50 Best Pizza Restaurants near Lemon Grove

“Food is good and the service is great.“

“This place is pupper approved! We were doing laundry close by and my pupper kept begging to go in. The staff were so sweet about her refusal to leave the doorway. They talked sweetly to her each time and laughed with her. Unfortunately we did not have time to try their pizza or subs but the customer service was top notch!“

“Awesome family owned business. Great food. Been around for decades.“

“Thee perfect fold with the perfect crunch! You can taste the true perfection in that the family takes pride in making pizza! Fresh ingredients. Perfect crunch! Not overcooked or undercooked. I have to say that this pizza dough was made to perfection! Airy dough paired with great sauce and fresh toppings. You have to give this place a try if you been looking at it or thinking about it. You will not be disappointed. Supporting small businesses.“

“Went in a bit before closing. There wasn't any crazybread ready. I felt a bit guilty to request a fresh batch, but my kids wanted some. Angelo assured me that it wasn't a problem. Great customer service and attitude on the guy. I should add, the breadsticks were bomb!!“

“Thhheeeee absolute BEST pizza on the west coast HANDS DOWN!! Im from Brooklyn, NY and they definitely brought the authentic expirence and taste from home!!! I bring all my friends here! This is one of my happy places! Food-10 Service-10 Location-10 Price-10 😀“

“Outstanding staff! Great food! A must go!“

“Great customer service I had the mobile app glitch called in and the manager Claudia helped me will definitely order again“

“Ok, I am from NY and love pizza. I am not a NYC pizza snob though and welcome all iterations of 'za! I have to say that this pizza is probably the best I have ever had of its type. They are "Roman" slices, meaning focaccia crust. Variety of slice options are insane with creative combinations that are not only imaginative, but insanely delicious. Slices are cooked upon ordering for supreme freshness. I especially like the Lussuria - prosciutto, black pepper, mashed potato, mozzarella and olive oil. (I NEVER thought I would like mashed potato on a slice, but it's insanely good.) The help here is amazing as well. Caesar was working the oven and he gave great suggestions and explained the product well. Very inviting and definitely steered me in the right direction. Need gluten free? They got it! Will make a GF slice for you right on the spot. I challenge anyone to have just one slice. I had to go back for 2 more. Enjoy!“

“Finally! A new pizza shop in La Mesa and it’s delicious. Now I don’t have to go into the Village where parking can be difficult. Love the secret sauce and the craft pizzas. I highly recommend that you give it a try.“

“Came to TNT on the recommendation of a local and holy f*** balls I was blown away. If I had the disposable income I’d buy a private jet and fly to San Diego to eat here once a week and fly home, my carbon foot print would look like a slice of their pizza and I would okay with it cause my belly and soul would be content. Every pizza I have after this will be a disappointment to me.“

“If you are looking for a true Italian experience in San Diego, look no further than Vinarius! We worked with Giuseppe (owner) to host our wedding celebration here back in March, 2023. From the beginning, he was amazing to work with. Incredibly positive and accommodating from the start, we couldn’t have asked for more. The wedding ceremony was planned to be outside and of course, it rained that day. Guiseppe and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, allowed us to have the small ceremony inside the restaurant on short notice and made an incredible meal to follow. Our guests were blown away and we couldn’t have been happier. We recommend Vinarius to everyone we know and that is thanks to Giuseppe and his awesome staff. Grazie mille!“

“Best pizza in the valley!“

“Our waitress today was Maya. She was very attentive! We had a great dining experience today.“

“I went to have dinner with my family. we ordered the family deal which came with an appetizer a large salad a large Alfredo pasta to share and a large pizza we order half al pastor and half meat parade we were 5 and we all left full everything was delicious.Owner was veryhelpful and the food was great 👍we found our new spot“

“HillCrust Pizza is on a completely different level. I have eaten pizza all over Los Angeles and San Diego, but this place has something special that keeps me coming back. I actually make the drive from Beverly Hills just to eat here, and every time it feels worth it. The quality and consistency are unmatched.

The Loaded Hilly Philly Cheesesteak is my favorite item on the menu. The flavor is outstanding, the portions are generous, and the fact that they use halal grass fed meat makes it even better. It is without question one of the best Philly steaks I have ever had. Their pizzas are just as impressive. The dough is organic and non GMO, soft and airy yet with the perfect bite, and the San Marzano tomato sauce gives it a fresh, authentic taste.

I have tried just about everything here and it has all been excellent. The Golden Hill with Mike’s Hot Honey has the perfect touch of sweetness and spice. The Sunset Cliffs with pickled jalapeños has the kind of flavor that stays with you. Even the Margherita, which is usually simple anywhere else, is fresh and full of flavor here. What stands out most is that no matter what I order it always comes out consistent and delicious.

The atmosphere is another reason I keep coming back. The restaurant is quiet, peaceful, and relaxing, making it the kind of place where you can actually enjoy your food without distractions. The staff is also friendly, attentive, and welcoming, which makes the experience even better.

HillCrust Pizza is more than just a pizza place. It is a spot that takes quality seriously and delivers every time. For me it has become a destination, and if I am willing to drive from Beverly Hills just to eat here that should tell you how special it really is.“

“Sisters Pizza has it all; great food; wonderful staff; friendly neighborhood vibe. Love it!!“

“Setting the Standard in every bite, this place is the real deal. No frills, polite service, they know everyone's name (so it seems). There is no secret here, the product they produce is a labor of love and it shows in every... single... bite...“

“This is a great local spot, especially if your looking for pizza by the slice! Great prices for premium ingredients and interesting and innovative toppings! The kind and friendly owner really has a knack for flavors, and is super welcoming. There is also an excellent selection of beer on tap and craft soda.“

“Great food and great service! Food was fresh and expertly prepared! Probably the best service I have ever experienced and the place was busy at the time we were there!!“

“Love this place! sit at the bar every time. Dylan and Christian are great!!“

“Pete’s doesn’t disappoint. Great fast service, incredible flavor and cheap prices for the quality you get. Also, fishing tip… I ordered too much food and we had about half a coney dog left from my nephew (not sure how with how great they tasted but we ate too much) we used it for bait and instantly got hit when the whole group was skunked all day. Foodie approved, fish certified with regret after eating the deliciousness and being hooked.“

“We go here at least once per week and don’t get tired of it because the food is good and they have a large menu. It’s great especially on nights they have live music.“

“We just went with our daughter’s entire water polo team and everyone here was so kind. The owners got a big outdoor table set up for the girls, the food was amazing, and the service was perfect. Hope to come again when we are in San Diego next!“

“Such a wonderful vegan oasis in the San Fernando Valley! As locals know vegan offerings in the valley are limited compared with the rest of the city. I am so happy that I found this place I will be coming here often! Great food and atmosphere all around!“

“Hands down Best Pizza I ever Had me and my wife went to check out uncle joeys pizza for the first time after her Appointment and as we got their we both were greated by Joey very professionally loved he’s attitude towards me and my wife as soon as he brought our pizza the very first bite of the pepperoni and Ham was absolutely amazing we would highly recommend Joeys pizza ? to anyone found us a new pizza spot“

“I am visiting from Washington state and read about The Friendly in an article. I saw that it was close. and thought it would be great to check out. I am so thankful I did. It was absolutely amazing. 10000000/10 would recommend!!“

“Where do I begin!? Bambino's deserves so much support from us in Chula Vista! Because Bambino's truly cares about their community! They generously donated to our local, essential workers during the pandemic...on numerous occasions. The owner Wally & son Louis are the kindest people and hold such high values on running their business. The customer service & food quality is unmatched! Bambino's provided us pizza at Mater Dei Catholic High School football games for the past 5 games!! We plan to continue the partnership as they are so accommodating & easy to work with! This family owned business is a total GEM. Please go support!“

“Great please to get charged“

“The service provided was truly exceptional, making the dining experience enjoyable from start to finish. The staff members were attentive and courteous, ensuring every need was met with a smile. Furthermore, the pizza was absolutely delicious, boasting a perfect balance of flavors and textures. The crust was wonderfully crisp, complementing the high-quality toppings used throughout. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I look forward to returning.“

“Pizzeria Luigi was recommended by a friend, and it was a solid NY-style pizza stop. We ordered a pie with half White Girl and half Capone. We also got two slices of cheese pizza. Both the White Girl and Capone were fantastic, but the White Girl is definitely more memorable. It's got a perfect kick to it (not very hot, but great flavor).

The employees were incredibly helpful and kind. They threw in some garlic knots, which were greatly appreciated and tasted good. We ultimately ordered based on their recommendations, which provided us with a good experience overall.

If you're a tourist (which we were), pay close attention to your GPS, especially at night. We got a bit turned around in some neighborhoods and struggled making it back to the freeway.“

“Amazingly delicious! Can’t wait to go back! From Boston😎“

“When we came in, the guy behind the counter immediately offered us a free garlic knot. After that we ordered and the pizza's came pretty fast. The guy even offered to arrange the tables in a way so we can sit together which was very nice. The pizza itself was really delicious. The prices itself were somewhat high.“

“Valentin was our waiter and he is excellent, the best!“

“Excellent food and the service was splendid.“

“Really yummy pizza by the slice and by the pie and sooooo many options. Fast, friendly service and did I mention delicious pizza? Will definitely be returning to try different menu options.“

“BOMB! Quirky little place serving up some delicious pizza and other Chicago style treats. The deep dish pizza is on-point with the perfect fought-to-cheese-to-sauce ratio. The meat balls are tender and just amazing. Service was super helpful and friendly. Such a great little place.“

“This pizza place is one of the best place in town for the price me and my family eat here every other week. I could name better pizza places but they are way too expensive 🫰 out of my budget. So check it out I'll never go back to Little Caesars again“

“I’ve been here two times and both times, excellent service. Thats one of my favorite things about dining out is getting treated like a king. This place does just that.

And obviously, food was great. The steak was not stringy or chewy at all. Very tender.

Lastly, love the decor and ambiance. Very chic feel to the place from the entrance to the bar to the bathrooms. Would recommend.“

“Excelente Servicio, Excelente Comida, La mejor Chef De Nolita Hall, Michel Peregrino, Muy Recomendable Todo.“

“Great staff and great food.“

“THIS BY FAR IS THE BEST PIZZA EVER, I have been coming here for years and everytime i get something new i fall in love with it even more. The people there are so kind and amazing and it is family owned so you know everything is made with love and care. Thank you for being the best bambinos“

“Amazing food and a testament to being a good citizen of our planet.“

“This place is awesome. However, the floor was a bit dirty and the eating area outside was small and the wood floorboards were a bit cracked. It is also an off-campus place Other than that, great food. You should order from there rather than eat there.“

“My new Go-To spot for Pizza in San Diego! I'm from out of state and man some of the best thin pizza I've had in years. And best overall pizza I've had lately.

The Owner's are very respectful and amazing service. Tip them big to support them as a local business and not corporate. I ate here 3 days in a row while I was in town. You won't get bloated like from other thick pizza spots since it's not heavy on bread or grease.

They have all kinds of toppings for anybody's personal taste. Give them a try and you won't be disappointed! 😁“

“Love the food and amazing service ♥️one a my best place!!!!!!!“
