    We tried two, check my photos. Absolutely delicious! Kale ceasar salad is perfect, the kale is in the dressing! Romaine, mixed greens, tomatoes & croutons are perfect combo for their pizza! Cashier named Coral is amazing! She handled orders and the register flow like an expert. She was kind and super efficient! Tables inside & outside they will bring your pizza to your table if you dine in. 1st time customers, do a Yelp review and get a cookie. Clean bathrooms always appreciated! Pizza modifications can only be ordered before 3pm. After that its whole pies only. They are pricey but well worth it!

    I loveeee the spicy pepperoni pizza! I've gone to the Oakland downtown location a few times and everyone is always kind. They have outdoor seating and some inside. Parking in the area is limited but service is quick.

    Honestly I never bothered to review because it was always a 5 star experience here at the Oakland location and in SF. Real talk--the food slaps no cap. Square Pie Guys hits the spot every single time. The crust has that perfect crispy, cheesy edge, and the vibes inside are great. Excellent food, free tap (filtered?) water, quick service, and now a free cookie with this review? Say less. If you're ordering for the first time, take time to download the app for 20% off with promo code 20NEWSPG, it's worth it.

    Square Pie Guys is such a lunch staple. Offering 1/2 sized pizzas for 1/2 the price, the perfect lunch time grub. Parking is metered. Located in Old Oakland, the scenery is nice to walk around in with ample seating inside and out of its location. service is usually fast and friendly!

    Staff: really nice and they greeted us right away. Super friendly and attentive Dining Area: clean and you could tell they cleaned up after patrons. We sat to drink a beer and I appreciated that the tables were clean. Food: although it could be a bit pricey the food is solid, hot and really good flavor. We always get the Brussels and wings. The beer was also really good so you could tell they keep the tap lines clean. Such a good treat, whenever we get a chance to pop into this store.

    My sister was raving about the SPG Detroit style pizzas and that I should give it a try. I found out that there was location at 9th and Washington in Old Oakland. I used to work a couple blocks away and since retiring, I haven't been to this area in a while and remember dining at this location that SPG is located now. I ordered The Big Von, which has white sauce, sausage, pepperoni and hot honey. First time trying this pizza style, which is rectangular in shape and it's thick crusted like focaccia and it is light and airy. It was tasty and first time I had hot honey on a pizza. Two weeks later, I ordered the Ellen Supreme, which has vodka sauce, pepperoni, sausage, grilled red onions, marinated red peppers and mushrooms and Mush-O-Roni, which has red sauce, mushrooms, pepperoni, hot honey, and grana cheese. Both were delicious but like the mush-o-roni as little more. Must be that hot honey. Both orders were via the app, which was easy. Notification that pizzas were ready right before designated pickup time. Workers were friendly. Those who wish to dine-in, there were inside and outside tables. Parking is street parking and it could be challenging based on time of day.

    Square pie is hella good! I don't know if this is Detroit style or just thick and crispy but it is delishhhh. All kinds of crunch and flavor and I'm into it.

    Always a decent pizza from Square Pie. Love the crisp edges and the specials. Order in advance. It is a bit hard to park in the area, especially on a Fri/Sat night.

    They are pretty good for sure. I used to LOVE pizza in my younger days (Still do, but can't eat it as much these days). My Goto pizza was also Round Table, or Unos, when Unos was grand...This pizza does the job with its Old School cafeteria square pizza style. It's square with buttery goodness all around the edges...it's got the perfect amount of sauce and cheese, but the bread is pretty thick not to be considered deep dish. I've been several times and always get the Pepperoni pizza...I wish I could add pineapple when ordering ahead, and less bread but they don't allow additions beyond the online menu. I'd recommend anyone give them a try if you haven't already.

    Square pie pizza is a place I've been wanting to try for a long time. I am so happy I came here to try it The pizza is fresh, hot and smells amazing. It smells sooooo good walking through the door. The customer service was great upon arrival. I was greeted the second I walked in. The place was clean and the vibes were good here. Ordered 2 pizzas, bread sticks and a cookie (all shareable items). When I say NOT 1 item regretted. Long story short, I will definitely be back. #PizzaLover

    The big box combo deal on Mondays is a great deal and the Szechuan wings are so yum. I'd recommend ordering online or on the app so there's less of a wait when you get to the restaurant.

    I've been back to Square Pie Guys so many times, and this time we ordered takeout on a lazy night. As always, the pizza didn't disappoint, but the sides really stood out. We got the hot honey chicken (my favorite), and it was just as good as I remembered. The garlic fries were especially good this time, still flavorful but a bit less heavy on the garlic, which I actually preferred. The Brussels sprouts are a must-order for us every time, super crispy and packed with flavor. We also tried a salad for the first time, and it was better than expected. The house sauce really made it come together. Definitely one of our go-to spots when we don't feel like cooking!

    MEAN GREEN MACHINE - $20 - Garlic ricotta cream, Italian sausage, roasted broccoli, chile flake, mike's hot honey.

    WHEN: Sun @Noon After wandering around Old Oakland, we knew the perfect spot for lunch: Pizza at Square Pie Guys. I love this place and discovered them early Pandemic but my problem is that it's a 2-person process for pick up because the location has no parking. But today was different because we walked on over to the area via Water Shuttle! I've never dined in before, and thanks to a deal via DoorDash, I got $10 off my pizza! We went for the: MUSH-O-RONI - $24 Red sauce, mushrooms, pepperoni, mikes hot honey, grana, parsley. You get 4 thick and hearty slices and it was so good as I remember! Crust was perfectly chewy and crispy and gooey with all the right toppings. Just one and a half fills us each! There's a water station you can self serve for some, and be sure to Wait your own tables AND tip when you order before sitting down! Oh and if you don't want to interact with a stag member, there's a code on the table you can scan and order online.

    Ask the Community - Square Pie Guys - Oakland

    Do you have the chicken pizza on instagram the one Grub with Mike had?

    Yes! It’s available on Uber Eats or for dine in at the restaurant

    What brand of vegan cheese do you use?

    Violife!

    Can I order half cheese and half anything else? Pizza please? I mean pretty please? My son only eats cheese but mom and dad want to try one of your adventurous pizzas.

    No- you can't alter anything. Take it as it is or don't order it 😂 you can't even add a mushroom, an onion, or an olive. If you want to add anything you have to build your own and spend 50$ for a pizza with four slices.

    Are the corn ribs available at this time?

    Hey Ronnesha, Sadly it is not. It was one of our favorite items, but we couldn't consistently get… 

    How spicy is the Ellen supreme? I'm looking for a pizza with meat that's not spicy at all. Thanks

    Do you use beef pepperoni and sausage?

    I don't think so. Pretty sure it's pork.

    Hi will you be making any Halloween themed pizzas?

    Hello! We love that idea, but no not this year. We will be catering many Halloween parties though!

    What happened to the fried brussel sprouts? (panicking)

    Hey! They are coming back in the Fall and Winter. They are our seasonal veggies during those seasons.

    Did they move? They used to be in Old Oakland, but the address Yelp has listed on Huey is 2 miles away from Old Oakland.

    They are still in Old Oakland. Right near Ratto's.

    Is there a pizza with both pepperoni and sausage with red sauce? Kids are picky lol

    Yes. In addition to the pies listed on their menu, you can build your own pie.

    Do they accept cash?

    Hello. Unfortunately we do not accept cash at any of our locations. We do accept Apple Pay, credit and debit cards.

    Does the "How Mush-Room" have tomato sauce or is it a white sauce? (friend cannot eat tomatoes and wanted to clarify).

    Hello Truong! The How Mush-room comes with white sauce.

    What is the pepperoni made of?

    Beef and pork!

    Do they take any cross contamination prevention measures for the gluten free pizza? I know it's not a GF place but do they use separate pan and cutter?

    Yes I asked as my wife is GF. They use separate pans, cutters and even a separate mixer for the GF dough.

The menu is small, but they really get to focus on the making the items they do have the best. We ordered a cheese pizza and it was delicious. We went in just wanting a slice each, but they don't offer slices until after 9pm. It was a good thing we had to order a full pizza. Because we almost ate the whole thing. So full of taste.

Cold craft beer + hot artisan pizza = perfect combo. There were four of us and we were greedy so ordered the pepperoni and the margherita and both were so good. The cheese they load onto the crust is next level, it's generous and adds so much flavor on its own. And the basil, there was a lot, and I recommend having it with your pizza. I loved it so much! It makes a difference. For four of us, we ended up with about 3/4 of a pie left. We each ate 2-3 slices. The pizza itself is huge, way more than I expected, so come hungry or be ready to take some home. Service was fast too, they clearly have their process dialed in and it's fun to watch the whole kitchen. Parking wise, there is a small lot but that can fill up, and you're still fine with street parking right there. Such a simple menu but everything they do, they do really well. Can't wait to go back and do the pizza-and-brewery combo again! June's Pizza alone is worth the SF to East Bay trip :)

Jeff, the owner and pizza maker, is so nice, warmly welcoming us upon arrival and inquired if we'd prefer indoor or outdoor seating. Beautiful day so opted for outdoor on their expansive back patio.

Soppresata - an OG item on the menu and one of my favorites. Simple classic pizza with soppresata topped with scallions and honey. Savory, sweet. The honey is perfect on this pizza. Longanisa - Filipino inspired with longanisa, baked egg, and tomato. Savory and sweet. Heaviest of the three pizzas. Comes with a side of sweet vinegar to drizzle on top.

At least I got to go a couple times before they closed and was able to try all the unique flavors that I wanted to try. The first time I went was with my family. We got a whole Ube pizza. The taste was good, and love the uniqueness of it. Even the dough is purple! There weren't that many people there when we went, so the service was quick. My second visit was closing weekend with a group of friends. I got to try two more flavors recommended by the server during my first visit - blackberry and longanisa. Both were very good in different ways. I think I preferred the blackberry slightly over longanisa. They had a lot of take out orders that day, and we got the last white dough (there were still Ube). Good thing we got what we got. Even though they were super busy, the service was still quick and pizza came out fast. I heard they opened up again in San Francisco but for take out only. So glad they reopened because after having the amazing pizzas right before they closed on Oakland, my friends and I were sad that we didn't go sooner. Can't wait to try again in the future.

    Pizzeria Violetta in Oakland is firing on all cylinders right now, especially with their current…read moreRestaurant Week special. Their pizzas are already reliably delicious, but this deal is genuinely outstanding value since you get a large 18" pizza, your choice of a Caesar or dinner salad, and four very large sea salt chocolate chip cookies, all for $35. We grabbed two of these specials for a group of six and still had leftovers, so I'd say one combo easily feeds three people and could probably stretch to four as long as no one is absolutely starving. The pizzas themselves are ultra thin but still hold up structurally since you can lift and fold each slice without everything collapsing, which is exactly how I like to inhale my pizza. I personally wish the crust were just a touch more burnt and crackly on the edges, but even without that extra char, the flavor and bouncy chew of the dough were spot on. We ordered the Hot Italian and the Sausage & Roasted Garlic pies and absolutely loved both, especially the housemade sweet Italian sausage that appears on each, which is savory, slightly sweet, and super satisfying in every bite. Their house tomato sauce deserves its own shout out because it hits that ideal balance of sweetness and acidity and ties everything together perfectly. On the Sausage & Roasted Garlic it plays beautifully with the rich roasted garlic purée, and on the Hot Italian it stands up nicely to the Calabrian chilis and chili oil without getting lost. The sea salt chocolate chip cookies that come with the special are huge and packed with chocolate chips, and that little hit of salt really enhanced the flavors but the something about the texture was a bit off for me as it wasn't quite chewy or crumbly but rather something in between, which left me a little confused. Another big plus is that Violetta has a full bar so you can pair your meal with a beer, a glass of wine, or a cocktail to match whatever pie you are in the mood for. Between the quality of the ingredients, the thoughtfulness of the flavor combinations, and the generosity of the Restaurant Week deal, Pizzeria Violetta is an easy recommend and a spot I would happily return to with a group (or by myself with plenty of leftovers!).

    My daughter and I get an 18-inch pie from this place every other weekend because she loves their…read moresweet little pig pie and pizza in general. I don't know why the pies cost so much, but they are only a few blocks from our place, so I want to support the few restaurants that set up shop in West Oakland. However, I'm starting to sour on this place. I don't mind overpaying for pizza; that's just edible, but on a few occasions, I've been appalled by what these folks try to get away with. A couple of months ago, they gave us a pie that was so burnt I had to call to complain, and they replaced it with a less burnt pie. Perhaps they don't know that extremely burnt food is full of carcinogens. This week, we ordered our usual 18-inch pie. This pie was a Frankenstein pie; half of it tasted like it had been sitting under the lamp all day. A telltale sign is how stiff the cheese is; the old dough feels as if I'm chewing on rubber, and the slices are stiff and salty overall, though some slices taste a bit fresher and crunchier. I was disappointed. If you're going to overcharge for mediocre pizza, the least you could do is give people what they are paying for. If I wanted old, stale pizza, I would've asked for the slices that sit under the lamp all day. Moving forward, if we order from this place, I will walk over, place the order, and wait for it, so we don't get cheated again. This place is a reminder of why certain restaurants often fail. The food is overpriced, and they are inconsistent with their service, if not disrespectful, in how they sometimes treat and feed their customers. We're not pigs; we just like eating the sweet little pig.

I prefer these thin and crisp styles of pizzas…read moreover any other style...over deep dish, Detroit, suburban medium crust and even Neapolitan. Straight preference. Upon walking in this hole in the wall urban space I knew it was going to be decent to special. First no frills look, nothing fancy or hip, just a utilitarian vibe, where even though we don't have a subway system, it feels like one could have gotten off a train and straight into this store once you hit street level. The smell of NY style pizza also is thick in the air, the smell of baked yeast mingling with a melding of tomato sauce and sparse cheese. And this was all before I even received and/or tasted a slice. Pizzas by slice can be had, they have about 6 you can choose from. They par bake whole pies and just reheat the slices, which is super legit. That reheating makes a slice more crisp, which I tend to swoon for. And if you get it in slice form, it will get handed to you within 5 minutes. You can get whole pies here and I'm sure those are better called in as you can use your travel time as the wait time. Cheese Slice ($5/4.5*) Perfectly thin and crisp. And the sauce and cheese is so sparse and in balance that it won't weigh that thin crust down at all. The cheese is so sparse that there will be no cheese pull, which I think Californians don't understand/prefer. Cept I love it cuz it isn't as rich and oily. I do kinda wish the sauce had more umph but after a sprinkle of oregano and red pepper flakes, it turns out just fine. I also think the outer edge of the crust is a bit too big and tough, like you really have to chew that mofo. But I like to roll my slices so that crust is intergrated with the rest so it balances everything out nicely. And I ate this in one hand as I roamed the streets of Uptown. The crisp bites, the tomato and light cheese tandem all mingled with urban city air and just made perfect sense. Pepperoni ($5.50/4*) They use good quality pepperoni, small but thick slices. Definitely makes it greasier which may make this a one and done for me. Wish I could have added mushrooms to this to balance it out more, cuz as is, is just too salty and one note for me. But to a basic bish pepperoni eater, this should fit the bill just fine. But I'll round up to a fiver cuz we simply don't have many of these out here, so to offer this within my reach is quite the lucky circumstance. Gotta give them props on making my bar hopping for this area much more complete and complimentary. Hells ya!

    Satisfies that New York Pizza craving…read more Quick with it, if you get slices. Whole pies will take longer.

    Was headed home and hungry after a social event on a Friday, but thought it's a good time to give…read moreHeshers a try. Live in Jack London square but haven't tried Heshers since the Crooked City Cider changeover. So glad I gave this a try. While Heshers gives this punk rock, aggro vibe online, inside the staff were warm and super friendly. My bartender helped me find the right drink (a Humboldt blueberry cider at 11% abv) and then I ordered the Meat Fungus pizza (lots of ground meat plus mushrooms). Sat at the bar and enjoyed my cider as well as convo with the other guests and bartender. In about 20 min, my pizza was ready. I took everything to go but was home in minutes. Couldn't wait for the first bite, and was NOT disappointed. Crisp crust pizza... not quite Detroit. Not Sicilian... def not New York style. But absolutely delicious. Came with a few packets of Parmesan and crushed peppers. Added it all and it was too good to leave a single slice for tomorrow. I'll be back, Heshers! Take my money! And thank you!

    Ordered a pizza to go from Hesher's and it definitely delivered!…read more First off, the theme here is unapologetically metal. The decor, the attitude, and the music all lean into it--they were blasting metal while I was there, which gives the place a fun, high-energy vibe that feels a little different from your typical pizza spot. If you're into that scene, you'll probably love it. The setup is super casual. You order at the counter and can hang out while you wait. They've got a great beer selection, and there's even an arcade area where you can play some games while your food is being made. It feels like the kind of place where you could easily kick back with friends for a while. I went with the Mortian, their all-meat pizza, and it was absolutely packed with toppings--pepperoni, sausage, and bacon, all garnished with prosciutto. If you're a meat lover, this one delivers. Every slice was loaded and really flavorful. The crust deserves a shout-out too. It's not thin crust, but it's also not deep dish. It lands right in that perfect middle zone--crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Really satisfying and a great base for all those toppings. Even though I ordered it to go, the pizza held up great and was seriously delicious. I'd absolutely order their pizza again and look forward to trying more of the menu next time.
