You’ll find first-class pies at this counter-service offshoot of John Besh and Alon Shaya’s Roosevelt Hotel original. Try the Bolzano: roasted pork shoulder, fennel, bacon, and sweet onions.

Indeed pizza is very good! Ours was a bit spicy, but we don't eat a lot of spicy food. It is a very nice place, but it is in "corporate" section - it shows. For historic vibe stay East of Canal St.

Pizza is so good here. They have a lot of interesting choices. Happy hour has some pizzas for half off! I had the half clam and half wild mushroom and really liked it!

This place is soooooooo good!!! Roasted Cauliflower with whipped feta cheese and fried tuscan kale with pine nuts and tomatoes, then Tagliatelle which is a slow cooked rabbit (first time eating it) wi

Great cocktails. Had the butternut squash pizza and it was a little too sweet, next time I would add some prosciutto on top and have them go light on the sauce and it would probably be perfect.

Food was really good. Debating between 2 pizzas? Have them split it and get your pizza half and half. I split the clam and pork one. Both amazing.

Everything about their pizza is amazing! Service is top notch and they graciously create the pizza of your dreams even if it’s not on their menu🍕

I'm very picky about pizza and let me tell you: Domenica's pizza is one of the best I have ever tried! The flavors are unique. We had the roasted carrot and the prosciutto. De li cious :-D

Most people don't think of Italian cuisine when they come New Orleans, but if you are looking for an excellent Italian restaurant Domenica is the perfect choice

Squid Ink Tagaliolini was to die for! Don't bother with the small plate get a full order! I wanted to smuggle some home in my suitcase! Will definitely come back for this! Well done!
LindseyMarch 16, 2014
What an amazing restaurant! The staff is great (and good looking). The cheese starters and side of kale were beyond delicious. Had the cavatelli entree but I was already so full. It was perfection tho
Aaron BatesonMay 24, 2021
The swordfish carpaccio and the polenta is amazing. The rigatoni arrviata was also remarkably flavorful for such a simple dish!
Anita MacMarch 15, 2013
On your own? Eat at the bar. Same amazing food, no need to wait for a table. Strawberry Amore cocktail with prosecco a treat! Loved the pizza. Heard it's half price during happy hour!
Cameron DickersonJuly 1, 2014
By far some of the best pizza I've ever had, the Wild Mushroom is an incredible blend of flavours that makes every bite enjoyable. The severs are very helpful and friendly as well.

Italian perfection in the Cajun south! Ppl compare this place to Otto in NYC but the food at Domenica is far superior. Chicken pesto panini made with juicy chunks of roasted chicken. It's amazing!
Christopher FlossMay 20, 2021
Our first meal in #NewOrleans! Casual contemporary venue, with a nice selection of pastas, pizzas and seafood entrees. The lasagna is worth a try!

Cocktails : awesome. carpaccio, gnocchi, prosciutto pizza: all three just perfect. Dessert - caramello crostata: awesome dessert with a twist :) service - on point. Totally recommended. Will be back.
KenJanuary 4, 2014
The cake is filled with salted caramel, bananas, roasted pecans, mascarpone cheese and caramel latte and covered in praline glaze. A small bean replaces the hidden baby. @Gambit

Great food (get the grilled cauliflower w/ whipped goat cheese. But we had the WORST service. Once they figure that out, all will be well!

The delicious carrot-beet-Brussels sprouts pizza is gone but you can still get it at the Magazine location. The asparago is delightful.
Sandra DeMott HasenauerMarch 10, 2013
Roasted carrot, beet, hazelnut, Brussels sprout and goat cheese pizza is phenomenal. Happy hour, pizzas and drinks half price. Great!

The dining room is homey and comfortable but, at the same time, feels forward-looking. Cocktails are some of the best in the city. [Eater 38 Member]

Deep, intense flavors are cunningly matched. Vegetarian options (like pasta with roasted eggplant and goat cheese) pack ample flavor. This is why we have taste buds.
Erika MurrayAugust 7, 2017
The roasted cauliflower with goat and feta cheese dip was amazing. The lasagna is delicious and the pizza was very good.
Gabriel GramajoApril 4, 2015
Arúgula salad was absolutely fantastic. You must try the flambeau as dessert, best ever.
rahblahAugust 11, 2014
Fried kale. Roasted cauliflower. And of course pizza. Don't miss dessert here. They also make a ridiculous (non-traditional) king cake.

Favorite pizzas: clam and the wild mushroom. Octopus carpaccio was probably the freshest appetizer I've ever eaten. Tartufo is the perfect chocolate dessert.
James AllenMarch 23, 2015
Good bottled beer selection (no draft). Great thin pizzas half price on happy hour.
Amanda ThauMay 6, 2017
You can't go wrong with anything you order! I'd recommend the cauliflower with feta and the squid ink pasta. Mangia!
Michael AlbaJuly 13, 2018
The burrata appetizer was superb. To our surprise, it had fantastic truffle sprinkle to take it over the top.
Dean PorterMay 25, 2011
The food is worth the drive from Atlanta. The bad tips are from tourist that don't enjoy NOLA to begin with. Start with a meat and cheese plate and go from there. Everything is amazing.

A wonderful antidote to the buttery, cream-filled foods of New Orleans. Best pizza crust I've ever tasted.
Tino BoehmApril 14, 2017
The Lasagne is to die for... overall a really authentic Italien restaurant I can highly recommend loving Italien food.
Savannah PetrickSeptember 26, 2015
good food but maybe not for big groups! food took awhile to come and my pasta was kind of cold when I got it, but they were very friendly and accommodating!!
Brendan RastetterAugust 15, 2014
Order the wild mushroom pizza. It's wonderful. The real standout, however, was the octopus carpaccio app (so refreshing).
Iffat JokhioAugust 10, 2014
Insane pizza! So unique and creative, reserve ahead and enjoy everything they have to offer. Clam pizza was delish!
Asadur AshikJune 30, 2017
The squid ink pasta was awesome! And the pizzas were so good that we are definitely going back there!

Eat the whole branzino. You won't regret it. Except don't eat the bones. You will regret that.
Natalie BurnsJune 14, 2018
Try the clam pizza and the kale side - delicious!
Soner BaşarırNovember 30, 2014
Pizza with oyster was awesome. It can also be considered as a cheap place to eat perfect dinner

A decent restaurant; great food; don't miss the desert!

Get half-price drinks and pizzas from the wood-burning oven at Domenica every day from 3 p.m - 6 p.m.

Great value for money during happy hour, included wine & pizza. Food & service were top.

Pizza Happy Hour! Great crust and good wine by the glass
John HaberlandJune 10, 2013
Amazing service. Definitely get the Affettati Misti. I liked the Garganelli but the duck ragu tasted like meat, not duck.
ADecember 3, 2015
The Calabrese pizza is delicious. It says spicy salami but really it's just great.
Katie QuiltyNovember 23, 2014
The fried kale is so die for!! Pizza & bread is excellent! Can't go wrong here!
