Donatella |
Came to Donatella tonight with a girlfriend. Have always been intrigued to try pizza outta that glitzy gold oven. We really enjoyed the ambience and settled in for a nice meal.

Squash Blossoms |
We started with the stuffed squash blossoms which were nice, but we both agreed just had too many different flavors going on and kind of lost its way.

Sumer Pizza |
For our main we went with a stone fruit and prosciutto pizza. We really enjoyed the combination of sweet and savory on a pizza- very different. Unfortunately, the crust was quite soggy.

Rainbow Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich |
For dessert, we tried the Rainbow Cookie Ice Cream Sandwich. My friend found the almond flavoring simply too overpowering and after a bite decided to opt for Pinkberry instead. I enjoyed the idea, but also found the almond a bit overdone.
Donatella has a lot of potential, but wound up falling a litte short. With stiff competition from places like Co., I have a hard time seeing myself coming back for a second visit.
