Geno’s Italian Deli

Geno’s Italian Deli in Bowling Green, Kentucky has no shortage of options. In addition to pizza, they serve breakfast, salads, gyros, wraps, dogs, pasta, sandwiches, entrées, and even fruit smoothies. If I am ever able to visit again, I would like to try one of their sandwiches. They have a good meat selection that they cut fresh for each sandwich. However, being that I am not The Sandwich Fan, I looked forward to having some of their pepperoni pizza on this trip.
Geno’s offers pizza-​by-​the-​slice as well as three different sizes of whole pies that range from 12 to 16 inches. I went with the quicker pizza-​by-​the-​slice option as I was just swinging in for a brief lunch. When they brought it out to me, I thought the pizza looked kind of bland or cookie-​cutter, like it was a frozen pizza they just heated up. However, its looks were deceiving, and my taste buds were more impressed with it than my eyes. It was somewhat doughy, but I didn’t mind as I liked the taste of their dough. Also, the nice flavor of their sauce still stood out on the thicker crust. It had enough cheese, but there wasn’t anything too special about it or the pepperoni. Gino’s Italian Deli is worth a visit, and I’m confident that you can find something on their menu that peaks your interest. For pizza specifically, it would likely be better to try one of their whole pies, and there is also an option called Mister B’s Pizza and Wings in the area.

The food is awesome! Great pizza! Only thing is that their service is very poor. I called ahead of time to order and was placed on hold for ever! Then when we went in, there was hardly anyone there. 3 people working so no excuse for the long hold on the phone. We will still go there for the pizza though.

Just left lost river pizza looking for another pizza joint. So far Genio’s price is good 12 bucks For a large two topping pie. Looks lik we they can make any type of sandwich you want. They said the pit is new you’ll style. At least it a style compared to lost river (glad I walked out of the place with my money still in my pocket) Back to the pie on hand the crust is crispy. Not bad pie had better looks like this place sell more Sandi chest than pizzas.

Service is great, food is very good and they have a Huge menu so you can have something different each time.

Staying in Bowling Green at the Holiday Inn across the street from this awesome place. I found this joint several years ago on a drunken hunt for Pizza and quite honestly I forgot about it till I rediscovered it right here on Unilocal.It is a REAL Deli. Lots of sandwich options, vegetarian options, dessert options etc. Real gyro meat spinning and ready to carve. Pizza. Great hot and cold sides. I am chowing down right now on a ½ Meatball Hoagie (more than enough for one person), some great olive and pickle salad, chips and a nice cold Powerade. Big dinner for 11 bucks. Oh yea, and a homemade cannoli! Meatball Hoagie is great because French Bread it is served on is thick enough and toasted crispy enough to hold the saucy meatballs. They nestle them in like a hot dog in a bun. Unlike Subway or Jimmy Johns etc they actually slice all meat (like I said– a real deli). Definetly family friendly, great service, tons of selections. I recommend you eat here.

This place was amazing. My colleagues and I were driving from Nashville to Louisville, and purposely stopped in Bowling Green for lunch at Geno’s. As my colleague drove away from the interstate, and kept driving, I thought, «This place had better be good. This is taking us pretty far off-​track.»
It was completely worth it. I had the eggplant parmesan sandwich. The wheat bread was incredible, crispy on the outside and soft inside. I had a side of pickle and olive salad, my greatest fantasy. I liked the enormous list of options for sides, both cold and hot. I had half of a chocolate cannoli. So. Good. Nice service. You do have to wait a bit for the food, as they make it on the spot.
I will gladly drive an extra 5 minutes off the interstate for lunch again.

The best sandwich on town. It is a lunchtime destination that is not for someone on a tight timetable, but rather interested in an outstanding sub. The Italian sub and New Yorker with the herbed havarti are both top notch.

I’ve heard tons of great things about this place, unfortunately none of them from recent experiences. I placed a large catering order from them several months ago for work. From the ordering perspective they were very helpful and friend. From a food quality stance though, not so much. It looked very tasty but everyone except the people who didn’t eat complained about how bland the food was. Last month I thought I’d give them another try so and took my girlfriend there for lunch. We were very disappointed in the plainness of the food combined with the small portions. I don’t know what they used to do to generate so many great comments about their food, whatever it was, they aren’t doing it any more.

This hole-​in-​the-​wall has the best chicken fettuccine Alfredo that I have ever tasted. I’m sure that there is something else that I would like, but I get this every time because it’s so good!

Really disappointing visit. The place was completely empty at dinner time, and while they were advertising pizza by the slice all day long, they told me it would take 30 minutes to get a slice. It doesn’t take 30 minutes to make a pizza. It seemed pretty clear they had stopped doing slices and only had sandwiches and call ahead pizza orders. Tucked away in a corner of a strip mall next to a Hobby Lobby, I’d bet things aren’t going that well overall.

THEE best pizza ever!!! Just like Boston pizza. Genos has the only pizza that I look forward to eating on purpose. I have not liked pizza since I moved to KY, but Genos IS the real deal! Prices are great too. I would pay whatever they wanted to eat this pizza. The spinach calzone is also fantastic.

I recently discovered this new deli. They have the best italian sub. I have tried several of their other sandwiches, all were good, but the classic italian is still my favorite. They slice the meats for your sandwich when you order. how’s that for fresh?
They also have this yummy couscous salad. Not sure of the dressing, but it has peppers, onions and cilantro. I ended up taking a serving home for later.
I hope you will give this new business a try!
