As a pizza connoisseur, when I heard about Roman style pizza, 'pinsa', with a different dough, I was immediately curious. As they note on their website, pinsa dough is made from a combination of soy flour, rice flour, and wheat flour, creating a crust that is light yet crunchy and satisfying.We ordered the Formaggio di Capra e Spinaci for some greens to go with, and then got the Quattro Formaggi and Prosciutto e Fichi for our pinsas.I find salads from pizza places to be very hit or miss; and Gusto Pinsa's salad was certainly a hit. The salad was perfectly dressed - it had a ton of flavor with the dressing, tomatoes, goat cheese, cranberries and walnuts coming together to provide an interesting textural contrast, with a nice hit of black pepper.The pinsas were the star of the meal though, as expected. Although I'm not the biggest fan of cheese only pizzas, the Quattro Formaggi was excellent! It was super cheesy and salty (in the perfect way), and the splotches of sauce provided nice balance to the saltiness of the cheese.The Prosciutto e Fichi was the preferred pinsa by myself and my partner, with the prosciutto and fig glaze providing a nice saltiness and sweetness that contrasted very well with the Quattro Formaggi.If you haven't tried Roman style pinsa yet, what are you waiting for? These pinsas were delicious and somehow felt much lighter than eating a regular pizza. We will be back!

Super crispy and airy pizza. Popular for takeout because there are only 4 tables inside.

The pizza is a very thin sourdough like and taste so great. We had the margarita and eggplan pizza or pinsa and it was great!

We've ordered from here many times and the pinsa is excellent! We actually ate inside last time which was fine too. The service was fast and the food was great as usual. All the tables were occupied and it was a bit noisy, but it didn't detract from the delicious food.

Wow. This pizza was delicious, soooo many flavor options, and perfectly light and crispy exterior with soft interior dough. Beer and wine selection was nice too.
A cozy place with great service. The pinsa is fresh, high quality ingredients and tastes delicious.

Delicious quick bite before a show at the Masonic. Pizza had a wonderfully crunchy and thin crust. We had the sausage and potato Pinsa and a spinach salad. It was quick and tasty.

Incredible Pizza! Sauce is great, bread is flavorful, cheese is melted to perfection ?The restaurant itself is very clean and the staff is very friendly, will be coming back again. Strong recommendation for anyone that prefers traditional style Italian pizza

We did a quick stop, order, and take out on a Friday evening. Service was pleasant and the pizzas and salad came out quickly. I am a bit of a pizza snob and spoiled by years of New Haven Neapolitan style pizzas. The crust here was as good as any I have had in New Haven - nice flavor and pleasantly chewy. It is a bit thicker but excellent. We had the Diavolo and Quattro Fromaggi. Both were excellent. The pear and prosciutto salad was ok but nothing to write home about. Prices were high but to be expected in SF.

Maybe it’s better if you get a whole pizza? Was looking forward to trying this place because of all the positive reviews, but was sorely disappointed. I ordered a cheese and a pepperoni slice. Both were greasy and obviously spent too much time under a heat lamp. Tried to sit down to eat them in the restaurant but was kicked out because I only got slices? Seems like a strange rule to me…especially when the whole place was empty aside from the staff members sitting in the corner booth. Won’t be back and wouldn’t recommend to anybody looking for a good slice of pizza at a reasonable price.
very good cousin!
