I have been coming here for the past eight years. I have lived in South Sacramento my whole life. I believe this is the best pizzeria in the Sacramento area as I grow older. I really think the pizza just gets better and better doesn't matter about the prices, it matters about the pie and it is delicious. read more

The ONLY place I'll get pizza from!! The dough is thick and fluffy, sauce is flavorful and they aren't skimpy with the toppings either. It's a cute small mom and pop shop so please support your local families and be patient since sometimes the cook also manages the front desk and it can get busy. Staff are very friendly and provide excellent service and accommodations with speedy deliveries as well! read more

Very clean shop, amazing pizza at a good price. Very nice staff. Our new hidden gem. Easy to find and parking.

The cashier and cook are doing both jobs. I waited more than 10 minutes. However the food was good and the crust is made fresh. The grease was a nice handle on the package. For a personal pizza , and two soda is 15 bucks. For a lunch deal it's a good catch just need more staff. Seems like a small business so it has a family pizza parlor feeling. read more

Famous Pizza - Store front - Pizza Near Me - Sacramento, California

Decent pizza place. I remember seeing the other location on Freeport all the time since I went to school in that area. The pizzas here are decent and the pricing is great. Service has always been friendly since it is family owned. I ordered one of the famous combo deals, which is a medium pepperoni and cheesy garlic bread for about $20 after tax. Both were good for the price. I did ask about a free soda since I was picking up, but was told the minimum threshold is $25, which I'm not sure how true that is. Parking is in a small lot, but I've never been here where I had trouble parking. I will order from here again if I want decent pizza for a decent price. read more

I decided to bring my review up to a perfect rating because, that once incident has since been diminished. I've returned to Famous Pizza since that rating and the guy that took my order the first time, is not there anymore (as far as the times that I've been in the restaurant). And the gentleman that has been there to service me, is nothing but pleasant and has a great attitude. But the pizza is what should've stood out as - it's great!!! Thus the repeated times I've ordered from this place! read more

Famous Pizza - Top sellers photo as of 2024.12.28 - Pizza Near Me - Sacramento, California

Real pizza. Not cesars style. The toppings are good quality and the cheese is good too. You can tell their pizzas are high quality because their pizza tastes almost as good cold; and doesn't have to be burning hot. The sauce has a nice flavor that doesn't taste like they put a bunch of sugar in it. My family likes their wings more than wing stop. If you come here you will not regret it. I'm glad we have a pizza place like this in the area. I think everyone is tired of cesars... here's your place. read more

Always good to my family and I. Been eating here and at the Land park location for the last 10-15 years. Most favorite pizza is the famous chicken. Love they have ground beef read more

Famous Pizza sells good quality pizzas at fair prices. The ingredients are a step up from the big chain stores. The bread is really soft and the pizza is on the less oily side. 100% recommend their breadsticks too. Their pizzas are pretty consistent and the service is quick and friendly too. They have been spot on with the estimated wait time for in store carry-out and pick-up. They seem more old school without the online ordering, but that is not a deal breaker. Lastly, they have deals that are available daily. This place is kind of a hidden gem among the numerous pizza shops. Support your local business and don't worry about giving this place a try if you haven't already. read more

Famous Pizza - Half and half pizza. Great crust and sauce. The crust is not too thick or doughy at all. Just right! - Pizza Near Me - Sacramento, California

The pizza was good, but there weren't any prices on the menu. When we asked for the prices, the cashier pointed at the menu board... which didn't have any prices. So we pointed it out and she looked around before finally pointing at the window. Sure enough, there were prices posted on the outside of the window so we read them backwards from inside the restaurant. Even so, those were only the prices for a promotional deal, not for the standard menu items. Seems like not clearly posting prices is becoming increasingly common at restaurants and it's quite frustrating. I'm sorry, but I do care how much something costs before I buy it. Is that so unreasonable? read more

I've tried various pizza places in sac and they're all trash... Except for this one. You can tell they use authentic, fresh ingredients because their pizza actually tastes delicious and is enjoyable to eat. None of that generic crap other places use. Genuine pizza, genuine staff. read more

Highly recommend this pizza joint!!! My family's new favorite spot. It's a bit of a drive for us, but definitely worth it. We ordered the large combo pizza with wings special and a medium cheese pizza for the kids. Toppings are fresh! Sausage has great flavor! The wings are meaty and tasty! Super friendly here, I called in my order, he repeated and confirmed my order back correctly. Hubby picked up the pizza and said they are super friendly in person also. Bonus is they are open late! read more

We started going here in September of 2020, as we had just moved in the neighborhood. We specifically asked in the beginning of their pizza crust was dairy free. I'm 7 years vegan and I'm very familiar with what to ask. They said, it was dairy free. Fast forward ten months later to today 6/28/21, my husband kept trying to order plain bread sticks and marinara sauce for me, so the guy on the phone kept repeating our order in different ways. My husband must've said our order 4-5 times before saying, "I said it five times". So the guy refused to take our order and hung up on him. My husband drove over and even though the guy apologized, it had come up that nothing in the restaurant was vegan-friendly. Apparently, this was the owner. So I had been eating their food for ten months with the belief that it was dairy-free, as they had told me in the beginning. It wasn't our first incident with them. Once they wouldn't allow my husband to pay with a card over the phone. My husband is black and I'm Asian. As soon as he hung up, I called and was able to pay with a card, as I had done before. They've also been rude to him on a few other occasions. We try to brush the little things off our shoulder to help small businesses but in the past ten months, they've just lied about the ingredients and have been rude time and time again. read more

The service here is friendly and helpful. They use fresh ingredients and are always on point with their wait time warnings. Love this place. Their bacon ranch famous chicken is a 10/10 and their ranch one of the best around read more

First timer here!! Easy to find and clean location! Staff was very friendly and our order came out fast! We ordered a combo, chicken garlic, cheese bread and cheese pizza! Everything we received was made perfectly and tasted delicious. We will definitely be coming back here again soon! read more

Finally got a chance to try this place, pizza is pretty good. We got the 3 topping pizza for $13.99, half Hawaiian with pineapple & half with pepperoni & sausage. Pizza was ready to pick up within 15 minutes, the crust somewhat reminds me of Costco's crust except a bit sweeter, but I enjoyed it. The flavor on the topping was good. Overall we would be back. read more

I don't know how I never discovered this place before. I lived in the Sacramento area my whole life and always thought pizza here is just mediocre. Famous Pizza does pizza right. Their pepperoni pizza is great! Cheese and sauce ratio is just right . The crust is nice and fluffy just how I like it. Their workers are super friendly and very informed on where their produce is coming from. They were extremely helpful. I will be back for sure. read more

Great pizza!!!! Terrible service, they do not keep their specials updated. When you try and order they are rude about you asking the specials. They actually refuse to answer the phone. I thought I would support a local business with a huge order for 15 people but unfortunately I had to take my business elsewhere. I hope they try and turn their service around as the product they sell is actually very tasty. read more

This is really tasty pizza! It's priced right for the quality and the garlic lovers is soooo delish! I took some picks of the menu since it was nearly impossible to find a decent menu online to call in my order. I love that they give you the Parmesan in what look like little drug baggies LOL! So funny! read more

Good pizza for a decent price. However, they do not make true Italian calzones or even know what a real calzone is. One of the main signature ingredients in a calzone includes ricotta cheese.   None of their calzones contain this ingredient.  Even if you build your own, there's no option to add ricotta cheese.  I'm originally from NY and have eaten many calzones. I give them only a 2 star rating for their "calzones". I asked the staff about their "calzones" and they just shrugged it off and stated that's how they were told to make them. No clue. And asked me what is ricotta cheese?lol https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calzone https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/18874/real-italian-calzones/ https://therecipecritic.com/calzone/ https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/12390-pizza-calzone It's not hard to find recipes for true Italian Calzones. If you review any of the above recipe links, you will see ricotta cheese as an ingredient. read more

I had been coming to Famous Pizza for years since this ownership had it's location on Freeport Blvd and had always been a loyal customer to them until they moved to the 47th Avenue location where they are now. Today will be the last time I will ever spend another dime in their establishment. I'm not sure if the owner didn't recognize me when I came to pick up my pizza because I had on a hat and my mask, but his shady business practices and cheating me out of my money will not be forgotten or go unknown. The deal that he quoted me on my pizza was $16.99 for an X-Large with mushrooms and olives. They have always offered a free 2-liter soda with every pick-up purchase. When I arrived, he quoted me 19.50 and I reminded him of his quote for 16.99. He acted as if he would adjust my bill nodding his head saying "oh yeah, yeah" but ceased making eye contact with me. He asked if there was anything else and I stated that I would take my free 2 liter. When he gave me my receipt, I saw that he had billed me $21.50! I confronted him about this and he said "Oh, for tax and you want soda" This man understands English perfectly and he simply decided that he would charge me whatever he wanted. As you can see on the receipt, no tax was charged. Perhaps I look stupid? I wasn't about to go on with this SOB while he argued with me and I let him know that I was a long time customer, that I didn't appreciate his attempt to take advantage of me, and that now I would never spend another cent in his establishment. I'll be honest, the reason I would go in there is because the pizza was decent but nothing spectacular at a fair price. But he has just lost a loyal customer with his theft of my $4. I wonder if it was worth it. I recommend you buy a pizza somewhere else and if you insist on trying this place, ask what your final cost will be then make sure your not being robbed! read more
