza spot in Omaha. The parking lot is very small as well as the interior. We went on a Sunday afternoon around 4:00 which was a nice slow time to go. We started off with marinated olives and a Caesar salad. The salad was so fresh and delicious! It was Father's Day so they had a cheeseburger pizza on special. We ordered that as well as the fungi. Both pizzas had great flavor and what I enjoyed most was the pizza was not greasy. We ended our meal with a chocolate cake that I was a huge fan of! Finally, Sunday is all day happy hour so of course we used that as an excuse to try more things!

Food was good it was pretty loud for a lounge but overall I enjoyed it, will go back and see if maybe it was just an off night since a party was coming in and pretty much everyone dining was going to have to leave. Small venue.

We finally checked out Lyle's pizzeria, and we were blown away! It was such a cozy and romantic spot. The service was amazing and the food was absolutely incredible. We ordered the hummus plate, and it was absolutely incredible! Highly recommend. After that, we ordered two pizzas: the sausage pizza, and the tre carne. We opted for the nondairy cheese for the tre carne pizza. The bartender was so friendly. Asked for a wine recommendation, and it did not disappoint. TIP: They take reservations, but only on Fridays and Saturdays. Make sure to make a reservation! The dining area is not that big and they were very busy when we showed up! Overall, this was one of my favorite new restaurants in Omaha! Such a great experience!

This is my new favorite pizza place in town. The interior is very cool and the service was excellent.

This is my second time here and I still love this place! Got the charcuterie board this time as an appetizer and it came with brioche, cheese, flavored nuts, cranberry sauce, and a bunch of others. A very flavorful start. For the main course I got the bianco pizza, which comes with Fontina, Fior di latte mozzarella, goat cheese, roasted garlic, basil, and olive oil. Super delicious, especially if you're a fan of goat cheese. If not, you might want to pass on this one. Top choices so far: mozzarella and pesto rolls, tre carne pizza, and gelato sour. Service is always great! Staff is very nice and helpful, and also very attentive. The inside is very cozy too. Parking could be better, but sometimes location is what it is.

It's been a couple months since we've been to Lyle's (I thought a wrote up a review) but we had a great experience there! My one major complaint is the space is small so either call and check how busy they are or call and reserve-- you won't be sorry! The inside is so cute! We absolutely devoured our pizza and salad. We ordered just one pizza and salad and split it between two of us. My husband was obsessed with the chopped salad. I'm not a huge fennel fan so that wasn't my favorite but other than that it was very good! We also ordered a dark chocolate ricotta cookie which was AMAZING.

The pizza is amazing! It is full of flavor, crunchiness and texture. They not only have pizza but we also got the pesto bread with olive oil which was to die for. The drinks are amazing and they have pretty decent variety. The service was good and attentive. The only complaint I have is the parking, it is kinda of small but you can park on the neighborhood and walk to it. Overall I recommend Lyle's to anyone who is looking for great pizza and drinks!

First time trying Lyles, I ordered a pepperoni pizza, full Ceasar salad, and there half chopped salad. Total was $54. Pizza was between personal size and sharing it with 2 people. Ingredients were great on the pizza. One side of my pizza was overdone (burnt pepperoni), and one side was underdone. Taste was 4/5 texture closer to a 3/5. For Omaha, the pizza was really good compared to what's out there. Chopped salad was my favorite item, fresh ingredients, good flavors, half was a good amount to eat solo and enjoy some pizza. Ceasar was alright. We got a full, and it wasn't much bigger than our half chop. Flavors left me wanting more, that anchovie/garlic flavor was missing. I appreciate lyles using real parmesan. It really adds great flavor to all the items. I'll be back to try it again. If they tighten up that pizza and cook it evenly, it could be a 4/5. It's pretty expensive for the amount of food you get but the quality of ingredients is great.
