George’s Pizza & Steakhouse

We went with a group of six and were seated quickly on a Friday night. The good: There are several pizzas that reflect Pella's unique heritage.
The pizza was good--a little bland--but good.
Prices are very reasonable. The not so great: Once served, we didn't see our waitress again, we had to find someone for refills and again to order more.
Some of the hard rock music seemed more for anger therapy than a family restaurant.
If you like beer, choices are very limited--one local bottled beer among them.

I met my perfect pizza here, but that's farther ahead in the review. Greeted by the owner upon arrival at 645 on Wednesday night.
The place was packed.
I was seated within 5 minutes though.
The place is deceptive, it look smallish until you realize it goes WAY back and around the corner and up.
I was seating in the middle of the action, right outside the wait station.
That was fun getting to see the wheels in motion. Menu of appetizers, sandwiches, salads, pizzas, pastas, Greek specialities, and more.
I enjoy having a bunch of options, yet all on a 2 sided menu.
Not so many choices that I am overwhelmed. Chose a side salad with creamy parm garlic dressing, onion rings, and a pizza with Canadian bacon, red onion, sausage, green olives.
Dressing super good.
Salad basic.
Onion rings thick cut (I had asked and was told they were a mix of thick and thin- they were definitely thick).
They were fine, I prefer thin.
Pizza =WOW!!!! Best.
Ever.
Thin yet chewy crust, lots of toppings, just right amount of sauce and cheese.
Piping hot. Server was chatty.
That's okay.
She was probably thinking a single dinner wanted the convo.
The staff in general was working like a well oiled machine.
I mean, they were PACKED.
Owner and his family all hands on deck.
Love seeing that. My total which was easily enough for 2 or 3 people was $35.
I tipped $10 cause my server really tried to engage me. Bringing the family back for my birthday dinner!!!!

I ran in here for a quick bite after arriving in Pella late evening.
The pizza was legit.
Nice thin crust, not overbaked, nothing weird.
A solid pizza.
Great service. If you're craving some greens though, for the love of lettuce please do not order the side salad.
For 4 bucks, I was served a small bowl of iceberg lettuce with a few shredded carrots and some crackers.
Do better, George!
