Del Popolo - Potato pizza - Pizza Near Me - San Francisco, California

We hadn't had their pizza in like a decade and it was last out of the truck, but it was great to catch two last pies before they closed up shop. We started with the English peas and asparagus, solid way to taste Spring. Ghoulish pizza or not, the 'Nduja was the standout, though we did like the potato pizza. Back patio was perfect, dangly lights, avocado and fig trees, jasmine climbing all over, and even a mousy sous chef or two. Great service despite our table being tucked into the inside corner of the ramp. No room for the olive oil cake but took the ritual two slices home. read more

Del Popolo - Margherita - Pizza Near Me - San Francisco, California

Coincidentally decided to book a reservation here, and then heard the next day that they were shutting down! Sad news, because we really enjoyed the pizza here! The service was great. It was amazing being able to watch them, make the pizza dough fresh. We also had the cauliflower which was honestly really good a bit oily, but the taste was phenomenal and my meat eating friends had the crap which they were presently surprised by. The only bad thing is, we did come on a very hot day, so it was very hot inside the restaurant. We had the margarita pizza, the trumpet mushroom, and then the sausage one. The price for the quality of the pizza is honestly unmatched. We thought it was so reasonable even the trumpet mushroom and the meat pizza which usually have a higher up charge at other restaurants were in the mid-20s. Would definitely love to grab another pizza here before they close read more

Pretty good for dinner! We visited Del Popolo on a Thursday evening, having made a reservation in advance. Our host led us through the interior which featured a huge wood-fired pizza oven, dim lighting, and a cool gallery wall of old portraits. However, we were seated on the back patio, which was a bit secluded and quieter. I skipped drinks and ordered the Marinated Beets appetizer to share with a friend. These were fantastic! The beets were perfectly cooked and paired so well with the goat cheese and pumpkin seeds. I also tried some of the Crispy Cauliflower, which was also top-notch. For pizza, the only protein option was pork (which I don't eat), so I went with the classic Margherita. This was pretty solid, although Neapolitan pizza isn't typically my favorite. The portion size was generous and I had a few leftover slices that went great with hot honey the next day. Service was friendly and relatively quick! read more

I was excited to try this place, but the food was a major letdown to me. We made a reservation for the back patio, and the patio was really cute. To start, they only have a QR code menu, and my phone wasn't working, so my partner and I had to share a menu on his phone. We got the focaccia to start. It was alright, but in desperate need of an olive oil dip. It also was one giant piece, where we had to break off our own pieces. Ok flavor of the actual bread, but overall a miss. Next, we got the marinara pizza and the Nduja pizzas. The marinara was SO bad - I can't recommend NOT getting this pizza enough. The lack of cheese is questionable, but the garlic and oregano flavors were just not it. The Nduja was also a major miss, the scamorza affumicata cheese was.... unique, but not great. And the sausage was also unique, but there were like ~10 pieces on the whole pie. The service was alright - a bit rushed and a couple small requests were forgotten. But the food was soooo overpriced and really not good, and IMO in need of a major refresh/overhaul. read more

Oh Del Popolo thank you for always fulfilling my Neapolitan pizza craving. I haven't been here in a long time, but it's still as good as it used to be! For starters, my mom and I ordered the Caesar salad and the beets appetizer. The beets were paired with herbed Humboldt fog goat cheese, chervil, and pumpkin seeds. It was a great flavor combo, but it just needed a little salt. The Caesar salad was also really tasty but wish it had a more sardine flavor. We ordered sardines to be added and that fulfilled our salty craving. Personally, the pizzas are a little soggy for my liking and wish they were a little more flaky/crispy but the flavor profiles are amazing. We ordered the potato pizza with guanciale and the Margherita and we were so pleased with the bold flavors. The potato pizza has a rosemary kick and the potatoes are so thin that you don't even realize you're eating carbs on carbs. The sauce on the Margherita pizza is also amazing. Don't forget to ask for their chili oil on the side! Besides the amazing food, the service was really amazing and the overall ambiance is very welcoming for a date night or family dinner! read more

The crust was so chewy and soft with a great charred flavor. I got the potato pizza and it was really yummy. Despite the pizza having potatoes on it, it felt surprisingly really light and I think it's because the dough. We also got Hugo spritz and they were good. Another great pizza spot in sf!

Neighborhood staple. Go on a nice evening and grab the patio table at the far end and feel like you have the whole place to yourselves. We love everything. Last time we tried the crab which was messy but still delicious. The pizza has a nice char on it. The olives are warm and salty. The people are always warm and friendly. Sad to see it go. Excited for whatever comes next. read more

Even tho the service was really slow at first the vibes were right and the food was really good, which made up for the slow service. Enjoyed a glass of Lambrusco, the burrata with persimmon, pomegranate, and arugula, very fresh and balanced. Caesar salad was yummy but I didn't like the parm fried crumble bits, I prefer regular parm. Next was the potato onion pizza, the dough they used is phenomenal, sourdough in texture and flavor it seemed. Really yummy and chewy with a bit of stretch and didn't fall apart or flop too bad, potatoes were creamy and soft. Kiwi sorbetto for dessert and omg they achieved a really potent flavor. Great meal. read more

Solid pizza + wine bar near the SF Masonic. ​Came with a friend around 5:30 p.m. on a Thursday. I recommend making reservations, as they fill up quickly, even on weeknights! The weather was beautiful, so we snagged a table in their garden patio. ​We ordered meatballs and the shishito peppers to start, and corn pizza to share. For drinks, my friend ordered a glass of their Vouvray Chenin Blanc, while I took advantage of their non-alcoholic options and tried an NA Negroni and a glass of their NA Riesling. ​The wines (both regular and NA) were top-tier, especially the Riesling which paired perfectly with the pizza. However, I could pass on the NA Negroni next time. While it was beautiful to look at, it lacked flavor and was too sweet for my taste. ​The meatballs were surprisingly amazing. They had a rich, savory flavor and were definitely worthy of a repeat order. The pizza crust had a nice chewy char, but the jalapeno and corn flavor combination was a bit boring. The sweetness from the corn felt flat, almost like canned kernels sprinkled on top after the pizza was baked. Perhaps charring the corn beforehand would elevate the flavors here? ​Overall, Del Popolo is a solid dinner spot if you're already in the neighborhood, but I wouldn't go out of my way for a visit. If you go, enjoy the wine selection and those meatballs! read more

Went here for a birthday dinner and was transported to what felt like another land sitting in the back patio. The greenery and breeze felt like I was in a jungle. Our server was attentive and friendly and we ordered the meatballs and two pizzas. This was one of the best pizzas I've ever had. Definitely recommend adding the chili flakes and chili oil on the pizza. We also used the sauce from the meatballs to dip our pizza, our server's suggestion. 10/10 would return, dreaming of coming back soon. read more

I am disappointed that my experience was not as good as everyone else's. I've had this place on my list of must-tries for the past year and recently had the opportunity. I had made a reservation earlier in the week which I highly recommend since it was busy when we arrived at 8pm on a Friday. We were about 10 minutes early and waited 20 minutes to be seated in the back patio. The ambiance of back patio was chill and decorated with pretty lights. It was nice to be seated outside since the inside of the restaurant was packed. We ordered quickly, and waited around 30-40 minutes for our food to arrive. It was around 9pm and that point we were very hungry. Unfortunately the food and experience was not great. We had asked for the appetizer dish and pizza to come at the same time which seemed to set off a number of mishaps. King Trumpet Mushroom Pizza with Guanciale added: Honestly when it arrived, it was cooled like it had been sitting outside for a while. It was starting to get cold outside and we had been looking forward to eating fresh hot pizza. The pizza was wet and the mushroom was flavorless. The only thing that helped out was the guanciale since it added saltiness to the dish, but I wish there was more considering it was $5 to add. The one thing from this that I very much enjoyed, was the pizza dough and crust. It was light, airy, and chewy, with a good char flavor on the crust. Grilled Calamari: This arrived later than the pizza and the server had let us know that it would be late. We think the reason the pizza has turned cold was because the calamari had been delayed. It tasted fine, it was spicy and was balanced with the acidity of the lemon. The potatoes was also a nice surprise. We originally considered getting desert but changed our minds based on the experience with dinner. Separate of our experience with the food, service was good. Our server was attentive and nice. read more

Came here for the first time tonight and ate on the heated back patio. They had plaid blankets on every seat which felt festive & cozy.

Need to go back! read more

Absolutely phenomenal 5/5 star pizza dough (blow your mind amazing in my opinion!). The toppings were good but probably only 4/5 stars.

Came here for a weekday dinner and had great time. We came around 6 pm with no reservation. Luckily, they save a few spots for walk ins. I do recommend a reservation, even on a weekday, because they quickly filled up as the night went on. The style of pizza they do is more like personal size. I could definitely eat a whole pizza if I wanted to. You can also share two pizzas with someone if you wanted to mix and match. I got the salami piccante. The pizza was great! Everything was great here, no notes! read more

I've loved the pizza from here since their food truck days. I'm super bummed that they are closing May 8. It looks like getting the pizza's frozen might an option after the close, but if you haven't been, def go before May 8 so you don't miss out! They also have a patio if it's nice out! read more

The back garden area is sooo cute to sit. The entire restaurant is well decorated and the candles and lights add a beautiful touch to the ambience.

Del Popolo has been on my list for a while so I'm glad I got a reservation to try their pizza. I really like the space, overall nice ambiance especially for a special occasion or date night. I really like the service- even when it got a little busy our server was on top of it! We got the king trumpet mushroom pizza and the potato pizza with added homemade sausage. I usually get a side of red sauce to dip my crust into. The crust on both were incredibly pillowy-soft. The highlight was the quality of the crust. The pizzas were good, but to be honest it did not match the hype. There are a lot of great pizza staples in SF and this wasn't a stand out for me. The best comparison to this pizza would be Fiorella. It was good, and a lot of people have recommended it. read more

Visited Del Popolo with friends to carbo-load before their big marathon the next day. Definitely recommend making a reservation in advance as the space is limited and walk-ins are tough to come by. Apparently, it's considered one of the best Neapolitan pizzerias in the Bay Area, and I can totally see why. We ordered a variety of pizzas to share: the classic Margherita, the Bianca (white sauce), Salsiccia, King Trumpet Mushroom (this was a surprising standout!), and their seasonal Brentwood Corn pizza. We also opted for a burrata plate -- little savory treat before sharing the mains. Good service -- attentive and friendly throughout the dinner. Ambiance is cozy and intimate, making it a great spot for a yummy meal with friends or a date night. Every pizza was packed with flavor and it was a real treat to sample so many different pies. Reallllly wanted to try their sorbets, but I was just too full..... Perfect excuse to come back! read more

Wow, surprised you've got this at a 4.0 We ordered some drinks, olives and 2 pizzas. Olives were interesting, good, but the pizzas were amazing. Possibly the best pizza dough / crust I've ever had. Will try more next time, but the pizza is 5 all day long. Service great as well. read more

Absolutely incredible pizza. The dough was airy and light, with a perfectly charred crust that added just the right amount of smokiness. A subtle touch of sea salt inside the pie elevated every bite--it was seriously next level. Easily the best Neapolitan pizza I've had in all of San Francisco. I ordered takeout, and even the pizza box was impressive--hands down the nicest one I've seen. I could honestly eat this every day. read more

Del Popolo has long been on my list of pizza spots to try in SF, and I finally had the chance to experience their famous Neapolitan-style pizza. I booked my table about a week in advance, which I'd recommend since it is a very popular place. Located just up the (very steep) hill from Union Square, the restaurant provides a pleasant escape from the crowds of tourists and shops merely blocks away. During my visit, our server took good care of us and provided excellent recommendations on what to order. To start, my friend and I split the puntarelle alla romana, a creamy and zesty salad that tasted like a cruciferous version of a Caesar. We then split the seasonal kabocha squash pizza, which was absolutely heavenly. The sweet and nutty squash paired excellently with the slightly smoky Calabrian chili. Topped off with dollops of creamy cheese and a drizzle of honey, each bite was perfection. The pillowy and chewy crust was everything I could have hoped for, and it had a slightly tangy flavor - almost like sourdough. While there is tough competition among solid pizza restaurants in SF, I certainly plan to return to Del Popolo. read more

Really cute neighborhood pizza joint tucked away in lower Nob Hill! I always love coming here and recommending the back patio for outdoor dining in the summer months. They have some of my favorite pizza dough in all of SF - so light, airy, yet still has a nice chew. Super flavorful with a slight tangy aftertaste. Definitely try the potato pizza - my friend said it tastes like breakfast and I wholeheartedly agree. Love to top it with some of their chili oil! Guanciale pizza was also breakfast adjacent- very decadent from the robiola bosina but has a nice sweetness to balance it all out. Would skip the burrata next time - quite pricey for what you get (I tend to feel this way about burrata at any restaurant!). Had very little sauce/flavor/toppings so it was basically a decorated ball of burrata for $19. read more

Best. Pizza. Ever! I've been to this place dozens of times before moving back East, and oh how I miss it! Went two nights in a row on my last visit to SF. I love Una in NYC - which routinely lands on or near the top of most serious best-pizza-in-the-world lists - but I personally don't think it can hold a candle to the pizza they sling on Bush Street. The apps are consistently magnificent, the stuff you'd typically find in a much higher end eatery. The wine list is a bit obscure, and I find the wines by the glass hit or miss. Service is always on point, all the people there are very pleasant and very well trained. And the pizza! I've really never tasted a crust lighter and fluffier than what they do here, and I am somewhat obsessed with Neapolitan pizza. Overall one of my all time favorite places. Can't wait to come back. read more

Visited Del Popolo on a Friday night for dinner with some of my friends and overall it was a good experience. I would recommend making a reservation as the restaurant itself was not too big and had lots of folks dining in. It was a very cozy restaurant with a brick oven in the center and you can see the chefs tossing up the dough. We started off with the burrata and focaccia which were pretty decent, it definitely tasted fresh but not too much to rave about. Then we ordered 3 pizzas: Margarita, King Mushroom, and the potato. For the price, I expected the pizza to be a bit larger as I think if you were hungry, one person could honestly eat a pie on their own. The potato one for me was the most interesting and I loved the texture of the mushroom pizza. Service was great here, they were very attentive and offered to give us a side of sauce when the pizza we wanted to order didn't have a tomato base. I can see why Del Popolo is considered a go to restaurant in SF for Neapolitan pizzas - the quality of their ingredients definitely shines through. read more
