What People's Say About Place

First time customer of Punch Pizza and this location. Punch Pizza delivers consistently great Neapolitan‑style pies with a blistered, wood‑fired crust and fresh, high‑quality toppings. The dough is soft, slightly chewy, and has that classic char you expect from a proper Neapolitan oven. Their ingredients—especially the mozzarella, tomatoes, and basil—taste clean and vibrant. Service is quick, and the Employees were very friendly. The menu is simple, and the pizzas come out fast. Prices are fair for the quality, and the atmosphere is casual but warm. Overall, it’s one of the better fast‑casual pizza spots if you want something authentic, flavorful, and reliably good. I may add the rocket salad wish delicious and the perfect pairing for our pies. Thank you Punch Pizza.

I’ve been coming to Punch for years and typically always order the same pizza and the same salad (chop salad). This time, I decided to try something new and ordered the Rocket Salad and it was a great decision since it was the best salad I’ve ever had. The mozzarella and tomatoes were delicious but even the arugula was seasoned perfectly and so tasty! The crew here today, lead by Joshua, was spectacular. Keep up the great work, Punch!! We are lucky to have you here in Minnesota!

I have had pizza on three different continents (including in Italy), and Punch is on the same level as the very best that I have ever had, and literally no where else touches it for value. My five-year-old son asks for it daily, and sometimes twice a day! I recommend the online pre-ordering, even if you are dining in, as the lines can get long at all of their locations.

We had someone over the other day and they wanted Punch pizza. I have been wanting to try it for years but it's a bit of a drive to get to one. I found the pizza well worth the drive. The staff was tremendous. So when I am in the neighborhood again I will stop in. Good pizza

After years of not eating at Punch pizza. I finally brought my husband who had NEVER HEARD OF THIS PLACE I know right! The food and service was fantastic and the pizza did not disappoint even after 10 years. Thanks for the great experience. My husband cannot stop talking about it will be back!

I placed my order when I was across the street at Lund's & Byerly's. I went in and did my grocery shopping then went across the street and food was ready. They must have upped their game because both were super good! The salad tasted great and had lots of flavor and I loved the dressing. I think I ordered the Tuscano for the pizza with the Mount Vesuvius tomato upgrade. The combo of the sausage, red peppers and those tomatoes couldn't have been better. My only confusion was they have a sign that says Check In. I think it should say Pick Up. But otherwise everything was great and nice people. This might be my Sunday go to from now on.

Quick easy lunch spot right off of I-35 East. Was able to get in and out in a very quick amount of time and enjoyed the meal. Would absolutely recommend the bruni. I feel like the crust either got thicker or maybe the recipe is changed, either way was still good, just not as crispy as I remember.

We are here on 8/12/25. It is extremely busy with indoor, outside , take out and constant orders coming out of the machine. The staff is patient and friendly. I would go nuts but they just keep working and it all gets done. Thank you Punch Pizza staff you are awesome. The pizza and salad are both great and exactly what I ordered.
