    Pagliai's was a very special experience for our group. It was a favorite college hangout for a friend of mine, and she hadn't been back in years and years. We were fortunate enough to get a table right away. We ordered one old-standard and one more adventuresome pie. We also got the garlic cheesy bread. The kids loved the garlic cheesy bread, and we all loved the pizza. The Philly Cheesesteak pizza tasted even better as leftovers than it did in the restaurant!

    Great food! Drive 40 minutes one way to eat this as much as possible. Favorite pizza around.

    Only been there once for lunch. The lunch special for $7 is a great deal (small one topping pizza). Outside is cute. Inside is functional. Staff was friendly. Was pretty busy. Thin crust. Parking was the hardest part. I am excited to take my family back there.

    Best of all around and it has a very long history at being the best family friendly seating with outstanding service. Your pizza will never taste any better than a Pagliai's

    Ive tried many a slice in town, and nothing has come close to the perfection of this pizza! I can't even decide what part is my favorite.. the cheese that's browned beautifully so the flavors pop? Or maybe the sauce that's not too heavy or too light? It could be the crust that i wish never ended. I've never had a better pizza!

    Pagliai's was our first stop while visiting my boyfriends college town of Mankato and 16 years later, he says it's the exact same as he had remembered it. we sat at his favorite booth way in the back and ordered a 10" taco and 10" philly steak with a side of cheese garlic bread. when i tell you that the cheese bread had the most magnificent silky thick cheese pull of my lifetime, i mean it! can't go wrong with a lot of cheese and the reminiscent comfort of food from a previous life that hasn't changed a bit. 10/10 stars!

    A great atmosphere for a casual, low key pizza and beer. Decent crust, good cheese, sauce needs some options/improvements. Beer good.

    As you can see on the picture below - our Granddaughter loves their 🍕 pizza. On Thursday’s & Sunday’s with a Large pizza, you get a Pitcher of Beer for .25cents - You heard me 👍 right!!! *My hubby usually gets the Sauerkraut, Beef, Green Peppers & Onion pizza and I usually get the Hawaiian Pizza with onions. We end up taking some home and usually eating it for Supper the next night….

    Great pizza on Sunday evening. Faster delivery to hotel than expected. The garlic cheesy breadsticks with Canadian bacon was so good. And the works pizza was superb. We will definitely order from here again when we are in the area.

    The pizza is great, but i am here to tell you about the poorboys. Uhmazing. The hot poorboy is my fave, i make a special trip here every time i am in town to get one. A culinary delight.

  • 5/5 David R. 11 months ago on Google
    Works Deep dish with added Jalapeños. One of the best pizzas I’ve had lately and great crust!

  • 4/5 S H. 8 months ago on Google
    Wait staff were very friendly, attentive and fast. Food was at our table in a flash. Pagliais has been my nephews favorite pizza since he was in college in the 80s. He'd give it 10 stars if he could. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is from personal taste. The pizza had thick tomato sauce and it's not something I care for. Tons of toppings and cheese tho!

  • 4/5 Frank F. 6 months ago on Google
    Great thin crust pizza. My 2 kids, 14 and 10, and I got the Maverick pizza and a couple of sodas. We loved the pizza and it reminded me of college pizza I had in Iowa City at a place of the same name. Coincidence? Maybe. Service was courteous of the college kid variety. They were pretty busy bussing tables and stuff so... Pizza and a couple of sodas plus tip came to about $45.

    This place was a go to staple when I was in college. My wife and I stopped for dinner tonight after being in town for the first time in a few years. Our pizza came out very undercooked and was not at all what I remembered about this place.

  • 1/5 Khyra B. 1 year ago on Google
    Order pizza from this place they said 45 mins to an HR and came an hour and 20 mins late. Tipped them over the phone when I ordered my pizza and it arrived with no toppings on a slice. Like it was scraped off with someone's finger or something. Disgusting and horrible service I took a photo

  • 5/5 Mike C. 1 year ago on Google
    Don’t miss out. By far the best pizza place in Minnesota.

  • 4/5 Missy I. 1 year ago on Google
    We went to Pagliai's for the first time since college, and it was pretty good! We ordered the house salad and a Sweet Heat pizza. Everything was great!

  • 4/5 Robert S. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a pretty good lunch here yesterday. The spaghetti was just a little wetter than I like, but still good. The Taco Pizza was ok but I probably wouldn’t order it again. My buddy loved the Philly Cheesesteak and says it could be one of the best he’s ever eaten. I would come back again if I was in the area.

  • 5/5 Evelyn H. 2 years ago on Google
    Super busy on a Saturday afternoon. Probably explained by the quality of the pizza. Everyone loved it. No gluten-free crust for me so I settled for a salad, which was expensive but fresh and tasty. Server was frazzled but very attentive.

  • 4/5 Robert P. 1 year ago on Google
    It was busy when I was there but it two hours to get our food. It was good but a little over priced. For noodle and sauce. We did get a salad, witch was good. So over all it was ok. Would go back and would recommend.

  • 5/5 Craig A. 2 years ago on Google
    Best pizza I've had in a very long time. Craft beer on tap for $5. Will definitely be back.

  • 5/5 Darrin B. 2 years ago on Google
    We had to hunt for a parking spot, but it was worthwhile. The interior is not fancy, but service was quick, the beer was cold and the pizza was FANTASTIC.

👍👍 Wow! Picked it because the reviews looked great after moving my younger sister into college at Mankato. We had 7 of us go and it was fantastic. Nothing disappointed from apps to drinks to entrees we couldn’t find anything to complain about. Some items our group didn’t like but the majority did so I...
