I stopped by for lunch and was pleasantly surprised. Every dish we ordered was delicious, and the portions were generous. The service was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. Highly recommend this place! read more

Rutherford Family Pizza - All meet pizza unfortunately ate a couple slices before I took the picture - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

Local here! I've been to this establishment 5-6 times over the past six months, and I was honestly hesitant to write this review, but I feel like others should be aware of my experiences here. I usually order a slice or a couple of slices for myself and my family. One thing I've consistently noticed is that the slices are already sitting out and then put back into the oven to essentially warm them up. Because of this, the quality and cooking are never consistent. I've received slices that were burnt, undercooked, or simply didn't have enough sauce or cheese. It's frustrating when you're paying for something and never know what kind of quality you're going to get. My biggest issue, however, is the customer service and organization. The older gentleman, who I believe may be the owner, has always provided me with great service. Unfortunately, the younger employees have been a completely different experience. They often seem distracted, unorganized, and unprepared to work. I've never been there when there were more than 1 to 2 customers, so it's not like they're dealing with a huge rush or being overwhelmed by a busy restaurant. Today was the final straw for me. I called to place an order, and the young man on the phone wasn't really listening. He even stepped away from the phone for a moment, and when he came back, he hadn't gotten my order the first time I gave it to him. I sent my boyfriend to pick up the order about eight minutes later, only to be told that they had no order under my name and didn't have my pizza order at all. At that point, my boyfriend simply ordered the slice I had wanted pepperoni with pineapple and even then, the pineapple wasn't put on the pizza. I understand this is a pizza place and mistakes happen, but after multiple visits with inconsistent food quality and now another issue with an order, I feel like something needs to change. The staff needs better training, organization, and attention to detail. If you're going to work somewhere, you should at least be prepared to listen to customers and get their order. I really hope management takes a look at what's going on because the older gentleman has always been great, and I do believe this place could be much better with the right staff. read more

I paid ~$30 for a pepperoni pizza. It was the most DRY pizza I've ever had in my life. No sauce, 4 huge air bubbles, and no flavor. I was stuck with it because I had it delivered. Honestly, I would have had a better experience getting from a chain. I hate investing in local experiences to get subpar results. SMH read more

I feel like the recipe changed some. The crust taste a tad different. Friendly staff but my pizza had a weird hole and some of the pepperonis were burnt. Probably needed like 3-4 mins less. read more

Rutherford Family Pizza - Some burned pepperoni and a random hole... - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

Owner is very racist (John is his name to my knowledge) both me and my friend (Mexican and dark skin colored)that came in for the first time! Keep in mind this was one of our favorite pizza parlor until we came in. The owner wouldn't stop staring at us in a negative way couldn't keep his eye off of us so that just made the vibes even worse, he then comes up to us asking could I get anything else for you guys we then said no thank you and he then proceeds to say "ok have a goodnight" in a manner demanding us to leave. I get up and ask what's that attitude for? HE HAD NO REASON for it besides the fact that we were the only colored people in his restaurant it was completely obvious and inappropriate in front of his employees and customers. 0/10 never coming back. RACIST PIECE OF CRAP read more

Organization!! Absolutely not it here unfortunately. We walked in, not many people. There was a group that got up and left angry because they had waited an hour from what I overheard. And how do you not have a slice of cheese pizza? On a Saturday you have to expect a rush and they were acting like they have NEVER been through one. Complaining about the tickets they had out loud...Garlic nots were for desert so we took them home (ordered them for an app). Pizza was ok...bland. One time experience for me! Sorry! read more

It's good pizza. I'd say the crust is average and they use canned mushrooms. Considering a 16 inch pizza with delivery was almost $60, I expect fresh ingredients. The flavor is good and I would try it again. read more

Small shop filled with friendly people and a lively crowd of people. You can see the chefs making the pizza in front of you. Ordered two XL pizzas online a little confusing as yelp leads to DoorDash but website leads to square payment. Thin crust, decent undercarriage with large slices. 3.6/5 - Chicken Alfredo - Not really creamy or cheesy, really missing something that gives it a special kick. Just taste like chicken with a little bit of Alfredo 3.8/5 -Supreme - Decent, wished there was a bit more toppings as some parts feel a bit emptier and was just cheese and sauce. Again nothing special but does the job for a big party Decided to go to this place instead of a fast food pizza place not sure if the price difference was worth but it was still a decent experience. Didn't taste the quality I expected read more

After seeing some great reviews of this place, we were excited to try Rutherford Family Pizza for ourselves. We stopped by and got three individual slices: cheese, pepperoni and combo. The first pepperoni slice unfortunately had some charred pepperoni, so we asked if we could swap it for a non-burned slice, which the staff graciously accommodated. The slices came in nice, generous sizes. We just wish that they had more sauce and flavor to them. The sauce itself was delicious, but there wasn't enough of it for the slice to taste like anything until I got toward the edge of the crust, where there was a nice dabbling of sauce. In looking at other photos from reviewers here, it looks like they had plenty of sauce and cheese, so I'm wondering if our slices were just flukes or if maybe some of the staff are newer and just learning to make pizza. Either way, I wish this place well and may try it again in the future. read more

I was craving pizza while I was in Napa and came across a photo of a HUGE SLICE OF PIZZA! So of course I had to check it out! Rutherford Family Pizza is located at the Food City Plaza (I think that's what it's called?). I remember always seeing this pizzeria the times I got coffee next door, but they were always closed, so I am glad I finally got to try them out! Yelp Elite Dario O. and I came during their lunch special hours, which is any 2 NY slices + a drink for $12. Tuesday to Saturday 11 AM to 4 PM. I really wanted the huge slice of pizza so we ended up getting one NY Slice of pepperoni and one CA King Slice of pepperoni. And wow! The size difference is mind blowing! How does a pizzeria make a pizza so big?! They serve NY Style Pizza so it's thin crust. The pizza was thin and crisp with a little fluff in the crust. Not super duper oily, too! The CA King slice of pizza held up well, too. You'd think that maybe it would be all flimsy and maybe oily, but nope. Not at all! Service was great. After ordering, they'll serve the slices to your table. Whoever was working that day saw me taking pictures and videos so when a fresh pie of the CA King pizza pie came out the oven, I was invited to take a photo/ video. I'm so glad I did because that pie was MASSIVE! Lol! I almost ordered another slice just because. Ambiance was chill. I really enjoyed their pizza so I look forward to dropping by here for another slice! read more

Pizza + wine = perfect dinner plans Visited Napa for the weekend and this spot looked yummy and was close to our stay. I am so glad we gave this place a shot because the sauce was sooooo good. I'm a sucker for pizza sauce and the sauce from here was delicious (perfect sweet/tangy/savory balance), there's a nice crunch to the crust, add in perfectly crispy pepperoni and spicy jalapeños and it was a great pie. Also be mindful of slices because we thought the large size would be good but it was actually larger than expected. still has 8 slices but they are huge. We also grabbed the kale cesar salad and the kale itself was very fresh looking and crunchy, just a little disappointed in the salad dressing- it wasn't as flavorful as we thought it would be but it's definitely a personal preference miss for that one. We ordered to go, but the staff seemed very lively, helpful and friendly with pick up and to go needs. It wasn't too busy when we made our pick up but they have a good amount of seating from what it looks like and the twinkle lights provide a nice atmosphere making this a great lunch or dinner spot! read more

We tried this place for the first time. We sat outside it was a beautiful day. The service was great, the pizza was delicious. I'm definitely going to go back, I'm hooked! I had never had pepperoni and pineapple pizza. I can't explain how delicious it was, and the crust, it wasn't floppy or flimsy, it was perfect, we asked for it to be a bit toasty and they got it just right. When in Napa, try this pizza place, you will not be disappointed. read more

Pizza's great! I love the smell of pizza cooking. They also use the brick oven outside, perfect for a cold night when sitting outdoors. Service is excellent. Friendly staff.

Can't go wrong with a large pepperoni pie here! And they are so nice... One time I ordered slices to be delivered and since it was the end of the night and they didn't have any other orders, they sent me a whole pizza! read more

Only go there if you are willing to wait an hour for a pizza. Told me 30 minutes and a small pepperoni pizza took over an hour. No apology. Save yourself the frustration. read more

Delicious! We ate in (I think a freshly made pizza will always be better than one pre-made, but nice that they have slice options also). We got half Hawaiian and half Combo. It was so good. I love that it was thin crust but NOT soggy. Hallelujah!!! They did not skimp on the toppings. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Sauce was old in that it upset my stomach...I have experienced this before and I was very disappointed. I have a lot of experience with marinara as I am Italian and cook Italian several times a week read more

Came here for the first time with pretty high expectations based on the reviews. The pizza was good and the lunch special is an awesome deal price wise. The pizza is pretty good but not as great as I was thinking. I'd still go back and it's still worth a visit. read more

I went here when they first opened and I was not impressed but a coworker told me that their pizza was really good so I thought I would go back and give them a try. After it took a while to get someone to take our order we waited almost 40 minutes for our small pizza, but in the meantime, the two young boys that were making the pizza were busy taking selfies behind the counter, which neither of them had on gloves and I think that's disgusting since God knows where they take their phone with them. We had ordered pizza and garlic knots and the pizza was done before the garlic knots and the owner came to us and said I guess you're having garlic knots for dessert. TACKY!!! read more

I've eaten pizza across the globe--from Naples to New York to Tokyo. So believe me when I say: this is a really, really, really good pizza. And where did I find it? Napa, California, of all places. Not what you expect from wine country, but this spot absolutely delivers. Perfect crust, quality ingredients, and serious craft. Don't skip it read more

How dare you call yourself, NY style pizza. This is an absolute disgrace. It was dry with no undercarriage.. my question to them is, Have ever been to NYC? There are pizza stands inside subway stations that are 100% better than your pizza. Maybe you could learn from them how to make a good traditional NYC Pizza. And when did pizza become a gourmet food? Why are you charging $33 for a pizza thats this bad? Shameful! You're not going to last. If you want a good pizza go up to Yountville's Vello Pizza . read more

We all loved it! Purchased it for Birth team at Napa Valley Birth Center and shared with couple having their baby there. Everyone was like "oh my goodness, where did you get this pizza!" read more

The short version: Go get yourself a frozen pizza for $7 at Safeway and skip this place. Or, if you aren't set on pizza, there's a fantastic restaurant called Hacienda right next door! The long version: I was really excited to try a new, local, pizza place but honestly, that excitement faded rather quickly upon eating the pizza. I will give them credit for the pepperoni being cooked the perfect amount, but the rest of the pizza was very bland and basic AF. The crust, in particular, was like cardboard - very expensive cardboard - and definitely needs improvement. We ordered a large pepperoni pizza which came out to $27. They charge $2 per topping so it adds up quickly. IMO the first topping should be free. Meh pizza would be OK if it was cheap, but at this price point, we will neither return nor recommend this place. They also apparently service slices, but at $10/each, no thanks. You can get better pizza at a better price at pretty much any chain pizza place, and that's a total bummer. The two stars I did give are for my online order being ready on time and the employee at the order/pickup counter being friendly enough. read more

Rutherford Family Pizza - Pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Napa, California

If I could give this place zero stars, I would, I went to this place about a year ago and I thought it was very good. Not the best but pretty decent. I went today and it was an absolute disappointment. I couldn't believe the burn pizzas. The boy was bringing out. I don't know if it was a bad day for them, but it was terrible. We ended up just packing our pizza to go and gave it to a homeless person. I didn't want to waste the pizza. It was edible but very unpleasant. I definitely won't be coming back here... and if you're not from around here, they have fazerratis pizza down the street. Their pizza is pretty good. read more

This is my second review of Rutherford Family Pizza. As before, this is the best New York style pizza in Napa. The crust is thin, the sauce is very good, the pepperoni is high quality, the cheese is good and there's not too much of it. The New York style pizzas come out of a regular pizza oven and you can buy a whole pizza or by the slice. Slices offered are cheese, pepperoni, veggie and supreme. I would love to see them offer a chicken Parm slice but there is something for everyone. One slice is more than enough to feel pleasantly full. My son loves their wood-fired pizzas, which are not sold by the slice. I prefer the New York style but the wood-fired is also very good. The restaurant is family owned, very clean, and very popular with locals. Again, best New York style slice in Napa. read more

The pie is awful. I keep ordering from here in hopes it surprises but it always ends in disappointment. EVERY. SINGLE.TIME. It's always cold, it always comes under prepped with little cheese on the pie. I mean how you botch a pepperoni pizza is beyond me. But hey, after multiple chances. Why am I not surprised? read more

Pizza tastes good. But If you're gonna call yourself a New York Pizza spot, consider having hours more in line with New York City . 8:30 pm close?!!!! Closed on Sunday?!!! In my best New York parlance:: "get the f$&@ outta here"!!! read more

Great pizza and service but it is very very overpriced and the last few times I've been there it has taken over 40 minutes to get my pizza with less that 3 orders ahead of mine. read more

I live 5 minutes from here. And we have tried too many times to count but experience the same thing: either burnt pizza or not hot enough. So sad. I'm just tired of them saying sorry, just get it right. read more

Ordered a cheese pizza with mushrooms $4.00 with tip. Thinn dry crust very dry sauce with a small amount of cheese.

The establishment it self is very clean and simple . The waitress was very polite and helpful. We walked up and ordered, and she was very clear about how long it would take for the next pizza and gave us time to mull over our decisions. We ordered the classics, one cheese and one pepperoni, to get the truest assessment of a slice there. The slices are gigantic, visually pleasing and look delicious, I really appreciated that they use the perfect lil cupping pepperonis. Upon tasting the slices, I felt the dough was slightly undercooked and there was no lasting flavor or complexity to the dough. The tomato sauce lacked seasoning, which I know can be nice but coupled with a very bland mozzarella the taste fell flat. I am sure lots of people will disagree with me and this is just my opinion. So experience for your self and make your own judgement. read more

The service was amazing!! The ambiance was calm and simple. We ordered garlic knots which were flavorless and the pizza was also flavorless. A 5 out of 10 was ranked by my entire family. read more
