I visited this pizzeria while in Doral for an in person meeting at the Miami office for my job. I am not from this area so I went to a pizzeria close by from my office so it was convenient. The pizzeria itself was very casual but clean and the staff was very friendly and welcoming as I arrived. I had the lunch special which included a pizza salad and a fountain drink. I thought it was very good and filling the pepperoni could have been a little better, but overall the pizza was delicious and crunchy. The salad was also fresh and the dressing for the salad was very good Caesar salad style. The fountain drinks offered free refills, which was a plus when I'm back in the area. I will definitely be returning. read more

Ordered spinach and her calzone. There was no beef. The cook that also took the money has very dirty nail while preparing food with no gloves. The hamburger was good however. read more

I was staying at a hotel close by this gem of a authentic jersey pizza restaurant. I was greeted at the counter by Alex the owner who personally made me an amazing pizza and I'm grateful for the awesome conversation that we had. It was a very memorable experience and a absolutely delicious pizza. I will be back when I visit again. Thank you for the hospitality. read more

Amazing food and awesome service! The price of the food was great for a large pizza split between two people. I would recommend this for a quick snack to fill the pizza craving. read more

This place is my new go-to lunch spot when I'm on a break from my busy office work life. When you enter you get the cozy feeling like if you're in a NY pizzeria...but it's Miami!! I have visited this gem a few times already and each time I go I see frequent regulars stop by to dine inside or take out. They begin to chat with what appears to be the owner making the pizzas and the kind lady in the front taking orders. This proves to me that this place has loyal customers and I can see why! Loven Ovens offers New York Brick Oven style Pizza & Italian Food. they have a significant sizable menu with amazing options to choose from. In addition they have daily specials displayed on a board. Ive tried the "Hangover burger" , "Philly Cheesesteak" and the cheese pizza with sausages on top. Can't wait to try the other plates soon! This spot gets 5 stars for attention to detail, customer satisfaction, great service, and most importantly amazing fresh quality food. read more

Great Pizza, love the garlic rolls and the owner is a very humble and true Miami Guy, he wants to see others grow so everyone does well. Check it out, you'll love it!!! read more

This is the place to get your American food, best pizza and burgers. I prefer the homemade burger as this is the juiciest most freshest burger you can get around here in Medley. The space is big enough to bring your coworkers & friends. And the employees are always taking care of you. The music inside is good ole classics from the 80s-90s so you can jam out while waiting for your food. It's Best to say I'm LOVEN OVENS! read more

Loven Ovens - Homemade cheese burger - Italian Near Me - Medley, Florida

Loven Ovens is the Il Mulino of Medley (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hijJuTY6Csg) In a world of gas station restaurants, fast food, and industrial lunch trucks, Loven Ovens has comfortable sit-down dining, dim lights and a brick paneling in the bathroom. Oh and as an OCD foodie, they customized my dining order. This level of service is much appreciated when I need my Italian food fix, and I've been here more than once. A few things could be tweaked for a higher star rating though. Today I ordered my usual caprese; they call it a Crepe salad. The greens were all fresh, and the balsamic vinegar sweetly aromatic. Part 1 of my custom requests was plain rolls (instead of regular garlic) with regular butter. Score one! By the way, I also appreciate they have free soda refills and have raspberry iced tea. I also tried to order their bruschetta appetizer, but they were out by the time I ordered. Looking at the menu, I didn't notice if they had desserts either. It might be nice if the manager did a little walkthru with the clients as at other Italian places with their decor. Main course was a nice piece of chicken parmesan and spaghetti. They customized it with less cheese and more marinara, and the pasta was slightly past aldente. My chicken filet was was pretty sizeable but seemed a little thinner than I've had at other Italian restaurants. Their pizzas did look artistically prepared and I might try one of those next time (of course I might have had a Hawaiian some years back.) read more

Pizza is terrible. Sauce tastes more like salsa than actual marinara. Mozzarella sticks were cold. Wouldn't recommend.

This place is amazing, friendly owner that greets you with a smile. Food is delicious and better than most places in Miami for Italian food; Very affordable. Cozy place that gives you the feeling of a mom and pop shop. read more

I always stop in here when in the area, haven't had a bad meal yet. I'm hooked on the wings and salad but the pizza is delicious also. read more

Place is jam up. Small place good food. Woulda rated higher but they don't keep much beer instock.

We always come here for lunch. The pizza and pasta are so good!!! Very nice ambiance and great service.

I wish I could give this place more stars. Everything was made from scratch and it showed. Some of the best food we've had and the service was phenomenal. So glad we found this place! read more

Over priced and bad quality. The garlic rolls are sweet instead of savory. The pizza itself was very basic. I work in medley so my coworkers ordered from here to try them out. We won't be ordering again. We ordered two cheese pizzas and garlic rolls. The pizza was slightly better than little caesars quality which is bad to begin with. The sauce was sweet but had a weird aftertaste. The cheese itself looked orange and had a basic flavor to it. All in all this pizza is a 1/10. read more

Over priced pizza with terrible quality. I was so excited to try this place out since I'm a huge pizza fan. But was completely disappointed. I went firs time for a Hawaiian & when I got there they said "oh it's not prepared I totally forgot to" mind you I had called 30 mins before that & no one was there literally empty because it a little whole in wall. Then I said u know what I'm gonna give them another try with a cheese pizza light sauce extra cheese. Terribleeeee super saucy & 0 cheesy. I will not return. Bad bad quality. read more

I got the spaghetti with meatballs. The meatballs were nice and fluffy home made and well balanced, not salty yet not lacking. Tomato sauce was very good, kind of sweet. Spaghetti was nicely cook not overcook. Very good dish, large portion which included 4 sweet garlic rolls. Could easily feed two. Great price, under $10 lunch special. read more

Loven Ovens is a cute, family owned business. The staff is cool and very helpful. They have great lunch specials throughout the week. they are my go to for quick bite during my lunch break because they are close and very quick. They have the best garlic rolls, with a different take on it. I love their pizza, it is thin and crispy and always fresh. You can watch them make it right in front of you. I also had Loven Ovens cater for my job and they served over 235 delicious warm meals. They were easy to work with, and very accommodating! They were on time for the delivery and they made a wonderful lasagna. Great food and great prices! read more

I was in the neighborhood of this place recently and since I had read nothing but great things here on Yelp, I couldn't pass up a chance to try it. I wasn't hungry at the time so I just got one lice to go. The slice was a ham and the guy behind the counter added some fresh minced garlic to the it after talking to him for a while. We got into a conversation about the Canes and somehow that lead to me loving garlic but I digress. (Canes fans are the best) When I got my slice, it looked great with big chunks of ham but not a crazy amount that it feels like you are eating a ham sandwich with pizza sauce. The slice tasted like if an Angel came down from above and pooped on it!!! (trust me this is a GOOD thing) It was such a great tasting slice that I was extremely tempted to go back and getting a whole pie! I can't wait to go back and try some other menu items read more

You will truly get the best bang for your buck here. Small neighborhood pizza and pasta joint feel, the owner will serve you with a smile despite the fact that he is super busy. Whether it is carry out, delivery or sit in dining - you will not be disappointed if you are expecting good old fashioned Italian food. The pasta is good and the sauces are rich. The pizzas are very good and everything is simply... abundant. Check it out when you are in the area - it is well worth it. Good food, Good Service- Chef Ramsay would be very proud of this place. read more

Friendly staff, rich food, filling portions, reasonable prices, and clean neighborhood setting that is hidden in a medical plaza that is also a strip mall in Doral. During lunch, I had the manicotti ($6, comes with garlic rolls) with alfredo sauce ($1 more) and with a side of a caesar salad (.50 cents more) and I must say it was a good Italian-American meal. And for dessert, I was too stuffed, but the friendly waitress that was on top of everything recommended cannoli and tiramisu. For this genre of Italian food (think red sauce even though I didn't exactly order that), I have to say this may be the best I've had yet in Miami. read more

THE BEST CALZONE EVER!!!! The dough, the olive oil, the fresh garlic drizzled on top and the ricotta was a party in my mouth!!! This mom and pop place is a win-win for me. read more

Loven Ovens was discovered by chance. We happened to be in that strip mall one day and needed a fast lunch, saw it hidden next to El Tropico and since we weren't in the mood for Cuban food, Italian was definitely a wonderful option. Parking over the weekend or evening isn't a problem, but on weekdays expect to drive around the lot a couple of times. Honestly, its worth it, so come with a tad extra time to find your spot. Having tried everything from the pizza to the pasta, I must say whatever you choose will be a treat. I have found myself returning to my favorite dish there.. Tortellini with tomato sauce with baked cheese on top! Decadent? --insert noises by Meg Ryan here-- They give you a LOT of garlic rolls that are to die for. This is definitely not the place to visit when you are on a diet!! The service has always been good, the owner is always around and is a really nice guy, never seems frazzled and always very attentive to your needs. Its a very casual hole in the wall place, but the ONLY place in Miami that this Chicago girl can say competes with the places in Chicago. That, my dear friends, is a LOT to say. read more

Great food and selection. My weekly place to go. They also do catering which is great for my 30 employees that enjoy the pizza. Great burgers too. Highly recommend. read more

Placing the order was quick and painless. The food arrived in about 35 minutes the driver came to the door with disposable gloves on which I found to be amazing and really appreciate the precaution. The food was hot and delicious. Very affordable. I'm sorry this is a short review but for delivery it's a little hard. I would definitely recommend them for their tasty food but especially since they appear to be taking the proper precautions at this time. read more

This place used to be so great back when they were located off of 82nd Ave and NW 12 street. When I found out they had relocated to Medley and only a few blocks away from my job, I was excited. It became my Friday lunch spot. Their lunch specials couldn't be beat. However, the past two years it has gone downhill, unfortunately. The pizza is not at all the same quality as it used to be and neither are the garlic rolls. Cleanliness has gone downhill, too. The pizza doesn't have much taste and often times is either burned, dry, or reheated and then serves. Garlic rolls are not very flavorful either and taste like crusty dinner rolls. Not sure where things went wrong or if they changed management/ownership but it would be great if they could improve back to the way they used to be. read more

They say longing leads to desperation, and desperation leads to destiny. Whether you were destined to get that restraining order for stalking, or instead, like me, you find yourself back at loven ovens after many months later. It's been a long road since that ROTD, and i've had allll sorts of pizzas. I would be so bold to say Loven Ovens is the reason I started yelping and developing my palette. As many pizzerias came into my mind, this place started to slowly sink to the back of my mind and drop down in spots of my top 10 pizza joints. It's back on my top 5. The problem was I was trying all these different types of pizzas, for all these types of prices, and when I got too ahead of myself, I was cutting corners in my mind and justifying letting them slip into my top spots. Top 4 All I really needed was a perfect slice, for a perfect price, in my neighborhood. I found myself making all the necessary turns that lead to Loven Ovens without really knowing. Detour there. Car accident there. Traffic shortcut here. Highway exit there. 5 minutes later I have my pep slice, drink, and two rolls. Perfect. Top 3 Loven Ovens is the type of place where they make amazing food. And they just can't help it. With minimal effort. Perfectly cooked. Seasoned just right. The pizza is amazing. The rolls are the best, hands down. The purple drank you can get by the cups, sweet. Top 2 I never had to go anywhere and try anything. I have a feeling I would do well for myself in a small town in the south where people are perfectly normal, and thats ok with them. Only that would mean I would have to leave Loven Ovens. Never! #1 read more

Welp after a few minutes of writing my first review out of boredom sitting there for 20 minutes before I even got my food I have to change it now that the food is actually in front of me. First of all I shouldn't have to wait 20 min for pre cooked pasta. It's not even warm. It's room temperature. 2nd when I ordered my Alfredo with pink sauce and meatballs I was expecting a few golden brown meatballs sitting on a creamy pink bed of Alfredo pasta. What I really got was 2 meatballs grayish color seasoned with a lot of adobo. Pink sauce? More like ..... HMmmmm can't describe it. So watery you need a spoon. When u pick it up with a fork the mystery sauce slides right off. My lunch also came with 2 garlic rolls. I expected warm toasted buns with yummy garlic melted butter. What I got was a bread submerged in oil with salt and green flaky something. Wow this place went down hill. Now excuse me while I eat my room temperature box pasta. read more

Received my delivery order in less than the time quoted over the phone. Order taker was professional and explained all the choices I had, when I had questions. Food was really tasty. I ordered the calzone, cheese pizza and a wrap for my family. The seasoning on the calzone was what set it apart. Garlicky and salty without being too much. The only thing I would change was the grease, but pepperoni is greasy. So that's a nonstarter. The pizza was great. You can tell the marinara was made well and it was made in a brick oven which is the only good way to make a pizza. It's a bit overpriced as opposed to many other states I've been too but this is Miami. Miami lives in the overpriced and doesn't find that odd. All in all I would definitely recommend it. read more

Loven Ovens reminds of a typical upstate NEw York pizzeria. The flab ours are great. Not common in Miami. The pizza dough has better flavor. The may let it rest so that the yeast builds. The pasta (my boys had fetticunni Alfredo) is not the best. A little overcooked and too soft. I like al dente. The sauce Ok. We also had minestrone and salad. Nothing great, but you don't come her for soup. Really, it's the pizza. Oh. Bread rolls are fresh and taste awesome. Get a lot. A small eating area. Very casually. The do a lot of take out and delivery. read more

"1.5mi from your location" turned into 6 or 7... But I'm not complaining! Why? Because I just had a really nice dinner with my mom at this cozy little restaurant tucked away in Medley. How the first person discovered this, I have no idea. But thank you! This restaurant is decked with overt references to Italy, but serves New York style pizza. My mom orders tiramisu at EVERY Italian restaurant, and this time, I couldn't help but sample. One of the best! We ordered mushrooms in mozzarella, and pepperoni pizza. I really enjoyed the seasoning, and the pizza being loaded with cheese. Check it out. It's now my 2nd favorite pizza place in Miami! read more

My first time ordering here. I placed an order for pickup. First of all 2 different people asked me what was my order, then at the time of paying, the cashiers name Autumn requested a tip, I said no tip, you didn't service my food and you are rude, then she requested it again and I said No. Tips are earned is not an obligation. Maybe if they were nicer, and welcome people she would of received a tip. I live 3 min away from this place and I will never ever go back read more

This is a great place to go if you don't want to spend a lot of money or cook one night. We moved from the Kendall area 5 months ago and we've been looking for places in our area to replace our favorite eateries in Kendall. Cons: The garlic bread we got was very salty. Pros: The pizza and the steak and cheese sub were both very good. The bruschetta was ok. I would have liked it more if it had basil, but it was still good. The service is awesome. I would come to this place just for the service. We had our food to go but inside there were quite a few tables where people could sit and enjoy their meal. The place is nicely decorated as well. Their menu is so extensive, I would love to return to this place and try new things! read more

Stuffed in the middle of a basic shopping strip is this little golden nugget. Some of the best pizza in the area and with a slice and soda combo deal, it's hard to go wrong. Dump your slice with the garlic powder on hand for an even better experience if you don't mind the powerful punch your breath will be packing afterwards. Parking could be improved during lunch hours but the food is served quickly so it balances out. Owner is awesome and the staff is equally great. There is seating inside and outside. Hard to miss this place. I recommend it. read more

ALOT OF FAKE REVIEWS ON HERE! Love the garlic rolls there but thats about all! The customer service is horrible!! They are very disorganized and rude on the phone. I try to spend lunch time there and it takes my hour and more for average food. Strongly suggest not to go there because they will just ruin your day! I WILL NEVER GO AGAIN! read more

Some of the girls from the office and I ordered lunch from here today. We placed the order at 11:25 a.m. in an attempt to have our lunch arrive at a decent time. The delivery guy didn't show up until 2:00. The food that I had was nothing special (Though I am aware that it sitting in a van for over 2 hours may have taken away from the overall taste). I ordered the two slices of cheese pizza and a coke lunch special, nothing out of the ordinary. The pizza was forgettable, the garlic rolls that came with it were burnt and too hard to break apart. Needless to say, not adequate. I would give them another chance with the food by ordering something different if they didn't take so long to get to my office. When the driver arrived he didn't apologize or anything. We asked if he had gotten lost but he said he knew the area very well. Threw out the menu this afternoon. read more

My review is for Loven Ovens' food only, as they have catered a couple recent lunches at my office. I have yet to make it out to Doral to check out the place in the flesh. I've tried the garlic rolls, the Caesar salad, the pizza, the meatballs, and the baked ziti. And man oh man, are those some good eats! I could probably eat nothing but their baked ziti for the rest of my life and die happy. It's that good. The garlic rolls are the perfect accompaniment, thought I wouldn't mind a little bit stronger flavor. Overall, Loven Ovens offers delicious, filling, and well-priced Italian grub and pizza to fulfill all your future office-catering needs. I hope my office gets it again soon! read more

A really good pizza/italian place in doral, came here at the last minute and it was a really nice, neat little place with Miami sports pariphinelia decorated around, very clean and comfortable. The menu had a variety to choose from between pizza both traditional and unique, get it by the slice, different lasagnas, pastas, stuffed shells, appetizers, salads, lots of dessert which I will have to go back for except we were in a rush. They have tv's going on for all the sports fans an d something to please everyone. I ordered a veggie pan pizza, my b.f. got half pepperoni and half bbq chicken. Our order was hot, crust had a nice crunch and toppings were fresh. Cant wait to go back and try more and they have very reasonable prices. Thanks Loven Oven...will be back soon!! read more
