We actually had a free coupon and got a cheese pizza to go. It was very hot and tasty but so thin that it was just okay. Now I love thin crust but it tasted like a homemade pizza dusted in corn meal. I will try again another time and hopefully it will be better. read more

Gave Donatos another shot today - all good! Pizzas were ready right on time and everything was correct. We love the pizzas here and seems the service issues have improved. We will be back!! read more

I was in the area, so I stopped in and ordered a nice and tasty pizza to take home. The flavor of the crust and pizza was dynamite! It's located in a strip mall. I also ordered a sandwich to bring home as well. Everything was delicious. I highly recommend this great pizza place. Pros:great tasting pizza, sandwiches and knots. Great customer service. Cons:a little hard to find Recommend? Yes, any day of the week. read more

Good luck ordering via phone, app or website. Be prepared for it to take up to an hour of your time and still not to go through due to technical errors beyond your control. Human service inside not too much of an improvement. Yet still requests/suggestions a tip. A shame as the pizza is pretty good. read more

I have been to this Donatos location 3-4 times in the past few years. They are just across the intercoastal bridge and bonus, they have a drive-thru for pick up. And a few designated spots in the front if you want to go inside to pickup. On my last visit, I ordered a margarita pizza and Tai chili wings. We sat outside as it was a lovely Spring night. They brought our food to us. I was impressed with the pizza. There was a balsamic glaze drizzle on top. That was original and added a nice flavor! The wings were OK. The drums were a little fatty for my taste. But the drums were good and the sauce was tasty. I suggest giving them a try. read more

I ordered Donatos for a Saturday lunch just to try the place as I had never tasted their pizza. I liked the idea of having toppings that went to the edge of the crust and I usually like thin crust pizza when it's done well. My order was simple - a 10-inch pepperoni pizza and an order of asiago cheese bread with garlic. When it arrived, the pizza was a little lopsided but it had a pretty good taste to it. The crust was thin but it was not greasy and the pepperoni was soft and plentiful. The cheese bread on the other hand was not good. It was burnt and had cheese topping it that wasn't consistently spread across it. It was thick in some areas and thin in others. The flavor wasn't great and mine didn't come with the marinara sauce that was advertised. This wouldn't be my "go to" spot for pizza. I love cheese bread and cheese sticks and their version just wasn't good. read more

Yum! We all love Donatos Pizza in this house! We ordered online for a window pick up and our order was ready, on time and exactly what we ordered. The girl at the window was so friendly too! We ordered 3 cauliflower crust pizzas...2 four cheese and 1 veggie as well as a medium thin crust with sausage, pepperoni, onion and peppers. We also added 4 garden salads and some brownies and cookies for dessert. We loved everything! I highly recommend Donatos Pizza. read more

Donatos Pizza - Love pick up pizza! - Pizza Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Just love their pizza and wish they would bring them back on the east side. There was one in Willoughby and also one in Mentor. Please come back read more

I have tried this place several times and I just can't understand how it has 4 stars, the pizza is not good at all. I love all kinds of pizza but this is just bad. I believe the dough is the problem but I couldn't even tell you what style this is, I would prefer papa John's. We used the service window, and one employee was kind to us, the other was so rude when we asked for ranch we knew we had ordered and paid for. She insisted on checking the system and when the other employee confirmed we had, she angrily shoved it at us in our car. Definitely wouldn't go back. But my roommate loves it, so to each their own. read more

Good pizza and good people! We entered the free pizza Friday contest on Instagram and won a free one topping pizza so we stopped in today! I ordered the roasted garlic pizza with thicker crust and it was amazing, next time I'll have to ask for extra garlic! And we also ordered the garlic Asiago cheese bread. Everything was fresh and flavorful and i know I'll be back to try their plant based options! read more

Donatos Pizza - Roasted garlic with thick crust - Pizza Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Best pizza and subs ever!! I have to drive an hour when I want Donatos, & while that's a pain, I t's still worth it!!

Their pizzas have a unique taste, the quality is always top notch, the service is always great, and they never disappoint!

On Valentine's Day, I decided to surprise my husband with gifts and pizza! I wanted to try a new pizza joint and stumbled across Donatos Pizza on a friends social media post. When I went to their website (few weeks before Valentine's Day) they were offering heart shaped pizza! I had to order it! My husband loved his pizza! He gobbled it all up barely leaving me a slice or two but I was happy overall with the taste, the pizza shape and the customer service! Very happy customer. You know what they say, happy spouse means a happy house! read more

I love pizza as much as Oprah loves bread. So when Donatos was listed as a yelp event I was eager to try it. The style of pizza is not new to me, in Maryland they have a place called Ledo's that bakes and cuts their pizza in a similar way. We ordered our usual, pepperoni, sausage and extra cheese pizza with a side of breadsticks and wings. The wings are DYNOMITE. The sauce to chicken ratio was perfect. My wife seemed to really like the breadsticks. Now when it came to the pizza, I made a mistake and ordered extra sauce. I thought the photos from the others customers showed a dryer style pizza. I know next time go with regular sauce. The toppings to dough ratio were good and I feel like we'll order from Donatos again when we're out at the beach. read more

The best pizza parlor in Jacksonville by far. Hands down the crust is soft and full of flavor. Great choice.

#ThankfulThursday My T.T. Shoutout goes to Donato's Pizza; my new pizza joint BFF and Jacksonville's first and only edge-to-edge pizza shop. I often get that "hoodafukyouthinkyouare" look everytime I request a pizza shop to stretch their ingredients all the way to the edge and quite honestly, they screw it up anyways. Donato's edge-to-edge solved this for me. I love a crustless pizza. The less crust the better, that's just my preference. So I have been wanting to try this place since they opened many months ago. It's abit further drive for me but worth it. Their crust & pizza tasted delicious. It was a win-win for the family. I cannot wait to come back here again. They have different items to offer that I really want to try. read more

I always hated negative reviews that said they didn't like a type of food after going to a restaurant that served that food. Like, a 2 star review of a sushi joint that ends with, well I kinda don't like sushi. Sooooo, I don't want to just end with a review implying I don't like Ohio style pizza. Not that I particularly dislike thin crust, but I think it's easy to overload these. There has to be a balance of crust, sauce, cheese, and topping. But you know what? That's also a bit of ignorance on my part because I don't have much experience with this type of pizza. Otherwise, I wouldn't have ordered pies with so many toppings right off the bat. If I ordered this thin crust again, it would be a cheese pizza or pepperoni. Hmmm, maybe the spinach chicken mozzarella. If you look at food the way I do, that's what I personally recommend. Don't get anything with too many meats and other toppings, not even the Founder's Favorite. It also occurred to me that compared to other crusts, you don't want to let this one sit because it'll lose that perfect initial crispiness. So we lose some of the texture in these by only having them as takeout/delivery. I got the hot chicken pizza on a hand tossed crust. It was pretty good, although I didn't think it was all that different from some chicken pizzas I've had elsewhere. The pickles really make it work. *sigh* 4 stars it is. I'll probably be back here again, but it won't be for a while cause I'm tired of thinking about this (not to mention tired of eating it lol). read more

Really tasty counter service pizza place that is an answer to my daughter's VEGAN PRAYERS. Both of my daughters are allergic to dairy and gluten, so when I saw the vegan options they were EXCITED. We had a little snafu our first go round as their ordering system would not show "no cheese" on the order. No problem, I called them and they made everything right and I drove and they picked up the corrected version. Here is what's we tried: Pepperoni - my son says you rate a pizza joint by its pepperoni and he was quite impressed. Smaller size pepperoni that curl up up on the ends, just right. Favorite - why doesn't everyone put banana peppers on pizza, so good! Four Cheese - toxic to my daughters, but my wife and son loved this. Hawaiian - I did not try this one, mostly because it was gone. Gluten Free Skinny - Really delicious, our version had no cheese but it was still delightful. Gluten Free Its all Greek to me- Really good, and perfect for a dairy free pizza. Order online, thru their app, or call in. And it'll be ready when you get here. plentiful parking and service couldn't have been better. Special thanks to Erin for correcting our order and letting us know how to correctly order vegan in the future. read more

Out at the beach and happened to be close to Donatos and had heard good things so wanted to check it out! We got a large pizza with sausage and green peppers, I really like it they cut it across the whole pie into squares! It leaves these little crispy edge pieces that are great! It looked yummy, on first bite my first thought was the crust was unusual, like thin cracker crust with corn meal on the bottom!? But as I ate more I really liked it! Very tasty their sauce was a little sweet, plenty of cheese and fresh toppings, yum! Happy they are opening one in mandarin soon! read more

We decided to try Donatos tonight for an early dinner delivery and for the most part were pleased. Online ordering was a breeze, pizza arrived at the time stated, delivery person was nice, and the items were hot. We ordered an order of the cheese bread with marinara sauce, a side salad, a small half veggie half cheese pizza, and a large pepperoni pizza. I thought the food was good for the most part. The bread was a little overcooked and charred on the bottom. My husband did not care for the pizza crust on the pepperoni pizza. He got the thicker choice, as he doesn't like really thin. Probably not the best place for him with thinner style crust. I would order again. They also have sandwiches and calzones according to the website. read more

Donatos Pizza - Large pepperoni pizza, cheese bread with marinara sauce, small half veggie half cheese pizza and a side salad. - Pizza Near Me - Jacksonville Beach, Florida

Donato's has definitely become a local favorite and I can wait until they open their new location in Mandarin just off San Jose on Old St Augustine Rd across from the Big Lots Plaza. Although the Pizza is delicious and, I'll be so happy to save the extra 12 miles of travel to get my Donato's fix! I highly recommend grabbing the family or friends and pick up a few pizzas, their freshly made subs and that Cinnamon Bread!! read more

Glad to have more tried multiple menu items from Donatos. I think the most important thing to remember when ordering/eating Donatos is that this is NOT New York style pizza. This is thin crust pizza from the Midwest. With that said, my favorite is the Cauliflower Heat pizza. If you like spicy, this is it. Plant based sausage, jalapeño, crushed red pepper and pepper jack cheese (in addition to the normal cheese they put on the pizza) on a cauliflower crust. I opted to sub tomatoes for the pepper jack since there is already cheese on the pizza and it was fantastic. They gave me a free cauliflower heat on regular crust as well bc they messed up making it the first go round. Comparing the two, the cauliflower crust remains my favorite. Also tried the Nashville hot chicken pizza which was also good. Will be back for more! Donatos is thin crust with edge to edge toppings and cut into squares. Quality of ingredients is good and workers are friendly. I prefer the spicier pizza options here since the sauce is sweeter than I normally prefer. If it's your first time, get the cauliflower crust or the original thin crust. The thicker crust is still thin but soft. Toppings are pretty evenly distributed on each piece. read more

Tried a third time - ordered 2 fir $12 subs once more. This time we only got one sandwich. It just gets better and better. Bye Donatos. When you have a moment, please send the other sandwich I paid for... I called the store and it said press two to speak with someone and it rang about 100 times and no one came to the phone. read more

We had a taste for some pizza a couple of weeks ago, and we are close to the beach so we looked in Yelp and Donatos came up. I was skeptical because of them being famous for the square slices, I am not a square slice personal but I was able to go in and get the regular slices. So my wife ordered a pepperoni pizza, I got mines special, it had chicken, extra cheese, with banana peppers. It was great, I wont be eating pizza for another 3 months because I am focused on getting my body right for the summer time. But when my weakness comes back in 6 months, I will be going back to Donatos. read more

Best pizza in Jax. Hands down my all time favorite spot. Double bacon pizza with pineapple never misses. So good.

Went to the 1st time yesterday and had the wings. Smallest wings I've ever eaten. They were like eating a half wing. Wings flavor was OK. Hope the Calazatos are good read more

I placed a large order for an event at my house and asked that it be ready by 7:15, as everyone was arriving at 7:30. I arrived at 7:12 and the young lady behind the counter told me that it would be a couple of minutes. At first, I was frustrated thinking it would not be ready. I was pleasantly surprised my order was ready at exactly 7:30. I sheepishly apologized and can only say that they were 100% true to their word. The pizza was delicious, on time, and everything went off without a hitch. Thank you!!!!!!!! read more

I picked up late dinner from Donatos on moving day a few weeks ago. I called and placed the order for pick up because we are outside of the delivery area. Six hungry adults were able to share 4 pizzas and we still had some leftovers. Here's what we ordered: Large Pepperoni - My personal favorite! I love the small cupped pepperoni slices they load on this pizza! Large Hot Chicken - Hubby's top pick. Perfect heat with a nice cool down coming from the pickles and ranch. Large Hawaiian - This was a bit different for me but I still enjoyed it. The shaved ham and pineapple were very good, the cinnamon takes some getting used to. My sister really liked this one. Large Cheese - Can't go wrong with a classic. Very tasty! The cheese had such a unique flavor and everyone loved it. They have perfected the thin crust in my option. You don't get an extremely thin cracker style crust with Donatos so even people who don't like thin crust should give them a try. read more

It was a winner for me! I chose to dine at home with my Donatos order, and it was great. The 'buy one get one free' pepperoni classic definitely made us all happy. It had a deliciously crispy thin crust around the edges and tender towards the center. The pepperoni was cooked into little cups of perfection. The works was piled with veggies, meats, cheese, and was definitely a winner. read more

One of my favourite pizza places in the city! The ingredients feel so fresh that you don't feel guilty about a heavy serving of that pizza. Love a plain cheese pizza and other veggie options along with some cheesy garlic bread and the regular breadsticks too! Their marinara is also yum! Donatos never disappoints read more

My very first Donato's Pizza Jacksonville Beach experience was today during Florida Georgia Gameday - very impressive and truly memorable!! My experience speaking with Miguel for my order placed via phone for 2 pizzas and 2 family packs for BBQ & Naked wings was excellent - with a 15 minute promise ready time, I was psyched to make the Donato's trek today. When I arrived, I was greeted immediately by both staff at the registers and felt like a "regular." The establishment is immaculate and I noted (for future eat in visits) the plasma screen already playing the college football games! In addition, Donato's is in the perfect co-location beside The Engine 15 brewery and terrific outdoor seating! I was pleasantly surprised that the owner Justin brought out my order personally and took the time to chat with me about his business that he started in June 2020 and his involvement/sponsorship of a local Flag Football Team as well as Patton Park. Lots of goodness here! So not a surprise that the food is supremely delicious! Loved the gluten free crust Hawaiian with savory Ham, pineapple and Donato's special add of Cinnamon! The thin crust pepperoni pizza was very tasty as well - the square cut slices were perfect to maximize pizza for everyone! The wings are sizable and very moist/tender - loved both orders of naked and BBQ wings! Hands down Donato's is my new all time fav Jax Beach Pizza and wing establishment! I highly recommend checking out Donato's if you haven't done so - you won't regret it!! read more

This location is not close to my house- but is closer to my in-laws~ so I took an opportunity to order when I had to pick parents up from the airport! Easy, delicious dinner. I called in my order and had a special coupon thanks to Yelp. They have a drive thru- which is VERY CONVINIENT! I pulled around and they had just finished slicing up my pizzas! I ordered the Chicken-spinach-mozzarella pie on hand tossed crust for me and the serious meat for the men. Mom wanted a ham and cheese sub and I couldn't not order that cinnamon dessert!!! My car smelled like pizza heaven driving back to parents house- I was practically drooling by the time I got there! Flipped the tops open on all the boxes and John laughed at me for ordering dessert, because I had said I wouldn't do that.... and then I did- because I am a baked goods addict! What is my favorite food??? Carbs- all the carbs!!! I loved my pizza- the chicken, spinach, mozzarella pie- I had leftovers for lunch and it reheated just as good! Mom- who insisted on a sub then saw the serious meats pizza and snagged a couple pieces in addition to her sandwich- had me thinking why did you need a sub??? Oh well. The dessert- we all made room for and there was none left! Seriously that good. 4 people- too much food = leftovers for the next day. But we finished it off as happy little pizza lovers! read more

I went there last week for dinner and was not disappointed. We order a bunch of different things as we wanted to try a little bit of everything. To start the salad, was really fresh and tasty, lettuce was super crunchy. We were told their most popular pizza is the founder's favorite, which we ordered and did not disappoint. The banana peppers were perfect and pizza was super cheesy, just the way I like it. Their garlic bread was really good too, came with a cup of marinara sauce for dipping... yummy! The meatballs appetizer was a nice portion for the price, definitely order some! Finally the chicken wings, were my favorite, we ordered the bone in wings with chipotle rub, so tasty, different flavor profile from the traditional buffalo style wings. Overall, we had a wonderful meal, everything was super tasty, I will definitely be back. read more

This pizza has become a favorite! We drive from St. Augustine once a week or so to eat here! It's always delicious and the staff is awesome!! The restaurant is always clean. We have learned to be patient when it comes to Donatos. We order on the drive down and then usually only have to wait 5 or 10 minutes once we arrive. The pizza is absolutely worth the wait!! My favorite is the chicken bruschetta My husband loves the hot chicken and the Hawaiian. Their appetizer meatballs are so so good and we have to get the cinnamon bread read more

Out of all the pizzas I've eaten in town, this is by far the best. Extra sauce, well done cheese.

Solid Midwest pizza. For those of you from the East Coast, this pizza has a much thinner crust, uses real crumbled sausage (not a sausage link cut into slices) and is cut in squares (save me the middle pieces). Pizza was pretty good (doesn't compare to Rosati's - but that's further away and in the opposite direction) place was very clean, but not what I expected.....Not really a place to dine in - more of a take out place....and no fountain drinks - just bottles and Pepsi products :( We'll be back for take out.....because average Midwest Pizza is still better than the best NY/NJ in my book any day. read more

Ordered 3 pizzas from here and they were delicious. Had the Margherita, the Chicken Spinach Mozzarella and the Hot Chicken. They were fresh and full of taste. The tomatoes on the Margherita and Chicken Spinach really made them fresh. The pickles on the Hot Chicken really worked and added a cooling element to the hot. The order was easy over the phone and the pickup window was great. Today was a 5/5. read more

I was in town and trying to decide something to eat when my sister mentioned Donato's had a Hot Chicken Pizza but it would be a 30-45Min drive. Really...Hot Chicken on a pizza? Did I have to think twice? Nope. We placed an order for pick up and 45Mins later, we arrived but our pizzas were not ready. We had to wait an additional 20 Minutes in the parking lot until our pizzas were done. We had decided that we would eat a couple slices in the car so we could taste it hot and fresh. We ended up ordering the Hot Chicken, Pepperoni and a Meatball Pizza. Also, I wish we could have gotten their signature thin crust, but because we were buying pizza for a few members who don't like thin crust (boo to them), so we went for the Hand Toss. The Hot Chicken pizza was so good! I hate that I couldn't have another slice of it because I wanted to try the other 2 pizzas. I should have saved that slice for last! The pepperoni was good, but to me, it wasn't anything special. The meatball had a lot of flavor. They used a very good tasting meatball. Would I make the drive again? No, but if I am in the area, I will definitely pick up another Hot Chicken Pizza! read more

If I could leave zero stars I would. I ordered on line to pick up at the window. When I got to the window it said please ring bell for service. The was no bell to ring. I sat in my vehicle for 5 minutes before someone showed up at the window. After giving my name it took another 4-5 minutes for her to get my order. She handed me ranch dressing when I ordered blue cheese for the wings. I left the window and thought to maybe check the pizza because of the lack of customer service at the window. I ordered a half and half pizza with multiple toppings on both sides of only to see that one half was just cheese. Missing 5 toppings. I then drove back up to the window and again no one was there to assist. I honked the horn several times before the same girl showed up to the window. I showed her the pizza and asked why half the pizza was just cheese. She said she did not know and asked me what toppings I did order. I asked her why does she not look at my order?? She said the order says "error"??. I asked for some sort of refund and she said her manager was not at the store and could not help me. Some of the worst customer service I have ever received. And on top of all that the pizza was average and the wings were cold read more
