Really solid pizza. It was overall a great vibe, with a nice outdoor area. I had heard a lot of great things about Buzzo's before finally getting an opportunity to eat here, so was really hopeful. Definitely see why people like it! The crust is damn near perfect, and the arancini was wonderful.
The better pizza was definitely the margherita. I had heard a lot about the potato pizza, but to me it just didn't really seem to work; there were so many ingredients and it just didn't meld well to me.
Neither pizza had the marbling on the cheese I was hoping for, but definitely overall a really solid experience! Would come back for sure!

The pepperoni pizza followed by a brownie and gelato was one of the best meals we’ve had in the area!

Pizza was great! Very fresh. We also had the meatballs and they were amazing!
Let me start with the toppings were fresh and tasty albeit honestly to much due to fact I ordered multiple toppings. The dough was fresh However it tasted like charcoal from oven being to hot. Went early as well before they we're busy,very disappointing

Superb pizza, crispy cauliflower, and meatballs in tomato sauce.

THE BEST! I’ve been to Buzzo 4 times at this point because their pizza is the best in Santa Cruz (in my opinion as a New Englander). The atmosphere is lively but also somehow relaxed and the side salads are GREAT too. Also I don’t feel like I’ve gone into debt when I’ve gone which keeps us coming back.
Buzzo exceeded our expectations! The atmosphere was inviting and cozy. The service was attentive and professional. And the food was absolutely terrific. We got a celery pear fennel salad that was crisp, fresh, flavorful, and perfect. We also ordered the squash delicatta pizza, and we were impressed. The wood-fired crust had just the right amount of chew, while staying perfectly soft inside and having excellent flavor. The sauce, squash, and bacon added richness and layers of flavor and individuality. Overall, this food was made with the highest quality and most flavorful ingredients, and an attention to detail that made the entire dining experience a pleasure. I highly recommend Buzzo Pizza; you will be happy you chose to visit.

Pizza is excellent here! Pasta and Caesar salad were big enough portions to share and were equally delicious! When checking out the pizza oven, I noticed the food prep area was as large as the dining room. The chefs gotta love cooking in this kitchen! It was designed by the owner, and all I can say is I was impressed and I will be back.

Our first time at Buzzo was long over due, but it was worth the wait! We brought our 14 month old along with friends and their 16 month old and everyone including the kids loved the food and the vibes. The staff was accommodating, friendly and efficient and the food was absolutely delicious. We will be back soon!
