I came here with my friend! She had been here before and really liked it, but it was my first time. I loved the food here! We got the hot honey pizza and the smash burger to share. We also got one drink each - I got the Big Apple Punch (wine float), and she got the strawberry spritz. Both were really good! The food was really good too - the pizza was super chewy and fluffy as well as packed with flavor (pepperoni, melty cheese, and hot honey). The smashburger was good as well but the fries were super crispy! For dessert, we got the Bundt cake! It was almond flavored, with pistachio cream and sorbet as well as a lot of mixed berries! Overall, definitely a delicious and decadent meal! The service was great as well! We were offered garlic chili oil - very aromatic and delicious (great with the pizza). The ambiance was also nice! The restaurant is two stories, and you enter on the second story. We were sat on the first floor. The tables are pretty close together, but it's still comfortable! I liked the vinyls decorating the walls as well. Would definitely come back here again !! :) read more

Back to Back - B2B Smashburger - Pizza Near Me - San Francisco, California

Super cute spot for unique pizzas. I loved the ambiance inside and service was super friendly. It was easy to make a res online, and it got pretty packed later in the evening so I'd recommend making one! We tried the burrata pizza and the burnt leek pizza and both were great. The cheese on top makes the pizza super creamy and flavorful. The pizzas are on the smaller side for the price imo but the flavor combos are super unique, and the crust is done well. Dessert was also so yummy! Seems like a fun place to celebrate a special occasion. Would definitely want to come back to try more of the menu. read more

Solid food. We had 4 pizzas-burnt leek, mushroom, hot honey and snob hill. If you like pizza with some sweetness I would get the hot honey and burnt leek. For small plates, we had the east of north beach which I personally wasn't a big fan of. It's a fusion-y pasta dish with chicarron, pork belly and some veggies on top. I would still give it a five star for creativity. The vietnamese roll as ok. Caviar cheesy puff was cheesy enough. I like the beet salad. Love the menu item names. For dessert we had the orange you sweet and icecream and i liked both! The servers here were busy but friendly. It was pretty busy on a wednesday evening and I love that they play different types of music from the record player. The table was a bit small for our party of 6 but it wasn't a big deal. I also liked the wine selection here. read more

Came here for dinner with friends and enjoyed almost everything! The pizzas were fun and burrata-ful on thin crusts, and the appetizers were good with the brussel sprouts being my favorite. However, the mezcal crudo appetizer was honestly horrible. It tasted like a straight shot of tequila, no fish flavor or anything else really, and I couldn't even finish my bite. I think the intention was for it to be brushed on? Instead it was pretty much dunked in the alcohol. Our waiter noticed we couldn't finish it and spoke to the kitchen as well as took it off our bill, which was generous and beyond expected for service, so the restaurant left a good impression overall despite the one difficult dish to swallow. read more

Back to Back is a great spot because of the menu options and seating. We ate outside and watched the street car cruise by. I would order the pulled pork mozzarella wings again and the pizzas. The burrata pizza with squash purée was extremely tasty. The chili crisp can be asked for and is delicious. I can't wait to come back again for a date night or evening with friends. Reservations may be a good idea on weekends. read more

3 1/2 stars. This is the old Venticello space. Venticello was always cozy, romantic. You've got brick, you're on a hill (Nob), out front there's a view of the bay bridge, the pizza oven aromas are forever wafting... What's not to love? But this is a bit too cozy. I've had dinner here now 3 times, & every time it was challenging to have a conversation because the tables are SO close together. You can hear everyone next to you, everyone next to you can hear you. And getting to & from your table? Your coat will hit every table & chair you have to pass on the way. So cozy romantic neighborhood vibe, not so much. It's more NYC grand central station terminal, only without the trains. That's not meant to be a bad thing, I love GCS. Just know going in. Now, the food. The allure & the aromas of the pizza oven are thoroughly intoxicating. No disputing that. You'd be remiss not to try a pizza. But when that pizza is small enough to be considered an individual size & averages more than 30 bucks (I must have hot honey!), that's just hard to justify. We always do a spicy meat variation. Crust was always on point, & while toppings aren't on the generous side, they are fresh & flavorful. Tasting quality is always a win. There is pasta on the menu as well, & I did enjoy the gnocchi each time I had it, once with peas, once with corn & roe. But honestly these were ordered just to round out our meal (to try something additional to the salad & pizza), & next time I might skip the pasta & just order 2 pies. One salad, one pizza, & 2 glasses of wine will run you over a hundred dollars. That's one salad you shared with your date, & without dessert. Typical SF prices? Maybe. But when the tables are set up like this (to churn & burn), & with the vinyl spinning dance hall vibe, the prices seem disproportionate, & too steep for multiple weeknight visits. This spot gets busy. I mean jumpin busy. Our server has forgotten our wine on 2 visits. First time, after ordering we waited at least 15 minutes, our drinks never arrived. Then he brought out our appetizer. Without our drinks. We waited another 15 minutes, then we finally just reminded him. He apologized. The second time, almost the same scenario entirely except this time my husband got our server's attention & reminded him just before the appetizer came out. Easy to forgive once, but now there's a pattern. There are 2 bars, one tiny one downstairs with the pizza oven, a larger one upstairs. There's also a tiny bit of seating upstairs, if you don't mind being right next to the entrance. But again, it's very tight quarters. I'd recommend the upstairs bar for the clandestine feel, & the downstairs bar if you want to survey the oven action & the dining room. With the DJ spinning vinyl, and all the bustle, it is a fun spot. Best for dinner with friends. And if you don't mind difficulty in being able to talk & hear, a casual date night. 3 1/2 stars read more

Great flavor but the pizza was floppy. My friend who has been here said it's usually a littleee crispier? But it was really really soft. That said, dessert and appetizer (we got the Brussel sprouts) were really good and honestly very good vibes. I'd be back just for the ambiance and wine! Pizza was a let down though. read more

I've been wanting to try Back to Back for a while and came for a little date night on a Thursday night. We made a reservation beforehand and was able to get seated quickly. I would definitely recommend getting a reservation rather than trying to walk-in if possible as it was packed even for a weekday night. We started with the squid games app to share and loved the squid stuffed with pork, shrimp and sausage! The tomatoey romesco sauce was delicious and the crispy breadcrumbs added a nice crunchy texture. Flavorful wise it really packed a punch! Of course we had to get the pizza and shared the burratata! and burnt leek. Between the two, I liked the burnt leek more - the smoked pancetta was great and super good with the creamy stracciatella. The burratata was good as well with sausage, squash puree and burrata. You really can't go wrong with the combo but I wished the sausage had a bit more seasoning. Overall really cute spot for date night or a casual but nice night out with friends. The atmosphere is a bit loud and busy though and the tables are packed in tight. We did share a sparkling syrah as well which seemed fitting for a pizza spot and it was a nice and light wine to drink with the pizza! read more

This is three star pizza. The wood-fired crust is very tasty, but isn't done enough (soggy in the middle on both pizzas). The cheese was bland and slightly too sticky. The sauce had flavor but wasn't deep enough and sauce was spread too thin. The service, which doesn't factor into my pizza rating, was very good. read more

Food was great -- had the hot honey pizza, bread and anchovy spread, and pork belly. Everything was well executed and the flavors complemented each other nicely. Service, unfortunately, was a major letdown. We were told we'd be seated after a table was cleaned, so we waited outside to avoid blocking staff. I watched them reset and split the table, but another couple who walked in afterward was seated immediately, while we were never called back in. When we went back inside to ask, the server started taking our name as if we had just arrived. I calmly explained that we had already been waiting and had seen another walk-in couple seated ahead of us (which they later confirmed). It was clear there was a mistake, but it left a bad impression. I've been here a few times and the food has been consistently good, but the service experience was disappointing enough that I won't be returning or recommending it. read more

We sat in the bar where there are only four tables, and they spin records on a record player and it was so cozy!!! 10 out of 10 on vibes and quality of the food. Faris was a sweetheart and welcoming.

My friend visiting from NY found this charming restaurant on TikTok and suggested a weekday meetup here. As a local, I have heard of tons of businesses, but this place wasn't on my radar yet. I'm so glad we decided to try this place and even were able to get a reservation the day of! When we arrived (early), we were warmly greeted and taken to our table promptly. Our server was very attentive but didn't hover. I felt like the service here was fantastic. We decided to get the 'That's Hot, Honey' fan-favourite pizza with brussels sprouts as an appetizer. The food was excellent and just the right amount for us two. This is such a great spot for a chill, intimate dinner. Highly recommend! read more

Been wanting to try Back to Back for a while now! Loved my experience here, came with a group of 5 to celebrate a birthday and could not have asked for better service and a better night! Sort of loud inside - caught myself yelling at some points in the night but it was super lively for a Thursday night! Cocktails were great, food was even better. We got two of the Thats Hot, Honey pizzas and added burrata since the burrata pizza wasn't speaking to us. It was wildly good and would highly recommend. Wish we tried some of the smaller plates but theres always next time.. Loved looking at all the vinyl records they have in here as well! Will be back soon! read more

Back to Back definitely shines for its upscale ambience. Its two-tiered dining area is beautifully decorated with hand drawn posters, record players, and lights. I can see why it draws so much of an audience on weekends. I thought the food was ok. The service was a bit slow, which is understandable with the full dining room. We got three pizzas and a salad, and while we asked for the salad to be brought out at the same time as the pizzas, as it was someone's main meal, it wasn't brought out until about ten minutes after the pizzas were served. I'd definitely recommend this place as a nice date spot but I believe you can get better food and service elsewhere. read more

A good friend recommended this neighborhood spot, and I'm so glad we all dinner one evening during a recent visit to San Francisco. They were so nicely accommodating to add one more person to our party of 5 to equal 6 on a Saturday night - so grateful! Their menu has a nice variety that everyone was happy with what they had - burgers, pizza, pasta, drinks, dessert - so tasty and satisfying! Our whole party was completely happy with our dining experience. The ambiance is lively - loved the energy of this place! And the service was friendly and helpful. Thank you so much! I would come back here on my next visit to San Francisco, and I would recommend it for both small parties and group reservations. read more

Back to Back is a solid wood-fired pizza spot, but for me it's very much a stick-to-the-pizzas kind of place. We tried two pizzas, the hot honey and the burnt leek, and I'd honestly rate them about the same overall. The hot honey pizza stood out mainly because the honey and hot sauce really carried it. Without that extra kick, the base pizza was pretty meh. The burnt leek pizza had great flavor and was probably my favorite bite-wise, but both pizzas had the same issue for me with the crust. It leaned soft and I wish it had more crisp. We also ordered the duck-stuffed pasta appetizer, which was by far the weakest thing we had. It sounded great but ended up being very underwhelming. It was dry, lacked flavor, and wasn't even close to the pizzas. I'd come back, but next time I'd skip the appetizers entirely and just stick to the pizzas read more

I got the Hot Chicory salad. It was delicious and huge. Got the Salsiccia pizza, added pepperoni, and it was excellent. The wait staff was friendly. Made sure to save room for dessert and ordered the Hot Flakey Tart - supposed to be a hot apple tart with ice cream and caramel sauce. What a let down. For $15 bucks, you get a tart the size of a matchbox and a scoop of ice cream the size of a thimble. Totally not worth the $15 and the experience left a bad taste to the whole experience. Don't order the tart. read more

Came on a weekday with a reservation. I ordered the hot honey pizza without pepperonis. It was okay -- the pizza was warm with a very thin crust and came with chili oil.

I dined here last week with a friend and was blown away by the food. We started with the Brussel sprouts which were soft yet crispy at the same time and the sauce was to die for!! It just kept getting better when our ravioli came out - I'm not crazy about asparagus but I would eat this for breakfast lunch and dinner. Next came our pizza and I loved the use of squash puree as a sauce! It was not too squashy and very good with the burrata ( and great leftovers) I also had a strawberry spritz which was very yummy. Our service was good, I forget his name but very knowledgeable about the menu and had good recommendations. read more

Finally tried B2B last night with a group of friends. We had the nice upstairs table next to the bar and it was perfect for 5. I thought all in all it was a good experience and I would return. We tried 2 pizzas: the shroom and the one with garlic sausage. I loved the garlic sausage one with fresh garlic coming through in every bite. These are neapolitan style pies. I read a few reviews lamenting the crust but the crust is good for this style of pizza. It's soft and chewy as it should be coming out of a wood fired oven around 900. Not sure if they're using 00 or something similar for flour but it's really good. My only complaint would be the pie size is very small. Easily enough for one hungry person. Also in line with napoletana style though. The seafood pasta was really good. Light on the olive oil and just enough flavor to be satisfying. Not overwhelming with oil or anything else. We had a good bottle of reasonably priced cab. Service was ok. It is loud in there though for sure. I saw a couple acoustic panel things they mounted to the ceiling but it isn't near enough to absorb all the noise. You will be yelling at each other across the dinner table. Naturally this seems to attract mostly a younger crowd but the whole thing works. Great neighborhood spot. read more

I was blown away by the food at Back to Back! We went in a big group of 8 and they worked with us to create a "tasting menu" to meet their $75 per person minimum for large groups.

The pizza here was excellent, but unfortunately, the overall experience fell short for me. The service was just okay, and the seating felt very tight, making it difficult to have a conversation.

I had dinner reservations for 2 with a friend Friday night and thank goodness we did because they were packed. I've had this place booked marked because their pizza looked good and I thought the ambiance would be cozy and fun. Their hot honey pizza was super soggy that when I'd pick up a slice, everything would fall. Their brussel sprouts was the only savior. We ordered our drinks with our food and didn't get our drinks until we were almost done eating. It was challenging to get a hold of our waiter. The ambiance on a Friday night was chaos. They had a whole bunch of tables/parties slightly squished together and it was too loud to catch up with my friend because of other conversations. I didn't even notice what songs were playing on vinyl. Overall, we left underwhelmed especially having to take Bart into the city from WC & South SF. read more

Back to Back is a cool little spot to casually enjoy some pizza with your homies or your other half. We came on an early Saturday dinner night and we were lucky enough to get seated right away. We quickly got sat at the bar. It's a little tighter space but ima little guy so it was okay for me. Once we sat down, we got our waters and the menu. We ended up ordering the Brussel Sprouts & the Burt Leek pizza. The Brussel Sprouts were juicy, crispy and very delicious. The Burnt Leek pizza was very good as well. While the pizza was freshly hot, the stracciatella cheese was cold (it's how it's supposed to be) and it made a freshly hot pizza easy and enjoyable to eat. The staff were friendly, on top of things and helpful. I would definitely return to Back to Back whenever I'm in the city. read more

I can't remember the last time I went to a restaurant where every single thing I ate was magnificent. Back to back just did it for me. At first I was not gung ho about coming here- nestled in a residential area parking was rough. We were there for a friends birthday and they had a minimum spend of $75 per person which I found ridiculous. The menu didn't wow me. Boy was I wrong. The food here is nothing short of amazing. There was not a single dish we did not devour. The dishes we ordered (all of which I would obviously order again) - Burrata - tomatoes were to die for! - kale - mix of crispy and cooked. So good - salad - obsessed with the dressing - house bread - like pizza crust! - hot honey pizza - perfect honey to pizza ratio - steak - looked more like a flank but still great - steelhead - loved how this fish was cooked - gnocci - the sauce was amazing The service was nothing to rave about but it wasn't bad. I didn't have a drink so I'm unsure of how the bar is. However, would 110% come back for food again. Delicious! read more

Great date night or girls' night out spot (we also saw what appeared to be work dinners there) located in Nob Hill near Huntington Park! Come via cable car, by foot, or by Muni. Love the vibes and music and service--very personable, fun, and funny. Tried the brussels sprouts for an appetizer--very delicious and filling. The Snob Hill and Thats Hot, Honey were also very good--are they supposed to be personal pizzas? We each got their own and I took 3 slices of mine home, but the table of 2 next to us shared 1 pizza. Whoops. (A table of 2 that came later had 1 pasta and 1 pizza--the gnocchi looked very good.) Prices seemed reasonable for the location. The honey of the "Thats Hot, Honey" was housemade and delicious. We devoured almost everything and also enjoyed the wine selection. I'm thinking of joining the wine club which has a monthly wine tasting, but I wish it wasn't an extra +$50ish for a +1 to the wine tasting :'( Still, I'm considering it! Will be back. Great addition to the neighborhood. read more

Really good food, honestly Im a big fan of the soft crust of the pizza. I enjoyed the margarita pizza and hot honey, and enjoyed the beet endive appetizer. Had a bit of a weird service experience though. There was nothing telling us we needed a reservation, but when we went there they said they had no non reservation tables open and so we left. After failing to find another food place 20 minutes later, we called and they said that we could set a reservation for right that second and sit down (which is like, the same as just walking in). The hostess/waitress did not inform us the first time that we could call and set up a reservation and just made it sound like they were fully booked (there was some other weird stuff about her, we were standing at the front after we came back waiting for her to finish texting on her phone to sit us) Overall a good place, just make sure to set up a reservation. The place itself is a nice setting, only complaint being the tables felt small and a bit cramped. Outside of that, the place was really good! If that stuff hadn't happened with the hostess, I would probably give this a 4/5 read more
