      I usually get the tomato basil pizza which is always great but tonight I tried the Quattro Formaggio and it was absolutely spectacular. Perfect amount of seasoning and the crust was just the right amount of crispy. Great Pizza!

      I have been going there for years and everything has been great. The last few times I Have been there the pizzas are paper thin. It look like kids are behind the counter making the pies. Something happened and it is not good. Will be go else where in the future.

      This is such a terrific pizza place! The owner Tom is devoted to his pizzas. I have had most of the specialty pizzas and honestly can say they are all delicious. My fav is the DaVinci. I am partial to white pizzas and all of those are super tasty. We had brought a bottle of wine in the past and drunk it there with pizza and I even brought a little candle. It made it very cheery. For a takeout pizza place, this is super consistent and quite reasonable.

      I have been ordering take out probably about 5 or 6 times/year from this place since I moved to the area about 7 years ago. Their pizza is traditional thin crust (I wouldn't call it "New Haven style" as one reviewer commented). It is good, not fantastic but definitely reliable. My Italian-American BF likes it in case that means anything. They have a lot of topping options (mostly standard stuff) but their menu offerings are good too. You can get white or red pizza. I would like to see them bring back FRESH mozzarella as there is nothing like toasty, bubbling, golden fresh soft mozz on a pizza. They do have a decent selection of salads that go beyond the expected iceberg lettuce and tomato garbage. I haven't had the calzones or other menu items so can't comment on them myself.

      I have tried a couple of the other pizza places around, even the new "wood fired" place in the next town (very dissappointing) but I keep coming back to Davinci. Pizza is ready quickly. Service is friendly. Prices are reasonable.
      I cannot speak to the eat in experience. I am not inclined to eat there because the atmosphere is anything but inviting. All hard surfaces like tile floors & gyp board walls - so it's loud and echoes like crazy. No significant decor, no personality. It is really one of those restaurants that is more of a to-go place. Occasionally I see people eating there but IMHO it's not really an ideal destination for dining in.

      If you go to their website you can find a coupon and save a couple bucks.

      I gave them a second chance and they blew it!
      The place was boiling hot, no air conditioning!
      The pizza was burnt, the meatballs on my grinder were cold and peppery, and they forgot my cannoli.
      The staff was mostly young girls, the 2 people that worked the counter were a very pleasant young man and an extremely loud young woman. There were only 2 of us waiting for food in their very small dining room, and this young lady was yelling out our orders as if we were waiting in the parking lot.
      Overall, an uncomfortable setting and less than mediocre food!

      Dirty! Deep level grease was visible in the kitchen from my seat in the dining room in addition to a VERY MESSY amount of surface dirt, food scattered on the kitchen floor, messy workspaces, and overall 'lackidasical' attitude towards cleanliness.

      I am NOT a clean freak by any means, I camp, I dumpster dive at grocery stores, so for dirt to bother ME ... kind of a biggie.

      As all Pizza is inherently edible, even frozen grocery store pizza, and as I am NOT the type of person to be skeeved out by dirt, we ate.

      The pizza itself was standard NYC street corner lacking anything special, and overpriced for that level of quality.

      We continue to enjoy Divinci's pizza -- the crust is not too thin or too thick and the seasoning is just right -- very consistent -- highly recommend their pizza's and we've had their pasta dinners which are excellent as well -- very good value for the money!!

      This is a small and casual little pizza Staff here are always friendly and I've never been unsatisfied with their pizzas. It wasn't until this past Friday though that I felt compelled to write a review. We ordered their large spinach and feta specialty pizza for takeout. It comes with a white sauce. It was amazing! It's definitely one of my new favorites. This place was also very accommodating for my whole daughter's basketball team when we decided to go out for pizza there one time. Great people!

      Our go-to take-out pizzeria when visiting the shoreline, even though there are a couple other pizzerias in closer proximity. DaVinci has never failed us, they use quality ingredients (read: fresh mushrooms, not canned), and the sauce is not too sweet nor is it too salty. And, unlike some other pizzerias, you don't end up with oil from the low quality cheese running down your hands while eating it. While not spectacular pizza, it is a cut-above your run-of-the-mill pies. A big plus is their reliability: the pie is always ready for pick-up at the time we've been informed and the staff is unfailingly friendly and courteous. We cannot speak to anything else on the menu.
