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.

The pizza was heated with a crispy crust and topped with fresh basil and Parmesan. The pepperoni was solid. The square pizza was a bit doughy. Spicy vodka sauce and pesto base were tasty.

I grew up in the Santa Cruz area where pizza was basically a weekly staple for our family. However,…read moreI never tried Detroit Style pizzas and was always curious about trying Square Pie Guys; from the reviews online it's highly praised as one of the best pizza spots in SF. I ordered the - Buffalo Wings - How Mushroom The buffalo wings were delicious and although on the pricier side, was just good enough for me to overlook it. It comes with green onions as a garnish with a Bleu cheese dip and carrot sticks. The only negative thing about this was that there wasn't enough carrot sticks. The How mushroom was recommended to me by a staff member and I thought was just a little plain; it was on the more bread side which I'm pretty sure is the standard for Detroit style pizza. In all honesty, I wish there was a bit more toppings to accommodate the amount of bread to topping ratio as this felt more of a cheesy bread sticks from Pizza My Heart. My favorite thing about this place is there were chilled glasses with taps for still water and sparkling water, which was free. In honesty, the sparkling water is an essential need to kill the grease in our meal. Overall, the staff were pretty friendly and helpful during the ordering process, the pizza itself wasn't for me. Would I come again? Only if I'm craving pizza and happen to be in the area.

We ended up getting a large loading dock pizza for 3 people. We had two slices each and had enough for leftovers. I enjoyed their ranch as well!!! There is a good amount of seating in the restaurant! There's also a 21+ seating section in the back for more room too. The service didn't take long as well. So good for sourdough crust!

Cozy and delicious! The pizza is exactly what I like in pizza, thin and with creative flavors…read more Inside, you have tables in an area that is cozy and it's very well decorated. We ordered 2 small pizzas for four people. The only downside is that you can't do half one flavor and half the other. You have to commit. The service is friendly and kind. Would recommend if you can reach consensus on what pizza you want . Some of my friends did say that the meatballs were delicious (I just wanted pizza), and they would have wanted the bottom the pizza to be more toasted. I didn't have that issue so again it's all about preferences. They also, offer non alcoholic beer!

Had an impromptu birthday dinner with some friends here…read more The seating outside was great for six people, and the service was fabulous. Especially given that we were bringing in our own birthday cake to have and share among our friends that night. We got five different pizzas, and the four-cheese one was the fan favorite between us all. Definitely would recommend either a date night here or a night out with friends if you're in the area.

Service was generally polite but a bit sparse given how busy it was. I specifically asked whether the kids' pizzas were small personal sizes or large enough to share, and was told they were personal-sized. Unfortunately, we ended up with more food than we could realistically finish and essentially paid for a pizza that went to waste, which was frustrating. The food itself didn't quite meet expectations based on the reviews. One of our pizzas also came out slightly undercooked, but the kids were too tired for us to send it back and wait for a remake, so we just made do. Overall, the experience was just okay, especially compared to other pizza spots we tried during our trip. After visiting places like Tony's, which we loved, this one fell short for us. The restaurant was busy and had a decent energy, and others may have a better experience depending on timing. For us, though, it's not a place we'd return to.

It was my favorite for 50 years until a couple weeks ago when I ordered a delivery of Gioia. Wow. I stayed over in The City again this past weekend and had Gioia delivered again Saturday. I designed my own pizza with a Margherita Pizza base and then added pepperoni, Calabrian chilis, and anchovy on the side...well done/crispy. The roasted tomatoes are key...depth of flavor, umami-heaven. I'm a pain in the ass, so I call to make sure my pizza is made to spec. The staff, led by Kait, is unparalleled in their willingness to help. I just cannot recommend Gioia enough. I wish there were one in the 925, but Berkeley is as close to my home as a Gioia is based so far. I've not had a pie from Berkeley, but I believe Gioia is completely committed to maintaining the quality of their pizza. Nothing else comes close IMO. I know there's no zealot like a convert...but I'm not just being a fan boy. Oh yeah...the arugula-avocado salad is YUM, and the dressing for it like crack. DO not forget to check the box for utensils. I did not...California is a request the utensils state...and that's how I know how committed Gioia is to customer service: Kait, CALLED ME today after she'd heard I was frustrated. I can't imagine a customer not being thrilled with Gioia.

TLDR: I really wasn't expecting to like this pizza as much…read moreas I did. The crust was thin yet surprisingly crispy, meaning it passed the flop test and had a wonderful undercarriage. Everything about this slice felt fresh, high-quality, and delicious, and it didn't feel overly heavy (though I did feel the need to blot some of the olive oil off the top). JULIAN PIZZA (5/5) I got a slice of the JULIAN, with house-made sausage, kale, and lots of other good stuff. The sausage was some of the best sausage I've had on a pizza, and there was a generous amount of it. The kale seemed like it was fried (possibly naturally in the oven after all that olive oil was drizzled on top) so it added a great textural element. I would 100% come back to try some other flavors.

Out of the couple times I've been, Pepperoni Mushroom has been my favorite slice mostly due to how flavorful it is, followed by Cheese/Plain, then lastly the Julian (red pepper, onion, mushroom) which I found didn't have enough tomato sauce for my liking. My friend tried the Tomato Garlic and didn't like it much, maybe just because there wasn't any tomato sauce.

We ordered the Garden Pizza and the Chicken Garlic Pizza. The Garden Pizza had a light, fresh flavor, and I loved all the vegetables on it. Both pizzas were delicious with thin, wood-fired crusts that were perfectly crisp. For dessert, we shared the lava cake with ice cream, and it was so good! Definitely the perfect way to end the meal. We came on a weeknight around 6:00 p.m. They also do a lot of takeout, so it's clearly a neighborhood favorite. A fun little touch: water is served in repurposed wine bottles. Be sure to check out the secret menu and secret dessert menu displayed inside--you might find something extra to try. I actually picked That's Amore because I attended a Yelp Community event there earlier in the month and was really impressed. That was my first visit, and I knew I wanted to come back. I'm glad I did. Recommend!
