Danny Boy's- Broadview Heights

Every Danny Boy's we've been to has been great. It is my favorite pizza place in the Cleveland area. My wife and I first visited the Rocky River one when we were dating and I lived in Lakewood. I love and the Sinatra decor. Then when we lived on the far east side we'd make the drive for a treat. We now live in the south east suburbs and visit this location as we can. My only wish is that there was one closer! We recently discovered the honey bee pizza and it became a new favorite. Holy cow. Back in the day the breadsticks were free and of course they are not anymore, but we still order some for the table (although, alas, they don't go as far anymore with three kids). And the sauce.... The SAUCE! It is the best! I've not bought a jar to make homemade pizza with but I am going to next time we're in. The Rocky River location is probably my favorite for the ambiance and for nostalgia's sake but this location is the one we go to the most and there's lots of space. Usually not too long of a wait despite how full it can be. We just need one closer with the same great atmosphere! The absolute best.

Let me say this...it's just meh!

Met some friends for dinner. Been to a few other Danny Boy locations. Had good experiences. This one is just meh.

We each got something g different. I got a margarita pizza, zucchini fries, Delano pasta, chicken parm, and chicken pasta-forgot name.

Zucchini fries were meh. For price we did not get a lot. Pizza was ok. Chicken parm came with not a lot of sauce. Chicken pasta was not flavorful and needed more sauce as well. Everything was just meh. That's the best way I can describe it.

Nothing great. Staff is nice. Prices mediocre. It's own arming lot. Place is big and can accommodate lots of people. But I am sure there is a better experience someplace else.

I am going to be nice about my Fish Dinner and Chicken Dinner meal. I would never recommend these meals because the portions are very small compared to the photographs. The price is way too much for the product. The fries were so salty I couldn't even eat them. I will never order these meals again. People work hard hourly to have to be mislead by photographs. If me and my husband were not so hungry, we would have taken the meals back. They hide the meat with large pieces of bread on top to make the meal look big. Not so good tasting fish and chicken with small pieces that are way to high priced. You are basically eating a lot of hard batter around little meat in the middle. You get 3 pieces of fish and chicken that are actually only half the size of the photographs. The entire meal is way overpriced.

Good food, friendly people, mediocre service. Came in on a Wednesday night for dinner. No one was at the hostess stand so we stood and waited for what seemed like 5 minutes as servers bustled around, but didn't acknowledge our existence. Eventually, someone came over at sat us with menus.

Ordered a Wookiee, or something like that, which is really just a small calzone. Also had a chopped Italian salad with blackened shrimp. Both were good, but seemed to take some time to come out of the kitchen. Waitress was attentive and nice.

The food was good, particularly like to go on Wednesday as it's Woogie day. What's a Woogie you say, it's a small Calzone. I really like the asparagus salad, and others like the Philly Cheese Steak.
The service was good, and even though they don't have Anchovies listed on their pizza items, if you bring a can of them they will make a great pizza. My friend likes NY style and I like Chicago style myself. I liked mine, but the NY guy says to much bread. My wife like (in my thinking) a cracker with pizza sauce.
Try it once just for the Frank Sinatra atmosphere.

I was nervous coming in because of the other reviews but we had a party of 10 last minute so pickings were slim and Danny Boy said they could seat us right away. I actually thought the food was decent and the service was very nice and pretty much on top of it the entire time, which isn't easy with a group of 10 Italians who haven't seen each other in a while. The restaurant is steamed around Frank Sinatra and so there's a lot of fun knods to him on the menu as well as lots of photos and memorabilia on the wall.
Everything we ate:

FRIED PROVOLONE TRIANGLES (Six breaded provolone triangles, French fries, side pizza sauce) I mean this could be a meal in and of itself. I'm not used to seeing fried cheese be anything but mozzarella so this was a fun surprise. It made for some seriously epic cheese pulls

PARMESAN CHICKEN WOOGIE (A rolled calzone with ricotta cheese, choose grilled or breaded chicken, light pizza sauce, parmesan and five-cheese blend. Side of pizza sauce). It comes with chips but I subbed them for beer rub tots and it made for a tasty meal! Super cheesy and flavorful. The tots are worth getting all on their own.

ITALIAN COBB SALAD (Sliced ham, chopped pepperoni and salami, sliced green olives, banana peppers, crumbled bleu cheese. Side of Italian dressing.) super refreshing salad. We got a half size but it was still hearty enough to feed 2 people

ITALIAN PIEROGIES (Potato and cheese pierogies, Italian sausage, onions, green and red peppers, served with marinara). So good! The pierogis were really tasty but the sausage and peppers really shone here. Also came with a side of pizza dough and it was delicious.

The rest of our group ordered a couple pastas, a build-your-own pizza, and fish and chips and while they all said they enjoyed their food, I didn't try any of it so can't speak to it.

All in all I'd definitely come back!

Pizza seems to have gotten worse. It was once great, but most recently it was not cooked as well and was skimpy on cheese and toppings.

Staff is still great.

I'm have been a customer of Danny Boys since it opened in Broadview Heights. Tonight will be the last time we go there. My husband and I simply ordered a pizza and each had 2 drinks. The first pizza they brought out was limp at best and nothing but sauce. I have never sent anything back there, whether I was happy with it or not, but what they served us was absolutely ridiculous. They said it was a new cook and said they would replace it. I asked for a simple mushroom/pepperoni as a replacement. We waited for over an hour and finally I asked if they could cash us out. Miraculously the pizza appeared boxed with the check. I couldn't believe they charged us $60. Sadly you lost a customer who was always in your corner.

Shout out to Danny Boys for their excellent service and awesome food. Had a 50th bday party there and could not have been more pleased. A++++

We can't say enough good about this place. The service is excellent and the food is always delicious. We especially like the woogies and pizza. We are happy to be regulars here!
