    Crazy deals! Very affordable and too good!
    Joshua D.

    Absolutely the best pizza in town for all of the right reasons this place is a must try! The service we can start there top notch fast, friendly and helpful. Chevy is just the kind of person you want to support genuine and cares about his business and it shows plus works very hard! The place is super clean and helpful also has the liquor store next door that has everything if they don't have it ask him they will bring it in for you. They carry Happy Dad which makes me Happy! Now back to the pizza I got the Gyro pizza which was just amazing plenty of toppings so I could only eat a couple of slices and my wife loved it and she could only eat one slice. The ingredients are quality and the presentation is something you would see in a fine dining restaurant. The kicker is the place is extremely affordable too inexpensive of you ask me. If you live within 45 mins of this place you should come get a couple of items and make sure to stop in next door to grab a drink too!

    Great addition to the neighborhood, fast and friendly service. The pizza was amazing, loaded with chicken, bacon, and a delicious drizzle of ranch. They've got a nice variety and a cool mural on the wall!

    Sweet teriyaki wings

    I got the Supreme Pizza and the sweet teriyaki wings and it tasted incredible. Very fast service and my husband 100% approved. We will def order again and so happy we have a go-to pizza place in the area now.

    Cheese bread

    This food is AMAZING!! Pizza like no other!! Super friendly, clean environment and very fast! All their stuff is fresh and they don't skimp with anything. My favorite is the cheese bread! This picture doesn't even describe how delicious it is. You have got to give it all a try for yourself!

    Pierre's is a fantastic find in the heart of La Mesa Village! The brilliant chef, Zion, is not only…read moreimpressive in stature, but his recipes for pizza pies are so unique and take your senses on an unexpected thrill ride. First of all, I've not really been a huge deep dish fan. And these are hefty pies! But once you let your teeth sink into a slice, you are delighted by the crunch and crispness of the edges and yet the delicate lightness of the dough in the middle. How does he do that? It's not heavy. But it's thick on flavor. The classic is the pepperoni, with or without jalapeños (for those who like some heat). Those lil' meat discs are fired to perfection w/ a perfect toasty crunch. That's how I like it. So good. The marinara is just right for me. It's not overflowing and trying to cover up anything. But the spices and combo are well balanced. Ok now, you gotta try a specialty pie. They are orderable on certain days depending on what sources are available that week. Or whatever is cooked up in the chef's mind! I think my fave is the Best Spud (seasoned potatoes, 3 cheeses, black garlic miso ranch, gojugaru and chives...) and w/ a bacon option! We have ordered delivery (DoorDash or Localby Toast) and we've ordered online and picked up at the window, and since Hoffers Cigar Beer & Wine Bar opened a couple weeks ago, we've ordered online and they deliver it right to our table next door! It's such a convenient set up for a relaxing evening. Pierre's hours are 5pm to whenever they sell out. And only Wednesday to Sunday. Pierre's is a family business and right now is working inside of Public Square Coffeehouse which is also their family business. So, if you want to go there, go to Public Square and you'll be home! You can enjoy your pizza on site at a sidewalk table or a cozy table inside. It's seriously, worth every penny. For more pics and inspiration, check out their IG https://www.instagram.com/pierrespizzaplace?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== ...omgosh, I totally forgot about the sauces for dipping!! Off the chain flavor experiences! Not that the pizza even needs more flavor. But these options bring it all to a "ho nubba lebbo!"

    Love this spot, the pizza is PHENOMENAL…read more One weekly special we had with mushrooms is something I can't stop dreaming about. Go to pizza is the pepperoni (added the picture), the pepperonis get nice and curled and the pools of oil and cheese are so flavorful. The whole pie is more than enough pizza for two people to share. They have a weekly special that you can ask about too. Don't sleep on Pierre's! Inside Public Square coffee shop in downtown La Mesa which is crazy busy during the day but in the evening Pierre's is calm and a great spot for a pizza pick me up.

    I think my favorite overall pizza or at least one of my favorites. I ordered a whole pizza online,…read morepepperoni, mushrooms and guero peppers. It's the only place I know of that has guero peppers, they are mildly spicy maybe half as spicy as jalapeños they do add up as you eat it though. What I like most is the crust it's a bit more chewy than other NY style pizza. The pepperoni were flavorful and nicely charred. The guero peppers added a mild spice and good flavor. The pizza is somehow juicy and the tomato sauce has a nice intense, almost tomato paste flavor. Ordering online was easy and the pizza was ready in the estimated time. They are located to the right of Vons next to a sushi restaurant. They also have pizza by the slice if you walk in. But it's so good and I don't mind ordering a whole and reheating the next day. They do reheat well too the crust is both thin and crispy but still has that beautiful chew.

    Paid by card. Pizza Standard is located in a plaza and offers a lot of plaza parking. I had no…read moreissues ordering to go on a Friday night and was told 35 min wait. When I got there the line was out the door. I had to wait 45 minutes. It was worth the wait! I ordered a cheese, Margarita, and truffle. I would say the truffle was my favorite. The mushrooms were so good! I would recommend this place and would go back. Make sure you order well in advanced since this place is busy.
