Joe Bologna's is a local legend and is a rite of passage for any Lexingtonian. After living in Lexington for eight years, I finally decided to experience Joe Bologna's for the first time. I was very disappointed.
I ordered their pizza and was surprised at how flavorless and bad it was. My pizza was coupled with their "famous breadstick" which was I would liken to simple flour and water mixed and baked. It was hard as a rock and utterly flavorless.
I am aware that my opinion is colored by this one experience with two menu items, but it was so terribly bad that I can't fathom trying Joe Bologna's again.
The only positive is that the restaurant location is unique; it is inside of an old church.
