Tasty, Lots of Options

I have tried the vegan versions of their original pizza, margarita, the rustler, the fire breathing dragon, and the Elote pizza and a vegan peanut butter-chocolate bar and it was all very tasty! Between all of the pizzas, I recommend the rustler and fire breathing dragon. The house-made rinota cheese is what makes their vegan pizzas special. Their vegan mozzarella has a very mild flavor, however, they have managed to get it to melt perfectly! The handtossed crusts are soft and chewy. Great seasonings and toppings. It's tasty junk food to sink your teeth into on a Saturday night!

Good pizza!

Lots of options for plant based toppings and had vegan wings. Wasn’t an insane vegan experience but the pizza was good.

Great for omni's

This is the place I always get pizza. I love the seasonal specials (when they come vegan that is). It's also my go to spot to get food with Omni friends

So many pizza options and extensive beer list

We came here with omni friends and it was perfect for pleasing everyone. We tried the Rustler (bbq pizza with mock duck) with the regular vegan cheese and the Mushroom pizza with the housemate riNOTa. The riNOTa was a bit dry and overall not our favorite. We might have liked the Mushroom pizza better if we had just stuck with the other vegan cheese option. The Rustler was really tasty. There were enough options that I'd be happy to go back and try more things!

Pros: Lots of vegan options, Fairly affordable

Lots of tasty vegan options

Pizza Luce is a must-go place for vegans and vegetarians visiting Minneapolis or other cities in Minnesota. The pizzas are great, and there are lots of awesome sandwiches to choose from, too.

Delicious but expensive

Used to be our go-to for vegan and gluten free but it's just too expensive. Like $30 for a small pizza that would only feed one person.. Molly bars are delicious!

Love!

The vegan options are incredible! So cheesy, so delicious, and I've never had a bad experience here thus far. All the non-vegans I've eaten the vegan pizza with have been so impressed! Will definitely return.

Cons: A bit pricey

Great vegan pizza

I know the Midwest outside Chicago isn’t renowned for its pizza, but Pizza Luce’s vegan cheeseburger pizza blew my mind. So GOOD!!!

Pros: Great vegan pizza , Multiple locations , Trivia night

Great Late Night Option

We found this place looking for food late one night. We ordered three sandwiches (two vegan), and they were delicious. Just about every sandwich on the menu had a vegan option, so it was nice to have a lot to choose from. I ordered the veggie sandwich with their house made "cheese". The bread was soft and crusty, and the fillings were perfect. The other two sandwiches also got rave reviews.

Pros: Fast delivery, Lots of choices, Great sandwiches

Consistently good pizza

Despite being on the spendier side as far as pizza goes, they have a bunch of delicious options that will make sure you've always got something good (although I honestly just get the vegan Athena every time because it's so good)

Pros: Free delivery, All vegan options clearly labeled, Gluten-free options available

Cons: Expensive

Bad experiences!

Went here for my birthday with family. Half my group did not like their food, salads were soggy, my mock meats tasted stale.

I came back and tried a vegan sandwich, it was not good.

It’s been really hit or miss lately! I used to make my own pizza and it was always so good, and now the last few times I’ve ordered food there it has been bad. I’m so bummed I used to love Pizza Luce!

I hope they make some changes and get some better plant-based options soon.

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: Going downhill.

Good stuff!

I had the Vegan Athena pizza and a Molly Bar delivered to my hotel. The driver was great. The pizza was delicious.

I wasn’t a fan of the Molly Bar. It’s a brownie, but it had a layer of frosting, and the whole thing was super sweet. It reminded me more of fudge than a brownie, really. I’m also not the best person for critiquing brownies, as I’m more of a cinnamon roll connoisseur, so still give it a shot if you do like brownies.

Overall, it’s good stuff, and I would eat it again if I didn’t have so many other places on my list for this trip. 🤤

A Minnesota Must

My wife & I went here our first night in the Twin Cities and it ended up being a perfect start to our trip. It’s a little harder on the wallet, but not outlandish and totally worth it.

Pros: Plenty of vegan & gluten-free options, The cashew/tofu cheese & “meat” options

Cons: A bit pricey (but worth it in my opinion)

This place can get BUSY

There is a WHOLE vegan menu on their online ordering page. This isn’t the best pizza I’ve had, but it sure does come close. An excellent option if you need to please omnis.

Pros: A HUGE vegan menu

Cons: Can get rather busy , A little pricey

ALL DELICIOUS

I got food here for delivery and it was delicious. Food was prompt and still nice and warm and even arrived earlier than expected! I got the vegan mozz sticks and the vegan mock chicken dijon as well as a pint of vegan peanut butter and chocolate icecream... ALL DELICIOUS!

Good food, insufferably long wait

Every stage of the restaurant process was incredibly, painfully long. We came in at 6:15 with a reservation and left two hours later (and we did not want to stay that long). That being said, they had a lot of vegan, veg, and omni options. Worked with my food allergy.

If you have time to spare, probably worth a visit, but don’t expect a quick bite.
