Pagliai's Pizza - Johnston

Delivery was on time and she seemed happy to be at work (which is a nice change from some Delivery drivers). Order was correct (and I ordered a half and half). Pizza was hot. Tasted pretty good too compared to a lot of other places I've had around here. I got a pan crust. Just right on the amount of dough. Topings could have been spread out a little more evenly and there was a bit of a different taste to the pizza. Could be normal for this place as I haven't eaten here in many many years. Overall satisfied and will be ordering here again.

Pagliai's has the best thin crust pizza and red sauce! Our favorite is their pesto pepperoni pizza. The feta cheese and pesto is amazing combination. The pizza was not shown on menu but our server reassured us it was still in the system to order!! We forgot it had black olives on it which we wouldn't have opted out for but we definitely won't forget to mention next time. Don't forget there homemade ranch it is also amazing!

On the hunt for the best pizza in Des Moines and this is in the top. I grew up going to the Pagliai’s in Grinnell and it’s still at the top. My favorite part about dinning in here is the window to watch the pizza being made. The kids just love it. When we were there the staff was so nice, waving at the kids while they are watching. They loved it. Highly recommend. Favorite pizza is sauerkraut, green olives, and their in house made sausage. So good!

Pagliai's never disappoints and their remodel really brightened the restaurant. We were seated immediately and our waitress was friendly and efficient. Our pizza was perfect and the cheesebread is always a favorite. We were thanked not only by our waitress but by the busy kitchen staff as well. Worth the hour drive!

Unbelievable...placed online order at 7pm & got notified to pick up at 7:36. Arrived at 7:38ish, because I know about promise times, and asked about my order & was told it wasn't done & would be longer...even though I could see my pizza on the oven with my name on it. About 20 minutes later I asked what the holdup was & another guy saw my pizza & told the counter guy to go in back & grab my pasta... Well as you can imagine, after sitting in back for 20 minutes, my pastas were barely warm & my thin crust pizza was a bit soggy. I had such high hopes for tonight's supper...😞
