The pizza is good but the way they only take payment through their website is dumb. Has prevented me from spending money there multiple times.

Ordered a couple of slices not expecting much and I was blown away. Best pizza I have had by the slice in the Bay Area compared to other overhyped places that don’t deserve the recognition. You won’t be disappointed.

Disappointed ugh...i ordered with a curbside pickup for delivery. I followed the instructions to call when i arrived, left tip thinking they would deliver to my car. I had to go in to get my pie, asked about the curbside, he just looked at me like he didn't know anything. The place was pretty much closed down, when i asked what was going on, why no table seating as if it were 2020 again. My receipt literally says my name and Curbside with the description of my vehicle....he could of said, sorry we don't do curbside any longer. The reason this place is slow is there own doing.

Pretty good crust ,perhaps a lil bit too thick .tried a vegan chz pie with mushrooms .the vegan chz they use isn't my favorite,but I get it's hard w vegan chz . Sauce sadly didn't have much flavor . I will get pizza here again .it wasnt bad by any means . score would be higher if the sauce was a lil more flavorable .And I might ask them to keep it in the oven and extra minute or two .No pail riders please ... Also its to go only and doesn't take cash

Great pizza (we tried the pepperoni, margarita and the veggie one) and beer during happy hour. Sausage roasted pepper pizza rocks as well!!! Tad expensive though :(. This place is literally 1 min from our house but it's a little expensive for our budget, but happy hour deal is not bad! Love the design (outside and inside) of the place and the staff is very friendly and young!
