Omega Pizza & Restaurant

If you aren’t just getting beer, don’t bother. I’ve tried three different things three different times and have been consistently disappointed. Plus ants.

Closes at 11 BUT … NO SLICES LEFT AT 10:15!!! So much for a neighborhood pizza place. Will not go back. Boooooooooo!

Full disclosure: the only reason I got food at this dump was because I was stopping at CVS across the street. This place doesn’t even deserve one star.
I ordered a cheesesteak and fries because my girlfriend already had dinner. About 20 – 30 minutes after eating my stomach would not stop rumbling. Within another ten minutes I was vomiting uncontrollably and my body was profusely sweating. I haven’t gotten sick like this in at least ten years. Something tells me the food was not stored the right way and not cooked the right way.
I will never go to this dump again, as it has cost me a long, miserable night hugging the toilet until 5am the next morning. I’d suggest anyone in the area go to Randazzos, Gusto, or the Spot. In this case, you can judge a book by its cover and pass right by this sad excuse for anything more than a craft beer store.
Disgusted.

First time in Philly I came from Los Angeles and I must say I’ve had pizza everywhere. From Hollywood to Beverly Hills. But I must say this is the best pizza I’ve ever eaten they were really nice and accommodated our large group late at night! I highly recommend the sausage pizza

Good pizza and huge beer selection. You don’t expect them to have Adventinus from the looks of the outside! Slices are huge and the orders are complete quickly. Their sausage are slices not grounds/​crumbles which is a plus. Not very oily. Neighborhood go to spot

This review is not for the food but for the beer selection alone. It is not cheap, but the best place to mix and match and try different beers. I agree that any beer snob would love the selection here.

this place is legt. fuck the bougie place across the way opening up.

Really great beer selection for such a tiny place. Many a Friday or Saturday afternoon has been destroyed by their bottle selection. I work and live very close so when I’m done with work, it’s too easy to justify stopping in before heading home.
Food is good; I mean it’s just a pizza place and it’s about average there
Staff is super nice

I go here mainly for the beer, as the food leaves little to be desired.
A decent beer selection in an area of the city where there’s not really a distributor.
The employees are always super nice and conversational too.
If you must get food here, the jalapeño poppers are pretty good, as are the salads. I wouldn’t recommend the pizza though — it lacks any sort of flavor.
Overall, a great place to grab a mix-​and-​match 6-​pack to go.

I was walking around Center City, and I came up on this place. People I know in this neighborhood say the pizza here is to die for, so I think «what the hell» and come in here and get 3 slices of pepperoni. I take a bite, and my first thought is: «Needs some garlic powder and oregano». So then I put that on, and take a bite, and then I think: «This is NOT as good as people are saying it is, but, it is still on-​par with what most pizzerias in Philly are.»
So, that’s my review. It’s your average run-​of-​the-​mill pizzeria that is really convenient for people living in the area. Not worth a walk over from Walnut, but great as a little community place. A huge selection of beer.

Great beer selection. Food isn’t great, but it’s the cheapest meal you could possibly buy in the city.

Omega Pizza is the clearinghouse for all the grease in Rittenhouse and Fitler Square. From the Omega Fries– a carby cheesey delight — to the pizza slices, you can expect the greasiest feast in town. And I, for one, love it. Sometimes you dont want a salad and a cup of tea. You to unbuckle your belt, have two slices and a beer.
Oh, and the beer selections is fair. Beyond your domestics and common imports you have a wider selectiuon of beer that appeals to many tastes. They even have my favorite cider (JK’s Scrumpy) which warms my cold angry heart. Please make your own six pack.
But the place is kind of a cess pit in the middle of the bougie ideal that is Fitler square. As I am a rat among the city’s rich and powerful, I gladly frequent it and so should you.

OK this comment may put me more into the alcoholism category, but there needs to be a place to get beer closer to my house! I mean, this is the closest and let’s be honest it’s still too far. It’s football Sunday and I’m in need of beer for me and friends, on a stat basis. Right? Maybe even delivery? (attention entrepreneurs of Philadelphia).
Anyways, Omega Pizza. It’s a pizza place, but how many people actually come here for the pizza? Well I never have. The beer selection is really really good, you’ve got your domestic crafts, imports, and then you have your domestic crap (I’m sorry PBR, I really do enjoy you). There’s something for everyone.
The craft and imports are pretty damn expensive for mix-​n-​match or 6 pack. There is no discount for buying a 6 pack. But honestly, it’s just as expensive at Food & Friends, The Foodery, or Beer Heaven. The cheap stuff is still pretty affordable but not beer distributor cheap. Note to beer drinkers of the city: stop in Jersey for beer/​wine when you have the chance.

Great beer selection.
Bangin food.
Friendly staff.
Couldn’t ask for more within walking distance of my boyfriend’s house.

Not bad for mixed six
The go-​to spot in G-​Ho
Food if you’re hungry
If you live in G-​Ho, you know Omega. You may not like Omega, but you know it. It’s the go-​to beer spot in the ‘hood, and for good reason. It’s pretty much the only spot in the ‘hood for beer. The main draw is the mixed six pack availability. While they don’t have quite the same selection as the Foodery or Food and Friends, they definitely have enough of a variety to get you and a few friends through an evening while still catering to everyone’s tastes.
Don’t want to break the bank on some lambic’s and off the wall ales? Hit up their 12 High Life cans for $ 10. It’s kind of ridiculous (the case is literally cut apart with a box cutter,) but try to find a better take home deal on beer. Go ahead, seriously.
As far as the food, there’s better spots in the area. I always go with the meatball sub, but they sell pizza by the slice as well. Sometimes I’ll grab one and show while picking out a sixer.

Ordered from here with co-​workers for a goobye lunch as two of our own are leaving us forever. Pizza is the staple lunch of our little department and it was at the suggestion of one of our soon-​to-​be departed that we order from here. I wasn’t overly impressed when it arrived, but will say that the vegetable pizza was much more decorated than I would have thought. With piled high mushrooms, spinach, onions, tomatoes, and broccoli this was my days worth of vegetables on one slice of hot gooey pizza. The crust was meh, on the dry side, and not beckoning me to finish it, but overall the order was ready on time and accurate which is more than I can say for a lot of other pizza joints around the city.

I’ve only eaten food from here once, about 5 years ago. so… i don’t really remember it.
BUT
they have a fabulous take out beer selection and you can mix & match 6 packs. maybe not as extensive as the foodery, but you can find that kind of stuff here, too.

Waste of time. Ordered two pizzas and a drink. It took an hour and a half to deliver it four blocks and it arrived lukewarm. They forgot the drink, we called them twice and I had to pick it up myself two and a half hours later.
Fail!

ok

Omega pizza is the perfect hangover, drunk, or just hungry food. The pizza isn’t amazing by any standards — and I definitely don’t like their plain pizza all that much. HOWEVER, their vegetable pie is FANTASTIC. I love it. The cheese is pretty fresh. The vegetables they choose are a great combo — and they are ALWAYS fresh. The sauce is also good.
Additionally, they sell beer. AND they were open during the huge blizzard this past winter!
Definitely go here and try the vegi pizza.
