    Make sure to bring CASH! What a deal to get 2 slices and a can of soda for $9! There was no wait. You choose the slices of pizza you want that is available in the case and they will heat up the pizza for you! Great customer service. I called in advance to see if there were tables available for a large party. They have indoor seating and outdoor seating. The outdoor seating area is in the shade. Would recommend this place if you are looking for a quick bite! Parking was harder to find. There are some spots by the restaurant, meter parking, and paid parking lots.

    Honestly this was such a relief to find NY style slice pizza. So delicious! It is a fast paced environment the staff is working hard knocking pizzas out the oven back to back. Hats off to them! I went ahead and tried a slice of pepperoni and feta with spinach. Enjoyed every single bite. They do have seating out towards the right side of where you order. Nice little mom n pop shop. Try it out!

    As an east coaster who relocated to SD almost ten years ago, my goal has consistently been to find pizza, bagels, & egg sandwiches like they make at home or as close to it as possible. To this day, I'm still at a loss regarding the bagels & egg sandwiches as nothing has really come close (honorable mention: Pop-Up Bagels), but the legit closest I've come to having NY Style pizza in SD is absolutely Bronx Pizza! Bronx has been around since 1997 & they're coming up on their 30th Anniversary! That's quite a milestone. During the time I've lived in SD, I've come here a handful of times & it is always consistently simple, fresh, & tasty. You can buy individual slices or whole pies, but just make sure you bring cash. Services is fast & friendly, no-nonsense, but efficient. These guys know what they are doing. Bronx has two main dining areas & a couple of tables in the front. You bus your own tables, and tables are first come first serve. Street parking only. The decor has not been changed, probably since they opened, but it's giving "pizza joint that has been around for awhile & focuses on pizza and not trends or frivolous things" - that's good in my book. The vintage pictures of boxers including Ali, Tyson & more are pretty cool. Verdict: if you like pizza, come here! It is affordable & tasty.

    FINALLY stopped in to grab some pizza after having Bronx on my list of spots to eat at for years! Absolutely delicious. Definitely a little hole in the wall spot and cash only, but the pizza was fantastic. Perfectly crispy with lots of topping options. I love that they do pizza by the slice here.

    Hole in the wall spot that delivers exactly what it promises, authentic New York style thin crust pizza done right. As a pizza lover, truly enjoyed it. The Whitestone and pesto slices are standouts and worth coming back for. The $9 combo for two slices and a drink is an unbeatable value, especially for the quality you're getting. Staff is friendly and keeps things moving. If you're testing whether a pizza spot is legit, this one passes.

    Porko , Pepperoni

    Porko ($4) - This slice transported me to New York City. It had the classic crispy thin crust that you could fold and enjoy. I'd recommend this slice if you want a variety of meat as it has pepperoni, meatball, and sausage. Pepperoni ($4) - I thoroughly enjoyed this slice, too. Whitestone ($4) - My husband ordered this and it was surprisingly my favorite slice! It was by far the most flavorful because of the ricotta and garlic. Highly, highly recommend this popular SD pizza spot!

    Porko slice!

    Been coming here for 30 years and really enjoy this pizzeria. All different types of slices. No POS system so ya gotta have cash. I think Dave from One Bite should review this pizza. Gotta get the $9 special it's a total bargain. Porko is my fav. But the Cheese and others are all great! Whenever I'm in SD I stop here and pickup slices.

    Delicious thin crusted pizza in Hillcrest. We were able to easily get street parking on a weekday. Cash only, ATM inside. Plenty of seating indoors. We tried the pesto, pepperoni, and the porko slices. The pizza tasted fresh and they also heat up the slices for you (we ate there). My favorite was the pesto and there is a generous amount on top. Would happily come back and grab a quick slice!!

    Overall a very solid slice for the price. We got a pepperoni slice, a Whitestone slice, and a pesto slice. Out of the three, I liked the pepperoni the most, it had the best balance of flavor and texture. The pepperonis were solid, and sauce the cheese ratio were good. However, I felt the sauce was a little lacking in flavor and the bottom of the very floppy and didn't hold up very well even though I ate it within 5 mins of getting it. The Whitestone pizza is a solid choice, but it is very ricotta heavy so it might not be a great choice for people who don't love it. I enjoyed the texture a lot on this one though, nice and crispy bottom and good crust flavor. The pesto was probably my least favorite. A little overly salty taste. Pesto wasn't super flavorful. I probably wouldn't get that one again. Definitely worth grabbing a slice or two from Bronx pizza if you're in the area or want some very reasonably priced slices. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    Combo Pizza by the Slice
    Caitlin D.

    Haven't been here for *years,* glad to see it's still standing strong. It felt a little loud and chaotic though, guess that's the vibe. I didn't look too closely at the menu since there was a line forming behind me. Although the pesto pizza looked amazing, I told the guy 1 Combo Pizza Slice. I think they had a deal for 2 slices and a drink-- my friends said it was pretty reasonable price. Next time I'd get that, but I was feeling overwhelmed so I insisted on just one slice. Combo- it had sausage and pepperoni! I love how thin the pizza was. It was still able to hold its shape when being held and it wasn't overly oily at all. The sausage was good, I love when there's fennel in it. The crust was also good. I think they mastered reheating the pizza because it was hot, but not burnt. This is a CASH ONLY spot, but they do have atm in the back seating area if you do need to get some cash out. There's two tables in the main ordering area, 4-8 in the middle section, and even more in the back. In addition, on the tables they have: oregano herb, garlic seasoning, crushed red pepper, and parm available.

    Porko and Whitestone

    This is a great place if you're craving a quick, no-frills pizza place! Parking wasn't great, but we found street parking pretty easily and there's actually plenty of seating inside. There's a nice casual ambiance! This is a cash only, quick service establishment. We ordered the Whitestone and the Porko, portion sizes are huge. The Whitestone had that creamy ricotta + garlic combo that's super savory and satisfying, while the Porko was loaded with pepperoni, sausage, and meatballs. Great bang for you buck, can't wait to come again!

    This place is the bomb. Centrally located in Hillcrest area. They have great NY style pizza sold by the slice or the whole pie. Quite a few choices for veggies and meat eaters by the slice. If not, you can always have it made your way with a whole pie. Very reasonable priced, especially nowadays with prices being so high. 2 slices and a drink for $9.00. You can't beat that. Plenty of seating space. No alcohol, No credit cards. ONLY CASH. Good thing is they have an ATM on-site. I can eat here regularly and never get tired.

    Bronx is AMAAAAZING! The crust, the sauce, the cheese...*insert tears of goodness here* So I've eaten lots of pizza in my lifetime. I've had enough pizza to judge that Bronx is one of the top contenders in SD in terms of NY pizza. They got all the elements down: foldable slices, the cheese that goes harmoniously with the marinara is then slathered on top and ever so shimmers with glory, and the crust is ever so crispy...airy...and amazing. When I picked up my slices for the first time, I inhaled all that cheesy goodness and couldn't wait to sit down at the table to scarf it all down. My first stop was a dine-in, and just a reminder that they take cash only! They have lots of tables out in the back. Pizza took a while to get warmed up when it's busy. I highly, highly recommend trying Bronx on your day off. They won't disappoint.

    Is your (new) Italian sausage permanent of temporary. My sausage tastes so bad of freezer burn I had to take it all off to enjoy. Please bring back the OG sausage?! 🙏🏼

    If you have a problem with your pizza order call the restaurant they'll make it right. I personally don't like the sausage, but I'm also a picky eater

    I am sorry to ask but I am Siciliano and cannot handle wet dough pizza since we use Focaccia bread down there - does Bronx style include the soft center or a wet part or are your pies cooked until the crust is firm?…

    Don, as a former NYr they don't have Sicilian, just the best Neapolitan pies with great thin crust. Also Calzones. Voted top 20 pizzerias in the US!!

    Are slices available every day of the week now?

    Yes, every single day

    Is it cash only?

    Yes it's cash only, they do have an ATM on premises..

    Gluten free options?

    No but it tastes amazing

    Is Dine-in back?

    No, take away is here to stay

    Do they offer any delivery service. Not on door dash?

    Sorry no delivery, come pick it up, we’ll have it ready when you get here😃

    How long does it typically take for them to make one pie for takeout?

    About 20 minutes. Call ahead and order so you don't have to wait.

    Have they started up dine in again yet? Or selling by the slice?

    Selling slices now, but not open yet… opening soon!

    Do you deliver to 91913?

    They don't deliver ANYWHERE. Go pick it up yourself.

    Is your restaurant dog friendly?

    Never seen a dog inside but not sure. Been there many many times

    Do they do deep dish pizza?

    Negative! Bronx = NY, deep dish is Chicago style! ;-) Have a nice day.

    When you order a whole pie will they do a half-half if you request? E.x. Half pepperoni half cheese

    Absolutely! They've done this for us in the past

    Do they truly use water from NY?

    It’s not heavy or hard to ship because they bring it in dehydrated.

They all came out separately which isn't ideal since people typically want to enjoy all their desserts together. - was automatically charged for the 6+ group gratuity even though it we only had 5 people. would've tipped 20% anyway but found this to be sneaky... - had a 4% additional charge for "rising operating costs" - a terrible business practice that is becoming all too common

It was a Friday evening and every restaurant on the street was full and vibrant. You could Yelp these places all day long and it would be hard to choose. There's so many great restaurants around Little Italy. Mimmo's reached out and called us in. There were pretty white tablecloths, the hostess was smiling ready to answer any questions and of course, the menu looked wonderful. Voilà! We'd found our spot. Our waiter was so personable and had all the answers to our inquiries. He suggested items and even answered honestly when needed. I got a Le Pécora Nera Sangria (fizzy blackberry with lemon). Tasty, but too many blackberry seeds coming up the straw. I'd get another one next time. For the appetizers: RISOTTO ARANCINI (a MUST get) - these were absolutely delicious. Four good size bread crumbed fried balls of risotto sitting in the restaurant's own tomato gravy. HOMEMADE FOCACCIA WITH DIPPING OIL (yes, that's the official name) - this is a basket of super soft, warm focaccia bread for a great price. I would get it no matter what main course you're getting! It soaks up every sauce and it's just delicious. MAIN: BAKED LASAGNA (meat) - with the two appetizers this is the perfect size for both of us. No need to get one per person! It was absolutely wonderful. I would get it again. All in all, I'd definitely go back. The food was absolutely delicious and flavorful and the employees we came in contact with were great as well. We didn't want to sit at a table right next to the hundreds of people walking by, I don't like that, but there are plenty other options one row in or inside the restaurant.
