    Value. Half price on Wednesday.
    Craig G.

    Web Wednesday coincided with USA World Cup soccer match! Perfect time to use that 50% off coupon. I ordered three extra large pizzas on the website to enable the use of the coupon. I ordered for delivery at 4:30pm. The match started at 5. 1 supreme with meat and fresh veggies (the best), a pepperoni and sausage and a pepperoni. They arrived steamy hot and 10 minutes early. Kudos to the delivery kid. We did our USA chant before he left. I trust your pizzas so much I didn't need to check each box. By the time my small group showed up and the USA scored 2. The pizzas were devoured and everyone loved the quality of the food! Thanks again for the weekly coupon. It allows us to provide a top notched party food without breaking the bank!

    Pizza is good, ranch is delicious but they charge over $1 for ranch when I think it should be offered before you leave the counter and more should be given when you order a large salad. Place could use some better lighting and staff isn't so friendly.

    The Common Clay of the New West (Makes a Great a Pizza Pie) Mission Report: DeMatteo's Pizza Call in Order Objective: Fuel up before an event at the Parent Navel Orange Tree across the street. The Hardware (Food): The pizza here... well, it's an absolute win. We are talking high-tier specs: fresh ingredients, excellent cheese viscosity, and a crust that holds up under pressure. Visually and tastefully? The kitchen knows exactly what they are doing. USAUSA USA USA USA USA USA usa USA The Software (Atmosphere): You've got to remember the context here. This spot runs on a very specific frequency. It's not a polished corporate chain. It's a dedicated local pizza service. The vibe is "straight-to-business" after you tie up your horse and shake off the dust just let yourself into the swinging doors and meander up to the bar and let their chief ofstaff know you are here to trade currency for your catering order - maybe you grab your own cup, you find a spot, and you listen to the lively commentary while you wait. Because you've got to remember that this pizza fuel everyone, drifters, heros, but most california locals. These are people of the land. The common clay of the New West. You know... Riverside County enjoyers xD Verdict: The order took a little very little time to compile (freshness takes rendering time), but the final product was 100% worth the wait. If you want a real Riverside experience with food that slaps; this is the spot. Just buffer your schedule a bit so you can relax and enjoy the local bandwidth.

    They have Parmesan , chili flakes packets.

    Cashier was very nice and explained the lunch specials. We ordered and everything was fresh and delicious. Omg the breadsticks were unreal. We ordered individual pizzas, a sub, mozzarella sticks. The pizzas were perfect and tasty. Couldn't get a pic of the sub because my hubby ate it so fast. He said it was the best. Excellent service, amazing food. Def will be going back & highly recommend.

    Having grown up in the NYC tri-state area where it's actually hard to find a bad Mom and Pop italian restaurant, it's the complete opposite in SoCal to find a great Italian pizza parlor restaurant that's not washed down or fusion crap that's so far from the OG recipe or style. I've been trying different items from this restaurant, Pizza, manicotti, subs and now the calzone. Perfection! perfectly cooked, crispy crust and chew of the dough, marinara sauce is on point with the perfect tang and seasoning. Staff has always been friendly and professional. I highly recommend this place and I'm so glad I was told about this place which is hidden and tucked away in a strip mall. Will remain on my lunch rotation and go to local Pizza parlor.

    Delicious pizza and mozzarella sticks, as always! I had a Dr. Pepper with my meal, and it was perfectly carbonated--not flat at all. The staff was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. I always recommend DeMatteo's pizza!!

The interior decor can be described in one word: Dude! There are a handful of tables inside and a bar where beer on tap is served. As a first-timer, the young woman at the register was friendly and helpful in helping me make decisions after being overwhelmed my their large menu. So many choices! I decided on the Acapulco Gold: BBQ chicken breast pieces, Swiss cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, and dressing. It usually comes with onions too, but I asked that ingredient be left out. She guided me to try it on garlic bread, which was a wise choice (thank you), and her finger measurements helped me decide on how big a sandwich I should get. I made it a combo, which came with a bag of chips and a fountain drink. The sandwich was messy but, as is often the case with messy food, it was incredibly delicious! All the flavors melded well together. Every ingredient tasted so fresh, especially the bread. This is THE place to come if you are craving a sandwich! Note: street parking or pay in a nearby lot

The first small disappointment was finding out they don't offer mushrooms. As a big mushroom fan, especially on a hot sandwich, that was a bit of a letdown -- but not a deal breaker. I ordered the D'Loaded Cheese Steak, which honestly would've been perfect with mushrooms. When I opened it up, it looked absolutely delicious. The flavor definitely delivered -- I won't deny that at all. It was very tasty. My main issue was the texture and structure of the sandwich. It came out extremely hot and very wet. The bottom of the bread was completely soaked, which made it difficult to pick up without it falling apart. I just wish the bread had held up better so I could've enjoyed it without the mess. Overall, the flavor was great, but I hope they can improve the sandwich structure a bit. I'd be willing to give it another try.

We could've went to a good full service sit down restaurant for much less (tip included). Will we be back? I'd like to say yes but not at these prices. Also the 40 min drive makes it not worth it. I understand good food is not cheap but I'll stick to closer/cheaper sandwiche shops near me (Green Shack/Saverinos)

Ambiance is not the best, as the interior of the restaurant can feel dated--the art does not help--and the booths that comprise the bulk of the seating is private (which I love) but always dirty. Despite the service and ambiance leaving something to be desired, the lunch is great option in the downtown area. I do no recommend the breakfast--the potatoes lack flavor and many items are better made at home, imo. My go-to lunch options Grilled Smokey without onions- a fancy grilled cheese w tomato Tomato soup pairs very well with the grilled cheese Grill Smokey with bacon- solid but sometimes I don't want bacon/meat Tuna melt- so good and I tend to not like celery Black bean soup- solid Upgrade to the pesto pasta salad OR the loaded potato salad Don't recommend the pastrami sandwich-the meat was lowkey gross Baked good/desserts Princess Cake- I'm royalty and this cake hits the right notes and spots Sticky buns- get it Cinnamon bun- get it Cookies (molasses)- yummy and good texture Bagels- great quality bagels to add to a meal Baked breads (when in stock)- love fresh bread and recommend the sourdough

Everything was cooked well, and I thought the price was reasonable. The sourdough bread itself was good, but overall I felt like the meal was missing a little something. Since the slices were pretty large, I asked for extra syrup, which definitely helped. I also thought the sausage patties were a little small for the portion. For my drink, I had an iced latte with vanilla syrup and almond milk. It was okay, but nothing really stood out about it. Overall, it was a decent breakfast and a good value, but I think a few small improvements could make it much better.

We were a little hesitant to ask because not every place is willing to make custom substitutions, especially since they already have a cold tuna sandwich on the menu. We wanted a hot tuna melt, and they happily accommodated our request without any hesitation. That level of customer service really stood out. The sandwich was absolutely worth it--I would recommend it 100%! It had the perfect kick from the sriracha aioli, a generous amount of tuna, and the pickled onions added so much flavor. Everything came together perfectly. We also ordered the Basil Pomodoro after one of the staff members recommended it, mentioning that it's one of their most popular items. They definitely didn't steer us wrong! It was incredible, and honestly, I'd order it over and over again. The creamy stracciatella cheese (a lighter, creamier version of burrata) paired perfectly with the sundried tomatoes and basil. If we hadn't already ordered the California Melt, we probably would have gotten a second Basil Pomodoro because it was that good. For drinks, we tried the Iced Strawberry Matcha, which came with strawberry purée at the bottom and strawberry cold foam on top. I'd easily give it a 9/10--it was refreshing and delicious. We also had a regular coffee, and that was excellent as well. The staff were amazing from start to finish. They took the time to answer all of our questions, helped us decide what to order, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Great food, great drinks, and even better customer service.

I ordered a sandwich and while the flavors were there, it ended up being a bit smaller than I was expecting for the price -- I probably could've gone for a side or added something extra to make it more filling. It also leaned a little on the salty side, more than I'm used to, so it wasn't quite my perfect bite, though I could see it working well for someone who likes bolder, saltier flavors. That said, the service was friendly and the place had a nice, welcoming vibe, which definitely helped balance things out. It's clear they care about what they're putting out, and I'd still be open to giving it another shot -- maybe trying a different sandwich or asking for the seasoning on the lighter side next time. Not a bad spot overall, just a few small tweaks away from being a favorite for me
