Wonderful pizza! We got the Tornero 16" delivered and it hit the spot! I'm originally from the East, near New York, and this tasted like it was flown from the city! The pizza had perfect thin and crispy crust. And there was the perfect amount of garlic and cheese. The 16" is large, but the delicate crust and lite toppings make it perfect for three people, or two very hungry ones. Looking forward to ordering again! This is now my go to pizza place! read more

Was ok. Really salty pizza, overcooked wings. The ranch and blue cheese for the wings were both packaged with the blue cheese being inedible. read more

I really like this place a lot. The pizza is so much better than most pizza places I've been to in Oakland. I always get the same thing: pineapple and cheese. Yum! The pizza is chewy and soft, the sauce is flavorful, and the customer service is outstanding. read more

3 stars for quick service and no frills. Nothing amazing but still better than neighboring Burrito Express. I recommend if you're getting a slice but save your bucks for pizza that has better toppings, cheese and sauce. read more

Since moving to the East Bay I've been on a pizza tear, attempting to find favorites and go-tos. I look for the following criteria: --Tomato sauce quality and flavor --Pesto quality and flavor --Delivery options, and does the delivery show up when promised? --Value --Overall quality of ingredients I've tried at least all these places: Amazona's, Pizza Nation, Zachary's, Rustica, Gioia, Bobby G's. And there's of course the standard Cheeseboard and Arizmendi, which I place in a completely different category because of the California-style/sourdough thing. A different experience. I'd rate the above places in this order, in descending order: Gioia, Zachary's, Bobby G's, Amazona's, Rustica, Pizza Nation. On the plus side, Amazona's is solid. Consistent, FAST FAST CRAZY FAST delivery, okay value, decent menu. Fine. Pizza Nation is cheaper but not as good. So depends how much I feel like paying more for the slightly better quality. Overall decent, and I'll return, but nothing to write home about. read more

I found this place while I was searching for a quick spot to grab lunch. Amazona's Pizza is a little hole in the wall place off telegraph and they have limited seating but I feel like places like these have the best food. And too my surprise their pepperoni pizza is fantastic! The gentleman that took my order was very nice and informed me that I'd have to wait 15 minutes for the two slices of pizza I ordered to go. It was only 10 minutes later and I was out the door! The prices are also extremely reasonable and I'll definitely be stopping by there again on future lunch breaks. read more

I ordered from the Yelp app. I had the New York Style pizza which was very delicious and large in size. I was very satisfied with my order and I would try additional food from the establishment. read more

We love this pizza, we usually order delivery and they are always faster than they estimate, and the pizza is hot and delicious.

I got one pizza here a while ago and it was awful. the mushrooms were clearly canned and the dough soggy. I know we have slim pickin's for good pizza in the East Bay, but c'mon... we do deserve better. read more

Ordered for delivery and they came in less than an hour. The Quality Market pizza was amazing - the pesto sauce was incredibly flavorful. I definitely want to actually go to the place to experience it rather than relying on delivery. A little pricy though. read more

I rarely write reviews, but Amazonia's Pizza is perhaps the best pizza I have eaten in the bay area. Bar none. I have been ordering from them for nearly 10 years! As a New Yorker, I am not so impressed with the excuses for crust or the weird non-meat toppings most places out here try to foist on the public. The care most NYC pizza makers take to have the hottest ovens, their special flavor touches and the best dough is not lost to people. (Hint: one place on the west side of NYC, puts olive oil and parmesan in each pan before baking, so the crust is a delight alone!). Always ordering delivery, my pies arrive hot and perfect every time. I order the Amazonia - a creation with linguisa, hearts of palm, red onions,lots of cheese and a great sauce; the crust is just thick enough to hold all that stuff, and thin enough to form an edge that bubbles a bit, with a toasty look that is a result of a well-made dough. It is a perfect pie. The staff are really nice, the service is fast, and the pies are amazing. I keep meaning to try the many other flavors, especially after reading the other reviews, but I am stuck on the Amazonia! Best - pizza - ever! read more

Our place of choice for ordering delivery pizza for work celebrations.

Ordered a regular crust pepperoni with red onions and not super impressed. The onions were sliced laser-thin and I could barely taste them. The dough and crust was just okay... kind of tough to chew but the flavor was not bad. It wasn't great pizza... kind of like what you'd get at a nicer snack stand or something... but at Amazona's you're paying premium price. Probably won't order again. :\ read more

I always enjoy what I get. It's delivered hot and it's so good every time. The deliver people are so sweet! I appreciate that it shows up exactly when they say it will! read more

This place is the best. Get the New York Style Thin Crust Pizza with pepperoni. You won't be disappointed. It is delicious. Plus they deliver. Plus they are really nice. I love you Amazona's. read more

Good pizza, some of the best in the Bay Area, delivery was timely as well. Will definitely be a repeat customer

do yourself a favor - call and say: i'd like the 2 topping special, please for pick up new york style with sausage (the sausage is housemade) (and your favorite second topping) they will say - your order will be ready in 20 mins... your bill will be under $20 (pre-tip) pick up go home consume be very happy. read more

I moved to California fifteen years ago from New Jersey. As a confused eleven year old, I was resistant to all that represented the Golden State. With a little maturity I came to realize that life is better here on all fronts, with one exception. The pizza of California, for the most part, is awful. There are so many mediocre places out here that don't understand the art of sauce, cheese, and crust. Fortunately for me, I stumbled into Amazona's Pizza three years ago while drinking at the Stork Club on Telegraph Avenue. Amazona's is just across the street. I tried one of their calzones, and have been a loyal customer ever since. They get it there. Keep up the good work. read more

Was actually looking for pizza DELIVERY but my neighborhood is cursed. Used my handy Yelp app to find BEST PIZZA in the area for pick up. This place came up tops. Called and within 20 mins was able to pick up my pizza. I would say it was good. Ordered the Cacique. read more

I moved to the East Bay from New Jersey, specifically the area wheee Sopranos was based. Hence the pizza standard is very high. East Bay pizza has been a constant disappointment until I stumbled upon Amazonas. The sauce is exceptional, the ingredients are very fresh and high quality and the balance of crust to cheese ratio is spot on. Bottom line whomever owns this place is not getting lucky...they either are from New York or New Jersey or worked in a pizzeria from there. This will be my goto place for hopefully the next 25 years. Amen! read more

This place has amazing pizza. They make the kind of pizza you wish you could eat when you saw the ninja turtles eat pizza in their cartoon.

Best Pizza in Oakland. The staff is really friendly and all the ingredients are super fresh.

The pizza is good but I'll never order from Amazona's again. My wife just called to order delivery and asked to substitute another vegetable for mushrooms, as we've done 5 or 6 times in the past. The woman on the phone said that they do not do substitutions. When my wife told her that we've substituted items with them many times in the past the woman said "they probably charged you for it and didn't tell you." Beyond that, it is overpriced and usually takes over an hour to deliver a pizza. Never again. read more

I ordered delivery which took 45 min - reasonable and on time. The Caciuqe was the closest to a combination pizza which was pretty plentiful in toppings and decent. However, the crust was borderline chewy/dry. I would never recommend the buffalo wings, they tasted just like the frozen ones from Costco. Mostly soggy. read more

Tried Amazona's for the first time today for a company lunch meeting. I ordered three large specialized pizzas and a large container of caesar salad with a few drinks. The delivery was on time, the pizzas were still hot and the salad and drinks were still cold. We had three 'foodies' at the table and they all loved each pizza. Amazona's makes their own sausage I understand, and I am from Chicago, so it is hard to find good pizza sausage on the West Coast, but theirs was AWESOME. All the ingredients were fresh and the thin crust was crispy and tasty. Will definitely use them again for meetings and for home delivery too. read more

Average. Pizza was soggy and heavy with cheese and toppings. The only pro is that they deliver.

I love the crust, the friendly service AND OLIVES! Green or Black. There goes that twang in my molar.

Ghetto area but well worth it. I got the Jaguar and it was amazing. Usually I don't like sausage on pizza but their Italian sausage is particularly good and has fennel seeds in it. The linguica was also perfectly spiced and cooked. The meat is all high quality. The bacon was an intense amount of bacon which is a double edged sword of delight and diabetes. Amazonas is run by a really nice, small family who I am happy to give my business to. read more

Amazona's pizza is delicious! Delivery is fast and hot. I wish they had online ordering. I don't really understand all the negative reviews on here... read more

I just got a BURNED pizza delivered from Amazona's Pizza. After trying to eat a slice and only tasting the charred burned crust, I called to get either a replacement or a refund. A gentleman took my complaint about the burned pizza and spoke to the owner. The owner said that he made my pizza himself and it was perfectly fine. That really got my goat; I'm staring at burns on half my pizza with a charcoal aftertaste still fresh in my mouth and I'm being told it's not burned and it's perfectly fine. I will never order from Amazona's Pizza again, a restaurant where the owner can't admit to a mistake, but would rather call his customers crazy and wrong. Burned pizza is bad enough, but a nasty owner who does not understand good customer service and instead is abusive to his customers is unforgivable. TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE AND BURNED PIZZA. read more

A hot mess literally This was the worst pizza I have ever had, when it arrived the cheese had slide off the top. there were was so much sauce I could not tell if was soup or pizza and it was just a hot salty mess. I would need feed this pizza to my dog! read more

Their pizza's were surprisigly good. I say that because I thought it was just another place that bakes some gooey dough, puts canned tomato sauce and cheese and call that pizza. But, I had the "Silvestre" which consisted of spinach, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, zucchini, and green olives. Yum! And as a vegetarian, they have quite a variety of veggie type pizza's (besides cheese) under exotic names like the "Lua"(pesto, spinach, green olives, tomatoes, feta,garlic), the "River"(artichoke hearts, tomatoes, basil, red onions, green olives), and the "Flora"(mushrooms, olives, bell peppers, red onions, tomatoes, and garlic). They also have pizza by-the-slice, pasta, calzones, salads, sides, and desserts. The owners are friendly (especially their adorable toddler children running around way past their bedtime) and courteous. So if you're around Telegraph taking a break from Cabel's or the Stork Club, I suggest you check out Amazona's for something new and different. read more

Eh. It was ok. I got delivery and I'm not sure that makes a difference or not. They claim New York style but it was a little too greasy for my liking. It was that greasy where you have to hold the front and back so it doesn't turn into a dripping mess. It satisfied my hunger but I'll be trying some other options before going back to this joint. read more

I ordered a medium mushroom and sausage pizza on a drunken whim. The delivery was prompt and the pizza was piping hot. Our pizza was delicious. The crust was perfect, chewy on the outside and doughy on the inside. The slices were nice and hefty and were able to stand up to the weight of the toppings. They are generous with the sauce so next time I will order it with easy sauce. read more

Twenty bucks for a pizza with meatballs, mushrooms, and kalamata olives on a new york style crust, you are going to have to look really hard to find a better pizza than that anywhere. And the meatballs were awesome, not the lame crumbled italian sausage, this was good stuff. The thin crust was very tasty I did not see any uneaten crust on anyone's plates. They have about a million other combinations of toppings you probably never even thought of but they all sounded really good. If I lived close to this place I would probably never cook again. read more

FINALLY!! New York pizza! Since I've moved to Cali, I haven't had really great New York pizza. Try the extra homemade mozzarella on the pizza. Amazing! The neighborhood is a little scary, but they deliver so who cares! P.S. The blond lady behind the counter is sooo nice. I wanted to give her a big hug! read more

Not only is their pizza AMAZINGLY good, they always get it to me super fast, usually before their 45 minute to an hour time range. And the people are super nice too. 5 thumbs up! read more

Their service is very fast and courteous. However, that sauce is way too sweet. I guess some people like it that way, but blech.

Mediocre pizza, pretty expensive for what it is. I ordered a mahgerita for delivery, which took the full 60 minutes, and the pizza was cold as a dead fish when I received it. In spite of this, the pizza was still mostly edible, although pretty soggy in the middle. And who doesn't put mozzarella on a mahgerita? The tomatoes and basil were pretty tasty though. I'm not sure if I'll order from them again, but if I do, it will definitely be a different pizza. read more
