Hands down the best pizzeria in the Coal City-Braidwood-Wilmington-Diamond area that doesn't come from a gas station. Beware if you order the Geo's Nuggets (aka a sauceless pizza with pizza sauce on the side for dipping). They're pretty addictive, and you may find yourself eating into an oblivion. The pizza is tasty as well. My 'za order is pretty basic with your classic cheese and pepperoni combo, and it's executed just fine. Long story short: Choose Geo's if you don't want to travel to Kankakee, Joliet, or Morris.

I will upgrade my past review to a 3 star review since the owner has contacted me about a replacement meal. Will update as needed after we order.

Best pizza! The crust was crunchy! Not greasy or overcooked. Just the right amount of cheese. My brother will only eat the pizza from Geo's; he's very picky. So we ordered. I was expecting a blah dinner, but was very surprised with the product. We ordered the vegetable pizza. It was delivered on time and they took my card number over the phone. My mom likes the pizza too. All around great experience for a Friday movie night!

This is some really good pizza! We always get the pan pizza. The ingredients are very good quality. I love the dough nuggets too. The beef pocket is one of my favorite things too! It is a little bit overpriced, in my opinion, but it is some of the better pizza around.

i could write a review for days about when i was 13, living in coal city, and i would wait, on saturday mornings, for 11am to come so i could order an order of cheese nuggets from geo's pizza and eat the whole box by myself. geo's is by far the best pizza in the universe. sorry martians, you can't win this battle. geo's has been making pizza in coal city with the perfect sauce, ingredients, flavor, etc. for as long as i can remember, and they are the first place i call when i get off the plane on a trip back home. the sad thing is, most people in the country will never get to try geo's because it is located in this blink-and-you-miss-it town, but if you ever have the chance, be sure to order cheese nuggets. (there are actually other locations in the same area, so if you're in that neck of the woods, look them up and see if they've got a location near you!) they are reminicent of pizza hut's cheese breadsticks, except for two things: they were here first! and they taste sooooo much better. essentially, cheese nuggets are a pizza, cut into diamond shapes.. dough, and cheese... you dip it in marinara or garlic sauce, etc. and you could die right there with this bliss in your hand. cheers, geo's... for being my all-time favorite pizza joint and for being there for me all those years!

Best pizza I had so far in America. We stayed in a small town called Braidwood in Illinois last summer of 2009. People go here to hunt or fish for a vacation. The choice of food in the area was very limited. Not to mention those choices were not even good, except for two local fast food. One of them is Geo's Pizza. Oh my gosh! This is even better than the famous Giordanno's Deep Dish Pizza. Back then I wasn't Yelping. So now that I am Yelping and I have come across of a picture that I took-the Mega Meat combo which is sinfully delectable, I decided to make a review of the place that left me hungry for more. That flavorful pan still lingers in my head. Although this review was for the span of the summer of 2009, that 4 months we stayed their became memorable and part of that experience was the most delicious pizza we had so far, and it's better than any pizzas we had here in California. Locals know that this place is great! If you are travelling and happen to be in the radius of this place, I suggest you check it out! We never dine in here. We always had our pizza delivered in the comfort of the room we are staying. Fast service and those who deliver are polite and friendly. Check out their menu at geospizza.net

Was staying in Braidwood and wanted a pizza, and I heard this place was the best in the area. I ordered a thin crust with sausage and an Italian beef calzone. Their quality is comparable to Papa Johns, which isn't bad considering their prices are VERY resonable

My family and I will not eat from this place ever again. Why you ask well for one there were feathers still on my wife's buffalo wings, the roast beef with grilled onions I had ordered was cooked deli meat with raw onions on it (not cooked) and the juice that came with it looked like water. Even the pizza tasted like crap. To top it off we called and complained and the manager who answered didn't care what so ever. The only thing that was good that came out of Geo's was the fried mushrooms. Don't wast your money here. Be sure we will find another place to go for dinner.
