How Much Can I Make?

We've Got All the Right Ingredients.

At Donatos, we’re not just a pizza company. We’re a people company...that makes pizzas. We serve premium pizzas made with love. That’s how we’ve always done it. Our recipe for success goes something like this:

It starts with the crust. From our famous thin crust to hand-tossed to our delicious gluten-free cauliflower crust, they are all baked with love to golden, crispy perfection.

Next comes only the best, freshest ingredients. From freshly-cut Roma tomatoes, green peppers, and onions to real, naturally smoked, aged Provolone, every ingredient matters, and you can taste it in every bite. That’s why you’ll find no artificial flavors or colors in any of our pizzas, subs, or salads. When it comes to toppings, nobody tops Donatos. We load our pizzas Edge to Edge^Ⓡwith the finest, most flavorful toppings, packing deliciousness into every bite. That’s Why we put 100 pieces of our famous family recipe pepperoni on every large thin crust pepperoni pizza.

We care about every pizza. Every bite. Every ingredient. And every pizza experience. Why? Well, it’s the words we live by: Every piece is important^®.
