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.“

“Absolutely wonderful experience. Kind, polite. Nice to talk to and I absolutely appreciate that. But this pizza pie is on point. It's delicious. It's clean. It's light you eat a whole pot every few weeks and do it a dough cleanse and it takes everything out of your body. It's wonderful. Nothing else can do that.“

“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 😀“

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

“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.“

“Best pizza in the valley!“

“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!“

“Wow! This was the best pizza I have had in a long time. The crust was crispy and chewy. The sauce had so much flavor the cheese to toppings ratio was spot on. The pepperoni tasted so good. Like pepperoni is supposed to. When we first got out of the car you could smell the pizza cooking, it was all I could do to not eat a slice while driving home. We will definitely be back.“

“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!“

“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!!“

“Had a great meal and our server (Kezi) was super cool, very friendly and attentive. Food was so good. Got the spicy cucumbers, little gem Caesar, Blitzkrieg, and Margherita. Everything was very tasty! I loved the Caesar, my friend loved the cucumbers. The pizza: crust was on the thin side but sturdy, nice chew and char, pepperoni was perfect (cup peps, crispy, yummy); Margherita was an excellent of the classic.

Sat outside and it was very lovely, and they have lots of seating inside. Will definitely go again, and if they deliver, will absolutely order!“

“The food was outstanding. The service was great. Tyler was awesome. 5 stars“

“I found Angry Petes Pizza on istanstgram and had to try it out. The Pizza was good but the sauce was a little sweet for my taste. The onion rings was out of this world. looking to return soon. the Mackinaw island fudge is a plus.“

“A standout spot for truly unique pizza that somehow manages to feel both creative and comforting at the same time. Every topping feels intentional and perfectly balanced, creating flavors you really do not find just anywhere.
Some personal favorites have quickly become the go to choices. The New Yorker is everything you want in a classic style pizza with something extra that makes it memorable. The pepperoni and mascarpone is ridiculously good, rich, a little indulgent, and completely crave worthy without going too far.
What I also really appreciate is how affordable it is for the quality. It hits that sweet spot of treat yourself food that still feels easy to come back for often.
I do not eat pork, so I especially value the variety of non pork and vegetarian options. The sweet potato and eggplant pizzas might sound unexpected, but they are executed so well and end up being some of the most memorable pies we have tried.
We have explored several combinations and loved each one. The option to split a pizza into two flavors is a game changer, and the recommendations from the team are always spot on.
On top of everything, the owners and service are genuinely friendly, welcoming, and amazing, which makes the whole experience even better.
We have been coming almost every week since discovering this place, and it just keeps getting better.“

“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.“

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

“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.“

“I really love this place. It’s always very clean, and both the staff and the owners are genuinely kind, welcoming, and friendly. Every time I come here, I don’t feel like just another customer — I truly feel like part of the place.

Even when I stop by to pick up orders for deliveries, they always greet me with a warm smile and a positive attitude, which honestly makes a big difference.

Overall, it’s a wonderful place with great people. I highly recommend it.“

“I tour all over the country with bands, I am the pizza connoisseur! This pizza was absolutely hands down the best I have had in a very long time through out all my travels across our country! Everything, from the crunchy of the crust, the sweetest sauce that was just amazing! Thank you for a great pizza!!! The best!! Can't wait to get back again soon!!! The staff was kind and respectful and I felt safe and sound in a clean environment!! You rock!!!“

“The best eggplant parm around“

“Absolutely love this place. been here multiple times always the best, a whole pie or a slice. happy. the sauce is so good it's like a sweet basil italian. it's thin and I normally like thicker crust but it is so good. a staple in my home minimum once a month“

“Really good pizza by the slice here. The owner was friendly on the way in and the way out. The pizza comes out krispy and delicious. Thin crust and full of flavor. They have yummy desserts available too. Patio seating available and a small dining area. There’s free parking in the lot behind the liquor store. Definitely recommend Fiori’s great pizza at a great price!“

“I’m from Jersey and a tough critic when it comes to pizza on the west coast. Slice house has high quality ingredients and I’ve enjoyed eating there, they can do basic or speciality slices well. My only criticism is they don’t always cook toppings fully (most like crispy pepperoni!) and when getting delivery or grabbing take out, your food will be cold. My advice would be to keep the pizza in the oven a little longer and keep the pizza on top of the oven when you’re waiting for customer’s take out/delivery. This will increase your stars and the customer experience!“

“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.“

“Just tried this pizza and it was amazing! The crust was perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside. The sauce had great flavor and the cheese was melted just right. Every bite tasted fresh and well made. Definitely one of the best pizzas I’ve had in a while. I’ll for sure be coming back again!“

“I stumbled upon this place while on vacation, and I’m so glad I did! The food was absolutely amazing you can really taste the quality and care in every bite. Beyond the food, the service was outstanding; the staff made me feel incredibly welcome from the moment I walked in. It was the perfect, memorable breakfast to start my day. Highly recommend if you're in the area.“

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

“Great pizza!! This location is very convenient, quick and the pizza is amazing!! Our whole family loved it. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a new place to order from! We will definitely be back!“

“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!“

“I like there service and food are very Delicious“

“We eat the pizza and salad at least once a week. The prices are reasonable and the food is great. But let's talk about the staff. Sharpel (not sure I spelled it correctly) this guy remembers every order we've placed. He has such an bright smile. Gunna miss this place when we move back to Arizona. Great job pizza people 🤗“

“Been going there over 30 years.. Forget those chain pizza places, seriously, this place always feels like home when I go. That guy has heart, and his dough and sauce are on point! Keep it up Sam! Much Love.. I can't believe no one else has posted here till now.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
After living in San Diego for 10 years, I finally found the pizza I’ve been searching for — and I couldn’t be happier!

This place makes pizza with tuna, green olives, and eggplant, just like back home. The moment I took my first bite, it brought me straight back to my country and all the memories I grew up with. The flavors are amazing, the dough is perfect, and the ingredients are fresh and generous.

The service is also excellent — friendly, welcoming, and makes you feel like family.

I’ve been waiting years to find a place like this, and now that I did, I’m definitely coming back again and again. Highly recommended!“

“Great please to get charged“

“Always have a middle Sicilian slice ready for me when I walk in. Mike and his staff are wizards at creating some of the best NY style pizza in San Diego! a fellow New Yorker, I'm there once a week for obvious reasons. His staff is awesome and they have my order memorized. A must try for those who truly love NY style Pizza!!“

“Chicago style pizza at its finest. Ordered two slices from the case and it was great! Highly recommend.“

“Randee is great! I’ve been coming here for a couple of years and the customer service is always solid. I came in about 10 minutes before closing and Randee was already starting to close up, but he still took my order without any issue. I told him my hungry girlfriend sent me, and he got straight to work. Really appreciate the great service.“

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