“Great! I love this place. So good.“

“Always have 2 slices 1 is never enough. It’s that good..“

“I ate at Pazzo on Wednesday and had a great experience. The restaurant is take out only. I ordered at the restaurant instead of on the phone. The staff were super friendly and helpful with recommendations. The order took about 20 minutes and we had a drink outside while waiting. I HIGHLY recommend the shrimp and grits. Over anything else on the menu! And I was told the gnocchi was amazing too iAnd of course the pizza is awesome!“

“Elevated beer and pizza, and pinball to boot. Owners and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Their pizza menu is solid, and they’re good with swapping out ingredients for vegans, etc.“

“Tried Pizza Guys for the first time today and it was so good! Definitely ordering again soon. 🍕🔥“

“New York Pizza in Palo Alto is, in my opinion, the best pizza in the Bay Area. The taste of their pizzas is absolutely delightful, and the ingredients are fresh and high-quality. The staff is just amazing, so attentive, friendly, and always ready to serve and make sure you’re satisfied. I love dining in, but their delivery service is also fantastic. It’s a treat every single time! Thank you for everything!“

“Best pizza in the Bay Area!“

“Great first time experience at Pizza Guys in San Carlos! I ordered a pizza over the phone for pick up. Friendly and quick service. When I arrived, my jaw nearly dropped when they took $7 off my order and gave me a free container of ice cream! AND the pizza was delicious! THANK YOU!“

“pizza is great highly recommend the margaritas pizza“

“One of the best up-and-coming pizzas in the bay. Plain cheese has always been great and I recently got the "Pub Grub" pizza lab special that had buffalo cauliflower and a house made ranch sauce, probably the best speciality pizza I've ever had.“

“I had a really enjoyable experience at State of Mind Public House and Pizzeria. The atmosphere was lively but still comfortable, making it a great place to sit down and relax with a meal. The pizza was fresh, well-made, and full of flavor, with a crust that stood out in particular. The drinks were also well prepared and paired nicely with the food. The staff was friendly and kept everything running smoothly, which made the visit even more enjoyable.“

“My family and I were searching for a great pizza spot near San Carlos and stumbled upon Impasto through Google Maps. I managed to snag a reservation just an hour beforehand, and I’m so glad I did because there were only two slots left. Shortly after we arrived, the place packed out—in the best way possible.

The interior is absolutely beautiful. My wife and I couldn't stop admiring the color palette and how well the entire design came together. Even the small details, like the flower vases on the tables, were incredibly thoughtful.

Our server, Jackson, was fantastic. He gave us great recommendations and, refreshingly, didn't make us feel uncomfortable when we decided to skip drinks that night—something that happens way too often at other places.

Every single thing we ordered was incredible, from the pizza and the roasted beet salad to the veal cannelloni special and tiramisu.

My only minor hurdle was the initial confusion with parking, but the hostess kindly cleared that up for us so we know exactly where to go on our next visit. We will definitely be back!“

“pizzas muy ricas y saludables buen servicio“

“Amazing place, such a quirky and original establishment.
Food was fantastic as well, the service was amazing. Every employee was so pleasant. Especially once they discovered we were from another state.
Each piece of art had its own story. (Which had a book to explain each piece)
Came highly recommended, & I would have to agree.“

“The pizzas were massive and tasty. We liked these way more than Dopio pizza in downtown Mountain View: not too thin, not too thick, nice crunch. The only drawback was that they have exactly 3 or 4 chairs at the bar looking out the window for dine-in. The staff was super accommodating. We ordered pizza not on the menu, and they responded, sure, no problem. The half BBQ chicken - half margherita large pizza was too much for 3 people. We had 2-3 slides left over. The jalapenos cheese sticks were a mini pizza with cheese and jalapenos: super spicy 🔥🥵 We concluded that 1 large pizza without the bread sticks would be perfect amount for 3 people.“

“I had an amazing experience at Italico Restaurant! The food was fresh and flavorful, especially the truffle pasta and wood-fired pizza. The service was top-notch, and the atmosphere was cozy yet modern. I’ll definitely be back to enjoy more of their delicious dishes. Highly recommend!“

“Pizza calzone was amazing! The desserts were so delicious 😋.“

“In truth, I recommend Jessica --the front desk-- who makes sure that I receive extra marinara as well as extra sauce Anglaise... for takeout. Until, we talked, I stopped ordering from Terun on principle. I was a frequent client. Takeout customers must be honored for requests that are gladly honored when in the dining room. Takeout customers should be thanked for not causing dirty tablecloths and dishes -- and LOYALTY. Jessica reinstated that loyalty. I truly hope that the owners appreciate her. Without extra sauces the food is too dry. With it, delicious. The prices honor extra sauces and more!“

“the bomb. probably better than old school BLONDIES WHICH I SAW NOW LOCATED S.F. WESTFIELD MALL“

“This is the best Mountain Mikes in all the Bay Area, and I have been to a lot of them. Staff are super nice, they manage the lunch buffet very well, and it's clean. Their pizza tastes really good and they always put fresh ones out for the buffet.“

“Love the pizza there, we ordered white pie and red pie. Both are great taste“

“YES, Best pizza 🍕 ever !!!“

“Tried Curry Pizza House in Kent, WA for the first time. Great flavors! Wonderful wings, Desi bread, and pizza! The mango lassis are yummy. Definitely check it out!“

“Great pizza fast delivery very pleasant people Taking my order making sure everything was perfect. Delivery person was super nice and very polite. I would highly suggest this establishment for any and all future orders. Give them a try you won't be disappointed“

“Excellent pizza and service is great!“

“Amazing burgers and pizza! Perfect location for parties and gatherings or just dinner with family and friends! Friendly staff!“

“Cafe Zoë is an incredible little community space that serves delicious beverages, food and entertainment. Kathleen, Zoë and the staff are truly amazing and provide great service. They are community minded and love how they support the arts as well.“

“it was very good 👍 my new favorite place for pie“

“Was excited to try Tony Gemignani’s “Apricot Fields” slice (exclusive to Mountain View), and he did not disappoint. Chalk up another winner that went great with our Cal-Italia, and the Wise Guy. A little Hot Honey and extra fig preserve allowed us to add a custom touch as each desired. Can’t even complain about the wait for a closer Slice House, because I know Tony Respects the Craft too much to rush any location before they are up to the highest standards. Bravo!“

“Service was good and the pizza was good.“

“They used a third party for delivery, which ended up being awful, but the customer service provided to resolve the issue was on point. The manager went above and beyond to correct the issue and did it as fast as possible. Super grateful for her efforts!“

“The pizza was great, and I was happy they had gluten free crust (not sure if it’s celiac though). It wasn’t crowded at all, and I was happy to have this option right next to zareen’s so my friend and I could get what we wanted.

The pepperoni in particular was amazing.

It did take 15 minutes or so for the pizza to be done, so just order ahead or stroll while you wait.

I also wish it were slightly cheaper, but I realize that the gf crusts adds a bit. Super grateful for the option though!

Overall a great pizza option, especially for gluten free.“

“A place that values quality and source of ingredients“

“Stopped by Round Table Pizza in Palo Alto and had a great experience. The customer service was excellent from start to finish. Sharma was friendly, welcoming, and made sure everything went smoothly. It's always nice when someone takes pride in providing great service.
Thanks again for the awesome experience—I definitely look forward to coming back!“

“Appetizers and dinner was great. So good to be able to eat outdoors.“

“Good pizza..“

“I had a very large order with unique instructions for a company request. And the person I took my order on the phone by the name of Unique was super helpful and very detail oriented to help with what I was asking for. Very pleased with their customer service, and as well at the time of pick up, the staff was very helpful with helping, carry the large order to my car, which just was a cherry on top to a great experience.“

“10/10 exterior decor. We love an icon.
Recommend painting the interior so I can feel like I’m actually at the round table with King Arthur. A little too millennial gray considering all the sick decor.
Bring back the rest of the personality baby!

Great service, great food.“

“5 STARS! No BS corporate Olive Garden here! Calzone's my fave. Few Italian spots make'm nowadays. Bread's pillow soft. Mushrooms & tomatoes retain a lotta H2O. I've had some watery ones from other restaurants that spilled out when cut open in the past. Theirs is legit. Customize your own, but the 1 on the menu's fabulous as is. They make their own herb focaccia! Ordering mouthwatering meatballs a la carte is a must! Pastas, paninis, open face, salads, rotisserie chx, ribs, draft beer, wine, delivery, takeout, etc. Perfect place to take your loved ones/friends who'd appreciate the art & hard work the staff serves up so quickly!“

“you gotta try the Sunday Special " Birria Pizza 🍕" Best in the bay area!“

“Delicioso todos. Really enjoyed service and the food.“

“The complementory bread and dip is really delicious. We also had Bruschetta which was also good. However, he pastas are quite mediocre. They're not bad by any means but I doubt I would order pasta again at this restaurant. I really enjoyed the service and vibe of the restaurant itself.“

“I’ve been eating Toto’s pizza since they where in Daly City and it’s still my favorite.“

“Very good pizza, thin crust for our taste. We shared a large pizza with 3 adults. We also shared a large Cesar's salad. Our son had the sliders and loved them. We enjoyed their drinks and a nice beer. Convenient location in San Carlos!“

“Their Hawaiian pizza is delicious.“

“On the way back for the morning, we stopped by Emmanuel’s Pizza and Bakery to get our lunch. This time, we bought a Large Pizza with 3 toppings ($32 inclusive of taxes) and we chose BBQ chicken, chorizo and mushroom which turned out to be very delicious. They were made-to-order and we waited for about 25 minutes for the pizza to be boxed up, fresh from the oven for us.

Back at our AirBnB, we found Emmanuel’s Pizza to be so delicious! Love the crust and the ingredients were also prepared separately. For instance, the BBQ chicken was so tender and flavourful. The portion and ingredients were also very generous – so much so that we could only eat 3 slices each and keep half the pizza for tomorrow’s breakfast. A really satisfying meal, reminding us that with the experience from Gianni’s and Emmanuel’s, USA does make excellent made-to-order pizzas...
