Dani's House of Pizza

I only had a plain slice here, and while it isn't quite my style, it’s worth a try. I see why people like the pizza. The sauce is heavily applied and has loads of sugar in it, making it a bit too sweet for my taste. The cheese has that familiar, slightly plastic texture, but because it’s loaded with so much sauce and cheese, it's definitely a 'juicy' slice. My main critique is that the toppings weren't spread out enough to the edges, leaving the crust a bit dry. That said, the crust itself is decent. On the plus side, the staff was fast and friendly, and the vintage atmosphere looks really cool. I’d definitely go back to try some other items off the menu.

Gem of an old school pizza place! What makes it even better is that 1. It has a ridiculous and large cold beer selection fridge and 2. The pizza is absurdly amazing. Love that plain slice sauce has a touch of sweetness to it as when adding pepper flakes or hot honey makes this a perfect combo. 3. The pesto slice is unlike any other I’ve had and is a signature slice. 4. The prices are still civilized and not blown out of proportion like the hipster pizza joints in the city.

Pizza is unlike the usual. Regular slices and the extra sauce have a sweet taste. Pesto slice is rich in flavor, top tier. Adding sauce to both is a must, but definitely try without it first. Getting a seat can be difficult as its a very small space!

I had a disappointing experience here. The restaurant mainly takes cash, and since I didn’t have any on me, I used Apple Pay. I was told there’s a $10 minimum for card payments, so I had to buy three slices of pizza just to meet that requirement, which I was okay with. After placing my order, I realized that their pesto pizza does not come with red tomato sauce on top. I politely asked multiple times if I could add red sauce to one of my pesto slices. Instead of accommodating a simple request, I was told it would cost an extra $0.50. I explained that I didn’t have cash and had already paid using Apple Pay, but they insisted I’d have to meet another $10 minimum just to charge the additional $0.50. That felt completely unreasonable. What made the experience worse was the attitude I was told “nothing is free in life,” which felt unnecessary and unprofessional. Overall, very disappointing customer service. I understand policies, but there should be some flexibility and basic courtesy for small requests like this.

Update: I’m so happy to see that the dining room has reopened. It’s wonderful to be able to dine here again. The staff are kind and sincere, the place has a warm neighborhood charm, and the food feels honest and comforting. I love their signature sweet tomato sauce, both on the pizza and in their classic Italian-American dishes.
