    wings no sauce
    Chara B.

    Decent for what it is! Not the best pizza in the world but it is very decent pizza, the ingredients are fresh and the dough is always good and fresh and crispy. It's right down the street from where I live so I can't complain. The sandwiches are not good. I feel as if they use low quality ingredients for them and they just aren't as good as they could be. I also enjoy the wings a lot. A good spot to either visit for a quick snack or to get delivery from out of convenience. Staff is always nice and easy to work with. It'll keep me coming back for sure!

    I really love the food here, especially the pizza. It's hard to resist its next-door sibling Hazelwood when you're in this little spot across from the Megamall, but this is a more casual environment than Hazelwood and the pizza isn't even the same as theirs. You order from the counter and they bring it to you at your table when it's ready. Each pizza I've had has been really good; it looks like they have a daily by-the-slice special but I've just been getting full 12" pies. Really nicely put together pizzas. I've also had the East Coast Sub, which is a twist on an Italian, and chicken wings, which were perfectly cooked but the flavor was nothing special. This is high on my list of places to go when I want really good pizza, I definitely recommend.

    I was happy to have had a chance to dine here and didn't realize it was A) so close to the mall and B) owned by Hazelwoods. I had initially wanted to eat here the night I got in but I was so exhausted I didn't have the strength. Walking in the place is cute, and they have a decent menu of items to choose from. I wanted pizza but not a whole pizza since I was leaving the next day. They have a fabulous (but limited) selection on a slice of pizza, salad and drink combo for dine in customers only. I went with that and it was only $12?!? amazing. It's fast casual so after I ordered and paid, I sat down at a table nearby. They also have a private brand of pop called Minnie-soda. I love it! I had the lemon lime which is their version of sprite/starry. Very good I must say. The salad was good and I couldn't finish all of it. I did manage to finish the huge slice of pizza I got which was greasy but fairly good. They seem to have good service here, so that was a bonus. I also loved their plates which are dinnerware that looks like paper plates! neat! Overall a great experience and I would recommend dining here.

    Cute spot right next to Hazelwood! I love that they sell pizza by the slice and are huge. I also tried the wings which were delicious and very crispy. You are able to dine in or take out. There is a bar and tv as well. Service was speedy and everyone seemed friendly.

    Medium pepperoni pizza
    Tower T.

    I got a medium pepperoni pizza and it had a very good taste. Nice sauce, nice cheese, a nice crisp to the pepperoni, and the bread had a nice oily quality (a good thing). I would return and get it again many times.

    We were visiting mall of America and wanted to take a little break from the mall for lunch. We found this spot on Yelp and it was wonderful! It's a really pretty and modern space and they have a great selection of Italian pizza and sandwiches. We got the large margherita pizza and it was delicious and huge!

    Hawaiian  Pizza
    Jim A.

    Came here for dinner. Got the chopped salad and a Hawaiian Pizza. The salad had a lot of different ingredients and was enjoyable. The Pizza was nothing spectacular and I probably would not order it again. I was not impressed with their pizza.

    I'm glad we were able to stop here for lunch as it's been on my radar for a long time. The place is nicely decorated, clean, modern, airy. You order at the cashier station and your food is brought out. My meatball sub was very savory, well presented on a fresh hoagie bun. I really appreciated the extra tomato sauce. My sons's cheese pizza slice was also very tasty and generous in size. The desserts didn't look freshly prepared so I passed. Definitely worth a try if you're craving Italian.

    Constance M.

    Yes-we came back. Same trip. This time we had salads and pasta and took desserts back to our room. Delicious. Highly recommend.

    Medium Meatball Pie
    Ron W.

    I travel all over the country. Pizza Novara is one of the best pizza places in America. Their Meatball Pie is the best pizza I've ever had. The staff is friendly and the atmosphere is very welcoming. Definitely give them a try if you're in the Twin Cities area. You will love it.

    Meatball Hoagie
    Eric T.

    Great Meatball Hoagie. Bun was toasted well. Meatballs were moist and flavorful. Love that the sauce is on the side so the bun doesn't get soggy. Dined in their outdoor patio area which was nice. Well Done!

    Medium pizza half bacon. Wings
    Mai L.

    Ordered ahead and it was ready pretty quickly. I went in and let the guy at the counter know I was there to pick up and I was in and out within minutes. There are a couple spots reserved up front just for takeout. I really enjoyed the wings. Lots of sauce on them and juicy inside. The pizza was good - pretty standard. I got bacon on half which was good. Definitely hit the spot!

    We ended up here because we tried to get into Hazelwood next door (had a gift card) and it was packed. We were glad it worked out this way so we could try a new place. Our gift card worked here as well so maybe same owners? You sit anywhere and order at the counter. Very casual vibe. Your food and drinks are brought to your table. We started with a Greek salad which was delicious. It was big enough to split. Fresh ingredients and lots of toppings. The dressing was quite good as well. For pizza we chose pepperoni and black olive. Again, lots of toppings. Crust was a bit thicker than thin so hand-tossed-like. Very good. Parking in the nearby ramp is easy. Service was good. Nice stop.

I used to live in the area and when the small coffee shop opened I was so exited to have that in our community and was happy to support them - even if some coffee beverages were top dollar. I was in the area today, and decided to stop in since I no longer live in the area and wanted to enjoy a good brew. Unfortunately, the experience I had left me leaving with a bitter taste in my mouth - and it wasn't from the coffee. I thought it goes without saying, but when a customer greets you, you should greet them back, not just stare. It would be even better if your staff would greet each customer first - make them feel welcome. Maybe I'm a millennial channeling boomer energy, but for years I'm noticing the customer service disappearing from a lot of businesses. I love that connection, but I'm understanding that some people see only a paycheck and skid by with minimal customer service and that is the new way. I don't plan to visit this establishment again. I wish the barista with star tattoos would have put in enough customer service energy that she did with her impeccable makeup.

The atmosphere is fun and lively, although it does get pretty noisy, so it can be a little hard to hear at times. The food was delicious and definitely not your average brunch menu. Everything felt thoughtful, unique, and full of flavor. Most items are made from scratch, including the biscuits, the bacon, and even the hot sauce, which really shows in the taste. The Mediterranean tartine was a standout with the perfect balance of salty prosciutto and the sweet balsamic onion ricotta. The house Benedict was excellent and the hollandaise was some of the best I've had. The waffle was good but nothing especially memorable, it felt a little overpowered by the raspberry compote. The cocktails were fantastic too. The Orange Dream was the perfect brunch drink, light, creamy, and refreshing. Overall, a great experience with incredible food and wonderful service.

LOCATION Parking can be a little hard to find during peak brunch hours. But if you're willing to walk a block or so, there is a ton of street parking available.

It was clear they were incredibly busy. THE FOOD The food was great! On the pricier end, especially considering the mains did not come with a side. The nordic omelette was super tasty and very unique! My friend got the avocado tartine - she said it was good, but the avocado had oxidized and was a little off-putting.
