Donati's Pizza Lake Forest

LOVE the Detroit pizza. Delicious thicker crust that doesn’t feel like you’re digesting a bowling ball when you’re done, as with some of the other famously known deep dish pizzas’. So happy to discover it. And the folks there are always, always so nice.

Donati's has really upped their game. I've always felt Donati's was kind of a middle of the road pizza but I don't feel that way anymore. For this review, I ordered delivery of Donati's Detroit style pizza and one of their chopped salads. The Detroit style pizza is amazing and a welcome addition to all of the New York and Chicago styles offered at other restaurants in the area. The signature charred cheese on the edges of this pizza are crunchy and flavorful. The sauce is just right and has a fresh flavor that is slightly sweet and pairs well with the charred cheese sides. The cheese on top has that desirable 'snap' when bitten but properly stretches when pulled. The crust is thick, fluffy, and full flavored. I also got the Lake Forest Chopped salad. Wow. This salad is amazingly fresh, cold, and delicious. The chopped chicken was still warm and tasted like it just came off the grill with that perfect grill flavor. The raspberry vinaigrette dressing is also flawlessly matched with the other ingredients. This salad is a new favorite of mine. If you have not tried the Lake Forest Chopped salad I highly recommend you do. Kudos Donati's for a great meal.

Donati's has the best pizza in town! Stop by and check them out in this newly built space!

Service is also top-notch so you will not be disappointed!

If feeling adventurous, their apps are to die for, especially the stuffed jalapeno and crazy bread! If you really want to go for something unique, try their calzones!

Love the Detroit pizza and their gluten free crust! Great catering as well! Highly recommend.

So delicious! I could eat it every day! Crispy crust. I get easy cheese. 2 thumbs up!

Best Detroit in the area!

Great pizza! Generous with sauce. I will definitely be back for me.

I’ve eaten here many times and the food / service has always been exceptional!

Best deep dish in Lake County!

Top picture is what I ordered. Bottom picture is what I got. Definitely not the same. Ones a cheesy bread and ones a garlic bread with mozzarella cheese melted on top.

Pizza wasn’t terrible but nothing special either.

Delicious Detroit pizza. But the service here is really poor. When going to pick up food there is often nobody up front to help customers. I’ve waited for 15-20 min before someone even pokes their head up at the register. And there have been several times that they didn’t even get our order (from Toast Takeout). They don’t seem apologetic. Just offer to cancel the order and move on to the next customer like I am an inconvenience. Also they are apparently changing names or something and have two locations but have changed nothing on Toast or online. So they are Donatis online but Pucks in real life?

Such a shame because they make good pizza.

Eh

Veggie deep dish pizza was soggy, luke warm and bottom stuck to the bottom of box. In addition pizza missed a topping and green peppers appeared slimy.
Poor experience this time around

Hahaha learn how to spell your own businesses name.
