8 Best Pizza Restaurants in Monterey

“Awesomeness overload great pies“

“We always have a pizza at Gianni's whenever we're in town! Love the veggie pizza and breadsticks😍“

“We have been going to Heirloom Pizza a few times a year for a while now and have always enjoyed great food and good service. This was until last night. The food was still delicious and the server was good. That was the limit of a good experience. The hostess had a look that we were bothering her by wanting to eat there. We arrived about 7pm and they were busy, but it only took about 10 minutes to be seated. We ordered fairly quickly and then waited for over 50 minutes to have an appetizer to reach our table and another 25 minutes for our main dish. By the time we received our appetizer the restaurant had only 5-6 tables with people still sitting. We understand that it takes a little longer for a deep dish pizza, but well over an hour in unacceptable. In the 50 minutes we saw no less than a dozen or so orders go out the door for pickup orders. I understand they sell pizza and there is likely a large amount of business that doesn't come an stay to eat, but we felt forgotten. If we choose to go back, maybe we should order before arriving.“

“I love their Combo pizza. 🍕 Great food and service. Keith is the best.“

“I stopped in around 9 PM and had a great experience. The owner was professional, and they honored the Entertainment coupon without any issues. I loved the atmosphere; it’s a perfect mix of pizza parlor and sports bar. It was clean, comfortable, and ideal for hanging out with friends, catching a game, and enjoying a drink. The separate 21+ bar area was a nice touch, and they even had a play area for kids. Of all the Mountain Mike’s I’ve visited, this location stood out as one of the best. Five stars!“

“Best pizza we’ve had hands down. Family owned, cooked fresh, and it just hits better than anything. We make a point to come here when we’re in Monterey and I’d encourage everyone to do the same!!!“

“MidiCi is absolutely fantastic. We got two pizzas and the meatball appetizer. Everything was great. The only reason we didn't finish the pizzas there was because we didn't want to look like pigs. You will not be disappointed coming here!“

“I always love stopping at California Pizza Kitchen in Monterey whenever I’m in the area. Their Hawaiian pizza is absolutely amazing—the crust is perfect, and the ingredients are always fresh and delicious. They also have a wide selection of drinks, and their pastas and salads are just as incredible.

One of my favorite things is their lunch special—pizza and a salad combo. It’s such a great deal and never disappoints. The service is truly wonderful; everyone is so friendly and welcoming. Daniella, Amelia, and the busser Juan are absolutely amazing and always make you feel right at home.

I would highly recommend California Pizza Kitchen in Monterey to anyone looking for great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere. 🍕✨“
