I frequent the UPS store next to NL and after checking them out online decided to order some gluten free pies. Super helpful that they do not cut the pizzas (to protect against cross-contamination), but give you a pizza cutter! The store is a normal pizza pick-up location with some seats to eat inside. The GF pizzas were tasty, nice crust and toppings. Way better than the national chains and better service too. read more

Lack of toppings for the price. I think they forgot to add cheese! Literally sauce and a light sprinkling of toppings. Cheese sticks were decent, but the pictures of the product did not match what we got delivered. read more

Had 2 small pizzas, one thin crust and one gluten free. Thin crust was excellent with their Italian sausage and black olives. Nice balance of cheese, sauce and toppings. My wife really liked her gf crust which is almost as good as the regular crust. My only complaint is no indoor dining. Pizza tastes so much better fresh from the oven rather than pulled from a box. Location is convenient for guests at the hotels surrounding it. read more

I'm in town for business. I've been looking for good pizza for quite some time. I'm in the hotel and I order delivery from Northern Lights Pizza online. My pizza was delivered by a super friendly young man. My order was exactly how I ordered it, complete with the extra condiments I ordered. I've read a bunch of reviews about this place and I can't help but think that these people have no idea what in the hell they're talking about. this is one of the best pizzas I have had in a very long time. The presentation of the pizza is awesome. It looks like it would taste incredible and it does! I will definitely order pizza from here again in the future! You are missing out if you don't try this pizza. read more

I was really disappointed with Northern Lights tonight. I love their pizza and breadsticks and was excited to have it for dinner tonight. I went into the Ankeny location to pick up my food and noticed that no one in the store was wearing gloves as they were prepping the food. I noticed one guy pull up his pants, use a microwave, and grab ingredients to put on someone's order all with his bare hands. Needless to say I did not eat the pizza I had picked up and instead went to Papa Murphy's. With all the illness going around, it's not worth the food safety risk. read more

Food was very good. They were a little behind on the order but busy. That can only mean that they are well worth the wait!!

First time ordering and did online web order. ETA was 12:10pm and came at 12:17pm. Ordered the Scooby Snacks "grinder" and Grinder pizza with Parmesan crust. Both were delicious and hot. Blows away all the pizza around here and ignore the cry baby bad reviews from the kids. They like dominos and Costco pizza. read more

I have ordered from Northern Lights Pizza for delivery many times. This time I ordered 2 medium pizzas and breadsticks almost 1 and half hours ago and still have not gotten my order. Called and all I was told was driver was running late. Should have it in 30 minutes. I have always enjoyed their pizzas but this will probably be the last time I order fir delivery. read more

I keep hearing northern lights pizza on the radio all the time so I gave it a shot and my first experience wasn't that great. I got a medium size Louisiana chicken I didn't add anything extra as I wanted to enjoy the actual work of the chef. And I see almost half of my pizza is just crust as you see in the picture. And I literally ‍ thought I spent 16$ for this medium size pizza. For a person like me I am not a big fan of crust if I was I would have just baked bread at home. I do like the Cajun seasoned chicken. But I won't be going back for this crusty pizza that's worth 16$. What I would pay is 12$ at most. read more

Scooby snacks are a favorite of ours but the regular pizza is nothing regular. Been going here for years!

So I thought I would try Northern Lights pizza tonight as it's always advertised on the radio. Since we moved our location was on Grand Ave. To my dismay it was highly disappointing due to dough was not fully cooked and the pizza was super greasy! Not to mention if I wouldn't have asked for my change back I would have paid lot more than what I expected to. Too bad because I was really hoping to have a better experience. read more

Tonight was my first bad experience with this location. I love this pizza, but was met with a driver who seemed annoyed that he was driving and a pizza that was not at all warm. I also did not have any garlic sauce nor was asked. read more

In fairness, my review is on a delivery order and food always loses something from the kitchen to the door versus to the table. I ordered the Hawaiian pizza with a hand toss crust. The presence of the pineapple overpowered the other toppings of Canadian bacon and green pepper. The crust was a little soggy and toppings feel off when I tried to pick up slices. The taste was delicious, so I will try this place again in person instead of ordering from my hotel room. I must confess that I added the brownie bites as a special treat. They were definitely yummy chocolately, but were slightly underbaked. I will visit soon to update my review. read more

Ordered just a single medium 2 topping, went to pick it up and they threw in an extra one with no charge, they were super nice and the pizza is pretty dang good. 10/10 would recommend & or return. read more

Just passing thru. Ordered online for hotel delivery. Food came hot and in record time. Ordered the pulled pork pizza. TO. DIE. FOR. Pickles on pizza?!?! Yup. Balanced out the sweetness of the bbq sauce. Perfection! read more

Ordered online and had the nicest, most polite service ever for delivery. Knew it was going to kind of be a wait with the holiday weekend, it still arrived it a very reasonable time. Breadsticks and pizza were piping hot and tasted amazing. Prices comparable to the big box places, but the flavor and quality so much richer. Plus there are SO many more options. Having recently moved to the area I'm so glad I decided to shop local, this is my new go to pizza joint. read more

We are new to the city and trying different places. We ordered delivery and like the option to order online! The delivery driver was prompt and courteous enough to call and let us know when he got to the apartment complex! The pizza was meh for the price. The thin crust pizza was on the verge of burnt. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't that good either. read more

We've ordered northern lights a few times to make sure we didn't have just one poor experience. The commercials, and seeing delivery cars around, are tempting. But the food just isn't good. The pizza itself is little Caesars quality, at best. The biggest issue is the grease. Everything is drowned in "butter"/grease. Leftovers can't be stored in the cardboard pizza box because it's dripping in grease. Everything that comes into contact with Northern Lights boxes must be deep cleaned because of the grease. Just gross food. We're not ordering this anymore. read more

This was my first time ordering from here. I figured we would try something new. We ordered a medium taco pizza and an order of cheese sticks. The order took a little over an hour to get to my place. The total was $22.84 before tip. The cheese sticks seemed old and the taco pizza was extremely greasy. I guess you just can't beat good old Casey's taco pizza. read more

Terrible customer service. I have ordered from this location at least 10 times since moving to my new home. Never had any issues, I called to make my usual order on 1/23 and they said I was outside of the delivery area. The manager was an ass and said they made a mistake the last time. I asked about the many other times and he said he didn't know. They said my address was out of the way. All I know is they can go F themselves and I will never give them another dime. read more

Make this your go-to for delivery! We've ordered from them several times, and it's always been hot, fresh and amazing. The pizza-like menu items are just as good as the regular pizza. So, unlike some other pizza chains, there are so many options other than just a plain pizza. We've liked the Scooby snacks, which are similar to a calzone, but much longer. The meat was really generous, and overall cooked perfectly. We also really enjoyed the rattlesnake pasta, just spicy enough. All of the cheesy, garlicky breads are amazing! Overall, everything's fabulous and great to indulge in. read more

Took a chance first time on Northern Lights, but I should have stayed with my Dominos or a HyVee or Costco take n bake. This was definitely the worst pizza I have had in Des Moines. Warning: if you like crisp pepperoni on top, this is not your place. Pepperoni mostly below the cheese. If you like fresh mushrooms this is not your place. Canned mushrooms under the cheese. Dough was soggy and seemed not fully cooked. Just an overall bad experience. I'll definitely stick with Dominos. It's not great but it's consistent and crisp pepperoni every time. This place was a total disappointment. read more

This is my favorite local pizza place. We have only done pick up so I cannot really comment on dining in (is that even an option?) or having delivery. Positives: 1. The taco pizza is my absolute most favorite taco pizza EVER. I love that not only so many toppings come with the taco pizza but also that they come on the side. Taking a piece of pizza is truly like building your own taco. 2. They are serious when they say the pepperoni pizza has "double" pepperoni. 3. We have always found the wait time for food to be short. 4. Quality is consistent 5. The garlic butter sauce is pretty darn delicious, you can even buy an entire bottle from them if you would like. 6. Did I mention I LOVE the taco pizza? Negatives: 1. The specials are pretty lacking and I have never seen any deal for specialty pizzas or anything with more than 2 toppings. 2. Their mushrooms come from a can. I realize that it is just my personal preference and not that big of a deal, but I think they are slimy and gross. read more

This place reminds me of an upscale papa John's almost the customer service is above your average piece of customer service very knowledgeable associates and very courteous and friendly I am in town for a few weeks and I will definitely return here for repeat business just based upon service alone not to mention to pizza is outstanding as well I didn't get his name where there was a taller gentleman about 240 pounds who really impressed me with his Knowledge and friendliness 2 thumbs up read more

Absolutely love NL pizza so the experience I had tonight was very disheartening. I asked if the Verifone credit card unit accepted Apple Pay and the person wanting my money said no it did not, she then added that the owner does not believe in Apple. Seriously? THAT is why you don't have a machine that accepts Apply Pay? Shame on you. Maybe your customers shouldn't believe in Northern Lights... read more

This was a goldmine find on an evening walk, the food was absolutely delicious and the staff even better.. Once they realised we were indeed tourists from Australia, they went out of there way to explain what all the dif food was and even gave us a few samples with suggestions.. We most definitely enjoyed there food and hospitality and for a pizza shop that mainly has phone orders and do deliveries it was 5 star in our eyes.. We were greeted and served by Michelle, she was the highlight to our visit.. 5 star customer service by her, fan-bloody-tastic... We need this franchise down under, with Michelle read more

Just had the most uncomfortable phone call with the people who work here. They had called and said we called their delivery driver a b word and they didn't want to bring back the root beer that they originally forgot... and continued to insist that we called the driver a B word! Which we would never do. We tipped the driver and no harmful names were said. Unbelievable that they would continue to insist we called their driver such a thing when we said we didn't multiple times! How strange and what a way to handle a call with customers. 0 stars for us you can get the same pizza anywhere! read more

I got a pizza and breadsticks which I picked up from the restaurant. I would have preferred delivery but $2.25 delivery fee seems high, especially since I doubt it goes to the driver so I still have to tip them $2.00 too. The online ordering system is a bit.... peculiar but I managed to navigate it and place my order easily enough. I will say I wouldn't mind if they were to participate with paypal (or maybe even grubhub) so I wouldn't have to track down my wallet and type in my card number when ordering. I am a big fan of the crust and the breadsticks, they are both really well done and taste fantastic. The toppings and sauce were fine, just nothing particularly impressive. I have been told that the Scooby Snacks are what I should be getting from here and next time I'll give that a shot. Edit: had to re-review after ordering today. The pizza I got was as expected but I didn't realize it was possible to sell wings as gross as they do. They are clearly from frozen thrown through the oven so they would have poor texture/flavor even if they were properly cooked but the batch we got today was not cooked long enough so they had gross texture and had sloppy and wet meat. read more

The food itself is good, but their delivery service is slow and their prices are bit high.

Ordered food was told it would be a 40 minute wait. It has now been an hour past the time and we still haven't received it. Called the manager and she said she would give us five dollars off our next order but would not reimburse us any money would or offer us a free pizza. Called back again and said the owner wouldn't offer anything either before hanging up on us. read more

I was really craving taco pizza. I looked into other typical places like pizza hut or other big box names-- I didn't find what I was looking for. Like the other reviewer, I noticed Northern Lights delivery cars more than others in this area. So I thought I would give them a try. I was impressed to see I could order online (lived in Washington, DC for 3.5 years and everything was order-able online whereas it doesn't seem to be the norm here). I decided to order some asiago bread sticks, a medium taco pizza, and a two-liter of Pepsi (because I guess it's not legal to deliver beer, so I'll take another carbonated beverage). I was quoted a delivery time of 40 minutes. When the pizza arrived 30 minutes later, I was happy to feel the heat radiating off my pizza and a chilled Pepsi bottle. The taco pizza came with the toppings (lettuce, tomatoes, Doritos) on the side with lots of taco sauce packets. The pizza itself was smothered in delicious cheese with lots of ground beef and onions. It was tasty! I ordered it as a thing crust, but with so much cheese the crust became very soggy quickly. I think a hearty crust would stand up to the cheese or I could ask for less cheese. It was a good pie and taste great. The bread sticks were tasty too. It had some oregano or something delicious like that sprinkled on it. And they were like hand rolled logs of delicious bread. And there were so many that I can have some with soup later this week. The delivery driver was polite, though you should probably have your own pen just in case. I don't fault the delivery driver-- ball point pens are fickle beasts. I think Northern Lights just became my go-to pizza delivery. read more
