50 Best Pizza Restaurants in Minneapolis

“All I can say is wow. It's not often that a restaurant totally exceeds my expectations. But it did. Food was amazing. The Korean BBQ pizza was so good and the cheesy rice cakes were amazing. Service was outstanding. I highly recommend.“

“Outstanding food and drink. The service was excellent. They do offer valet parking and are able to provide for groups of 6 or more.“

“This place legitimately has THEEE best pizza in my opinion. They have great options to select from but they’re also great at custom pizzas! There’s been a few times I’ve been a little disappointed when ordering delivery because customizing seems to just add dollar after dollar even if you remove items but I’ve called in and *Sabrina* is a gem! Every time she’s taken care of me to make sure my pizza still comes out great and for a fair deal. Seriously the kindness people work there so if you love your pizza as much as I do, make sure to take care of them!!

Dietary restrictions: They’re very accommodating and will make customized pizzas if requested“

“Warning up front: they only have a couple picnic tables out front to sit at, otherwise expect to the take your pizza to go.

The pizza is excellent here. The crust is some of the best I've ever had. Light, crunchy, and the flavor is spot on. I had a simple sausage pizza and the sausage and cheese are both very good. The sauce is classic Neapolitan and the spices used, while simple, were well balanced. My only note is cheese/topping slippage. The cheese wants to come with on every bite. That being said, the crust and sauce is so tasty I would gladly eat a slice with no cheese or toppings.

I also had a raspberry lemonade. $6 for a bottle of lemonade is expensive, but dam if that isn't the best lemonade I've had.“

“The pizza is pretty good and I would go back again. My wife and I had a pepperoni and jalapeno pie. The crust was pretty good, I would like a slight bit more chew to it, but flavorful none the less. We really liked the sauce as it wasn't too much and very flavorful. Oddly enough the pepperoni didn't have a lot of flavor, but it had a good bite through and was a good size.

They have a good local beer selection and the atmosphere was nice with a section for pickup and dine in. You can also see them making the pies.

The service was fast, attentive, and she boxed the leftover pie up for us.

Parking is a bit of a challenge, so be prepared to drive around to find a spot on adjacent streets.“

“Excellent food and service!“

“I love this place! Very friendly workers. My daughter is 9 and she enjoys the variety like dad.“

“I love Red Wagon. I’ve been going there for years but after my recent visit I don’t think I’ll return. Sadly, they took the only pizza and salad I ever order off the menu. I tried 2 other pizzas and a different salad and all 3 were disappointing. I’m not a picky eater but you like what you like. I understand the need to update menu items to keep things fresh but even the Waitress informed us that it was a bad decision to remove both of the items that we came for. All that aside it’s still a beautiful place with a great atmosphere. I’ll miss it. RIP “The Nash”“

“I came here for the first time last week and I am so happy I decided to dine. The staff was absolutely phenomenal. Cyrus our waitstaff was very attentive, knowledgeable and outgoing. He explained everything in depth and provided recommendation based on our interest. He inquired about our dietary restrictions as well which made his recommendations even more personable. I ordered the sweet potatoe korokke, maitake karaage and the mentaiko lumache. My partner ordered the pork gyoza and the squid ink peppardelle. Everything we ordered arrived prompt and was absolutely phenomenal! The sweet potatoe korokke and the maitake karaage was my favorite due to the flavour, presentation as well as the texture. I enjoy crunchy yet flavourful dishes. I also LOVED the mentaiko lumache, it was very creamy and light. I would absolutely return as this is one of my favorite restaurants. Highly recommend due to service and the quality of the food.“

“Just picked a place off of yelp and let me tell you… I was thrilled! It was crazy good and I need 1000%more of this!“

“Excellent food and service!“

“Was able to sneak in Sunday without a wait. There is usually a line, lots of energy in the room and delicious bakery items. Always fresh bread, soups, and hot drinks. However, I always stop in for the biscuit sandwich. The size, flavor and variety of toppings is perfect for brunch. The chai is just sweet and spicy enough. at times overly spicy. I still enough sipping. The room is usually noisy, the cars zoom by on Nicollet Ave and the owner usually working and serving right along with the staff. The bakery is delightful. So many unique flavors and mixtures of textures. From croissants, to cardamom twists, graham crackers, cookies and more. An array of figurines for children to play with while they wait. My mother enjoys their weekly pizza night. I haven't tried the french toast yet, the guest me ordered, and the strawberries looked delicious. Soups and sandwiches; the menu has great variety and something for everyone.
A true South Minneapolis community haven.“

“Can I give EATO, ten stars? Food - the best I have had in years; the service - flawless, perfect mix of professional and friendly; the atmosphere - welcoming and casual. I would not have changed a thing! I had a large group of people coming into Minneapolis from all over the country and a few local friends recommended EATO for the group farewell dinner. A few weeks ago I stopped in and talked to the manager, Jason, and he suggested a half restaurant buyout for the group with tables over by the bar. (Excellent idea, it worked out great!) Then he connected me with Chloe who helped me pick menu items so my guests could choose a salad course and an entree course from five options, with optional protein additions, she also printed out custom menus to welcome my guests. Super easy process, and Chloe had great suggestions,. When we arrived Jesse, Connor, and Chloe were ready and waiting at the bar to handle the group of 30 people, serving them drinks with fresh flowers in them, special tap beers, and bubbly Prosecco. I think part of the group also had some killer Old Fashions they raved about. Connor and Jesse were our servers and they moved through the tables taking orders, delivering the food, filling water glasses, getting drinks, etc. The table service was impeccable, these guys know how to treat guests like honored family. (What more could you ask for?!) I don't know the chef's name, but kudos to the kitchen. The food came out quickly, and was plated beautifully. Without fail, every guest told me that their meal was fantastic. I personally had the beet salad (yum!) and the chicken Parmesan. It was the best chicken parm I have ever had, not kidding. Thank you, EATO, for helping me put on a wonderful event! - Libby Huebner, corporate event planner“

“We've been to Lynette a few times now and always leave happy. The atmosphere is warm and comfortable. The restaurant is kid-friendly but it's also a great date night spot. A few standouts for us have been the pizzas, carrots, hummus, dry rub wings, fries, and the apple crisp, which was one of the best desserts we've had in recent memory.“

“Great pizza (possibly the best crust in the twin cities?) and good atmosphere. Always enjoy eating outside here.

Kid-friendliness: We eat here once a month or so with our kids (ages 3 and 5) --always good. You can also ask to sit in the turtle bread seating area“

“My wife and I have been to La Mesa a handful of times and have never been disappointed( including our second date, its a great date spot). La mesa is a hidden gem tucked away in the neighborhood with a great outdoor space in the summer. In my opinion, they have some of the best pizza in the city The corn pizza is my favorite and the weekly special last week was slow roasted pork and chimichurri sauce which was delicious. Great place, good service, and nice atmosphere and would recommend to anyone looking for a fun date night or something different than a bar and grill. I just recommend to a co worker and she really enjoyed it!“

“Outstanding Service! Pizza and salads are absolutely amazing!!“

“Very nice place. The pizza was excellent and our server was friendly and attentive!!“

“This is my favorite little restaurant to eat in every time I visit Minneapolis. The food is always sooo good and will fill you all the way up. Very homely and beautiful paintings daced across the walls and ceilings. Truly beautiful and absolutely delicious. I'm mid eating my pasta just to put this review up. I highly, highly recommend this place to anyone wanting a good meal that will have you ready for a food coma when you're done. & the raspberry cider is soo good. I'm so happy I got to fall at the graces of the lovely staff and cooks.“

“This was our first experience at Tono and we were pleasantly surprise:) the large Caesar salad was enough for 3 of us and we had some left over still. The cheesecake was as big as my head, definitely going to have leftovers. The truffle fries were tasty and the pizza was pretty good too. The Spicy Tono and the regular pepperoni pizza look pretty much the same but the taste was the tell. The spicy is less spicy than you’d expect. The price wasn’t too bad either. Our family of 4 ate for around $80 bucks. The volume inside the restaurant was rather loud and busy… it was during peak hours soooo they get a pass on that“

“Pizza is worth the high price, but they add graruity automatically to your bill.

Now, if it was a bad experience, then I'd have a problem with that. But the issue is everytime I went in there I had planned on tipping more, but since I realised they already added gratuity it felt kinda sneaky to not mention that prior to service, so I just stuck with the number they chose. Save me a few extra bucks, I suppose, but took away from their employees. It's a well off neighborhood, not the ghetto, so I'd have to imagine that the tips there can't be so bad that they ended up charging an automatic gratuity. Either way, pizza is decent.“

“Great pizza napoletana and a lovely staff. We have been patrons for over 20 years. Our family is from Campania and having Punch is a wonderful reminder of home. Grazie mille!!!“

“First time dining at Punch Pizza. Easy to order, friendly service. The atmosphere was relaxing and calming. The order was brought out in a timely manner. The pizza was delicious and the salad was crisp & leafy with the trimmings. Definitely would dine here again.

Parking: Plenty of parking with other stores around for other shopping.“

“Classic thin crust pizza like no other. An institution in Columbia Heights second to none.“

“great people great food Halal food & pizza“

“Our server Rusty was SO awesome! Attentive but not overbearing, really friendly, genuine, and prompt. He took great care of us.

The barbeque chicken pizza was my absolute favorite! We all thought it was beyond delicious and we will definitely be back. Phenomenal location, too!“

“Last night we had an incredible "foodie" experience! Have you ever been to Pizza Shark in Uptown? If you haven't, you need to try it! The wood fired gourmet pizzas are amazing.. the chicken wings rival the best wings that we have ever eaten anywhere.. the dessert pizza with a crispy crust Nutella, sliced almonds and fresh fruit was to die for. Frankly, My son and I could have just have eaten the candied bacon and smothered French fries all night. This just scratches on the surface of the full chef inspired menu. The service was exceptional! Wow! We can't wait to go again!“

“If I want to order pizza, I always order from this store. The manager.. I think his name is Staz (I am sorry if I mispelled it). He is so nice and so friendly. If I preorder, my pizza is always hot and right out of the oven as I am going in to pick it up. The staff are all friendly and welcoming. I always order on the weekends as my kids go to a nearby tutoring center. A while ago, I ordered a very large order and my card thought it was a fraud and declined the entire order. Staz the manager called me early the next day to make sure that I still wanted the order and to let me know that they hadn't received the payment. I just thought that was very thoughtful of him and really appreciated them still taking my large order because I had a lot of kids I needed to feed that day for a party. Overall, the store is clean, organized, friendly and service is fast. I would highly recommend you order your pizza from here.

Parking: Plenty of parking. And there is street parking available too.

Kid-friendliness: There is a little kid area where kids can watch the pizza being made. My kiddo immediately runs to that area everytime we are there. And the staff are so nice; sometimes they will explain what they are doing to the kiddos if they aren't busy.

Wheelchair accessibility: The store is big enough and people on wheelchairs can access easily.“

“Went in the afternoon on a Thursday. Very pleasant, weather helped with the ambiance. The baked ziti was good. I know the pizzas are good from before.

Parking: I think it shares the Lunds parking lot when entering from Cedar Ave. The deck has an entrance gate from another parking lot that looks like you can access from the side street.“

“Had pizza delivered last night and was very happy with both pizzas. We ordered a gluten-free hamburger, and a vegetable with sausage pizza Fresh and delicious. I ordered “DO NOT BURN”, Because I’ve had a little trouble with that in the past, and the pizzas last night were perfect! NE “

“I use yo order their pizza when they were on 54th Ave and 34 Ave in South Minneapolis. I am so happy to find this website. Do you still deliver or did you stop that, especially in Ne Minneapolis Minnesota“

“The pizza and house salad are absolutely amazing. The only thing that isn't the greatest is that they don't answer their phone, and there is no option to order online. So you have to actually go down to there and order, and if they're busy, it could take a while.“

“We saw this place as we were walking by and looked it up to see what they had. The pizza slices looked good, and the specials are a bargain. We got the lunch special-2 slices and a drink or 1 slice, salad, and drink. I had the cheese pizza and it was delicious. I love genuine, NY style pizza, and this was it. Huge slices, thin crust, good balance of crispy on bottom, and very thin sauce. They had hot honey, balsamic vinegar, and hot chili oil. It's a good deal and a great view if you sit along the windows.

Vegetarian options: Cheese, Margherita, veggie“

“I got the garlic parmesan boneless wings and they were fantastic!! The sauce was very buttery and flavorful. The breading was crispy, and the chicken was hot and juicy. The man that was at the counter was very polite. No photo because I ate it all to quick.“

“Everyone was friendly from the moment we walked in. Our waitress, Taylor, was attentive, and had great recommendations. The food was delicious, as were the drinks! We will absolutely be back.“

“My wife and I had the welcome party for our wedding here and Halina and the rest of the Little Tomato crew were excellent! The food was fresh and delicious, and they did a fantastic job accommodating one of our gluten free guests. The space was perfect for mingling with everyone and there was space for the kids to play games outside. I can’t recommend this place enough for an event, or even just a delicious pizza!“

“Just picked a place off of yelp and let me tell you… I was thrilled! It was crazy good and I need 1000%more of this!“

“Ive been coming here for about 10 years.
The pizza is good and the owners are nice.

But every now and then I get annoyed.
Employee taking my order is wearing earbuds. I was the only one there for an early lunch and my pizza order came out wrong. Dont know if he misheard me or what.

The other thing is - I would love to tip, but Im not tipping 18-20% for over-the counter pizza service. Which were the 2 out of 3 default options. The third one being 0%, which is the one Im picking over the 18/20 options.

Maybe customize the options a little bit? Have 15/18% options instead? Just a thought.“

“I love it here! The food and the customer service!!“

“I love this pizza! Delivery is usually fast and friendly. Pick up in store is friendly and helpful. Old school neighborhood pizza place.

Vegetarian options: My girlfriend is a vegetarian, and she gets the Artichoke Deluxe or The Garden. I also noticed that they have gluten-free options and vegan cheese.

Dietary restrictions: Noticed that they have gluten-free options and vegan cheese.“

“Called for Delivery of Medium-Sized Rosemary Bianca pizza. Although it was pouring rain & slightly outside their delivery area, the nice gentleman taking my order agreed to deliver it for me. This pizza was “what dreams are made of” & “a party in your mouth”. Regretfully, I live in Phoenix AZ area, so won’t be able to enjoy this again until I visit next year, but my local Minneapolis family will be ordering this pizza again soon, on-site. Thanks so much for a great experience!“

“My family came to the Mall of America for back to school shopping. Ordered pizza, cheesy breadsticks, and mac n cheese bites for dinner…and all 5 of us agree!!!!! PERFECTION! Great job, staff:) Received our order via delivery 13 minutes early! Mac n cheese bites dipped in marinara was shockingly delectable! Thanks!!“

“This is the real deal! I can't find a better New York style pizza around. It's so good I drive in 35 minutes from the Northern suburbs just to get it! The bonus is that the staff is great! The pizza and bread sticks, though, there's nothing as good as they are!“

“The pizza is always amazing, but be sure to get there right when they open when the pizza is fresh and there is a large selection. Between 12-2, it’s crazy busy.
The pizza tastes great, with an excellent crust, but don’t bother with the cheesesteak sandwiches. Mine was oily and the chopped steak had chunks of chewy (not in a good way) and rubbery pieces that weren’t appetizing.
The pizza is way better, available immediately and is worth the price. Try them out if you haven’t already!

Vegetarian options: Several of the pizzas by the slice were vegetarian. They change every day, but sometimes there’s Mac n cheese pizza, pickle pizza, margarita, or even trusty cheese pizza. All of which are tasty.

Parking: This location is on the Skywalk in downtown, so parking will be very hard to come by. But it’s a great location if you work nearby or live off the skywalk.“

“The food here was surprisingly amazing. Patio is dog friendly so that's always a major plus. I got the bahn mi sandwich with a side of onion rings. It was perfect!! Only negative I can think of is that 4 onion rings is a $4 upcharge - kinda steep but I'll let it slide because it was just that good.“

“This Davannis is definitely my favorite. The staff is always friendly and the food is always well-prepared. The restaurant was remodeled in recent years and the finishings give it the classic pizza joint feel. Room for a family outing, or you can even book their party room if you need more space.“

“Ok this is a great pizza joint. Located in the heart of NorthEast Minneapolis right across from Surdyk's Liquor & Cheese Shop Some of the best fast casual food in the Twin Cities. The staff is friendly and the service is great and the FOOD is top notch. Check it out.“

“I love Pizza Luce, this location is big and comfy. The staff were so nice and answered any of my questions.“

“Great pizza, great employees“
