Palo Alto Pizza Co

Looking for a slice a pizza? They stop serving them at 3pm… Not sure what’s the point.

Showed up at 12:40 and they had 0 slices of pizza ready and was told it would be a 20 min wait. How have you been in business this long and aren’t smart enough to prepare for a lunch rush?

This is the second time I have attempted to try this place. I have tried to get a slice of pepperoni and they either don’t have it or it has pineapple on it. Unfortunately I am highly allergic to pineapple… I have tried waiting for a slice twice and they tell me they won’t be having a pepperoni pizza for awhile and with a bad attitude. I will not be going back

This place is amazing!
Great service, great food!
In love with the Korean BBQ pizza.
Yeli is an amazing cashier and hostess. We were recommended by a friend and we were not disappointed. Definitely coming again!

Not much for ambiance, but you go there for the pizza. It is so good. Wonderful thin crust and most with fresh chopped tomato and basil. Husband had the Korean BBQ chicken and I had the Chicken Bruschetta. Liked them both, but his a smidge better. Think it’s the best thin crust pizza in town.

Best pizza in Palo Alto hands down. Not New York, not Chicago… just right.

They usually have a lunch special Monday-​Friday for a slice of pizza, salad and a drink til. Unfortunately I came in at 3:06 and I missed it. Instead I got the garlic/​pesto bread for 8:50. It’s a good price considering it’s almost like a personal pizza without the toppings.
I like to drown my food with sauce and my order came with ranch/​marinara sauce. Also, I was expecting to pay for additional sauce but they give it away for free. Automatic 5 Stars! Since I work so close, I’ll probably be coming back to try their lunch specials.

Not good pizza.
Generous on toppings.
Pricey.
Nice staff.
Clean restaurant.
Do not plan on going back.

Can’t stand when I call in an order ahead, then show up and see staff eating food in a corner of the kitchen, then proceed to tell me that the food will be a couple of minutes. As I watch the person eating stop (did he even wash his hands) and start making my food, I was so pissed. Never coming back if the owners want to employ a bunch of teenagers that don’t want to have some sort of urgency or priority toward the customer.

Pizza quality is really good and the cost is in line with everyone else. I would highly recommend this place I really like the crust.

I started working on Park Blvd this month so it was time to explore food options in the area and there are plenty. Being scarred by some horrible pizza experiences in Fremont lately, I was really hesitant to try more pizza but the aroma got me in the door. They have a wide variety of pizza by the slice and a huge selections of drinks. I got myself a slice of the supreme and it was delicious. The dough was fluffy and chewy, the toppings were plentiful and fresh. Pizza sauce was just the right amount and the cheese was so cheesy… hahaha. Loved this place, can’t wait to bring the bf here for some good pizza!

I eat here a lot. My friends all think it is absolutely amazing. A nice diner feel, not too loud, not too busy, about $ 13 for a sizable pie and $ 5 a pint of craft beer.
Personally, I find it good and consistent, but as a piscetarian there is no fish and vegetarian options are a bit bland. However the crust and cheese are very good, and my meat eating friends –adore– the traditional meat pizzas.
Best with a group and probably better for the carnivores, but still recommended

Seriously, five stars.
Lots of crust choices (including gluten free), lots of topping choices (such as potato), good prices, quick service, nice outdoor seating.
Near California Avenue Caltrain station — parking goes fast on this street in the evenings.
Check it out!

I am obsessed with this place!
I originally came to this restaurant soley for their $ 7.99 lunch deal, which includes: A slice of pizza (good variety to choose from), basically unlimited salad from the salad bar (I’ve never been stopped going back for seconds lol), and a soda. Really good deal for Palo Alto.
Soon enough, my coworker and I discovered the pesto breadsticks. It is the size of a medium pizza, which they clearly caution you on on their menu. Paired with their AMAZING marinara sauce, I am sure I could die happy eating this.
Since the breadsticks come in such a huge order, my coworker and I usually share that as well as a small/​medium pizza, depending on how hungry we are. Obviously, the pizza is usually not the highlight of my trip, but it’s still good. I’ve tried:
— The Cardinal — My go-​to because I’m a combo-​type of girl. Nothing extraordinary though.
— The Supreme — Decent meatlovers pizza
— BBQ Chicken — Hard to mess up BBQ chicken :)
— The Korean BBQ — Really interesting twist! I’ve only had it once but I would definitely have it again if I was craving something sweet and spicy.
— Chicken Bruschetta — Also a healthiER alternative, with its thin crust and fresh tomatoes and basil.
— Creamy Garlic Chicken — I would skip this one, unless you were in the mood for tasteless pizza. I’ve tired it a handful of times and the blandness is consistent. There’s actually supposed to be garlic in this?
The service is always super friendly. I’m always asking for extra marinara sauce (which may also cost extra), but they are never stingey. The owner of the restaurant must be a huge sports fan– there is sports memorabilia all over the walls. You’ll also have no issue finding a TV playing whatever game your heart desires.

The family was craving pizza and we felt like trying something new, so we Unilocaled around and came across this place! The good thing about this place is the abundance of vegetarian pizzas on their menu. It made ordering a nightmare for us because we were extremely indecisive, but we ended up settling on «The Vegetarian» with half red sauce, half creamy garlic. We also ordered the cheesy breadsticks in creamy garlic, and they came with ranch and red sauce on the side.
The large was pretty small for a standard large pizza, so we were glad we also had breadsticks on the side. I started with a slice of the creamy garlic and thought it was really good, and then I took a slice of the half with red sauce and totally changed my mind. The sauce was kind of sweet and tasted really weird. The breadsticks were REALLY good though– how can anyone go wrong with carbs + tons of cheese?! The ranch was also good, but the red sauce needs some work.
Would I come back? Probably not… that red sauce really killed it for me! I did like the creamy garlic side, but overall the pizza was too bready and fatty feeling.

There are very few good restaurant deals in Palo Alto, but Palo Alto Pizza Company’s $ 7.99 lunch special is a very good deal. For $ 7.99 you get a large slice of decent pizza, a small salad bar salad and a soft drink. I was able to upgrade to a draft beer for a few extra bucks. Gosh, you can’t even get a simple salad for $ 7.99 at most Palo Alto restaurants.
My friend and I were in our bike gear and felt totally at home. We were able to eat outside and keep our bikes next to us. I will be back many more times.

Decent pizza, nothing to write home about. Although, the all-​meat orgy (or whatever they call it, thats just what we used to call it at Woodstocks) was pretty damned good. We got it on thin crust – I really do not care for the thick crust style pizza, unless its deep dish.
Either way, I’ve been trying to find a good pizza place around Palo Alto and have yet to succeed. This place does have a great location, good beer, and lots of TV’s though. Oh, and can’t forget the Bay Area sports memorable!

Tried a few slices and it was pretty good pizza, i think it could have been in the oven alittle longer for a crispier crust and the sauce and cheese werent anything really strong.
i was hoping for crispy underside with molten cheese.
Flavor choices were good and the fried ravioli was good as well.

I came across this place when I was on the hunt for a place that did pizza by the slice. This place not only does pizza by the slice but their pizza slices are fairly big and have thick crust just how i like it.
I came during my lunch break as they are fairly close to my job, located right off of California Street and I was surprised I hadn’t known about them sooner since I’m always in the area. Walking in I noticed they were set up almost identical to Premier Pizza or Pizza California, that was a good sign. They had a few reasonable lunch specials posted as soon as you walk in such as a slice and a soda for $ 8 or two slices for about $ 8. They have about 5 or so different varieties of pizzas available and if what you want is not there you can make a request or see what they have in the oven that will be coming out soon.
Their pepperoni pizza and their creamy garlic chicken are sooo good, I go there just for those two. The pizza is so flavorful, chewy thick crust, fresh grated parm, tons of sauces to dip your pizza in. Everything tasted so fresh and the pizzas are made fresh and aren’t sitting there for a long time.
This is my go to place for slices and a good deal during my lunch break, I recommend coming here if you love great pizza, quality ingredients, and good service.

Consistently perfect crust, fresh salad bar items, and friendly service. Even 1 hour before closing.
My favorite is the italian sausage with red onion and green pepper pizza. Small, 10 inch, plus a small salad is adequate size for 2 of us. Order at the counter, and pizza is ready in 10 minutes.
Street parking, but a few blocks from the busier part of California St, so we always find a spot.
