GREAT little hole in the wall. Had the chicken Jerusalem; very tender chicken and the garlicky sauce is great and full of flavor. The garlic bread knots actually have flavor and taste good, where bread knots served at most Italian places are an afterthought with no personality, these excel. Marinara is full flavored as well.

This is my first time ordering from Zukos. We dug into this pizza so fast that I almost forgot to take a picture so the pictures do not do it justice, but this pizza is quite possibly my new favorite... Meat Lovers & Mediterranean ... Loved both!

Great New York style pizza. The large is extremely big, 20 inch. Note they do not take credit or debit cards and there is a dollar upcharge for online banking (zelle)

Great little hole in the wall. The staff is very friendly and polite. We ordered a large meat lovers. It was delicious!!! Yes it it is cash or check only but it is said in so many reviews and it is clearly posted so don't see why people still give a one star rating. This will become our go to pizza spot from now on.

We went to Zuko's pizza place after a friend suggested it to us. We wanted to try a place that reminded us of our country pizza places, and we weren't disappointed. Flavors, portions, and prices are just perfect. We highly recommend this small spot for a delicious pizza and calzone, which is what we had.

Time and time again, Zuko’s has provided consistent quality pizza. Outshining other businesses is something they can do without fail, especially going above and beyond to make fresh, hot, filling meals that keep brining you back for more. We’ve been eating here for several years now and haven’t found a better pizza place. 10/10.

I've driven past this little hole in the wall place a ton and finally decided to stop in for a pizza. Glad I did cuz it was perfect. Well worth the 4 mile drive over to it. The garlic rolls were awesome too.

Zuko! A Rowlett Classic, still going strong. I grew up enjoying Zuko when we lived in Rowlett. Now that my office is in S. Garland, if I’m ever needing to get a Pizza, there’s no question where I’m getting it from, as it’s a short drive across the lake. I haven’t gotten pictures of all the pizzas from here, but the previous two have been a meat lovers (shown in the photos). It’s the perfect pizza, every time! They now let you pay by Zelle, or Cash App! Otherwise, it’s cash.
