After a trip to the Mountain Democrat with my husband, we stopped into Spanky's Pizza -- and from the first bite, I was back home in Flint, Michigan. I had a small pizza with mushrooms and ham, and the crust tasted just like the old Sicily's Pizzeria I grew up with -- thin, chewy, and perfect. (If you know Sicily's, you know. Sadly, they closed after 60+ years, but the memory lives on.) In Flint, Sicily's was across the street from where the famous Sit-Down Strike shaped labor history. It's funny -- sitting at Spanky's, I realized Placerville has that same deep connection to American history. Right outside, you're steps from where Pony Express riders once thundered by, and just down the road, gold seekers changed the course of California forever. If you love real, made-from-scratch pizza and towns that still feel like they have stories to tell, Spanky's is a must. Can't wait to come back for a giant anchovy pizza! read more

My coworkers and I wanted pizza for lunch. As we were deciding where to go, I asked if anyone has been to Spanky's? We decided to check it out. As we walked in, we walked in on the bar side, and I thought to myself hmmmm, this will be interesting...or do we turn around and leave??? We stayed, and I'm so glad we did!! The BEST pizza ever!!!! Holy moly I can't wait to have leftovers!! Moral of the story, don't let the outside (even the inside) fool you....the pizza was delicious!!! read more

Spanky's Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Placerville, California

Last night at 7:30. 3 young firefighters came off of the fireline on the mosquito fire. They wanted pizza. They had heard spanky's was the best pizza in Placerville. They missed dinner at camp and were hungry. They were still in their rig and completely geared up and drove straight to the pizza parlor. Arriving 30 minutes before the time the parlor would close. They were turned away. There's several things that are important to know about these 3 men. The 1st one being that they came all the way from Tennessee to help us. The 2nd being these are firefighters saving our asses our asses our property, And desperately trying to keep us safe. They had been working for the previous 12 hours straight. They were tired, They were hungry. You turned them away. I'll never buy your pizza again if it's the last pizza on Earth I will do without Ythsta Resovich read more

The man who took my order over the phone was very kind, he was also very helpful. We got a large meat pizza, wings and the salad... I will say that the chef salad was okay but not worth almost $15. The pizza was good, the crust being the best part. I'm confused about the pastrami lunch meat that was on the pizza, other than that it was good. If I ever order from this place again I will make sure to ask for a little extra sauce and no pastrami. read more

True (unassuming) gem! I have lived in the area for most of my life and even a stones throw away from this place for 5 years in the early 2000s. I was always aware of Its' existence but never gave it a shot. I can't even count how many times I would drive by and say something like "oh hey..Spanky's. I wonder what it's like in there". I never heard anyone talk about it so I just figured it wasn't worth my time or money. Fast forward to recently, my husband works at a restaurant in town and many of his coworkers have great taste and recommendations for local cuisine. Someone mentioned Spanky's being good, so we said one random Saturday- "screw it, let's try 'em out!". I am so glad we did. We started with a plain cheese because you can really judge the quality of a pizza by 2 things- the crust and the sauce. We wanted that pure experience. We were blown away. It was SO good and a shockingly great price. The pies lean NY style..a thinner crust and a sauce that tastes like an Italian mother slaved over all day to get just right. I'm no pizza aficionado, all I can say is..it tastes incredible. Even the cheese was delicious. We have since ordered Spanky's multiple times and it's our go-to. They were closed on some random Sunday a few weeks back so we decided to try Mountain Mike's off Missouri Flat and we were so disappointed. Their pizza doesn't even compare and is literally almost double the price. We had been spoiled by the glorious Spanky's for too long. One thing to mention- the location. Like I said, it's unassuming. You almost feel like you are stepping in a time machine going into that place. It's not a pizza joint where you hold a kids birthday party- save that for Pizza factory off Broadway. It's an old building with old carpet and only a couple tables. There is a bar on site that always seems to be packed with regulars. I personally love the vibe but it may turn some people off because it gives that "dive bar" energy. All I can say is, don't let that steer you away. The people who run it are a delight, their pies are delectable, and their prices seem like highway robbery compared to the other joints in town. Eventually I may even go there to have a drink. It could b If you are on the fence, please do yourself a favor and call that order in now. We have yet to get a pizza from them that we don't love read more

This is our new favorite pizza place. Hubby had a Calzone and I order pizza(large of course so we had some to take home. Pizza is outstanding. Get it with pink sauce. A half and half mix of white sauce and regular red sauce. Soooooo good. If you drink beer, this is the place, they are so cold and if you like a glass then it's even better. They keep them in the ice box with beer. This is the only way to drink a beer. The place doesn't look like much so jump in you won't be disappointed. They also have Burgers, fries, poppers and mixed drinks. read more

Love this place. Been coming here for years. Very very oldschool pizza place. Staff is always been awesome.

I was in Placerville over a weekend and wanted some good takeout. Spanky's pizza hit the mark all around. We ordered a pepperoni pizza, and it was delicious. We ate half hot for dinner, and cold for lunch the next day. Good both ways! Tasty pepperoni and the right balance of cheese, meat, and sauce. Will keep Spanky's in mind for next time I'm in the area. read more

I called multiple times and can't get anyone to answer the phone to place a pizza an order.

The pizza was amazing, It's super fun to wait for your food because of the pool table!

I was shocked and I only how amazing the service was, but also how good the food was and how affordable it was as well. It's rare that you find a place that's good where the prices don't reflect the quality. They could easily charge more for what they serve it's amazing! I was helped by this amazingly kind older woman who was just a gem. She really made my day! read more

Great friendly people and awesome tasting pizza. It the first time me and my wife visited.

This is THE BEST PIZZA in El Dorado County. You must eat it fresh. This means you must eat it at the restaurant. There is no pizza that even comes close. We have lived in the area for 40 years. No comparison. The tastiest most delicious pizza you shall find. read more

Great pizza!! I'm originally from the east coast and if you want great thin crust pizza, there is no better place around!

We ordered a pizza this last Friday evening (August 11th) and brought it home to eat. It was so salty it was inedible. It is though someone took a salt shaker, took the top off and sprinkled it heavily with salt. It was disgusting. Never eating here again!!!!!!!!!! read more

Spanky's is the best pizza in town-- take it from someone who has tired them all! No one beats Spanky's for flavor or texture. The crust is perfect every time, and the toppings are very fresh. There's a reason this independent pizza shop has been around for over 30 years. Since our family discovered Spanky's, there's nowhere else we even consider! Disregard the 1 and 2-Star reviews. They're very old and not reflective of the establishment as it currently is. read more

Stayed in Placerville for the weekend and ordered pizza. It was great!! It wasn't greasy and the customer service was amazing!!

It's small inside but the pizza was one of the best I've had in a long time. Crust was perfect. Not greasy. Perfect! I'll be going back there again for sure! read more

Went in with my boyfriend and got a small sized one, and it was still enough for the both of us. Almost couldn't finish it. The dough was SUPER soft and fluffy, it's honestly one of the best pizzas I've had in a while. I'm usually one to just get little cesar, papa johns, or something so getting a made to order pizza was definitely worth it read more

To be honest, pizza was really good, inside was a little sketchy. HOWEVER, the reason we gave this place 3 stars is because the employee making the pizza was really rude to the sweet young lady working the counter. The way he spoke to her was belittling, and we get that she was new, but that is not under any circumstance okay to speak to someone like they're dumb. Especially in front of customers. To the girl working the counter, leave that place and work at the starbucks down the street where you will be treated with respect and given real benefits. read more

We were up here at the fairgrounds for a dog show and Spanky's showed up as a short walk so we headed out about 5:00 pm. Not a big sign out front but we found it. Very simple inside. We walked in and were greeted then ordered a pizza to dine in. 15 minutes later it was hot and perfect. For now on, every time we come up for the dog show we are going to eat there. Great flavor. Nice people. read more

Pizza was solid. I appreciated that they were able to accommodate a large order and 8t was ready shortly after they opened.

Food is excellent, always has been, but they are in serious need of a remodel. I hate saying this because I love Spankys, but the smell is awful and it looks like anyday the ceiling will cave in. Please do consider. read more
