This is strictly for the take out service. Cannot speak for the in dining experience. I ordered take out and went to the restaurant to pick it up. I gave the hostess my name, she said "its not ready yet" I sat down and waited an additional 20 min past the pick up time, and finally asked for an update and saw that my order had been waiting with my name on it with other pizzas waiting to be picked up. Mind you I had my 2 toddlers with me and they were restless already waiting. I left without paying. As it turns out it was already ready when I first walked in but the hostess failed to check the take out/doordash boxes for my name. Anyone who would pay to eat cold pizza??..... NOT ME Sorry but the whole point of take out is simplicity , it should not be this hard to check for if an order is ready. read more

Pizzalina - Fried Chicken with Honey Dipping Sauce - Pizza Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Found this place for delivery and was pleasantly surprised! Great looking menu with lots of food options and house made pastas. We ordered a couple square pizzas and the monthly special pizza, all were delicious, lasted the delivery, and still tasted fresh! The gnocchi was so soft and the salad had pizza dough croutons! I'm looking forward to trying it in person and visiting the restaurant! read more

I had lunch at Pizzalina and it was excellent! The slice of Sausage Pizza was the best I've had and the service was excellent!

Tried the fungi pizza and added sausage. It was good a little too salty but manageable. A medium was plenty to have left overs. Ordered to go and appreciate that the to go orders have a sticker on the box to keep it shut. It's truly the details that matter. read more

This is not your ordinary pizza place, but a cool hang out spot with other great food besides pizza. Located tucked in a corner of a strip mall, there's ample parking and plenty of seating. Their pizzas are fantastic. Unlike others, Pizzalina pizza are not greasy nor overbaked to extra crispy; they had the right amount of toppings. But, I will say I was more impressed with their chicken wings and brussels sprouts; both very addicting. read more

Never even knew this restaurant was here. So happy we found this place. It's a cute restaurant with lots of space. We've actually visited it twice now within the last 2-3 weeks. Just wanted to try the other stuff they had in their menu. So far we love their square pizzas. The crust is amazing. We tried the regular round pizza but not a fan. The crust was kinda too thin and kinda hard. The bulgogi pasta was just ok, not a lot of flavor. The staff is super friendly. Food came out at a timely matter. Lots of parking too. read more

I stopped by for lunch to enjoy a $6 slice of Burrata pie. The crust was crispy and the pizza sauce was not sweet, not tart; just right. I did pair it with the best comforting cup of minestrone soup I have ever tasted. It hit the spot on this chilly Fall weather and it even tempted the guy next to me to order a bowl. The hand-made Arnold Palmer was refreshing and good with my meal. I will return to try a pasta dish/Autumn Salad. The service at the bar was exceptional! And ambiance was quiet. read more

Beautiful spring day. I was in the mood for a pizza and beer outdoors. This spot was perfect. I was seated outside and ordered the thin crust TAVERN-STYLE SAUSAGE + GIARDINERA PIZZA and the smoked mozzarella sticks with house made ranch and marinara. Paired with a light lager, it was the perfect Spring Day lunch! The pizza was super thin crusted, to the point of crispy. The mozzarella sticks were nicely fried and not heavily breaded. Our server was Rob and he was super cool, friendly and helpful. Everything he recommended was superb! read more

The pizza wasn't anything different and one major and important complaint was the customer service. Pizza - I ordered the Salsiccia and the sausage was really good. I'd give the pizza a 8.5/10 review Kids pasta - just regular spaghetti noodles and something you can make at home. 6/10 review Customer Service - I usually don't complain and still left a decent tip. I think it's what bothered me was when I was ordering, the waiter's attention was someplace else and made me feel unimportant. Also, I only ordered 3 items and 1 of the items, the kids pasta, was never placed so we had to wait after we were almost done with our pizza. I did talk to one waiter who was super nice and if not for him, I may have given a worse review. 5/10 review Like I said earlier, I normally don't write complaints about Customer service and I felt like this was needed. I was excited to visit this restaurant because I heard good things about it and hoping my next experience with them will be better! read more

This is a great pizza place. We order a cheese pizza, pepperoni pizza, Caesar salad, and a wedge salad to go. The pizza had a nice flavor and a pretty good crust. The salads were both very tasty with great dressings and toppings. The service was excellent. I will be back to try more things on their menu. read more

Mozzarella sticks..IYKYK...but if you don't, now's the moment to have a nostalgic mozza stick experience. And I must say, everything about it was everything I wanted and more. I'm a huge mozzarella stick fan ~ it's always been one of my favorite apps and through adulthood, it's just not something I gravitate towards on a menu anymore. But Pizzalina's mozzie sticks are to put it simply..out of this world. And yes, deserve two paragraphs or more. The cheese is a smoked mozz, and comes with tomato sauce and a house-made ranch. Truly chef's kiss. Unfortunately no photos can be found from me, just memory. Thankfully others have snapped some on Yelp. The Caesarlina Salad was deliciously crisp and fresh ~ loved the creamy dressing. We ordered a kids pasta with Alfredo sauce and quite honestly..we wanted to order a second bowl for the table because it was that good! The pasta is house-made too (you can sub gluten-free penne made with quinoa flour, fyi). Would love to come back to try any of the pasta dishes including the short rib ravioli, rigatoni and vodka sauce, or even the spaghetti and meatballs. Another win. To end off the meal, the Tavern-style Sausage and Giardinera Pizza was delicious and so different! Now this is a thin and crispy square-cut pizza or as the fam likes to say, a 'bar pie', but packed with flavor. Sausage, mozz-provolone cheese blend, tomato sauce, pickled local veggies. A definite must-try if you enjoy those ingredients, and something that seems very special and unique to this restaurant. Pizza-wise they offer other red based pies, white sauce pies, create your own pizzas, squared pies, and more. Would love to come back and try more from the menu, a local brew from their awesome drink menu, or perhaps a glass of one of their wines on tap/cocktail, and the froyo which seems to always be a table pleaser. All in all, absolutely loved this neighborhood spot tucked away in a shopping center on Treat Blvd. It's fun, lively, fair pricing, great staff, and has a little something for everyone on the menu. Also multiple TV's for sports was a huge win for our fam too. Yum! read more

Pizzalina - Tavern-Style Sausage + Giardinera Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

We were hoping to end our weekend with a good Italian-style pizza, so we ordered takeout from this new pizza place on Sunday night. Unfortunately, the pizza we received was extremely overcooked, with large portions of the crust burnt and bitter tasting. The texture and flavor were nothing like the authentic Italian-style pizza we were expecting. It was disappointing, especially for a first experience. Based on this order, we wouldn't choose to order from here again. read more

Pizzalina - Pizza Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

Was looking for by-the-slice pizza places in the area and just figured to stop in at Pizzalina for take-out. The line leading in and bustling kitchen were all great signs! The hostess gave great recommendations on pizzas and appetizers and ended up order the Columbus and Summer Salad. Summer Salad was totally up my alley! Butter lettuce, peaches, corn, shaved radish, pickled onion, pumpkin seeds, ancient grain farro, sonoma goat cheese, champagne vinaigrette. Totally delicious, fresh, bright and really screams summer. Highly recommend this one! The Columbus was a tavern style pizza with ezzo cup-n-char pepperoni, pickled red fresno peppers, bianco di napoli tomato sauce, hot honey. Love the cuppy pepperoni and the super thin, crust. I didn't find it exactly to be crispy, but definitely helped myself to more than one slice because of the thin, light crust. Totally foldable, btw and no sag. I thought the pizza was good, good amount of sauce and you get a bit of heat and some sweetness. Was it the better pizzas I've had? Not quite, it did leave a lot to be desired and thought it could even use a bit more pepperoni. In retrospect, I should've went either veg or meat leaning but this was recommended to be a popular one. Price point seemed a bit steep, about $55 for salad, pizza and a can of soda. Service was great and had urgency, which is something you don't find much nowadays. From ordering and into my hands, out the door was about 20 min. Efficient and speedy service! read more

We were sat down rather quickly, however service here on out was a bit slow. There seemed to be a mix up as we had already ordered and another service came to apologize and didn't know we had already been helped. I loved the salad. The pizza was good. Soft doughy with good flavor. I'd like to try another flavor next time as it just didn't seem quite balanced. The restaurant is nice, good ambience, clean. Staff was apologetic for slow service. I would give it another try. Maybe just an off night. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for a while. My aunt's Chicagoan partner highly recommended this place as there's really not many restaurants that make the tavern style pizza. We ordered a tavern style pizza and asked for it to be crispy and dry with sausage and pepperoni. It's so good we ordered one to go! We also had the caesar salad and rigatoni pasta. The star of the show is the tavern style pizza, which is well known in Chicago but hard to find in California. Service was very friendly as well. read more

So we went there for dinner, let's start off with saying the food was absolutely delicious. The drinks were hella good especially the hard ice tea.

Really good pizza in a modern, lively setting. We've visited a couple times and had take out as well. Pizza is very good and they offer a few styles. The gluten free deep dish is one of the best GF options we've found in the area if you need to avoid wheat. Traditional pizza is really good too, we've sampled the deep dish, thin crust and a tavern style that was super thin. They know their stuff. Service is always friendly and efficient. read more

This is our go to for pizza. We always love the pizza of the month - along with the Columbus. The smoked Mozzerella sticks and Caesar salad are also amazing. Fantastic beer and wine list as well. read more

We planned to try Pizzalina after hiking to the Mt. Diablo summit. Coming in with big appetites and a craving for pizza, Pizzalina did not disappoint! We decided to try an original pie and a "squared" pizza, to try out both styles. We got the original pie, with grana padano and pecorino romano cheese, aged mozzarella, garlic oil, fresh basil and Sicilian oregano; and the forest "squared" pie with roasted mushrooms, sauteed spinach, garlic cream, and shaved red onion. The original pie came out first and looked absolutely beautiful, topped with basil and pecorino romano cheese. The tomato sauce had a wonderful, vibrant and fresh flavor and the undercarriage was cooked super well so that the pizza had zero sag and was incredibly crunchy and crispy. The forest squared pie was also quite nice! I have had Detroit style and other square pie styles, but nothing quite like the Sicilian-inspired square pizza served here, which almost seemed to be cooked on a focaccia bread. Although this pizza looked bigger and larger than the round style pie, it was incredibly light and crispy, and the veggie toppings on the pizza really shined. Both of these pizzas were phenomenal and paired with each other nicely. Unfortunately, I live in San Francisco, so I'm not sure the next time I'll be back but would definitely come here again the next time I am in Walnut Creek! read more

Amazing food, baffling management! Pizzalina, you have so much potential. Truly, The food is fantastic, good enough that we've now visited twice despite the fact that your service feels like it's being run by someone in slow motion. Visit #1: We sat at the bar. The restaurant was busy, yes, but the person assisting the bar (who looked very much like the manager) absolutely was not. Slow to take orders, slow to acknowledge anyone, slow to move... Servers were racing around the restaurant trying to keep up, while he just stood behind the bar. But again, food was incredible, so we gave it another chance. Visit #2: We came to celebrate my nephew's birthday, and wow... consistency really is Pizzalina's strong suit, because that manager still didn't move. The restaurant was busy, and the servers were running around doing their best while getting zero help from the person who should be leading them (the manager). Our server wasn't great either, but honestly, how much can we blame her when she's essentially working solo? My dad orders a create-your-own pizza and asks for fresh tomato slices. The server tells us they don't have tomatoes because everything is canned or frozen and they "don't use fresh ingredients." Uhhh... what? We asked for a beer pitcher three times , from three different staff members. When we checked in with our server, she said, "Yeah, I'm still waiting for it too." Guess who's in charge of pouring beers? Yep. The manager who refuses to step out of the bar. I even tried waving him down at one point; he saw me, then looked away. Well that pitcher made it to us after we finished our pizza. The food is STILL delicious. The kitchen clearly knows what they're doing. Whoever is developing recipes and cooking back there deserves all the praise. Owners, if you're reading this: Please review your surveillance footage. You will very quickly understand the problem. Your manager literally does not move, does not greet anyone, and does not support the team in any way. The staff is drowning while he's... standing. Re-train him, replace him, anything because the food deserves a much better front-of-house experience. We still tipped 20%, but believe me, it wasn't earned. Fix the service, and this place will be outstanding. Until then, come for the food, brace yourself for the rest. read more

Pizzalina - Gio's special with pepperoni - Pizza Near Me - Walnut Creek, California

This restaurant is close to my house and I've now been a few times. The first time I went my sister and I were just trying to find something near by and Italian. We ordered the mozzarella sticks and Columbus pizza and both were tasty. Since then I've also tried to tavern style pizza which is the closest I've ever had to Monical's (central Illinois) which I loved. The last time I went I tried the short rib pasta which was good but I do think the mozzarella sticks and tavern style pizza are my favorites. I also like the wine they had on tap. Service has always been nice. read more

Best pizza in the Bay Area hands down. Pizza snob from NJ and this place really impressed me. The pizza is perfectly crispy but not overcooked. The sauce has a great balance of fresh tomato, sweet and spicy. Our #1 favorite is the original pie but the special of the month with sausage, pesto, and secret spices was really good - hopefully they add it to the permanent menu! The servers and hostesses have always been friendly. The ambiance is nice and casual - but kind of a mix of people dressed up and super casual. read more

I have been wanting to try this place and finally got the chance to! It was very busy on a friday night but for a party of 2 we only waiting about 10 minutes for a table. S/o to the hostess holding down the front! Our waitress, Autumn, was great! Answered all of my questions and checked back in with us frequently. We got a large pizza and was able to do 50/50. you can only do 50/50 if you get white sauce/white sauce or red/red. cannot do red/white. the pizza was so good! crispy/soft crust, good amount of toppings, and very flavorful! also tried the minestrone which was delicious! for dessert i had to get their rotating soft serve flavor which was peach! very very good, wish it had more of the crumble on top. they have a large selection of beers and wines both on tap and bottled. will be back to try their pasta and other apps! also, their ranch is sooo good!!! read more

Updated Review: We still order every other week sometimes. The pizza is delicious and I always get the BYO large pepperoni (18 inch). I also order the spaghetti, the meatballs are the tastiest meatballs I have ever had. It makes this dish. The short rib ravioli is my go to but it is not a staple on the menu so if you see it get it, you won't regret it. Please add this the menu permanently if you see this review!!! Again, one of our go to places in our weekly rotation. Easy online ordering and ready for pick up in 20 minutes. What more can you ask for? read more

Pizzalina!!! We loved it! We arrived for the first time on a Friday night at about 7:30pm. The place was BUSY. It took about 15 minutes to put our name in, and maybe a 10 min wait for a table. No big deal for a Fri night in the WC. As we waited we could see the pizzas and food flying off the chefs counter. That was fun. Seeing the food is what caused us to stay. With the crowd in the waiting area, we wondered aloud if we should leave. I'm glad we didn't! The food was amazing!! We ordered a square pineapple pizza, spaghetti meatballs, wedge salad, autumn salad and cheese sticks. Wowie. So good. It was very comparable to Tony Napoletana pizza in San Francisco in Little Italy district. The cheese sticks had such a great crunch on the outside. Pizza was delicious and bigger than I thought it would be. Meatballs were soft and flavorful. Salads were great except for the vinaigrette in the Autumn was too salty, but I ate it cuz it was still good!! The server Jessica is adorable. She has the sweetest disposition. I'd go back just to be served by her again. You can tell she loves people. Hostess help was kind. Hurried, but kind. Areas to work on: 1) when you enter , there's lots of clutter on the left counter by the window next to the chefs. Get a basket or some cute organizational items to get that in order. Messy counters can ruin the aesthetics. Organization can make everything look better to the eye! 2) be prepared for your Friday night rush. Have table settings rolled in advance. Your poor hostess was doing too much. If she's running around trying to do everything, she won't have time to really serve customers in a calm, no stress sort of way. 3) water carafe on the tables for us camels would be nice. Just a small or medium sized one to cut down on waiting for a waitress to bring it. Thank you for a lovely evening dining in the neighborhood. read more

Right next to my house! This place is really really awesome, but it's so packed on Saturday and Sunday nights so get there early! I went there with my family and we had a pizza, smoked mozzarella sticks and meatballs (I'll take a better pic next time. But damn... here we go.... 1) The smoked mozzarella sticks were amazing, super crispy, super smokey cheese inside. I usually don't get cheese sticks, but I'll order these any day. Super good job on them 2) Meatballs, standard but very tender and tasty with the gravy/sauce on them, the toasted bread that came with it made it even better 3) on to the grand finale, the pepperoni pizza had tons of flavor and was so good, only thing I could pick at it though, was that the undercarriage wasn't super crispy the way I like it and the why NYC pizza is, but it was damn good!!! I took some home and had it for leftovers, there I crisped up the bottom and it was perfect and still good 4) bonus, the service there is outstanding, from the wait staff, to the kitchen staff to the host. All outstanding and very friendly. I took my nephew to get a "tattoo" and he loved that and watched and was mesmerized by the fire from the cooks. Great job! I'll be back to try something other than pizza next time! read more

Pizzalina is a nice neighborhood restaurant with incredible food and super friendly staff. They have a lot of seating and ample parking, so it's a decent pick for group lunches. The food here is SO DELICIOUS. The sauce and bread bases for the pizzas are perfect, and the toppings are all fresh and flavorful. This week I tried their gnocchi for the first time and was floating on how good it was, from the first bite I was in heaven. Typically I would give a restaurant with food and service this good a 5 star review, so why not? This is being petty, but I'm dinging them 1 star for the ambiance. The metal furniture is awful and the lighting is not good. I eat great meals here, but by the end of them, my eyes hurt and my butt is sore. The main room has exposed lightbulbs, and the overflow room has diffused (probably flourescent) fixtures. Neither are great for creating a lovely dining ambiance, but at least it's diffused in the overflow room. Still, that room feels fast-food-y, or fast-casual at best. Those metal chairs.... terrible. So the main room is better, right? hmmm... Exposed light bulbs, I really hate them. Un-diffused lighting is harsh and unforgiving. It flatters no one and is not pleasant to look at. And then also in the main room, except for two wall-side padded benches, the seating is all metal. Bad for butts, bad for acoustics, just bad. I really want them to get better seating and lighting. The food here is *very very very* good. read more

Since Pizzalina came into Walnut Creek it has become our "go to" restaurant for our date nights and one of my favorite place to introduce to my friends and family. Everyone who has joined my partner and me has enjoyed their excellent pizzas, salads and their incomparable Minestrone Soup. Staff is friendly, efficient and helpful especially if you're not sure what to order. Since everything is delicious I can understand the dilemma you might be faced with, but I have some suggestions that might help you as they are our favorite dishes: Pizza - Try the Salciccia; tasty, chewy crust and delicious toppings Soup - minestrone - definitely the best soup ever with fresh vegetables, crisp croutons, beans, fresh peas and the perfect touch herbs. Salad - the best wedge salad I've ever had ; vegetable fresh and crisp and the dressing - light, fresh and perfect Entrees - Potato Gnocchi freshly made potato pillows made in heaven I left the descriptions limited so you can experience it for yourself. But, the main thing that makes this place memorable is that everything is fresh! You won't be disappointed. read more

Kind of a hidden gem tucked in the corner of the countrywood shopping center. Their pizzas are delicious and unique with a good variety of your traditional and the square pieces as well. Their pasta's taste freshly made and are very tender. I love that they're on DoorDash and that they are open slightly later than your average restaurant in the area. Service can be slightly slow, but if you wipe someone down, they come pretty quickly. read more

I've been coming here regularly, but my last visit was really disappointing. I was dining with my 2-year-old, and while I understand there are rules about kids standing on seats, the way it was handled was not okay. The waitress came over pointing at my child and yelling "he can't stand on the seat." A calm, respectful reminder to me would have been more appropriate--especially since he's a toddler. I also asked for water in a plastic cup for my child, which is a pretty standard request, but was met with attitude and questioning. What made the situation worse was seeing another child standing on a seat nearby without anyone saying anything to them. That inconsistency, along with the tone from staff and past experiences with the manager's attitude, made me feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. I'm not expecting special treatment--just respectful and consistent service. Sadly, this experience makes me reconsider coming back read more
