I just "like" pizza. When my family wants it I will have a piece and go about my business. This pizza I LOVE! The flavor, the light sauce and the crust. I am craving a piece now! The owner is a hoot! My son lives downtown and has been hyping this place up to us. I will also try the white bear location where I live. read more

Giant slices of NY style pizza of a variety of toppings, calzones and more. New location, just around the corner from The Palace Theater and steps away from the downtown Saint Paul skyway system. This family business, started by Pops some 40 years ago, was a long time anchor for the skyway food court and recently relocated to a street level, street entrance, pizzeria. Plenty of seating inside and outdoor patio too. They sell whole pizzas, and specialize in the one slice or two slice lunch specials. It loud because the staff is boisterous and regularly engages customers. Some are old friends, others feel like friends while selecting toppings. The pizza is delicious. read more

Pinos Pizzeria - Inside the new place. - Pizza Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

See all

Tried this place after the gigantic protest and it was excellent! They were so swamped at the time they were only serving cheese or pepperoni slices but no complaints it was EXCELLENT! I definitely want to go back and try their other options but I was in disbelief of their NY style slices! I want to go back and still craving. The owner was friendly and fun, and they played Italian music. Very cute pizzaria and loved the vibe. read more

Pinos Pizzeria - Cheese pizza slices - Pizza Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

NY pizza for sure. I'm from New York City and this place delivers. I was surprised at how big each slice is and I return routinely for my pizza fix during lunch. I recommend Pinos for any pizza fanatic to tell me any different. It's quite a big place and very clean too. read more

Just got into town and the hubby was craving pizza...and Pinos was fantastic! Great NY style pizza AND incredibly warm and welcoming staff. We came in later in the day, a bit of a gamble, but they had an alfredo pizza (yay! since I don't eat much red sauce anymore), sausage, regular cheese and pepperoni slices available. I hope to try a calzone next time we come through the city. read more

Best slice in all of Saint Paul. Staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Plenty of places to sit and they work fast

Best customer service i've seen in a few years. Pizza is amazing. This place deserves every single dollar they earn. 100% recommended

Great service with large slices at bargain prices. I will definitely be back. Added bonus got my steps in.

The real deal! Quality pie and service. I'll definitely be coming back when I'm in the area

Good pizza!! Almost felt like i was back at home and in NYC. As a person from the gritty streets of the bronx i can definitely vouch for them. This has been the closest thing to a nyc slice i've had in a while here in MN. I must say that this place is a pain in the a$$ to get to. I walked literally 20 mins trying to find the place..i would give 4 stars but the pizza was too good. And they're quick with it, got my slices hot and ready in like 3 mins or less. They are located in a dining area i forgot the name. I guess if you find parking closer to that, youll be straight. read more

Very legit pizza! I'm glad I was persistent enough to find it. The guy that waited on us was great, along with Italian owner. Great prices, enormous sliced and real Italian feel. Just go! Grab 2 napkins! read more

Pinos Pizzeria - two slices of pizza on a paper plate - Pizza Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

Love their pizza. $5 gets you a slice &a drink. Way better than Red Savoy's. Faster. Cheeper. Tastier. & they have all the sprinkle topping (ie garlic, crushed red pepper, Parmigiano, etc) available for free. Love it! read more

I'm a native New Yorker & had essentially given up on finding truly great pizza in Minnesota. I stumbled on Pinos by accident & can genuinely say it's way up there with the best pizza I've ever had, in any state. I don't know what their secret is, but I'm now a loyal customer & feel everyone deserves to know how wonderful this place is! Their pizza is truly New York Style done perfectly. read more

great pizza & gotta say some friendly/funny workers, not to mention fast aswell. would recommend to try

This was my first time trying out Pinos. My coworker and I decided to get their combo, 2 slices and a drink. We decided on the combo because she doesn't drink soda and just wanted water. So, we assumed that both slices would be the same size and water was free. That was not the case. Her slice was way big and my slice was way small. I had to eat a snack a few hours later. The pizza was not very good either. After my coworker paid, we grabbed two cups. 1 for water and 1 for my soda. The owner(I assume) told me that we only paid for 1 drink but he would let me "slide." I was confused because water is always free? I then proceeded to tell him that we only have 1 soda and the other was just water. He repeated himself and said he's letting me "slide" this one time. The customer service ruined it for me. As I walked by Pinos again, I saw the same guy picking a piece of sausage from where the pizzas are and ate it. I would suggest that Pinos refrain from rude comments like this and try not to eat potential customer's food. read more

A shop in the St Paul Skyway with amazing pizza, great prices and smiling service. My husband eats there a few times a week and especially enjoys the sausage and chicken Alfredo. He's a pizza fanatic and this place is at the top of his list. I like the thin but soft crust and thought the owner and his son were charming and made for a memorable experience. read more

This place pleased me greatly. The crust got a little overwhelmed by the toppings but I didn't even care it was so tasty. They have parmesan and garlic and crushed red pepper and oregano on the side. The 2 slices and a soda special is now $7. Slices were huge! Worth checking out if you're in the skyway. read more

Pinos Pizzeria - Spinach & Tomato - Pizza Near Me - Saint Paul, Minnesota

The best New York style pizza in the cities. Pino and his gang are friendly, gregarious and have a way with their pies. The crust is crunchy and thin; it has a charcoal like flavor from their high oven heat. The sauce is not too heavy and has excellent flavor. Their sausage has a spicy kick. They also make a tomato spinach pizza, as well as mushroom and pepperoni. For $5 you get two huge, foldable slices with a soda! Pinos is in the Norwest Crossing in the St. Paul skyway system and is worth stopping by whenever you're downtown. read more

You couldn't find a more quintessential New York pizza by the slice establishment. The Pinos are an amazingly kind and energetic family who not only deliver a consistent and delicious product but also keep an eye out for their customers and make the food court a safe and happy place. With such outstanding pizza, it's definitely worth regular visits when in Downtown St Paul's skyway during the workday. My tummy is very happy! read more

By far, the best NY-style Pizza in Saint Paul, and possibly in the cities. I used to go here pretty regularly when I worked downtown. The price can't be beat (two slices and and soda for a fiver). It's a shame that this place is only open for a few hours during the lunch rush, otherwise I'd go there regularly. If you happen to be downtown during on a weekday during lunch, you need to go here. read more

Pinos is a good option for pizza by the slice for lunch. I paid $3.50 for a pepperoni and mushroom slice today. Frequent toppings that I've seen are: cheese, pepperoni, pepperoni and mushroom, buffalo chicken, sausage, and vegetarian with spinach and tomato. The employees are friendly and always upbeat. The pizza is hot and freshly made. I've waited for it to come out of the oven a few times! The pizza portions are generous. The service is fast. The pizza is a little greasy for me, so I blot it with the napkins available. Once I do that, I'm in pizza heaven. If you are not familiar with the Saint Paul skyway, almost every business closes around 2:30 p.m. read more

You want authentic Sicilian style pizza?? This is soooo the place to go! They make an absolutely delicious pie! Bravo!! Vivacious and friendly staff, Pino's Pizzeria is one of my favorite place to get pizza in St. Paul :) read more

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. Delicious pizza reminds me of home (East Coast). Friendly atmosphere, fun employees and good prices. I work downtown and treat myself to this amazing pizza about once a month. Keep up the good work guys! read more

I love their Calzones! Their Pizza is great as well. It's fun to watch them work together, that's family. I go there at least once a month, I'd go more often if my waist line could afford it. read more

Pino's is the best deal going in the st. Paul skyway. Not a place for business lunch (its in a food court) but great for a quick bite. Employees are very nice, pizza is hot, cut big, and delicious. Two slices and a drink for $5.50 beats a $5 footlong any day. Don't let the five stars fool you into expecting the best pizza ever. It is still a food court pizza joint, but an exceptionally good one. read more

These guys make the best Italian/New York style pizza ever. Super good deals for the massive amount of pizza you get. These are big slices you get! They also have a wide variety of toppings. The buffalo gorgonzola pizza is my favorite. They're also super cool guys and know their regulars. read more

Slices of tasty pizza. Calzones. Fast. Good value. Friendly staff in white t-shirts who look like they'd beat you up if you looked at their wife/girlfriend/mom/sister the wrong way. read more

I've been living in the Twin Cities for over a decade and this is the first time I have found true NY Style Pizza.(I'm from Jersey) Has to be the best pizza ever and the owner and staff are nice guys.Tuesdays are double punch card day.Any two slices and a soda are 6 bucks.I wish they opened a Pino's in Minneapolis. read more

Okay, we weren't expecting this place to be in a food court. Putting that little surprise aside, the pizza was delicious, and the meal deal was cheaply priced. The owner of the shop was a character with a thick Italian accent. Loved it. I just wish they actually stayed open longer than 2 pm. We got there when there was only one salad left and 4 pieces of pizza. We took what was left and they pulled down the bars while we ate in the common area. They were rushing to get over to their restaurant on the other side of town. read more

Hands down the best NY style pizza in Minnesota! The crew here is also the most friendliest bunch of guys you will ever see "working!" From the fresh ingredients to the awesome value, Pino's is a great place for lunch all the time! read more

Delicious pizza, very friendly service, offered up a $1 discount because he assumed I'm a student, which I am!

The stars say it all. Excellent pizza. As good as Broder's in south Mpls. I've had both the pepperoni and cheese slices. It is as good as the best pizza I survived on when I lived in Brooklyn, NY. read more

My husband always a big fans for Pinos Pizzeria, he always get it when no work day for him. It is pizza, so I thought must be nothing that impressed, but I was wrong. I ate the cheese pizza and like it a lot. I think it is delicious and cheaper than Cossetta. Lunch deals: buy two slices pizza free pop, $6. I gave it four stars because the business hours are short and only open during weekday. read more
