If you haven’t experienced Westside Pizza, are you even living? Because this place doesn’t just serve pizza — it delivers pure, cheesy, life-affirming joy in a box.

Let’s start with the food. The crust? Golden. Perfectly balanced between crispy and fluffy, like it was handcrafted by carb-loving angels. The sauce? Bright, rich, and bold — the kind that makes you pause mid-bite and just nod in silent respect. And the cheese? A glorious, stretchy masterpiece that deserves its own slow-motion entrance music. Every topping tastes outrageously fresh, piled high with generosity that feels almost rebellious in today’s world. Whether it’s a classic pepperoni, a fully-loaded specialty pie, or those dangerously addictive breadsticks, every single bite feels like it was made with intention and pride.

But the real secret ingredient at Westside Pizza isn’t just what comes out of the oven — it’s the owner.

The owner radiates the kind of warmth and dedication you don’t see often anymore. You can feel their passion the second you walk through the door. They don’t just run a pizza place; they cultivate a community. They greet customers like old friends, remember names, ask about your day, and somehow make you feel like you’re the most important person in the building — even during the dinner rush. That level of care seeps into everything: the perfectly timed orders, the upbeat energy of the staff.

It’s the rare combination of phenomenal food and a genuinely exceptional human being behind the counter that elevates Westside Pizza from “great local spot” to “legendary neighborhood institution.”

In a world of average takeout, Westside Pizza stands tall, proudly cheesy, and unapologetically excellent. Five stars aren’t enough. This place deserves fireworks.“

“I did not know i was missing one thing my whole life. Then I was handed this tasty pizza and that was the day. The day I almost ate a whole pizza. Realy good food and the worker are awsome. My first time their and it felt like it was the place to be everyweekend. Just go and get some pizza. You will see what I mean.“

“This is the best pizza my husband and I have ever had! It set the bar so high that we can’t go anywhere else. Every slice I’ve tried was delicious but the vodka is my go to. The crust is the perfect consistency and the sauce flavor and ratio is very well done. We get pizza at least every week now if not more!“

“Easily the best pizza in Chico. Can't beat buy one get one free!“

“Sitting outdoors is not quite my vibe even with the misters but I absolutely love their pizza, calzones and breadsticks. The only time I was disappointed was when I missed my drumsticks which they corrected at a later date. ? I just recently tried their hamburger pizza and it was absolutely delicious!“

“Terrific catering experience for my daughter's wedding. Pizza was delicious, wings were a big hit and the salads were amazing. Wedding went great and we had some left over for morning pizza. It was a beautiful day. Thank you for making it go so smoothly.“

“Fantastic pizza. They source most of their ingredients locally and most of it is organic. Very tasty and unique pies, and wonderful cheesecake. I'll be eating there again. I posted this review around 2 years ago.
We went there recently and were very disappointed. The amount of toppings on the pizza was far less than we were used to. This is the second time we've been in the past 2 months, and will probably be our last. I'm sad because formerly this was our absolute favorite pizza place; we were willing to spend $80 for a salad, pizza, and 2 drinks and a tip because the pizza was so good. The last time we went it just wasn't worth it. I've heard that there's a new owner, maybe that's the reason.“

“Papa Murphys located on Eaton Rd is by far the best location in town. I have tryed them all and I'll just say this women runs her business right. Always fresh never short on toppings. And great customer service. Always a great team working there. I drive all the way across town past 2 other locations to get my pizza from the Raton location.“

“3 of us dined in early Friday PM. 2 of us were new to the brand. 2 guys behind the counter were having fun and included us as they took our order and prep 👍
The whole process was smooth and quick....
Pizzas came out quickly - hot and eye appealing. Note: pizza maker was on his game and it was noticeable, he enjoyed what he was doing 👍
Note 2: the reason for the 4 stars (Food) had more to do with me not enjoying 100% of my selection (The Jasper). The spicy chicken was off tasting. A little like small frozen nuggets (of spicy something) than real chicken pieces.
However my 2 other diners loved their selections.
We will be back and I will try some different ingredients, next time...
Note to the Team: keep up the excellent guest interaction.... it will bring people back... Like Us 😃“

“Original East coasters here…….this was by far the closest thing to East coast pizza we have found! Excellent!“

“I haven't had Monstros in 15 years but man that crust and flavor took me back to the early 2000's. Same great pizza 9.2“

“Absolutely the best pizza in town. If you're opinion differs, your opinion is wrong. I don't care what your mom told you.My favorite is the Hawaiian with barbeque sauce and jalapeno and pepperoni. I've only seen it in there with the pepperoni twice. Next time I'm ordering a full one.It's a little pricey but i'd pay in blood if it were necessary.“

“Just had an amazing pizza from Mt. Mike's! 🍕 Seriously, the crust was perfectly crispy, and the toppings were so fresh. I could eat this every single day. Highly recommend checking them out if you're craving some delicious pizza. Definitely a new favorite spot for me! #PizzaLover #MtMikes“

“My favorite is the all meat stuffed crust pizza! They have a half price special going on today so I had to wait an extra few minutes for my pie today. But! Well worth the wait! Even though they were slammed, the girls there still made a bomb 💣 pie! And they were still the nicest people and welcomed every person that walked in the door. So great pie and awesome people that work there. Highly recommend! 👍😁“

“First time coming to this location and not only was the pizza every bit as good as downtown, but the service was above and beyond friendly and courteous to every single guest who came in while I was dining. I don’t leave a lot of reviews, but the staff working today deserved it.“

“While visiting family in Chico, last night we had placed an order with another pizza company at 9pm for a late dinner. An hour later they told us they no longer had an available delivery driver and had to void our payment and cancel our order. Thinking it was to late to get a pizza anywhere else... my family found the pizza guys. They took our order, just after 10 pm and had it delivered to our home very quickly. The pizza was fresh & hot and tasted good and we really liked the cheesy bread sticks. From now on, when ordering pizza for delivery... we know The Pizza Guys will come through. Very happy with the service. Thanks Pizza Guys!“

“we booked the tackle box for our work holiday party and it delivered big time. Our theme was cowboy christmas and the venue was perfect, they even had the DJ cowboy that night which was absolutely perfect. The staff were all great and definitely went the extra mile. All the food came out on time and everyone was happy with the choices. Also a big shout out to the bartender who kept 60 plus guests well hydrated and happy!“

“The young gal that works the cash register in the front who’s there usually 5-6 days a week is awesome. She’s always got a smile on her face. It’s always a pleasure to see her and their Pizza at that location is amazing. It’s always hot. It’s always fresh and it always taste great.
I can’t complain.“

“I've eaten here twice now and it's been so good each time.“

“It's Quick and Easy . No bs just straight to the point of getting you , your order . Not much personality amongst here at this location. But if your in a hurry or just want affordable pizza good place to go .

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“My family and I had a great dinner at Round Table Pizza. My daughter and nieces played all of the working games, I may or may not have thrown down on a claw machine or two also! They were very busy but hustling! Food was the usual excellent fare! I miss the days of physical tokens and tickets but maybe I'm just getting old...“

“That Andrew fellow in the kitchen makes an excellent pizza pie.“

“I had a fantastic experience at Round Table Pizza! The pizza was fresh, delicious, and perfectly cooked, but what really stood out was the salad bar—absolutely excellent. Everything was crisp, clean, and well-stocked with a great variety of toppings and dressings. The staff was friendly and the restaurant was clean and inviting. I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“The worker there was excellent! The sandwich was perfect! Will be going back“

“I had a great experience. Went in and KK had great customer service she kindly explained that you guys do not give out paper plates anymore in a manner where I wasn't even upset about it and even offered to help me carry my pizzas out to my car for me. I declined but that was very great service will come back for KK service“

“Finally tried Papa Murphy's with a 50% off coupon, thought what the heck. So glad I did! The large half veggie/half meat pizza was ENORMOUS- it was bigger than the large pizza stone we have. The selection and flavor of toppings was outstanding, and the greens in my salad were fresh and crisp (not a single yucky, wilted piece of lettuce throughout). Everything was fresh, and the crust baked up just right (not too crispy and easy to bite into).“

“I ordered two large pizzas and twists. One pizza had the wrong topping. The delivery driver called the store and Eric the manager was quick to solve the problem. I would recommend them. The food is good and the customer service is better.“
