    Garlic knots

    Stopped by Pizza Dynamo again recently for a Too Good to Go offering. We were waited on immediately and they had our order ready to go. Even though they were getting ready to close, it's always a fun atmosphere and I was excited to try some pizza I hadn't previously. Tonight, white mushroom pizza, pepperoni and Jalepeno and cheese pizza slices. All of them hit, really good white pizza and I was truly impressed with their standard cheese. It was fantastic. We'll be back, we did pick up, but I encourage you to dine in. I highly recommend this relatively new pizza gem in Jacksonville.

    Did not even order pizza because of how dried out, stale, and overcooked they looked. Visited last Saturday at 6:30pm, one would think that is a normal time to expect fresh pizza, esp with a hopping bar next door. When my husband mentioned to the pizza dynamo employee that she should replace the pizzas on display she just laughed. Incredibly disappointed.

    where's the cheese???

    It took for ever and the margharita pizza had no cheese!! just tomate sause and crust! Horrible

    Found this place on the One Bite app, which had a high score and great reviews. Doesn't disappoint! Pizza has a nice char, and flavor is on point. Good thin crust that holds up and doesn't flop. I am a little confused; however, the menu is Italian-inspired, and the decor, with cassette tapes and 1980s boom boxes, creates a different vibe. Then there's the Spanish music throughout, and the sports on all the TV screens. The personality conflict is maddening.

    Legit NY pizza. Great pies, good service, fun spot.. The recipes were brought down south from NY, this is the spot. My new go to pizza place in the city

    This place is soooo great ! Wow! I can't wait to go back already ! Pizza was amazing and delish ! For sure in my top favorite now! I love that you can just get a slice so you can get more than one ! Prices were great ! Workers were kind and service was very quick despite being very busy !I was so happy to see they were so busy on a Monday ! The vibes were so cool, fresh but retro ?! I can't wait to try out Pour, that is attached next door !

    What a great concept! A pizza joint and a pour your own alcohol combo spot. We went on the alcohol side and were able to order from a QR code which included both pizza as well as additional items. Pizza came out fairly quick. However, all the food came out at different times rather than the whole tables at the same time. I got two slices. The best one being the mushroom pizza, honestly it might've been the best slice of mushroom I've ever had. The hot honey pizza had a bit much honey. Like it was dripping off and I had to wash my hands afterwards. I would definitely go back if I was in the area and needed something quick to eat. Downtown street parking available. No charge on weekends. Place was packed on the Saturday evening we went. Fun vibes!

    I did my order online because we were going to be arriving 30 minutes before they closed. It was ready as soon as I walked in. Very friendly service. I love the online ordering option. Took the pizzas next door to Pour to enjoy a few beers and conversation with them. The pizza is definitely the closest to NY style I've had in Jacksonville. Thin but not soggy crust. Tasty toppings. Will definitely be returning. I easily found street parking but it was 8:30p on a Wednesday. At busier times, just park in the Vystar garage.

    Pizza Dynamo was a pleasant surprise! We decided to go for lunch last minute. It is connected to Pour Taproom. It's spaciou, you can get slices or whole pies. We had their pepperoni. Their slices are big and delicious. I really liked their sauce. Not too acidic. The crust was nice and crisp. Stop by if your downtown.

    Ok so here's the skinny one the 2nd day of the soft opening. This place was slammed! The staff hustled as hard as they could to get orders out in a timely fashion unfortunately the unexpected swarm of people overwhelmed them. That said, they kept a positive attitude, rallied and continued to bring out QUALITY food. Jacksonville asked for it and now they have it. A fantastic pizza place located in the heart of downtown. We ordered 4 pies. Cheese, Margherita, Pepperoni and Arthur (sausage and pepperoni w/ ricotta). Each pie was cooked to a delicious crisp. The undercarriage was perfection. The sauce wasn't too sweet or too savory. In my opinion it had the perfect zest. Overall the slices gives the vibe of the original Patsy's on 118th in East Harlem ( IYKYK ). DEFINITELY DO NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLACE!!

    Was kind of disappointed. The pizza tasted stale. The crust was very chewy. I feel they let their slices sit out for too long. I will go back to try a freshly made pizza. But this visit wasn't it.

    This is the second time we went back as the first time we never got to eat cause they ran out of what we ordered and had to refund us. This time we went in optimistic and ordered a whole pie based on reviews. We ordered the vodka lasagna pie, a slice of cacio Pepe and garlic knots. So here's the run down. The cacio Pepe pie was nothing it described. Tasted just like a plain cheese slice it was crispy tho and hot. More than I can say about the whole pie. Words like vodka and lasagna evoke a certain expectation and none were met. It could have been cardboard honestly and for a 30$!pizza I would expect fresh meat to be used. It def wasn't. We barely finished a piece each. Left most on the plate and left the whole pie on the table.the garlic knots were most flavorful thing we had but they were braids not knots but did have butter and cheesy flavor with a marinara. We left after I finished my split of Prosecco. And left it all on the table. Sadly we won't give it another try. It's sad cause it def has potential but. Considering we did t eat a 1/4 of what we ordered no one asked why or if things were ok or anything. We had to ask for flatware and I could t tell you who was in charge in there if you asked.

    If you're not going to stay open until 10 on Friday nights, please don't advertise that you do. Showed up and the doors were already locked.

    Amara Smith and I had a "Girls Date" for lunch today and decided to visit V Pizza in San Marco (off…read moreHendricks). I knew yesterday as soon as I saw the advertisement for the new specials I had to get Layla's Chicken Cutlet Sandwich. My daughter couldn't decide on a calzone or the Mac Attack Pizza and after some deliberation, she landed on the Mac Attack Pizza. We got there just after opening and they already had a few customers in the door, but we didn't have to wait long at all. Our food was ready within 15 minutes and brought out. The chicken cutlet sandwich was everything I had hoped it would be. Tangy, savory, and the cutlets were the perfect thickness. Full of great flavor and fresh mozzarella made this the perfect lunch today. The bread wasn't too soft, nor was it too hard. Baked PERFECT. I would eat this every single day if could. Amara loved her pizza and is excited to have some left over for later when she's playing her video games. I like mac n cheese, but generally I'm not a mac and cheese on pizza kind of gal, so I did not try any as of yet. Maybe she'll let me have a slice later? I was too stuffed from the sandwich for anything else. 10 out of 10 recommend and hubby is a little jealous we went without him.

The entrance felt unclean--glass doors, floor, and mats were all gross--and seeing rodent traps by the front door during the day was a major turnoff. It gave the impression that cleanliness has been overlooked. We enjoy the food, but until this improves, we won't be back.

She was patient and very helpful as well. I ordered a bacon and mushroom pizza. My go to pizza. The places is simple: ovens, slice station, and the prep counter. Exactly what's needed for a pizza place. The mural on the wall listed the 5 boroughs and had the Brooklyn Bridge, as well as the Statue of Liberty. I mean, New York is there. The pizza came out fast and I got back. Here's the thing: Florida is notorious for having lackluster pizza. There's no ways around it. The pizza was cooked perfectly, thin, and a thicker crust. Perfect for folding. The sauce: not too loose and not too thin. Good amount for pizza, regardless of location. Flavor wise, not bad. Cheese and toppings had the right amount so it could incorporate into every bite. Now going back to my statement on Florida pizza. It's better than other Floridian pizzas I've had. It scratched the itch and I definitely enjoyed it. They'll get my business when I come back to Jacksonville!

The ham was below average, with one hard bit. My wife didn't like that there was so little pineapple in it. Our Napoleon pastry was pretty good, and I might get it again ($5 for a small one). We both preferred it to the brownie ($4). I don't particularly like brownies, but this one looked particularly appetizing, and the order-taker said it was one of her favorites, so we tried it. That was a mistake. Perhaps I should have tried the mini cream puffs, which are a favorite of mine (3 for $5), instead. Among other things I usually like, they had carrot cake for $7 and a cup of cheesecake for $9 (which seems steep). Their fruit shaped pastries looked beautiful (and a couple next to us said they loved the mango one), but were $12 each. Their fruit-topped Danishes also looked delicious, but weren't available any more at lunch time. They also offer milk shakes and loaded (sweet) croissants. There are only four stools here next to a bar, if you want to eat in. The bathroom was pretty good. I probably wouldn't come here again, but if I were in the area I might try some of their other pastries or sweet treats.

    It's a tiny seating area, but the display cases will make you drool. Beautiful and very photogenic…read more A friend recommended I stop by when near the airport; happy I did. Julia at the counter must be used to first-timers She was so helpful and didn't seem put-out by all the questions. So many choices. See photos which are self-explanatory. While the fruit options are what they're known for, I thought them pricey, but ok for the optics, and a good flavor. All are made of the same stuff with the contents fruit-appropriate. I couldn't decide on just one, but with my only requirement being "not too sweet", I took the advice of a regular customer and got the lemon which was not too tart or sour and just creamy enough as to be likened to a creamsicle and also the recommendation by Julia who only asked: do you like coffee? To which I replied only with cream and sugar and I got that luscious lovely sl oblong confection. $24 for two pieces of delectable gorgeousness? I wouldn't do this often but it was a very satisfying bit of indulgence. Btw, they can't give you a cup of water, but you can buy a bottle of it. Or sit out back next to the pond with your own water bottle from the car.
