50 Best Pizza Restaurants in San Jose

“amazing food !!! this is our new spot for pizza and wings !!!“

“Excellent pizza—easily some of the best in San Jose! The crust has that perfect crunch with a sourdough-like flavor. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients, from the handmade dough to the perfectly balanced sauce. It’s clear a lot of care goes into every pie. The vibe is relaxed and a little bar-like, but still clean and thoughtfully put together, making it a great spot to hang out with friends or grab a pickup order on the way home. Truly a gem in the San Jose pizza scene.“

“Great food. Steeler Nation!“

“Giving thanks for Cali Pizza. The paneer-pesto pizza is still my favorite—fresh, balanced, and perfectly crisp with paneer cooked just right.

In a time when so much has gone up 30%+, they’ve kept prices steady and quality high. No shortcuts, no smaller slices—just real ingredients and kind people. It’s the kind of integrity that reminds you what a local business can be.

Thank you for taking care of the community. Happy Thanksgiving, and keep doing what you do.

“I love this place. It's my family's favorite pizza place. All of their pizzas are so tasty and cooked to perfection. The owner who runs it s such a nice and sweet man. While it's mostly a take out place they do have a little area for seating. But the pizza and sides are so good they still taste fresh and yummy when taking them home.“

“I have been to Pizza Guys a few times and each time the service has been awesome. I have a food allergy and they are very careful to make sure my food is safe to eat. The pizza is yummy too!! It’s hard to find GF pizza and this is delicious!“

“Great food, fun ambiance! I’m impressed :)“

“The best in the whole world. Try it.“

“So Delicious! I will be coming back when going through San Jose.“

“Pizza was fantastic. Thick Detroit style. We tried the Detroit vs Everyone and the Margarita. Both were great, but the Margarita is always the first one to be finished. Pizza slices are big and filling. This place is definitely top 3 in San Jose“

“This is a special place, especially in this area. A refreshingly low-key, quasi-quirky, but mostly down-to-earth, welcoming vibe. People were so friendly with my young kids and also seemed to know many returning diners. My and my kids’ pasta dishes were absolutely delicious. One gave it a hearty two thumbs-up and I inhaled my entire warm, flavorful bowl of spaghetti. We will be back as soon as we can!“

“Been coming since i was a kid an that was years in the late 90's now i'm about to turn 29 in July, man those where the good ole days or memories in pizza heaven.“

“Bona Pizza Review – Large Combination Pizza

I recently ordered a large combination pizza from Bona Pizza, and I must say—it was an absolute delight from start to finish.

Pizza Appearance & Ingredients

As you can see in the photo, the pizza came out looking picture-perfect. It featured a generous amount of toppings, including:

Pepperoni Sausage Mushrooms Black olives Green bell peppers

Everything was evenly distributed, and nothing looked sparse or overly greasy. The crust had a beautiful golden-brown edge and was thin and crispy, offering the perfect base for the loaded toppings.

Taste & Quality

What stood out immediately was how fresh everything tasted. The crust was crisp but not overdone, and the cheese was perfectly melted with no excess oil pooling on top a rare and welcome touch. Each bite was a balance of flavors—the savory sausage and pepperoni paired wonderfully with the umami of mushrooms and the slight crunch from the bell peppers. The olives added a touch of saltiness that tied everything together beautifully.

Price & Service

The pizza was very reasonably priced, especially for the quality and portion size. It easily serves a group, and the value is unbeatable. The service was awesome prompt, friendly, and efficient. Despite being made fresh, the pizza was baked and ready in a flash, without compromising on quality.

Final Verdict:

Bona Pizza nailed it with this combination pizza. From the perfectly baked thin crust to the abundance of fresh toppings and great service, it was an all-around fantastic experience. If you’re in the mood for a classic, well-executed pizza with top-notch ingredients and no greasy mess, this is the place to go.“

“Great service and Pizza. Every time I have called, service is always friendly and free delivery over $15 and pizza is great! I was told it would take about 35min for delivery but i almost think they were faster than that! I would definitely recommend over more expensive pizza places. Thank you for you great prices and great pizza!“

“Great pizza and the place itself is quite nice. The service is alright, although it kinda confused me at first. The place is quite spacious and has sort of those more vintage pizza place vibes, but is a little dim. PIzza's good, kids loved it.“

“the best pizza in San Jose. lots of toppings that others do not have like fresh baby spinach,artichoke hearts,feta cheese,sun dried tomatoes. and thier crust is great! not greasy and not too thin or thick. the owners/operators are really nice people and delivery always comes early. give them a try!“

“The minute we tried Bossman's pizza a few months ago, we were hooked! Got takeout and delivery many times from this place. The pizza is always on point, perfect crust and generous toppings. Have not had a chance to dine in due to COVID-19 but we look forward to visiting in person soon.“

“Pretty chill place we go there for family birthdays every year“

“meatball pizza 🍕 no crap on tap!“

“Best New York Style Pizza in Berkeley“

“It's such a great place to get food, drinks, and catch games or a fight on TV. The people that work there are very nice and there are outlets to plug in electronics, great wifi, and a sense of privacy if you want it. Overall clean restrooms, and great service! I give them an A+!“

“great pizza love it“

“Hot. Fresh. Crispy. Tasty. Mmm mm m 🍕“

“So my son wanted to try the Pizza Skulls because he saw a video on social media. We ordered them and I decided to have a personal combination pizza. It was one of the best pizzas I've had in a very long time. The staff was very friendly and indeed they asked if we had seen the video online about the skulls.“

“Just ordered a mini combo that was bomb 💣. Great customer service and I thank you the owner for your service to our Country that’s what keeps me coming back as Veteran myself. Facebook fam when you in San Jose come on down and support the Veteran family and the best pizza in San Jo“

“Okay, this was my first time ever eating Pizza My Heart! (I am from the Midwest!) Despite Covid the service and quality of Pizza was outstanding! I sat outside and had a big slice of Big Sur all to myself! It was indescribably delicious! I WILL be back ♥️“

“Great pizza, friendly service. 😊“

“This is my favorite Pizza My Heart!! Enzo is always friendly, happy to see us, and just an all around good human. While we were there eating, he went and opened the door for a gentleman who is disabled in a wheelchair and greeted him with a smile. The whole team in general is spectacular. All around a great vibe, the customer service is also EXCELLENT!!

Thank you for always being top notch. I moved out of the area and I am really going to miss coming in to see you guys. Cheers!“

“Genuinely the hottest, freshest pizza/pasta I can order by a wide margin. Everything is to order when it comes in and you can tell. Toppings are not stingy, and the bread it comes with is always a great extra.

And a strangely giant selection of individual canned sodas. Cant complain about anything.“

“I like this spot when I need to pop in and out for a quick meal. I particularly love their lunch special of half a pizza and a salad, which for me is just about perfect.

They do a great job on Sicilian style pizza, counter ordering is fast, efficient and sufficiently friendly; the cook level is just about perfect; and they get the food out quickly even on busy nights. The ingredients seem fresh and good quality, and the work area behind the counter seems clean. This is San Pedro Market Square so it's very casual shared seating and bussing with the other businesses.

Google asks if parking is difficult. I usually walk or bike here, each couldn't be easier with the BikeLink lockers in the adjacent parking garage. When I drive, parking is always available in the Market Street when I go. I think it can be more challenging on event nights.“

“#NationalPizzaDay #NoFreebie #NoBoGo 😂 I was a little disappointed they took down their weekly special bbq chicken pizza off on Thursday.“

“Pizza took a little longer than usual to get but other than everything was perfect.“

“Al pastor pizza is pretty dang good. And their wings are absolutely how wings are supposed to be, crispy and breaded and doused in their many sauce flavors. 👌🏽. First time trying this place and I'm NOT Disappointed. Would definitely recommend and consider ordering again. 👍🏽“

“Excellent food and great flavors!
The pizza was absolutely delicious, perfectly baked with a great balance of cheese, sauce, and toppings. The garlic sticks were a pleasant surprise, bursting with flavor and a unique desi masala twist that made them stand out from typical garlic bread. The chicken wings were cooked to perfection, juicy, flavorful, and coated in just the right amount of sauce.

Overall, the food was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. If you’re craving a mix of classic pizza goodness with a hint of desi spice, this place is definitely worth trying!“

“I ordered two Not So Margharita pizzas. One my son ordered with his specification, and one with my own flavor profile. Long story short, my son ate my pizza, and when I took my first bite I could tell immediately it was not what I ordered. I asked my son about it and he assured me he had eaten the right pizza. I called Pizza California and stated my problem with my pizza. The assistant manager called the manager. We were on the phone, going over and over my receipt I screamed and shouted. In the end the manager decided to come pick up the wrong pizza and bring me another. In the meantime I was not satisfied and checked my computer… sure enough, my pizza matched item by item the one my son ordered. I called back to apologize very graciously they accepted. They had already made and delivered the new pizza. I tried to pay for the new pizza as well… but they wouldn’t accept my payment. They were so gracious and kind…. I just don’t know what to say. I truly appreciate the way they went out of their way to express their appreciation for my apologies and truly showed me they care about their customers. Thank you so much pizza California Management. Your pizzas are truly delicious and you truly care about your customers!!“

“Pizza is great 👍. Great support to the community. We have our recent community outreach program and they have been generous in supporting the community. 👍👍👍“

“Never been a busy pizza place. Need a better selection of tape beers. Pitcher of beer acceptable price. The pizza doo aka bread is the BEST I have tasted for years there.No other pizza place I now has there doo tast. Toppings tasty price acceptable.“

“I love Bibos and the young lady that helped me and recommended the sour beers is wonderful!“

“Typically I go to dominoes, but it seems Dominoes is lackluster for veggie options as compared to Curry Pizza - so we ended up getting all of our food from Curry Pizza - not to forget kiddos do not eat spicy food

Vegetarian options: Large veggie options - regular veggie, paneer etc.

Kid-friendliness: They can cater to non-spicy options“

“with the advent of shrinkflation or quality reduction I am happy to say Fast Pizza still holds true to their product delivering on quality pizza with great flavor year over year. When other pizza places reduce toppings or go to lower quality vendors fo save a few bucks, Fast Pizza still continues to deliver on the taste and quality I am familiar with and enjoy of them over I would say 20 years since their first opening. I don't often order American Style pizza but Fast Pizza continues to be the first number on my list.“

“had the munchies and there pizza n garlic bread was fuego“

“First timer, friendly service ,PIZZA WAS AMAZING!! Definitely will refer to friends and family! I’ll be back 😎“

“This was indeed a great parlor for pizza! They sevre Halal protein, all the meat they have is Halal which obviously means it’s healthy and nutritious. From the service to the cleanliness of the restaurant, everything was on point. 10/10 would recommend for pizza.“

“I ordered delivery and they accepted cash, unlike some other places. Best of all, their phone line doesn't send you to AI-- you call, they pick up-- it's that easy.

Pepperoni pizza was great. The garlic bread was delicious. And the wings were solid.

Will definitely be ordering again in the future.“

“Great pizza!
I appreciated Sunny, he provided excellent customer service.
This is a pick up or to go only pizza spot. That’s why I only gave it Four stars for atmosphere but that being said,
this establishment is clean and food was delicious the toppings were fresh and they have fair and competitive prices.
Will definitely come back again to try some of their other offerings 👌🏽

Side note: They offer the largest pizza I’ve ever seen.“

“Went in at 2:30pm on a wednesday, no problems parking in the free street parking area. Could have easilt found a seat to eat at if we didnvt choose to get food for take out.

Food was great especilaly for the value relative to the amount of food you get. Ordered a king kong sized meat lover's pizza and it was good.

Service was great relative to what you would expect in a pizza spot and what service can be offered when ordering take out.

Atmosphere appeared good, the place was clean and not noisy.“

“Great local place, an institution in Almaden. This is not your average round table. I have a patio where they will sometimes have music, and they have local artists displayed on the walls. They have a happy hour, and they have a room to rent out for meetings.“

“Highly Recommended this Place“

“Love this Chuck E. Cheese! It’s huge! My son and his friends had a ball for his 7th Birthday yesterday. The adults enjoyed it too. Food was good. Salad bar was fresh. Host was awesome. I purchased the Ultimate Package for a party of 13. It included a discount. All kids left with a prize! We will be back!“
