    Slice of Detroit style pizza
    Joel S.

    Accidentally found this place while walking around on Telegraph. Had a slice of Detroit style and it was very good. The sauce had a nice tang to it and the crust a great crunch. It's in a difficult area for parking and not many seats inside.

    Buffalo chicken and pepperoni slice

    Love Temescal, Neighbourhood had this pizza for the first time. There is a separate line to order slices and pizza on the spot or you could order online and pick up in a different door. They had a little bit of seating outside, but no indoor sitting. The employees were super nice and helpful very attentive to the tables to make sure they were clean ready for the next guest. I got a slice of the buffalo chicken and my husband got a slice of the pepperoni. These slices were huge and very tasty. When you're in the neighborhood, definitely stop by and grab a slice. A slice goes for about five dollars.

    More of a take out spot as seating is maybe enough for 10 people total. That said the pizza was yummy!! I liked the stracciatella one a lot as well as the pesto. I would def go again. Service was friendly and they made the smaller pizzas pretty quick.

    Pizza so crunchy, you can easily hear yourself chew. I will be coming back here again for sure because I love Detroit style, and they have some good flavors! Easy for on the go or if you wanna enjoy the sun casually on an outside table watching the passers by.

    Old New Yorkers Enjoying a cheese slice.

    Brought my old New Yorker friends, historian couple w high standards for food. And Pizza Ponte passed the test. They had the cheese. Which Andrea said was the real test of the joint, and it passed, they thought it was good! The service was good! The kind young man offered Andrea spicy ranch, she made a face walking out the door, and I explained - she's a New Yorker, the feller sitting outside heard & chimed in, "You want pineapple w/ that?!?" jokingly as he's also from NY! Haha

    Wow, why haven't I tried this until now!? This is a solid pizza place. I would highly recommend this spot! This pizza is nice and crisp. The toppings are minimal but perfect! It's cool that the place is open late. They got outdoor and indoor seating. They do pizza by the slice and they make sure it's nice and toasty for you. The people are friendly and chill too! You can tell they put in the work!

    Cheese slice and stracciatella slice

    This place has an astonishingly legit array of NY-style slices. I somehow overlooked it for years, and boy do I regret it. The burrata slice! Even the straight cheese slice never fails to satisfy. Not much seating here so you may have to eat it on the run, but it is still worth it.

    Pizza Ponte is a true hidden gem in the East Bay! This is a fast casual spot, you can sit outside or take to go. The service is fast and the staff is very friendly. I got the Sicilian-style pepperoni w/ ricotta cheese and a slice of the green goddess and they were phenomenal. The pizza was perfectly cooked, crispy but not hard. 10/10 will be making this a regular spot.

    Pepperoni, Canadian Bacon, and Bell Pepper Pizza
    Mia B.

    A hidden gem! Decided upon Pizza Ponte in the midst of a late night pizza craving, and it did not disappoint! I am a fan of NY style pizza as is, but I was blown away by the fluffy flavorful crust and mouth-watering presentation. I got a make-your-own pizza with pepperoni, Canadian bacon, and bell peppers, and topped with basil, stringy parmesan and tasty ranch dressing. Enjoyed this delicious mouthful on their cute outdoor seating area on a warm night. Great experience, and I am without a doubt making my way back to Pizza Ponte!

    What a delightful surprise finding this quaint pizza shop in Temescal. We shared 3 slices: Buffalo chicken, green goddess, and square slice with everything. The crust was perfection and both the chicken and green pesto slices were delicious. The pizza also came with a nice smoky sauce in a bottle. I thought that was a nice touch.

    Classic Cheese Pizza, pepperoni pizza
    Michelle N.

    This is our new favorite pizza spot in the east bay! Love that you can get different styles of pizza all at the same place. My favorites are the green goddess NY slice which has a delicious white sauce and lots of garlic. The pepperoni nonna is also delicious but super big and filling so great for sharing. The classic cheese was good but need some more flavor in my opinion (maybe some more sauce). I thought the d-town was too thick and bready so I'd stick to the classic slices and the nonna. If you're looking for a solid slice shop that has nice crispy crust, this is your place. Also get the spicy ranch, trust me.

    Counter to eat
    Toni L.

    What a great place for after 9PM quick bites as they have one of the best pizza by the slice in my opinion. There was a line but it move pretty quickly. I would take about 10 min for the hot from the oven slice to come out. Be sure you have another name if your name are already been used, it was funny when the waitress said pick a new name. It's just a hole in the wall fast food style, with some table outside and a small counter to eat inside. There is a fridge to grab dessert, salad and drink. Overall, I like both the Detroit style as well as the NY pie. The crust was crispy outside yet soft and airy inside. Saude was light, flavor full and the shaved parm was perfect addition. We had the buffalo chicken, pepperoni, green goddess and D town. All were equally good. We will try to order a made our own next time. The tiramisu was also excellent, creamy, not too sweet and perfect texture for the lady fingers. Needless to say we told our family and friends to come and try too.

    Half pepperoni half supreme/combo
    Brad N.

    4.5 stars Some of the better pizza, specifically New York style, in the area. I prefer to stick with the classic pepperoni. The supreme/combo was good but not as good. Maybe a bit too much going on, maybe adds too much moisture and weight. Detroit style was pretty solid too. Worth trying if you don't usually

    Wow, amazing! I've…read morespent decades eating chicken sandwiches. Most are good, and some better than others. Blah blah blah, been-there-done-that. And then I found THIS! KaPOW! It's huge. It's delightfully spicy (at least the one I picked) with a residual heat. I added the special ranch dressing and the etoufee side. BAM! Delicious! Very little seating outside, but it's worth the trouble to wait, eat in the car, or find a table elsewhere. With drink and tip it was about $29. No, not a bargain, but worth it. Outstanding!

    Casual southern spot for fried chicken sandwiches. Don't be afraid to turn up the heat!…read more The menu offers flavorful versions of southern comfort foods. We ordered a chicken sando, the chicken and waffles, and a couple sides -- the greens and etouffee. The sandwich was the clear highlight: moist chicken thigh with a breaded crunch, covered by a thin layer of mayo coleslaw. The light, sweet crunch of the cabbage and carrots gave balance to the dark meat. The waffles were crispy but just soft enough you could wrap them around the chicken to make a sweet sandwich out of that dish too. The server was very friendly when we came. I expressed curiosity about the different heat levels, and he shared nuggets batter d in the medium and hot sauces. He shared our excitement at trying the hot stuff! For the record, the medium is hotter than your typical spicy chicken sandwich and probably a safe go-to. The hot level just cracks "painful" but not unmanageably so -- might be fun as a treat. TBH I was pleasantly surprised by how much flavor each sauce packed -- and how different they were. The medium is especially sweet. Go for the sando. Crank up the heat. It doesn't miss.

    Just read Dominic B's (Yelp CM) review that you were closing your tap room, so rush over!…read more Cut and pasted from their website: "Dokkaebi (도깨비), the mysterious, shape-shifting creatures found throughout Korean folklore." Quality/Quantity - You have been on my list to visit since you opened. I drink your beers in most (if not all) the local Korean Restaurants in the Bay. And at some non Korean restaurants. Today I enjoyed your Chuseok Porter, well a few of them... This by far was my favorite of all the beers I drank and tasted here. Also tasted the following: Dokkaebi IPA - Light and refreshing. Lemongrass Witbier - I can almost taste the lemongrass, another light and refreshing beer. K-Beer - Again, another light and refreshing beer. My daughter had the Calamansi & Tea Lager - This actually had more flavor then all the beers I drank except my porter. Lastly, my daughter noticed the Hazy IPA, Hazy Seoul. But I could not/did not want to drink any more. I guess I might have to rush over again before they close. For our snacks we got: KFC, Korean Fried Chicken - Not as authentic as I would have preferred. Gimmari - Wow, a home run. It helped that I have never had this before! My daughter says we will go to K-Town next time we are in LA and she will introduce me to Korean "street food." Looking forward to it. Atmosphere - Small local brewery. They also own the "kitchen" and storage area next door, see pictures. Metered street parking, but not a problem on a Sunday. And free meter parking on a Sunday. Shared restrooms with the other businesses in the building, you need a key. See pictures. Open 4 days a week (well only for one more week..) from Thursday to Sunday. See Yelp or their website. Service - Counter service, just okay. Price - $44 + tip. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 2020 and here since 2023. I am sorry to hear your tap room is closing, but I do admit it has taken me over a year to visit.... So I understand.

The people here are always extremely welcoming and patient with me as I slowly read through their beer selection. And their beer selection--absolutely amazing. As an Asian-American, I never thought I'd see Kimchi and Yuzu flavors for beer. Obviously, the first time we came here, we had to get flights to try all of their flavors. Whenever I have group events where I have to bring a pack of beer, I always try to bring a pack of dokkaebier :)
