I am really surprised to write this, because every experience I have had has been a good experience. Maybe this was just an "off" today. Nothing went right and I was there for almost 25 minutes waiting for a small pizza and salad. I want to stress that the employees were very cordial, but they seemed distracted and kept making mistakes, and were wandering around really slowly. Not the experience I expected or had previously experienced. I am not sure I will go back. It would be for a variety of reasons, but I think establishments need to realize that every day is a day that you might be giving a first impression. Get it together. Stay alert and look like you care about what you are doing. It will carry over to whatever you do after you leave Mod Pizza. And I can guarantee that if you cannot be your best at Mod Pizza, chances are you will will not be your best at another job. Just sayin. Every job is an opportunity to be a good employee and make sure the customer is happy. I was in the service industry for many years and it served me well for my future. But I gave it my all, every single day. Again, it might have been an off day. And the employees were very friendly. Just really scattered! I wanted to get in and get out, and I ended up feeling very drained by the time I left. I hope you find this helpful and not derogatory. My wish for anyone is to continue to find ways to better yourself and be the best you can be, whatever you are doing. read more

My husband ordered through Door Dash, when my pizza showed up it was missing half of the ingredients. We called and explained the situation to to the help line and a new order was placed. Upon arriving to the store, I explained the situation to the gentleman behind the finish touches counter and he pulled up the order and started making the pizza. He offered a refreshment, which I appreciate but turned down. At the end he showed me the complete pizza, and it was a world of a difference! He topped the box off with two ranch dressing cups and two No Name Cakes. Went in unhappy and came out very satisfied. Thank you. read more

Located at Southshore next to Chipotle. Great thin crust pizza. I think they have better veggies than Pieology but I think Pieology has better quality meats. Love the staff here, they're always happy to help. Don't be afraid to ask for more toppings if they don't fill the pizza all the way. I've had a new guy give me one handful of cheese, and the supervisor had him give me more. More seasoned staff are always mind readers! read more

MOD Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

I love pizza! I've noticed this location only recently even though its been at South Shore about a year now, I've had Blaze and Pie-ology and both are decent in a pinch. I am particularly not a fan of chain or commercial restaurants but it can be hard to avoid such places when out shopping with family, it's always affordable. I don't frequent any of those places too often but MOD can be the exception, they have great fresh ingredients, they offer chicken sausage and not just dry chicken breast as a white meat option. The flavors mesh well together, all parts of these pizzas are good - delicious sauce doesn't overpower the thin crust and no matter how many veggie toppings I get the price stays the same and most importantly the bottom does not get soggy! I love that they offer fresh basil, garlic oil, multiple types of peppers and ricotta. I will add that the first time I went one of my bell peppers had a small piece of the sticker on it which I pointed out to the guy who packed it up for me and he apologized profusely and offered to replace it, since the sticker isn't poison I just pointed it out to him and told him it didn't need to be replaced and he still gave me the next pizza on the house. I'm a fan of fresh sugar free and cane-sugar drinks (especially tea), I love that they offer delicious fruity flavors of house-made tea and lemonade. I've finally found a "build-your-own" place that I love (other than the fro-yo store), my sisters have such differing tastes that sharing one big pizza never works for us, MOD is now where we go when in the mood for pizza. read more

MOD Pizza hovers around a 3.5 for me, but I will round up its Yelp rating to 4 stars. In terms of taste, I would actually make the trek to Pieology in Berkeley for better tasting customizable pizza. The overall atmosphere of MOD felt quite chaotic, maybe because there are more families dining here? When ordering, there are 10 classic MOD pizzas to choose from or you can create your own. I decided to try their "Caspian" which is essentially a bbq chicken pizza although I omitted the gorgonzola cheese. I added some bell peppers and roasted garlic. Thinking back, I feel like MOD pizza should revise their ordering system to include a paper check off list where customers can hand off their order instead of telling the employees what they want. I mention this because there was a slight confusion when I got my pizza because for some reason, my pizza was for "Nancy". Everything was straightened out in the end, but I felt like the employees are not that organized and are rushing through their orders. As mentioned earlier, the taste is not on par with Pieology. The Caspian was way too sweet with the bbq sauce and I felt that MOD pizza was not as generous with their toppings compared to Pieology. The crust is also a bit too thin. Perhaps I should have gotten the double crust. Overall, the pizza still tasted good and is super affordable option if you are hungry in the South Shore Area. read more

MOD Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

This is a late review. I've come here a couple times with my partner for lunch and the pizza and service is always good. My partner and is co-worker frequent it a couple of times per week and Krystal always greets them with a "Hi Nancy and Hi Al" and already knows what their going to order. Of course this is a customize your pizza and salad place so she just hovers over the ingredients until we pick our toppings. You'd think that a customized pizza will take too long for a quick lunch but it's ready in no time. Knowing that your going to get great personal service is a reason to keep coming back--well the pizza is pretty good too. read more

It would be a 5 but it's a 4, which I'm changing from my 1 star. Let me tell you why...Because of the one manager for listening and understanding my complaint and concern with my unsatisfactory with the service I was provided...he earned them a 4 star and he need a raise! I recently went through the website to order a pizza and the delivery was HORRIBLE. I understand that COVID precautions are in place but (1) my order was missing one item (2)my pizza was placed outside of my apartment building in spider webs on the ground (3) the door dash delivery person didn't seem to care any (4) ALAMEDA store does not answer their phone so I can get a refund, ALL OTHER STORES ANSWER THEIR PHONES and I have been calling them for 30 minutes now. I now have to go directly to the store to address my issue. I finally received a response from the complaint I made in their website and they said they will be addressing the situation. I hope so! read more

MOD Pizza - Forgot to take a pic of the whole pizza because it was just too good! So here's a pic before I devoured the last piece. - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

I was disappointed with my experience here. The 2 stars is for the fact that the food was decent and the price was very reasonable. The reason for the low rating is because: 1. None of the tables were clean and no one wiped any down during the 1 hour plus we were there. I wiped down my own table. 2. They ran out of disposable utensils at 5pm. 3. The soda area was not clean. No one checked to clean, replenish cups, other items. The container for the cups was not clean. 4. None of the garage bins were emptied, especially the one by the soda area, which was overflowing. 5. Staff had a mask on but two of the had their entire nose exposed. Makes me wonder what goes into my food if they are not careful with masks. They also kept touching their masks, then the preparation tools, etc. There were 5 people on staff, very small stream of customers and they were chatting and not checking on the place. The seevice was ok, but staff didnt know where things were when asked. The bathroom was also out of toilet paper and not very clean. I would be more forgiving if they had a long line of customers and was extremely busy. Unfortunately, they weren't and the place just didnt look like a clean and welcoming eatery. read more

I visit this location from time to time with my family for the convenience of the location and we like the build your own pizza option when dining out. The service has always left a LOT to be desired, but our most recent visit this weekend took the cake. As mentioned the service is always subpar, but it seemed that on Saturday night two of the women working were in incredibly bad moods, didn't want to be at work, or simply could care less about their jobs-it's clear that there certainly not interested in keeping them with the behavior that they exhibited. While in line waiting to order, one of the employees either recognized me from a previous visit (that's the only reason I would presume that she looked frustrated/upset) or she was unhappy that there were a number of people in line because there was a lot of unnecessary eye rolling, unwarranted attitude, and obvious exasperation. When it was my turn to order, a different woman took over the line and asked what I was ordering. I told her the Isaac and that I would be adding to it, the other pizza was a build your own. She began hastily making the Isaac in an absolute fury customers without much care and listening to what I needed and when I began telling her the items that I wanted to add to it she began sighing heavily, rolling her eyes, and asked me with a lot of attitude 'what else I wanted to add'. I then asked her if my adding to the pizza was an issue because she was so rushed and she seemed to fall back in line pretty quickly. She then began doing something else and the aforementioned young lady began working on the build your own pizza but quickly became irritated when she realized that there were instructions other than the red sauce and very LOUDLY with bass and annoyance in her voice asked what kind of cheese we wanted. After that exchange a gentleman took over in making the rest of the pizza and (thankfully) didn't exhibit any of the behaviors of his colleagues. While we were waiting for the pizzas to cook and after we had paid, while the loud woman who was maddened about the cheese was re-stocking the toppings station (she wasn't wearing gloves) she proceeded to pull out her cellphone and had a full conversation while doing so. I can only assume that perhaps they were close to getting off from work, though the store wasn't scheduled to close for another few hours and perhaps that's why there was a rush to make the pizzas and they were frustrated at customers continuing to come in. But, as mentioned I've encountered subpar service from the individuals before so perhaps that's just there daily work ethic. It certainly seems to be the common thread on Yelp. As if the service from the two women wasn't bad enough, the guy (a different gentleman then the one that finished making our order) that boxed our food barely called us over, proceeded to forget to offer to add the sauce dollops, basil and vinaigrette that goes on the Isaac after it has been cooked. When I asked him about it, HE also had an attitude about being asked to do his job. Clearly, I don't intend to make any additional visits to this restaurant location even if it is super convenient. Unless another location is somehow better in terms of food and service, I probably won't be making anymore visits overall. read more

This place is amazing! I've only been coming here for a few months but I can tell you this place is really good! As well as the food being ready in seconds, you get to watch them make the pizza as you order it! And to top it off, they serve "no name cakes". (Which I think they actually deserve a name.) They're essentially slices of chocolate cake with frosting in the middle and a chocolate crust! read more

It was my first time at this mod Pizza and I was to delightful of how nice and good manners the people that work her have. For sure my number 1 place to go again and will highly recommend again they are very clean and fast , read more

Yes, It's a Chipotle for pizza - in the sense you build your own. Comparable to Pieology. Great value. Personally, the MOD size can cover 2 meals. Plus, there's no limit on toppings! Do love thin crust but I wish the crust was slightly thicker. At points, I felt like the dough wasn't strong enough to hold up my toppings. Great option if you're hungry and near South Shore. read more

MOD Pizza - DIY pizzas! the garlic sticks is the smallest pizza dough option with garlic sauce on top. - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

This Sunday afternoon, I decided try out my own customized pizza. After grocery shopping at Joes hella people but I got my wine and coconut milk for pudding. Anyway! I am hungry. Walked there and it's at the corner. The young girl with headband smiled at me and was kind. The African girl in the back heating the pizza had a attitude. I went to pick up my pizza ask for a box, I smiled "thank you" she was like a frozen b!tch. I was debating if I should tip 1$ off my debit though the African dude at the register was polite and gave me a goodbye. (Ofc I did) The pizza!!! I am lil disappointed. I was hungry so ate half. This ain't pizza to me. ingredients are def fresh love the mushroom. I ate it off my fingers and damn dusk! I don't feel okay eating it. Consuming along with the black stuff...feel sorry for myself. It's basically like meats n veggies pancake. They are not glued btw so the concept didn't work for me. However I am mostly all about the service. It's me personally. I had been in the food industry for nearly 5 years, Panda Express;; museum cafe;; now in catering events pretty much I can tell what's a fake and a not trying service. I am deep into it. 40%Might come again or better off crunching my Trader Joe's 1.99 popcorn read more

MOD Pizza - Mine customized "pizza" - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

Love mods pizza! So delicious and great selection for toppings Tiffany was super helpful and patient in helping me create my pizza Will come again! 5 stars! read more

Fast, fresh, and fabulous Love at first bite. Crust is super thin, crisp, and delicious. It's like Subway for pizza but, much better. You choose your crust size and the toppings. Soooo many toppings to choose from. Or if you are not that adventurous to create your own, you can choose a pizza from their menu. My pizza cost under $9 each. Ordered "Jasper" and a personalized pizza. Loved it so much that I went back in line and ordered 2 more; "Caspian" and "Tyler". All 4 pizzas were delicious. Best part was that it cooked so quick. Seriously I've waited longer at In 'n Out for my burger. Can't wait to come here again. I love this place. read more

Fast, great tasting, and a solid addition to the other chain restaurants of South Shore Center, MOD pizza is the subway of pizza chains. You can pretty much have it your way. The mod pizza is an 11 inch thin pizza crust that gets baked extremely fast in an extremely hot oven. Just like pieology and blaze pizza, you get to pick what toppings you want on your pizza for no extra charge. The 11 inch pizza is about 8 bucks and for what you get, it's a pretty good value if you're trying to just get a pizza for one (or maybe even two) For just opening up this week, this location has super friendly employees, and i could definitely see myself being a regular here. They also offer a number of pizzas on the menu if you don't feel like picking and choosing your toppings. Be sure to try the lemonade here too, it's amazing especially with a splash of lemon lime soda. read more

MOD Pizza - Custom made pizza with some red sauce on the side - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

I'm not a big fan of pizza in general (the taste rarely outweighs the caloric intake) but this place is outstanding! You get to choose as many toppings as you like, and choose which ones go into the oven and which ones go fresh! Ms. Tatiana at this location helped us design our pizza and we left feeling thrilled about our meal and a little wiser about the art of topping a pizza :) You got some skills, T! Pro tip: add fresh arugula and drizzle pesto sauce after the pizza is done! read more

Mod Pizza has been around. finally tasted one, yummy for the most part, the other part. dead space where neither sauces nor toppings existed. just naked crunch of pizza. 9 speciality pizza to choose from or u made ur own. sizes: mini (5") ,,mod (11"-8.27) or mega(double 11') drill: order, pay, wait for name to be called... eats:tristan (mozzarella, asiago, mushrooms, red roasted peppers, pesto drizzle.) -peppers not tasted, pesto not enough, too little toppings. -would drop peppers, add red onions, more drizzle, even out asiago -crust cross between brick oven and thicker crust, needs more toppings/and or cheese. take outs: -no place to wait to lakeouts. tables fill up fast when 10 people show up. -partially fulfilling, a few crumbs better than peiology. -drinks, beers, salads goes at market rate... , . read more

MOD pizza is great if you are picky and/or love unlimited toppings. My fiancé and I tried this location out last night. We've been to several different type of BYO pizza places (pieology, blaze, pizza 900, etc) and this is definitely one of the top ones we've been to. One plus is that they have different sizes you can choose from! Something you don't normally see at these type of pizza joints. I ordered the Lucy Sunshine which comes with garlic, mozzarella, artichokes, & red sauce dollops. I added chicken for extra protein! My fiancé got the mad dog which I believe a standard meat pizza and he added spinach on top. While we did order pizza that's right off their menu, you totally have the option to build your own. The pizzas were hot and crispy and the cheese was gooey! The service was awesome and it was pretty quick! I also appreciate the cane sugars soda options in the bottles (we tried the ginger ale) and the slushy ice in the soda machine. We'll definitely be back. read more

It was just okay. We had the restaurant deliver and they sent the wrong drink (said they were out of sprit and just substituted coke without checking). The driver seemed to sit for a long time in transit and the pizza was cold, but it was delivery so I'll let that slide and used the microwave to reheat. read more

This pizza is surprisingly good. They have perfected a great thin crust and their pizza toppings/ingredients for salads are always fresh. Also, seriously the No Name Cakes contribute to a named problem: obesity. They are so good! The fact that they allow unlimited toppings for the se price is such a great business model. I appreciate MOD Pizza. No pizza snobbery up in here! read more

If you've never experience personalized pizza this is the place. There are a few other chains but I think this one is the best. Mod can produce a decent salad whereas the others are pretty much just pizza. Love the "Caramelized Pear Iced Tea"... you have have to use your imagination to taste the pear part but it does have a mild fruity after taste. I'm a fan of the "MOD Pizza Salad" but it can be improved. They take an Asiago crust with cheese on it and heat it up. You pick your salad options and meats and they put that on top after the crust is warm. The only problem is that they don't heat any of the meats up because it's in the salad already. Chicken and Salami taste great cold but certain meats like the sausage and ground beef don't taste good cold with congealed fat. read more

First time ordering. Ordered cheese pizza delivered. Mediocre quality and extremely stingy amount of cheese. They should be ashamed.

Delicious, fast, fresh and kid friendly. Beer and wine on tap too! What more can a family ask for read more

Honestly places like MOD are great especially because they don't charge you for any extra toppings and the pizzas are delish! You have the choice of customizing your own pizza or choosing the pre-customed ones they have, but everything is made to order. This place would be great for a group kiddos as well since kids usually have different preferences. read more

Pizzas are always tasty and ready to go at curbside pickups. I highly recommend this establishment because it never gets me sick, like other places. I have a tentative stomach. read more

I used to live near a Blaze pizza and always do a build your own. So sad that I had to move and didn't live close by one anymore. I was excited to find out that MOD pizza had a similar method like Blaze. They offer a lot of toppings for you to choose from. I also like that they have different pizza sizes too because blaze only offers one size and sometimes I don't want to eat that much pizza. It's located in the south shore plaza and I always go around the other shops around there as well or go grocery shopping at Trader Joe's and Safeway. It has a huge parking lot, so you never have to worry about finding parking. It's a convenient and chill place to go to when you're off and just want to hang with friends or family! read more

Excellent service and good. Very quick pizzas that are delicious! -got the pizza salad and I'm addicted! The bake Asiago cheese onto their pizza crust and you get to build your salad and put it on top of the pizza and it's amazing. I got mixed greens with arugula and roasted kale, artichokes, garbanzo beans, chicken, salami, olives, feta cheese with. Balsamic dressing! Yummy! - I tried pizza with their white sauce and loved it as it was the perfect amount of garlic and not greasy or rich You can't go wrong with anything you try! They also have fancy flavored ice tea. It's a must try! read more

MOD Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

We accidentally stumbled across this place while in search of a Jamba Juice, and ooohhhh boy! We are sure glad we did! It's like subway, but for pizza! Pic as many toppings as you want! No extra charges!!! Great service too! Staff was amazing! Wish I had more cash in me for a larger tip. Next time! read more

There were five employees in the restaurant when I got there. Three of them were seated at tables eating, one was in the back somewhere, and the fifth was the only person working. She was also the youngest in the restaurant; it seemed like everyone was just taking advantage of the situation and not working. Very frustrating. read more

Quick, easy, healthy, and like their philosophy states, you get what you want on the pizzas! I live right next door so ordering and pick up is a cinch. The ingredients taste fresh, and the toppings are just the right amount---plenty like I like it, but not so much that it gets too soggy. I also like mine with lots of veggies, but don't like them raw, so I always ask for OVERCOOKED so that everything turns out perfect! One more star added if they had larger sizes. read more

First off as a fast food pizza place it is very good and you should check it out. I have had this debate with many people. Pieology, blaze, or Mod. I have to say blaze has a special spot in my heart but its the furthest from work and home so it shows i must not love it that much more. The gluten free crust is not good at Mod, but for the other pies it is comparable to the other two. Advice - Do not order a pre-configured pizza, build it yourself you get WAY more topping. read more

I've been to this Mod about 7 times since it's close to the job. I have to say, up until today the staff has been pretty dry in the customer service dept although food has always lived upto my expectations. Well today I was greeted with a big hello and welcome from James. He was awesome, he made me and my coworkers laugh and made us feel welcomed. Thanks James! I hope your employer appreciates you! read more

MOD Pizza - Pizza salad and a no name cake - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

Really love the flavor of this place, once we found the pizza combo we all liked. However, once we got our pizza and the crust was burnt on all of them (black and crunchy on bottom), every other time we keep getting raw, gummy, undercooked pizza dough. The first time it happened I called, and one of the managers (Josh? John?) was really nice about it, apologized and said they would make up for the 3 undercooked pizzas on our next visit. He wouldn't collect my name, he said to just mention his name. Well we went back in to get the replacement pizzas and they wouldn't honor them. We ended up paying for them out of pocket - just for them to be raw again. If it weren't for this issue, my family would have a great place to get pizza in Alameda. read more

I love their cauliflower crust pizza! I came in yesterday and my pizza was on the house! That was super kind of them! They fix your pizza how you want it and have quick friendly service! Also, their "no name cake" is pretty yummy. I'll def be coming back more often! read more

I've only been to one other place that has the DIY pizza concept and found it awesome, so I was excited to see that MOD opened up in Alameda! You have the option of either picking one of their signature pizzas or you can build your own. All toppings are included in the price! There's 3 different pizza sizes: Mini, Mod, and Mega. There's a ton of variety with the toppings, so it's all up to you to build a delicious pizza! You pay at the register and they'll call your name when your pizza is ready. The crust is thin, but can still hold the weight of a lot of toppings without getting soggy. Worth checking out if you're in the area! read more

MOD Pizza - 2 BYO pizzas - Pizza Near Me - Alameda, California

Generally like the pizza here but a recent visit was quite bothersome. The friendly staff took my order and I stepped aside after paying for it. While waiting for the pizza, I observed a total of 8 employees working at this location. All employees were wearing gloves while handling food except for one female. The female worked at various positions but at one point, started handling the cooking of the pizza. Occasionally, while reaching for the pizza, I can see her using her BARE HANDS to touch various pizzas to see if they were either cooked, or to remove foreign material from the oven. This is absolutely disgusting! There is no reason to handle food in that way, in plain view in front of other customers! Contacted corporate and they didn't say much other than they'll have their regional folks talk to the store. Not very comforting! Needless to say I won't be coming back. read more
