Anybody know anything about Var’s Pizza? Location is the old Unleaded BBQ spot near the Perkins Rd Overpass.

Terrible name but it can't be any worse than Schlitz and Giggles.

I think it’s the same people just rebranding.

Some relation to Ivar's, perhaps?

A sub par bbq place replaced by a sub par pizza place
Someone throwing money away
I’ll give it 9 months because if the quality isn’t close to zeppelins they won’t make it
Would be better off turning it into a Izzo or lit pizza

Good grief, man. They haven’t even opened yet and you’re claiming their pizza isn’t good?

Just talking about pizza, bro. Do you like pizza?

Building looks almost complete. Owners of the building own Ivar's, opened Unleaded and rebranded because Unleaded didn't work out.
Food was okay and the placed was hardly ever packed. I never got a warm slice of brisket on the three times I went. Also, it was weird that there was such a massive liquor bar in a BBQ restaurant. They have an Instagram account now but with zero posts.
Var's PIzza
I'm hoping they succeed, along with whatever the rebranding is going on across the street at the old Bumsteer's location.

The rooftop looks complete. Along the stairwell looks like they'll add some light fixtures in the walls. Probably waiting on appliances.
Probably taking so long because it more than likely is a money issue.

Rumor I heard was the folks who started the remodel of that building stopped paying rent earlier this year. All of the old building materials were hauled away a few weeks ago.

Opened a BBQ restaurant without a pit master...
Burned through renovation dollars for a damn pizza place...
Something tells me this place ain't gonna make it.

So, Var's Pizza... intriguing, right? I've been hearing whispers about it, but haven't made my way over there just yet. Always on the lookout for new pizza joints to add to my rotation. But hey, if you're still scratching your head on where to grab a slice, let me toss in my two cents.Now, let's talk about pizza nirvana. For me, it all goes back to this lewiston ny pizza. That first bite, man, it was like a flavor explosion in my mouth. The crust had this perfect crispiness, the sauce was tangy but not overpowering, and the toppings... oh, don't even get me started on the toppings.

I love S & G. When my daughter was at LSU, that’s where we’d go get pizza.

Just talked with one of the owners. Pizza chef just got hired. Not sure when they’ll open.
