Big box

It doesn't look like a Detroit style that I'm familiar with but don't let that fool you. The flavor coming off this pie satisfied my craving. I'm loving the crispy pep and spicy sauce. It's not overwhelming to where you can't enjoy but has just enough heat to make you feel it. Crust is flavorful and garlicky. I attempted to eat the whole thing but I guess I'm not a teenager anymore. That's ok. Can't wait to try it cold. (And the pizza grease?!, love it. Wish they had a ranch/pizza grease option to have on the side, hint, hint).

The Supreme (Jumbo 18")
Maria L.

I like the pizza here especially on Wednesdays and Sundays when they have a special for Jumbo size (18") specialty pizzas. My favorite is the "supreme" pizza. It is filled with lots of toppings. Excellent pizza. This place is located on a busy street. There is a small "green zone" for people to stop briefly in front of the restaurant and run in to pick up their food. There is also a small parking area in back of the restaurant. But it is not easy to find a space. I recommend bringing someone with you when you go pick up your food from Jay's. Someone can run in to get the food while another person wait in the car. I highly recommend ordering food in advance since there is no place to dine in. And the wait can be long when they are busy. They have daily specials. I will be coming back to try other items.

Personal size pizza with pepperoni.

Pops was in the mood for pizza but wanted moms n pops pizza spot. I called the on Yelp and decided to give this spot a try. The young lady "Lucy" answered the phone and was really nice after letting her looking for personal size pizza for my dad and suggested the six slices with pepperoni. Also explained my dad is diabetic with cancer which they had unsweetened tea and can put in the fridge will be nice n cold when i picked up. She said come by it will be ready in 20 minutes after arriving Lucy was so nice so customer friendly the spot has few tables with TV's and had the Dodgers game on yay. Well the real test pops are two slices and said that was done good pizza . Definitely give this spot a try the staff is awesome.

This not Detroit style crust.  Just a square pizza labeled Detroit style.  If you've had one you know this isn't right

I'll make this short and sweet. We walked by this place and decided to try it. Pizza was mediocre. We got a jumbo with mushrooms and onion and a large spicy Detroit style. The jumbo had barely any toppings. There were at least 3 pieces that had no topping at all. 2nd the "Detroit style" was not a Detroit style. It was a normal square pizza. Nothing at all like a Detroit style.

Thanks for the burnt pizza. I shouldve checked on this before i left the place. The pizza tastes burnt also

Jumbo Supreme Pizza...yum!!
Max H.

Jay's Pizza is the best value in Monterey Park, especially their Wednesday and Sunday Jumbo (18") specials -- get a Supreme for just $18 + tax or a 1-topping for $12 + tax. They are also well-known for their massive 28" pies. Online ordering is the most convenient, and allows scheduling precise pickup times in 10-minute increments. The only parking is curbside, is extremely limited, and can be problematic at busy times or on days when there are special events (such as today's FIFA Final Match). But definitely worth the effort.

Large pizza
Penny P.

What's up: Was scrolling through UberEATS to figure out what to grab for dinner and saw that Jay's Pizza had a bogo deal on their pizza. Figured it was a good reason to try them out. Parking: Street parking on the busy Garfield Ave. They have a green curbed portion right in front of their store for pick up but can be hit or miss. Environment: I placed my order online and had a short wait when I arrived at the store. The pizzas came out hot! Plates, cheese, and peppers are provided on request. Staff members were friendly. I gave them my name, grabbed the pizzas, and was off. Fast and simple! What was ordered: - Large Pizza with Sausage (yum) Yay/Nay/Meh: Yay. Not only was the pizza good, the bogo deal made it even more awesome. Plenty of pizza for dinner and more. Depending on how busy the area is, you might need to walk a bit for parking. Credit cards are accepted.

This is how they make the pizza in jay's pizza

The pizza from that place is it's horrible. The pizza it's always burn from the bottom. We has order 3 pizzas in three times and he was disgusting to know that the guy they had working in the back doesn't even know how to make pizza cause he was putting the pallet of pizza on the floor in picking up the pizza with the same dirty hands Disgusting would not recommend it to anybody.

Pepperoni and sausage.

If you're living in or just passing through the northern side of Montebello to visit the Top Golf then Jay's HAS TO be the spot you hit for pizza! I'm a long time patron whether they know it or not. I live in the area and have returned to, and recommended Jay's countless times. My favorite thing about their pizza is quite honestly the dough they use for the crust. It's soft, tastes like fresh baked bread and is irresistibly dippable in whatever sauce you get. Oh, and there's of course the toppings that go on the crust! The cheese? Sharp and stretchy. It's firm and melty. The toppings are always good, I've had just about everything they offer and have never had anything bad. The wings they offer are on the bigger side and have always been perfectly coated and cooked. I've never had dry or skimpy wings from Jay's. Their service is impeccable and they always have a good attitude. Their dining area is warm and spacious. They have TV's. Parking is street parking and there's usually plenty of space to park in the front. I will continue to eat here and recommend it to friends and family.

Support local small business, reasonable prices, good taste & flavors, large portions. Large 1 topping, 12 wings 2 different flavors & a side for $35 w tax. Can't beat that!

Pepperoni and mushrooms with wings
Carlos L.

Always fresh, always delicious. Since it's Red Devils days, this place hasn't disappoint.

Sunnie M.

Love to support a local small business. Pizza was hot and super fresh out of the oven. Ingredients taste simple and high quality. The wings were delicious, generously coated in sauce.

Sausage and mushroom. Skimpy on the toppings and it was all in the center. The part near the crust didn't have anything on it.

Military discount olive oil instead of red sauce?

How many slices do the jumbo and monster sizes have?

I would say jumbo had 14 slices, so the monster has 28 slices. Just guessing.

How many slices is the Monster pizza? And how many people do you think 1 feeds?

I saw them take out a whole cheese pizza from the oven and immediately requested that fresh slice.

Each bite was crisp with the right chew, and perfect sauce to cheese ratio. How cool that we have this gem in the NELA hood!

I've only tried their pepperoni slices, which I thought were great (though I thought the pizza had a crispier texture that I preferred compared to my second visit). I also liked their chocolate chip cookie but found the garlic knots to be so-so, thinking that they could benefit from a more robust garlic flavor. I'm curious about ordering a full pizza pie in the future, and I'm sure I will revisit.

The restaurant sells itself as an East meets West, New York Style, California Vibes establishment, and it achieves this effectively. I came by with my daughter on a Saturday afternoon. The inside, see photos, is clean, well organized, filled with TVs playing sporting events, and sporting an open kitchen, and a self-serve beer and wine bar. I especially liked the pizza boxes available to take extras to go, as well as other conveniences easy to grab. After resisting the many delicious looking beer options, I ordered a personal Manhattan Meat lovers pizza ($14), a crisp, well constructed small pizza with excellent crust, no flop, and multiple meaty toppings. My daughter had the Shrimp Scampi with Linguine ($18), which included a trio of garlic knots. The pasta was cooked perfectly el dente, was exceptionally lemony and garlicky which I can appreciate, and included six large shrimp. While the sauce could have been a little thicker I thought this was quite good for a pizza and beer place. Everything was made fresh. The staff was friendly, made good recommendations, helped us get a to go bag, delivered food as it completed with a smile, and overall seemed quite happy to be there. Prices, above, I found to be quite resonance for an independent chain offering food of this quality for sit-down. Mamma's was a surprising hit, offering great food and casual vibes at a great price. No doubt, I'll be returning with the boys for a couple pies and to enjoy the many drinks on self-serve tap - froyo for the old, yo! Food: 4.5/5 Ambiance: 4.5/5 Service: 4.5/5 Value: 4.5/5

We arrived when they opened at 5p and sat in one of their communal tables. It was a hot day and the AC wasn't up to the challenge. With the oven, the crowd and weather, it was rather warm inside. However, I guess it replicated an authentic dining experience in Italy. The restaurant became packed shortly afterwards and the conversations and laughter echoed vibrantly. It felt like we were in Italy. Our server, Alfred, was a pro and a delight. He took care of us without breaking a sweat and always with a smile. We tried many pizzas, salads and pastas. Everything was delish. What really caught my eye was the ribeye steak, which we didn't try. It's a monster ribeye at a very reasonable price. It looked amazing. I have no doubt I will be scarfing down one of those in the near future. I highly recommend a visit if you haven't been. Go hungry and know the portions are generous.

The decor is also very nice, it's like a transformation walking into a tasting area in a winery. I get why this place is the way it is, it is a different persona from the other owned establishment, but wine can be intimidating. You have the reds, whites, the sweets, the sparkling and etc. Not only the difference in profile, but you can pair it with food to enhance the overall flavor. There's potential to display educational decor or have sessions to educate. They do provide a wine club, but small steps can establish commitments with a new customer base. The pizza is delicious. The sauce is great, the crust is solid, and the toppings are of quality. If you want something light and fresh, the Margherita. The most underrated pizza since we are all accustomed to a lot of toppings on pizzas. This is a must try. This place out of the other owned spots has burrata cheese. I think adding mozzarella with burrata would improve this pie, but nonetheless still good. The truffle pig pizza was also good. If you're looking for meaty and something not too light, this would be a good option. I definitely will be back. Thanks for everything!
