When I say I eat here a lot, I mean I eat here a LOT.
You won't find low quality ingredients, and you will probably be surprised by the size of a "Slice" it's almost 1/4 of a pie!
All of their regular pizzas are fantastic! I'm a big fan of the Porchetta, which has thick sliced pork belly and and salsa Verde which make for an amazing slice.
Other menu options of note are the Meatball sub, and their house salads (with in house made croutons), a great selection of canned craft beers, awesome house made brownies, and my favorite garlic cheese bread. All of which are sure to leave you super satisfied!
Either order online if you're getting takeaway, or swing by for a delicious meal on their comfortable patio!
Update 4th and last time:
No extra fresh cheese as ordered, very very little Italian sausage or mushrooms. RIDICULOUS!!! NOT AGAIN!!!!
time customer. I ordered the Calabrian Pizza, tomato sauce, cheese blend, house made Italian sausage, gaeta olives, Calabrian chili sauce, toasted fennel seeds. First, I should have checked how hot the Calabrian chili sauce is. It's very hot, so I won't do that again. I battled it throughout the night, if you know what I mean. 😵💫
That being said, it was a very good pizza. Yes, I'd prefer that they used a whole milk mozzarella, instead of a cheese blend and, yes, I think it's a pretty good crust, but the flavor could be further developed. I'm not sure if it's the flour or, maybe the rise could be longer. It's got the right texture but it's missing better flavor. The other toppings were great.
Update: 2nd time. The cheese blend and crust problems have lowered my rating. Go to Nick's for a much better crust and cheese. I wish they just had a regular whole milk mozzarella option for their pizza and developed better flavor in their crust. They have the potential to be an excellent pizza.
Update: 3rd time and probably last time unless I'm really desperate. Sadly, their Website didn't give me a chance to use my rewards points. It should be automatic.
I ordered a margarita pizza to avoid the terrible cheese blend and get the fresh mozzarella. Now, again, I'd prefer just whole milk mozzarella, with a fresh cheese option. The cheese was almost not there. So was the basil and, the sauce, which is delicious, was mostly clumped in the middle. Again, the crust needs more development for flavor. As for the $17 of added pepperoni, sausage and mushrooms, there were about $6 worth of actual ingredients. As all have said, it's way over priced and skimpy. It is only due to laziness that I may order it again. You need to do much better at these prices.
We walked in pretty close to closing (sorry about that fellas) and ordered a half pie which wasn't even on the menu but these guys not only took the order no problem, they just cooked us a whole pie out of the goodness of their hearts. 10/10 move they were so nice too. Also the pizza was delicious.
awesome place! the meat ball sub was amazing and was nice moist hawt pocket of meat.
Not the greatest location but man this place definitely set an insanely high bar for NY style pizza. Perfect flavor on the crust, just the right amount of grease, this place is a definite visit if you're a fan of NY style pizza.
Perfect new york style pizza! From the texture of the dough, the texture of the cheese, the greasiness of it, the crust on the edges, everything was spot on and good! High quality ingredients. Overall, best pizza of this style I've tried in the bay area!
I love rotten city pizza! I used to go here all the time and then when I moved away I was super bummed because no other pizza place could even come close . The pizza is just as delicious as the day this place opened (always consistently perfect!!). Honestly, its the most amazing pizza I've ever had! Staff was really friendly and it was a fast and easy pick up. Can't wait to come back! Thanks!
This should be a police report, not a review. Insulting people is not the way, pushing them out the door neither, calling that rubber scam pizza is almost as bad. I was hoping you’d get robbed, but that would be too pathetic.
Goodbye
