    I wanted to take a moment to thank Riverside Pizzeria.!!!! The owner, Amritt, is amazing!! His staff is professional and fabulous! Super nice! The pizza is super tasty and superb. It reminds me of when I was in my childhood, this spot in the bay area, called the pizza box. All that being said, what was even more outstanding, was the customer service they provided to my basketball team and families. We had a great season with youth basketball, and we had our season-ending party here. The kids were super happy, playing video games, eating pizza and cross telling stories, and having and making memories. I am so happy. We have the opportunity to celebrate here. They definitely have earned my business. And I know the families that were there as well. They treated us like royalty if you ever in the area want a slice of great pizza and an ice-cold beer. Please go to Riverside pizzeria.

    I'm a pizza lover had to try this pizza out .This is a small hole in the wall pizzeria with affordable prices . They have so many sizes to choose from the smallest being a 8 inch to the biggest being a 24 called the giant which it does live up to its name it's huge for $46.99 very affordable to feed a large crowd . My kids loved the pepperoni pizza I also got half combination and half Garlic Chicken Supreme the white sauce was delicious. They also offer salads, calzones, deli sandwiches , specialty sandwiches, and appetizers . The appetizers they have to offer are Hot Wings, Pesto or Garlic Chips, Garlic Bread, Italian Cheese Strips ,Bread Sticks, and Quesadillas. They have beers on tap and they also offer wine . The staff was all super friendly and attentive . This place reminded me of a pizza place from the Bay Area called The Box in San Jose they would sell big giant pizzas like the ones they sell here. I have not seen that in a while. That place in the Bay Area does not exist anymore so it was pretty cool to find one here in Roseville that sells giants pizzas . We will definitely be back for some more pizza in the future .

    We decided that we needed to try out this hole in the wall pizza place that we've driven by many times. And we were not disappointed! (Note: It's been here since 1999). Cute interior, two TVs (the workers don't know how to change the channels on them so we were watching something random), and a few fun arcade games to play while you wait. The pizza was so delicious! The crust was a combo of fluffy and buttery, with crunchy edges. I enjoyed every bite of my personal sized olive pizza with white sauce. The sauce wasn't overpowering like it is at some places. I enjoyed my experience here and will be back for more!

    The Riverside Pizzeria is a classic pizza parlor. They offer GIANT pizza. We got a "mini giant" and it was pretty giant. The pizza was extremely filling! We also ordered breadsticks. I would say that the bread sticks need some sauce. We used DoorDash, so maybe they forgot the sauce. Not sure. Some marinara would have been tasty. Great place for a family pizza night. Thank you, Riverside Pizzeria!

    We ordered for pickup (half riverside half Hawaiian) on a Friday evening and it took approximately 40 mins until our one pizza was ready. It was worth the wait, the pizza was good, toppings were loaded, sauce was well balanced, the crust is actually edible and not burnt or rock hard. I can't speak for the ambiance since it was a pickup order. The best part is the cheese pulls, definitely IG worthy for my influencer wife.

    The Atmosphere definitely needs updating, great but small selection of beer. The pizza was tasty, probably due the amount of SALT. But very wet, thin & the toppings slid right off. You had to roll the pizza as you pulled it off the pizza tray. The customer service was adequate. We will give it another try. IN A FEW MONTHS-

    Wanted to try a new local pizzeria and came here on a weekday evening. My husband and I ordered our own personal plus some breadsticks. Young guy at counter had no personality and I wondered if my order would be right because there was not much of a response to anything, just a stare. Not even a smile or thank you as I dropped a dollar in the very empty tip jar. The inside is VERY small and I think they put too many tables and chairs in there. Definitely not ADA compliant. If you are claustrophobic, this is not the place for you. Drinks are not self serve so you have to go to the counter for your refills which are met with the same dullness. My husband disappeared for quite some time and it was because it took forever to get help for a drink refill. Our breadsticks came out within 15 mins. I thought it was tasty, and nice and cheesy. My husband says he could have done without it. Our pizzas took another 20 mins so over 30 mins to get our personal pizzas. Keep in mind that only two other people ahead of us and two people after us who got their pizza before we did. No follow up on our wait or if our pizza was in the oven. It came out looking pretty. I appreciated that the ingredients were fresh. It also passed my flop test of not being soggy in the middle. However the sauce was really bland. Wish it had some more kick. With that being said, it lost a little for me because the first bite was great, but towards the end I was tired of eating it. Never said that about pizza before. Then the lack of friendly informative service and slow process, I will probably not be back. Too many other competitors in the area that do better on both.

I arrived around 3:45 pm and waited about 15 minutes before going inside at 4:00 pm. The staff was very nice and welcoming, and they even offered focaccia bread and water while I waited, which I appreciated. I ordered two kids pizzas, one with pineapple and one with olives, and specifically asked for extra sauce because my kids like their pizza that way. I was also charged an extra $2 for the toppings, which I paid, but it would have been nice if that had been communicated to me upfront. Unfortunately, after waiting about 40 minutes, the pizzas were very disappointing. My kids immediately said it tasted like cheese bread, and after trying it myself, I agreed. There was barely any sauce at all, which was surprising since I had asked for extra sauce. My kids wouldn't eat it, and I ended up having to take them somewhere else to get pizza. I was really disappointed after driving so far and having high expectations based on the reviews. Unfortunately, I do not recommend this place and will not be returning.

    I visited Tomatina in Roseville, CA [10505 Fairway Dr] on Wednesday, 06/24/26, around 1:00 PM…read more For lunch, I ordered the following: - Brisk Raspberry Iced Tea - Bowl of Minestrone Soup (prepared with cannellini beans, fusilli, kale, peas & tomatoes) - Pasta Trio (Meat Lasagna, Creamy Pesto Rigatoni & Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo) The minestrone soup was hearty and warm. Whereas the flavors were fairly mild, it was still comforting and certainly good. The pasta trio was palatable overall, with each pasta having its own distinct flavor. My top favorite was the Meat Lasagna; super flavorful and cheesy. The Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo needed a little more sauce. I requested extra Alfredo sauce, which helped to make it more enjoyable. The server was friendly and professional. The atmosphere of the restaurant was vibrant and charming. Overall, Tomatina provided a dining experience that met standards by serving Italian food.

The steak piadini remains just as delicious as I remember, flavorful, comforting, and worth ordering every single time. It's rare to find a restaurant that's been part of your family's story for decades and still delivers such a great experience. Some places come and go, but Tomatina has been a constant for me. Highly recommend.

Bottom line is, I can't recommend it. It all started out just fine. It was a beautiful day, perfect for sitting out on OAR's patio. It's certainly not much of a view, as you're quite literally part of the parking lot. But the chairs were very comfortable, and even though there's a large garbage can adjacent to the eating area, it generally seemed clean. It all began in a way that led us to think this was going to be a great experience. We were met by one of the most pleasant and helpful servers ever - Tami. She was terrific, and she explained a bit about the history of OAR, and it's recent name changeover from Pete's to Al's. We started with the included salads. Mrs. had the house salad with blue cheese dressing; I had the Caesar. Both salads were surprisingly large and excellent. Larger than we expected, with cold, crisp ingredients and top-notch dressings. Totally enjoyable. 5-star. Because we were first-timers, we over-ordered a bit so we could taste several dishes. We ordered the fried calamari. Tami correctly assured us the coating was crisp, and it was. The problem was the calamari itself. It was tough and chewy, not particularly pleasant or tasty. After our 5-star salads, the calamari was a 3. Then came the mains. Mrs. had the shrimp linguini, which she pronounced: "good." The shrimp and pasta were cooked to just the right textures. We took home the leftovers. The dish was a solid 4. I had a full slab of the St. Louis ribs, and honestly, and sadly, they were a disaster. They arrived barely above room temperature. They were so tough that even with the provided sharp steak knife, cutting off an individual rib was difficult. The BBQ sauce was mediocre, and slathered atop a cold slab of tough pork ribs, the dish simply should never have been served. I'm guessing it was prepared yesterday and kept overnight in the refrigerator, but who knows? You do not want to order the ribs. I tried two ribs and left the rest on the table to be cleared away. I'd give them 1.5 on Yelp's 5-star scale. I don't want to dwell on a negative experience. There are quite a few positive Yelp reviews that make me think there might have been an explanation for our experience. But the tab with a 20% tip was $105.66, and I'm not willing to risk returning.
