What People Are Saying About Davanni's Pizza & Hot Hoagies
Featured Review

In Short – The numerous locations are clean but not fussy. You can get in and out fast, but it's alright to linger. Order at the walk-up counter, grab your pebbled plastic pop glass and head for a table to wait for your name to be called. Hand-tossed, thin-crust and deep-dish pizzas with rich tomato sauces feature traditional toppings. A variety of hoagies utilize pizza ingredients in creative ways (pepperoni in the club, peppers and olives in the veggie).
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- Try the addictive garlic-cheese bread, made with the hoagie buns and a thick carpet of cheese.
Davanni's is the BEST pizza I've ever HAD!!!!
by moehowardisgod at Citysearch
I'm originally from Illinois, and I went to Minneapolis in 2000 for vacation. I tried their pizza for the first time, and was absolutely BLOWN AWAY by how good it was (actually was the best I ever had...and trust me, I've eaten a LOT of pizzas!). I came bact to Minneapolis in 2004, and immediately came BACK to Davanni's and it was STILL as good as the first time I had it. LOL, me and my wife ordered it another 3 times when we were in Minneapolis, and if we ever come back to town, we'll go there again!
- Pros: the PIZZA, and the service!!!!
- Cons: NONE
Great Pizza, Dynamic Service

I went to Davanni's upon seeing its number 3 rating in the Citypages 2002 ratings. I requested something not necessarily "on the menu". I went with pepperoni, canadian bacon, and garlic. Garlic wasn't listed, but I really enjoy garlic on pizza. Usually, pizza places use some canned overly sweet preserved garlic. Davanni's in Golden Valley chopped up the garlic fresh and made perhaps the best pizza I've had. Their deep dish Chicago style is top notch.
- Pros: Great Pizza!, Great Service!, Inexpensive
- Cons: Franchise Pizza
Unique combo of great quality & fast
by Cahersiveen at Citysearch
Excellent Pizza. My fave pizza is the veggie deep dish pizza. Garlic Lovers: Try white sauce instead of red for interesting variety.
- Pros: Usually Quick, Top Quality, Healthy
- Cons: Often Noisy, Crowded during rush, At times a long wait
Absolutely the best!!!

Without question, Davanni's has the best pizza hands down. The thing that makes their pizza "rise" above the others, is the crust. Secondly, the red sauce is extremely above average. No heartburn from this pizza. Also, try the "White Pizza". The olive oil and garlic sauce on this pizza is truly an experience. If you haven't tried Davanni's, do so asap. You will not be disappointed.
- Pros: good value, great taste
Awesome
