    Pretty solid Neapolitan pizza, although it's not my favorite style. I went for a long run that finished in Canal Park (not Grandma's) and felt like an entire pizza was a great way to recoup the calories. The first few slices were great, but the pizza got cold fairly quickly. I'd also add that the staff seemed a little irritated when I came to pick it up, but not enough to put me off of the place. I ate some of the pizza inside, and there was some cool decor on the wall, but it was very loud and didn't feel like a place you'd want to stay in for a long time. Not sure when I'll be back, but it's worth checking out if you're in Duluth and prefer Neapolitan style pizza.

    Tomasso Pizza and Caesar salad
    Jen W.

    Great little casual spot for lunch. Ordered at the counter and had an easy time finding a seat. I think we hit it around the lunch rush but our order didn't take too long to come out (maybe about 15 minutes). It's basically all self service, they call your order number and you go to collect it along with plates, utensils, and napkins. It was a busy place with lots of families and young kids but not too loud. The Caesar salad was okay - definitely needed a bit more salt and pepper but it was a very generous portion. We LOVED the Tomasso (prosciutto, goat cheese, arugula, and crushed pepper) and the employee special was also quite good. The crust isn't super thin but it is structurally sound which is nice. 3 pizzas + salad was the perfect split among 4 adults. Keep your receipt for the bathroom code if you need it! Also has a 3% credit card fee.

    I see why it's the top pizza! So, so good. From the pizza quality to the service, everything was excellent. We went on Wednesday which means it was pepperoni special day! The pizzas are 9" which normally would be personal-ish sizes so we got two: pepperoni and the Tomasso. OMG. Both were great, don't get me wrong, but THE TOMASSO: goat cheese, red pepper flakes, prosciutto, arugula... perfection. The crust was chewy and delicious. On the pepperoni pizza, the mozzarella was fresh and you can just taste the quality. They have daily specials and I joked to my boyfriend if we lived here we'd come weekly just for the deals. They also have (local?) ice cream and ice cream sammies!! One of the neighboring tables got cheesy breadsticks that looked so good and I also read about cinnamon sticks that are probably also delicious. If it weren't for the chocolate malt that was still lingering from earlier in the day I'm sure we would have ordered more. I'm also intrigued by their "famous" Caesar dressing and the Lift Bridge Root Beer. We spent $50ish dollars for two pizzas, a soda, a beer, and tip. Worth every penny. Update - it was also delicious later, cold, as leftovers.

    Rustica Salad,  Side of Caesar Dressing, Extra side of wood-fired salad bread
    Melissa M.

    We ordered takeout for dinner and walked across the street from our hotel to grab the food. It was ready fast during one of the peak dining times on a Saturday evening. The food was piping hot even after walking across the street, everything looked handcrafted and the quality was top notch. I got the Limone pizza with added prosciutto and a side of homemade Caesar dressing - 10/10 would get again. My partner got a build your own pizza and it was really tasty but the only bummer was the amount of sausage as a $2 topping for a 9inch - it looked like a pinch of sausage on top of a 2 topping pizza. Still tasted great I just think he'd choose something other than sausage next time. The cheese bread was good, crispy and seasoned well, a nice size for sharing with a few people. Their Rustica salad was really tasty with the vinaigrette and definitely big enough for sharing, and the bread bits on the side were a nice change up from your average crouton. I loved the homemade Caesar dressing for dipping my Limone pizza and cheese bread - definitely more of a strong aromatic flavor than your typical bottled Caesar but it tasted homemade and fresh and it was fun to try something different than Ranch. They have a section outside for patio dining on the nicer days, great location right off the water, nice spot to try for an upscale pizza night whether you dine in or take out.

    This place was recommended by a fellow coworker when I was working in two harbors. Very good pizza. I wish they would put spinach on the menu as a topping. Not sure when I would make it back to this area. But I would definitely have this pizza again

    Margherita
    Sophie S.

    Service advertised as fast, but took 45 minutes. Guess they are popular tho! Margherita pizza was good, could've used more basil tho. Their crust is delicious and perfectly cooked. Plenty of outdoor seating on Canal Park, and cute indoor area. Self-service ordering

    The Donatella with a side of homemade Caesar dressing

    Best pizza and service in town! This family owned business knows how to put out amazing products and treat their customers right! Support your local businesses!!

    Delicioso! Nothing more to say. If you look for a good and quick food to eat around Canal Street, this is the place to go. Enjoy.

    Caprese Salad
    Stacie W.

    I stopped in for lunch on a recent trip. We were going to have a big dinner later, so I just needed something light to hold me over. I ordered the caprese salad which came with rosemary bread. It hit the spot! The tomatoes and basil were very fresh. The mozzarella was rich and creamy and the balsamic was sweet. The rosemary bread was a little surprising. I thought it would be thick, but it was like a pizza crust with no toppings. It was very good, and was great to have as an accompaniment to the salad. I caught a peek of the pizzas at a table next to me, they looked pretty good too!

    Cheesy garlic bread sticks with a view.

    We ordered pizza to be delivered. This is a great service. We wanted to use the outdoor patio at our hotel. The order was delivered on time. We ate outside and enjoyed the pepperoni and green olive pizza along with their delicious cheesy garlic sticks. We would eat this pizza again for sure.

    Margherita pizza and Pepperoni and onion pizza

    Pizza was damned good. Top notch for sure. The sauce and crust don't get any better. This place is nothing fancy and isn't really a sit down restaurant. You order your food and pick it up from the same counter. We were in town two nights and liked it so much we got two more pizzas as we were headed out of town. Ambiance nothing special but just good food.

    Went because of the reviews and it was what I hoped for. The wait time wasn't bad, like 5 minutes, and it actually tasted more like a personal sized 9" NY style pizza which I'm a big fan of. That soda, not sure where it's from, but it was liquid candy. I sat outside and everything just worked out...even with parking right in front.

    I've had a lot of wood fired pizza in my life and this place serves a very nice example of it. I had a margarita pizza plus peppadew peppers (hard to find) and sun dried tomatoes. Very close to perfect. We also had a white pizza with artichokes, a bit short of chokes. Plus we had the house salad which, while it was premade, was very good with a nice light dressing and different color tomatoes. We also went old school and had a bottle of Chianti with it. The perfect accompaniment at a reasonable price. Two things turned me off a bit: the decor is pretty basic and you order from a counter. In addition, you are pretty much forced to tip despite the fact we got no service, picking up our food, cleaning off our own table etc. If this place doesn't pay a living wage, why do they put that on me? PS there is a recent one star review of this place. We're sort of wondering if that's from a legitimate reviewer.

    Margherita. Fresh mozzarella that even our four-year-old loved!

My meatball parmigiana hoagie was pretty decent! I will say it was the end of the night so the bread was a little bit hard. But as I ate the sandwich, sauce soaked in the bread more which softened it up. The potato chips were good too. The meatballs themselves were really good. I also loved the amount of cheese on the sandwich! Their menu is soooo extensive though. I want to try so many things on here. My glass of Pinot Grigio was $12.50. I also Ordered a seltzer that was on draft that ended up being $5 because of their Monday deal. I would absolutely be a regular here if I lived in the area.

Looking past the nightmare parking (which isn't their fault) our group of eight was promptly seated and our server greeted us and took our order. We got our beverages quickly and no issues there, the server was polite and courteous and smiling and we thought everything was fine. Half an hour passed, no food at all. Okay I look around maybe they're busy, nope only saw two other tables and maybe 4-5 people in the bar. So we continued to wait. An hour passes no food but the server checked in once or twice and got us water refills. After about an hour and 15 minutes I walked by the kitchen (trying to find our server) and the servers were all in the kitchen playing on their phones and appeared to just be chatting. A few minutes later we approached the hostess to ask why it's been over an hour and 15 minutes and no food. Just like magic the food came out a few minutes after we inquired. So the food overall was (mostly) okay. The pizza no issues, a couple other dishes no issues but the stir fry ingredients were poor quality (barely any rice, the woody end of the asparagus you usually throw out instead they put in the stir fry) also one of the pizza's was a size smaller than we ordered and the boneless wings were basically in the biggest pool of sauce like it was way too much sauce and because the insane amount of sauce (like almost the chicken was floating in it) it was way too salty and unable to eat it. We ate our what we could of our food and tipped and left and all agreed it was not a good choice of place to eat and would never go back. Worth noting one last thing.... About 20-25 minutes after we arrived a table of 4 people sat next to us and ordered shortly after they arrived. We were there for roughly an hour and 40 minutes total and when we left that table still hadn't gotten their food either. On the positive side, the server was polite and the pizza was decent. AVOID this particular Green Mill location unless you want to wait over an hour and 15 minutes to get your food.
