    Donatello's is great! Excellent pizza and even better wings. Try the Cowabunga sauce (its a sweet & spicy wing sauce). The owner is very friendly and always open to offer suggestions. He came by and checked on us frequently. Ate there every day of my visit to Niagara Falls because we enjoyed it so much the first time. We will definitely be back.

    We saw the reviews online and decided this was the place to eat pizza. Did not disappoint! This place was amazing ordering was easy. The staff was wonderful and very helpful! The food was even better. My family couldn't wait for me to take the pictures before they dug in. My family could not stop raving about it. We had a 70 year old, A 43 year old and a 14 year old all enjoyed. So young to old all palates satisfied.

    We were in town for our anniversary and decided to try it out. To say we were happy with our experience is an understatement. The food was great and the staff was very friendly. We will definitely come back next time we are in town.

    Great service from the entire staff. The pizza was good, and according to my sons the hot wings were great. I recommend this for anyone visiting and looking for a casual, low key place to eat with great service.

    We arrived when the place was closing in 20 minutes. It was 2 hours prior to the posted hours, but they were short staffed. We were told we could do to go orders only. We were starving so we ordered our pies and waited. Then the owner came out and talked to our party of 16...6 englishers and 10 of our Amish friends (what a crew!) He had us come in past closing, let us sit, brought us drinks, napkins, plates, and even a cool puzzle for everyone to solve. He chatted and made us feel so welcome even past his closing. We were so tired (we had walked 7 miles that day around the falls). And the pies...yummy!!! We had a basic cheese, a pepperoni, the Greek, and a white pizza with chicken. Loaded with toppings and so delicious. And it was great cold for breakfast too!!! Will definitely return when we go back up. Recommend for the service and the food!!!

    Great local pizzeria. My wife and our friend were visiting the Falls and I looked up the best reviewed pizza shop in town, which led us to Donatello's. Super friendly staff, delicious pizza and wings. The TMNT decor gets extra points from me. Will definitely stop here again next time.

    Look here buddy....Niagara can get grizzly away from the tourist stuff. But Donatello's is where its at. It doesn't look like much on the inside. The pizza is bomb!!!! The manager guy is great! Go here over any other pizzaria. You can bring your own beer to drink!!

    Decent food. Great staff. We stopped in for lunch and ordered the 17" Italiano. The outside of the building is inviting. The inside needs deep cleaned in order to accommodate customers properly.

    Food was AMAZING!! Best pizza I have EVER had. My husband loved his steak and cheese as well. They're also so nice here! Customer service was excellent. We will be running here next time we come back to the area. Donatello’s is a must visit!

    Local pizza spot. Good food and friendly staff. No frills --Yes, there's some TMNT paraphernalia inside. I loved it! 🍕 PIZZA comes out HOT and the cheese is plentiful. The crust is crispy on the outside and then soft on the inside. Perfection. 🍗 WINGS also were tasty. We got the garlic one and the honey BBQ. I preferred the garlic. 🍔 BURGER was solid. Not the best burger, but what would you expect from a pizza spot? Still, it was well made and hit the spot. Fries were medium cut and hot and crunchy on the outside. Staff were polite and funny, and they didn't hover. The place is small inside with limited seating. They have two bathrooms, individual.

    This place was AMAZING. Hands down the best pizza and wings I've ever had. We were so excited to be in New York for the first time and eat new york style pizza in a place called Donatellos 🐢

    A great local place with delicious food. The sausage hoagie was great. My son had the Buffalo chicken wrap and enjoyed that too!

    Went for the first time this past Thursday! The outside and inside look pretty normal nothing special and at first we thought they were just doing pizza by the slice (which they just had cheese and pepperoni). However, one of the employees got super excited when we wanted a speciality pizza (wish I got his name it was so cute). We ordered a chicken finger pizza and 15 minutes later I got the BEST pizza I’ve ever had. This place doesn’t look like much but if you go to Niagara and don’t check this place out you’re missing out!

    We were visiting Buffalo, and this place had lots of reviews. The owner and customer service is 10/10 vete kind a s helpful. However the restaurant is pretty old with flies flying around inside. Food was too greasy and heavy for me! You can literally see the oil on the pizza. Wings were good. Parking is street parking. Washrooms are available

    The staff is so friendly and service was pretty quick. The pizza is delicious 10/10 enjoyed this small restaurant and it was cute seeing all the ninja turtle decorations! Definitely recommend if you need a bite to eat the chef salad was also excellent 👍

    Service was quick and very friendly. Pizza was amazing! The wings were delicious, buttery and very crispy. We would definitely come back when in the area.

    Today I ordered the large pie and 20 hot wings combo with a steak and cheese sub. The pizza tasted doughy and averaged, nothing worth buying again. The wings was good but they were hot in flavor. The steak and cheese sub tasted like three slices of Steak-umms . I did not like the sub and would not get it again. Menu prices online should updated.

    My wife and I were visiting Niagara falls- a lot of places closed early- so we went here because we were really hungry. I won't lie- I didn't have a good first impression- the place looked dated and a bit run down- but let me tell you- the family running the place was one of the nicest groups of people I have ever met. They were warm and welcoming and they honestly made us feel at home. Their sandwiches were amazing and obviously made with love. The prices were fair-unlike most businesses in the area with disgusting prices in hopes to get an extra dime out of you. The prices were good. Amazing restaurant- if I ever return to Niagara Falls- I will be back.

    Great local pizza place. The pizza tasted good and was not overly greasy. They make their dough fresh daily and that makes a big difference. Staff was friendly and cheerful. Seems to be a good place to work. Will definitely eat there on my next visit.

    Awesome pizza!! I ordered delivery from Donatello's as I simply felt like staying in at the hotel and watching a movie. Donatello's delivered and exceeded all of my expectations. The pizza was glorious and so damn good. They were quick and the pizza was just right. The service is great and they are good people. I highly recommend going to Donatello's Pizza. Thank you for taking care of The Captain. Best of luck!!

    We were weary travelers and a party of 7 The entire staff was so kind and welcoming to us. The food was fantastic! We ordered a lg square cut pizza , 3 orders of mozzarella sticks and 20 wings with the cowabunga sauce and they were delicious! The owner brought puzzle tricks to our table along with maps of the city and brochures which was very helpful.Wanted to eat there again one more time before our trip was over but didn't get the chance before returning to NC. Thank you for making our first meal and experience in Niagara NY so special and a great memory for our family!!

    Delicious and authentic buffalo chicken wings. I love the cow- something sauce better than honey garlic - too sweet for Asians hahaha. It's a very good restaurant to visit overall.

  • 1/5 Ryan S. 2 years ago on Google
    So if you care at all about atmosphere then you should know…you may end up watching people take trash out, hawk loogies, and smoke while you eat and these are kitchen staff. The food is average, a lot of people gave it high reviews but it might be a little inflated. The final thing for us was finding a hair in our pizza. We hoped it was going to be better but it was a one time deal in stopping. We won’t be back. :-(

    A good pizzeria with authentic NY style pizza and some chicken wings too... if you like pizza it's worth a try.

  • 4/5 Fishlovme P. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the few places my family and I found open on a weekday but I can't believe they closed at 7 pm and stopped taking orders at 6:30! This pizza was really good. I'm glad my family and I found this place while staying in Niagara Falls. I wanted a sit down restaurant though and this place was better for takeout than it was to sit down with the family. The booth seats and tables to eat on were very small. We decided to take the pizza with us back to the hotel room. If you're looking for a nice sit down pizza place this isn't it, but if you just want real good pizza I highly recommend this place! The staff was very friendly which is big to me too.

    One of the best pizzas I’ve had in my life! Perfect thickness, crust, and cheese. Sweetest servers and staff. Do not miss this place if you visit Niagara Falls. ❤️

  • 5/5 Ashley B. 2 years ago on Google
    Donatello's is Delicious! We found this place while we were staying in Niagara Falls and decided to try it because it has excellent reviews. The reviews are definitely accurate, we loved our food! We ordered mozzarella sticks, coleslaw and a cheese pizza. The sticks were good, the coleslaw was perfect. Most times I eat coleslaw in restaurants it's very bland and disappointing, I'm always searching for coleslaw that tastes at least similar to my grandma's coleslaw. Donatello's is the closest to hers that I've tried. It's just a little sweet and not completely smothered in mayo, I loved it. The pizza was also delicious, it came out hot and fresh and perfect lol. The sauce isn't thick and chunky, the crust is soft with a little crunch on the bottom and crust. My family 100% recommends going to Donatello's. It's a great little, high quality pizza place.
