Pizza is neither a great meal nor the worst for diabetes. All you need is some fact check and monitoring while ordering your pizza. Diabetics can opt for thin crust or skinny pizza at Pizza Hut and avoid the cheese topping to cut down on the excess fat and sodium. If you have diabetes, then ensure to check your portion size when you order a pizza. One or max. two slices are enough. You can also avoid meat if possible and go for wings as a meat option.

Chicken wings are often tempting but you must control and restrict yourself from ordering Traditional Honey BBQ Bone-in Wings as it can add up to your sugar levels if you eat too many. On average, a person orders or consumes six chicken wings pieces in a day.
Sides must be avoided at all costs especially if it's Bacon Cheddar Fries with Ranch Dipping Cup for its high sodium content. You must also avoid New York Style Cheesecake with Applesauce as dessert as one slice of this dessert item contains 86g sugar. Pizza Hut also offers other Italian dishes such as Pasta. However, you must skip Spaghetti with Meat Sauce and Meatballs and Garlic Bread as it is too high in sodium and sugar.

Food Suggestions to Maintain Cholesterol Level at Pizza Hut:
The quality of pizza here is on par with any of the other joints in the Oakland area such as Sorrento's or Antoon's. The prices are slightly higher, but it seems the pies here are made to order rather than being premade.

While walking back to work from Spice Island one day, I made a mental note to try more pizza places in Oakland. First on the list - Pizza Romano. I walked in around 11:10 and was one of their first customers. I saw them rolling out the dough for my XL pie, which is definitely a good sign. The pizza came out fresh and piping hot, and continued to be hot even after I carried it all the way back to work. I mention this because I have an undying love for cold pizza, but Pizza Romano is a dish best served fresh out of the oven. Here is the breakdown: Crust - texture was kind of blah and uninspired, but the dough was extremely wholesome - like eating a roll or something - and definitely tasted pretty fresh. Not crisp or chewy enough for me though. Cheese - best part of the pizza for sure. Lots of cheese, very chewy and stretchy, like one of those lame commercials where a family is sitting around the table on a Friday night instead of the reality that they are sitting in a living room watching awful TV while the parents get wasted on wine coolers and Canadian blended whiskey. However, the cheese quality slowly declined as the temperature of the slice went down, and I would describe this pizza as one that would be much less tasty when cold or leftover. Sauce - eh. It was red, some tomato flavor, some spices, but nothing that knocks my socks off. Price - ten bucks for a fresh-out-of-the-oven 18 inch, can't complain about that. Overall, this pizza was average. It would probably be best if eaten in the restaurant, but there isn't a whole lot to look at in the restaurant (no TVs, no bars, no other patrons) so make sure if you order it that your final destination is close. I would recommend Milanos over Romano if you're looking for a delicious and budget-conscious slice in Oakland.

My favorite pizza place on campus. Quick service, great prices, great pizza relative to the other places here on Pitt's campus. Dough is soft, crust is thick, sauce is amazing and just the right amount of cheese. Highly recommended when looking for good pizza in Oakland!

Five stars for a pizza place on campus. I give it five stars because they are reliable, have delivery, always nice, and the pizza is pretty good. I can't complain! Every time I have gone there I have really enjoyed it. Your typical pizza joint.

Placed order and never delivered. Waited 2.5 hours and Pizza Romano stopped answering the phone? Sometimes, could hear girls talking on other end, unaware that they had answered. Only successful because it's in a city; terrible business and quality.

Below average, same exact menu and food as every other Turkish owned shop in Pittsburgh. Sauce out of a can, waxy cheeze, Cellones preservative filled bread, they bake the steak blah, typical frozen apps. There is better pizza on either side at Sorrentos or Milanos.

3.5 stars. Competent pizza shop food at pretty reasonable prices. The pizza itself is based on a doughy, bready, soft crust complimented by tangy, herby pizza sauce. The cheese is salty and the good kind of rubbery. It reminds me of Little Caesar's almost, but with decidedly better ingredients. It's a big improvement from nearby Antoon's or Sorrento's. Any fare based off these ingredients works well. In particular, their cheesy breadsticks are absolutely delicious and are my go-to option when in the mood for carb laden food. The other stuff on the menu, such as hoagies, wings, and sides, is done pretty decently. Their buffalo sauce in particular isn't strictly a buffalo sauce, but it's tangy, spicy, and bold. As such, their buffalo chicken hoagie is one of my favorites in Oakland. Additionally, both their standard variety fries and buffalo fries are crispy, well-seasoned, and flavorful. Killer student specials cut prices significantly, so Romano isn't too tough on the wallet. This isn't destination eating, but if you're nearby it's worth a try.

I don't know why I keep running into bad luck with pizza shops in Pittsburgh, but it's really disheartening. Pizza Romano usually has a decent veggie sub that I order when my husband is craving wings and pizza. Apparently though, this time that we ordered, they failed to tell us that their menu had changed. Instead of a medley of vegetables, they gave me goopy "eggplant", soggy tomato, cheese, and some type of liquid that had made bread into soup. I wouldn't even attempt to eat it. I called and THEN they notified me of the change. No big deal... but their new menu stated that there should be eggplant, tomato, zuchinni, and mushrooms on it. I saw no mushrooms or zuchinni. Also their garlic bread was weak and disgusting and tiny. Not worth it. I am really disappointed with our experience. Needless to say, we won't be ordering from there again. I just hope we can find a restaurant that can provide quality when we're craving some delivery.
