Great Pizza, unique, I would even say better than the one from Mosaic. Definitely still pricy, but worth it in my eyes.

Tried this new pizza place on a friend's recommendation and was very glad I did. Great pizza. There isn't another place like this in Redding. We tried three pizzas, sausage and basil, prosciutto and arugula, and pesto, they were all good. The sausage was our favorite, I really like the prosciutto and arugula but it won't appeal to all tastes if you're looking for an American style pizza-this isn't Hawaiian or pepperoni. I love the bitter contrast of the arugula with the meat and cheese. The pesto was also good. I'd highly recommend you try this place. The owners are very nice and service was excellent. The restaurant has a nice new feel to it with some great photos on the wall.

The best pizza we've had in long time, especially Northern California ! Crust was awesome, proportions were bigger than expected and the red sauce to dip in was fire! Good job!

First off the service was amazing. My friend and I got there at 7:30 and they closed at 8. They were very accommodating regardless of the amount of time that was left. I'm from Las Vegas and have had different varieties of pizzas, but let me tell you that this place is one of the best in my book. We had the salsiccia pizza and it was so tasty! The crust was light and fluffy and the tomato sauce is delicious. The workers even brought us marinara sauce to try with our pizza and the sauce alone was delicious. I could drink it! I definitely recommended this place if you live in Redding or just visiting.

New #1 pizza place in Redding, hands down. The pizza is fresh fresh fresh. Amazing red sauce and the pistachio pesto was fantastic. I can't rave enough about this, and I'm not even a pizza person. Can't wait to come back and try the other amazing looking options! The service was great, very friendly. Also, ambiance is wonderful. Comfortable, very clean, great lighting.

Great Pizza! The crust is really good, we went for the first time today and will be coming back. Quality ingredients that you can taste. Thank you for using Italian flour, had no reactions to it! unlike the American toxic crap. Nice place. They don't do short cuts or use cheap ingredients and I appreciate that. read more

This was delicious! They were doing a $10 margarita with purchase of another pizza, so we got that with the calabrese. They hit the perfect pizza spot. I want to try everything on the menu. Their Neapolitan dough, and then crust, is super light and delicious. Small space, so just heads up if you have a large group. read more

I've tried to go there twice and both times I've been turned back at the door because they weren't open or their pizza dough didn't rise, I will never darken their door ever again and then I realized that Cinders Pizza is the best pizza that this town has to offer so I opted to go there. I drove out of my way to come to Cinders because those guys at Donatelos can't get it together. Never again. read more

Excellent food! Excellent service. Relaxed atmosphere! Since they've only been around for a year or two, I think they are working on establishing a reputation for GREAT PIZZA before expanding.... which is smart! I'm not from Redding but I do come here often and this tasty pizza will be on my list of favorite eats! Even my grandkids LOVED it. My 13 year old, my 3 year old and my 18 year old! The two younger ones are VERY picky .. they LOVED THE PIZZA!!! Oh, I sure hope that they do well and stick around long enough to get really established!!! I'll be back for more!! read more

The BEST pizza in Redding. Finally! I've been waiting for it so long. I ordered the Margherita with mushrooms. Love the tasty wood- fired flavor crust. A light crunch on the outside with a soft, chewy center that melts in your mouth. The sauce bursts with herbal sweetness and rich Italian flavor. The mushrooms were fresh and earthy.

Hands down the best Neapolitan pizza in Redding. The crust was perfectly cooked with that ideal balance of crisp on the outside and soft, slightly doughy goodness on the inside. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming they even let us create our own pizza and gave us the option to have the prosciutto cooked with it or added afterward. We chose to have it topped after, and it was fantastic. Location was great, just down the street from the park we set up our Fifthwheel at. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in town visiting family. Highly recommend Donatello's Pizzeria! read more

If you're searching for the pinnacle of pizza perfection, look no further. This pizzeria is an absolute gem--wood-fired crusts that strike the perfect balance between crispy and chewy, sauce that tastes like it was simmered in an Italian grandmother's kitchen, and toppings that are fresh, generous, and thoughtfully combined. The ambiance is cozy yet vibrant, with a team that treats you like family from the moment you walk in. Every bite feels like a celebration of flavor, tradition, and craftsmanship. Whether you're a purist going for the Margherita or exploring their bold seasonal specials, this place is a masterclass in how pizza should be done. Unforgettable. Addictive. Sublime. read more

Thank you for bringing your craft to Redding! We ordered the Margherita and the Salsiccia, and they did not disappoint. Now, readers - listen up: this is Neapolitan style pizza, and if you're familiar and like this style, you are in for a gift from the heavens. Their pizza rivals some of the best in SF and LA! If you're unfamiliar with this style, you're still in for an amazing experience. The sauce is perfect, and the crust is cooked to wood fire perfection. Although I haven't tried taking it to go, this style is best enjoyed right out of the oven. I'm very excited to help grow their business so that we can keep this amazing gem in Redding. It's really some of the best pizza north of the Bay Area. Enjoy!! read more

Amazing people! A real family restaurant, just trying to provide the absolute best ingredients for an absolute delicious pizza. Each pizza made to order, took maybe 10 min to get two freshly made pizzas, which were indescribably delicious. They really pay homage to the Italian Neapolitan pizza, using ingredients imported from Italy, and use the highest quality ingredients. You can taste every flavor clearly and cleanly, unlike most American pizza is absolutely drowned in grease and cheese and too many flavors battling eachother. Donatellos pizza does the basics expertly. The ingredients are all clean and healthy and you can eat an entire pizza to yourself without feeling that nasty bloat and over fullness. It's just a better pizza than anything else in Redding. Give it a try! I got the Margherita and salsiccia. They also provide a cup or marinara to dip the crust in read more

Overall, this was a really good experience. The pizzas were done quickly and tasted great. I loved the addition of extra sauce on the side to dip the crust. The pistachio pizza was incredible and I'd absolutely order it again. The pepperoni though just wasn't quite what I expected. The pepperoni pieces tasted surprisingly gamey and overpowered the rest of the pizza. The crust was also a touch soft, but I got them to go and I suspect that may be because the steam of the box. Definitely worth checking out! read more

The first Neapolitan pizzeria opened in Redding CA, we are a family owned and operated restaurant. Our imported and fresh local ingredients create the famous style of pizza that originated out of the city of Naples Italy. Because our dough is a 3 day fermentation process we are open until sold out so call to see if we still have dough for the day!

I later learned that she had injured herself, that's why she used a chair, however I thought it was an especially unique way to wait on a customer. Kimberly was very friendly, very personable, and very professional. She checked on me often & made sure the dining experience was enjoyable. The food came out very quickly, which was surprising since there were a lot of people there. It tasted great (as always), and (as always) left me very full with some to take home too. I love going to Olive Garden throughout the year and I especially love that our community has restaurants like this one that honor our former military. It's one of the many reasons I enjoy living where I do. The food was excellent, the service was beyond wonderful, and I'm very glad to have spent this Veterans Day with the fine people at Olive Garden. Thanks for making this veteran's day such a great experience. Pete Bowman

I have never left this high of a review before. I can't say enough about this gentleman. He is very alert and very professional in his manner and service. He was prompt and already know what we needed before we had it. The professionalism and kindness he presented to us has dumbfounded me to were it is hard to describe in detail but to say 5 stars wouldn't be enough for this gentleman. I would hope that the GM and management would consider a way to try and clone Jared so that way this location would see a lot more 5 stars and business would be at a consistent level were people would go here just for the service they know they would get out of Jared

The same bartender, I believe her name is Denise, is so kind and welcoming. I stay at a lot of hotels for work, and have sat at many hotel bars, served by many bartender's.

They even helped me carry it out to my car as my hands were full. The dining room and bar was a bit dated in appearance but the customers there seemed happy. The server mentioned a band was coming later too (Friday night). I'd also add that the portion sizes were perfect, not too big and not too small (though we received an incredible amount of onion rings for $5.00!) When in Redding we will go to Three Shastas again!

We were seated along the large window overlooking patio seating and the Sacramento River. The views are truly lovely. Our server, MJ greeted us kindly and took our beverage order. I ordered a glass of their House White, which was a 2022 California Chardonnay and was quite good. My partner ordered an iced tea. For dinner we ordered the Ribeye and the Filet, both cooked medium. Our food arrived approximately 30 minutes after ordering. The quality of the beef here was absolutely top notch. Prime beef for sure. This was the best steak I have enjoyed in Shasta County in over 10 years. Absolutely cooked to perfection. My partner's filet was massive. This had to be at least a 20 ounce filet and he enjoyed every morsel. The sides accompanying our mains, mashed potatoes and carrots for him and mashed potatoes and Brussels sprouts for me, were fair to good, but not great. The carrots were raw. As in, not only very crunchy but cold all the way through. Mashed potatoes were nice and buttery, but not nearly warm enough. These spuds sat on a plate until the beef arrived. The restaurant was very kind in offering us a complimentary slice of cheesecake since we were celebrating an anniversary. The cheesecake was dense and rich and accompanied by berry sauce and caramel sauce, both of which were lovely. Freshly piped whipped cream and mixed berries and powdered sugar on the dessert plate made for a very lovely presentation, indeed, and was most appreciated. Service the entire meal was excellent. Price for our meals: $135 + $27 gratuity for a total of $162. We have paid nearly as much for a steak dinner elsewhere in Shasta County for a meal that came nowhere close to this. Worth. Every. Penny. Cannot wait to try the Brunch Menu. Highly Recommended.

We stopped in yesterday for the first time and we were DELIGHTED! This Italian's opinion is that the best pizza in the world comes from Naples, Italy, and now at Donatello's in Redding. We were greeted with a warm and welcoming smile. The place is clean and relaxing, decorated tastefully with a casual vibe. The best part was the scent in the air. The beautiful wood-fire pizza oven was impressive as well, and we were amazed to hear that the owners built it themselves. We tried the spicy pepperoni and the Salsiccia and couldn't figure out which one we liked better. With each delicious bite, I had to remind myself that I was in Redding, CA, and not in Naples. The owners' passion for pizza perfection is obvious, and they have mastered their craft. We can't wait to try all of their pizzas. My only complaint: I'm ruined to eat pizza anywhere else. read more

The wife and I have been to Donatello's twice now over the past 2 weeks and are happy to report that they have earned our pizza night patronage. We've tried the Calabrese, Salsiccia, and Pistachio pies and all were fantastic. Both the service and taste of the Neapolitan style pies are excellent , the quality is heads and shoulders above the other local or chain pizza joints. Going back tonight for more! read more
