First time ordering a personal pizza (10inch) ... it was barely bigger than my hand and was over $15. It was equivalently to 1 & 1/2 of their slices. By the slice is really the only way to get pizza from here and not feel like you're getting ripped off. Although the size/price disappointed me I'll still be back, but I'll be getting slices and apps only.

OMG I cannot be more stoked! I have not only found a spot to get a gluten-free pizza, but ALSO with dairy-free cheese. For years I have missed being able to just pick up a pizza to go, being gluten-free and dairy-free, I typically make my own pizza at home. I have found my PIZZA GO-TO in Old Louisville! What I love even more is that it is a small business, with the coolest staff ever! The staff was super informative, patient, and overall had an infectious positive energy! They explained to me that the only gluten-free pizza size they offer is a 10" size. Their meatless meatballs are homemade, as well as gluten-free and vegan. They have numerous vegan meatless pizza toppings as well as vegan cheese. They make most items homemade and cut their vegetables freshly daily. They offer outdoor seating with a couple tables where you can sit and eat, the inside is small and has two stools where you can sit and wait on your order. You cannot go wrong checking out this establishment!

Cute little spot next to Mag Bar. There are two tables outside to sit at, but no place to sit inside & eat. There are a couple of stools instead to sit on while you wait for your pizza. We had the Sting Like a Bee. Wishing it had been a little more spicy. We also grabbed two single slices of pepperoni and one of sausage. The pepperoni was delicious! While we were waiting in line we chatted with some other customers who happened to be frequents there. They said the Buffalo wings are amazing.

Large Cheese Pizza $20 Mozzarella Sticks $6 for 6

Meh. Just okay -- I only ever order the cheese pizza / mozz sticks from here & they're just okay. If it's late, everything is closed & you don't mind paying $20 for a basic pizza, order here. It's right next to my house so it's convenient on a late night... BUT Papa John's $7.99 thin crust cheese pizza is 10x better if that tells you anything. Donisi's crust / breading has 0 flavor or oil which makes the food pretty bland.

Pizza with bacon and pepperoni
Stefini R.

I always wanted to try this pizza joint, as I live downtown and pass by it a lot. I ordered it for dinner tonight and was actually pleasantly surprised ! I can't speak for the interior because I doordashed it. The pizza dough was thin and it had a nice texture. The sauce had a nice flavor. My favorite part of the pizza I ordered was the bacon. It had whole slices of thick bacon on it. I've never had it that way in pizza and it really stood out to me. I also ordered the deep fried ravioli and those were packing with lots of flavor as well. Everything was really satisfying. I am a small person, but I ate the entire small pizza. With the thin crust it is lighter. I'd definitely recommend and I will definitely order again. Much better than any chain place!

But turn it over and ask yourself how hungry are you?

Walked in and got a large pepperoni and I got back home and went to eat and first bite an overbearing burnt/charred taste..yuck! Didn't have time to go back to the restaurant due to work, I thought everyone should know the disgusting truth and I intend to speak with management, is this your product? If you like crusty black ash the top was fine but the entire bottom crust is pitch black

Medium pepperoni pizza
Emily K.

I've had Pizza Donisi several times and the pizza is always great. I have no complaints about their pizza. They stay open super late which is a plus. My only complaint is the 3 cheese wontons. I tried them on my past visit and they were so strange. The wonton itself was nice and crispy; it was the inside that wasn't good. The cheese wasn't completely melted and there was a spice or something in it that gave it a gross taste. Their special wontons might be better, but I do not recommend getting the 3 cheese wontons.

A good pizza place on Louisville, KY. Ordered after a concert for some late night snacking in the hotel room. We got a large with pepperoni, sausage, and onions. Sauce was good, typical red sauce, with lots of Oregano. Decent amount of pepperoni and sausage, cheese. The 3 stars were for the crust, a thin crust, but just average. No taste, almost like a cracker, very bland. Rest of the pizza was good enough, but a better crust would've gotten the review to 4 stars.

Someone brought their wings to a pitch in. Never being a fan of wings, I thought I would try them…read moreanyway. Much to my surprise I really liked them. Crunchy breading, juicy and tender inside. They were not spicey or dripping in any sauce, just regular breaded and I thought "I am going to have to go to this place soon" After doing some research I found that they have drive thru only for dinner hours. So I made my trip down Broadway to Chicken King and could not miss the big yellow sign nor the already 7 cars in the drive thru. Since this chicken has a otremendous fan base, I considered myself lucky to be #8 in line as others pulled behind me. The menu is packed full of items, so my first tip is to look up the menu online before you go...less pressure once you arrive...lol I ordered the 8 PC box (regular) for my husband, 3 PC tenders (that comes with 3 potato wedges) for myself and a medium peach cobbler to share. I was very disappointed that the tenders were not fresh nor freshly breaded. They were pressed and glued white meat formed into a tender. I actually only ate one, shared one with my dog and threw the last one away. The potato wedges were the star. I should have ordered more of those. My husband, who LOVES fried chicken was not impressed. He said KFC and Golden Corral has better. The peach cobbler was average. So, I am sorry to summarize our experience as not having a reason to return.

Restaurant is pizza/calzone-focused, plus some salads, soups, and quality apps. The by-the-slice option for lunch is great, but I struggle not to get a whole pie anyway...the bee sting is probably my favorite "hot" pizza choice in recent memory (honestly think it's the use of fresh peppers more than anything, you can just tell the difference). Strong selection of rotating local brews. Order at the counter, no table service, but the staff is helpful and welcoming. Don't leave without stopping in the grocery. Lots of good stuff (cannot recall the cold brew brand they have there, but it's incredible), local meats and produce, teas, seasonings and sauces...lots of great and varying selections.

Shannon had an attitude from the beginning, but we brushed it off. Then we waited 55 minutes for his pizza and it never came out. He was the first to order before it got busy. Everyone else was served before him. Shannon, who took our order gave an attitude because we waited patiently while on lunch break. The fact that Shannon gave an attitude when he kindly asked for a refund was undefiled. I didn't even get the chance to eat my food because I was waiting for him to get his meal. The fact there was no communication even though I went up to ask for his pizza and was told it was coming and it never came! Better customer service on Shannon can definitely be better!

Royals is good, spicy food, served kindly and quickly. (It's a simple counter order and basic table…read moreservice kind of place. Not quite fast food, but nearly as fast and casual.) If you've not had Nashville-style Hot Chicken, Royals offers a great introduction and if you know what to expect, Royals delivers at a competitive level, in a city that has seen a fun history of competition in fried chicken. I recommend the X-Hot these days, but that's not where I started. Somewhat regular trips over many years have made that my goto favorite. (I have done the next and final heat level, Gonzo, once. I recall it was great. I plan to do it again. I save it as a cardio workout for the right sort of low other commitments weekend.) I recommend always checking out what the Sliders of the Month are. The monthly specials generally are quite special and have combined so many fun flavors over the years. Though my heart maybe belongs most of all to the Hot Fish, now no longer just a March special. It's hard for me to write about Royals without some form of nostalgia. This building is my neighborhood fast-ish food shop. It hasn't been Royals the whole time I've lived in the neighborhood, but it has made up for it with longevity in a block I've watched shift a lot around it. I miss some of the businesses that used to be on this block. i appreciate some of the new ones. It's been interesting watching Royals grow up into feeling like an anchor here. (I also still sometimes miss some of Royals original options like the hot tofu and some of their early sides, especially as someone who still ranks fried chicken places by their sides even this side of Yum Brands' Commonwealth-named chicken place also giving up on fresh veggies despite once advertising it never would. But Royals did recently graduate Hot Fish to the year-round menu to make it up to me, almost personally, so there are plenty of good changes as well over the years.) I look forward to how they grow and change in the future, and I hope they'll keep this block cool and with an easy spot for a neighbor like me to count on to catch a fast, spicy lunch or dinner.

They gave us an option to drink at the main floor bar, which seemed classy and had a stage for live music, or to go downstairs, which they said had more of a sport bar vibe. We chose the main floor bar because there were less people and we were helped right away. We got a couple drinks each and all were pretty good- no watered down drinks here! My favorite was the espresso martini. We also opted for the Doritos nachos which were pretty filling for an appetizer! The menu states it's for 3-4 people, but it was a good serving for just the two of us. It had Doritos, cheese, pickled onions, lime, jalapeños, and a mixture of beans and it was delicious. We overall spent about $70.
