Johnny Sortino's
Johnny Sortino's is a pizzeria in Omaha serving pizza made with fresh ingredients and baked in traditional style. The restaurant has multiple dining areas, a bar section, and TVs on the walls, where customers order at a counter and find their own seating.
The restaurant opened in 1965 and has remained a steady part of Omaha's community since then. Over the decades it kept its traditional pizza recipe unchanged while becoming a reliable gathering spot for locals.
The name comes from the founder, who brought his Italian roots into every pizza oven. Today it remains a gathering place where families and friends sit down together, creating memories over shared meals and casual conversation.
The restaurant operates on a self-service model where you order at the counter and find your own table. Visit during off-peak hours if you prefer faster service, and expect busier times on weekends and during dinner hours.
Cheese is sold by the cup at the counter rather than provided free in shakers on tables. This unusual approach surprises some visitors and shows how the restaurant controls portions and pricing for each item separately.
