Pizza
Pizza is a famous Italian dish savored around the world. The entire credit for the popularity of Pizza in the United States goes to the chain of pizzerias all over the country. While the base and the texture of Pizza remains same across the globe, it's the toppings that differs from country to country. In the United States, you will find the top pizzerias serving pizzas with the toppings of mainly beef, bacon, chicken, ham, and sausage for the non-vegetarians. Other than these famous meat options, Pizzas with veg toppings such as mushrooms, pepperonis, garlic, tomatoes, spinach, etc. are also famous in most restaurants in the United States.
Irrespective of your locality, you will find a variety of different restaurants in your cities offering pizzas of all different types. Pizza is hot favorite among people of all ages in the United States. A large size pizza is enough to feed a family of 3 or 4 at large. Pizza is also the most preferred food whenever a group of friends is hanging out together. Pizza gained popularity in the United States after the American soldiers stationed in Italy returned from World War II.
Over the years, different pizzerias in the United States have developed their own respective regional variations. Pizza gained popularity as the iconic dish in the United States in the second half of the 20th century. Whether you prefer thin or thick crust pizza, you can find a pizza of your preference at the best pizza restaurants in your city.
Italian Cuisine
The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.
Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.
If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.

Punch pizza is legit. I'm so happy they finally opened up in Maple Grove. You can choose from their pizzas or create your own. They cook the pizzas for 90 seconds at 800 degrees. Pretty cool. I've never been to Italy, but apparently this is as close to real Italian pizza as you can get in the cities. Crunchy yet soft crust, fresh crushed tomato sauce, and overall fresh ingredients. Plus a lot of olive oil. Heck yes. I also appreciate their beer list. Not bad for a small pizza place. Wish they had two IPA's but even having one is semi impressive. Now that they are in Maple Grove this will be a regular place for my gf and I.

This is the best pizza in Maple Grove. Tasty, fast, good wine and beer options, nice patio.

Fantastic pizzas and salads! I've been here on two business trips now -- visiting from the western U.S. -- and will be back again!
(5)Mariel J.
Punch is always fast, fresh, and very tasty - love this place for Neopolitan-style pizza!

Ecstatic that I don't have to go to Lake Calhoun or Wayzata to get me some Punch pizza! However, it could be trouble too that it's so conveniently located now for me as I'd be packing on the carb!! I've seen people eating pizza and left the edges of the crust behind so technically they'd be "carb" conscious. Not this girl!! That's my favorite part! Plus this type of Pizza, had crispy crust and not as doughy. Yet, carb is still carb; though, this one is worth the calories and the extra mile jog. Best pizza I've had? Nope. Yet, I won't mind eating this pizza often. They tasted great, easy, fast, and cost efficient. Every time I ordered a delivery pizza, it would cost me about $20 some dollar, even with coupon. After you added the extra topping, delivery fee, tip, it's expensive. With Punch, you could get a pizza under $10, and a specialty kind for under $15. They offer various specialty pizzas and they are fun to try. I always get the salami and fungi and changed the salami to sausage. So, in a way just sausage and shrooms. They added thin slices of garlic on it that just made it deliciouuus!! I love it! I promise I will try the other kinds too on my next visit, which maybe tomorrow and the next day. Easy, fast, good, cheap.. That's how I roll!!

So happy a Punch pizza was opened by us! Neopolitan style pizza is my favorite and even though this is a chain, one of the best I have had in MN to date. Husband and I shared a Siciliani which we added sausage and the hazelnut panini for dessert. Pizza is the perfect size for us, we both got 3 slices each. You get Italian sausage crumbles (yum!) and I love prosciutto and artichokes on a pizza. We literally inhaled the pizza and each had a piece of the dessert panini. Think Nutella spread in between thin crust that made up the panini/bread part. Really gooey and tasty.

Not impressed at all, I really do not get why would people rate it so high? Stopped here for lunch while shopping with my son. Tables too close to one another pretty much you rub elbows with strangers. The pizza, Barely any toppings on it, even if you add extra and order double toppings no, nothing, just mediocre dough crust with a little bit of cheese. Me and my 4 year old, two pizzas and pop for him $23??? Really, I mean I can get better and bigger pizzas for less from a few different gourmet places around and they would probably deliver. I am probably not spending my money here again, I deserve a better value.....
(1)Meghan C.
Simply delicious! Crust was very good! Italian salad-could eat for lunch weekly. Margherita pizza-yummy even with no add ons.
(4)Cameryn L.
Great addition to the arbor lakes area. Punch is an awesome choice for lunch. I ordered my favorite, the Toto and was eating within 3 minutes of placing my order. Tip: follow punch on Twitter for deals!
(5)Phillip B.
Very good pizza, presently surprised, Small salad is a meal by its self. Good price. Good service. Was very pleased with my lunch there.
(5)William B.
Awesome pizzas!!! Having moved from France and being Half Italian I can tell you as a pizza connoisseur that these pies are tasty. If the crust was crunchier, that would be best. A must try. And nice staff.

Oh what a joy it was to FINALLY get around to trying this kind of pizza. Truth be told, I've always resisted the desire to try Neopolitan pizza. I can't explain why, but, I think its the unwavering desire for deep dish in me that keeps me from these kinds of places. Well, finally gave in Sunday and it was amazing. The ordering process was very different for me. I've never been through a cattle drove to order pizza before, but, that was kind of interesting and funny. Grab a menu, wait in a Chipotle'esq line and wait to get to the cashier to tell her what you want. Not a bad setup. I ordered the siciliana (Prosciutto, artichoke, picholine olive, basil) and the woman ordered the Maximus (pepperoni, red peppers, olives, and basil). We also got an order of the rosemary focaccia. Took a stroll out to the patio to sit in the amazing weather we had that day, which was a great little touch considering the location is at Arbor Lakes and it's not possible for each spot there. The focaccia was amazing. I mean, just amazing. I love bread and considering it's devoid on my normal diet, I take any chance to indulge on treat meals and this was a damn fine indulgence. We did throw down some olive oil and vinegar too just for a little extra. My two complaints of the bread however, some slices were entirely over salted. I mean, to the point I had to brush some off because the salt was just overpowering. Also, I'm a fan of having some sauce to dip my bread into. Not having the option on the menu or being asked about a dipping sauce kind of sucked. I'm sure some of their house made crushed tomato sauce would have been killer on this. Onto my pizza. Loved every bite of it, for however long it actually lasted. The saltiness from the prosciutto to match the cream/salt of the mozz and olive was perfect. A perfect crust that was crunchy yet had the perfect chew. I only wish I had a bit more of the sauce on their to compliment things. The sweetness of their crushed tomato sauce, when I did get a hint of it, was amazing. But, maybe an extra little bit was needed to send this pizza into the stratosphere. The Maximus from my girlfriend, which was tough getting her to share with me, was a great pizza. Definitely on the spicy side, so, be warned of this one if you have a sensitivity to spice. The pepperoni and crushed red peppers were great together and the hint of basil you get is perfect. It does get a bit oily though with the pepperoni and that sog's (yes a made up word) up the crust a bit. So, eat it fast. Overall, a solid place and can't wait to stop in again to try another one of their creations or customize my own.

Soupy pizza. Watery, soggy center. Warm, not hot. The only part that seemed dry was the outer crust. The ingredients had been precooked; I wasn't worried about unsafe food, but my pizza definitely deserved to be baked long enough for the crust to be dry. I scraped my toppings out nearer to the edge and ate that part. A frozen pizza from the grocery store would have been a better choice than this was. Yuck.
(1)Denny R.
Worst service of any Punch I have ever been to. Way off brand for them. This is what happens when a good restaurant moves to the burbs and gets staffed by teenagers. Bummer.
(1)M B.
This was a great surprise. The food was great and fast. Looking forward to coming back!
(4)Roxana S.
I really enjoyed it, food was great and service also very good :-) Will go back !

Pizza, real pizza the way it was intended to be made, from my homeland! Love it! I have read reviews from people that don't like Punch because it's not some giant, dripping with tons of cheese, rock hard crust type pizza. To me that is not a bad thing. I do love the odd traditional American style pizza loaded with a bunch of crap and oozing with cheese and meat. Hell the next morning that can be the best ever, fresh from the fridge or counter hangover meal but that is a different creature! Like good authentic Italian food this pizza is about good ingredients and simple flavors. The crust is soft and tender with a nice smoky flavor. The pie is simple as it should be. I had a pepperoni with black olives, capers and garlic. The sauce is a great basic tomato sauce with basil. I could taste everything on this pizza and the flavors together were perfect! This is a new location and despite the fact they have gone to the Mall-feel sort of place its open, comfortable and the pizza comes out of that wood fired (not gas fired with a bunch of wood stacked around it as décor) in under 10 minutes. I'm glad there is one close to home and I am very glad it's a Punch. Viva Italia! KT
(5)Montessahall H.
If one could rate service separate from food I would give them 10 stars! They are exceptional. The pizza is quite authentic. In a blind taste test you would swear you were in Italy. My problem is I don't particularly care for that kind of pizza. If you do like that kind of pizza, then it is definitely five stars.
(2)Tony G.
What a great pizza. I always order a Margherita pizza and never dissapointed. The caesar salad is solid. This location is a notch above others. Nice ambience and great service. Can't wait for my next visit.
(5)Kristi B.
Our first time here. Very happy with the fast service (especially with kids!). Gluten free crust available for the "non-kid" size pizzas. Salad and pizzas were delicious! Nice patio area to sit outside! We will be back!
(5)Tammy K.
I was looking forward to trying Punch Pizza since they've received such good reviews and lots of media attention...what a disappointment! The service was great, but the pizza was way too salty. Too salty! It seemed like it was mainly the crust. Not sure if whoever made the dough today made a mistake or is it always that salty. My son ordered a plain cheese pizza and only ate one slice. He loves pizza! We don't plan on returning.
(1)Brian M.
These guys do a great job. Fresh ingredients and nicely priced. Keep up the good work!

Love Punch pizza. One of my favorite places for a quick lunch. They also serve wine and beer. Nice patio for dining outdoors at the mall.

I love punch pizza! I was especially impressed with this location. The employees were very friendly and helpful. They went above and beyond our expectations and we were very happy with our experience here. We ordered 3 pizzas: 1. Margherita with Pepperoni and Picholine Olive 2. Margherita with Pepperoni and Sausage 3. Margherita with Sun Dried Tomatoes, Saracene Olive, Piparras Pepper, and Goat Cheese We also ordered a Rocket Salad. Everyone was very pleased with their pizza and salad. They did tell us that the Piparras Peppers would be very spicy... they were not spicy at all.
(5)Paruj A.
I love punch (period) Awesome Pizza and they raised the minimum wage they paid their employees to 10 bucks an hour! Punch is hands down my favorite pizza joint in the Twin Cities!
