About Jet's Pizza —
Passion on Every Slice
Jet's pizza has been serving bold, hand-crafted jets pizza to the Lexington community since day one. We're more than a restaurant — we're a gathering place built on quality ingredients, genuine hospitality, and a love for great food.
A Family Recipe, A Community Tradition
Jet's pizza was born from a simple belief: that great pizza starts with respect for the craft. Our founders opened the first location in Lexington, KY with a handful of family recipes, a stone-deck oven, and an unwavering commitment to quality. What began as a neighborhood favorite quickly grew into a destination for pizza lovers across the United States.
Every Jets pizza we make uses locally sourced produce, hand-stretched dough, and house-made sauces prepared fresh each morning. We believe the best meals bring people together — and that's exactly what we set out to do every single day.
Fresh, Local Ingredients
We partner with Kentucky farmers to source seasonal produce, ensuring every bite reflects the richness of our region.
Stone-Deck Oven Perfection
Our signature stone-deck ovens reach 700°F, delivering the perfect crisp crust that keeps customers coming back.
Rooted in Community
From sponsoring local school events to hosting neighborhood nights, Jet's pizza is proud to give back to Lexington.
