    We came to this restaurant on Recommendation from Player Sports bar. We tried a variety of menu options: Buffalo chicken wraps, chicken fajita wraps, pizza, salad. All of it was very good and the restaurant personnel were very friendly and helpful. Total bill was under $100 for 7 people, with tip, we thought that was very reasonable. Very good food. Those buffalo chicken wraps were spicy!

    The business is located close to the hotel, so access and parking was great and accessible. Ordered pizza and salad and was ready within 20 minutes. Pizza looked great; have never seen black olives that large on a pizza before. The whole experience was smooth. Everyone was very nice and attentive. If you're in the area to visit Niagara Falls, this is a must stop!

    Ambience with locals lovely, #servers friendly. They phoned me quickly to retrieve forgotten item Stick to Authentic, being from California i ordered a hybrid w habanero, however it needed a lighter touch. Sadly no freshly grated cheese was available which diminishes experience but that may be a supply chain dilemma. Overall due stars for ambience and stick to it tive ness in this Economy. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    Wow! When is the last time a sub brownout away??? Come here to find out. Everything looked so good. Someone ordered a toco salad and pizza. Looked amazing

    Donatellos is a hole in the wall restaurant. The workers are extremely nice and welcoming. The food was wonderful. My family got a little bit of everything... chicken, pizza, and shrimp and not a single one of us had any complaints!

    This is what you call a quintessential NY pizzeria. No muss and no fuss. What they do have is a very friendly staff. The one employee immediately welcomed us when we stepped in and gave us instructions on how their ordering process goes. The older gentleman was a sweet and welcoming guy. He brought over a horseshoe magic trick for my kids. They weren't able to solve the trick, but their old dad knows a thing or two and figured it out. Now the food: I generally don't gravitate to pizza for food when out of town, unless it's a small, local business. Those are the types of places that generally make legitimately good pizza. Donatello's does not disappoint. The pizza had the right amount of sauce and very tasty without tasting sweet as some of the national chains usually taste like. The other key factor into a good pizza is the crust. When I saw one of my kids move to throw away their crust, I almost screamed! Nope. That crust is entering my belly! As I alluded to earlier, the place is not much to look at. It adds to its charm and the fact that a large, if not majority, portion of their business is takeout. If you're on the US side of the Falls, then give this place a try!

    Tasty pizza crust. Give it a few moments for your pizza to cool down so your toppings aren't oozing of your

    Extremely delicious for the home cooked style foods. Many places do not make pizza like Donatello's.

    I was really excited to try this place and looking forward to the sweet sauce. I actually drove out…read moreof my way for it. I was let down. First off I will say, no complaints on the price or customer service. The woman was so friendly and personable it made me not want to leave a review since it's not a good one. She was a gem; the pizza: not so much. And judging by the reviews here, maybe it was just an off moment. The sauce wasn't so sweet as I wanted. But that's subjective. However, what I hated the most was my slices were soggy and cold. I mean so soggy I couldn't even eat my last slice. And cold it should not be, as I ate it in my car on the street because I live 35 mins away. I really wanted to love it here after my great customer service experience but unfortunately my experience with the pizza itself was not as great as everyone else's. If I ever happen to have it again (I go to Lewiston often), and have a better quality slice, I will update review but sadly it missed the mark for me.

    I've been to this place a few times but It's been a while since my last visit as every darn time I…read moredrive by it's closed. That's my biggest complaint, I never know when they are open. They have crappy hours and shut down every summer. Some people think that's cool and part of the appeal, I do not. Apparently they are open until June and then good luck trying to figure out when they reopen. Sept? Oct? At any rate, it's a royal pain, and even when they are open, it only seems to be Fri, Sat, Sun. I've tried calling them many times to see if they are open but the phone is never answered, or always busy--so frustrating. Today I actually found them open and grabbed a few cheese slices for $1.25 each. A 12 slice half tray is $14, wow a whole dollar of savings instead of buying them individually, generous huh? The slices were super sweet, like they poured massive amounts of sugar in the sauce and dough. The bottom of the slices were almost black (see one of my pics) because of being overcooked, making them very hard to bite into, and far too chewy/crunchy. Thanks, but no thanks--it's just not worth the hassle. I rather choose one of the other local places with normal operating hours, and better quality control.
