    10" cheese pizza
    Mahauganee S.

    This location, in the A gates, was directly next to our gate. We arrived to the gate about half an hour early, and decided to order pizza before our flight. We ordered two 10 inch pizzas, one cheese and one specialty pizza. The specialty pizza was the very vegy. (Disclaimer: that's how they feel veggie; don't come for me) My husband thought the pizza did not have enough pizza sauce. My 5.5 year-old thought the cheese pizza was two cheesy. My brand new four-year-old found the cheese pizza to be just fine. I really enjoyed the seasonings on the veggie pizza. I thought I gave a good flavor. This location only serves thin crust and cauliflower crust. We had thin crust on both pizzas. It was more crispy on the veggie pizza, which the adults appreciated. The restaurant has seating, but stayed busy. So, we had to scope out a table while we waited for our pizza. Luckily, a table for four opened up just before our order came up. Overall, this was a good experience.

    I have never had a cauliflower crust pizza that was as good as one with a wheat-based crust. Until now. I ordered the Founder's Special on the cauliflower crust, and it was amazing! This is some of the best pizza I've ever had, and it's at an airport of all places! My wife and I had a few drinks at the bar while waiting for our flight, and the bartender was friendly and generous in allowing us to taste things before ordering them. A great experience overall, and if you're flying into or out of Columbus, it's definitely worth a try!

    So, the last time I flew out I had overpriced wine at Vino Volo and this time I walked past it. I saw Donato's. With a bar. With cheaper wine. I had 2 glasses of Malbec for $20. I also had one of their pre-packaged salads. Friendly service. They have a full bar.

    The corn meal on the bottom is a "secret ingredient" - a little extra flvor and crispness.

    It is not all that easy to get excited by airport food, but I'm usually jazzed about a quick lunch on my way out of Columbus. Why? Donatos! Donato's is a regional chain focusing on a delicious thin crust pizza that includes some cornmeal on the bottom, a feature that I loved about Shakey's pizza when that chain was national. I had the meal deal on my most recent visit which included a 7" personal pizza (pepperoni) and a soft drink. Hot, fast, delicious, and at a reasonable price, by airport food standards. If you need something more substantial than a soft drink, there is a full bar available (not as part of the meal deal, though...). Pizza is not everyone's friend. Know that they have a decent cauliflower crusts for those who prefer/need that option.

    Personal pepperoni pizza

    Pizza was delish! Crispy pepperoni with a nice layer of grated parm all over. The crust was different. At first it tasted kinda dry but then it was a good balance to the toppings kinda like a shortbread cookie is a good kind of dry when it's covered in chocolate. The only reason I'm giving 4 instead of 5 stars is the ordering process. Maybe it's the time of day (tho noon on a Fri seems like a steady business hour) but the big wall menu and bottled water/soda counter area has a sign telling you to order at the bar instead. Well the bar tender was plenty busy making drinks and that area is really crowded plus she's racking up food orders. Pizza took a bit of time too. So maybe it's not their normal workflow and they were short handed or something. Considering how bad airport food options are, I'd definitely eat here again, regardless!

    Okay.. I'm sorry this place was completely disappointing... airport dining can do a lot better. The lady at the counter was so disinterested in my order that I should've known trouble was coming.. I say I was a simple hamburger pizza, she says "we don't have hamburger..."you can do pepperoni"... Fine I did pepperoni.. and LOOK at the pepperoni monster they served me.. overwhelming... And it wouldn't be so bad if the pepperonis were underwhelmingly tasteless... Nice place.. nice atmosphere... But as far as the food and service?.. it's a no for me

    Big dom
    Gena W.

    Yay! A restaurant bar combo that's open at the airport. I ordered a side caprese salad and a 7" mariachi pizza. Yum yum. My husband got a big dom. So glad they were open I'm not complaining about one thing.

    The line was Hella long. They were completely understaffed. You'll miss your flight if you wait on them.
    Jennifer J.

    I felt so bad for the ladies working here. The line was so long and everybody was complaining, but they were so understaffed and they didn't have any pizzas on hand. They were really unprepared.

    Nice local craft beer selection
    Lauren T.

    Imagine-it's 7:30PM and there are almost 300 people waiting for a late night flight. Only two restaurants are open, one is a pub and the other is this Donatos. They had a better selection of beer so we came here. The staff was completely overwhelmed (three people working total including making the food). I'm giving them 4 stars because they truly hauled ass and did the best they could to make sure everyone was served quickly and accurately. Since we were all drinking, they ran out of glasses quickly but improvised. The beers ran out quickly with so much demand but there were still some good options on draft. The pizza was as good as always for thin style columbus pizza.

    COMPLETELY BURNT!!

    We came to Grandview Theater to try Fibonacci's pizza while seeing the new Michael Jackson movie…read more We ordered a pizza and one of their sandwiches, which is made using the pizza dough. The sandwich was honestly the highlight of the meal. It was delicious, and the pizza dough as the bread was such a unique touch that you really don't find at many Italian sandwich spots around Columbus. The pizza itself was just okay. As you can see from the picture, the toppings weren't distributed very evenly, so some slices had mostly sauce with barely any cheese while others had way more toppings and cheese but less sauce. I also wish the pizza had been cooked a little longer overall because it was pretty floppy and doughy. One thing that makes it tough is that once the movie starts, it's hard to go back and ask for changes or anything since the theater is packed and getting in and out of the seats feels disruptive. We'll definitely be back to Grandview Theater because we love the experience overall, but next time I'll probably stick to the sandwiches and popcorn and skip the pizza.

I tried half of the Licensed to Dill which was just okay. Pickles on pizza isn't really my thing. Pesto on pizza wasn't really my thing either, but having half of a an Ecto Pesto changed my mind. Perhaps the chicken and bacon on the pie was what I really liked, but the point is that it all came together surprisingly well. It definitely gave me hope for the more meat-heavy pizza options that I tend to prefer.

The kind of spot where you expect a solid beer and maybe some decent bar food. What you don't expect? One of the best Detroit-style pizzas of your life hiding behind a window in the back like some carb-based speakeasy. And when I say hidden, I mean hidden. No flashy signage. No "best pizza in town" ego. Just a quiet little window cranking out square pies that deserve a standing ovation. I ordered the classic red top -- already a bold move -- and added pesto because balance matters and I like to live a little. The result? Beyond reproach. Fresh, loaded toppings. Sauce with depth. And that crust... that beautiful Detroit crust. Crispy edges with that caramelized cheese halo, but still chewy and pillowy inside. The textural contrast is what separates amateurs from legends -- and this? This was legend-level execution. Easily top 3 Detroit-style pizzas I've had. And that's not a casual statement. If you don't understand the life-altering power of true Detroit-style pizza, I regret to inform you... you have not been living. Go find the window in the back. Trust me.

I arrived in the evening to grab some take out and the place was empty . They have an open kitchen concept and staff were super friendly. However, we waited quite a long time for our food. I got a small Hawaiian pizza and it took well over 25 minutes for it to be done, especially when there were no other patrons in the restaurant. After getting the pizza the staff were so nice to also give us some ice water. I think I'd give the pizza itself a 3/5 mostly because it was very salty and greasy. However, I did enjoy that there were lots of pineapples on the pizza along with the crispy crust. Having the pizza the next day cold was also okay. Would be interested to know how their other food items are as their menu was pretty big. Staff overall was super nice and friendly. Could use less salt on their pizzas in my opinion though.

When I arrived around 10pm on a Sunday night, the place looked like it was in transition to closing (chairs flipped over on tables, no patrons, staff members watching TV in empty booths). However, I was welcomed in to order by the friendly woman at the counter. She answered a few of my questions and when I asked what her favorite was, she immediately said, "Buckeye Garlic Pizza." I took her advice and was also able to add up to three toppings at no additional charge (mushroom, olive and sausage). I took a seat and waited about 10 minutes for my personal 10" pie, which came out hot and with a friendly, "Thank You, Sweetie." I ran the pie back to my hotel and opened up the box. The pie looked amazing. Perfectly crispy outer crust, six cheeses and garlic, along with my toppings. The pie was pretty damn good, with steam coming off the top. The six-cheese blend was interesting, with the dominant flavors being American and Cheddar. The sausage, olives and mushrooms were all fresh and plentiful. Definitely a good option to satisfy my hunger for a late night pizza in Downtown Columbus.
