We always enjoy DaVinci's as the pizza is fantastic, but be forewarned - this restaurant is *slow*! I mean, really, really slow which may be o.k. if you're on a romantic date, but be careful if you're trying to get a quick lunch.
DaVinci's has good pizza, but before baking they put the toppings underneath the cheese. So why are they called 'toppings'? I don't like my pizza this way, but they happily honor requests to put the toppings on top of the pizza.
This is, by far, the best pizza in Birmingham. My Grandfather used to own The Supper Club in Auburn, AL when they made pizzas back in the 70's and Divinci's pizza is made the way my Grandfather made them. I highly recommend Devinci's!! The taste is well worth the wait.
Pizza, calzones, pasta....never had a bad meal here. Love the Mona Lisa pizza...the gnocci and pasta is pretty good here too.
Of note, the garlic loaf they bring you is kinda small.
