Having worked in the pizza business for several years I know a good pizza! This place has a excellent style of pizza. A great brick oven style thin but crispy crust. Also have a great selection of appetizers. The garlic cheese bread is the best! Everyone must try a order of them with your next visit!

Its fairly good pizza. But I am guessing there is no other pizza for many miles - they don't seem to care to be great at what they do as it makes no difference. They will get more business than they can handle. Phone can be busy for 30+ minutes. When you get someone, they often could care less. I just got put on hold 5 times and then hung up. Every time they at least asked me if I wanted carry out or delivery and then put me on hold. When I did get through I answered that we wanted carry out 3 times in less than 30 seconds. This is my 4th time in this area in 5 years and probably the 10th time I have got or tried to get this pizza. Places that get good word of mouth in a tourist area can do whatever they want and it will never hurt them. This is a prime example.

Pleasant atmosphere with chalk boards! Near the beach. Seems great for groups. And, there's a bar. A vast number of selections on their menu, too. We ordered the Vegetarian Pizza (w/ spinach, tomatoes, onions, black olives, jalapeños [the latter in place of mushrooms] & lots of mozzarella cheese) -- this was A-OK. The Fettucini Alfredo (w/ no chicken / shrimp) was creamy (!) - though it could've used flavor. Their garlic bread = yum! Three stars for the food + very friendly service - the latter a major plus!

We went to this pizza joint on Thursday for lunch. We just moved into this area not too long ago so did not know what to expect. It was a cute establishment. They offer lunch buffet (11:30 to 1:30, Mon thru Thu) for 7.99 per person. At first the selection seemed small but the kitchen kept bringing different kind of pizza to replace. We loved the thin crust pizzas. The service was a tad bit slow but they seem all very polite and nice. We would like to come to try some interesting looking dishes on their regular menu sooner than later.

Terrible Pizza. We had a 14" pizza delivered to our condo in OBA. We ordered it with pepperoni and green pepper, although there were hardly any peppers. What a disappointment. The pizza was undercooked and very doughy. The top of the pizza was a layer of grease and the cardboard box was soaked with grease. Did I mention the cheese? It is the fake stuff that chews like a big hunk of bubble gum! The pizza was fairly expensive too - we paid $25 for a 2 topping 14" pizza delivered with tip - and it was one of the worst restaurant pizzas we have ever had. Instead of writing a bad review, we thought to be fair we would call Lillian's and tell them. Well, their service is as bad as their pizza! They told us thank you for letting them know and made no offer to correct or make it right. Unbelievable! Pretty bad when Papa Johns and other pizza chains are better than an Italian restaurant.

Great pizza. Had thin and pan crust. Thin was crispy. Pan was about the similar thickness of a dominos. Toppings were chunky like a Papa Johns. Taste was way better than any chain restaurant though. Many specialty pizza options. Fair price. Only 4 starts because I was sitting without any water on a couple of occasions. Besides the occasional slow service the place was awesome.

Better than your average delivery chain pizza. Wings were good. Salad was fresh as well.

Consistently good pizza and calzone. Haven't had a bad item yet, but the shrimp pesto calzone I had tonight is something I'll order again. Someone else in my group had the muffuletta - a half would be a challenge for most folks. A whole would feed multiple people. Looked tasty. I wasn't offered a bite. :) We have a place nearby - thankful to have a spot to eat good food that won't go out of business between visits!

Really Good pies. Quality(and generous) toppings. Regular crust is chewy and tasty. Did not try the pan crust. Still pretty good the next day as well.

Great pizza, very bad service. Our waiter was MIA for 20-30 min at a time. When he could be found, things were usually forgotten or slow to arrive to the table. Not sure if I would return or recommend this place to friends. Maybe just order the pizza to go.

Mitch L.
Really fantastic pizza. They do not skimp on the toppings at all and their sauce is really tasty. The garlic cheese bread is super good. But the best thing I had there was the veggie patch pizza. It is a great twist on the regular veggie pizza of most places by giving you some toppings that most do not include.

Kristie W.
Unique pizza place. Great for a quick, cheap pickup and amazingly, still good the next day. We got the spicy crab which was good but didn't need the black beans taking the kick out of the spicy. Kids got a pan cheese and that was also tasty. Great pizza choice.

Elizabeth E.
Pretty average pizza. We ordered the spinach dip as an appetizer and it was barely warm. Doesn't look anything like the picture as it came in a Styrofoam cup. We also ordered the Big Dave's pizza which was nothing special. Their crust is boring and has no flavor. The meats were good though. We would not return.

Based on the reviews --I assumed this was the best chance for good pizza. They have plenty of room for big families or groups to be inside or outside. The wait staff seems to be alright (the people behind us seemed to be waited on by their waiter 2 times for every 1 time our waitress remembered us). The pizza was ok. We had a 16" pan pizza with a ton of meat on it. It was really salty when we had the leftovers. There are definitely better pizza places if you're willing to drive 5-10 minutes away from the beach. Mellow mushroom had better pizza in my opinion and there's a really good FOUNARIS BROTHERS GREEK.

Pan pizza was very fresh and good quality. Italian sausage was "real" and not some pre-packaged little balls of mystery meat. Good amount of cheese- not too much--and crust was thick enough but not doughy. Sauce is simple and had good tomato flavor. Very good overall. Avoid the cheese stuffed breadsticks, as they appear to be a frozen variety. They lack flavor of any type and look like they came from a grade school cafeteria. Reasonable prices considering the location.

Jay C.
Great awesome service and it's more than just a pizza place! Literally has one of the greatest tastes one can indulge on the beach!!!! Good price, you can take out after ordering in the phone ... From salads, grilled chicken and shrimp, fettucini Alfredo was awesome!! Have ate here 3 times now within a span of 2 yrs and it's a must for a quick drive by and pick up or eat at the restaurant itself which has ample space for the entire family!!! Kid friendly and great service

Over forty-five minutes to get pizza. We had a large party including hungry children. When it finally arrived the pizza was so-so in taste. Definitely not worth the wait. No plans on going back to this restaurant. Very disappointing.

Went there once and dined in and have not been back since. The atmosphere was very blah and not very appetizing. Large basic open room filled with tables and chairs. Food was good but nothing special for all the hype of the Lillian's name. Service was good but given I wanted a great pizza it really did not matter. It wasn't the server's fault Again food was good, not bad, but nothing special. When I go out, I am looking for great food and something special not average

Stopped in for lunch on a Saturday (no buffet). Grown ups had the Hot Hawaiian pizza, kiddos had pepperoni pizza and spaghetti. The HH was excellent! No complaints from the kids, either. Our server (Sarah) was friendly and attentive. The bathrooms were clean, too. Overall, this was a fantastic choice.

We ordered two pizzas to have delivered to the condo we were staying at that's about 1 mile from Lillian's. I order a thin crust cheese pizza (10") and a pan crust Hot Hawaiian pizza (10"). I didn't get a chance to try the cheese pizza because I was so busy eating my Hawaiian pizza, but my wife really liked it and gives it two thumbs up. The Hawaiian was amazing. It has a BBQ sauce for the sauce along with, grilled chicken, sausage, jalapeños, pineapples, and mozzarella. It was so good! I loved it. Now for the bad news. Remember how I mentioned I was about a mile from Lillian's? Well, it took an hour and forty five minutes to get our pizza to us. I actually called to cancel the order when they told me it was on its way. A couple minutes later it was there. So if you want amazing pizza but don't mind a wait then give them a try!

Ed W.
I give Lillian's four stars for two simple reasons. First, it is what it is. It's a pizza place at my home away from home. There is not a trip to the beach I take that does not involve a night of Lillian's. Usually night one or night last, it is a tried and true staple of my beach dining fare. Yes, the old place pre-Ivan was a million times cooler, but I will not stop supporting the place because they moved across the street into a suburban-styled shop. The pizza is just what I need for my family of four at the beach. It's hot, freshly made, and delicious. Second, how cool is it to grab a pizza to go; take said pizza to the beach; and eat said pizza while surf fishing for pompano and blue fish? OK, for me, it's really, really cool. Four stars!
(4)
Pam J.
We ate Lillian's Pizza twice and both times the pan pizzas were delicious. This is pizza made the way pizza was always meant to be. I also had the salad with olives and the garlic cheesy bread and they were also very good. I highly recommend this place and will definitely eat there again.

Paul M.
Went for their buffet pizza was good as usual however I asked for a special pizza a pepperoni mushroom meatball my server took the order to the kitchen after about 20 minutes I asked about my pizza and was told it was not going to happen this is the second time this is happened to us after the first time we had a conversation with the manager where we were told that they would make a pizza for us that is not on the bar the food at Lillian's is outstanding the customer service is not so after they offered to give us another gift card while talking on the phone with the manager she agreed that customer service was lacking we really love this pizzeria we hope the customer service gets better so for reasons of customer service we're rating: with a 3 star

Lillian's is pretty good pizza for this part of the country. I only give it three stars because I've lived in Chicago and nothing compares. If it weren't for that I would upgrade Lillian's to four stars. It's good pizza, no doubt about that.
(3)
B H.
Went because of all of the glowing reviews and a rec from a local. Not even close to good. Have had pizza around the country, including Chicago's Uno's. Perhaps the good reviews are due to pan style and not thin crust. We did order one pan style but the server told us there was a mix up and asked were we ok w thin style. Oy! Our two thin pizza crusts were cracker like & tasted like a boxed mix. Tomato sauce on pizzas also bad but toppings were fine. We ordered a pepperoni/spinach & a perdido pass. Husband hated smoked flavor of perdido pass. Great Caesar Salad w exceptional homemade dressing, but croutons had overpowering Italian seasoning flavor. The place itself is roomy, with a fun ambience & nice servers. We left wondering if we got the back up chef? It was 4 pm. The meal was edible but almost bad.

Lacy W.
Ordered from here our first night at the beach. We ordered 2 large pizzas a small pizza & a Calzone. Our order got to the condo really fast! The chicken ranch pizza was AMAZING! It was everyone's favorite. The Italian pizza & chicken pesto calzone were great too. We did also get a small pizza with crab on it. (Can't remember what it was called.) The crab had a lot of shell in it though. I overlooked that & gave it 5 stars anyway cause the service was so fast & everything else was so good. This will be a regular for when we come to the beach!

When it comes to pizza you can't beat Lillian's in Perdido Key. I love the place its definitely a family oriented restaurant with a little something for everyone. There is a bar and flat screen TVs in every corner for the sports minded to black board walls for the kids. You choice of seating an be either indoors or out. The menu is extensive , you should be able to find a combination to meet you needs. Pizza dominates this menu but you can find a few pasta dishes hear and there, but the pie is the king. We ordered a 16 inch cheese pizza. I have to say they almost had it perfect if it wasn't for the tin crust. The cheese and sauce was good, almost NYC like but the crust needed to bring it home and didn't. The crust had the consistency of a cracker and not that chewy doughy texture you would expect but we loved it. However the Pan Pizza was great and with fresh ingredients. This is there specialty and they do it well. I had the Italian Supreme and it' s similar to Unos for you East coast folks but much fresher flavor and they have the crust down. I almost ate the whole 10 inch pie, it was da bomb diggity. Definitely will be go to spot for me.

Family run small business. You will likely see/speak with Lillian when you go in here. Not sure what it is, but this has always been one of my favorite pizza joints anywhere, going back to the days when she was in a smaller building down the road. I grade the pies "TOP NOTCH." My credentials are my fat ass! :)

Stuart K.
We came in at 7 pm on a Saturday and left at 8:15 pm without ever receiving our food. Bar took 20 minutes to open a beer and a bring it out. I am usually forgiving of this kind of thing, but our kids food came out and after 20 more minutes our food never showed. Manager apologized and promised to meet us at the door with our order, we paid and she still failed to meet this promise. Poor management. What a disappointment.
(1)
Angie C.
The server was friendly. And the crust was nice. But anything above the crust was mediocre at best. The cheese had the taste and feel of the cheap pizza cheese that is 25% fake cheese. I would rather less cheese but it all be real. The pesto sauce on one of our pizzas was nasty. Avoid that. The marinara sauce was OK. The pepperoni and sausage were mediocre. And they sadly put the pizza toppings (except pepperoni) under the cheese which is a hallmark of mediocre pizza places. Oh and the spinach artichoke dip was edible but not particularly good, lacking in overall flavor. And it was a small amount of dip relative to chips. Chips were cold. You have ovens. Maybe just a light warming up before serving? If you are really hungry, then it will probably taste better than I'm describing. If you are a pizza snob, then you won't be happy.

Jim P.
I've never been disappointed (like other reviewers) in my decade-plus of going here. Adequate pizza for Gulf Coast, but quick service for crowds. Loved previous cozy location on beach, but new spot off highway now has plenty of parking. Longtime owner (and namesake) recently passed away. Hope family keeps quality and service going.

Maybe I'm a bit spoiled coming from the "Tri-State Area" (NY, NJ, CT) but how do you NOT sell pizza by the slice!? Was in a rush, didn't have time to wait for a small pizza, walked out.

David L.
The pizza was good but the wait was ridiculous. We went on Friday night and ordered a couple salads, couple of pizzas, and a calzone. After waiting about 70 minutes from time of ordering, I got the waiters attention and he basically said this was normal for July and August and that speed of service was better in the off season. The strange thing is we were sitting next to the kitchen and nothing was really coming out for awhile to any of the tables so maybe something had gone wrong but why lie about it?

Gene C.
I've not had better pizza in NYC or Chi-town. Get the Big Dave's Meat on thin crust. Add mushrooms. Sweet lord! This is a great place to stop when you're tired of all the great local seafood. Sit at the bar, take a table, get carry out, or delivery. Lots of options. Love it.

Great Food - Fun atmosphere - The pizza choices are vast - everything we tried was great from Nacho's, potato skins, Pizza on thin crust--All Tasted so fresh...The staff was very friendly and the live music very pleasant. Eat out on the deck... enjoy the pics I posted...I would have posted the food pics too - but we we all dived right in....near Orange Beach - FL-BAMA.

Really tasty pizza at a pretty good price. The kids had great spaghetti and meatballs and we all really enjoyed the enormous Caesar salads. I heartily recommend the Supreme Hawaiian. Inside looks pretty old and cheap, but the food is worth it and it seems to be a great place for families.

Staying in Orange Beach for vacation and got on the elevator with the delivery guy. It smelled so incredibly good we just had to have it. So we ordered it for dinner. They deliver everything on the menu and considering how far away we were it's impressive that they deliver at all. The pizza is thin and crispy, just they way we like it. The pepperoni was thick and plentiful, sometimes two or three thick in one spote, not stingy with the meat at all. Nachos were enough to feed the whole family. We also drove down there for lunch a couple days later and had the buffet. It was very good as well. Same pizza of course so we were very pleased. It's not the cheapest place but the food is very good and the servings are large. We had leftovers from our delivered dinner that came in handy the next day after being at the beach.

We ordered a pizza for delivery, we got pan crust with pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushroom, green olives, and peppers. The pizza was good the cheese was great but it was pretty typical when it comes to pizza nothing special. I would like to try this place again and try one of their special pizzas which may be more impressive. This pizza was better than your normal delivery pizzas and a good option if you want pizza. They also have a rather large menu of pasta options and sandwiches. All items on their menu are available for delivery which is a good option if you have been on the beach all day!

You know the pizza was terrible when you walk out, turn to each other and say, "Ive had better pizza from Dominoes'" The crust was like a cracker, dry and tasteless. Some of the slices of our large sausage pizza had one tiny piece of sausage. The sauce was blah with no spices. Not inexpensive either.

This may have become our traditional "first night here" pizza! We ordered a couple thin-crust pizzas last night and was very impressed. The pepperoni had a nice kick that you won't find at many places. The veggie toppings were all fresh and thinly sliced so they didn't overwhelm the pizza. They delivered right to our condo here in Orange Beach and the delivery man was very friendly and represented himself well.

We had the buffet which was $7.99 I believe. Everything was super fresh. They had multiple types of pizzas that were replenished frequently. Thin crust and hand tossed/ pan pizza. In addition to pizza they also brought out their calzones which had super thin, crispy crusts. And two different types of pasta were included- spaghetti and chicken Alfredo. The salad bar had beautiful crisp greens, carrots, tomatoes, onions, green peppers, 2 types of cheese and 3 dressings. Everything was delicious. Nothing disappointed. Great service. They refilled drinks quickly and let us know when new things were up at the buffet. Wish we had one in Charleston, SC.

As far a pizza goes, it's good. Better than any chain pizza. But for those that are use to Mazzio's, Pizza Hut or Dominos you will be blown away. Tonights take... XL Supreme pan crust XL Cheese thin crust XL Pepperoni pan crust $51.00 It's a hit with the kids and right up the street from our condo. We have been getting take out for the last 4 years are so and will continue. I have recommended pizza from here to all my friends and haven't heard a complaint yet. I have never eaten at the restaurant but I have waited at the bar for food. BTW Lillian is usually at the take out counter working the cash register. Good stuff!

I always dislike being the ONE person to give a bad review. But, it must be done. I came here with a large group, and they were simply not prepared. Not a single drink refill, a 20 minute wait for drinks, and very few options on their pizza buffet for the price. A very typical tourist restaurant if I was to describe it. At the end of our meal, we waited, and waited, and waited for the . When we finally did receive the cheque, no one picked up our credit card to process it, and no one was holding down the fort at the cash register. Simply unorganized and unprepared for a large group.

Pizza gets a 5 star. The service not so much. Very inattentive and forgetful waitress and no one manning the souvenir counter.

We were on our way into orange beach from New Orleans. The kids were cranky and hungry from being on a road trip and it was almost 8pm. We saw the previous reviews on yelp and decided to call to check the distance from the caribe resort. They were open and only 10 minutes down the road. We actually placed an order for our pizza by phone so that it would be closer to ready when we got there to eat. It worked perfectly. Pizza was ready 10 min after we walked in. The place is huge and staff was friendly. We got a giant traditional (pep and sausage pizza), cheeze bread, bread sticks and 6 drinks. Our check was only 45 dollars and we fed 4 adults and two kids...with 2 slices ofpizza to bring home! It was realllly good! Great choice. I would recommend to all, especially families! Oh, and we also found out that they deliver all the way to the caribe in orange beach!

The pizza at Lillian's gets 5 stars, however, the management is lacking. I have been using Yelp for years and never left a review, but the lack of customer service is what inspired this review. We are in Orange Beach for our yearly vacation and it is customary that we eat at Lillian's. When we arrived, we were told we had to wait, which was no problem. After waiting for 30 minutes, we were seated. Our server then informed us that they only had 10" or 12" pan crust pizza. Our large party had planned on ordering 3 18" pizza's. Because of the size of our party, we were forced to order 5 12" pizzas. Because this increased the price of our bill, we asked if there was anything they could do to offset that. Our server, Will was very helpful, but let us know there was nothing he could do. We asked to speak to the manager, and she came to our table. She said that if it were their fault, she would be glad to take care if it, but it was not their fault. We attempted to have a discussion but it became apparent we were not going to make any progress and it was just making us angry. She continued to say that it was not their fault. Had she just apologized, it would have been fine, but her attitude was very upsetting. We have now been here an hour and a half and are still waiting for our food. As much as I love the pizza here, I will think long and hard before coming back. Update-After waiting about 10 more minutes, our order came out. 3 of the pizzas were thin crust. Because it was "their fault" this time, she took care of the 3 thin crust pizzas. The pizzas were all very good, and the customer service improved. It did take a while, but it was packed and my pizza was worth it.

This restaurant deserves a higher rating but I cannot give it do them due to the service. We ate at this location on the first day of summer and we knew service would be slower due to the Gulf Oil Crisis. We were expecting slower service due to staff reductions. This was not the case. They had plenty of serves when we arrived for lunch. Our hostess greeted us kindly. However, then is got interested. Our server was either clueless or had somewhere to be. She said probably 2 words to us. After placing our drink order, our waitress was seen going out to her car. Then she was seen driving off. She never told us that she was leaving or that someone would be finishing our table. 3 different members of the wait staff walked by us for 10-15 minutes. We were all in need of drink refills or more beer and finally a guy stopped by a our table. He had to be asked if he was going to be our server. All this 'bad' service was forgotten when the pizza delivered. IT was perfectly cooked. The toppings tasted fresh. The toppings were proper proportioned. The temperature was perfect, not steaming burn the roof off of your mouth but not cold either. They only have bottled beer so they owners might want to look into a draft system. They do however have a nice variety of bottled beer.

Love this place! We always go multiple times on our visits to the coast. My husband adores the Spicy Crab pizza. I think the homemade salad dressings are amazing! All the pizzas that we have tried there are just great. I would dare say this is probably the best pizza I've had! We also love the price and the atmosphere. It's always clean and not too loud. We like to sit outside on the deck and eat when it's nice out. And all the servers we've had have been very friendly and prompt. This pizza warms up great the next day for lunch too.

Tried two different pies, two salads and the ravioli on a recent visit. 4 * for Big Dave's Meat Pizza (Pan Crust): combo of canadian bacon, beef, bacon bits, pepperoni, italian sausage and mozzarella. 3.5 * for Chance's Island Delight Pizza (Pan Crust): combo of shrimp, italian sausage, onions, garlic and mozzarella. 3 * for ravioli - Fresh tomato sauce on the otherwise standard fare. We all shared a great antipasta salad and two ceasar salads; very crisp and seemingly made at time of order vs. ahead of time. We had a bottle of reasonably priced chianti as well. Seems great for large crowds too as there were two tables with 12-15 guests. Buon Appetito!

Pizza isn't pizza, in the Gulf Coast area, unless you go to Lillian's Pizza. From Gulf Shores, Alabama we drive approximately 40 mins. to get to this pizza restaurant which is really located in Flordia. Though that may seem a little far to go for pizza it is definately worth the drive. Yummy, yummy!

Decent non-chain pizza. Given the lack of options in the area, I rate it among the best. The sausage was flavorful. The supreme had a little kick to it. Maybe in the sauce or the pepperoncinis, I couldn't tell. Only problem was they put so much cheese on them that all three 16-inch pizzas we got gave off a lot of oil and the crust got soggy, and by the time we got back home, the box was soaked on the supreme. Have to say the 'za was still steaming hot in the box when I picked it up. Recommend ordering online or by phone 20 minutes before you get there to pickup and give your pizza time to steam off moisture. They have dine-in and plenty of space, but we might try that next time. Might suggest they go a little lighter on the cheese, but it could have been that day's team making the pizzas was a little heavy handed. If they fixed those things, I'd say it's a 5-star pizza joint on the Emerald Coast.

Great pizza. Far exceeded my expectations especially the chicken specialty pizza with mushrooms (I can't remember the name). I would steer clear of the Margharita pizza though (pretty bland, no fresh tomatoes or basil and some random bell peppers thrown in) Plus reasonably priced for a huge pizza. Nice find!

Wowzers! Fresh toppings, cut thick and piled high.

This place has super awesome pizza. It's way out in Orange Beach, but worth the drive or if you are visiting that area.

Props to the pizza here. So many choices, sooo many. The pizza menu is just huge. Tried several types and they were all killer pies. The bread sticks were outstanding. This place was close to our condo so it became an amazing option.

Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations.

Having worked in the pizza business for several years I know a good pizza! This place has a excellent style of pizza. A great brick oven style thin but crispy crust. Also have a great selection of appetizers. The garlic cheese bread is the best! Everyone must try a order of them with your next visit!

Its fairly good pizza. But I am guessing there is no other pizza for many miles - they don't seem to care to be great at what they do as it makes no difference. They will get more business than they can handle. Phone can be busy for 30+ minutes. When you get someone, they often could care less. I just got put on hold 5 times and then hung up. Every time they at least asked me if I wanted carry out or delivery and then put me on hold. When I did get through I answered that we wanted carry out 3 times in less than 30 seconds. This is my 4th time in this area in 5 years and probably the 10th time I have got or tried to get this pizza. Places that get good word of mouth in a tourist area can do whatever they want and it will never hurt them. This is a prime example.

Pleasant atmosphere with chalk boards! Near the beach. Seems great for groups. And, there's a bar. A vast number of selections on their menu, too. We ordered the Vegetarian Pizza (w/ spinach, tomatoes, onions, black olives, jalapeños [the latter in place of mushrooms] & lots of mozzarella cheese) -- this was A-OK. The Fettucini Alfredo (w/ no chicken / shrimp) was creamy (!) - though it could've used flavor. Their garlic bread = yum! Three stars for the food + very friendly service - the latter a major plus!

We went to this pizza joint on Thursday for lunch. We just moved into this area not too long ago so did not know what to expect. It was a cute establishment. They offer lunch buffet (11:30 to 1:30, Mon thru Thu) for 7.99 per person. At first the selection seemed small but the kitchen kept bringing different kind of pizza to replace. We loved the thin crust pizzas. The service was a tad bit slow but they seem all very polite and nice. We would like to come to try some interesting looking dishes on their regular menu sooner than later.
(4)Kenneth Patrick J.
Terrible Pizza. We had a 14" pizza delivered to our condo in OBA. We ordered it with pepperoni and green pepper, although there were hardly any peppers. What a disappointment. The pizza was undercooked and very doughy. The top of the pizza was a layer of grease and the cardboard box was soaked with grease. Did I mention the cheese? It is the fake stuff that chews like a big hunk of bubble gum! The pizza was fairly expensive too - we paid $25 for a 2 topping 14" pizza delivered with tip - and it was one of the worst restaurant pizzas we have ever had. Instead of writing a bad review, we thought to be fair we would call Lillian's and tell them. Well, their service is as bad as their pizza! They told us thank you for letting them know and made no offer to correct or make it right. Unbelievable! Pretty bad when Papa Johns and other pizza chains are better than an Italian restaurant.
(1)Clayton H.
Great pizza. Had thin and pan crust. Thin was crispy. Pan was about the similar thickness of a dominos. Toppings were chunky like a Papa Johns. Taste was way better than any chain restaurant though. Many specialty pizza options. Fair price. Only 4 starts because I was sitting without any water on a couple of occasions. Besides the occasional slow service the place was awesome.
(4)Melissa B.
Better than your average delivery chain pizza. Wings were good. Salad was fresh as well.
(4)Allison G.
Consistently good pizza and calzone. Haven't had a bad item yet, but the shrimp pesto calzone I had tonight is something I'll order again. Someone else in my group had the muffuletta - a half would be a challenge for most folks. A whole would feed multiple people. Looked tasty. I wasn't offered a bite. :) We have a place nearby - thankful to have a spot to eat good food that won't go out of business between visits!
(4)Will D.
Really Good pies. Quality(and generous) toppings. Regular crust is chewy and tasty. Did not try the pan crust. Still pretty good the next day as well.
(4)Christine G.
Not good pizza. Expensive for quality. Staff changes all the time. No draft beer. Many different types of pizza. They do have a huge space for large groups. Kids can draw with chalk on the walls.
(2)Kate H.
Busy restaurant with a wait usually during tourist season. Prefer pizza over their pastas. Service friendly staffs, will visit again.
(4)Andre J.
This place was good. Pizza and wings came out piping hot!!! Food tasted great. Enjoyed some good beer (Sweet Water IPA).
(4)Jennifer K.
Watched 6 people stand around for 10 minutes while we were not even acknowledged at our table. No drinks nothing. This has happened twice here. Seriously it sucks. I hope their management watches this.
(1)Taylor E.
Great pizza but horrible and SLOW service. We come to Perdido Key every summer and I'll never again eat inside the restaurant.
(2)Rebecca C.
Great pizza, very bad service. Our waiter was MIA for 20-30 min at a time. When he could be found, things were usually forgotten or slow to arrive to the table. Not sure if I would return or recommend this place to friends. Maybe just order the pizza to go.
(3)Mitch L.
Really fantastic pizza. They do not skimp on the toppings at all and their sauce is really tasty. The garlic cheese bread is super good. But the best thing I had there was the veggie patch pizza. It is a great twist on the regular veggie pizza of most places by giving you some toppings that most do not include.
(5)Kristie W.
Unique pizza place. Great for a quick, cheap pickup and amazingly, still good the next day. We got the spicy crab which was good but didn't need the black beans taking the kick out of the spicy. Kids got a pan cheese and that was also tasty. Great pizza choice.
(4)Elizabeth E.
Pretty average pizza. We ordered the spinach dip as an appetizer and it was barely warm. Doesn't look anything like the picture as it came in a Styrofoam cup. We also ordered the Big Dave's pizza which was nothing special. Their crust is boring and has no flavor. The meats were good though. We would not return.
(3)Jenny R.
Great pizza and a fun place to dine.
(4)Sarah H.
Based on the reviews --I assumed this was the best chance for good pizza. They have plenty of room for big families or groups to be inside or outside. The wait staff seems to be alright (the people behind us seemed to be waited on by their waiter 2 times for every 1 time our waitress remembered us). The pizza was ok. We had a 16" pan pizza with a ton of meat on it. It was really salty when we had the leftovers. There are definitely better pizza places if you're willing to drive 5-10 minutes away from the beach. Mellow mushroom had better pizza in my opinion and there's a really good FOUNARIS BROTHERS GREEK.
(3)Tony R.
Went here twiced while on vacation due spring break. It was ok for a pizza joint second time we went was the buffet during the week only and it had some good selection of pizza but ok for the money.
(3)Scott S.
Pan pizza was very fresh and good quality. Italian sausage was "real" and not some pre-packaged little balls of mystery meat. Good amount of cheese- not too much--and crust was thick enough but not doughy. Sauce is simple and had good tomato flavor. Very good overall. Avoid the cheese stuffed breadsticks, as they appear to be a frozen variety. They lack flavor of any type and look like they came from a grade school cafeteria. Reasonable prices considering the location.
(4)Jay C.
Great awesome service and it's more than just a pizza place! Literally has one of the greatest tastes one can indulge on the beach!!!! Good price, you can take out after ordering in the phone ... From salads, grilled chicken and shrimp, fettucini Alfredo was awesome!! Have ate here 3 times now within a span of 2 yrs and it's a must for a quick drive by and pick up or eat at the restaurant itself which has ample space for the entire family!!! Kid friendly and great service
(4)C G.
Over forty-five minutes to get pizza. We had a large party including hungry children. When it finally arrived the pizza was so-so in taste. Definitely not worth the wait. No plans on going back to this restaurant. Very disappointing.
(1)Trista S.
Amazing pizza and fabulous service! Would highly recommend this place! Will definitely be eating here again!
(5)Jaye H.
Went there once and dined in and have not been back since. The atmosphere was very blah and not very appetizing. Large basic open room filled with tables and chairs. Food was good but nothing special for all the hype of the Lillian's name. Service was good but given I wanted a great pizza it really did not matter. It wasn't the server's fault Again food was good, not bad, but nothing special. When I go out, I am looking for great food and something special not average
(2)Leigh V.
Stopped in for lunch on a Saturday (no buffet). Grown ups had the Hot Hawaiian pizza, kiddos had pepperoni pizza and spaghetti. The HH was excellent! No complaints from the kids, either. Our server (Sarah) was friendly and attentive. The bathrooms were clean, too. Overall, this was a fantastic choice.
(5)C D.
Best pizza on the beach, hands down. Always a family favorite when we are down here. They deliver to Orange Beach. Order the pan pizza with your favorite toppings.
(5)Fern K.
Went with a group of 20. Waiter handled things very well. Pizza was good. No issues. Good place for a casual night out with kids.
(4)Bradley A.
We ordered two pizzas to have delivered to the condo we were staying at that's about 1 mile from Lillian's. I order a thin crust cheese pizza (10") and a pan crust Hot Hawaiian pizza (10"). I didn't get a chance to try the cheese pizza because I was so busy eating my Hawaiian pizza, but my wife really liked it and gives it two thumbs up. The Hawaiian was amazing. It has a BBQ sauce for the sauce along with, grilled chicken, sausage, jalapeños, pineapples, and mozzarella. It was so good! I loved it. Now for the bad news. Remember how I mentioned I was about a mile from Lillian's? Well, it took an hour and forty five minutes to get our pizza to us. I actually called to cancel the order when they told me it was on its way. A couple minutes later it was there. So if you want amazing pizza but don't mind a wait then give them a try!
(4)Ed W.
I give Lillian's four stars for two simple reasons. First, it is what it is. It's a pizza place at my home away from home. There is not a trip to the beach I take that does not involve a night of Lillian's. Usually night one or night last, it is a tried and true staple of my beach dining fare. Yes, the old place pre-Ivan was a million times cooler, but I will not stop supporting the place because they moved across the street into a suburban-styled shop. The pizza is just what I need for my family of four at the beach. It's hot, freshly made, and delicious. Second, how cool is it to grab a pizza to go; take said pizza to the beach; and eat said pizza while surf fishing for pompano and blue fish? OK, for me, it's really, really cool. Four stars!
(4)Pam J.
We ate Lillian's Pizza twice and both times the pan pizzas were delicious. This is pizza made the way pizza was always meant to be. I also had the salad with olives and the garlic cheesy bread and they were also very good. I highly recommend this place and will definitely eat there again.
(5)Paul M.
Went for their buffet pizza was good as usual however I asked for a special pizza a pepperoni mushroom meatball my server took the order to the kitchen after about 20 minutes I asked about my pizza and was told it was not going to happen this is the second time this is happened to us after the first time we had a conversation with the manager where we were told that they would make a pizza for us that is not on the bar the food at Lillian's is outstanding the customer service is not so after they offered to give us another gift card while talking on the phone with the manager she agreed that customer service was lacking we really love this pizzeria we hope the customer service gets better so for reasons of customer service we're rating: with a 3 star
(3)B O.
The Mgr. is really mean to the employees she should be fired she does train the staff. She will say I will train you and never does than fired them because she isn't doing her job
(1)Jerry K.
Lillian's is pretty good pizza for this part of the country. I only give it three stars because I've lived in Chicago and nothing compares. If it weren't for that I would upgrade Lillian's to four stars. It's good pizza, no doubt about that.
(3)B H.
Went because of all of the glowing reviews and a rec from a local. Not even close to good. Have had pizza around the country, including Chicago's Uno's. Perhaps the good reviews are due to pan style and not thin crust. We did order one pan style but the server told us there was a mix up and asked were we ok w thin style. Oy! Our two thin pizza crusts were cracker like & tasted like a boxed mix. Tomato sauce on pizzas also bad but toppings were fine. We ordered a pepperoni/spinach & a perdido pass. Husband hated smoked flavor of perdido pass. Great Caesar Salad w exceptional homemade dressing, but croutons had overpowering Italian seasoning flavor. The place itself is roomy, with a fun ambience & nice servers. We left wondering if we got the back up chef? It was 4 pm. The meal was edible but almost bad.
(2)Lacy W.
Ordered from here our first night at the beach. We ordered 2 large pizzas a small pizza & a Calzone. Our order got to the condo really fast! The chicken ranch pizza was AMAZING! It was everyone's favorite. The Italian pizza & chicken pesto calzone were great too. We did also get a small pizza with crab on it. (Can't remember what it was called.) The crab had a lot of shell in it though. I overlooked that & gave it 5 stars anyway cause the service was so fast & everything else was so good. This will be a regular for when we come to the beach!
(5)Orlando H.
When it comes to pizza you can't beat Lillian's in Perdido Key. I love the place its definitely a family oriented restaurant with a little something for everyone. There is a bar and flat screen TVs in every corner for the sports minded to black board walls for the kids. You choice of seating an be either indoors or out. The menu is extensive , you should be able to find a combination to meet you needs. Pizza dominates this menu but you can find a few pasta dishes hear and there, but the pie is the king. We ordered a 16 inch cheese pizza. I have to say they almost had it perfect if it wasn't for the tin crust. The cheese and sauce was good, almost NYC like but the crust needed to bring it home and didn't. The crust had the consistency of a cracker and not that chewy doughy texture you would expect but we loved it. However the Pan Pizza was great and with fresh ingredients. This is there specialty and they do it well. I had the Italian Supreme and it' s similar to Unos for you East coast folks but much fresher flavor and they have the crust down. I almost ate the whole 10 inch pie, it was da bomb diggity. Definitely will be go to spot for me.
(4)Steve H.
Family run small business. You will likely see/speak with Lillian when you go in here. Not sure what it is, but this has always been one of my favorite pizza joints anywhere, going back to the days when she was in a smaller building down the road. I grade the pies "TOP NOTCH." My credentials are my fat ass! :)
(5)Stuart K.
We came in at 7 pm on a Saturday and left at 8:15 pm without ever receiving our food. Bar took 20 minutes to open a beer and a bring it out. I am usually forgiving of this kind of thing, but our kids food came out and after 20 more minutes our food never showed. Manager apologized and promised to meet us at the door with our order, we paid and she still failed to meet this promise. Poor management. What a disappointment.
(1)Angie C.
The server was friendly. And the crust was nice. But anything above the crust was mediocre at best. The cheese had the taste and feel of the cheap pizza cheese that is 25% fake cheese. I would rather less cheese but it all be real. The pesto sauce on one of our pizzas was nasty. Avoid that. The marinara sauce was OK. The pepperoni and sausage were mediocre. And they sadly put the pizza toppings (except pepperoni) under the cheese which is a hallmark of mediocre pizza places. Oh and the spinach artichoke dip was edible but not particularly good, lacking in overall flavor. And it was a small amount of dip relative to chips. Chips were cold. You have ovens. Maybe just a light warming up before serving? If you are really hungry, then it will probably taste better than I'm describing. If you are a pizza snob, then you won't be happy.
(2)Jim P.
I've never been disappointed (like other reviewers) in my decade-plus of going here. Adequate pizza for Gulf Coast, but quick service for crowds. Loved previous cozy location on beach, but new spot off highway now has plenty of parking. Longtime owner (and namesake) recently passed away. Hope family keeps quality and service going.
(4)Jason K.
Excellent thin or thick crust pizzas. Laid back atmosphere (and service). Our family makes it a must eat stop on our trips to Perdido.
(5)Robert W.
Maybe I'm a bit spoiled coming from the "Tri-State Area" (NY, NJ, CT) but how do you NOT sell pizza by the slice!? Was in a rush, didn't have time to wait for a small pizza, walked out.
(1)David L.
The pizza was good but the wait was ridiculous. We went on Friday night and ordered a couple salads, couple of pizzas, and a calzone. After waiting about 70 minutes from time of ordering, I got the waiters attention and he basically said this was normal for July and August and that speed of service was better in the off season. The strange thing is we were sitting next to the kitchen and nothing was really coming out for awhile to any of the tables so maybe something had gone wrong but why lie about it?
(3)Gene C.
I've not had better pizza in NYC or Chi-town. Get the Big Dave's Meat on thin crust. Add mushrooms. Sweet lord! This is a great place to stop when you're tired of all the great local seafood. Sit at the bar, take a table, get carry out, or delivery. Lots of options. Love it.
(5)Karen B.
Great Food - Fun atmosphere - The pizza choices are vast - everything we tried was great from Nacho's, potato skins, Pizza on thin crust--All Tasted so fresh...The staff was very friendly and the live music very pleasant. Eat out on the deck... enjoy the pics I posted...I would have posted the food pics too - but we we all dived right in....near Orange Beach - FL-BAMA.
(5)William H.
Really tasty pizza at a pretty good price. The kids had great spaghetti and meatballs and we all really enjoyed the enormous Caesar salads. I heartily recommend the Supreme Hawaiian. Inside looks pretty old and cheap, but the food is worth it and it seems to be a great place for families.
(4)Sam R.
Yum! Lillian's pizza is delicious. Whether you order plain cheese or the spicy crab, you can't go wrong- all pizzas are great here!
(5)Richard G.
Staying in Orange Beach for vacation and got on the elevator with the delivery guy. It smelled so incredibly good we just had to have it. So we ordered it for dinner. They deliver everything on the menu and considering how far away we were it's impressive that they deliver at all. The pizza is thin and crispy, just they way we like it. The pepperoni was thick and plentiful, sometimes two or three thick in one spote, not stingy with the meat at all. Nachos were enough to feed the whole family. We also drove down there for lunch a couple days later and had the buffet. It was very good as well. Same pizza of course so we were very pleased. It's not the cheapest place but the food is very good and the servings are large. We had leftovers from our delivered dinner that came in handy the next day after being at the beach.
(4)Luke B.
Great, trust me!
(4)Brittany K.
We ordered a pizza for delivery, we got pan crust with pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushroom, green olives, and peppers. The pizza was good the cheese was great but it was pretty typical when it comes to pizza nothing special. I would like to try this place again and try one of their special pizzas which may be more impressive. This pizza was better than your normal delivery pizzas and a good option if you want pizza. They also have a rather large menu of pasta options and sandwiches. All items on their menu are available for delivery which is a good option if you have been on the beach all day!
(3)Thomas R.
I'm a New York native, and while the style isn't the same as NYC the quality is just as good. Recommend the Hot Hawaiian if you're in the mood for something different.
(5)Vanessa G.
You know the pizza was terrible when you walk out, turn to each other and say, "Ive had better pizza from Dominoes'" The crust was like a cracker, dry and tasteless. Some of the slices of our large sausage pizza had one tiny piece of sausage. The sauce was blah with no spices. Not inexpensive either.
(1)Andrea Y.
Great pizza. Thin crust was very flavorful, good toppings. They deliver to orange beach hotels. Request paper items if you need them- they don't automatically bring them.
(4)Kevin S.
This may have become our traditional "first night here" pizza! We ordered a couple thin-crust pizzas last night and was very impressed. The pepperoni had a nice kick that you won't find at many places. The veggie toppings were all fresh and thinly sliced so they didn't overwhelm the pizza. They delivered right to our condo here in Orange Beach and the delivery man was very friendly and represented himself well.
(5)Lauren B.
After driving 12 hours - this is our first night at the beach dinner. The restaurant isn't much to look at but the food is good and reasonably priced.
(4)Cassandra S.
We had the buffet which was $7.99 I believe. Everything was super fresh. They had multiple types of pizzas that were replenished frequently. Thin crust and hand tossed/ pan pizza. In addition to pizza they also brought out their calzones which had super thin, crispy crusts. And two different types of pasta were included- spaghetti and chicken Alfredo. The salad bar had beautiful crisp greens, carrots, tomatoes, onions, green peppers, 2 types of cheese and 3 dressings. Everything was delicious. Nothing disappointed. Great service. They refilled drinks quickly and let us know when new things were up at the buffet. Wish we had one in Charleston, SC.
(5)Chris T.
As far a pizza goes, it's good. Better than any chain pizza. But for those that are use to Mazzio's, Pizza Hut or Dominos you will be blown away. Tonights take... XL Supreme pan crust XL Cheese thin crust XL Pepperoni pan crust $51.00 It's a hit with the kids and right up the street from our condo. We have been getting take out for the last 4 years are so and will continue. I have recommended pizza from here to all my friends and haven't heard a complaint yet. I have never eaten at the restaurant but I have waited at the bar for food. BTW Lillian is usually at the take out counter working the cash register. Good stuff!
(4)Jennifer B.
We had to wait 1.5 hours for carry out, but attribute this to "check in night". Just plan to call early or wait, its worth it! The pizza is amazing and the large is huge!
(4)Benjamin S.
I always dislike being the ONE person to give a bad review. But, it must be done. I came here with a large group, and they were simply not prepared. Not a single drink refill, a 20 minute wait for drinks, and very few options on their pizza buffet for the price. A very typical tourist restaurant if I was to describe it. At the end of our meal, we waited, and waited, and waited for the . When we finally did receive the cheque, no one picked up our credit card to process it, and no one was holding down the fort at the cash register. Simply unorganized and unprepared for a large group.
(2)Rachel A.
Vegetables, ricotta and mozzarella on a thin crust. Pretty good! Get it delivered and eat it on the beach!
(4)Heather F.
"We were passing through on a road trip and found this jewel. The Italian dressing was made in-house and the pan pizza was great. We also highly recommend the pesto portabello mushroom."
(5)Ken B.
Good pizza. Better than any chain pizza you can find in Orange Beach. So, it is worth the drive. They are not in any hurry. So, don't expect to gt in & out in a hurry.
(4)Landon H.
Incredible. We just finished the meal and it was so good I had to post a review from my iPhone. Quick turnaround. Extremely friendly. One of the best pan pizzas I've ever eaten.
(5)B P.
Pizza gets a 5 star. The service not so much. Very inattentive and forgetful waitress and no one manning the souvenir counter. We had a wonderful Hot Hawaiian Pizza (Olive oil, barbecue sauce, grilled chicken, American bacon, pineapple, jalapenos, Mozzarella). This is one of the best pizzas that I've ever tasted.
(4)Nathan M.
Just ate some of the Pizza Scampi... AMAZING!!!!! Granted I added a dash of salt, old bay and creole seasoning. But awesome!!! Just posted on my Facebook, best pizza I've ever had.
(5)Jess J.
We were on our way into orange beach from New Orleans. The kids were cranky and hungry from being on a road trip and it was almost 8pm. We saw the previous reviews on yelp and decided to call to check the distance from the caribe resort. They were open and only 10 minutes down the road. We actually placed an order for our pizza by phone so that it would be closer to ready when we got there to eat. It worked perfectly. Pizza was ready 10 min after we walked in. The place is huge and staff was friendly. We got a giant traditional (pep and sausage pizza), cheeze bread, bread sticks and 6 drinks. Our check was only 45 dollars and we fed 4 adults and two kids...with 2 slices ofpizza to bring home! It was realllly good! Great choice. I would recommend to all, especially families! Oh, and we also found out that they deliver all the way to the caribe in orange beach!
(5)Kevin W.
Small Buffett but excellent service and the pizza is amazing. Strongly recommend.
(5)Charles S.
As far as pizza goes this is what you're looking for. We had supreme and veggie. It totally rocked and even reheated well the next day.
(5)Richard W.
This place is great. I prefer to just order take out than eat in. Only reason I say this is because we can take it back to our condo and have a great, salty meal after a long day at the beach. Truly is good pizza!
(5)J W.
The pizza at Lillian's gets 5 stars, however, the management is lacking. I have been using Yelp for years and never left a review, but the lack of customer service is what inspired this review. We are in Orange Beach for our yearly vacation and it is customary that we eat at Lillian's. When we arrived, we were told we had to wait, which was no problem. After waiting for 30 minutes, we were seated. Our server then informed us that they only had 10" or 12" pan crust pizza. Our large party had planned on ordering 3 18" pizza's. Because of the size of our party, we were forced to order 5 12" pizzas. Because this increased the price of our bill, we asked if there was anything they could do to offset that. Our server, Will was very helpful, but let us know there was nothing he could do. We asked to speak to the manager, and she came to our table. She said that if it were their fault, she would be glad to take care if it, but it was not their fault. We attempted to have a discussion but it became apparent we were not going to make any progress and it was just making us angry. She continued to say that it was not their fault. Had she just apologized, it would have been fine, but her attitude was very upsetting. We have now been here an hour and a half and are still waiting for our food. As much as I love the pizza here, I will think long and hard before coming back. Update-After waiting about 10 more minutes, our order came out. 3 of the pizzas were thin crust. Because it was "their fault" this time, she took care of the 3 thin crust pizzas. The pizzas were all very good, and the customer service improved. It did take a while, but it was packed and my pizza was worth it.
(2)D B.
Excellent service, year after year.

This restaurant deserves a higher rating but I cannot give it do them due to the service. We ate at this location on the first day of summer and we knew service would be slower due to the Gulf Oil Crisis. We were expecting slower service due to staff reductions. This was not the case. They had plenty of serves when we arrived for lunch. Our hostess greeted us kindly. However, then is got interested. Our server was either clueless or had somewhere to be. She said probably 2 words to us. After placing our drink order, our waitress was seen going out to her car. Then she was seen driving off. She never told us that she was leaving or that someone would be finishing our table. 3 different members of the wait staff walked by us for 10-15 minutes. We were all in need of drink refills or more beer and finally a guy stopped by a our table. He had to be asked if he was going to be our server. All this 'bad' service was forgotten when the pizza delivered. IT was perfectly cooked. The toppings tasted fresh. The toppings were proper proportioned. The temperature was perfect, not steaming burn the roof off of your mouth but not cold either. They only have bottled beer so they owners might want to look into a draft system. They do however have a nice variety of bottled beer.

I like it. I have only had take out though. Wide variety on menu.

Love this place! We always go multiple times on our visits to the coast. My husband adores the Spicy Crab pizza. I think the homemade salad dressings are amazing! All the pizzas that we have tried there are just great. I would dare say this is probably the best pizza I've had! We also love the price and the atmosphere. It's always clean and not too loud. We like to sit outside on the deck and eat when it's nice out. And all the servers we've had have been very friendly and prompt. This pizza warms up great the next day for lunch too.

This pizza is a must have for every trip we take to orange beach. Local legend. Great service. Great for families. Buffet is legit.

D-frickin'-licious! All of their pizzas rock! I suggest pan crust. Their delivery is great and eating in is always fun too. This place totally has their act together! This place is a life saver for anyone who lives out on the key! Definitely try this out!

Yea, this pizza wasn't THAT good... I wanted the BEST pizza around- no a chain, and what I got was some cardboard with toppings... The supreme pan was good though..

Tried two different pies, two salads and the ravioli on a recent visit. 4 * for Big Dave's Meat Pizza (Pan Crust): combo of canadian bacon, beef, bacon bits, pepperoni, italian sausage and mozzarella. 3.5 * for Chance's Island Delight Pizza (Pan Crust): combo of shrimp, italian sausage, onions, garlic and mozzarella. 3 * for ravioli - Fresh tomato sauce on the otherwise standard fare. We all shared a great antipasta salad and two ceasar salads; very crisp and seemingly made at time of order vs. ahead of time. We had a bottle of reasonably priced chianti as well. Seems great for large crowds too as there were two tables with 12-15 guests. Buon Appetito!

Pizza isn't pizza, in the Gulf Coast area, unless you go to Lillian's Pizza. From Gulf Shores, Alabama we drive approximately 40 mins. to get to this pizza restaurant which is really located in Flordia. Though that may seem a little far to go for pizza it is definately worth the drive. Yummy, yummy!

Decent non-chain pizza. Given the lack of options in the area, I rate it among the best. The sausage was flavorful. The supreme had a little kick to it. Maybe in the sauce or the pepperoncinis, I couldn't tell. Only problem was they put so much cheese on them that all three 16-inch pizzas we got gave off a lot of oil and the crust got soggy, and by the time we got back home, the box was soaked on the supreme. Have to say the 'za was still steaming hot in the box when I picked it up. Recommend ordering online or by phone 20 minutes before you get there to pickup and give your pizza time to steam off moisture. They have dine-in and plenty of space, but we might try that next time. Might suggest they go a little lighter on the cheese, but it could have been that day's team making the pizzas was a little heavy handed. If they fixed those things, I'd say it's a 5-star pizza joint on the Emerald Coast.

Great pizza. Far exceeded my expectations especially the chicken specialty pizza with mushrooms (I can't remember the name). I would steer clear of the Margharita pizza though (pretty bland, no fresh tomatoes or basil and some random bell peppers thrown in) Plus reasonably priced for a huge pizza. Nice find!

Wowzers! Fresh toppings, cut thick and piled high.

This place has super awesome pizza. It's way out in Orange Beach, but worth the drive or if you are visiting that area.

Props to the pizza here. So many choices, sooo many. The pizza menu is just huge. Tried several types and they were all killer pies. The bread sticks were outstanding. This place was close to our condo so it became an amazing option.
