Y-Not Pizza & Lounge

Y-Not Pizza & Lounge has been a hometown favorite in New Palestine, Indiana since 2004—but the heart behind the restaurant goes back even further. After feeling burned out from his regular job, Tony decided it was time for a fresh start. When a friend offered him the chance to purchase the restaurant, he took a leap of faith, wanting to create something special for the community—a place where families could enjoy great food at prices that felt fair. And in true creative spirit, he named the restaurant Y-Not, a playful twist on his own name spelled backward.

From day one, Tony’s vision was simple: build an affordable, convenient, and genuinely welcoming place for people to gather. A place where neighbors recognize each other, where kids feel at home, and where every meal tastes like it was made with pride. Over the years, that dream has grown into a local staple known for hearty pizzas, wings, sandwiches, salads, nachos, stromboli, burgers, and all the comfort foods that bring people together.

What makes Y-Not Pizza truly special is that it’s family-owned and operated, built on values of community, hospitality, and consistency. As the restaurant continues to serve New Palestine and the surrounding areas, that small-town heart remains at the center of everything they do.

So whether you’re stopping in for a slice, gathering with family, or grabbing your go-to comfort meal, Y-Not Pizza & Lounge welcomes you to enjoy great food, warm service, and the familiar charm of a place built by—and for—the community.
