In Short DaVinci's, located in a refurbished house near Vanderbilt, bills itself as the home of "gourmet pizza." It's simple, hearty and elegant at the same time. There are more choices for toppings--including vintage Italian sausage, black beans, smoked oysters--than most pizza places combined. Salads, beer and wine are also on the menu, but the real American pies are the standouts.

Frequently voted the best pizza in Nashville, this casual neighborhood place is in a renovated brick house in a nondescript neighborhood. As you step through the front door, you'll likely be hit with the overpowering aromas of fragrant pizzas baking in the oven. The pizzas here are all made from scratch and include some very interesting creations. The oysters-Rockefeller pizza is made with... more

Good Pizza, Okay Experience

The pizza is pretty good. It has a good crust texture, and the sauce has a ton of flavor. There is a wide variety of pizza toppings, although it should be larger considering that there is not much else on the menu other than pizza. If you're not going to offer more than 2 pasta dishes and some boring salads, you should have some more gourmet toppings. There are only a few appetizers to choose... more

Nice patio, and the staff seems to think people sit at the outside tables just to take a load off, not to actually eat. My wife and I have never had good service at Davinci's. On our last and final attempt to give them a chance, we sat at a table outside. After being seated for 5 minutes, a large group of people arrived. A waitress asked us to move so that she could accomodate the large... more

This isn't Papa John's... Offering eat-in and carry-out options, Davinci's pizza has a flaky, crispy, medium-thick crust, freshly cut toppings and quality meats and cheeses. The menu offers a variety of suggested combinations, or you can make your own. It's popular with the Vandy crowd and takes time to prepare, so bring your patience if you're dining in, but you won't be sorry when the pie... more

One of the best pizza places in Nashville - especially their specialty pizzas! Very expensive, however, and they lack one of the best qualities of most pizzerias - they don't deliver!!

Pros

+ Great food

Cons

- No delivery, expensive for pizza

We went expecting an experience fitting its high prices and "gourmet" designation, but were sorely disappointed. We waited 15 minutes or more for anyone to even take our drink order, because apparently the 3 or 4 waiters and waitresses that kept walking by and looking at us thought someone else was helping us. Though we had our whole order ready, the woman who finally helped us only took our... more

This has to go down as the worst pizza I have ever tasted. I've lived in some great pizza locales (manhattan, brooklyn) and suffered through some lousy pizza places (los angeles, baltimore), but DaVinci's is far and away one of the worst pies out there. The restaurant looks nice, but the pies are unedible. I would not reccommend this place to anyone and seriously doubt the taste buds (or... more

Expecting pizza, we were surprised to end up with what tasted like a thin layer of cornbread with the requested toppings. The "homemade" sangria was homemade in the way that Kool-Aid is homemade. The atmosphere and service were the only redeeming qualities of an otherwise disgusting and hurtful meal.

Cozy atmosphere and excellent pizza. I LOVE a good pizza and this one is worth many return trips. Hard to beat.

Pros

- Parking could be a problem during peak hours. We parked right in front but it was the middle of the afternoon.

Gourmet?

This pizza is horrible and outrageously priced. The crust appeared to be almost entirely semolina, dense and weighty. The sauce was too salty and tasted as though it came from a can and was laden with preservatives. No freshly crushed tomatoes here, which one would expect for the price paid. ($13-20). The cheese which was of a better quality, buttery and fibrous, went entirely to waste on this... more

This is a nice-looking, cool place to hang out or go on a date. The dining room has high ceilings and an old fireplace (that unfortunately does not work). Another plus is the patio. But, you're here for the piza. . .

I would recommend DaVincis to anyone. The pizza is great and you can create your own from all the toppings they have to offer. The staff is always entertaining and they make you feel like you have been coming there for years. If you are going on the weekends, go early to make sure you do not have to wait. Great location if you are doing anything downtown or around West End.

Pizza is different everywhere, and this place has its own unique flavor. Very popular, great menu options, friendly staff, and very comfortable. This place is also very good for non-smokers, and though they have a smoking area, they smartly convert the whole place to non-smoking when patrons seem to demand it. No doubt, DaVinci's could go NON-smoking and do well....very well. This is a hard... more

This is our favorite pizza in Nashville-- and we are huge pizza fans. The toppings are very fresh and generous, the blend of cheeses incredible. We also love the atmosphere-- great house with fireplace in one room, conducive to lively conversation. Definitely not your typical pizza place. Makes a great selection for a fun date or meeting a bunch of friends.

daVinci's has been one of my favorites since moving to Nashville almost 2 yrs ago, and for good reason. Pizza that balances itself, combines just the right amount of acidic-basic-exotic (the Southwest has a crisp-and-tender crust, smothered in tomato-salsa, and laden with GENEROUS toppings and a cool sprinkling of fresh cilantro), and has offerings you're just not going to find elsewhere... more

DaVinci's makes one of the best pies in town. I've rarely had a disappointing experience (but have on occasion). They've got a lot of intriguing themed pizzas. Just off West End, the neighborhood isn't visually appealing but is safe.

Seafood pizza is surprisingly good. Also, offer pesto as alternative to tomato sauce. Informal setting but what do you expect for pizza. Rest of menu otherwise limited.
