The crew here are amazing. I connected immediately with the Mike Tyson's punch out playing while I ordered my food. Connected with a veteran that was amazing and overall the experience is fantastic. The ambiance is immediately retro which growing up watching all of it and experiencing it with my parents and brother it couldn't be better. Fantastic crew and food is absolutely amazing.

Ever since seeing it on social media, I have been wanting to try Alphonso's "Home of the World Famous" Lighting Rod Mozzarella Sticks. You're able to call ahead to order them for pick up, which I recommend because it's a small venue with a small parking lot. We had four adults sharing and they recommended we get two. I know that sounds ridiculous but they are HUGE and two was almost too much. I honestly don't know how they do it. They are handmade using Wisconsin mozzarella, and it was warm, gooey, and had beautiful cheese pulls from the first the last bite. Also, the herb seasoned breading was SOO crispy and wonderfully paired with their homemade pizza sauce for dipping. I don't understand how they're able to make these (nor do I want to ruin the magic), but I would definitely get these again!

The lightning rods, pizza and Calzones are all to die for! Their Marinara sauce is super tasty with it being slightly sweet. Every time I go the staff is always friendly, help and kind. I love the retro, 80's vibe inside with action figures, arcade games and stickers galore. Alphonso's is a MUST!!

The giant mozzarella log is what drew me in. It was fresh, that stake mozzarella stretch, and stayed hot for a bit after the drive. I ordered the 14" Shmo with added diced tomatoes on their original crust, and it smelled so good I didn't have time to take a picture before I dove in. The crunchy crust complimented the pizza marvelously, and the sausage was fresh and tasty

After seeing a TikTok months ago, I knew on a recent road trip that I had to hunt down the famous Lightening Rod!! This is a carry out or delivery joint only. There are no places to sit and there's around 4 parking spaces. I would highly suggest ordering ahead and picking it up. The decor is all 80's themed and was super fun!! There was a woman who took our order who was not overly friendly and just pointed to the paper menu. For me, this is where this place lost a star... The Lightening Rod was absolutely everything I wanted! It does have a thicker crust but you get ranch and pizza sauce to dip in! That was super tasty!! We did a pepperoni pizza with their signature crust. I liked it! It also had a nice leopard crust! The pepperoni was a bit thick for me and I didn't really like the flavor. The cheese however, made for an EPIC cheese pull!! This place is cheese crazy and I am here for it!!! This is definitely worth a stop for the Lightening Rod!!!

No photos, just a quick review. Ordered delivery via third party. This review is for the pizza quality and freshness itself. We ordered two cracker crust house pies - one CSMO and the other pepperoni, pineapple, giardiniera & cream cheese. Cracker crust is really nice flaky and has good flavor, holds the toppings well. Not a bland crust by any means !! ... and if you want you can flavor your crust, they have a variety of options. Toppings are plentiful and fresh, really really nice. The toppings to crust ratio is toppings heavy. The cheese is good, the sauce is good. For me the toppings and the crust stood out the most. All around a solid choice in pizza, old school menu with an elevated twist of toppings and/or portions and next time I plan on trying that arm of a cheese log. I'm sure that's their most popular item, but I'm happy to say that Alphonsos's goes far beyond the enormous appetizer and can attest to a really fantastic menu. I'll be back and look forward to it!

I love mozzarella sticks so of course we had to stop on our way to our final destination. They are huge! The photo does not do them justice! The woman who placed my order over the phone and when we arrive was amazing! She was so sweet and accommodating! I asked for plates for our kids and she gave us pizza trays and asked if we wanted juice boxes for our littles! They go above and beyond for their customers and that's commendable! People who truly appreciate their customers. Two thumbs up all around!

So good! We loved the pizza and thought the sauce had good flavor, plenty of dill and pickles to make it a true pickle pizza! The mozzarella sticks were so big that we didn't even finish one. We ordered pickup and it was hot and ready promptly.

Atmosphere is super cool-- 80's theme! So many things from then that I hadn't seen or thought about for years! Parking is challenging to say the least. There are 4 spots on the side of the building which are super tight... This is NOT a sit down restaurant, carry out only, but there are 80's music videos playing while you wait! They didn't call our name when our order was ready so our son in law who ordered right before us got his a good 15 minutes before my husband finally asked about ours; that sucked. Now for the food.... YUM! The mozzarella stick "appetizer" should be eaten by at least three people if you also want to have pizza! The marinara sauce was interestingly sweet. The Hami pizza was SO good. Lots of cheese and plenty of toppings. Was worth the drive from Green Bay, just next time we'll know to find a place to eat it rather than the McDonald's parking lot
