F-ing incredible pizza. I don't even know where to start. PIZZA SO GOOD you won't want to eat anything else. Seriously every time I'm hungry I'm thinking about this place. I went there ONCE. THREE WEEKS AGO. I'm still thinking about it. Allllllllllllll the time. I can't wait to go back. Yes it's a bit slow. It's 12/10 worth the wait. Order ahead if you're impatient. Yes it's slightly expensive but not at all overpriced. This is not quick cheap sustinence. This is edible heaven. Just go already. (Get the mushroom one.) Don't order to go. Sit down and eat it hot, fresh, PERFECT. PS the background music is really terrible. Bring headphones? read more

I ordered togo today during a rainy Tuesday. As soon as I walked in the staff greeted me and was immediately helpful. The food came out pretty quickly after I ordered online. Pretty much the exact time it says to arrive. Inside the was quaint and had a few small tables to enjoy. Next time I will dine in! The pizza was great. I love the taste of the crust and sauce. It's been a while since I have had a pizza this tasty. read more

Bloom pizzeria - TRADITIONAL MARGHERITA (Bloom Special) - Pizza Near Me - Oakland, California

While our way coming to south bay, we came across this pizza shop with good reviews and decided to give it a try. We called in and ordered ahead, hoping it would be ready when we get there. However this was in a really shady location in Oakland. We did not want to really park our car, and eat inside. We instead went in real quick and grabbed it in a takeout box. We ordered half and half with margherita and garden veggie. It was a great pizza! The crust was thin, and well cooked. The veggies were in a generous portion. The sauce was tangy and well made. read more

We placed an order through DoorDash the other night and tried two pizzas--the Momo Pizza and the Ms. Lolita--along with their house-made meatballs. The pizzas had a thin crust but were nothing particularly special. The meatballs were also quite bland and lacked flavor. I'm glad we gave it a try, but unfortunately we don't plan to order from here again. read more

TL:DR - Great little shop; pizza very good Service - top notch,super friendly Parking - street parking only; neighborhood is tired. Oakland leadership (if there is any) needs to clean up the City to support local shops like Bloom Food - 1. New York pizza was awesome. Thin, crispy 2. Meatballs - Lot so sauce served pipping hot Slightly spicy. Very tasty Check out Bloom if in the area read more

I'm thinking I love this place! It's a go to spot when in the area. Decent prices, ok street parking, and shareable. One of those pizzas that have good crust, good sauce, and good placement of ingredients; and a good place to watch the world go by while eating. I can eat 3 slices unnoticed. Good NY style pizza with nothing too fancy. Staff is friendly. They'll bring out water after you order at the desk. They have hot honey too, for an extra cost. It's a small place with not that much seating though. I never seen it get too crowded around 5 or 6pm. read more

Vegan for 13 years and the vegan pizza here is easily in our top 3!!! When we think of pizza this is what we crave. The cheese melted so well. They use Violife which is our favorite. Their pepperoni is so good. And the crust is divine! It was cooked perfectly. We shared a pizza before a show and then wished they were open late because we would have grabbed a 2nd pizza after the show if they were! I apologize for not taking a pic before we dug in but I forgot because it just looked so damn good. read more

Probably one of the closest pizzas I have had to NY slices. I think it's an easy pick up, it's ready when they say it will be. Very friendly guys, and they handled a homeless, clearly intoxicated man ahead of us well. Gently asked him to move aside and but assured him he will be helped--to stay efficient and help get our order in. Small location, not really for large group sit downs. Highly recommend! read more

Ordered pizza from here for the first time via DoorDash, and I was SO impressed. My partner and I have been craving NY pizza since we return from visiting NYC a couple of months ago - - we had yet to find it...until this place! Highly recommend! P.s. try the pizza with pepperoni, jalapeño, pineapple, and ricotta cheese - it's decadent. read more

Ordered takeout pizza from Bloom last night for the first time. I was happily impressed. The store was bright and clean with friendly efficient service. The pies were perfectly done with a delicious sauce and the perfect amount of cheese and condiments. I was particularly impressed the nice thin crust. Will certainly return for more. read more

We ordered through doordash, and was pleasantly surprised by how good delivered pizza could taste. The crust was thin with a slightly chewy texture. Their tomato sauce is really flavorful and provided a great base for all the yummy ingredients on top. They also have oven-baked wings in either plain or hot buffalo sauce. The buffalo sauce ones were too spicy for me, but if you like hot wings, these are for you. The plain wings were delicious and juicy. We also got some garlic bread, which was crispy and buttery. Overall, a delicious pizza that I'd order from again. (Sorry for the half eaten food pics. We couldn't wait lol.) read more

A pleasant surprise find in Oakland on New Year's Day. Real NY style pizza on the west coast. We ordered the New York pizza pie $26 (large - 8 slices). Plenty to take home. Reasonably priced. Choice of Medium and Large size pizza pies. Pizza was not being sold by the slice at this time. A decent variety in bottled micro brews. No beers on tap. The service was friendly and very welcoming. So many orders were for pickup this day, but the seating was adequate and could easily accommodate a party of 4-6ppl. The restaurant was very clean. Also, the neighborhood felt safe and was clean. We found street parking right in front of the restaurant. I would easily come again when in the area or wanting some NY style pizza. read more

Good solid pizza and by the looks and taste uses better ingredients on the pizza. However, all pizzas should have XXHEAT chili powder instead of crappy chili flakes just like pizzeria Sei (top 9 pizza in the world) read more

I like their pizza so much that I gave in and ordered the MOMO (pineapple, pepperoni, and jalapeño on a ricotta-based white sauce). Yes it was also because they say they donate part of those proceeds to a local animal rescue org, but it's actually pretty bomb. I've also ordered the regular pep and their cherry tomato pizza, all bangers. You can't go wrong! I've ordered in store once and they were very friendly. I've also had their dessert, and the cannoli is dope too. No complaints! Awesome addition to the local grub spots. read more

My pizza was soggy and they gave me a hard time when I'm just tryna order a pizza with a side of garlic butter

That was the best classic pizza I've had in the Bay Area in a long time! Sauce, toppings, crust were all spot-on (ordered the New York). I ate in, and it was a sweet, clean, nice space, with attentive service. Previously I had a takeout pizza, also delicious, but having it fresh out of the oven was better. I also had a delicious cannoli, again just exactly how you want it. (They don't make the shells but they do fill them there.) I'll be back! read more

Found this place on Yelp and decided to stop by. Location has lots of street parking and the inside has lots of seating and framed posters on the wall -- good vibes. We came on a random weekday maybe an hour or two after they opened and we were the only customers in the restaurant but there were people coming in for to-go orders. We decided to try the pizza Margherita and the MoMo, we asked for no jalapeños. We loved both but my personal favorite was the Momo. The Momo looks plain but it was so good especially with the hot honey drizzled on top. The pizzas were filling but light -- not the greasy kind that makes you feel disgusting afterwards. We highly recommend if you've been on the fence about trying this place! We will be back to try the rest of their menu. read more

Bloom pizzeria - The Brooklyn and the supreme Both incredible - Pizza Near Me - Oakland, California

"Bloom" is a New York style pizzeria in downtown Oakland, that says it's got the best pizza in town! Opened in Nov 2022, this pizzeria offers NY Style pizza, calzones, salads, wings, meatballs, desserts and drinks. I got a tip from another Yelper that I should go try this place, so I went by to grab some takeout on a Sunday. I ordered the Supreme Calzone and a Large Caesar Salad. Staff were really friendly. This restaurant has a familiar layout. Narrow dining room, with the counter in the back. My food was ready on time, and I was on my way. I like calzones, it's like a pizza turnover. A calzone is a folded pizza. Some places put slashes across the top. Bloom makes a really good calzone, I like it. The dough isn't thick. When you take a bite, you taste the rich fillings. The menu says: "Ricotta blend with buffalo mozzarella, sausage, pepperoni, onions, spinach, mushroom & pecorino romano." Price $15. That's a fair price for a good well-balanced calzone. Includes free marinara sauce. Also, I ordered a Large Caesar Salad. Now everytime I see some place charge over $10 for a salad, I have to wonder if it's worth it. I think this salad is worth the price. Thick grilled white meat, crunchy lettuce, croutons, parm cheese, and caesar dressing. The key thing for me was the big chunks of chicken weren't dry and were easy to eat. Calzone + Caesar Salad= balanced meal, - everyone is happy. read more

A great easy find in Oakland! Reasonably priced and they can pump out the pizzas so quick! We ordered two pizzas on a Sunday night and got them in less than 25 minutes. The ambiance inside is cute! They've decorated the tiny spot just like a New York pizza spot. The MoMo had pineapple and honey -- two very sweet items but it balanced out well with the jalapeños. They also use Garza olive oil! read more

Bloom pizzeria - Traditional Margherita and MoMo (Chef's special***) - Pizza Near Me - Oakland, California

Was in the mood for a local pizza joint while visiting Oakland, California. The reviews look good on this place so I decided to go pick one up. Not in the greatest neighborhood and very hard to find, parking is very limited out front. I ordered a small sausage and pepperoni. It wasn't bad, but it was very light on ingredients and it wasn't worth the $25 price tag. The store was nice inside even though it was small and Service was friendly and quick. Would have given a four if it wasn't for the price and the lack of ingredients. regretfully, I forgot to get pictures. read more

mediocre pizza, mediocre salad. Like what I'd get in an airport. I expected better from the 4 1/2 stars.

Located in a convenient place and the pizza is good. I usually come here for lunch to have a slice but it's different rules every time , can't get more than one slice per person, the "sell out" of slices before 2 pm. Plan on buying a whole pizza even though they advertise selling slices The service is okay, they're usually friendly. read more

Me and a partner visited a rainy Saturday evening. Parking was annoying, but there was also a show at the New Parish that evening. I am not sure why, but I for some reason thought they had slices (fyi, they don't, ha!). The space was clean and cute. There were a variety of small 2-seat tables. There were a couple larger tables that could seat 4-6. The staff person was kind, welcoming, and answered all of our questions. You have the option for table service or take-out ordering. We were in a hurry, but ended up deciding to take our time and do table service. They noted that food would take about 15 minutes, and we were already running late, so thought why not. We ordered the Caesar and a 12" Momo. It may be hard to believe but we've found a way to bridge the divide of pineapple on pizza by ordering pineapple on half of the pie. Lol. It was on this day that I learned that it works for us ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The salad portion was pretty moderate. Not too small and not huge. An ok value. The pizza was pretty good. My partner noted that despite the smaller pie, it is 'foldable'. I wish I could taste the heat a little more and I thought the pineapple/honey kinda cancelled each other out. However, I still enjoyed the pie and enjoyed eating the heated up leftovers. I'm not sure I'll be rushing back, but would consider it a solid option for a future meal given how nice the staff were. read more

Authentic New York pizzas here! Please make your way to this spot in Uptown. Sure, a bit sketchy in the hood, but the delicious pizza is worth the trip. I placed an order online and pizza was ready in 10 minutes! Well balanced ratio of cheese, pizza sauce and bread. Make sure to throw the pizza into the oven to reheat for a few minutes - it makes the bottom of the crust so crispy! read more

The service is courteous, thoughtful and readily available after serving food. The space is small and cozy, clean and has an upbeat but not overwhelming music selection. Though my partner and I wanted to like the food more, it was only mediocre. The ingredients on our pizza didn't taste so fresh, and the crust was overwhelmed by the greasy weight of the cheese/other toppings. read more

Service was definitely slow, but the calzone had great flavor. I wasn't impressed with all the fly's in the establishment. Please shut the front door or install something to catch them. Definitely take your food to go! read more

Yerrrrr! Queens kid here. The Bay Area--and, truthfully, much of California--has long suffered from what I can only describe as a dire pizza drought. Yet, a rare few possess the fortitude and skill to conjure a truly authentic slice, and to them, I am profoundly grateful. This pizza evokes such a strong sense of home that I found myself calling the pizzeria in Queens where I once worked, just to tell Sebastian, the owner, how much better this pie was. In classic New York fashion, he told me to go throw myself in front of a city bus--a heartfelt expression of affection in his own way. If your preference runs to thick, doughy crusts and tomato-laden concoctions that resemble above-ground swimming pools for rodents (with all due respect to Jon Stewart), then by all means, head to Chicago. But if you seek genuine, exceptional pizza, Bloom Pizzeria is where you belong. read more

First time. The photo attached to the online ordering menu is a little deceiving. The pizza is actually covered in spinach. The photo displays green bell peppers...but the description is clear of what's on there. I got a 16" with +$3.00 vegan cheese. I asked for half and half: half with only vegan cheese. Please d0uble slice thanks. I get the order they did the whole pie as a garden veggie and did the cheese under the veggies as a half vegan cheese, half regular cheese. Half and half is what it is. One half this and one half that. One half garden veggie - other half only vegan cheese. I waited while they remade the pizza. For people that are 100% plant based, there is a possibility you may get have some bits of dairy here and there. For the first time- It was aiiggght! After my second slice I got a slight headache... I hate feeling bad after I eat. Hence the reason for the one . read more
