I have tried Margherita pizza all over the world and this place has my favorite. I thought maybe it was just me but my friend agreed, so good! The cheese sticks were good (I liked the sauce best).
After an afternoon of walking at the Mall of America, we decided to try Pizza Novara which is conveniently located across the Mall. We sat at the bar after placing an order for the Novara Deluxe pizza which has pepperoni, sausage, onions, mushrooms, basil, and their house red sauce. Our pie was cooked to perfection with fresh ingredients and a well done crust. We also ordered the meatballs as an appetizer which were fantastic! They have a great assortment of food other than pizza such as sandwiches, salad, and pasta dishes. This place is worth checking out when you’re in the Twin Cities.
This has become my new favorite pizza place!🙂

The pizza is delicious! Amazing flavor and the perfect crunchy crust. We will be back for the pizza! However, the service was disappointing. The restaurant is adorable and well decorated but the employee taking our order never smiled or said hi. We said it was our first time and they didn’t say anything to us. Would have been a perfect experience if the staff was friendlier.
If you are ever visiting the mall of America, I highly recommend skipping any restaurants in the mall and taking the short drive over here. We got the pepperoni pizza and buffalo wings and both were incredible. They have a classic thin crust New York style pizza that checked all the boxes. Wasn’t the best that I’ve had, but definitely satisfies you if you’re craving this type of za.
What I thought was truly incredible were the wings. They say they marinate the wings for 24 hours in buttermilk and you can definitely tell. The exterior is perfectly crispy, but once you bite into the chicken, it explodes in juices. Definitely will be back for the wings if nothing else. Would love to try the pasta dishes on the menu too as it all looked good.
Price wise was very reasonable. Total was around $45 for pizza and wings, which could easily feed 3-4 people.
Was seriously surprised by the size of the slices. I always go for the pepperoni. The pizza is delicious, the perfect amount of everything. Not to greasy. Nor is it over bearing with certain flavors. At least for my palate. The prices are good. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting. Hope you enjoy as much as I did.
This place is awesome! I just had their lunch slicer combo. Great price for the amount of food. Pizza I got was their deluxe, it had a nice crunch to it with great flavor. Caesar salad had quality lettuce, delicious croutons and the sauce was spot on. Definitely worth checking out for lunch. I’ll be getting a whole pizza to go here soon for sure.
I got the gluten free cauliflower crust pizza and the crust was very chewy. I did not enjoy the pizza. We also asked for a cookie to not be included on my son’s plate because none of us could eat the cookie and they included one anyway which was annoying. My husband and son enjoyed their pizza.
