This place rules so hard. The ambience is incredible, the food is fun and I love the surrounding arcade and batting cages. The service is great too! Get some friends together and head to this spot for some fun and food!

Mediocre pizza and way overpriced. Charged $2 for pepperoni and another $2 for extra sauce. All the games were off so we couldn't play anything. I won't be

I may be a bit biased as a New Yorker, but my experience at Central Park Pizza left me with mixed feelings. While the staff was friendly, the pizza itself was a letdown. The slices were thin on cheese, light on sauce, and the crust, almost too thin. At $3.75 a slice, it felt like paying for a slice of bread with a hint of cheese. I appreciate the kindness of the people there, hence the 2-star rating, but the overall quality left much to be desired.

Love this place! Service is always great along with the food! The chicken wings are amazing and my go to pizza is just a extra large cheese pizza with extra cheese. It's one of my favorite pizza places for sure.

As a Native New Yorker I think this is just Blasphemy to call this Central Park Pizza I mean you can call yourself anything but why NY anything in the name this pizza was 1.5 stars at best!!!

I used to make this my go to for pizza. Pizza was good, hot and crispy. Salads not so much. They recently introduced an on line service with multiple fees and outrageous delivery cost. I will no longer order from Central Park as there are pizza places with fewer fees. I don't recommend them anymore either.

Before i even taste the pizza let me start off by telling you that i have not received this good a service in a while. While i was ordering the cashier made sure i was aware of a coupon they have and gave it to me to make sure my order is cheaper, it just happened to apply to exactly what i wanted.That was awesome, saved me 10$.While waiting for my pizza and knots the cashier came up and asked if i wanted a free drink, I politely declined but it is a hot day and that is a very kind gesture.The atmosphere is very nostalgic, and i even like the vibe of being a part of a “batcade” (baseball batting and arcade). Smells like great pizza here too.Service is fast and efficient, delivery is free, i don’t see any downsides, food should be ready any moment and i will continue writing, hopefully they don’t disappoint.The pizza-Cheese pizza was amazing. The char on the bottom was perfect, just thin enough but not too thin. Great sauce and great cheese, one of the better NY style pizzas i’ve had in LAHawaiian pizza was totally solid, a lil bit too much pineapple for my personal liking but that just comes down to taste, everything was super well cooked and the flavors felt fresh.Garlic knots were okay. Not the best i’ve ever had but not the worse. I would personally avoid them and maybe try a pasta next time.

Unfortunately I find myself having to write this review to possibly bring certain things to the attention of management / owners (that not only I have noticed have changed but other colleagues and neighbors have too ) The one star review is for the uneducated lack of customer service employee that i believe now "works" evening shifts Michelle or Nichelle I believe she said her name was. (does anyone know where the other girl & the really nice gentleman that worked there for years went to or if they still work there?? The girl with the Disney ears tattoo, Maryleen I believe? I tried to spark conversation & this girl gave me a completely uncalled for attitude & told me "she doesn't work here anymore what are you going to order we're busy") . Several times now we have gone (family & friends all agree) & she lacks emotions or even making you feel welcomed! It's almost Like she's doing you a favor by even giving you your food! not to mention the fact that if she's not on her phone or on a call she's standing there with her hands in a big baggy sweater talking to the gentleman in the back about others. My wife also pointed out the nails she wears that she also doesn't even bother to wear gloves to cut the pizzas with? (I thought this wasn't allowed at kitchens?) I'm sorry I thought I was entering an establishment in Burbank not in the middle of south central ? Maybe there's been a change of ownership?? Or something? To explain the sudden "we just hire anyone now " vibe that I've had to deal with & it's honestly more than likely the reason my self & others in our circle won't be coming back to this place anymore. Wednesday we gave it one last shot and let me just say if I was getting paid to be on a personal call cussing like a sailor I probably wouldn't care either about missing out on customers. Their AMAZING FOOD is the reason we kept coming back but it's not worth trying to give your business to a small family business when you no longer feel like family & it's dreadful having to deal with an employee with such lack of professionalism on your family pizza nights.

Good nyc style pizza. Used to come here every now and then before the pandemic. Decided to give it another try. Crust and cheese where on point but the ingredients and sauce lacked some seasoning. Even the pesto was bland, which is a really hard thing to do. Head scratcher lol. Kind of disappointed. Maybe I'll give it another try down the line but I'll just stick with pepperoni and cheese.

Finally some good pizza! Best I have had since moving from NY
Hands down the best pizza in LA. Pricey we got a XL cheese and pep with 4 drinks and it was about 40 bucks. Only suggestion I would have as they are due for remodel in the sitting area but it does give a classic nostalgic old school pizza joint that you would go to after a little league baseball game. But they need a new fountain vendor the lemonade was watered down and trash. Staff was super friendly had great conversation and we're very accommodating

Central Park Pizza, tucked away in foul territory behind the line of home plates in front of the restaurant at Burbank's Bat Cade (baseball/softball batting cages) is a quirky locale for the best pizza in town. We usually have their pizzas, and salads delivered directly by their friendly, appreciative family workers (avoiding GrubHub, Uber Eats, delivery companies my wife and I don't like). Their pizzas are New York-ish which, as a Brooklyn native, I appreciate. Also, surprisingly, their deserts -- carrot cake & cheese cake -- are top notch.

The pizza crust was great and I had good service on takeout. The price has gone up quite a bit and there is no ambiance. I'm torn between a 3 and 4 star rating.

Hidden inside the batting cages is a good pizza place. It's a take on New York style pizza, simple & too the point. Their small one topping & small drink is a good deal for one person. Well worth going up from the 2 piece pizza & drink deal. The staff is friendly. Only wish they served beer.

Four words... TRUE NEW YORK PIZZA!!! It's a quirky little store, tucked away behind a batting cage on Victory in Burbank, but if you're a NY transplant pining for a slice, THIS is your place. If you've never had NY pizza and you want to know what the hubbub is all about, grab a slice, fold it in half (because it's NY BIG) and let it drip all over the paper plate as you learn. You won't be disappointed. :-)
