My last memory of Stuft Pizza is trauma bonded with my middle school tackle football career. We'd come here after practices often, and it was a clear indicator that I had made it through another day in hell.
Middle school pop warner football was the most depressed I've been in my entire life. They ran the El Segundo Eagles like they were trying to win a super bowl, and I was just trying to have fun and make friends. The anxiety and dread of sitting in school knowing I had a week of practices looming over my head is a feeling I struggle to put into words. I hate putting myself back in that headspace. I'm having war flashbacks even typing this out... They made me play O-line smh.
Yesterday (18 years later), my brother and I walked into Stuft Pizza to pick up some pizzas for his son's 1st birthday party. Time flies.
Right when we walked in, I was hit with a wave of nostalgia as the interior is nearly the exact same. It’s nice when everything in your life can change, but the Stuft Pizzas of the world don’t. It really had me reflecting on my journey through life.
After the nostalgia wore off, the smells of fresh pies being developed began to dominate my senses. I forgot how good this pizza was. It has a crusty undercarriage and ample sauce to cheese ratio, which is my preferred slice. Y'all can keep the $30 Slice and Pint pie and the flop it comes with. I’m a Stuft Pizza guy through and through!
Thank you Stuft, for seeing me at my best and my worst without judgement.

Food was good and came out fast but it is very flow and the dining room is very sad

Awesome food, friendly staff, generous sitting, good price, and at a nice part of town. A family run business that really cares about the customers. Highly recommended.

Haven't lived in the area for 30+ years, and has been about 20 since eating there. Pizza and calzon came out hot and tasty just like we recalled. The lady who took our order has been there for more than 20 years. Will go back again when we're in the area.

FYI apparently stuffing the crust is not the reason this place is called Stuft I love me some pizza , usually any kind of pizza. what I don’t love is STUFT pizza. The crust not only had NO stuffing. It had zero flavor Zilch ! No butter No color No seasoning No cheese
Usually it’s about the toppings but this time I really wanted to try a cheesy this k crunchy crust And this was none of that fake reviews?
Now the service , I went out of my way to call and verify if only specific pizzas had cheese stuffing because the online menu only showed a few and they were all xlarg
After I asked about the stuffed crust the girl says well, uh, it is the name of our restraint So a couple of days later I was still urled for my $30 pepperonis and canned pineapples so I called em up to let them know how confusing that was
Eventually, I got the manager (supposedly) she already knows my order? Phone number I suppose I tried to tell me that she was the little sassy girl who took my order first off. Then get this She says I’m the only since 1984 when the establishment opened that has ever complained about a place called stuff doesn’t have stuffed pizza But when you ask if your pizza will be stuffed you’re told ITS OUR NAME, duh?
Hahaha Lesson NOT learned I still don’t get it? 😂

Would rate it lower but I don’t want to trash a local restaurant too bad. The pizza here is mostly bread…like 80% bread and some light toppings. Won’t be back personally for pizza but maybe will try wings or something

No overhead lighting, soda machine broken, restroom needs refurbishing. Not a very inviting welcoming eatery.The calzone was huge and very reasonably priced.I stopped in due to a restroom urgency. I bought a xalzone as a "thank you" for mainly using the restroom.
Our family has enjoyed Stuft pizza for 30 years through many celebrations and casual dinners. This place is one of the jewels of El Segundo. The pizza is consistently great, service is consistently reliable, and Umberto is the best and nicest delivery person ever!
