41 Best Pizza Restaurants near Aptos

“Fourth time here and still left impressed. Pizza, gnocchi, ragu, and sole dishes were fantastic. Didn leave room for desert but tried the strawberry and cream and lemon curd, anyway. Glad we did. Drinks were great too. Nice enough for a date night. Casual enough to be a great neighborhood hang. 10/10.“

“This is MY go-to pizzeria. I like Pizza My Heart & I like Mountain Mike's & I like the other chains, but this one is good all the time, & it's right here in Aptos & it's super good. I like it very much. It's MY favorite.“

“I ordered the vegan mendocino. You can't order it by the slice, you have to pay for the whole pie. It only took about 10-15 minutes for them to make. Although, it was kinda pricey about $30 for a 12". It was super garlicky and delicious, the cheese had a nice flavor and texture, but I felt like it needed just a tad bit of salt. I really enjoyed the fresh tomato sauce and fresh basil on top. Anyway, I'm super stoked that there's vegan pizza available near my home. There's 2 more vegan pizzas, so I'll be back to try those too. Updated from previous review on 2025-01-09“

Pizza was very tasty and to our satisfaction. The place was very clean and the environment was nice with plenty of tables for inside dining. I highly recommend Mangiamo Pizza for your party or take out.“

“I've been eating pizza for decades, all over the country, I know a good pie when I eat one. This place is legit. The crust is just the right crisp, the slice holds shape and the toppings stay where you want them. These factors add up to a delicious and satisfying bite for bite experience. The combination pizza is oof the charts. The online ordering process is streamlined and intuitive. The pizzas are always ready when they say they are and the staff take pride in their cooking. Order up, my friend. Choose your toppings wisely and walk away a winner.“

“Churchills is amazing.“

“Great food and coffee and my wife and I will be back again and again.“

“Love that we can grab pizza and snacks all in one place, delicious!“

“Really solid pizza. It was overall a great vibe, with a nice outdoor area. I had heard a lot of great things about Buzzo's before finally getting an opportunity to eat here, so was really hopeful. Definitely see why people like it! The crust is damn near perfect, and the arancini was wonderful.

The better pizza was definitely the margherita. I had heard a lot about the potato pizza, but to me it just didn't really seem to work; there were so many ingredients and it just didn't meld well to me.

Neither pizza had the marbling on the cheese I was hoping for, but definitely overall a really solid experience! Would come back for sure!“

“Best pizza in the county. Crispy bottom, lot of topping, excellent dough, Freindly staff and proud chef. They have hot off the grill/baked sandwiches, wine, beer and soft drink and much more...Good pricing.

Parking: Free Parking in plaza

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access from sidewalk to main dining entrance.“

“my first time here, so so delicious 😋“

“The best pizza ever!! We always come here❤️👏🏻👍🏻“

“We recently had a birthday party for my son here. It went so smoothly. The staff was completely on top of our needs. They even stored our pizza and ice cream cake leftovers for us while we went next door for a movie! I highly recommend this restaurant not only for the stellar service, but the food is also incredible. Can't wait to come back for more!“

“Feels like Portland bottled up in a little pizza joint. The real star, whatever red sauce they use on the pepperoni pizza. Is that cheddar cheese they bake into the crust?

Perfect place to eat after a day at the beach, biking, walking, or if you’re looking for a quality detroit style.

We will definitely be returning and this place has made it onto our list of recommendations for our friends looking for a bite to eat.

Chipotle-Pineapple Cider is 10/10

“Here on a Tuesday with their “Cheesy Tuesdays” when a cheese slice is only $2.50!!!! In this economy? Beautiful! And it wasn’t just an average slice of pizza it was PERFECT. A little crunch, yummy dough, the perfect amount of cheese pull (not too much but enough). Top 5 pizzas I’ve ever eaten. Just beautiful.“

“Great food by a talented kitchen staff. We enjoyed every bite!“

“Engfers is the best Pizza in Santa Cruz - No question about it!!! Great staff as well. My partner is from Brooklyn, she knows pizza - she agrees, it's the best in town!“

“Best service and food in Santa Cruz county!!!!!!“

“I don’t like there service.“

“My husband and I love coming in for the lunch buffet. It's so delicious!“

“The food here makes my eyes roll back in my head and makes me moan while I eat it. It’s bonkers how good everything is. Bagels and pizza and seasonal items are off the charts. And the staff are lovely. Don’t hesitate! You will love it. The farmers market is a favorite of mine. Pizzas are off the hook too. And I love the golden milk from the coffee stand! The only complaint is I want them to be open longer!“

“What I best admired about Mountain Mike's Pizza is that it's where the video game room is located. It had one video arcade game machine that had all of these classic 1980s video games. Ones that aren't rated mature. Ones that have nothing to do with the Marvel and DC Comic book heroes.

Dietary restrictions: This place doesn't serve sugarless desserts. This place has to serve salt/sodium free salad dressings. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?“

“Awesome people and pizza 😍“

“I've been there at least 4 times. The ingredients are excellent. I had the zucchini, the mushroom and margherita pizza, the Parmigiana salad and the focaccia sandwich. Loved all! Place is super clean, atmosphere is pleasant. Not a real restaurant but a great place for a quick and savory bite with friends or co-workers.

Vegetarian options: several vegetarian pizzas and salads available as well as a focaccia sandwich.“

“I walked in, but needed to use the App to receive my Bday coupon. I set up the App, ordered my BBQ crustless pizza, then the employee confirmed my order was received. He made sure the order was correct, then he prepped my order. Very quick, and very tasty!“
