Off a trafficked road and sitting in an almost decayed lot sits this pizza joint. It's well-staffed, the presentation of the pies is decent enough, and there's a rotating menu that changes each day. I tried the La Bruchetta slice and a more generic pepperoni slice. Their pepperoni was greasy, but not overwhelming, though it was pretty densely salted which off set the flavor profile of their sauce. I wouldn't say it was spectacular, though their La Bruchetta was exemplary. The sauce was flavorful, the crust had integrity, and it had a manageable amount of grease. The cheese was thin, as was the crust, but this is what you'd expect if a pizza joint that styles itself after New York. The ambience is typical of a dedicated pizza joint; the seating is a bit plain, not much going on in terms of music, but it's carried by other patrons and their interesting conversations. The staff is polite enough, but you can tell they get overwhelmed by all the patronage they receive, so don't expect to make small talk. Overall, it's a middle of the road experience. The flavors are good, for their specialty pizzas anyway, and the culture surrounding the restaurant is exceptional for a Cali pizza place. Very good for a relatively small college town in the Pacific Northwest. I'd recommend going at least once. read more

You could kill an army of vampires just with the garlic knot... It was absolutely loaded with garlic on the top. Like, just bread with a spoon of minced garlic. It just made everything all soggy and the bread would've been fine on its own had they not put a full spoon of garlic on each piece of bread. Vampires beware!!!! read more

Paul's Live From New York Pizza - Garlic Knots (7) - Pizza Near Me - Arcata, California

Placed a pizza and wings order over the phone, they said pickup in 15-20 but when I got there they hadn't even started so it took another 15-20. Run to pick up dinner took an hour. I asked the cashier multiple times if it was ready but she was spaced out. I finally went back around the counter to ask and it had just been sitting there on the oven getting cold, just a little warm. Horrible service go somewhere else there's so many better options nearby. read more

We ordered our pizza before 8pm for dine in. At 8:30 we asked about our order. The worker had boxed it and just left it there, never calling it out or bringing it to our table where we had our number. Though 2 workers and someone who seemed to be a supervisor or owner were there, no one apologized. At the table we realized it was cold. When we asked if they could heat it, they did so grudgingly. read more

Visiting friends from out of state met here for dinner. Great space to talk and chow down. Individual pizza slices everyone got what they wanted. Wings were plump and sauced up to perfection. Pizza has a nice crust and flavorful sauce. Definitely a place to go back to. read more

Paul's Live From New York Pizza - Bathroom - Pizza Near Me - Arcata, California

We were looking for a place for dinner, while in the area. Someone recommended Paul's and it didn't disappoint. While they had some ready made options, my husband and I opted for a half pepperoni and Sun dried tomatoes and half pepperoni, pineapple and jalapeno. Pizza came out perfect and had that cheese pull you hoped for. We also both had the Avid Blackberry currant cider, which we both loved. We came back the next night for a quick bite before we left after dropping off our son at Humboldt. The seating was ample and clean. The guys behind the counter were very nice and helpful when we asked for suggestions. We will definitely be back when in the area. read more

I LOVE The Brooklin Slices on Wednesdays, I only wish they had them more often. I cant speak to the other slices as honestly if I don't see Brooklin Slices I leave but I LOVE the Brooklyn Slices! If they had them every day this would be a five star review! read more

Sadly, not the best. The garlic knots were undercooked and sone raw dough in places and the pizza became like cardboard as it cooled. Luckily we ate at the restaurant and the first slice while hot was good, the pizza was flavorful but texture of crust definitely not NY pizza. Staff was very friendly but we were disappointed. read more

Went back on 9-17-23. Pizza was much better than our previous visit a year ago. Ordered a Caesar salad, two slices, and garlic knots. Slices and knots came out first which is odd (usually it's salad first). I went to the counter and asked if they could make the salad to go since it was taking a while and also asked if they could put the dressing on the side so it wouldn't get soggy. Well, we finished our meal, our salad was delivered to the table and of course, no dressing on the side so it was soggy by the time we got back to our home. Had to throw it out. Sauce for the garlic knots was ice cold (just out of the refrigerator) and here's a hint...serve warm sauce with knots or mozz stix. It's not rocket science. Overall, the pizza is exactly what I would expect for NY style if I were in NY or NJ. Staff still needs some more training in customer service. read more

Arrived after lunch rush,ordered regular cheese pizza. Usually good, I don't know what happened but the crust was horrible this time. I've been a customer for the whole time they've been open. I don't know what happened today. Red barron frozen would've been a better choice. To expensive to repeat,quality has been declining over the past few years. Not worth the drive from Westhaven anymore. read more

Dang-there are some super haters of this place wth? Our experience was far different. The pizza we ordered was perfectly cooked and everything we hoped it would be. Maybe because we kept it simple and ordered half pepperoni, half cheese is the reason it was so good? The texture was terrific and yes, very similar to getting a slice in NYC at like 2 Bro's, Joe's, Vinny's or 99 cent Pizza etc. The kid was totally sweet who took the order and we drove to pick it up, rather than rely on Door Dash delivery service. Oh-they sell by the slice and the slices are huge w/ tons of options and ready to go. Take a look at their Instagram page, too. I say, ignore the three 1-star reviews and try for yourself. Thanks, Paul's!! read more

Not quite New York Style but good in its own right. Thinner and crispier than most of the slices I enjoyed in NYC when living there for 5 years. I had the OMG (onion, mushroom, and garlic) which was quite good. I washed it down with one of my favorite beers an Elysian Space Dust. read more

The pizza is decent, but I usually stop here when I want a quick slice. I ordered 2 slices of pizza to go and they forgot to give it to me. I'm pretty introverted and don't like to complain, so I waited at the table in front of the cashier hoping they would remember. After about 35 mins, I realized they forgot about me. I got back in line and asked for my slices. The pizza had been ready for a while since my slices were barley still warm. The cashier gave an unsincere apology too. Next time I'll go to Dutchy's. read more

Customer service is fine, but pizza tastes pretty bad. I have a better experience eating little caesars or high school pizza. The dough is not crispy at all almost like it's undercooked. Tastes like there is no seasonings in the dough, sauce, or on top. All toppings undercooked. Stomach hurts now. All around strange experience. Very odd that I've seen people rave about this place a lot, but then again Humboldt county has pretty low standards and lots of bad food and if you never lived anywhere else you wouldn't know any different. It was $30 for a medium pizza with 5 toppings and is really low quality. Added 20 mins after review: stomach hurts worse, I feeling hot and sweaty and I have diarrhea. I already planned on never eating here again, but this definitely solidifies it. read more

Paul's Live From New York Pizza - Toppings poorly placed and undercooked - Pizza Near Me - Arcata, California

We're big fans of the Paul's location in Eureka so we decided to order delivery from this location. That was apparently a bad idea since this location gave us the absolute worse pizza imaginable. The pizza was soaked to the point of being a sponge like texture. There were so many toppings that were barely cooked and the water content was simply too much for the crust to handle. On top of that, some ingredients were missing while others seemed to have randomly been added (such as dry gyro meat on a NY Combo with salami missing). It was straight up gross and I couldn't even finish a single piece of a $40 pizza. It was extremely disappointing and not at all like my experiences at Paul's in Eureka. Maybe more training or something, but I recommend if you're looking for a true NY pie to heat to the Eureka location instead. read more

Absolutely my sisters' favorite pizza place. If you like thin crunchy pizza crust Paul's is the place to get it. I'm more of a fluffy pizza crust guy, but I've never had a pizza from Paul's I didn't enjoy. read more

I've had many Sicilian pizzas before and this is hands down the worst pizza I have ever eaten. Absolutely disgusting pre cooked and reheated dough that tastes and feels like literal cardboard. I should have just flushed my $50 down the toilet because this is just gross. My 2 year old doesn't even want to eat it and that says a lot. Gross gross gross. Should be ashamed calling this a "New York" style pizza read more

So good! The prices weren't too bad considering how BIG the portions are. The slices are about the size of 1/4 of a whole pizza. (Literally) We also got an order of bbq wings and garlic knots and they were delicious but nothing amazing. But their cannolis... I don't know another place in Humboldt that has these but it had been so long since I had one and this definitely hit the spot. read more

Flaming Garbage . My Garlic Knots were saturated in oil, so bad to the point I had to dry them to even try to eat them. Got the Buffalo Chicken Pizza and it was flooded with cheese, hardly any chicken and the onions were hardly cooked. I couldn't tell if they just threw the onions on after it was cooked or before. Disgusting food, do not go here please. You'll thank me later. Go to papa Murphy's, much better also the knots were not even cooked all the way through, and still smelled and looked like raw flour read more

I consider myself picky when it comes to beer and pizza. Its a combo you can find just about anywhere, but this place does it right. Happy hour every day from 2-4pm gets you 3-4 dollar pints, and you can order by the slice. Slices are larger than Costco slices, so for about $10 plus tip you get yourself a brew and slice. Can't beat that. Plus the pizza is tasty, ingredients are fresh, and the service has been great every time. The crust is thinner than most and has a crunch to it. There's everything from buffalo, bbq, and even pesto pizzas. Something for every palate. read more
