About us Mazzios Italian Eatery It was 1961. Alan Shepard was the USA’s first man in space. Dion’s “Runaround Sue” topped the music charts. Volkswagen’s funny little car invaded America in droves. And a young school teacher opened a small, one-man pizza restaurant in Tulsa, Oklahoma, which was to be the birthplace of the growing, dynamic Mazzio’s LLC of today. That original restaurant—named The Pizza Parlor—delighted many Tulsans with the very first pizza they ever ate. The school teacher was Ken Selby, who ran his new business virtually alone and after a full day of teaching.
Family-friendly chain featuring pizzas, pastas, salads & subs, with a weekday lunch buffet.

The service was excellent and the atmosphere was very quiet and clean. I highly recommend visiting if in the mood for pizza.
Time, it seems, makes fools of us all.
This location seems emblematic of the problem. For some time, quality in service has slipped slowly towards apathy. On weekdays, one is pressed to find more than a few paltry slices of what was once a whole pie half an hour ago. The fountain drinks are coming out of ancient machines, barely working within tolerances. The salad is still good, though one wouldn’t be crazy for noticing small corners getting cut here and there. Briefly, at the beginning of 2025 or thereabouts, there was a new, different crew working the store, and all seemed to be set on improving. Alas, they’re gone again, and things are back to the slow, inevitable slide towards oblivion.
It would be easy to say rising costs and continued demand for profit take their toll. But you get the sense that the ownership is simply limping along. I certainly don’t expect employees at any food service business to break out into Disney-level singing numbers, but one feels more like a burden upon staff than a guest, a barely-tolerated presence that is necessary only to get paychecks cut.
Mazzio’s pizza is tasty, certainly, if you can get it. Those thin crusts and generous, well-seasoned toppings make for a pizza I personally rate slightly higher than Domino’s.
But if the buffet is a culinary experiment doomed to failure (Pizza Hut got rid of theirs, Pizza Inn is long gone from this area), why not admit failure, and refocus on a better in-house experience? Even just ordering a pizza for dine-in with a salad bar is still better, by far, than places like Little Ceasar’s.
All this is capped off by the solemn, depressing sounds of Christian music. I already feel bad dining under depressing conditions; Christian music tends towards bleakness.
All in all, go down the street to Lost Pizza. No, it’s not a buffet for the offspring to gorge themselves on. But at least you don’t wish for death by the end of the meal.
Farewell, Mazzio’s. We didn’t appreciate how good you were until you were on life support…
