Amazing pizza. Great prices. Everything here is excellent, including the tiramisu. Admittedly, I haven't had every single type of pizza they offer, but I have had most & every one is great. Since they offer by the slice options (until sold out, so get there before dinner rush for better selection), mix & match to get some of the best New York style in town. Try the special slices, always good.I'd say their only rival in San Diego, for New York Pizza, is Bronx Pizza in Hillcrest.Update April 2024: Everything is consistently excellent still.Features: None

Love the pizza here! I'm especially obsessed with the pepperoni and the sauce. I love all pizzas and when I'm craving thin crust pizzas this is my go to.Vegetarian options: You can specifically ask them to do vegetarian with no issue!

Best pizza in Tierrasanta hands down. If ordering during their busy times, I usually expect some kind of delay or hour+ time but it's just due to how busy they are and the limited kitchen size. The crew is always working so hard and earnestly, the pizza is so good, I honestly don't mind the wait.

Just got my first pizza from here, and unfortunately I got food poisoning. The pizza also wasn't very flavorful, including the pepperoni and parmesan.

By far the best pizza in San Diego and the Tiramisu is seriously off the charts.

Finally! The pizza place I've been yearning for since I left the east coast. The sauce, the taste of the crust, the toppings, the cheese to sauce ratio, all done well. I got the truffle pizza which was excellent and the pepperoni which was nostalgic. It's close your eyes good and eat it slow type of pizza! The employees were kind and this seems like an establishment that has great customer service. I live in OB but will frequent and support this business often. Excited to have found it! Thanks for putting such passion into your pizza!

This is the best nyc style pizza in sd. The Marg and Cheese are 10/10. The bread is quality and the ingredients always fresh.

The name is apt. These guys are the gold standard for pizza. Every bit as good as the big names like Luigi, Regents, Tribute but cheaper than most of them. Incredible quality, nice crispy undercarriage, and blistery crusts.As Northeast transplant, I've been frustrated with the quality of neighnorhood pizza places here in SD for a decade. This is some truly excellent and high quality pizza that could survive in Boston or NYC.

Super busy, so you may have a bit of a wait. But super friendly staff and delicious pizza make up for it. Try the tiramisu too!

Awesome atmosphere, friendly and patient staff, and amazing pizza and tiramisu. Happy to have stopped in to try!

This place is SO freaking good!! We've had the Carnivore, Truffle and Margarita and they all are out of this world. We always get the cheesy bread as well and I don't normally enjoy cheesy bread, but theirs is crazy good. We seriously crave their pizza all the time! Last week they were closed for the holidays so it's been too long since I've had my fix ??. I'm just sitting here waiting until 4pm to order and thought I'd write a quick review ??

The pizza here is delicious! The pizzas only come in one size so plan on sharing. The delux white pizza is so unique and the flavors work so well together.We are so happy to have this place in our neighborhood! Service is always great and the pizza quality is consistent.

I don't mind driving 20 miles for this pie. I rarely add toppings, but seeing that their cheese pie was my favorite in SD, I gave it a shot and everyone loved it. The Tiramisu is also fantastic
