Death by Pizza in Hildesheim

Originally decorated pizzeria with delicious pizzas and delicious cocktails

Pizza and pasta were super tasty and freshly prepared. There were three of us and we waited about 15 minutes until the food was ready.

The food is very good. The pizza and pasta are on point. There is a large selection of dishes. In the lower part you are served at the table. The furnishings are very harmonious. The outside is inviting.

The ambience is very great. No matter where you look you see many "posters" with cool pictures or sayings from pop culture and more. Very nice coordinated choice of colors for the entire interior design. What I think is good, in addition to the presentation, is the fact that they offer something like mac and cheese, for example. In my opinion, this is not ordinary Italian cuisine, but a slightly modified one that tries something new. And rightly so in the fast food and kebab town of Hildesheim. The open kitchen is very reminiscent of the former VaPiano concept. The service was great, I was served by a small, young, black-haired lady who was super friendly and explained everything to me and was able to answer all my questions. The pizza was OK. Didn't think the dough was bad. Unfortunately the pizza was a bit lukewarm. I've been there three times now. Each time I only noticed one negative thing: the food seemed a little too lightly seasoned for my personal taste. Seasoning with salt and a pepper mill is possible as these are at every table. The shop is definitely worth a visit.

This place, under new management, has maintained everything that made it special, improving the quality of table service. The modern environment, with its minimalist and elegant design, welcomes guests in a relaxing and refined atmosphere. The menu offerings continue to surprise particularity and balance of flavors, always with an original touch that hits the mark. Friendly and professional service, for an experience not to be missed!

I was looking forward to Death by Pizza, especially after all the hype reviews and promising photos. But unfortunately my experience was a complete disappointment. First about ordering: the wait was absurdly long, and when the pizza finally arrived it was lukewarm rather than hot. At that price I at least expect the food to be delivered in good condition! The price-performance ratio is not right at all. Even the cheapest frozen pizza tastes way better. Conclusion: If you want a good pizza, you're better off going somewhere else. I definitely won't eat here again!

We have been there several times and have always been relatively satisfied. But now we probably won't be back until further notice. It started when we were given the wrong dish at first. For us as vegans who then received vegetarian pasta instead of a vegan pasta dish, this was initially quite unfortunate. We ate the pasta anyway because otherwise it probably would have been thrown away. But we would certainly have gotten a new one, that was our decision. It can happen sometimes. Then I got my order: a vegan bruscetta pizza, according to the menu. There was also animal mozerella cheese on it, which we only noticed a little later. However, the menu clearly stated, marked by the "V symbol", that the pizza was vegan, even if it said "Mozerella". We assumed that this was probably vegan mozerella. Funnily enough: other dishes say “also available vegan” as an additional addition. When we commented on the whole thing, we got the answer that we had to say this about the pizza, that it should be vegan??? But the addition was not on the Bruscetta Pizza. This can quickly become unpleasant for people with lactose intolerance or other intolerances. The dish is declared very misleadingly on the menu. Unfortunately we didn't even get a discount or anything similar, which was a shame.

Unfortunately, we waited unsuccessfully for about 20 minutes at the table for service and then left the restaurant again

The most delicious pizza in Hildesheim, I recommend everyone to visit this place.👍🫶

The food was great, there's nothing to complain about. But we didn't know anything about the ordering system, and it wasn't explained when we came in, so we sat a little longer until we noticed that it was self-service here. Everything is a bit complicated, including the fact that all the drinks are not available in the same place, but rather separately. The food wasn't ready at the same time, too bad. But the atmosphere was pleasant and the prices were reasonable.

I find the concept of “full price for half the service” very questionable.

So the food tasted good and was pretty cheap too. However the service was very poor. There were six of us. After 30 minutes, three dishes were ready. It was said that the other three dishes will be brought shortly. After another 20 minutes, when the first people at the table had eaten, we asked where the food was. Then we noticed that the food was already ready and it had already cooled down again. The restaurant gave a price reduction after a complaint when paying

A true pizza paradise discovered! The pizza here is simply the best I've ever tasted. The sourdough base gives every pizza a unique touch - crispy, aromatic and simply incomparable. The dough thickness is perfectly balanced, neither too thin nor too thick. The homemade sauces are particularly impressive. They taste so authentic and delicious, as if they were personally prepared by an Italian nonna. Every bite is a pleasure that takes you straight to Italy. For all pizza lovers, this restaurant is an absolute must. A culinary journey not to be missed. We came here especially from Hanover and it was worth it.

A nice restaurant, modern and trendy. The pizza is good and the service is friendly. Convenient in the outdoor area and directly at one of the passages to the Arneken. Inside I would create a few more comfortable seats with backrests and armrests. A few seasoning oils for pizza are cheap to make and would brighten up the visit for people who like it a little spicier. All in all, a good starting point when visiting the city center 👍

Very nice shop. The food is a little more expensive but definitely worth it. I had very very tasty pasta. I would love to come back. Absolutely recommended!

It was a very nice stay and the service from the blonde condition in particular is excellent. Gladly again

We were here for the first time. We liked it a lot. Food was good too. It's quite cozy and rustic.

My 8 year old son can make better pasta with fried vegetables. Just embarrassing for an Italian restaurant. In the baguette you will find tough meat that was pre-fried 3 days ago. Unfortunately, not everyone can season. Absolutely no recommendation, we won't be coming back.

Unfortunately my visit to this restaurant was very disappointing. The service was anything but attentive. As soon as I entered the restaurant I felt ignored and my needs were not addressed throughout my entire stay. They didn't even ask if everything was okay. The dishes remained on the table, even though we had obviously finished eating, and no one asked if we would like something more to drink or dessert. Instead, we received strange looks, as if we should leave the store. Another big drawback was that the food wasn't served at the same time. By the time the second dish finally arrived, the first one was already cold - something like that shouldn't happen. In addition, the staff was very dry and unfriendly. We weren't given any leftover food because the employees weren't interested in us late in the evening. All in all a disappointing visit. I definitely won't be coming back.

I ordered food and it arrived cold.

The food was just amazing! Recommended!

Beer is delicious. The environment is hot. I recommend

Huge store, therefore quite uncomfortable. The pizzas were very tasty. Unfortunately the service was subpar. Nobody cares about the guests in the store. Disinterest, very long waiting times to order, pay and receive food, even though there was nothing going on in the store.

Very delicious pizzas! A pizza for one person leaves you very full. I recommend sharing if you are not very hungry, otherwise one pizza per person is fine.

Very tasty pizza! Atmospheric hall.

Food OK, wait time way too long, price - well, I waited 1:45 hours I don't think I will order from there again

If you love a different kind of pizza, you have to come here.

Great food, great ambience and relaxed staff, always happy

Very good service and of course excellent pizzas, don't miss the opportunity to visit this highly recommended pizzeria

We went on a short trip to Hildesheim purely by chance through the Arneken Gallery and arrived here at this restaurant on our first evening. What was there to drink, ate and drank the next time and then met friends here on the third evening, highly recommended. The local, super good food, very great, great value for money here because the service is also great

It's okay.. but I've eaten better pizzas.. wouldn't be my first choice.

Delicious food and possible to eat outside. Nice staff. We had tuna salad and a pizza tuna.

Chic shop where Vapiano used to be. Same service as Vapiano, I don't like it. You have to take everything yourself, pick up cutlery, napkins and the food yourself. Just way too expensive for the price. The food was ok... But nothing more

Food is very good, it is my favourite go-to in Hildesheim. The portions are huge and very tasty, also unusual combinations of ingredients which give them a twist and will surprise you. It is better to dine in there than let it deliver it to you, its not the same when the pizza is already cold. But the place is huge and theres always a free table. give this one a try!!

Delicious pizza. Nothing else ❤️

Good pizza, modern premises and pleasant service.

I would like to share my recent experience at this restaurant, which was unfortunately very disappointing. The service left a lot to be desired, especially the behavior of the waiter. As a single guest, I was asked to change my table, which I found extremely rude. Furthermore, the waiter showed no commitment and did not offer me any alternative solutions. This inappropriate behavior greatly affected my visit. Based on this experience, I unfortunately cannot recommend this restaurant.

Today I just drank a delicious hello-wake cappu. Thanks for that, very nice employees and I didn't die. The menu reads interestingly, I'd love to come back and try out which pizza turns me on so much that I'll die for it...death by pizza!

Nice place with good food, nice prices

Unfortunately, I can't understand the mostly good reviews here at all. Today (November 17th, 2022) the only good thing was actually the pizza... Sequentially: - Arrival at the restaurant: no staff visible, the "order card" was only found after a long search and questions. - Immediately afterwards it became clear why - a single employee was responsible for handing out the cards, taking orders, the bar and ultimately payment processing - later he also rolled raw dough balls for the pizza... there were around 20 customers in the room Restaurant that seats well over 100 - I don't even want to imagine what the service is like when the restaurant is full. - The employee in question was not only overworked, he also lacked any technical or product knowledge. He didn't know the wines - neither the ones on the menu (which were obviously out of stock anyway) nor the ones he had in the bar. Vodka as a digestif was also not available & we were unexpectedly served a Jack Daniels Cola as vodka... - but the biggest disappointment was the food... the grilled vegetables (starter) were a sourly preserved ready-made product that was drowned in oil in a grill pan and prepared lukewarm and was provided without bread or anything like that. The only thing the Caesar salad had in common with the original recipe was the bread croutons. Only the pizza was crispy & tasty & therefore acceptable (hence the one star). To end it badly, my Edenred card was not accepted (despite the logo at the entrance)...probably because the acceptance point was no longer available. All in all: very disappointing and unfortunately once again a confirmation of the service desert Germany after Corona. If the innkeepers complain about a lack of guests, they should first do their homework... otherwise they themselves will be responsible for the downward spiral in the catering industry.

Still very filling. The four of us didn't like the fact that the drinks came quite late. The rest was, as always, recommended.

Nice atmosphere, nice staff and good food.

Updated 2024..This year we stayed again in Hildesheim and then got to go and try the food here. The food was super good and really nice treatment The staff was a bit stressful but they he with everything. Passed by and saw this nice restaurant, had missed it I was looking for somewhere to eat, but still went in here and had a beer, saw their menu looks really good

Unusual menu but the process of a self-service restaurant ruins a lot of the great impression.

Very good, I can only recommend it.

Best pizzeria in the Hanover region, best shopping opportunities in the Arneken Galerie 🫶

Price/performance fits 100%. Everything was very delicious. Ordering drinks and food at the counter and picking them up (food) is no problem.

The food is very good, you can't complain, just a bit difficult to order and pick up yourself, otherwise friendly staff.

Death by Pizza is a shop with many different products, you can customize almost all dishes when it comes to meat and pasta, for example. We had pasta dishes and I absolutely love the preparation because you could see all the steps and nothing was hidden. The only thing I could deduct is that you have to add a little seasoning every now and then, you just can't please everyone. It is served in such a way that you can simply pack it into a take-away container yourself. The store looks really great and the staff is super friendly and well attended due to the location. Just to remove and relax

The atmosphere is very cozy and appealing. The food tastes good. I don't think self-service is that good in a restaurant over two floors. There are also two queues because food and drinks are at separate counters.

Super tasty pizza 🍕 and very relaxed atmosphere

Today I ordered a salad for lunch with my daughter and I really have to say: both salads were excellent! Everything very fresh and perfectly prepared with fresh, toasted bread. Since I wasn't sure about the dressing, I was given a sample - I've actually never experienced that before, it was very thoughtful 😊 We will be happy to come back and I highly recommend Death by Pizza!

They didn't want to push the tables and chairs together

Absolutely great taste. Fair prices, large portions, simply tastes great. Unfortunately there is a bit of a lack of communication: Papardelle was ordered for the second time, but spaghetti was prepared. Personally, I don't eat spaghetti at all, it's just not my type of pasta. If there is no Papardelle, simply ask for an alternative and do not decide for the customer. But it's more like complaining at a high level. As I said, overall it's great. Friendly staff, great ambience and delicious food.

Food is delicious but quite expensive.

We were there for the first time and I have to say, the food tasted very, very tasty, all the dishes we ordered were taste grade 1! We will come back when we stay in Hildesheim! Stay healthy

Mega shop, mega pizza....only problem is, the shop is in Hildesheim. Way too good a shop for a city like this.

Great pizza creations, beyond the standard pizzas. The open kitchen allows you to see how your own food is being prepared. Very friendly staff, you pick up your own food and drinks, so the service is difficult to rate.

I love the extraordinary selection here, I've never been disappointed, special requests are fulfilled. I'll always come back

The ingredients were all fresh and I mean all the ingredients. The desserts were really delicious and the staff was really very accommodating. I found the payment system to be really creative and the location invites you to stroll around, you really feel at home.

Everything great! Very appealing atmosphere. Thank you very much ❣️

Very tasty pizzas, also gluten-free!!!!

Everything is super nice. What bothers me is that at every good Italian restaurant I get a good wine with my meal. Firstly, I realized that you can't get anyone there before 5 p.m. 😅. Otherwise it's really nice 🥰 I'd love to do it again

Really delicious pasta. I can only recommend.

Good food. Large menu. It's a pizza bar.

Finally a pizza restaurant where everyone gets their money's worth. Since I have to eat gluten-free, we haven't been able to go out for pizza together for a long time. No problem here and everything was delicious. The restaurant is modern and comfortably furnished, the staff is attentive and friendly... We are already looking forward to our next visit. 👍😀

Food was really okay, ambience was very nice but staff was more than unfriendly

Impossible!!! You order a parzzonu baguette for 14€ with 3€ extra ruccula for 1 gram of topping!!! They don't treat you with the ingredients!!! It's not worth it!!!!

Very tasty and well organized staff.

Nice place, excellent staff, fast service, cheap if we consider the amazing locations.

Is structured like Vapiano. You get a card, go to the area where you want food and order there. Food is booked on the card, you receive a beeper which vibrates when the food is ready and you can pick it up yourself. At the end you pay just before the exit. The food is good. Large selection, prices are ok. In the lower area you sit on stools at high tables, which isn't very comfortable in the long run.

Super delicious food and nice staff

Coppypast from Vapiano, unfortunately all the dishes were too low in salt and therefore very boring I really like the concert 👍 Price list good if more salted

Everything perfect very nice very good very nice staff worth going. Benny

We ordered via Ubereats - the delivery driver was one of the warmest people I have ever met, would happily do so again! Food was also very tasty and fresh!

Great food and great ambience. I would come back at any time.

The service seems half-baked, as if it had only opened last week. Pizza of moderate quality. Ambience undecided - Mexican or American? Overall, mediocre system catering.

Hip location, not very inviting to linger for a long time. The constant running back and forth of guests who have to hand in and pick up their orders themselves means there is no coziness. The constant noise level also contributes to this.

Für ein schnelles Essen ganz gut

We've been here several times and we really like the food and the ambience! Once you understand the payment/ordering concept, everything runs smoothly ;)

Waren zur Firmenweihnachtsfeier hier. Essen war sehr lecker und vom Service her vergleichbar mit den Vapianos🙌🔥🤙

Das Essen ist sehr zu empfehlen👌 Der Käsekuchen ist ein Traum. Wenn ich könnte würde ich 10 Sterne geben ⭐️ Immer wieder gerne ... Top !!!!

Schon lange nicht mehr so eine gute Pizza gegessen, Nettes Personal, Preise sind vollkommen in Ordnung. Besonders Abends eine angenehme Atmosphäre. Empfehlenswert!

Geht gar nicht. Personal ni ht qualifiziert und mit dich selbst beschäftigt. Pizzateig nicht gut. Belagbnicht gut. War nicht schärft, alles selber holen etc...

Best restorant in Hildesheim center

This place is amazing! Very nice staff, great food, beautiful place. Bartenders and chefs do a great job.I love the staff here. They are perfect, smiling, the food is delicious, … 🥰

Sehr schönes Restaurant! Das Essen ist Sehr lecker !

War richtig gut und lecker 😋 ,Dankeschön 🫡

2 einfache Pizzen Margherita bestellt... Lieferdienst völlig überfordert, stand hilflos vor dem Vorderhaus, trotz Adresszusatz Hinterhaus. Beim Auspacken in der Küche festgestellt dass eine Pizza falsch geliefert wurde. Nach 2 Telefonaten und nochmals 20 Minuten Warten, bekamen wir dann die richtige nachgeliefert. Der Zusteller ist am einfachsten als chaotisch zu bezeichnen, wühlt planlos in seinen Liefertaschen, packt die Kartons hin und her. Die Pizzen waren bestenfalls durchschnittlich und auch nur warm. Werden in Zukunft wieder bei Domino's bestellen.

Wir haben Mac n Cheese zum Liefern bestellt. Das Essen hat gut geschmeckt. Die Portionen waren allerdings winzig und nur lauwarm. Wir sind davon leider überhaupt nicht satt geworden.

Wir waren mit unseren Kids dort und es war super. Der Service sehr freundlich und gut drauf. Die Location sehr ansprechend(modern,rustikal) und coole Countrymusik. Wir hatten gefüllte Pizzen und es war ein Gedicht. Die beste gefüllte Pizza die wir jemals gegessen haben. Wir werden auf jeden Fall wieder bei Death by Pizza essen.

TOP 🍕 very good price and beatiful place for eat. 10/10

Essen war gut..Frisch und schmackhaft..Pizza und Avocado Ranch... Visuell schön zurecht gemacht...Leider gabs keinen Wassernapf für den Hund...

Waren das erste mal dort und wurden positiv überrascht. Essen war sehr lecker eine große Auswahl und Preis/Leitung passt.

Sehr sehr sehr lecker. Für mich war es das erste Mal, war etwas überfordert mit den Abläufen. Sonst sehr gut. Gerne wieder.

Пицца одна из лучших в Хильдесхайме. Порции очень большие и это очень хорошо, так же повара очень вкусно. Еду можно забрать с собой. Атмосфера очень приятная, уютная. С удовольствием прийду сюда ещё раз.🙂🧡

Mich persönlich holt das Konzept einfach nicht ab; schon als Vapiano nicht. Es bleibt Kantinenflair durch das Selbstbedienen. Meine Pizza war einfach nicht gut, der Knoblau darauf viel zu dick geschnitten und nicht wie angegeben geröstet, sondern einfach so drauf. Getränke waren unsere ersten beiden Wahlen beide nicht vorrätig. Ich wollte dem Laden für mich nochmal eine Chance geben, aber ein Reinfall.

Absolut empfehlenswert! Die beste Pizza meines Lebens! ☺️ Immer wieder gerne 💚

Death by Pizza. Passender Name, weil man verhungert ist bis das Essen fertig ist. Und dann ist es geschmacklich auch nicht das Wahre..

War mit meiner Klasse hier essen, es schmeckte sehr lecker und alles hat gepasst! Werde auf jeden Fall wieder hingehen.
