Great tasting pizza located in the heart of Gold Country in the small historic town of Sutter Creek. The restart is in what looks like a historic turn of the century home that's been convert to a restaurant. There's a patio in the front and amazing backyard patio that overlooks Sutter Creek. The pizza itself is all quality crafted to perfection. The pizza crust reminds me of Strawhat pizza or Shakey's from way back in the day. I ordered a medium Gold Dust combo. On the menu the Gold Dust combo doesn't have a lot of toppings compared to other pizza places but all the ingredients they put on it works perfectly and they don't skimp on the toppings. It's really quality you can taste. The ranch dressing tastes like it's house made with the buttermilk you can taste and it's really thick. The ranch doesn't taste like commercially bought sauce from Sysco or any supplier. From Sactown it's just about an hour drive taking the hwy 16 Jackson road. It's well worth the drive just for the pizza. Best time to enjoy the outdoor dining is spring or early summer. Gold Dust combo pizza score: 9/10

Barbecue Chicken Pizza
Michelle M.

I've never had pizza like this - the base was thick but cheese and toppings were as equally thick so it was a perfect balance. We ordered the bbq chicken pizza and it seemed like a lot of different toppings but it went so well together in each bite. I'm guilty of usually giving my crusts away but I finished all of my crusts because they were so crispy and there were toppings and sauce on the crust too! The girl that took our order was super helpful and the outdoor area in the back was beautiful and spacious. It was a random stop on our trip but ended up being the discovery of one of the most sensational pizzas I've ever had!

Delicious pizza in Sutter Creek This spot always seems busy.... The pizza is loaded w/deliciousness. Great chewy crust. Fresh tasty ingredients. Always happy with their pies

Gold Digger Pizza on thick crust
Nicole S.

We came in on a Saturday around 2:30 and it was quite busy be we were still able to get a table. We ordered the Gold Digger on thick crust and it was probably some of the best pizza I've ever had! The restaurant had indoor and outdoor seating which was nice since it was cold outlander. The vibe was warm and cozy. Next time were in town we'll be back.

The aftermath.... The "Digger"

No ice in the soda machine! That's the only bad thing to report and I can't give 1/2 star. Pizza was great. Lots of meat and lots of cheese. Crust is amazing.

Best Pizza in Nor Cal.....This is our destination pizza spot. We're like an hour away, day tripping for some Gold Dust. -The spot: located in the heart of Amador County. Scenic drive to the rural community of Sutter Creek. Gold Dust have plenty of outdoor tables w/umbrella that back right into a creek with auspicious flowing water for u 2 get ur "Picnic On." -Pizza: hecka good dude!!!! Ingredients look and taste fresh and stacked. Crust is perfect right out of the oven-hot, crispy and can handle all the toppings. - Extras: nice local brews on taps. The IPA from Amador County is pretty good. Wine list is cool also. Good selection from wineries in the area. We like the Zine from Scott Harvey's. -Verdict: forget the mistake of the past and press onto the greater achievements of the future. Service USE TO suck, but is COOL NOW...Pizza has always been good, but tastes a-lot better w/ a smile.

We take an annual weekend trip to Sutter Creek & Gold Dust Pizza is always our first stop. The pizza & wings are good! Paired with a pitcher of beer and the nice backyard vibes we make sure to always go there. Even when they are very busy service has been pretty quick.

Gold Dust Pizza is my FAVORITE pizza spot! Just an hour outside Sac, it's a great opportunity to take a day trip, sit outside and eat some amazing pizza and wings! The crust is a fluffy sourdough-esque dream that offers a crunchy outside and pillowy soft inside. The toppings are LOADED as well! The wings are super good! They flavor them well and their ranch is TOP TIER!!! They offer great customer service and a relaxing outdoor area to sit near the creek. Do yourself a favor and check them out!

The Gold Standard of Pizza, Indeed! Gold Dust Pizza in Sutter Creek isn't just my favorite pizza spot -- it's my favorite pizza in the world. Every visit is a perfect mix of old-town charm and unbeatable food. The setting captures the spirit of Sutter Creek, tucked among historic buildings, cozy patios, and friendly faces that make you feel right at home. The pizza? Absolutely top-tier. The crust is golden and perfectly crisped, the sauce is rich and tangy, and the toppings are piled generously -- fresh mushrooms, savory sausage, pepperoni, olives, and just the right amount of cheese stretch with every bite. Their "Gold Digger" and "Gold Dust Combo" pizzas are legendary, and you can taste the quality in every slice. Pair that with a frosty pint of local beer and an order of wings (which come out hot, saucy, and addictive), and you've got the ultimate comfort meal. Whether dining indoors with its classic bar feel or outside under the shaded patio surrounded by flowers, the atmosphere is pure Gold Rush-era charm with a family-friendly twist. Gold Dust Pizza truly lives up to its name -- rich in taste and a local treasure. If you're anywhere near Sutter Creek (or even a couple of hours away), it's worth the drive. Must-try items: Giant combo pizza, buffalo wings, and a cold draft beer. Vibe: Warm, lively, and welcoming -- perfect for families, friends, or a casual afternoon with local craft brews.

Ask the Community - Gold Dust Pizza - Sutter Creek

Do they take reservations?

No and no need. They have plenty of seating, both inside and out. They do have an old wine cellar seating area which you can reserve in advance.

How bad are the bees if we eat outside?

I have eaten outside twice and no problem with Bees at all. Maybe a little early in the season but I haven't seen one yet.

Is thia pizza plus?

It pretty much is, just a new name!

Thank goodness for Yelp on helping me find this place! The ambiance was quite lovely on this Friday night, great patio and outdoor seating area. The place was suuuuper busy because of a really large group so it did make our service really slow. But our waitress was very sweet and apologized several times. The food was definitely worth the wait. My husband ordered the crispy tacos with smoked Carnitas and they were so delicious. I ordered the mulitas with one carnitas and the other the carne asada. Both were really delicious and had great flavor. There was enough food that we had leftovers the next day for lunch. I am excited that such a place is up here in this area because we come up here often to go camping in our RV. We will definitely be back to try other dishes. I would love to try the smoked pork belly and brisket tacos next time.

She genuinely cares about her customers and consistently goes above and beyond to accommodate special requests. It's refreshing to see an owner who is so involved and passionate about both her business and the community. The restaurant is always clean, welcoming, and has plenty of seating. Their all-you-can-eat lunch buffet is a fantastic value. If you're wondering why you're given one paper plate, it's because some people were unfortunately taking advantage of the buffet by giving extra plates to people who hadn't paid. The policy helps keep the buffet fair for everyone. The quality of the food is consistently excellent. The dough is made fresh daily, and the pizza sauce is mixed in-house--you really can taste the difference. Every pizza comes out fresh, flavorful, and made with care. If you haven't been here yet, you're missing out. Stop in, enjoy some amazing pizza, and if you get the chance, say hello to René. She's one of the reasons this restaurant has such a loyal following!

The salad bar had all the classics and was a solid start. Seating consists of five tables for four and two tables for six. Unfortunately, three of the tables weren't cleaned and still had crumbs all over them. When I arrived, only one couple was dining in, so it wasn't busy--plenty of time to wipe things down. I picked the least dirty table available, but during the 25 minutes I was there, no tables were ever cleaned. On the bright side, the pizza was hot and fresh. I tried sausage & bacon, pepperoni, ham & pineapple, and the cheesy pizza. Everything tasted good, and the cheesy pizza had a nice crunchy bottom. Just a heads-up: the metal pizza tins come out extremely hot--I learned the hard way when grabbing a slice of cheese pizza. Overall: good pizza and a great lunch deal for the price.
