Brianno's Deli Italia Eagan MN

I was very satisfied with their pizza, actually one of the best pizzas I’ve had in a long time. The crew behind the counter were pleasant and very friendly. We also got a deli sandwich that was amazing. This is an order and go place but they do have outdoor tables to sit at. Over all I enjoyed the food and had a great experience. I would definitely order from here again.

Absolutely divine! We are so glad we tried this place! All the food was fantastic. I tried the pasta special (penne ala vodka) and it was awesome. The garlic cheese bread was fabulous. We liked the Caesar salad, especially the croutons. My husband really liked his meatball sub too! We want to come back to try the pizza and take home meals. You must get the spumoni ice cream. It is heaven if you like spumoni. Oh! And the pistachio cake might be one of the best pieces of cake I’ve ever had. 🤩 The people working there are wonderful. Very friendly and helpful. There is not a place to eat inside, but there are tables outside. Since it was a bit rainy, we took our meal to a park. We will be back!

If you're looking for authentic Italian deli fare, Brianno's is the real deal. The location wasn’t quite where I was expecting—tucked away and easy to miss if you’re not familiar with the area—but absolutely worth finding. I was genuinely impressed with the sandwiches – packed with flavor and clearly made with quality ingredients. The price point felt fair considering the portion sizes; I easily got two hearty servings out of just half a hoagie. The taste was incredible – rich, fresh, and satisfying in every bite. I can't wait to come back and try more from their menu! Highly recommend for anyone craving a true Italian deli experience.

Briannos is one of my absolute favorite places to eat and the Moscato berry tiramisu is just out of this world! So many amazing dishes to choose from and never disappointing!

The red gravy (sauce) is excellent. 2nd best I've ever had. Meatballs need work though, as they tasted primarily like ground beef to me. The Sausage Hero sandwich was incredible, one of the very best sandwiches I've ever had. They no longer offer the Hot Dago sandwich though, which is unfortunate. Chicago Style Roast Beef Sub was good but not great. I ordered the mild one, but should've gotten the spicy instead. Coffee Tiramisu was absolute perfection, but the serving size for the price is quite small. 4 out of 5 stars overall ✨️

It has been years since I stopped by here, but I needed a couple of ingredients to make my baked rigatoni so I came here. I bought their Italian sausage and mozzarella for it and both were very high quality! I also bought their homemade cheesecake for a dessert and that was also great, awesome job guys and I’ll start stopping by more often!

This is a very nice place but also very small. As an Italian though, I was very disappointed in the selection. One tiny double sided shelf of “groceries” and a very limited cold cut selection. There’s a few hot dishes that looked ok but again, not many options. I didn’t try the pizza but they were selling a lot when I was there. It smelled good is all I can say. For one of the top rated Italian deli/grocery stores in Minneapolis, I was not happy. Minnesota needs better and more Italian options.

Great service, 1/2 sandwiches are HUGE and full of meat. They make their own pasta that's in the freezers and fresh mozzarella balls in the deli case. I got the muffuletta, it was delicious. Busy spot, super friendly staff.

I thoroughly enjoyed this Italian market/deli/pizza/pasta. No energy or inspiration to cook dinner? This is the answer! While it's got zero space for sit down dining, they are on top of their takeout game. The staff were efficient and filled orders quickly. I found the prices fair, and I look forward to a return visit to try out some other items. I really enjoyed the soup and see they post a new daily soup/pasta item to Facebook. What we tried: - Italiano sub 3/5 (bread was harder/crustier than I would have liked & sub was so wide it was hard to fit your mouth around it) - Chicago roast beef sub 4/5 (hefty amount of beef) - Daily soup (5/5) chicken vegetable (really great flavor and wide assortment of veg with huge chicken chunks) - Carrot cake (5/5) - Tiramisu (5/5).

6/27 placed an order for a large pepperoni and a large pep/meatball pizza. Instead of meatballs we got pepperoni and olives (we don't like olives). Since the order was picked up right before close I wasn't able to go back or call. And then had the task of finding something to feed the people who were anticipating pizza. I remembered I placed my order online, so I sent an email and photo of the $23 inedible pizza hoping for a refund. No response. Followed up on 7/1, again, no response. I understand mistakes happen but am upset that there was no follow up or acknowledgement to either of my efforts to contact them.

Brianno's has been on my list for a while, and I finally gave it a try...so glad I did! Eagan's best-kept secret until now. As soon as you walk in, you're hit with the most incredible Italian smells. If you weren't hungry before, you definitely will be now. It's a smaller spot that's mostly carry-out with just a few outdoor tables but it was BUSY when I stopped in. The menu has everything from pizzas and deli sandwiches to hot dishes like lasagna and pasta (hot and cold). There's also a little grocery section with frozen meals, sauces, and desserts to take home. While I was waiting, multiple staff members checked in to make sure I was being helped. All were super friendly and attentive even during the dinner rush. I loved how they'd acknowledge when a customer walked in and told them they'd be right with them as soon as they were able to. I ordered the Brianno's Italiano and Club sandwiches (half sizes) and couldn't resist grabbing slices of pistachio and Moscato berry tiramisu. WOW. The sandwiches are meaty and packed with flavor. Heads up: the bread is a bit firmer than most sandwich shops, but I thought it worked really well with the hearty fillings. I cannot wait to return and try the pizza and probably more dessert too! YUMMMM-OOO!

I don't know how the do it, but this place serves the best take out pizza around! Thin crust, cheesy, huge chunks of Italian sausage, the perfect amount of greasy pepperoni, and amazing flavor. The service is great too, and the shop features a little deli for Italian essentials if you need them.

Delicious pizza and home made bread. Very personable staff. Highly recommend Brianno's for lunch, dinner, or even your hosting needs with their large selection of pre-made take and bake dishes

I died and went to Sicilian heaven! A half sandwich would still feed 3 women Frozen fresh everything! Will be back

What is there not to love about the food here!?!?! My favorite is the pizza, then the sausage and peppers. Excellent!

The website menu and prices need to be updated. This is an obviously have a successful operation but it wasn't what I was expecting. It is set up for takeout only. I thought it would be more like Cecil's with indoor seating combined with a deli. Seeing how it was raining when we were therethe outdoor tables didn't work out. I think most of their customers order online, pick it up and take it home. When we were there things could have gone a little faster if the staff knew how to work together a little better but they really don't get live customers coming in and placing orders. I saw 3 people and was told that there were 3 more in the kitchen. Maybe they need that many when they are busy but it was really overkill when we were there. They are not set up for walk-in business so they didn't know how to deal with us. It was frustrating and took way too long. My hot roast beef had cooled considerably by the time it finally made it to the register. I drove 40 miles and had a Chicago style Italian roast beef sandwich because one of their loyal customers mentioned that it shouldn't have been left out of a list of places that severed Chicago Italian roast beet sandwiches on Racketmn.com I don't expect them to change anything on my say so but here's my opinion: I don't know what kind of liquid they dipped the beef in for 10 seconds but if it was anything more than hot water I'd be surprised. The beef seemed to lack any seasoning whatsoever including salt. Cheese doesn't belong on a Chicago style. It belongs on a Philly. The bun should be smaller and softer. It my have worked well for Italian Grinders/Hoagies but for a Chicago style it just isn't right. I would have preferred a lot more Giardiniera and I wish they had given me Au Jus. If I had ordered online I would have asked for it. They should've known to ask or just provided it. They seem to have an online ordering system but it doesn't match the in store menu at all. I'm not the kind of person they normally have as a customer. If you are, give them a try. If I lived closer I'd be back to try some of the other items. They look like they have some good things going. The lasagna looked very tempting but $50 worth would last me almost two weeks. It is just too much. I won't be back for a Chicago style. On a scale from 1 to 10 I'm going give it a 3 out of 10. It was an OK sandwich but not exactly what I was hoping for. It can't make up its mind if it wants to be from Chicago or Philly. The identity crisis doesn't serve it well.

I love Briannos it's the bomb. The pizza is great. I love the food . This is the go to place for Italian food. I wish we could get a Brianno's Italian Deli in Rosemount, MN

I stopped by to grab a quick lunch- I got the Brianno's Club sandwich and a piece of the tiramisu. The tiramisu was DELICIOUS! The sandwich was a little messy because it was stuffed with toppings, but VERY good. I got a half size, which is a good portion size for 1 person. The staff was polite and friendly. They have ready to eat options, meals to cook at home, and a small grocery section. There is not seating inside but there is outdoor seating with picnic tables. There's a large parking lot out front so no issues with parking. I'll for sure be back to try out more of the sandwiches, and the pizza and pasta!

Great Sicilian sandwich, had the small. It was large for lunch with a lot of meat. Will go back. Wish they had indoor seating.

Love their authentic Italian food. The pizza is great and their sandwiches are humongous! One of our families favorite places to grab takeout food.

While living in Eagan, Brianna's became my absolute favorite pasta and pizza place in the SE side of the cities. Looking to get away from chain pizza/pasta -try this place and you'll never go back... My traditional order became the Brianno's special if I was having pizza (like a supreme). If that night was pasta - then the baked rigatoni always hit the spot. What else makes this place unique? It's an Italian grocery store! You can pick up staples like their meats and sauces to use at home! Not to mention... frozen versions of their pizzas for take and bake convenience!

What a surprise! We found this place on accident surfing yelp for pizza. We live in Prior Lake and aren't afraid to drive.... Anyhoo run don't walk! We stuck to a classic large pepperoni. Cheese was perfect yellow/brown a pile of pepperoni and the crust was perfect. Love square cut pizza. I'll be back!

Please Please Please Please cater my grad party. The food is amazing. Service was great. Everyone was so kind and willing to help.

Best pizza around. I typically go with a large sausage cooked to well done (nice and crispy crusty). Typically I also get a pint of spumoni for a treat. Friendly people behind the counter.

Use to live and work in the south metro and Brianno's was always a favorite lunch take out spot. Was in the area and had to get the Brianno's half sandwich and it still does not disappoint. Do not live or work in the area now but will always get a Brianno's sandwich when in town.

No place to sit inside. Food was ? Why would an Italian deli serve chili? The salad was gross and stale. Won't go back

I've been wanting to try this place for a long time. Oh, my Lord! So glad I did! Exceptional Got a pizza sandwich and some cannolis Fantastic!!

Superb pizza. It deserves 12 stars Can't believe we slept on this place the first year we lived in Apple Valley

The large pizza is HUGE! Delicious cheesy pizza in every bite. Love the crust, love the sauce and love the customer service at Brianno's. If you want to impress and please your guests get Brianno's. Their frozen pastas are just as delicious as their pizzas.

Amazing Italian deli. Pizza is the best around. The fresh baked bread and the tiramisu are fantastic too.

Best pizza hands down. Staff is super friendly. Always a good rotating selection of hot ready to go food. Good quality deserts and assortment of frozen take and bake foods. Grocery section a little on the light side, but stocked with the basic fare. Love this place

Last minute dinner the night before thanksgiving and we decided to give Brianno's a go! For some reason I thought this was a take and bake style place for pizza..but it is so much more! First off, they make the best pizzas and bake to order or you can grab from their take and bake cases. They have a hot case that had several other options ranging from lasagna to Italian sausage and peppers, soups and salads. Everything we tried was amazing! NOT TO MENTION THEIR FRESH BREAD! You can buy their premade sauces in their cold case as well as several desserts! I plan on trying everything...meals planned for quick nights right here! We decided on the large house special pizza and found out there was about a 30 minute wait..this is a busy place! People were calling in orders and running in to grab other things as well. While we were waiting and chatting one of the employees brought my husband and I each a little sample plate of all their hot foods they had prepared for the night. Omg y'all...everything was fantastic! Their fresh bread with the vinaigrette was amazingly! We ordered a fresh loaf of bread and dressing to go after trying it! We actually were completely full after all the food! We were getting ready to head out as soon as the pizza came out when the owner approached us and asked our names. He introduced himself and came back a second later with a cheesecake slice in a container he had drawn our names and a little heart on. Customer service at its finest. We would have come back for the food alone, but their service was above and beyond. We couldn't believe how happy everyone was and how nice. The owner was cheering his employees on and it was such a positive atmosphere that I almost asked for a job. Also, there is a tv on the wall that plays pictures of their employees and different info..it was so fun and interesting. This place is perfection.

This is the best pizza EVER. We totally got a pizza from here randomly (Brianno's is catering our wedding and we wanted to sample their lasagna but ended up also getting a pizza because carbs are LIFE) and now we probably get it once a week. Not only is the pizza THE TASTIEST THING EVER but the staff is so awesome.They're attentive, helpful, friendly and will even walk your pizza out to your car and make sure it's somewhere secure before you drive home. My fave: the house special minus mushrooms. My fiance's fave: Classic sausage and pepperoni. I'm salivating just thinking about this pizza. My only critique is that it is thin crust and can be greasy so get it home and eat it quickly otherwise it might be a little soggy. Great for eating cold leftovers or tossing in the oven for a quick reheat!!

Want Italian Go to Italy impossible to duplicate. Why fake it it's only 65-75 % real want more the Cheese the pasta the sauce , the oil the wine is 2nd rate!

Check another location off my never ending and always growing list. We actually tried visiting Brianno's a few years ago, pre GPS days and couldn't find it. Well this day we did find it. They are location behind Penn Cycle off of Cliff. Now we know where they are at, we'll be coming back. Brianno's reminds of the family owned Italian Deli's in Chicago. They have a few isles of sauces, olive oils, pasta's and other goodies. There is a freezer section with pizzas, pasta's, sauce and some desserts. They have a hot foods section on their counter which also has a case full of meats, cheeses and salads. There is a spot for sandwiches and even fresh backed bread. Does one really need anything else? As we usually do when we visit a place like Brianno's, we pick up a nice hearty sample. This day we picked up a couple of pizzas, some sausage and peppers and their special pasta from their prepared foods, some prepared Italian meatballs and a couple of other treats. The only downside to our visit was we were hoping to pick up their chicken lasagna that we had read about in some reviews however we were told that is a special order item and need to call ahead next time. We ate the hot foods for lunch and the pizzas for dinner. The pasta was very good and while I prefer a little more spice in my sausage, the sausage and peppers had very good flavor. What really stood out on their pizzas was how good the cheese was. My wife had the Kevin McCallister special while I had the supreme with sausage, pepperoni, mushrooms and green peppers. Pro tip on this pizza, cut it in squares instead of strips. With all those toppings the squares hold up better. Bonus is there is a email/frequent buyers club that you can earn points on with your purchase. We already scored 10 points and look forward to returning for that chicken lasagna as well as some more tasty items.

Absolutely perfect and delicious Italian food. Brianno's is a true hidden gem in South Eagan. I heard about them from a friend and discovered they had online ordering (my favorite.) Looking at the menu was hard because I wanted it all! We resorted to ordering lasagna, eggplant parmesan sandwich, muffuletta, margherita pizza, cannoli and tiramisu. We wanted to try all the classics. Well first let me say if you plan to order that "sandwich" it is enough food for 4 people. I think they call it a wedge? It's their baked bread just sliced open and stuffed full of eggplant parm. It was SUPERB. The desserts were some of the best I've ever had. The pizza is perfect and light and crispy. It's 3 days later and we're still eating leftovers! When you go in, it's a bit confusing how to order/pick-up, but they do have a little store in there too for you to pick up the Italian groceries you can't find at your regular store. Honestly, this was an amazing experience that I will be repeating soon.

This is kind of a hidden away place but a great place to stop by for ingredients to make Italian or to buy ready-to-heat or ready-to-wear meals! We went the first time, we got a pasta dish and a sandwich to go. The ingredients were very good and the pasta was cooked very nicely, but the sandwich, while made with good ingredients, wasn't as enjoyable as it could have been with less bread. The bun itself was huge, and honestly kind of dry, and compared to the meat/cheese it was hard to find the inside through the bread. To be fair, when I had a sandwich in Italy it was actually kind of that way as well, so it may just be that we are used to more meat and filings. But the service was friendly and they had a lot of great choices in the coolers to take home and cook/eat and that was really fun. We also got a couple of deli-type pasta salads and those were pretty good as well. A fun place to check out!

This place was ah-mazing, and I cannot believe how long it took for us to stop by. I am so glad we did, the food is quality, and reminds you of what you'd get from a hometown deli. I suppose this is a hometown deli in a sense, so if you're looking for that quality and atmosphere in a business, this is the place. When COVID hit I had been watching Brianno's Facebook page to see when they would be serving their macaroni and cheese side (it's one of the daily specials) and when it came up that day we decided we had to try it! We grabbed the macaroni and cheese, an Italian club and the Chicago style beef sandwich and my goodness was it amazing. I'm only knocking one star off for the prices, while I was fine to pay them since this is a local business during a pandemic, I did think it was a little much for what we got (particularly the macaroni and cheese). However, I will still buck up the cash if and when I get the hankering for that again!

You Such great service and their pizza was the best I have ever had. Please try out their Oreo cakes as well.

I ordered a muffuletta sandwich from here. Willing to pay the high price of the sandwich I was hoping it would be good. The bread was so hard, I couldn't eat it. Had to go to the grocery store and buy hoagie bread to actually try it. Disappointing and definitely not worth the crazy price.

True Italian in every sense of the word. The service was good. The food was ready when they said it was going to be ready. ( we picked up ). Great smells as soon as you walk in the door.

Hands down the best pizza in the Twin Cities. They also have great lasagna, sausage, and peppers. Can't go wrong. We live 1.5 miles away.

Oily sub par cracker crust , not even real pizza. What I've come to learn after reading recommendations from Minnesotans's is that Minnesotans do not know great Pizza. NOTHING LIKE EAST COAST PIZZA! I threw it out.

The Italian sub here is the best sandwich I've ever had !so flavorful. You can tell it is a family owned place and I love that everyone is always so nice !

Brianno's has authentic Italian food and it is great quality! You can order online and pick up in person. I have had their sandwiches, lasagna, and chicken parmesan. Fast service and helpful team if you have questions!

Love this place, it's a must go to in Eagan. We come here every other week. My go to is the Pick 2, I go with a sandwich and salad comes out to about $10. Love seeing the same people working there, shows continuity and people like working there cuz I've always gotten good service. I've had Briannos Italian which is the only sandwich I need in my life but I've also had the sausage, chicken parmigiana and roast beef. Can't go wrong but get the Italian first time you go. Also we come for the pizza, my wife and I split a medium Rebel Cow and that is filling. Hot pastas are very rich and have great flavor. Treat yourself and go to Brianno's Deli

COVID Update-Brianno's is a vital and necessary restaurant in Eagan, an independently owned eatery. My hat is off to the staff for putting in extra effort during uncertain and stressful times. I didn't think they could be any friendlier, but they've upped the caring quotient and customers feel even more welcome when visiting. I loved Brianno's before, but my gratitude is boundless now. Hint: If you're carb loading, you can't beat their Chicken Cavatappi or Pepper Jack Mac and Cheese. YUM.

Best Italian deli ever Good food staff and prices what more can you ask for! Go there they will not disappoint!

Pizza was awesome! Great crust, slightly spicy sauce, and perfect amount of melty cheese. So good!

Take out. Perfect thin crust pizza. Got the Rebel Cow. Fabulous sauce, sweet onions, fresh mushrooms, chunky, delicious, sausage, and cooked perfectly. We got a medium, and there was nothing left. Oh darn, I was too full to eat my salad.

Great Italian prepared food, awesome to-order pizza and daily deli/market specials. We always get a loaf of bread and their vinaigrette to dip - it's awesome!

This is great Italian deli. Food is phenomenal, the staff couldn't be friendlier and the selection of different Italian foods and beverages is great. The only problems are the prices and portion sizes. You better bring lots of cash - because everything is very pricey. Plus, the portion amounts for the hot (non pizza) items are a bit chintzy. I know inflation is tough on all restaurants so some of the prize and portions issues are understandable - but even when inflation was lower they were expensive.

We ordered salad, Brianno's special pizza and a variety of desserts. Loved everything. Salad was fresh, pizza was delicious and the desserts were amazing. Out of the way location but will definitely come again.

A rare gem, I just wish this was in Texas by me, in Minnesota seeing family, looked for Italian Deli's and jumped in, hands down one of the best Italian sandwiches I've had, great service friendly and patient, if I get up here again it will always be on the schedule.

Fantastic service and always good food! We like to get half baked pizzas and love their deli!

First visit and we weren't sure what to expect. Eat in? Take out only? Yes, there were 3 small tables of 2, so I suppose you can comfortably eat in, but we opted for a pizza to go. It was early in the day, waited 20 minutes, and it was ready. The place smelled great, and the pizza did not disappoint. Great cheeses, thin crust and flavorful sauce. The only odd thing was they don't use pizza boxes. They bagged it up and off we went. That was really disappointing, but better for the environment. If only it didn't make transport treacherous. Can't wait to try other things on the menu!

We love Brianno's. The pizza is the best. Whenever we have out of towners, we give them Brianno's and they always request it again the next time. The owners are friendly and funny. I really wish they had a sit down with bar too. We lost the Old Chicago, which then became the New Bohemia. Brianno's is better then either of them. Owners, you should buy the old New Bohemia spot in Town Centre!
