50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Imperial Beach

“I found the BEST pizza in San Diego. Crust was just right! Not too thick not too thin. The sauce was flavorful with the right amount of spices. My pizza was not greasy from the toppings. We ordered a Greek salad that was crisp and very fresh. The dressing was superb! What a tasty meal. I will be back!“

“Problem for the last couple of visits in the IB location, is the bottom of the crust on pizza and calzone have been really brown.To the point of black.hard to chew. I don’t mind paying money for good pizza, and it is good, but maybe clean the bottom of the brick oven.“

“Thank you so much for taking my order over the phone and delivering to my MIL so quickly!!! You are at the top of our Delivery list!!!“

“for s chilling Monday night“

“I DO recommend Pizza Port, however their pizza is not consistent. You can definitely tell if they are busy or not, the quality goes down. A few weeks ago the pizza was delicious, beautiful even (I wish I would have taken a picture) lol. Today, not so much , picture included. I will continue to eat here just hoping the pizza becomes more consistent“

“this place is 1 in a 100 I absolutely recommended this place“

“Great customer service I had the mobile app glitch called in and the manager Claudia helped me will definitely order again“

“If you are looking for a true Italian experience in San Diego, look no further than Vinarius! We worked with Giuseppe (owner) to host our wedding celebration here back in March, 2023. From the beginning, he was amazing to work with. Incredibly positive and accommodating from the start, we couldn’t have asked for more. The wedding ceremony was planned to be outside and of course, it rained that day. Guiseppe and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, allowed us to have the small ceremony inside the restaurant on short notice and made an incredible meal to follow. Our guests were blown away and we couldn’t have been happier. We recommend Vinarius to everyone we know and that is thanks to Giuseppe and his awesome staff. Grazie mille!“

“Best pizza in the valley!“

“Came to TNT on the recommendation of a local and holy f*** balls I was blown away. If I had the disposable income I’d buy a private jet and fly to San Diego to eat here once a week and fly home, my carbon foot print would look like a slice of their pizza and I would okay with it cause my belly and soul would be content. Every pizza I have after this will be a disappointment to me.“

“Usually like their pizzas. Seems like there is no much flavor like before. No taste of spices. But they are very quike and curtious“

“🍕🔥 Pizzería El Jefe 🔥🍕 Si te gusta la pizza con sabor de verdad, este lugar te va a encantar. Pizzería El Jefe es una pizzería mexicana con todo el vibe de Tijuana: desde que entras huele a buena pizza, el lugar es amplio, muy limpio y bien organizado. El servicio fue excelente, el cajero súper amable y atento, nos explicó todas las pizzas y se nota que conocen bien su producto. Probamos la pizza “Me gustan tus piñas” 🍍🔥 Adobada, con piña, jalapeños, cebolla roja y salsa poblana. La masa está increíble, doradita, crujiente y con sabor real a trigo, como hecha en casa. El queso se derrite perfecto y al morderla es una explosión de sabor. También pedimos “La Paisa” 🇲🇽🍕 Con chorizo, tocino, frijoles, jalapeños, bell pepper, cebolla, cilantro, salsa de tomate y hongos. Bien cargada, bien balanceada y con ese sabor mexicano que reconforta. Para cerrar, unas alitas chipotle mango 🍗🔥 Doraditas, jugosas y con la salsa en su punto. Pizza mexicana bien hecha, con identidad y mucho sabor. Definitivamente un lugar al que vamos a regresar. 💯“

“I went to have dinner with my family. we ordered the family deal which came with an appetizer a large salad a large Alfredo pasta to share and a large pizza we order half al pastor and half meat parade we were 5 and we all left full everything was delicious.Owner was veryhelpful and the food was great 👍we found our new spot“

“Great place, great food, service is excellent, everybody is having a good time and it shows, this place is a must in SD, whether you go as a couple or with friends, definitely recommended!!!“

“Their focaccia knots are the best everrrr! I would eat them 3x a day if I could :)“

“This is the best pizza in San Diego. Not only is the food unbelievably good, the service is truly impeccable. I had the pleasure of meeting the Senior GM of their San Diego locations and you can tell he has a passion for his work. Eating at prince street reminds me of going to DisneyLand - it’s a great time alone, or with friends and family & you’ll always remember your experience.“

“Went to this establishment yesterday, on the 21st of September, and ordered the Capone Pizza. Great food, even better service! Pizza was very flavorful and I was able to call ahead to order. Would recommend this place to anyone staying near the Gaslamp District, as it is nearby and they have generous portions. 5/5!“

“Absolutely love this place. been here multiple times always the best, a whole pie or a slice. happy. the sauce is so good it's like a sweet basil italian. it's thin and I normally like thicker crust but it is so good. a staple in my home minimum once a month“

“Wow. I'm so grateful for restaurants whose dedication shows in the quality of their food and drivers so dedicated to delivery.

Thank you driver! (She drove 30 min to deliver) God bless you so much! Thank you!

The food is amazing here! I ordered a small pizza, raviololis, and gyro combo- everything was perfect!

Fries perfectly seasoned, gyro just perfect with the cucumber sauce, pizza with tasty ingredients including artichoke hearts! 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋x♾️

I'm definitely eating again- likely next time eating in! I can't imagine the flavors when fresh out of the oven - many blessings to you and your restaurant! 😇🙏

“Not sure about the bad publicity that all seems to come about 5 months ago. I went here over a year ago. Was the best pizza I have had for 30 years. Yeah, I don't get out much. I was peddling my bicycle around and got lost. Was pretty damn hungry when I ordered. This is not a grab and go joint. You are not going to get your order in two minutes like 7-11 where they have a machine that can cook a frozen thing and call it pizza. The crust was greatest. The toppings not packed on like other places that think more stuff means better. I went outside to eat because I was sweaty and gamey. Went back in, gave a second tip and shook the owners hand.“

“The service was unbelievable! Lately, our family has not dined out due to many lackluster experiences. This was not the case this time. Wonderful staff, Ansel, especially. Delicious food and amazing city light night views. Take to ferry over for a nice little night with your family. We will be back!“

“Amazingly delicious! Can’t wait to go back! From Boston😎“

“Muy buena pizza y los ingredientes frescos, no tardaron ni 10 minutos en entregarme mi pizza, 100% recomendable…“

“Great Pizza, Nice New Decorations, lovely Crews and Service“

“Had lunch at this pizza place yesterday and it was a pretty decent experience. The pizza crust was thin and crispy, exactly how I like it, and the toppings tasted fresh. I tried the pepperoni and mushroom combo, and it was good, nothing mind-blowing but definitely satisfying. The staff were friendly enough, and my order came out quicker than I expected, which was nice. The inside of the restaurant was clean, though a bit small, so seating can get crowded during peak hours. Overall, I’d probably come back again if I’m in the area and craving pizza.“

“I first met Mario, the owner, when he was selling pizza outside the brewery I worked at many, many years ago. Followed him as he helped open The Friendly up the block, and finally I'm stoked he's brought his talent to Chula Vista, my hometown. The burgers are my favorite, consistent and great, my wife and I always share a side of fires, and they're fresh and plenty for two to share. Crispy and juicy burgers with fresh vegetables and made how you ask. The chopped beef sandwich is super good, and the pizza is true to its NY style. All affordable, all legit.“

“Fattys is awesome. I love the pizza, especially the sausage pizza. It’s so good. Never thought I would find a good tasting pizza that reminds me of my hometown in Chicago. It’s the closest I can find here…this is coming from a Chicago girl. Enjoy, and you’re welcome“

“Food is good and the service is great.“

“My son and I drive 27 miles (one way) to Rosa Giant Pizza in Chula Vista every Saturday for lunch, the food is really THAT good! We have been regular customers for more than two decades. The super sub sandwiches and pizza are the best in the County.“

“Just moved here to San Diego and came across this place.. I ordered just 1 slice of cheese pizza to try it out and let me tell you the pizza is sooo good!! The cheese pull 😍.. this is now my new go to spot for pizza..the staff is really nice.. I seen they have other Italian food as well, pasta, etc.. and I’m sure is really good too.. I definitely recommend trying this place out! 🥰“

“Amazing food and a testament to being a good citizen of our planet.“

“If you’re looking for authentic, high-quality Italian pizza in San Diego, Isola Pizza Bar absolutely delivers.

From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere struck the perfect balance between upscale and welcoming. The brick oven pizza is the real star with perfectly blistered crust, light and airy with just the right char, and topped with premium Italian ingredients that you can genuinely taste in every bite. The freshness of the mozzarella, the balance of the sauce, and the quality of the meats and olive oil make it clear this isn’t just pizza, it’s craftsmanship.

What truly elevated the experience, though, was the service. Our waitress was incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely friendly. She made thoughtful recommendations, checked in at just the right moments, and created an experience that felt personal without being intrusive. It’s rare to find service that complements great food so seamlessly.

This was one of those meals where everything just clicks—the food, the atmosphere, and the people. I would absolutely go back the next time I’m in San Diego. Highly recommend. 🍕🇮🇹“

“The pizza is amazing! Friendly service! I'm glad we ate here!“

“Everything we ordered was delicious“

“Where do I begin!? Bambino's deserves so much support from us in Chula Vista! Because Bambino's truly cares about their community! They generously donated to our local, essential workers during the pandemic...on numerous occasions. The owner Wally & son Louis are the kindest people and hold such high values on running their business. The customer service & food quality is unmatched! Bambino's provided us pizza at Mater Dei Catholic High School football games for the past 5 games!! We plan to continue the partnership as they are so accommodating & easy to work with! This family owned business is a total GEM. Please go support!“

“Friendly staff , good food and service“

“@paradisefamilypizza is where the homemade fresh tasty pizza made, They’re incredibly generous with their toppings, and you can truly taste the quality and the love in every bite.
What makes it even more special is that the owner personally makes your pizza with all the love and care
Highly recommend checking them out.“

“I would give it a 5 star but I just paid $25 for two hours of parking when they’re supposed to have their own parking lot. There was a sign that pointed to the left for Filippi’s parking …. Rip off. Don’t know what they’re trying to pull here.“

“Food and service was amazing“

“Haven’t eaten there in nearly 30 years but still the best pizza! I live in the Midwest now.“

“Had the Margherita pizza today and it was delish! Coworker really enjoyed the Philly Cheese steak sandwich. The crust on my pizza was thin and cooked perfectly. Every bite was amazing! Everything was so good! Highly recommend!!“

“The service provided was truly exceptional, making the dining experience enjoyable from start to finish. The staff members were attentive and courteous, ensuring every need was met with a smile. Furthermore, the pizza was absolutely delicious, boasting a perfect balance of flavors and textures. The crust was wonderfully crisp, complementing the high-quality toppings used throughout. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I look forward to returning.“

“This is the best deal in town!“

“Cheaper than dominoes but taste way better in my opinion. Youre not getting an authentic Italian or new york pizza eating experience here... but thats not with this place is. This is place is to get a great pizza at a great price. Worth every dollar. Especially good for birthday or office parties or whenever you just need good ol pizza in bulk.“

“I recently found this place in my neighborhood. It is now my go-to pizza place. Humble little pizza place that delivers high quality pizza made with fresh ingredients at a very reasonable price! Where else can you get a large pepperoni pizza for $8? Nowhere. I can honestly say that it's better than Domino's and Pizza Hut, definitely a step above. I also got to give them credit for being very reliable with their phone orders. I call it in... 10 minutes later - it's there waiting for me. Every time!“

“super Rica la pizza.. ahora es nuestro lugar favorito.“

“Super friendly, family-owned pizzeria with great service. I placed my order in advance, and it was ready right on time. The only downside for me was the crus, it had a slightly sweet, almost like cookie taste, which isn’t my preference. However, the tomato sauce was incredibly fresh and delicious. If I return, I’ll definitely try the regular crust to see if it has the same sweetness.“

“I loved this place!! Great service, friendly staff and yummy food. Good place to stop if a train is running late or you need a tasty affordable bite!!“

“Had a great meal. The Zuppa De Pesce. Very nice staff and good food. I would recommend if your down in Little Italy San Diego.“
