Pepperoni Bill's Pizzeria

Finally got to experience Pepperoni Bill's for the first time tonight. We have been trying for over 4 years. We frequent the lake often. My sister has always claimed Peperoni Bills is one of her favorite restaurants down here. Every time we have attempted to go they have been closed, even though Google and or their website would say they were open. I understand there has been a lot that has happened over the past 2 years with Covid challenges and now staffing and shortage of supplies. Tonight we waited an hour to be seated and were told our only options were 3 hand tossed pizzas or the salad bar because everything else was sold out. The staff was friendly and the pizza was good, but with our issues of this restaurant never being open and the very limited menu tonight we are giving 2 stars. Hopefully on a future trip down we will have a better experience and be able to try more of the menu items.

Truly a great pizza place. I had their meatballs and garlic bread to start and the meatballs were large and flavorful with a really nice and light consistency. I followed up with a calzone that had some of the best ground beef I've ever had at pizza place, so often ground beef for a pizza is tough and bland but this was great. Everything was made to order exactly as we requested and the server was quick and attentive. I would absolutely recommend a visit.

We are visiting from our of town. 5 of us decided to visit here for some pizza based on the reviews instead of driving all the way to Osage Beach. I always appreciate a small business and always give grace to them, however I also will always be truthful. This is a cute little place right in the square. Unfortunately no subs or pasta were available at all and the reason given was that they only had 2 cooks. We all order and as I'm eating my salad the server mentions the $8.95 salad bar is a 1 trip only. Usually salad bars are all you can eat, especially for $9, however the deep rim plates allow you to get a pretty large amount. Our pizzas/calzone come. We spent over $100. None of us like them at all. The consensus was nothing tasted fresh but rather it tasted like frozen pizza from Walmart. Sauce tasted like it was from a can, the dough felt chewy and bland, the toppings tasted frozen and flavorless and the way mine was cut was very confusing as several pieces were the size of a half dollar. We were thoroughly disappointed. The best thing about the food was the little sweet peppers at the salad bar. They also have a little robot server. This is our experience through our lens and tastes. If you're in the area stop by, perhaps you will enjoy it but, it's definitely not for us.
