    THIN-SLICED, LARGE SLICES! SF Hole In The Wall is a well-known pizzeria in Riverside located right off the 215 freeway and nestled in a cozy shopping plaza. It's got excellent pepperoni pizza, I ordered two slices and my order was ready in less than 10 mins. My slices came straight out of the oven! Two slices were about $13 bucks all together. The ingredients were high-quality (sauce, cheese, meat), everything was fresh. SF has a few tables inside but it's not a large space. Most folks come in and order to-go. However, the place was full during happy hour on Saturday afternoon! SF HITW has a small restroom for guests. I took a trip to the restroom while my order was being prepared and I could hear my name called. Service was pretty speedy and solid, the only issue I encountered was the cashier leaving the counter unattended to chat with her coworkers. When I was ready to pick-up my slices about two minutes later after I exited the restroom, I found myself waiting in front of the counter. Thankfully, another staff member got her attention and we were back in business. My slice was in a warmer while it waited for me, they were super nice! I'll definitely return to this pizzeria! I'm excited to try their other meats and options.

    Haven't been to this shopping center for a while but this pizza place gave me a reason to return. What I liked is this place had beef pepperoni for those who don't eat pork. I had half cheese and pepperoni. The beef pepperoni tasted the same as your traditional pepperoni. I would say the pizza is similar to New York style, but not really cheesy. Pizza here is better than majority of pizza places in the IE, couldn't say that had better yet. I do give the pizza high marks for eating in the day after putting it in the oven. The pizza is on the pricy side but it is a nice experience going to a place that's meant to look like pizza establishment that's been there for years.

    SF Hole In The Wall Pizza is an interesting concept since the only other location is in San Francisco. Everyone was very friendly and the pizza was good. There were a few tables inside and out if you dine in. Overall, this was a pleasant experience and worth returning to.

    Would give 0 stars if possible. 2 kids didn't even want to finish it...kids love pizza so you effed up obviously somewhere... It tastes like Costco pizza. Down to the level of grease. At least costco employees wear hair nets and gloves when they serve you a slice. The cashier girl/slice attendee had a LONG chunk of hair that wasn't part of her ponytail swaying all over the slices that thankfully didn't get served to me, but to another customer unbeknownst to them. The inside is ok, two sets of customers sitting there at 5pm on a Tuesday isn't bad but it ain't busy. Some pizza sitting there looked a little Overcooked, thankfully the cheese pizza wasn't. $6 for a slice is way overcharging. Maybe if this was artisanal pizza...but it's not.

    Pizza is consistently excellent. We usually order the meat lovers with olives & mushrooms. Loved their specials during the World Cup representing different countries. Service is always friendly and accommodating. We order pick up often. Wish they were closer to me in Ontario, but well worth the drive.

    A co worker ordered her lunch here, had it delivered so I thought I would stop in and try it since it's new. I ordered two calzones, mozzarella, ricotta cheese, sausage and pepperoni plus 2 Caesar salads. I took a little longer than expected, their fryer was down; not sure why Italian sausage would be in a fryer. Nice sturdy cardboard pizza box, not soggy; appreciated that. Small, clean pioza joint. Beers and soft drinks available, large menu. Service was very good. When I cut into the calzone at home, a liquid cheese came out instead of stretchy cheese, hmmm. For $15, it should've been stuffed with pepperoni and sausage, maybe I should've ordered more ingredients. Wonderful flavors, a good marinara sauce. Salad was mixed greens and fresh with plenty of croutons. We might come back and try their other dishes which looked good.

    (3.5/5) This little hole-in-the-wall pizza spot serves fresh pies--nothing over the top, but decent. I wish the crust had been a bit crispier. They advertise NY-style, but it just didn't give me that true New York vibe. We walked in right during a small rush. The cooks looked a bit stressed, moving back and forth in a hectic rhythm, which made the atmosphere feel slightly chaotic. The pizza itself was good, but I left wanting more flavor and texture. Side note (because I notice these things): I spotted a dirty fork under the counter near the register. I also saw someone empty the trash and then immediately serve slices without washing their hands. One cook kept wiping sweat on their apron. Little things, but they stuck out to me. Overall, it's a decent local stop if you're nearby, but not a must-visit for me.

    Meat lover slice. Big and delicious! Such a variety to choose from here.

    Pizza by the slice and more, that's what this recent addition to the intersection of Spruce and Chicago brings. Occupying what was once the massive former location of Mario's Place, it's nice to have an Italian establishment reappear here. Inside there's a small dining area, and a display showing all the available pizzas by the slice, as well as pasta and other things prepared to order in the kitchen. My first visit was picking up pizzas to deliver, but i liked what I saw and ordered ahead online. Spaghetti and meatballs plus a slice of meat lovers, which was heated up and nicely boxed. The pasta was great great, too, and I got a second meal from that as leftovers. The slices are pretty hefty, and justify the $6-9 price range. Toppings are also excellent quality. The owners are very nice people and welcoming, I forgot to photograph the second visit items because I was so hungry, but I plan to keep working my way around the menu soon.

    I am pretty picky when it comes to my pizza but i will say I was pleasantly surprised when i went to SF hole in the wall pizza. We got their lunch speacil which included a slice of pizza and a beer ( we substituted for soda) all for 8 dollars. I chose to get the combo classic and my bf got the aloha slice. Both were a great size and covered with lots of toppings. My friend also ordered the phillycheeseteak fries which ended up being our favorite. A unique combination i have not had before and definitely will be going back to get again. Service was very friendly and fast we did not have to wait long for our food and they even walked it out to us as we chose to sit in their patio seating. Highly suggested checking this place out.

    I'll keep it short and sweet. Was the pizza good? Sure was. Was it worth $8? Not even close. Maybe $5. Service was nice and friendly though and they had the football games on so it might warrant a return to dine in maybe get a full pizza and a beer since they also sell alcohol. For now - 3.5 stars.

    Staff are super cool and the pizza here is soo good We got the Hangover Hawaiian and the bacon jalapeño on a Hawaiian pizza is next level. Pizza came out super soft, crispy and juicy Huge pizza for 43 bucks, 16 slices between the four of us, we were starving and couldn't even finish it- planning to come back for sure..

    As a NY transplant, I'm always on the lookout for places that can recreate that East Coast flavor. This spot opened up recently and saw they sold NY style pizzas and slices. I took advantage of a DoorDash deal because why not save a few bucks? There's so much you can gauge about an establishment and quality just by their cheese pizza. It's simple and so delicious when done right and they got theirs right! It's got that NY taste. Thin crust that crisps up nicely on the outside but stays soft on the inside. Reheats really well in a frying pan! Also enjoyed their calzones. Included in the price is up to four toppings for the build your own. I added garlic, spinach, ricotta cheese and Italian sausage and it was delicious. Bonus points because they use pizza crust liners for their pizza boxes to help keep the pizzas fresh during transport which is a great touch!

It's either Riverside or Los Angeles. The Los Angeles location is nice because it has standard restaurant seating and the vibe is full on Monty's! It's so cool! I hope they grow and open more locations. My husband and I just drove an hour to get to the Riverside location. We're only able to come once a month because it's so far away. We would hit it once a month if it were closer, maybe more than once a month. Service is always great at this location. They have stickers and buttons available.

I'm often here on Tuesday nights before a discount movie across the way. This meal is my go-to. A cheeseburger combo, but change the fries for the fried zucchini. In my opinion, this is the best fried zucchini around. I know no one can seem to agree on this, but I really don't know how anyone could disagree. They come out HOTTT, juicy, perfectly salty, and with a massive cup of ranch for dipping (and cooling!). The burger itself is like most other mom and pop burger stands around (George's, Lucky Greek, Niko's Burgers), but I'd still say this one is consistently better. It's always my favorite with the perfect ratio of meat, cheese, veggies, and sauce. They still trust you enough to have the soda fountain self service which is also a plus. More and more places are putting it behind the counter. Lastly I'll add that I love the 50's vibe inside and well working A/C! It's a little small inside, but like I mentioned above the outside seating at Riverside Plaza is already so great.

I ordered two cheeseburger combos and waited quite a long while for my food. After noticing people who ordered way after me getting theirs, I went up to ask about my order, and there seemed to be some confusion. I ended up waiting even longer. The customer service was also a little underwhelming. The cashier seemed pretty uninterested, and when I asked about my order and later mentioned the zucchini, I didn't really feel like my concerns were being acknowledged or taken seriously. The food itself just wasn't what I expected from all the hype. The burger buns were basic at best, the meat seemed undercooked, and the zucchini I paid extra for tasted rancid. I asked if I could switch them for fries, but after waiting again, I eventually just gave up. They did refund me for the zucchini, so I'll give them credit for that. Maybe I caught them on an off day, but unfortunately, based on my experience, I haven't had a reason to go back.

    I want to give this place an honest review. This visit was for breakfast, and overall, it was…read moredecent. I ordered a ham and cheese omelette with a side of hash browns. The omelette was good enough, but I have to be completely honest about the hash browns they were very bland and lacked seasoning. The texture was fine, but I would suggest adding some seasoning during cooking. I think that small change could make them much more appealing to customers. One thing that confused me was the ordering process. When I placed my order in the drive-thru, the employee asked what style of eggs I wanted with my omelette. Since an omelette is already a specific style of egg preparation, I wasn't sure what she meant. Then, when I got to the window, I was asked whether I wanted pickles from a breakfast burrito and whether I wanted potatoes again. I'm not sure if there was some confusion with my order or if they were joking around, but I didn't make an issue out of it. Now that I've finished my breakfast, I'd rate it about a 6 out of 10. That said, I come here often, and there is one item that keeps me coming back: the zucchini. Their zucchini with ranch is an automatic 10 out of 10. In my opinion, it's probably the best thing on the menu, and I highly recommend trying it if you visit. Overall, the breakfast was okay, but the zucchini is definitely the star of the show. Enjoy at your own discretion.

Today, I had a powerful craving for my old favorite - a hot roast beef sandwich with BBQ sauce and horseradish, and some onion rings so I decided to give Lucky Greek another chance. The total for the two items was nearly $25. The rings were pretty good, but the serving was enough for at least 4 people. I wish they would offer a lower priced half-order for single meals. The roast beef sandwich was a real disappointment. The meat was very fatty and had a lot of hard gristle. I pretty much had to take the sandwich apart and pull off the objectionable bits which were about 1/5 of the total weight of the meat. The meat flavor was bland and really needed all of the sauces. The bun was kind of smashed and gummy but held together. Sorry to say, but for me, Lucky Greek just isn't worth going to anymore.
