1st stop was for a large pizza - supreme that was DELICIOUS. 2nd stop was the following day was for two slices of cheese pizza. He made it fresh on the spot! Overall, he was extremely nice both days and the pizza was so delicious that we had to eat it two days in a row. I'm a 7 ingredient person when it comes to pizza and the simple cheese pizza was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend!! read more

My group of 7 tried to have dinner at another restaurant but the space couldn't accommodate us, so we walked over to DaVinci's Pizza and were pleasantly surprised when the place was empty. The gentleman behind the counter greeted us right away. DaVinci's is a fast casual restaurant. You order at the counter and they bring your food to your table. We had 4 children with us and they were able to pick something they liked - from individual slices to personal pizza. My son of course ordered a small pepperoni pizza and I got a spinach calzone. Although only one man was working, he was quick and efficient. We didn't wait long for our food and everything was cooked to order. The calzone was big, tasty and filling. I didn't get to try any of the pizzas, but everyone seemed to enjoy them. My son ate his entire pizza. The portions were great and the prices cheap. Because of location, they have homeless people pop in and out but the gentleman handled them pretty well. read more

Really great pizza, very personable owner/chef. Grazi! I would encourage all to visit read more

I ordered a cheese pizza and got a slice of bread with tomato sauce over the top. I then asked for additional cheese and he put on about a fourth of a handful of cheese on top of my pizza.. attached is a picture of the pizza, but you can see the additional cheese was added on top. The white spots you see on top of the pizza is the extra quarter of a handful added. The initial pizza had zero white on it. The worst pizza I have had, and that includes Pizza Hut. read more

DaVinci's PIzza - a pizza in a box - Pizza Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Sam is an incredible owner. Located in the Old City of Knoxville, one can enjoy a thin but perfect pizza. It does not have a lot of seating. Oftentimes, there will be music playing and something on the TV. Worth stopping by in the evening but even better before heading home for the night. Will always go to davincis if I am in that part of town! read more

DaVinci's serves excellent, "New Jersey style," pizza. While I have never had pizza, in New Jersey, I can say that DaVinci's pizza would be excellent, in all 50 states. I am not sure what part of their process sets their pizza apart from many of the excellent pizzerias that Knoxville is fortunate to have. I can tell you a few of the features. First off, DaVinci's crust is superior. They make a thin, chewy, stretchy crust that is crisp, but bends or folds without breaking. If I were to speculate, I imagine they either make sourdough pizza, or give the dough an extended rest; perhaps as 12hrs, or as long as 96hrs...or just making sourdough and givie it an extended rest. The sauce is also very good. It has a nice blend of spices and is very flavorful. It compliments the crust well. Last, their cheese is just right for the pizza. Normally I would always advocate for more cheese, on any pizza, but their pizza isn't very cheesy, and it is better for this. The cheese they use must be shredded fresh, on site. It also tastes like they incorporate an aged cheese, like Parmesan or Pecorino, on the pizza. I would recommend trying DaVinci's. If you just want to test it out, without committing to the whole pie, they do sell some slice pizza. read more

the owner is incredibly kind and accommodating . great pizza for a great price. He even threw in a couple of free drinks for me and buddies.

Best pizza I've ever had in my entire life. I would marry the blue apron man because of it. Chefs kiss. Don't change a thing. Open late night, so convenient. read more

A slice of the shore in Knoxville. Was very skeptical of the claim of Jersey pizza but it is spot on! Best pizza anywhere outside of NJ. Fantastic!! read more

Food is phenomenal, the calzones really hit the mark if you're looking for cheap, filling and delicious food. Service is on point, everyone is so friendly. Ambiance feels like it's straight out of a villa, love it! read more

True northern pizza. I'm from Philly and never found a pizza even close to northern pizza. You get that here. Perfectly crispy on the bottom and thin crust. Amazing pizza. read more

Don't be fool by this hidden, tucked away gem. Nothing fancy but the pizza will make you come back! Isn't that what really matters? Jersey based owners and the pizza is legit! We ordered the Greek and add pep! Small cozy environment nothing fancy! The beer is a little over priced but hey you can order your pizza to go and then get drinks in the nearby pubs! read more

My wife and I stopped by on a Saturday night to try this place. The service was friendly and the pizza came out promptly. We shared a small mushroom and sausage along with two bottled beers. The crust was very good, more on the thinner and well-done side, like I prefer. However, I thought the sauce and cheese were a little "off." It didn't seem like the usual fresh mozzarella I've had on pizzas before. It wasn't bad, but there are others in Knoxville I like better. read more

Yummy. One of My favorite's . Try a slice and see if you like it! I would only get two toppings because the pizza is so thin!

Food is delish. Service is delish. Pizza never disappoints. Great place to go after the bars or even for lunch

We absolutely love DaVinci's! The pizza is always fresh every time we go. The chicken is cooked on spot and not frozen. It's some of the best pizza that I have ever had. read more

DaVinci's PIzza - The Supreme Pizza (M) - Pizza Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Delicious pizza and a delightful couple who own the restaurant - very hospitable! And the restaurant has a great atmosphere, as well.

This place has a reputation for being a "drunk munchies" spot, but I love this pizza. I've eaten it drunk and sober and it's equally delicious. They also have a delicious ranch. It's definitely New York style pizza- thinner crust, large slices, light sauce. Just how I like it. This is my go to pizza spot. read more

I have to say I might have been a bit skeptical coming here since all the yelp reviews are fantastic. I walked into this place for lunch and was greeted by one of the workers. We ordered a Large Pizza with Pepperoni and Mushrooms. It was delicious. We also ordered 2 greek salads. They were simple but really great. I posted 2 pictures of our meal. I would give this place 4 and 1/2 stars. It was really good. We enjoyed a large pizza, 2 greek salads, and 2 canned cokes for $22. That is NYC prices on pizza which was very refreshing. I am a fan of Dazzo's as well but with prices like DaVinci's has, it is hard to beat. They are opening another location on Sutherland Avenue right across from West High School sometime next week. I will definitely return. The pizza was really tasty and made for great leftovers, the salads were simple but fabulous, and I loved that they had canned cokes. I prefer cokes in cans or in glass bottles, not plastic bottles. You should definitely check this place out because you get the bang for your buck and its good. Atmosphere might have been lacking a bit but when the food is good it doesn't matter to me. Hope you enjoy your pizza too! Cheers and Enjoy! read more

Love this place so much! The staff are always really nice. The pizza is good leftover & cold. The calzone is fluffy.

Best pizza I have ever had. I literally make the 2 hour trip just to come here. It has so much character, stays open late, and has great people working. The place is clean, fast, and delicious. There are so many great things I can say about this place! read more

DaVinci's PIzza - Pizza Near Me - Knoxville, Tennessee

Mmmmm...it's not that the pizza is bad or good, it's just not really authentic NJ/NY pizza. The crust is not thin and crispy and there's just too much dough around the edges. I want more cheese and sauce. This is a great late night spot near all the popular Old City bars however. So when you get the craving, chances are, they're open. read more

Dropped in this place while in old Town for lunch. My first impression was that the place was old and a little smokey, maybe from crust left in the oven, just my kind of place! We ordered a cheese pizza, BBQ chicken and a Hawaiian Calzone. My wife and kids had the pizzas and all said that the pizza was amazing and my wife mentioned that the crust was thin and light. My Calzone was the best I've ever tasted, the flavor of the crust and the lightness of it was like no other. I can't wait to return!! read more

When someone orders a slice, one would expect a full pizza to be made. Not the case here, one waits 20 minutes for a slice of pizza. Enjoy! read more

Bad. This pizza was bad. You know all the ways that pizza can be good? This was none of that.

Went in to grab a quick pizza and spoke with the order taker/Pizza maker and she was really nice. She gave me a great deal, large pepperoni for $9.43 taxes and all. She made it and put it in the oven, told me it would be ready in 7 minutes. Ahhhh....hot, fresh pizza! The pizza had a thin, chewy crust. It was very limp. The sauce was really good. The pizza was ok. Not the best. The price was great but, the pizza was very greasy from the pepperoni's. So overall, I rate it a 3 star- read more

Tried DaVinci's today for the first time. Like many Yelp users, I agree that it's one of the better pizza places in Knoxville. I really wanted to be able to give it five stars, but in my book, nobody has been able to dethrone Mangia (in Turkey Creek) for bragging rights of best thin-crust pizza. I will say that the place is a very authentic-looking Jersey-style pizza shop. It smells like pizza the minute you walk through the door. The maps and posters from New Jersey are a nice touch and they big chalkboard advertises "hoagies." Good stuff. I've got to go back to try a stromboli. If you're a Philly guy like me, you involuntarily start looking around for a cooler full of Yuengling to go with your pizza. No dice. Water and soda only. The Sunday and Monday night special is a large cheese pizza for $6. Two of us ate a large Hawaiian (8 good-sized slices) with two bottled drinks for $12 out the door and two slices leftover for lunch tomorrow. That's some cheap eats. Dinner was on the table in less than 10 minutes and it was hot and delicious. Given that they deliver to UT's campus and the surrounding areas, I have a feeling I'll definitely be patronizing DaVinci's again in the near future. read more

If I could give a "0 star" rating I would. There is nothing authentic about this "Jersey" pizzeria. The pieces are tiny and the individual slices are kept under a heating lamp in a little box - sorry folks....that ain't Jersey. The toppings are average at best, and the crust isn't particularly crisp. This is nowhere near Jersey or NYC pizza. This particularly disturbing, considering that the proprietor claims to be from Jersey. it's probably because he's from the Shore - they cater more towards tourists down there anyway. Pass on this filth DaVinci's is peddling. *P.S.* NO PIZZERIA KEEPS PIZZA UNDER A LAMP....unless you consider 7-11 a pizzeria... read more

This place rocks. The pizza is excellent , the staff is hilarious. I've been there several times for a slice or to pick up a pizza to go and I've never been disappointed. My wife and I stopped ordering from Papa John's, Pizza Hut, and Dominos when we found this place. read more

I've been in Knoxville for 19 years, and have heard about DaVinci's, but never thought to go by. One a time crunch last week, a colleague and I stopped in for a bite. The pizza's ok. It's definitely not the best in Knoxville, but it's by no means the worst. As far as the environment, DaVinci's is typically empty, and their hours are spotty. I feel like if they cleaned the place up a bit more, spent a bit more in improving what they have, it'd be a better place to go. As it stands, it's kinda divey, and you can get better pizza in Downtown Knoxville not a 5 minute walk away. read more

My favorite thing about this place are the guys who run it. Ever eaten in there? They're always chatting it up with some customer or delivery guy and I swear they always include you in the conversation! It makes me feel like buds with these NJ guys! The pizza is delicious. It's nothing fancy, nothing unexpected, but it's all good. The sauce is wonderful. I've loved everything I've gotten. No complaining whatsoever. Ready to try out something other than pizza, but I can't get away from the pizza! p.s. They never laughed when we asked them to walk around the block (as opposed to our lazy asses simply walking around the block) to drop it off at Sterchi! I love these guys. read more

This is my favorite pizza in Knoxville. It is cheap and delicious. It is greasy, piled high with cheese, and amazing. My mouth is watering. Fortunately, I work about 4 doors down so I can just walk over there whenever I crave it. They have ice cream, too. Pizza is 2.50 a slice. read more

This review is for the DaVinci downtown and for a pizza being delivered so take it for what you want. The pizza was good, but not great. It was an average pizza that was luke warm. My wife loves pizza that is not very hot, but I do not. I believe that had to do with it being delivered. I am curious to try DaVinci's in the restaurant. We had the sausage and pepperoni pizza, which was light. Overall, a decent pizza, but I wont be tripping over myself to get another anytime soon. read more

My fiance and I were frequenting the Old City earlier this year for some of my photo shoots and I was hungry. We didn't want to drive any where and I wanted something inexpensive so my fiance recommended DaVinci's. It is now my favorite place to eat in the Old City. If somebody asks me what I want, I say DaVinci's. Great pizza, nice location, all around good place! read more

The crust was very good, but the sauce wasn't really NY authentic. Toppings are pretty good for the most part, but the prices make this place very good as opposed to a place like Mangia out in Turkey Creek. UPDATED 8/29 - So I picked up a $6 cheese pie from them last Sunday as part of a special they have every Sunday and Monday. If the quality was like the first time I tried DaVinci's, I would leave my initial review alone. However, I think I could have honestly bought a box of Elio's pizza from Kroger and make the same product with the exception of the shape. This will most likely be the last time I eat at DaVinci's. read more

Really good pizza late night when no one else seems to be open ! Very fair pricing and swift service !

Best place for pizza in Knoxville. (And they have Edy's icecream.) The staff is awesome, the pizza is delicious, and the prices are good. On Sundays and Mondays, you can get a large cheese pizza for $6 (and additional toppings are $.75, I believe.) The staff and continued quality of the pizza are what makes this place great. And they're open super late, which is handy when you're down there for a show or out late drinking. read more

Best pizza in Knoxville. Customer service is exceptional. Great vibe. Would definitely recommend!
