Remember last year about this time, news hit that Waldo's Pizza was making a comeback to Rochester, Minnesota?  This pizza joint was THE place to be back in the day and they had several locations in town.

"From Shakey’s to Waldo’s to Dooley’s. The golden years! Best pizza & best environment. Brings back great memories. Texting with a large group of HS buddies to meet & pound some slices! Can’t wait!" - Tom Knoepke

All of Rochester was buzzing because Waldo's had a plan - they were going to bring a food truck to our area last summer.  The food truck did show up in other locations but I never saw it in our neck of the woods.  But based on their latest post, their return to the Med City could still happen!

Best Pizza in Rochester, Minnesota?  Some Would Still Vote for Waldo's

I am fully aware of the fan base for Waldo's Pizza in Rochester98% of Americans love pizza and locally, your taste buds are missing Waldo's, I know.  The owners have also heard about it.

Last year, I spoke with one of the owners when news hit that a Waldo's Food Truck would be showing up in Rochester, Minnesota.  I  got to hear first-hand how people drive up to St. Cloud just to eat there.  They miss the pizza that much.

The original plan was to bring the new Waldo's Pizza truck to Rochester in 2024.
