47 Best Pizza Restaurants near Aptos

“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.“

“Pizza My Heart in Aptos is a great spot with consistently fresh ingredients and delicious pizza. The staff is kind, hardworking, and welcoming, and the manager runs the restaurant with professionalism and care. The space is always incredibly clean and has a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes you want to come back. They also provide educational opportunities (field trips) for our students. I love how they are involved in our community!“

“I would recommend their deep dish pizza. The sauce has a lot of flavor.“

“We ordered a takeout pizza 20 minutes before closing as we were driving into Aptos. The staff was very accommodating and said they would be there when we were to arrive in 25 minutes. They had the pizza ready and it was very good. Great job Pizza 1 Aptos!“

“Pizza is very good. Friendly people work their. Staff is very good and help you rite away. Price is good and lot of space. Love to visit again“

“Churchills is amazing.“

“We go once or twice a month, very happy with their pizza and salads. The music is good, but my complaint is the video machines play music all the time and it creates dissidence with their own music. I'd up my Atmosphere rating if they could turn off (or down) the video machines.“

“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.“

“I might recommend this place for its pies & pastries, but not their coffee offerings. I guess they don’t get many requests for mochas because what I got was mostly milk with a splash of coffee & zero chocolate. Getting it iced costs another 50¢, which I’ve never seen before. They really don’t promote their coffee beverages, so…. Hopefully your experience will be better.“

“First time trying this place and we absolutely LOVED it! It was amazing. The food was great, atmosphere was also really good. Our waitress was so friendly. I think her name was Eleanor, not 100% sure! Will definitely be coming back. We really enjoyed how the food didn’t come out so quickly. There was time to eat our appetizer and then ease into dinner.“

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

“my first time here, so so delicious 😋“

“This is hands down the best vegetarian pizza I’ve ever had. Yes Pizza my Heart is great but Village Host has bubbly crunchy crust and the pieces are weighed down and soggy like PMH. The bottom is still hard holding up the Vege covered pizza! I’m obsessed w them. Little pricey but worth it as a treat. Cheese is great too! Always polite and cool people working too. More people need to know about them!“

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

“My wife and I had a great time. The pizza was awesome! Highly recommend 🍕“

“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!“

“The food was fantastic and the service was on point!“

“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

Thank you Bookie’s! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time.“

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

“I dropped in during their soft pre-opening to get a pizza to go. Very tasty 'seasonable vegetable', I'm looking forward to trying some others.

update, been back now that they are in full operation.... had their Pepperoni, it was really really good.“

“Great tasting dough! Fake characters to get to the 25 requirement“

“First time there. By far the best pizza I’ve had in a long time. I highly recommend it.“

“Love the fish and chips along with a new favorite… chicken pozole soup. Need some radish and cabbage to top it off!“

“Sooo disappointed! Highly recommended! We purchased to go an extra large combination When we got home and opened the box: Totally dry and overcooked I would have liked to send them a message - rather than - Facebook. Not an option. Lynne“

“Bingo was so fun! Fabulous pizza, dessert was yummy. Everybody who works there is very friendly, the entire establishment is inviting.😍“

“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!“

“I have been eating pizza here for over 30 years ever since high school. It’s cheap pizza so don’t expect some fancy cuisine. But I simply cannot live without it!

Wish they had more slice options and updated their website menu. But I’ll never stop coming here. Even when I moved out of state I would always come back and get Pizza Mia!“

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

“I don’t like there service.“

“I come get a slice here often. It’s unfortunate that the price has gone up so much in recent years but I guess that’s true of most places. When slices were $1.50 it was a great deal. Now it’s just about average. The pizza isn’t the best, but it’s consistent and it will satisfy that craving you have for a slice. I like that you can get just a slice or two if you want. The dining area is usually quiet, with plenty of seating for just yourself or you and a couple friends. They have some games for the kids. I like that you get the sweet smell of the breads being baked at the panaderia next door. Parking is usually no problem. The staff is friendly.“

“Love their pizzas!! A very nice assortment. 😋“

“We order many pizza's every year for our daughter's birthday parties we have at the park down the street. This place is amazing and the service is always awesome! I also enjoy supporting a local business!“

“My new go to when I'm craving good pizza! I was recommended here by my sister & it was date night so I was excited to try Pleasure Pizza. My husband & I got two different slices & they were so delicious! We even got to meet the owners Sol , super friendly dude & his lovely wife Erica. The entire staff was so friendly & welcoming , this place really gives off a down to earth vibe ! It's conveniently located near shops where you can walk around which makes a romantic night. We really enjoyed the food here & will try different items next time !“

“We took a chance and ordered from Piara because the Round Table just down a few stores wanted over 60$ for two pizzas, so we got great deal at Piara and the lady was super nice, and threw in some bread sticks. The pizza turned out to be hella bomb, delicious. We were very impressed and will definitely go back for more!!! Loved it!!!!“

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

“Wow what an adorable little gem! I ordered the Jalapeno Cheddar Breakfast Bagel and omg, this just might have been the best bagel I've ever had. I've had Jersey & NY bagels but this really stood out. It was so incredibly chewy and soft in the middle and perfectly crisp on the outside. The flavor of the melted cheddar, pops of jalapeno and a subtle tang from the sourdough were incredible. The staff were very friendly & my food came out rather fast given the crowd. Couldn't recommend this place enough if you're in the area!“

“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!“

“Pizza was fantastic, service not so much. Could use a good cleaning.“

“Awesome people and pizza 😍“

“Been going here since I was little. I love the pizza 🍕“

“The food was delicious! I couldn't stop eating. Had the shortrib ravioli - amazing. It was our first time eating there. We live near La Placa Bakery in Ben Lomond and a friend recommended that we try the food at Bedda Mia. Well worth the trip.“

“this is a must stop when I'm in Santa Cruz I love the pizza here“

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

“Champagne AND spaghetti?! I am so happy you can order Caruso's at Vin Vivant. A match made in Heaven!

The Caruso family is so nice and the food is just delicious, pure comfort food. The Gnocchi Al Forno is the best gnocchi I've ever had. Pillowy gnocchi in a hearty, garlicky marinara. It's like eating a WARM HUG.

I also love the Fettuccine Vodka and Chicken Parmesan. The complimentary bread with roasted garlic oil is such a nice gift.“

“food, fantastic, service, fantastic, quality, fantastic, you need to experience this place to truly understand how great this place is. thanks Alfredo!!!!“

“It was delivered and I was just a touch disappointed.

I love Mountain Mike's and their toppings here were a bit dry.

I think next time I need to ask for a bit more sauce and toppings.

Just disappointed.“

“I greatly appreciate the staff's courtesy in making a call when I inadvertently ordered two items, as it is indeed one order. They were kind enough to clarify this matter with me, and my experience feels like if any other place would have done so, they would not bother... on top of it all, I have had such a good experience there“
