Donatos Pizza — Restaurant in Owensboro

I absolutely LOVED this place, until I got food poisoning! So 12/26 I ordered a regular pepperoni pizza, ( I had woke up rather late so I skipped breakfast ) and ate a couple slices of pizza at 1:00, I did my normal task throughout the day, and I just felt blah ( I didn’t eat for the rest of the day, because I felt so crummy) and by 8:00pm I started violently vomiting, followed by diarrhea! This continued literally all night, my husband and I thought it was just a stomach bug, until he decided to snack on the left over pizza at about 9:00 pm. Of course I couldn’t sleep due to my symptoms but at 8:00 am on 12/27 my husband wakes up and starts vomiting, that’s when we concluded it was food poisoning, sadly donatos was the only food we both had in common as far as eating. We called the nurses line at the hospital, for it to be confirmed that it was food poisoning! I’ve done some research online and it’s very had to get food poisoning from pizza, but the donatos company has had reports of food poisoning from others across America!!! I would...

I have been reviewing restaurants for quite some time over the years on and off. I used to cook for a living and still cook for others as pleasure.

Many of my friends know that I am a pizza connoisseur. I have had just about every pizza place in Owensboro, KY. Many are good.

Believe me when I say that The Famous Thin Hot Honey Pepperoni Pizza from Donatos Pizza is absolutely killing the game here.🔥💣🍕

The dough has a wonderful flavor. It was cooked great. The hot honey is amazing. It gave a sweet heat that was not too hot but added insane flavor. Superb. I had this as carryout and it stayed in the box a little longer than I would have liked it to but it didnt phase it. I can only imagine straight out of the oven. My order was ready about 4 minutes earlier than I expected. I did arrive early to pick it up through the drive through window. Very nice lady working, they were only open about another 30 min and it was pristine.

If you haven't had it, do yourself a...

First time there yesterday. Very nice locale and great service encounters. Word of caution: I ordered a Gluetin Free pizza due to allergy (I get really sick with Gluetin and have the effects for a week). Ordered, Delicious cauliflower crust. When GF pizza brought to our table (it was beautiful), server asked if GF request was preference or allergy (after I ordered). I said allergy she said kitchen wanted me to known they had cut pizza with Gluetin contaminated pizza cutter. Glad they advised.I 😊ppreciated the warning but ask at point order is placed so you know cross contamination matters for all points of contact.I went ahead ate the pizza (I know, I know..Was thinking how much gluetin on a cutter could there be?) Mistake. Sick. Sharing so Donatos makes sure work surface, gloves, pizza stone and cutting tool are not contaminated and you know this allergy is outside of my control. On basis of my physical response there HAD to have been multiple sources of...
