“Well prepared pizza with great fresh ingredients. The dough was just the right thickness, cheeses, sauces (garlic and pesto) were good quality, the ingredients were fresh and generous. Very friendly crew. In door dining clean and comfortable. Noisy fridge otherwise good. Parking very available and easy access from main roads (cabrillo hwy and san mateo rd). Wow what a blast - never thought i find pizza like this anymore in the bayarea. Thanks Pedro & crew!“

“I've craved a good NY style pizza for years here in Cali and recently had some when I was back in New England and was sad thinking it would take another year or so before I'd have some more but was SO happy to try some of this and it was SO good! It was perfectly crispy at the bottom and the sauce is exactly what I think of when I think of NY style pizza (went to college on Long Island so I really know what NY pizza is like lol). Even more amazing is they felt they over heated my slice so they didn't even try to give that to me and just apologized for it taking a bit longer but wanted to give me a good slice! Love that level of quality control ❤️ we WILL be back! I especially love that the prices are very reasonable for the bay area!

Update: we did come back and it's just as good, if not better than I remember! It's perfectly crispy, the sauce is exactly how I have tasted NY pizza while in NY for college, and my son ate almost a whole piece by himself, despite it being close to the size of his head 🤣 do yourself the favor and come have some fantastic pizza!“

“Solid pies. Among the best in HMB.“

“When I first moved to the coastside everyone told me to never order from Harbor..?? Welll the rebel that I am decided no one tells me what to do! I needed pizza and I do what I want!...Harbor Pizza is BOMB 🍕 💣💥

I've never been inside the actual restaurant so iono its probably chill.
The ONLY thing!!!! There delivery driver sucks!!! Be prepared.“

“like being in Italy. Fabulous food, excellent service. The atmosphere is so Italian you'll think that you are in Italia. Bravo.“

“Amazing place, the food Is delicious and excellent service!“

“Wow, what an amazing spot. Not only was the food amazing, but the vibe was extremely friendly and welcoming. I ordered a hawaiian and ottoman pizza and they were top notch. Crunchy crust with premium ingredients, everything was perfect.

I saw the table next to us full of regulars eating an amazing looking flat bread. I asked what it was… not only did they tell me it was lahmacun, but they insisted I eat of large piece from their plate. The owner gave me a fresh plate of tomatoes and onions and chili’s and taught me how to eat it. If you like lamb, this is THE dish to get. Simply amazing and nothing like I’ve ever had.

My family including 6 year old twins loved everything. I’ll definitely be coming back.“

“This has to be one of the best pizza spots in San Mateo. I never would have thought that butter chicken and pizza would work well together but I will happily stand corrected. The pizza was flavorful and made me want to go back for more. This business will see me again for SURE.“

“Best pizza in the Bay Area!“

“First time trying golden boy pizza and I gotta say; it was one of the best pizzas I ever had. The edges were crispy, the pizza itself was fluffy like a cloud, and the toppings delicious. Definitely coming back again.

Ordered build my own pizza :
Sausage,pepperoni, pesto sauce on top, mushroom, and raw garlic.“

“Love the pizza! We live in the East Bay but we stop by whenever we pass by San Mateo. We always get a Meat Lovers & the Chicken Pesto!“

“OMG, what a wonderful experience. Sam was really good behind the counter, and helped us to some amazing vegan options, such as the Vegan Sub with Meatballs marinara, and another Vegan Philly Steak Sub. Both just wow amazing with high quality vegan organic products (like the organic salad greens from Costco) and vegan meat and cheese from the Butchers Son. Absolutely wonderful!“

“A year ago I gave Aldo’s Pizza three stars. The food was fine, the effort was there, but the kitchen felt like it was holding back. Something was missing in the fundamentals. This time they got it right. Not by changing who they are, but by finally cooking with the confidence the craft requires.

The dough is the first sign of growth. Last year it tasted rushed. This time the crust has structure and character. You can feel the cold fermentation in the crumb: a gentle tang, open pockets, a chew that resists just enough before giving way. Someone in that kitchen now understands gluten development instead of fighting it. The underside has that even, mottled browning you only get when heat and hydration are in agreement.

The sauce is no longer timid. It has body now. You can taste the tomatoes rather than the memory of tomatoes. The salt is dialed in. The acidity is honest. Someone finally let the ingredients speak instead of burying them.

The cheese behaves properly. It pulls without drowning the slice and it browns in the right places. That means improved moisture control and a hotter deck. These are not small adjustments. They show intention. They show someone is paying attention to the science of pizza rather than just the motions.

The toppings are handled with discipline. Sausage tastes like it was cooked, rested, and added with judgment, not dumped on the way some places do when they forget that distribution matters. Vegetables hold their texture instead of collapsing. Pepperoni curls at the edges, which means someone understood how to use the oven’s heat gradient instead of fighting it.

Even the slices reheat well, which is the real test. Pizza that survives a second life is pizza that was built correctly.

Service is straightforward and human. They recognize returning customers. They listen. They move with the quiet urgency of people who want the food to reach you before it loses its edge.

This place has improved because they started respecting the craft. The kitchen feels tighter. The pies feel deliberate. Nothing tastes accidental anymore.

Five stars because they earned it. Not with flash, but with corrected technique, better ingredients, and the kind of steady work that turns an ordinary neighborhood shop into a place worth seeking out.“

“We door dashed to a local hotel, rec'd wrong pizza. I contact them, they fixed the mistake. I would use them again.“

“Excellent pizza! Had the Maui Zaui!! Highly recommend !!“

“Guys and gals, if this is a dream I don't wanna wake up! I'm at the Mountain Mike's partaking of their Buffet offer. It doesn't make it clear enough on their website but the Buffet Deal comes with a salad and a soda. And their pizza- oh, their pizza! Out of this world. I cannot recommend it highly enough.“

“We had never ordered from here but took a chance tonight. My husband had the Penne with Alfredo sauce, and I had the baked Penne with Marinara sauce. They were both amazingly delicious! The portions could have been a bit larger, but we weren't left hungry! We will order from here again! I can't rate the atmosphere since we ordered out.“

“We had an absolutely lovely experience here! Came for my boyfriend’s birthday, everyone was friendly and attentive. Fantastic high end ambience. The food was almost too beautiful to eat and every one of us thoroughly enjoyed our entrees. One of our guests said it was the best spaghetti he had ever had! The mushroom risotto was perfection. I had the Chilean sea bass and WOW! The salmon was also amazing. The other two guests had roasted chicken and hangar steak… I didn’t get to try them but they looked amazing and everyone cleaned their plate even though we were full lol! We will absolutely be back. Highly recommend!! 5 stars ⭐️“

““Pizza is more than just food; it is a universal language of happiness. From the moment its aroma fills the air, it awakens a deep sense of anticipation and comfort. The golden, crispy crust tells a story of perfect balance, while the rich tomato sauce carries a bold yet familiar warmth. Melted cheese flows like a masterpiece, embracing every topping and uniting them in flawless harmony. Each bite is an unforgettable journey — crunchy, soft, savory, and deeply satisfying. Pizza has the power to bring people together, turn ordinary moments into celebrations, and remind us that true joy can be found in the simplest, most delicious pleasures of life.”“
