Delicious!!!! Thin crust just how I like it, and fresh ingredients. The pizza sauce has a great taste and it taste like real tomato sauce. So glad I decided to try it! Gentle man at the register was nice and helpful. I could tell the staff was back there hustlin and it was a well oiled machine. Thank you all for the yummy food! I had the deluxe and loved it. My kids had the cheese pizza and they loved it. Quick enough for a pick up. We stayed near and worth the 10 minute drive! Great atmosphere and family friendly too! read more

Pizza Novara - Yummy delux! - Pizza Near Me - Bloomington, Minnesota

This was an amazing addition to my tastiest pizza in Minnesota list! We ordered the Caesar Salad and Meat Lovers pizza. The Caesar was fresh with delicious croutons on it. I especially love their "paper plates", it adds such a fun touch to the experience! Their Meat Lovers pizza is seriously incredible. I could eat the whole thing if I was left to my own devices. The service was 10/10. Our food was brought to us promptly and with forks when we forgot to grab them! Plus the manager stopped by to ask how our food was. We were checked in on the appropriate amount and our plates were quickly cleared. I will absolutely be returning! read more

Their name includes the name cheese steak so I ordered a cheesesteak . While waiting for my cheesesteak I saw several pizzas come out and I should've ordered a pizza too. The cheesesteak was OK - it needed seasoning and more cheese. The bread was good and the service in this place/owner was incredible. I highly recommend this place. read more

Always happy to have a new pizza addition to the neighborhood. They have been here only 3 weeks. Parking is tight but possible on a Sunday morning. Located in the South Loop in Bloomington. It shares the parking with the AC Hotel Bloomington Marriott. Good spot to grab grub if you are staying there. Walk in and it's fresh clean modern appearance is inviting. With bar top, high table, both and table seating your gonna be comfy. The counter service was very kind and helpful with all the minor menu questions. The menu has many promising options I am excited for rigatoni and their cheese steak sandwich lemon bar and a danish but this review will focus on their pepperoni pizza that I actually ordered could be my new favorite. It has a doughy crust almost like a regular crust green mill. It has a perfect balance of sauce and cheese for me. It's a tad on the greasy side but that doesn't scare me. DELICIOUS!!! Slices are cut slimmer when you order the whole pie. Last second I ordered an ice cream cone. Extra creamy for soft serve ice cream. The plates are super cute they look like white paper plates but they're real. The soda machine has some interesting selections. With the options of not only normal but soda water. If you press the water symbol button (that is not labeled water) that is attached to the root beer you will receive soda water. read more

I live right by the MOA and we stopped in here upon my father's request as my parents were in the mood for pizza. I tried this a few years back when they first opened. I wasn't too impressed the first time - chalk that up to being a pizza snob? Happy to say the pizza was much more tasty and memorable. The wings were okay, but if you're looking for great wings go to Monte Carlo (MPLS) or Burger Dive (St. Paul). Pizza was crispy and on the thinner side, which is my preferred type of crust. read more

Staying in AC Hotel on business, wanted a quick lunch. Pizza Novara is right next door, so what the heck? I order online, food is to be ready in 20 minutes. I walk over to be there after 19 minutes. Poof! Pizza is just coming out of the oven! Terrific service. The counter person offers paper plate-utensils-napkins plus offers small envelopes of Parmesan cheese and red pepper flakes. So considerate, without me asking! Pizza was excellent: crispy crust, slight spice/sweet tomato sauce, good cheese. Everything seemed fresh. Super easy ordering, great service, good food, what more might I want? Recommended! read more

Was staying at the Element next door and decided to order Novara for takeout! Kind of wished I would have eaten in the restaurant, they had a cute area and bar! Pizza is as good; nothing too extravagant- I would make the pepperoni pieces smaller, but overall good experience. read more

Every time we are in Minneapolis we have a meal for sure at Pizza Navarathri. The establishment is clean & friendly, the pizza & Italian subs tasty and it has always been a 5 Star experience. Keep it up read more

Tried Pizza Novara for the first time today. I was impressed! I ordered the Slicer Combo. It's come with a gigantic slice of pizza, side salad, and a fountain soda. It was all delicious. I got a slice of pepperoni and a Caesar salad, no regrets. It would've been perfect if one of my kids were with me, then we could split it and have it be a perfect serving size! read more

When searching for restaurants in the area for my husband and son two weekends ago, I sent them this place based on the reviews. They went and had wings and a Hawaiian pizza, and they both enjoyed it. When we were all in the area again last weekend, we knew where we all had to go... FOOD: So good. On this visit, we ordered three pizzas (Alo-hot!, Margherita, and Novara Deluxe), garlic cheese bread, wings, and an iced coffee. Everything was delicious. My son couldn't stop talking about the wings on his last visit, and I understand why. He devoured most of them again on this past visit. I really enjoyed the iced coffee - can't remember the flavor, but it was on a sign on their counter, and it was delicious & sweet. Perfect on a hot day. SERVICE: Excellent. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and knowledgeable. You order at the counter, and they provide you a table number if you are dining in. They bring your food out to you. They were attentive and went the extra mile bringing out our food, clearing empty dishes, and making small talk. AMBIANCE: They are located next to another restaurant and by hotels. There is a parking structure with plenty of parking - at least when we went. The inside of the restaurant is bright and clean. There is also seating outside. OVERALL: Would recommend and would definitely visit again. read more

Omg! I absolutely love Pizza Novara! From the amazing pizza to the service. At one point I was coming here so much that I would speak to the staff there they really are super great, kind, and work hard. Also the large pepperoni pizza and mushrooms is to die for! I can not get enough of it! I really like their raspberry chocolate cheese cake I just wish the crust was something different but aside from that it's good. And if you want to avoid crowds because it can get a bit busy and loud in there then pick up is the way to go or before the evening and weekend rush. The price is fair and we always have left overs so you can't beat this at all. I hope this helps you to give Pizza Novara a try because it's worth every bite ;) read more

Pizza is good but service was very disappointing. Ordered a pizza to go and after 35 minutes ( quiet night ) asked where it was. I was told they must have misplaced it and would fire another one, no apology. When it was finally ready they simply dropped the box on the counter and walked away. No explanation at all. I felt that I was an inconvenience not a customer. Simple order on a slow night, no excuse for ten service being so poor read more

We chose to eat here because we were going to a movie at MOA. We avoid eating at the mall. I'd also read the reviews and felt that it was well worth taking a chance on it. Well, all of the good things said about this place is well deserved. We got: Roasted Meatballs, Garlic Cheese Bread and the Red, White, & Blue Pizza. Stellar is all that I can say. Just stellar. The crust has East Coast and New York written all over it, and I am here for it. It's got a nice bite without being too chewy. The sauce perfectly bakes into the crust and is the perfect vehicle for the toppings. Everything was balanced, delicious, and soul satisfying. The meatballs are difficult to share because their deliciousness brings out selfishness and greed. We may order one for each of us the next time we come. The meatballs are PERFECT. We ended the meal with ice cream. We got: Affogato, Caramel & Nuts, and Almond Hot Honey. The cups are filled to the brim with cool delectableness that makes it difficult for one to use restraint. We all were happy without our choices, and I was surprised by the amount of heat in the Almond Hot Honey. I looooooooooved having a warm mouth from it. Kind of wish it were a bit spicier. The only thing we'd change about our visit is getting smaller cups of ice cream. We had both pizza and ice cream leftovers, so it's not really a bad thing to have had more than we'd intended to eat in one sitting. Now, my final thoughts on the staff. They are equally as stellar as the food. They are patient, answer questions, and make you feel quite welcome in the restaurant. We will certainly be back. My son lives close enough where he can probably get delivery. He was very happy to get that news. If you are looking for pizza and all the great things that go with it, Pizza Novaro is the place to go. read more

THE best gluten-free cauliflower crust I have ever had!! Amazing. Soft, actual behaved like a normal crust and tasted phenomenal! Loved the atmosphere and people working there was huge plus. Loved it - will be back next time we are in Minneapolis. read more

Glad to see another option over by the hotels off American. Admittedly, I tried to go over to Hazelwood for dinner, but the wait was too long and I was too hungry to wait, so wandered next door. I wasn't disappointed. I actually wasn't starving, so this might have been a better choice than Hazelwood anyway. I got the BBQ wings, which were perfectly crispy and not overly saucy. Hubs had the hot honey pizza and seemed to enjoy it. read more

Wow - I never thought I'd review a pizza place before I was taken here. The pizza is to die for and the service and ambiance is even better. Yum!!!! read more

Needed an easy close place to our hotel to grab dinner before an early a.m. flight. The chopped salad and Novara Deluxe pizza was absolutely delicious. The salad was great from first bite to last. A delightful ever changing bite with a wonderful balsamic dressing. The pizza Ingres were fresh and delicious on a wonderful crust. Service and staff was quick and friendly. Highly recommend and will definitely eat here again if I'm ever back in Minneapolis. read more

Came back the next day to get another slice while i was still in town. 10/10 recommend!!! read more

I saw Pizza Novara on a list of spots for a slice of pizza for lunch. The reviews looked good. I stopped in and chose from the 4 or 5 pizzas up for lunch. A margherita and a pepperoni. Both slices were reheated in the oven and came to the table piping hot. I found the sauce a bit too sweet for my taste and the crust was pretty typical pizza crust. Nothing to get too excited about. I'd like to go back and try a pasta dish in the future. read more

I'm from NYC and pizza is not something to mess with. While the rest of MN seems to have their odd way of making it (toppings under cheese), this place is legit! A slice and a drink was all I ate and it was all I needed. I was impressed with the temperature, the ingredients, and it did taste like NY pizza. Great location, nice seatings, and a decent atmosphere. The manager came around often always asking how things were going so the service is impressive. They seem to adopt the servant leadership model at this place, all around a great business with good food. I will return, and next time, with my whole family. read more

It was okay... from order to delivery (35 min) it arrived cold. Salad was good though. Nothing special.

Was in the area at a local hotel for a family event and ordered pizza from Novara. I'm from out of town and don't know what Novara means, but to me it means DELICIOUS (yes all caps). Great pizza, super quick. A little pricey, but you get what you pay for. read more

Excited to see another good place pop up in my neighborhood! The staff was super friendly and even provided some great suggestions to "Level up" our pizza! We started off with the BBQ wings that were tasty and then we had the ALO-HOT! pizza. The pizza was sooooo good and definitely had a kick to it! Can't wait to come back and try other menu items read more

I had some friends in town that were staying at the hotel next door. Hazelwood, which is right next door, is a good place, however we were in the mood for pizza, so we elected to try Pizza Novara. Turns out it was a great choice! We ordered a large deluxe, some garlic bread which was really more like pizza fries and an order of wings. The deluxe pizza was really good! Love that their onions and vegetables are shaved so they caramelize when the pizza is baked. The pizza crust was also really good. Almost has a sourdough dough flavor while still being crispy. Really nice. The wings state that they are marinated for 24 hours. We tried the BBQ wings. The wings were solid. Meaty and flavorful. Not sure that we could tell the difference between a wing that was marinated or not marinated, however still a decent wing. The clear winner from our order was the garlic bread. Again we felt these were more like pizza fries however when they make something that tastes that great, they can call it whatever they want! Fresh mozzarella, and rich and creamy garlic butter. It's almost shameful to dip them in the provided marinara sauce. We could eat those anytime! Pizza Novara also has sandwiches and entrees that also look really good. We'll definitely be back again. read more

Hot lunch date with my partner to check out this new east side Bloomington Pizzaria. For a Thursday, the place wasn't too busy for lunch. We were able to order right away. We shared an order of buffalo wings to start, which were meaty and delicious. A generous amount of wings and dummies, enough to bring some home for snacks later. The Italian Chopped salad was enough for a meal, my partner said. I tried the meat lover pizza, the Mr. Gambini. It has pepperoni, sausage, bacon, capicola, and their house red sauce. The crust was good, and the medium size was perfect to have a few slices to bring home for left overs. The waitstaff was polite, checked in with us once and ensured we had boxes to take our left overs home. Overall, the food was above expectations, as was the price by a bit. I will be back to try the baked pasta and sub sandwiches. read more

Gluten free pizza was so good I double checked they served me the right thing! Went on a Friday night and there was no wait. Friendly, relaxed atmosphere. You order at the register and take your number to a table or seat at the bar. We got the meatball hoagie, the BBQ chicken pizza and the house salad. All were delicious and made to order with the specifics I gave. No pictures because we inhaled too quickly! Would definitely go back! read more

We were looking forward to trying this pizza while in town. Ordering online was easy and they got it to us super fast! However, the quality and taste of the food is underwhelming. There's nothing special and the cheese bread barely has flavor. The wings have a buffalo sauce that has an interesting smoky flavor. But the seem like they were over crispy as if they had been dropped again to heat them back up which made them incredibly tough to eat. The pizza and garlic bread also had a chewy texture to the crusts. We are pizza lovers but this one isn't one we would be willing to try again. The also said it was a NY style pizza, but really it was just a regular crust with regular size slices. read more

The pizza and penne with meatballs were delicious! The prices are a bit escalated for portion size but since it tasted so good; it wasn't that big of a deal. Knocking one star off because when we went to pick up our food, the man helping us at the counter had a really grumpy face and literally said nothing to me. I asked for paper plates and silverware because we are from out of town and he sighed like he was annoyed that I was asking for it. Sorry that I didn't want to eat pasta with my hands. Not sure if he was having a bad night but it was pretty busy so I imagine that perturbed him. Nonetheless, a decent amount of service and doing your job is the expectation and the service was lacking here. read more

Located in an easy to reach spot not far from MSP airport/MOA. Very nice, plenty of seating options for dining in. Really friendly folks, amazing hand-tossed New York style pizzas and delicious varieties of soft serve (the Affogato is insanely good if you're like me and love espresso), just a few reasons to make this your go-to stop in the area. Don't fall for the tourist-y stuff in MOA. This is waaaaay better! read more

The pizza was amazing and so were the Asian wings. I could eat those all the time. The salad was super fresh. We devoured everything!

Great Pizza, wings, and beer! We ordered three different types of wings (original, garlic, and one other type), as well as two different types of pizza (Pepperoni and Veggie I believe). Everything was excellent. The IPA I had was also very good. Super nice and helpful staff! Thank you! read more

Didn't get any pictures. Service was fast and friendly. Wings were tender and crispy. Pizza was amazing! Margarita was made perfectly.

Great New York style pizza. Served hot made with fresh ingredients. The crust was delicious and perfect for folding. Buffalo wings were AMAZING too. Service was fantastic as well. The space felt like a New York pizzeria except cleaner complete with a small bar and a few tvs. No reservations so plan to stop in a little early if you're in a hurry. read more

Entrees and sandwiches as good as the pizza! Great casual atmosphere with very friendly staff. Highly recommend.

Good food, clean store, great staff. Kind of pricey, $26 for one pizza, but it is good. We also ordered some Buffalo Wings. They too were good. I personally think the wings are better than the pizza, and that is not to say the pizza was bad.... It was good, and especially if someone were to suggest another trip here, I would definitely be back. The buffalo Sauce had a unique flavor to it that I can't put my finger on to compare it to anything else in particular, but it wasn't the typical Buffalo Hot Sauce flavor. It took me off guard the first wing or two, but after knowing what to expect, I like it better than most Buffalo sauces! I would take a picture, but barren wings and a plate with left over pepper flakes just wouldn't do it justice! read more
