Carb lovers must get here as quickly as possible. Every bread item here is out of this world. The location is quaint and has a family feel. You can’t go wrong with a Frank Sinartra theme. The dining room is tiny and fills quickly, but it’s always worth the wait. I like that they have tables with Checkers, Chess, and Scrabble to play while you wait. I love the Italian Pierogis and the Polish Pierogies. The pierogis are always delicious with plenty of meat, onions, and peppers on top. The roll that comes on the side is so tasty. The actual bread is full of flavor. It isn’t just the butter and seasoning that makes it great. The Double Crust Gangster Zone is a delicious combination of the flavorful bread, meats, and tasty marinara for dipping. The small(6 cut) is large enough for two people and is about the size of a small pizza.

…some three years later the owners reached out to me to see if they could«regain me as a customer»…I guess they just got on Unilocal… and I still don’t care ;)

My husband and I tried Danny Boy’s after moving into the area from Philadelphia. The restaurant atmosphere was pleasant, however a bit confusing since there was no hostess greeting anyone, or sign that we saw instructing us to seat ourselves. The waitress was adequate — there were no problems with service, but yet no reason to rave about how great she was either. The biggest issue we had with dining here was the price. The jojo platter we shared, my specifically asked for«small side salad», the small clevelander pizza, and the small cheeseburger pizza were edible, but not worth the incredibly high prices. I’ve had larger, better tasting jojo potatoes elsewhere for cheaper price, and the $ 14./each pizza can be described as «ordinary» at best. My «small side salad» turned out to be a $ 5 expensive bunch of lettuce with a few shredded carrots. No olives, no cheese, nothing special. There was a very limited draft beer selection, and prices for craft beer were average $ 5.50/beer. Overall, the value just was not there for us. Dinner for two: A whopping $ 60!

Danny Boy’s is pretty awesome for the simple fact that I love the old school feel of the place. We went on a Thursday night and there was only a few other families there. We got our food really fast and it was delicious! We had to have the bread sticks because of all of the Unilocal reviews and I’m glad we did! They were amazing!!! We played cards that they have at each table until our pizzas arrived. I got the chicago deep dish and it was perfect(even better the next day warmed up in the oven!) They’re definitely on the pricey side but what pizza place isn’t these days? I’ll be back for sure.

we tried the original Danny Boy’s Pizza in Rocky River Friday and found it to be nearly as good as our experience in Broadview Heights a couple months ago. we weren’t aware that it was a «seat yourself» environment so we stood there looking like morons for a few minutes till a server saw us and let us know to pick our own table. a sign or something would have been nice but no big deal. once seated we ordered our meals. i got a pizza w/pepperoni, yellow banana peppers and onion. i also ordered a cup of chili and tried on of their meatballs. i think i’ve found a meatball that i like as good as Antonio’s in Parma — maybe even more. it was really very good. the chili was ok. the veggies weren’t cooked as much as i like, but the taste was good, if not a little spicy. my pizza was great but i was already almost full by the time it arrived so i took most of it home to enjoy as lunch the next day. Danielle had a New Jersey Chicken Melt with chicken, pepperoni, tomatoes, basil, banana peppers, romano cheese, pizza cheese, italian dressing and a side of pizza sauce. it’s all sealed and baked into pizza dough like a calzone. i tried it and thought it was delicious. it’s a little farther away than the Broadview Heights location so I’m not sure when we’ll be back, but if you’re in the area you should try it for some of the best pizza around.

Visited for the first time with husband and son. Ordered the Chicago style pizza. It was good, but I am not a big meat eater. The Chicken and peppers were very spicy. The bread with the salad was exquisite! I ordered the dressing on the side, so the salad was fine. I would eat here again and reccommend it to friends. Our waitress was friendly and filled our beverages quickly.

When I’m craving carbs(which is almost every day) I crave the breadsticks, pizza, and/or pepperoni calzone at Danny Boy’s. I can’t resist how hot and fresh everything is. The atmosphere is intimate yet fun and while there may be a little bit of a wait for your food or even for grabbing a seat, there is always something to look at or do – for instance the deck of cards at each table. The service is always efficient and the food consistently delicious. One suggestion I have is because it’s a hallway size entrance I would place a small sign indicating whether or not to seat yourself or wait for a server. And it’s not the most inexpensive pizza shop I’ve ever been to; however, the price is well worth the taste and large portions.

Its good pizza, but also some of the most expensive in all of Cuyahoga County. I doubt I will pay $ 28 for a pie again there anytime soon. This aint downtown Chicago or New York city. Just sayin!

I had the opportunity to try this when going through Cleveland on a trip and waited 20 mins to sit before trying the food. It is a nice casual place with a large menu, we tried breadsticks, regular pizza, tony soprano, and a clevelander pizza. The breadsticks and regular pizza were good. The tony soprano was unique with the pasta on he sandwich and the spaghetti was quite tasty, but the all-star was the clevelander. This is all the benefits of a Chicago style pizza without all the extra crust. I am sorry for the lack of picture but if you like Chicago style you will love this pie. It is a unique pizza that I have not had Berger and find myself craving it now a few days afterward. This is a great pizza place to go better than any pizza in little Italy.

Sat down at Danny Boy’s for some pizza pie yesterday with my boyfriend. I had the Chicago and he got the BBQ Chicken Pie. I was in the mood for some deep dish but I will admit the BBQ pizza was better. All around the pizza and service was very good. The only caveat was the deck of cards provided at the table, it was missing cards and had like 6 Aces. Thanks to this cheating lying deck I lost in a game of rummy to my bf. Butttt I supposed I am just a sore loser. Again, delicious food great service.

Holy spectacular. This pizza is incredible! I ordered the double crust gangster, California, and bread sticks. My mouth has never been so happy. This is my first of many trips to Danny Boys! The girl answering the phone, and the driver were both very friendly. But the pizza is AMAZINGGGGGG!!!

Imagine a world full of jazz music filled with Italian food, that would be this place. Danny Boy’s is a small pizza place nestled on the corner of Route 6 and Kensington. I wouldn’t consider this an Italian restaurant per se, more so an aspirational jazz club that serves pizza. The music is pleasant, however with Frank Sinatra playing every other song it may get annoying after a bit. Parking here is a little weird as I felt as if I was intruding in the car repair shop(right next door), but luckily they were closed so I parked there anyway. You can either park there or park at Rego’s which is at the other end, though good luck. For dinner, I tried their breadsticks and Frank’s pizza(margherita pizza). The breadsticks were not stick by any means and were actually warm fluffy bread squares served with marinara sauce. The bread had some seasoning and was tasty but perhaps too big and better suited for something like cinnamon sugar topping. The margherita pizza was simply fantastic. It is thin crust, but more of a medium-thin crust as it is a bit more doughy. The basil and tomatoes tasted fresh, as did the olive oil. Bravo! Price for both the breadsticks and pizza came to $ 18, which is a bit steep considering you have only one size option for the pizza. However, if the quality remains the same I would not be turned off by the price in the future. Swing on in sometime, you might be surprised what a little charm this pizza shop is.

The best breadsticks Ive ever had hands down. Could make a meal on those w the sauce. Have had both the Chicago and NY style of pizza here. Both are great. My son loves their alfredo fetucinni(sp?)

For pizza places, this one is on the top of our list. I love the sauce and the bread-sticks at this place. I don’t eat pork and many of the menu options have it on there, but that doesn’t take away from the place. I love the botanical Clevelander. The Lady is a Tramp calzone. Yum. Even their wraps are good. I love going to a local pizzeria and being able to eat-in rather than carry out. It’s just fun. The dining room in this place could be a little bit bigger, but they make do. If there is a wait though, there isn’t all that much room to stand around. Every time I’ve been here the service is decent, not stellar or anything, but this IS a pizza place. But, despite the above minor issues, we keep coming back cause the pizza is so good. We always get a side salad to start cause that comes with one breadstick(they are huge, so that is plenty) — and then I can at least pretend I ate something healthy. I’ve had the Chicago style and the thin crust and both are good. The ONLY reason I’m taking off a star is because there are so few non-pork options on the menu. Overall though, I think you should try it(and bring me an order of breadsticks while you are there).

Nice place with a good Pizzeria feel on the inside. They put a deck of cards on all the tables and have some checker/chess tables available. Good outdoor seating, especially this time of the year. Their menu selection is pretty large. On this inaugural visit, we have the bread sticks and a Chicago pizza. I spent quite some time in Chicago proper and hit all of the joints, so I was interested to see how it stood up. So let us start with the Bread Sticks. They are really well done and piled high. They come out hot with a dish of marinara. The sticks themselves are fantastic, hot, and soft in the inside and just a light brown crust. The sauce needs a little doctoring though. But it is not bad. The Pizza. So they do the full on sausage bottom like Gino’s East. Only problem is that they put the sausage at the top. Gino’s places it at the bottom. This makes for a better experience. With it on top, when you bite or cut in, it pushes everything out the side. Aside from that, it is pretty good for being outside of Chicago. We were impressed enough that we will go back, but next time it is for the Clevelander.

Ordered the The Clevelander deep dish style and it was tasty with nice hearty slices. I was told delivery would take 45 minutes to an hour but I actually got the pizza in about 30 minutes, which every minute counts when your stomach is growling! Got a side salad to go with the pizza and it came with two lovely light buns/rolls that had a dusting of what appeared to be parmesan cheese and butter.

I’m basing this review off a delivery, so I promise to eat in, and update. I ordered the«Chicago», which is their version of a Chicago deep dish pizza. While it was OK, it certainly was not close to its namesake It was OK. Nothing stellar. I promise to give this place additional chances, and report back. BTW, the bread sticks I’ve heard so much about… meh. Disappointed, as we live down the hill on the river. We can almost throw a baseball to this place.
