For $22, expected a little more. Delving for basil and mozzarella like it’s from a uranium reserve. Ordered a side and they charged me but didn’t bring to table. Said they were out... but still charged for it. Lovely they automatically add gratuity before serving food. From the time I ordered and after eating, actually hungrier than when I started. Totally lame. Eating elsewhere next time.

This is a great up and coming location. You'll find this restaurant in an old rail station along with several other small shops and local restaurants. It has a similar feel to the distillery district with half the crowd. Rise up has great hand tossed pizza with a fluffy, crispy, and tasty crust along with a bright tomato sauce and any flavor of toppings you want. Small place with a friendly atmosphere.

Listen 👏 This is the best pizza in Lexington hands down. I am OBSESSED with pizza and this is one of my all-time faves. Quality The artisanal quality and perfect selection of ingredients is apparent in every bite. If you like sourdough, are particular about sauce, and appreciate creative combinations - then you will love Rise Up. Creativity I've been eating here for years and have never tried a combo I didn't like. Even when I'm weary, I try it out and am proven wrong. The owner, Matty, is truly a master at combining flavors. Classics I also frequently order a classic pepperoni (10/10 for crispy peps!) and margherita (the ovalini is superb). Seriously the flavors at this place can't be beat! Pricing and Sizing To address the pricing and size complaints... this is a personal size, artisanal pizza restaurant. The size is perfect for one hungry person. If you're famished, add the garlic knots. The pricing for me is well worth it. I can't get a sourdough crust, wood fired pizza with exceptional toppings anywhere else, so heck yeah I'll pay the ~$15 gladly. (Includes gratuity and tax) If you'd rather get a decent pizza elsewhere for less $ that works too but it is not a knock to this place. Lunch special They have a lunch special for two topping pizzas for $12 so great option for those wanting to try it out at a lower price. Overall I can't get enough. Others can't get enough. There's clearly a cult following. Did I mention the sourdough crust? Join our cult 😇

Tried Rise Up for Lexington Pizza Week and was not disappointed! We got the vegetarian 'Pickle That' special. The sourdough crust was divine, the ratio of toppings was perfect, and the smoked chili powder took the whole meal over the top. We will definitely return to this local gem!

Went there with a couple friends a few weeks ago. Pizza was really yummy. Price is what we expected for this style. The selections were nice. Some not so typical so they have an advantage there. I will definitely go again. Much better than the chains. (Protein,Margherita, Pepperoni)
