Pizza: 5/5. Service: 5/5. Lake Harriet Pizza is its own experience. IYKYK. Skip the salads.
An update is needed! Just last night I tried Lake Harriet Pizza's newest pizza, "Sweet Heat." Fabulous. Spicy, sweet, crunchy -- a perfect combo that didn't rely on just the cheese to make it work. It's ingredients include onion, jalapeño, goat cheese, sausage, and hot honey. Emphasis on the "hot honey." Included is a separate container that you drizzle over the pizza. Really, so good. Adding a Caesar salad was a great compliment to the heat. Way to go, LHP!
Visited 4/13/23. Ordered lake Harriet pizza for takeout and thought it was solid. Slightly on the spendier side for pizza, especially given that we ordered a garden veggie pizza (feels slightly strange that this would run for the same price as the other meat pizzas), but it delivered on taste and was enjoyed. Easy to pick up and was ready right when they said it would be. If I were to go back I would definitely be interested in trying one of their meat pizzas.
This has been go to for take away pizza for the last 30 years. I always get the Rebel (pepperoni, sausage, mushrooms and extra garlic powder). Careful, you will end up eating way more than you intended. Call ahead and in most cases you will have a pipping hot pizza in 20 minutes or less.
In my effort to support local restaurants during this "unusual" period, I have been ordering take out, curb side pickup and delivery from an assortment of establishments. This is the first in a series of reviews or updates. Recently my son and I took out bone-in wings (with Buffalo sauce), 3 pieces of cheese garlic toast and a 20" 1/2 pepperoni and 1/2 sausage & mushroom pizza. Wow, clearly our eyes were considerably bigger than our stomachs. Together we consumed the tasty wings and to me at least first rate toast. As far as the pizza, my son ate much of his pepperoni 1/2 while I actually made three meals out of my 1/2. Personally, I found the leftovers to be even more flavorful than when fresh. A bit on the pricey side but overall a very good neighborhood place for pizza and the like. Definitely worth checking out in my book.
GREAT pizza. I live in South Minneapolis and there is no shortage of good pizza in the area...Red Wagon and Broders are within walking distance of this place. I think they have a couple of tables outside but so seating inside. That being said, they are in my za rotation. A couple of orders ago I added wings. Super solid. On par with places that specialize in them. **Another thing I like about them is the local connection and cooperation** I went to Parkway Pizza (also great pizza) and they had some awesome seasoning on the table to add. We questioned the server on it. She said they get it from Lake Harriet Pizza.
We received a coupon in the mail and ordered delivery from lake harriet pizza. They arrived on the minute that they projected. We got the Bbq chicken pizza, pepperoni and Caesar salad. The pizzas are a lot larger than I expected and since they are cut into squares they will feed more than you think. The crust is thin and proportionally covered with toppings. I personally liked the bbq chicken one better but my husband is more of a classic guy so he liked the pepperoni better.
