Jakeeno's Pizza & Pasta
87.76
Score
3555 Chicago Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55407, USA

The sausage links at Jakeeno's Pizza & Pasta possess a distinct, well-seasoned flavor. Pizzas arrive with thin crusts, demonstrating fresh preparation.

Service interactions can be inconsistent. Instances have been reported of staff hostility and an unwelcoming atmosphere during private events, even when the restaurant is otherwise open for business.

Lasagna preparation appears standardized across multiple local establishments, yielding a taste comparable to frozen grocery store options. The accompanying bread was noted as hard, and pizzas sometimes featured minimal cheese.

Score
1580 St Clair Ave, St Paul, MN 55105, USA

The pizzeria offers Neapolitan-style pies, evident in the charring on the crust. The Don Pepe pizza arrived with a well-balanced arrangement of toppings. Cheesesteak options, such as the Supreme, can be customized with additional elements like jalapeños.

Fries accompany the sandwiches, providing a crisp counterpoint. The preparation of pizzas is visible, with dough being shaped before the customer.

Observational details noted a less than meticulous approach to cleanliness in both the kitchen and seating areas, with particular attention drawn to the floors and tables.

211 7th St W, St Paul, MN 55102, USA

Cossetta’s offers a sprawling, multi-level Italian market experience. The downstairs pastry counter presented a notable tiramisu; a slice of chicken parmesan upstairs arrived with a modest portion of penne.

A recent visit found the pizza at a commendable $6.00 per slice, and the market itself provided a considerable array of items for browsing. Parking is available.

The carrot cake, moist with a well-executed frosting, stood out among the baked goods.

Carbones Pizza

Score
1698 Randolph Ave, St Paul, MN 55105, USA

Carbone's Pizza occupies a building operating since the 1960s. The thin crust pizza features a zesty red sauce and ample mozzarella. Pepperoni offered a mild kick, not heat, complementing the cheese. The Italian cheese bread, covered generously, was accompanied by a marinara sauce with a distinct tang.

Claire served the table with a relaxed demeanor, creating a comfortable atmosphere. The establishment, distinct from a national chain, provides an environment that facilitates easy navigation for wheelchair users. Limited parking presents a consideration.

The Dezi Dunkers, a popular item, are noted for their superior ratio of components. This pizza, prepared square-cut, distinguishes itself with a satisfying crispness.

Tommie's Pizza

Tommie's Pizza
85.05
Score
1556 Selby Ave, St Paul, MN 55104, USA

Tommie's Pizza on Selby Avenue presents a straightforward approach to its offerings. The cheese pizza has drawn comparisons to a New York style, a feat notable in the region. Complementing this, the Selby wings are described as seasoned and cooked with precision, a good size, and notable in their execution.

The establishment's space is limited, a factor acknowledged due to its St. Paul location. Despite potential delivery issues, the pizza itself is considered by some to surpass most other options available in Minnesota. The cheesecake is also mentioned as a satisfactory dessert.

The pizza sauce is observed to have a tomato paste base, and the pepperoni is described as not achieving a cupped bake. While seating is available, reserving in advance is an option. The speed of preparation for to-go orders, even close to closing, has been noted positively.
