Wow!
A huge thank you to Flatwater Free Press for sharing our La Casa Pizza West story. ❤️
For over 70 years, we’ve had the incredible honor of serving Omaha with the same secret recipes, the same thin, crispy slices, and the same welcoming spirit that’s made us an Omaha staple. None of it would’ve been possible without our amazing patrons — the families, the first dates, the late-night cravings, and the multi-generational traditions you’ve built with us.
We’re not just grateful… we’re fired up to keep the legend alive, one perfect pizza at a time.
Come see us soon — the oven’s hot and the history is delicious. 🍕
La Casa and its signature Omaha-style pizza is an argument waiting to happen, writes Sarah Baker Hansen.
What’s inarguable: It’s a pizzeria intertwined with its city, an undeniably popular restaurant still going strong at its original Leavenworth location underneath the iconic glowing neon sign of Peppi strumming a guitar, and at two other spots in central and west Omaha.
Others question the signature Romano cheese, aged at least six months before it makes it into the restaurant.
But it’s more than a debate. It’s Omaha history, Sicilian history and a family’s story, too.
