    Honestly one of the best spots I've come across in San Francisco. The pizza here is something else fresh dough, great toppings, and you can customize it exactly how you want. The tiramisu at the end was the perfect finish. The staff were super friendly and made the whole experience feel welcoming from the moment I walked in. Prices are totally reasonable for the quality you're getting. If you're anywhere near 4th Street, do yourself a favor and stop in. I'll definitely be coming back.

    I came to Fresca Garden Pizza and bought a combo pizza, and I specifically asked the cashier if the fountain drink was refillable before buying it. He said yes, so I purchased the medium fountain drink separately with the intention of sharing it with my friend while we ate our combo pizza. When I went to fill up the drink, every single option at the soda machine was completely flat. I let the cashier know, and instead of trying to fix the issue or offering a helpful solution, he gave me attitude and just tried to replace it with a bottled soda. The bottle only filled my medium cup halfway. I calmly explained that it wasn't enough because I bought a refillable drink based on what he told me, and it was supposed to be for both me and my friend. Instead of understanding, I got more attitude. He insisted it was a "one-time thing," even though the flat soda wasn't my fault and the half cup wasn't what I paid for or intended. A simple issue turned into a frustrating interaction, and the customer service was really disappointing. I hope they fix the soda machine and handle situations like this better in the future.

    We stopped here to grab a bite to eat before we saw Wicked. And let me tell you the pizza was so cheesy and good. They have a deal for $12 bucks where you get a half pepperoni pizza and a draft beer. Where else can you find that in the city. They also have a pretty big menu to. I can't wait to come back.

    The food was SO GOOD! The pizza was thin and delicious. The service was great! Luis was so kind and helpful. I will be there every time I come to town. The ambiance was nice and comfortable!

    Friendly and fast service. Food is hot and good. I also like their sweet potato fries with ranch dressing. Got free salad too. Thanks!

    As a Vegetarian, finding a good pizza place with tasty options can be a challenge. Fresca garden not only met my expectations but exceeded them. I was surprised to find out they have some 5-6 varieties in vegetarian pizzas which is pretty hard to find. I tried their Veggie Lovers pizza and absolutely loved it. The staff was also very knowledgeable about their menu and helped me pick the pizza after knowing my preferences. From this experience, I'm sure I'll be visiting them again soon with my vegan gang to try other Veggie options.

I've been to Tony's a few times, and the first two times, my hub and I have left raving about it and telling all our friends and fam to get to Tony's. If any menu item says Grandma in it.... you can be sure it's an incredible pizza. They're extremely accommodating and service is great. It's a l w a y s busy, even on weekdays, even in the middle of the work day. Reservations are smart! Parking is not easy but not impossible in the area. We live in the city so we always take public transportation. Within the last 6 months, I've discovered a gluten and dairy allergy that really took me down. Without getting into the gnarly details, it wasn't fun and I've been grieving pizza since this new discovery. So why would I go to Tony's with this new allergy? Because! I read that they offer a gluten free, dairy free pizza. Insane I know, but yet they offer it and I was PUMPED. When asking the waiter what I can get based on my needs, he responded to me like I was a war criminal. He was a Caucasian gentleman with brown hair. He raised his voice for all the diners to hear about my allergies, told me I couldn't get any pizza, and when I pointed out that there were options, he told me "I'll triple check if this is possible for you." When he came back and confirmed it was possible, he tells me they can do a gluten free pizza with vegan cheese and vegan pepperoni. It felt like the moment he heard 'gluten' and 'dairy,' he mentally categorized me as 'vegan' and stopped looking for ways to make the experience enjoyable. Yikes! Lol I fully recognize - girl, why did you go to a pizza spot with a gluten and dairy allergy? Yes I am not okay for this hahah but also I felt pretty embarrassed and treated really poorly. This experience doesn't reflect Tony's as a whole, but it was just a terrible interaction and that waiter made it real clear that he has no patience for anything that is inconvenient during his work shift.

    Thoroughly enjoyed this literal hole in the wall…read more We tried the clam and garlic pizza and a combo slice - the zucchini was a fun addition to what was otherwise just a slice of supreme pizza. I don't know what I expected from the clam and garlic slice, but the flavor wasn't overwhelming from either ingredient, however it was delicious. The team here is quick and efficient in a very busy pickup window. We took our slices for a 3 minute walk to the beautiful park at Washington Square to enjoy our lunch - highly recommend.

    Based on our one visit, either this place is all hype or we got a really bad slice…read more The place feels like NYC -- a walk up off a random street. There was a line, but it wasn't too bad. Guy at that counter was friendly and worked efficiently. After we ordered, it took 10 minutes to get our slices and we ate immediately. The slices were above room temp (so I know it was reheated), but it nowhere near hot. The dough is very thick, but had a very soft chew and zero crunch. The garlic and clam was a great taste, but it's hard to enjoy what essentially felt like a slice of focaccia that was reheated for 15 seconds in a microwave. Again, I have to believe something was terribly wrong with our order, especially after looking at the reviews and seeing the Dave Portnoy review. Maybe it was placed in a cold oven? Maybe someone put a bunch of slices in the oven at different times and accidentally pulled out the newest addition to the oven and served it to us?? Is it all hype??!! Either way, our trip is too short make a second go to sort it out.

    First time at Outta Sight Pizza and I was genuinely so impressed!…read more We originally came in hoping to grab four slices of the thick pepperoni and jalapeño, but they only had two left for the day, so we grabbed those along with two other slices. Unfortunately, there ended up being an issue with part of our order, but before we even had the chance to say anything, the team had already taken care of it for us. That honestly stood out to me more than anything. There was no awkward back and forth, no need for us to complain or ask for anything. They noticed something wasn't up to their standard and immediately made it right on their own. That level of customer service, especially on our first visit, was such a great surprise. And the pizza itself was SO good. We ended up having the pepperoni and what I believe was a vodka cheese slice, and absolutely loved both. Great pizza, even better people, and the kind of customer service that makes you want to come back. I unfortunately didn't catch everyone's names, but huge shoutout to the team working today. You guys made an amazing first impression. We'll definitely be back!

    No flop Was craving…read moresome pizza and stopped by for a few slices. Order at the counter, and they heat up the slices for you. Mostly went for the thin crust. They make things crisp here. The pizza has charred edges like Neapolitan which adds a nice smokey flavor. The crust has zero flop and a nice golden crust on top. Sauce has a tough of sweetness. I also enjoyed their use of fresh basil and the grated Parmigiano-Reggiano they throw on at the end. It's kinda like a new york slice, but a little gourmet? Very tasty for sure. Critiques: First off, each slice is $6-7, which is a bit steep. Maybe times have changed, but this is def not a budget meal, especially if you are eating multiple slices. Second, some of their already crispy slices have been sitting on display for some time and completely cooled down. When these slices are then reheated, there is a bit of an overcooked taste? Lastly, they only have a few topping options and the quantity of toppings on each slice (especially protein) is pretty sparse. I also ordered a slice of the Sicilian as well to mix things up. It was good, but the crust was just a touch too greasy for me.

My friend tried the Tomato Garlic and didn't like it much, maybe just because there wasn't any tomato sauce.

When we arrived, our waitress didn't seem very knowledgeable about the beers, but honestly, that wasn't a big deal. My boyfriend ordered his pizza while I was still deciding what I wanted. His pizza came out very quickly, which we had no complaints about. The issue started when we had barely been seated for about 15 minutes. I went to the restroom, and while I was gone, the waitress approached my boyfriend while he literally had pizza in his mouth and a full beer in front of him and told him, "My chef said to charge you." He was confused but said okay because it made us wonder if they were closing. I checked the hours, and they weren't supposed to close until 10 PM--it was barely around 9 PM. I HADN'T EVEN ORDERED MY FOOD YET. I was still planning on ordering my own pizza, dessert, and a drink. Instead, we suddenly felt like we were being rushed to pay and leave. What made the situation even more unprofessional was that she left the payment device at our table for Apple Pay and then actually left the restaurant. She was the only server we had seen around, so we were basically left sitting there with the payment device and no server. We eventually had to get up ourselves to find someone so we could ask for boxes and return their payment device. No one had even asked whether we needed boxes, wanted anything else, or were finished ordering. My boyfriend didn't even finish his beer because at that point the entire vibe had changed and we just wanted to leave. We had driven an hour specifically to try this restaurant and were genuinely excited about it, which made the experience even more disappointing. I completely understand if a server's shift is ending, but there is a professional way to handle that--especially when customers are still actively eating and one person at the table hasn't even ordered yet. Someone could have simply explained that her shift was ending and introduced whoever would be taking over our table. Instead, we were made to feel like we needed to pay and leave. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the experience. We really wanted to like this place, but being treated this way after driving an hour to come here was extremely disappointing and unprofessional.
