Best pizza in San Francisco, hands down. Came here with a group of 10 friends (by reservation) and the service was very fast and friendly. We ordered 5/6 of the pizzas available at the time. Our absolute favorites were the Pesto and Margherita. Spicy Vodka was good but not as mind-blowing as the first two. The crust, flavor, and size of these pizzas are amazing. We ordered 5 pizzas (+ salads, fries, and beer) for 10 big-backed people and walked away with a bunch of leftovers! Would definitely come back. :) read more

I have heard good things about this place so decided to check it out. Since it was a weekday, parking wasn't too bad and I found a spot about a block away. Upon entering, Hi Hat reminds me of Golden Boy's location on on Green in SF. with a big bar seating area and a few tables. All that was missing was the walk-up window! I took a seat at the bar to place my to-go order. I ordered a whole pepperoni, a slice of cheese and a slice of spicy vodka (recommended by staff as their most popular). The staff was all friendly and helpful. My order took about 20 minutes. The star was definitely the spicy vodka! My partner enjoyed the pepperoni, said it was one of the best he's ever had. I liked it as well, but the sauce was a bit tart for me. The cheese was also good, but not something I'd order again when compared to the spicy vodka and pepperoni ones. The great thing about Hi Hat is that they also serve burgers, hot sandwiches and a few salads. The chatter about Hi Hat is all true, delicious pizza with an amazing crust. Glad to be able to add this to my rotation of pizzerias around! read more

So I have Hi Hat in a tie for first place for best pizza in the Bay Area with Pizza Ponte. We had a large party of 14 and they made it work. The staff was fantastic and so was the pizza. The cook on the pizzas are fully dialed in. Crispy bottom. So floppy slices here. read more

I don't get the hype. The pizza wasn't even as good as a similar slice at Whole Foods. It's better than Costco, but not by much. And the cost doesn't match the quality. $80 for a pepperoni and cheese pizza that weigh almost nothing. The boxes they came in probably weighed more than the pies. It's a great NY/NJ style slice, but those cost a fraction of the Hi Hat price. Want to try the burger, but we will go someplace else for pizza next time. read more

Hi Hat is honestly my new favorite pizza (and burger) spot in the city. My past two visits here have exceeded my expectations, and I really enjoy pressuring friends to make visits, too. price: ~$20/person recs: stracciatella pizza, hi hat burger (but honestly, everything has been good) imo the pizza is best when it's fresh, so dining in elevates the experience. The crust is my favorite part -- it's thin (but not too thin), savory, and almost focaccia-like. The vodka sauce on the stracciatella pizza is balanced, and ingredients taste super fresh. Paired with a draft beer, this makes for a super well-rounded meal :^ ) I was also surprised I liked the burger as much as I did. The burger comes with a generously portioned, juicy patty and is paired with piping hot and well-salted fries. Would easily make many more visits to this establishment! read more

Friends and I came around 7:30 so I would say about mid shift since the restaurant opens at 4 PM and closes at 10 PM. We were pretty bumped that by the time we got there, they only had slices for the mushroom + jersey pies so my friends and I had to get two pies. However, the pies are HUUGE -- definitely enough to feed you for the next two days. The buffalo wings and fries were also great! Overall had a great experience and would come back to try their pesto pie! read more

Some of the best pizza I have ever tried! Came in on Sunday night to try and cop a late night slice but was saddened to hear the stop serving slices. But I was determined so I came back the next day during happy hour and was excited to try the vodka and stracciatella slice. The sauce was great the cheese was creamy and the crust had the perfect crunch. I also got a pepperoni slice and while it was good, I felt like the pepperoni was a little too much and was overpowering the base of the pizza if that makes sense. Overall would definitely come back! And great service! read more

Loved my experience at Hi Hat and I'll be back. I got a seat at the bar and was able to snag the last spicy vodka & stracciatella slice at the suggestion of my bartender and it was fantastic. The mushroom slice was good too, though I wanted more mushroom flavor. They did ran out of most slices pretty fast so come early. Love that you can get whatever toppings on the slices too. The french onion dip was unexpectedly spicy and tasty, lots of garlic (I think). It leaned a little salty but was a nice bite. Honestly the whole menu sounded good but I was happy with my choices and very stuffed. I also had the banana biscoff pudding which was yum. I got a spicy vodka pie to go too which was great but not as good as the slices there (not about reheating but the flavors seemed slightly different). It's a pretty huge pizza - the box literally would not fit in my fridge. Made for a solid lunch plus more leftovers in the freezer. I also got a salted brown butter cookie to go which was good but I've had better and prefer my cookies a little chewier. But it was a huge cookie for $3 in a city where smaller similar cookies can be $5 so I appreciated that. Lots of wine and beer options and I appreciated that they had a bunch of N/A options. Service was great and the I enjoyed my time there. I round up to 5 stars because of the overall experience. read more

The pizza is amazing as is the service. Reminds me of New York Pizza, really good beer and cozy ambiance

Excellent NY-style pizza, with slightly thicker crusts than your standard NY slice. We got the spicy vodka and the pesto. The vodka pizza was great and the straciatella cheese provided a cool creamy contrast. The pesto was good, but a bit too salty. read more

If you don't want to wait in line come on a weekday. Finally got to try the pizza here after so long. The pizza texture was gr8 no flop indeed. Things to note the inside was very nice with a bar and super nice/ attentive servers which I appreciated. I thought the mushroom pizza was a bit too heavy and repetitive IMO but the other slice the spicy vodka was delicious. Also had the chip dip + broccoli salad which were also both tasty. Great experience think the mushroom pizza @ mamas boy a bit better but still overall very solid read more

Really enjoyed the pizza. Probably one of the best slices I've had in the city. Cookie had layers and layers of chocolate, which I appreciated. It's a soft/moist type of cookie. No crispy edges. Place is spacious, looks nice & clean. I saw a nice variety of beers on tap. Ordered to-go twice. When I asked for a piece of foil for the pizza, the person that was assisting (I assume manager or owner) just took one of the triple stacked thin plate that the pizza was served to cover the top. Had to hold onto the slice the whole ride home. I would recommend the restaurant providing foil for take out orders. Would recommend checking this place out for some thin crust crispy pizza! read more

The pizza here is fantastic! If you enjoy super thin, crispy crust, then I highly recommend this spot. This may be my new favorite pizza spot in SF. My partner and I dined here on a Friday night, and we got seated immediately. Since it was our first time, we decided to order a slice of each type of pizza - pepperoni, jersey tomato pie, mushroom pie, spicy vodka & stracciatella. Our favorite ended up being the spicy vodka & stracciatella, which was so flavorful and delicious that we ended up getting another slice of it afterwards. There's a decent variety of drinks available as well, including some beers on tap. Service was also super friendly and helpful. I also heard good things about the burger here, so I can't wait to come back to try that and get more of the spicy vodka & stracciatella pizza. read more

Came for the pizza but definitely don't sleep on the burger!! I added mushrooms to mine after the bartender suggested I do so and it's definitely the move. For pizza we got slices of the mushroom and the vodka & stracciatella. They were both A+ flavor combinations and so tasty, but I think the crust was a liiiittle crunchier than I wanted (as opposed to chewy), I suspect because they were slices and thus probably reheated. I was by no means deterred though and scarfed my meal down so fast. So glad that another pizza shop opened in the Mission, I will definitely be back to try out the whole pies and beers! read more

We had the pizza it's famous for...excellent - perfect crisp and little pepper and basil add some nice touches to a solid pizza. The lady waitress was super cool so we gave her a great tip. Good vibe, cool people with smiles and kindness. Growing up working in restaurants you couldn't ask for a better experience. read more

Ordered a couple of slices here on the way back to SF since we saw it was a new location! We tried the pepperoni and mushroom pie slice and they both were tasty! Although they were not as fresh as I would have liked, they made up in flavor and the bread was top notch! Service was amazing, bar tender and staff really enjoyed the customers. They all were trying to do the best they can and they were extremely nice. Although I love the simplicity of the bar/restaurant I felt like there was still something missing. A touch of interesting decor inside would go a long way! Overall, great quality NY style pizza at a competitive price! read more

This spot is fantastic--super unassuming and easy to miss, but absolutely worth seeking out. I stopped by after Dave Portnoy gave it a solid 8.2, and it completely lived up to the hype. The staff is incredible--warm, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. I ended up chatting with the bartender/waitress the entire time I was there. For the full experience, I ordered a whole pepperoni pie instead of just slices. (Fresh whole pies almost always hit different.) As someone who makes my own dough and sauce at home, has read way too many pizza books, and geeks out over the craft, I can confidently say this was some of the best pizza I've ever had. Hands down the best I've found anywhere in California. Highly recommend--don't sleep on this place! read more

Never heard of this place before, however I just happened to be doing business in the area so decided to check it out. Ordered the spicy vodka and was surprised how good it was. Pizza was crunchy and had a lot of flavor. Just so different than what I'm used to , will definitely have to return and try this place again. read more

I love this place. I came here to try their pizza and was not disappointed. Easily my top 3 NY pizza places in the Bay Area We tried a full vodka pie, and a slice of the pepperoni and the jersey tomato. All excellent. The hi hat burger was also really tasty, though I wish the patty made it to the edges of the bun and that they were more generous with the pickles. One of the workers (I assume is a manager or owner) saw I had the warriors game on my phone and he asked me about it and then proceeded to put it on the TV. Really great environment. read more

Great pizza spot. They're quick and delicious! We got the pepperoni, the mushroom, and the spicy vodka. The spicy vodka was my favorite but the mushroom and pepperoni were close contenders. It's a thin slice of pizza, so the crust is nice and crispy. The mushroom and the spicy vodka had some fresh cheese which balanced out the heaviness and made it the perfect combination. I would definitely come back and get a whole pie. read more

We popped in for dinner on a Sunday night, and had a great experience! Tasty food, excellent service, in a pleasant, though dark, setting (we loved the art on the walls)! My husband, 7 year old daughter, and I all enjoyed our burgers and fries. They were juicy and flavorful. They come medium rare, so I'd recommend asking for medium or medium-well if you're not a fan of medium-rare. My husband appreciated the selection of beers they had, and enjoyed his STS Russian River lager. I appreciated their selection of wines and quite liked my Deloach Pinot Noir. The service was excellent- attentive and detail-oriented. We appreciated that they checked if we were ready for a second round of drinks before our first round was empty. They were definitely kid-friendly and our child was one of at least 3 children present when we came for a 6pm dinner. They had an art show with awesome paintings on display. The space is dimly lit (I personally would have preferred brighter, better lighting). Overall, this is a great spot and we look forward to returning! read more

Not sure if this place had an off night as our experience was vastly different from the glowing reviews here. Photos of the pizza looked promising online and the menu sounded good. Vibe was cozy with a nice bar area. But service was severely lacking: we waited at the front for several minutes and in spite of making eye contact with multiple staff, no one came over to seat us or even acknowledge our presence. Someone coming out from the kitchen finally noticed and was kind enough to wave us in and tell us to sit wherever. After sitting down, we similarly waited several minutes for someone to hand us menus or at least asked if we wanted water, until we got fed up and just grabbed menus on our own. We noticed that parties coming in after us were seated and handed waters before we even got a menu and this lack of service was persistent as we watched these later parties get their orders taken first and their food arrive before us. I don't usually order salad because I think they're rip-offs, but I was desperate for some greens and the arugula salad lived up to this expectation. If the pizza were good, at least there'd be some saving grace to the experience. We ordered a slice of each pizza offered: pepperoni, cheese, summer squash, mushroom, and spicy vodka & stracciatella. There was literally no summer squash in the summer squash pizza. It was really more like a cilantro/mint leaf salad than a pizza. Mushroom pie was okay; the garlic confit didn't add much and there was hardly any detectable porcini flavor in the porcini cream. The cheese and the spicy vodka slices were functionally the same -- I couldn't tell them apart. Tomato sauce was nothing standout and I wouldn't even say the slices were particularly cheesy. My husband gave the pepperoni a 5/10. As for the crust? Sure, it was thin. But boy was it tough. There's a difference between a good crisp and just being dry and hard. I had to yank on it with my teeth to rip a piece off. I've had my fair share of NYC thin crust and this was just not it for me. read more

We found this new spot on Yelp for some late night pizza and we were impressed! It's new to the neighborhood, only open for about a month. The place is spacious and the staff is nice. We got some slices and they were on point. The dough tastes great. I bet their full pizza would be even better since it'll be more fresh. Slices have to be heated up so it's not as hot as I would like it. Overall we'd come back! read more

When scoring experiences, normally I lend balance to food, service and ambiance. However, my primary reason for agreeing to try Hi Hat was to eat dinner. So my rating heavily weighs my food experience. Do with this information as you will. Ambiance For those familiar with the old Pi Bar, the ambiance doesn't disappoint. Brightly lit room with ample seating that stays true to the desires of beer enthusiast via a diverse selection of craft beers. The music selection was also well curated by a DJ spinning vinyl records. Service The bartenders and food server were all attentive and professional Food I hear the pizza is really good, although having had Tartine Manufacturing pizza a day prior (which is not 'New Haven' style as Hi Hat describes itself), I was in the mood for something different. From the menu, a Spicy Vodka Chicken Parmesan sando, on Rize Up Bread with a thin layer of ricotta cheese with lemon zest, sounded great. At $21 for JUST a sandwich, expectations were reasonably high. Sadly, the sando, which is a newer item on the menu missed the mark primarily for NOT being made fresh to order. If this establishment was an Xtreme Pizza, or even worse a Mr. Pizza Man, maybe my expectations would have been reset. But again, for a $21 sandwich, from a business that appears to be meticulous in every other area (albeit the bathroom needed more paper towels), not making the sandwich fresh to order is a HUGE miss. My advice, don't treat your sandwiches like a slice of pizza. The expectations differ as a pizza reheated taste materially different than a chicken parm reheated . Customers are willing to wait for fresh food given realistic expectations, and this cost should already be factored into your business model. read more
