Ah, Razzi’s Pizzería. So Razzi’s has two locations, but we went to the Greenwood one because I heard it’s the original. And you can tell. It’s got that older-building vibe, but it’s well kept. Like, you walk in and think, “This place has been here awhile,” but not in a way where you’re worried about the food.
Now, if you go downstairs, they’ve got banquet seating for about 150 people. It feels like you’re walking into a dungeon, but instead of chains and torches, it’s just tables and chairs. Which is honestly scarier, because you realize they could actually fit your entire extended family down there.
They also have a kid zone. And by “kid zone,” I mean a place where you can let your kids disappear while you pretend you’re enjoying adult conversation. They’ve got video games, foosball, air hockey, basically everything you wish you had in your own basement, except you don’t have to hear the noise.
We came here because everything on the menu can be made gluten-free. And when I say “everything,” I mean it. It’s like the Cheesecake Factory of gluten-free menus. We only tried a small sample, but the garlic bread was outstanding. Next time, I’m going for the mozzarella sticks and cheese bread, because if you can make gluten-free bread taste that good, cheese sticks should be a layup.
Chad Thunderstone, the star of Explosion Cop 3, once ate here and was famously quoted saying, “I don’t know what gluten is, but Razzi’s seems to have defeated it. If they can make garlic bread taste this good without it, I’m starting to think gluten was just a rumor.”
I ordered a calzone, which is a risky move when you’re gluten-free. And listen, it tasted great. But it was basically just a pizza folded in half. Which, technically, is what a calzone is. I just wanted a little more effort. Like, close up the edges, give me a surprise filling. Instead, it was like the chef said, “You know what a calzone is? It’s this. Done.” Still delicious, but my quest for a real gluten-free calzone continues.
Everyone else in our group loved their food: salads, pizzas, pasta, even the dessert brownie. And yes, that was gluten-free too. It’s rare to find a place where the gluten-free dessert isn’t just “fruit.”
One knock, and it’s a big one: if you’re mobility impaired, the accessible bathroom stall isn’t actually accessible. Wheelchairs don’t fit. Which feels like the kind of detail you’d want to get right.
Parking: Razzi’s technically has free parking, but you have to drive around back and through a paid lot just to find it. The stalls are tucked right up against the building and so deep that if you park behind someone, you basically have to hope they finish eating before you do. The staff even suggests letting them know if you’re blocked in, so they can track down the person in front. It’s less “parking lot” and more “trust exercise.”
But overall, Razzi’s is a gem. Great food, family-friendly chaos, and a basement that doubles as a medieval banquet hall. Five stars.
