Our Pizza Is Out Of This World

Our Pizza Is Out Of This World •

For decades, Zeno’s has been serving up thin, crispy, square-cut slices in the heart of Marshalltown - and a whole lot of memories to go with them. Around here, we serve food that feels like home. 

ABOUT
ZENO’S

In 1952, something new arrived in Marshalltown: pizza. The thin, crispy, Chicago tavern style kind - cut into squares and meant to be shared. 

A few years later, Elmer “Zeno” Kluck put his name on the door and a local legend was born. For more than 70 years, Zeno’s has been more than a restaurant. It’s been:

First dates and rehearsal dinners

Post-game celebrations

Birthday parties and retirement toasts

Friday nights turned into lifelong memories

After more than 5 decades of Kluck family ownership, Terry and Jan passed the torch in 2013 to local owners who knew exactly what this place means to downtown Marshalltown. Our promise has always been simple:

Keep the pizza the same

Protect the character

Honor the history

Because you don’t reinvent an institution - you care for it. 

Cheers, 

Michele & Aaron Buzbee
