A pizza place, right next to downtown, that doesn't deliver is a bad business model and just plain lazy.

Many rave reviews and a few recommendations later I found myself seated in a vinyl booth at Broadway Pizza taking in the "saloon" scenery. I ordered a "NY style" and eagerly bit into my slice. At this point I did not know whether to laugh or cry. Did they replace my crust with chewy cardboard? Did they head over to their local supermarket for some half price spaghetti sauce and flavorless cheese? My tastebuds were crying and all I could do was guzzle down my beverage to get the remains of chewy, ill tasting, food particles out of my mouth. One word of advise Broadway Pizza, please do not slander the wonderful reputation of NY pizza and take it off your menu! Your local grocers freezer is gourmet next to your sad rendition of "pizza"

Pros: none

Cons: bad pizza!!!!

We tried this place after getting a recommendation from someone. Very disappointed in the NY style crust. We think it was frozen. It tasted bland and chewy...nothing like NY pizza. We also asked for garlic in it and could taste it at all. Go if you want the same ho-hum midwest pizza, but don't expect anything better than a slice from the local quicky mart.

Pros: No waiting to be seated

Cons: Taste of pizza

I have never been disapointed with the combo pizza "EDDIE" special and I have ordered it at several locations. Best pizza in town, bar none.

The Maple Grove BW pizza had unprofessional servers. Waited in line FOREVER and never was asked to be seated nor greeted. Seems to me like all the servers were young high school kids with no manners. There were ONLY 1 cook on a busy Saturday night. Also heard the Cook wispering to the other servers "go home (customers), we're running out of food." That's just RUDE!!! People like that shouldn't even be qualified to work in nice restuarant's like BW pizza.

Pros: pizza

Cons: Service, waiting

I always order take out. This pizza is the second best in the twin cities (to Savoy in St. Paul.) Take out cashier is great and always seems to be the same guy. Would be IDEAL if they offered delivery services!!

Pros: Pizza, Service

Cons: No delivery option

I have relocated to NY and everytime I come home, I have half of a thin crust medium supreme pizza from Broadway Pizza. It does not get any better! People think in NY with all the Pizzerias that I would find better but trust me... if you like bland, no seasoned, so much grease you fry fish in it type pizza, then go to NY. If you want fresh, seasoned, crispy thin, even take home a non-baked one for when you are in the mood and don't want to drive to get one type of Pizzeria, then RUN straight to Broadway Pizza! :-)

Pros: Food, Ambience, Staff

Cons: Are you kidding?

Apparently, Broadway pizza has fallen victim to budget cuts!!!! The cheese on the large classic deluxe pizza that I bought was used so sparingly, I could count up the other ingredients from a distance. This pizza was horrible ... not at all like I remember from high school. Eating Broadway Pizza was a weekly event. Every football game for sure. This pizza was a shameful, deceitful, play on a wonderful memory. Never again.

Pros: thin crust

Cons: hardly any cheese, crust not crisp, expensive

Broadway Pizza has the best pizza in the twin cities! I especially love the thin crust - but ALL their pizza is great! It is a shame they don't deliver, but the pizza is worth the trip!

Pros: great food, reasonably priced
