The pizza was amazing!!! Took a good amount of time to be seated when they didn't appear busy but I believe they were in the middle of shift change. Food was bomb though

Very well prepared Pizza. We got it to go. The family size is very generous. Thin crust pizza. The potato bacon is exotic but worth the try.

Arguably the best pizza in San Diego. Highly recommended! Very cool atmosphere too! Quasi open with a big garage door and a really high ceiling. Pool tables. Great bartenders and service too! I love this place.

Great pizza! It's probably the thinnest pizza I have ever had. Did not disappoint. Wish if the atmosphere was less loud and the bathrooms had a bit more light Would definitely be back!

This place is legit when it comes to an authentic pizza! Love the thin crust and excellent toppings. The East Village pie was awesome. Note that this is a picture of a small pie, so pace yourself! Cool vibe and very chill atmosphere.

Visited during Comic Con 2023. Delicious pizza and drink selections. Great place to split a large pizza and get drinks to share stories from the convention. Very close to the convention center. Highly recommended and would return in the future.

Ordered the small basic red pie with pepperoni to go. The pizza was fantastic. The crust has a little bit of char, but was still light and chewy. The cheese had a great pull to it and was just the right amount. I definitely will...Read More
