Mesa Pizza

If you find yourself in Dinkytown for a Gopher sporting event, you are touring the school, or really any reason at all - Mesa Pizza should be at the top of your list for lunch or dinner. If you go to school there - you already know this.I love pizza - but I'm in love WITH Mesa Pizza. They sell specialty toppings by the slice, but you can order full pizzas (they can get expensive if you go that route). The slices are large so they should fill you up with 1-3. They are known for the mac and cheese pizza, but my favorites are the philly cheese steak, the gyro, and the southwest taco. My mouth waters just thinking about them! I wish they had additional locations outside of Dinkytown and Uptown... I'm not sure how many different types they actually have - as it seems the pizza creators in the kitchen sometimes get to experiment! You may want to avoid going here after bar close on the weekends - I know from experience that the lines can get wicked long and the clientele may be... having a good time.

Whenever I'm on my pizza craving mode, I know Mesa's Mac&cheese pizza always hits the spot. The taco pizza is pretty tasty too

pizza by the slice is a bit pricey and the pizza is too good to just eat one... so i would definitely recommend getting a whole pie. you can pick 1/2 1/2. service and nice, and the place is a clean pleasant place if you just want to hang for it but while eating the pizza.

Mesa is usually my go to for late night grub, but maybe this time they were a little off. I went in on a late Friday night, wasn't too busy, but the server seemed annoyed when I was asking about the difference varieties I was seeing (ones I wasn't familiar with). Ended up with the Chicken Alfredo which is one of my go tos there. Price is reasonable, parking sucks as it's Dinkytown(unless you go late late night), but the food is always good.

I would first recommend calling the store to get their personal delivery service vs GrubHub delivery. You will have more menu items available and more money directly to the company - cut out the middle man. This pizza OMG! Thin NY style crust but wood fire and crispy! The ingredients and flavor to die for!! Love the unique options and will definitely try more when I'm this area again!

Stopped by here after a real long day to grab some pizza, as one does. The interior was very clean, well maintained and decorated lightly old Chicago-esqe. They were absolutely slammed with mobile orders, so I can't speak much for the staff attitude, thought the two minutes I had to order were pleasant. Took around 30 minutes for my two pizzas to finish up, which was sooner than I had expected given how busy they seemed. Now here's where it gets less than awesome. I ordered a Mac & Cheese pizza (I'm a sucker for carbs) and a Philly Cheesesteak pizza. The M&C was a superb, knock-out and come back for more pizza. The absolutely a favorite pizza of mine now. The PC was an absolute trainwreck. Little sauce of any kind left the spices to try and pick up the slack, which it just couldn't manage. Additionally, I am uncertain if it was overseasoning and actually what I tasted, but that pizza was horribly musty, moldy in flavor. It was so off-putting that I honestly didn't know if I could finish the pizza (I did, but only after dousing the pizza in a garlic aioli I bought separately).Again I am not sure if the flavor was just heavy spicing with no balancing or if the vegetables/meat on that pizza were actually moldy in some form (I didn't get ill, so probably spices), but it shouldn't take buying a sauce on my own to make a pizza palatable.If this review was only the M&C, it would have been a 5/5. Unfortunately, the PC was so dreadful that I really can't give the place more than 2/5. KEEP IN MIND that Mesa has a ton of options and perhaps this was just one really bad one. I'll be ordering from them in the future, but that PC pizza won't be hitting my plate ever again.

This place is known for it's weird, crazy, unique, types of pizzas. It is also known for the perfect spot after a night of drinking. I heard it gets pack after 10pm on the weekends. My friend and I went on a Wednesday evening around 5pm. It was not that pack at all. They had some pizzas made already that you can pick from and they will reheat it for you. Or you can order something else and they will make it fresh right there! It took 10 mins for them to make us our pizza fresh. We ordered the BBQ beef and fries, gyros, and steak and guac pizza.Gyros pizza: This was one of my favorites! It literally tastes like the gyros sandwich that you would get! It had the yogurt sauce, onions, gyros and tomatoes. The pizza crust was also nice and crispy. It was bomb!Steak and guac pizza: This is a popular pizza here. Personally, I thought it was too much. I actually couldn't finish this and had it the next day. I think this pizza probably only taste good fresh. I did not like it at all the next day. I also thought it has too much sauce going on for my taste. There was the chipotle sauce drizzle on top and the creaminess of the guac was overwhelming. By the way, the chipotle sauce has a kick to it! BBQ beef and fries: This was is also popular as well. If you like bbq sauce you would probably like this one. Overall, I think if you are hungry or drunk you would like this place for their specialty pizza. Even though I did like the pizza when I was eating it fresh, it wasn't all that the next day. This is just my personal opinion.

My friend and I decided to get some end of night pizza and this was open at the time. The place itself was decent but definitely wasn't the best pizza joint I've been to. The people working were incredibly friendly. Ended up getting 4 separate slices...the mac and cheese one was unique and I think the best of the bunch.

Garbage pizza that has been sitting there for days. I'd rather eat Costco's pizza, at least theirs hot & fresh and larger. Workers are some lazy/slow hippies who are seemingly high as a kite, plus they look like they never showered, starring at people like they never seen humans before, and on top of that, they talk about you in front of you, I guess that's their way of trying to grab your attention. I couldn't wait to get out of there, I'm guessing they took extra 15 mins to give me the damn slice, felt very uncomfortable and annoyed but still tipped. I have not tried Frank & Andrea's pizza but I've been inside there and workers are respectful, fast and courteous, even though the place is always packed but the line goes so fast.

Ordered through Grubhub this past Friday evening. Not only was the order late, I asked for contactless delivery...the driver rang my doorbell, waking my child, and the food was delivered cold...If I wanted a cold pizza I would have just pulled one out from the fridge. Taste was mediocre, nothing special, probably would have been better if it were even Luke warm, but it wasn't Contacted grub hub, all they did was go oh sorry for your experience, here's a $5 promo. Like that will make up for the overall disregard toward the customer and poor quality of food delivered.Won't be ordering from here or utilizing Grubhub again.
