Why: Juliano’s Pizzeria is one of Clark County’s oldest pizza restaurants. Serving pizza, salad, and sandwiches for more than 26 years, Juliano’s has earned a place in the heart of many residents who call it their favorite. The restaurant is full service with room enough for the whole family and an atmosphere that offers plenty to keep the kids occupied while you wait for your meal.
Atmosphere: Juliano’s has the feel of an old-time pizza parlor that has morphed through the decades. Inside are green-check tablecloths, a selection of arcade games, trinket-dispensing machines, neon signs, and an assortment of other random items, which include a disco ball and a rainbow of large teddy bears hung from the ceiling. There’s also a collection of classic rock album covers worked into the decor. A large-screen TV provides a modern source of entertainment. Although the restaurant shows its age in the elements of the decor, it is probably as fresh and clean as the day it opened.
What I tried: I had the most popular diner’s choice, the Hurricane pizza, as well as the drunken Hawaiian pizza, which is the runner-up. I tried the deadsticks and the Garden Salad.
If the pizza of your dreams is piled high with so many toppings that you have to re-top it every time you take a bite, Juliano’s will make your dreams come true. Both of the pizzas I ordered had copious amounts of toppings. The Hurricane, loaded with pepperoni, salami, onions, Canadian bacon, mushrooms, green peppers, black olives, beef and sausage, is a meat lover’s pizza, for sure. The meat outweighed the vegetables, but there were enough vegetables to break up the monotony of so much meat. Of the two pizzas, this one was a meal in itself and could easily satisfy a hearty appetite.
