Had the chance to try out this place thx to the tri-valley food event and I must say I'm pretty impressed with their pizzas. The cashier/pizza maker was very polite and easy going..I was fairly surprised they offered to add some basil to my cheese pizza. And overall their pepperoni was pretty good overall too. In terms of flavor and taste both are very good, their pepperoni I honestly don't order very often if at all these days..but it was a solid pizza but was a tad salty imo. As for the place itself, it's a pretty eclectically place, there is a place to sit and wait to your pizza, but if you looking for a sit down with the family..this isn't it. Overall, I sort of wish I lived closer to it but will come by if I see a coupon or special available again, I would probably try and stop by and give them more business.
For weekends, best to call in your orders by 4:30pm! The store stops online order platform when it's here busy. Be patient, an older couple runs the store from making the pizza to greeting guests, so be patient. A more to go pizza place since there's not much sitting area. Super clean interior! Called in around weekend 4:30pm and the pickup time was for 6:30pm. Order the Act 5 which is a combo pizza ($33). Sourdough crust is super delicious. Great chew, super airy dough, and sourness. Fresh ingredients for each bite. The box is also a pizza bib which is a unique design. Definitely try out this sourdough pizza!
Absolutely love this place. Such a unique and amazing pizza shop in Pleasanton. The owners are the best and they make you feel right at home. The pizzas are fantastic, full of flavor, and definitely separate themselves from the rest of the competition. The inside of the store could keep you entertained for a long time!
I have been wanting to try this place. A very small shop with a couple of table for dine in if you want. I got 3 pizzas to go. The pizzas are cooked to order so I did have to wait a little bit. I tried 2 of the 3 pizzas and both were delicious. Loved the crust. If in the area I would definitely try them again.
It was alright. I was really excited to try this place because of all the hype. I haven't done a yelp review in a long time but wanted to honestly review this place that is in yelp's "top 100 places" to eat. Basically just alright. Tastes like any pizza you could get anywhere. I think Mountain Mike's is better. I was disappointed they couldn't do half white sauce half red sauce but whatever. The pizza itself was soggy. The redeeming quality was the chicken was really good and not chewy or anything. 3.5*s. Just OK. Wouldn't eat it again.
Much To Do About Pizza in Pleasanton is hands-down the BEST pizza I've ever had! Every bite is absolutely delicious - perfectly balanced flavors, fresh ingredients, and crust that's baked to perfection. What makes it even more special is that the dough is fermented sourdough, which makes it not only taste incredible but also feel amazing on your tummy. You don't get that heavy, bloated feeling you usually do with pizza - it's just the best thing you can eat! On top of that, their customer service is outstanding. The staff is warm, welcoming, and genuinely cares about making sure every customer has a great experience. It's rare to find a place that not only makes incredible food but also makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. If you're looking for pizza that truly stands out - this is the place. Honestly, I'd say it's the best pizza in the world. Pleasanton is lucky to have this gem!
Much Ado About Pizza only does takeout from my experience. Establishment itself is clean, small, and has a couple seats. You can either order through their website or on the phone. Be advised the wait time for pizzas can be lengthy during dinner hours, but that shouldn't stop you from getting pizza here, cause boy is it worth the wait. I've had many other pizzas here and they all taste great, however... I think I'm now a rectangle pizza type guy because of this place. P.s. the girlfriend loves their pizza too, she craves it every now and then, so it makes deciding what to eat for dinner easy lol
Called in and the person on the phone was very friendly and let us know the wait time would be about an hour. We appreciated that as we don't mind waiting but it's good to know a time in case we didn't want to wait. We got cheesy bread and pepperoni pizza. The cheesy bread was crunchy but soft and gooey and the hot honey went great with it and on the pizza. The pizza was a bit small and had way too much pepperoni for my boyfriend I love all the pepperoni but was so flavorful. As someone who can't have too much red sauce I didn't mind it being super sauce heavy like every other pizza. Great flavor and texture. We were greeted when we walked in and provided an update on our order. We will deff be back
My favorite little pizza spot in the Tri-valley! (Not a dine-in restaurant, call your order in and take out) I discovered them at a Sips and Slice event that featured wine pairings with some of their specialty pizzas. I was impressed by the quality and loved that they are family owned by very nice people. So since then, I've been spreading the word far and wide to friends and family about them yet somehow dropped the ball on my review. While I patiently wait for the vegan cheese to be brought to the menu, I absolutely love all of the vegetarian options at Much Ado. Kira is a vegetarian so she knows how to make the veggies shine! The Tempest and The Quatrain being my favorites. Don't sleep on the bard bread or the epic dips :)
Much Ado is one of our favorite Shakespeare plays, and this pizzeria may be partnering with our favorite theatre company, so it's time to review. The website is humorous, and the pizza names are cute. We ordered an original Much Ado (cheese pizza) and a Quatrain, hold the onions. They were very friendly, and the pies were ready quickly. The small space is loaded with posters and things that make you want to look around for a while. We brought the pies home, and the box interiors were adorable, see the pictures. The pizzas were good and tasty, but not spectacular. Still, we'll continue to support this small family owned business.
Unique pizza, friendly colorful couple making pizza, delicious, down to the crust. Vegetarian pizzas were amazing, especially the ones using point Reyes cheese, on a blanket of fresh basil. Wow. It won some awards and it is amazing. Sorry, the names are complex and escape me. There's another pizza that is choc-full of vegetables cooked and raw which is also great. It's pizza but it feels healthy to eat and might be my favorite pizza of all time for that reason. The pizza place interior is nice, only a couple seats (5 approximately) but fun arcade and the couple wearing colorful pizza hats. Always friendly. read more
First off, I really love the interior design even if it's just a takeout establishment. The couple who run the establishment really love the work they do and the pizzas they make. I played a round of space invaders; I did somewhat poor hahaha. I really enjoyed their kindness when they gave the pizza. Once I got home and took a bite, wow. First, I will say the sourdough is a bit more subtle with the flavors for this pizza. But you can tell it's sourdough as you get closer to the crust/edges. I really like the balance of the meats being that they don't overpower the pizza with saltiness. This is the pizza establishment for those who like chewy pizzas with sourdough and well balanced flavors and owners who are dedicated to serving the some of the best pizzas in the world. read more
Really good pizza sauce!! We had 2 pizzas: - Taming of the Chew: standard pepperoni pizza. Delicious - Montague:: which had house-made signature tomato sauce, premium Point Reyes Toma truffle cheese, premium whole milk mozzarella, provo-nello blend, pepperoni, Italian sausage, mushroom. This was amazing!! Again, love the sauce and the meats were tasty. The only thing I did not taste much was the Point Reyes Toma truffle cheese... maybe it could use more? Either way, it was DELISH!! The pizza dough had really good flavor, but it was a little too thick for us - we like thin crust. The family that owns it were there and they are all soooo nice and friendly. It is a take out establishment only - so be prepared to either take it home or eat in the parking lot. IMPORTANT: You MUST order ahead!!! Either do it online or call directly. Also, they only have limited late afternoon/ early evening hours... so again, check ahead. Parking could be difficult... but if you go in the evening... there is plenty of parking. Would I go back? YES! read more

Customer service was 10/10; very nice and welcoming. The pizza itself was amazing. The sourdough crust to the sauce and over all toppings I chose was out of this world. I chose to build my own pizza and did a white truffle sauce and got the hot honey as well to drizzle on top and it was one of the best pizzas I've had in awhile. read more

Wow!! What an amazing find and recommendation from Yelp's top 100 places to try in the U.S.! Sourdough pizza dough is where it's at! We tried the Montague and the Groundling and we're hooked! We enjoyed how tasty, crunchy and chewy the sourdough crust was and the amount of toppings is generous, which we love. We can't wait to go back! We ordered online and it took about 40 min, well worth the wait. Staff are friendly and parking is free which makes pick up a breeze - thankfully too because this spot is take out only. Will definitely be back! read more

My usual is 1-2 Pieces of pizza. Decided to write review, while eating my pesto/chicken pizza slice, but couldn't stop eating until I'd devoured 1/2 of the pizza, all by myself . It's truly an outstanding award winning pizza. As a longtime sourdough cook, myself, I'm so impressed with this Sourdough crust. Real Sourdough is good for the microbium in your gut. I put honey on the crust ends for desssert! This is the "real deal"Pizza! Welcoming Family run. Can hardly wait to go back and try other flavors! read more

This is hands down the best pizza you can get in the Tri-valley area. And the owners are just a fantastic couple all around. Regardless if and when we go here they always wear a smile and never disappoint. Unfortunately when I decided to take the picture half the pizza was already gone :-) I guess it speaks to the quality and appreciation of my family. Word of advice: order your pizza early, as they do get busy and the pizza wait can get long. read more

Service: wonderful. Very happy and friendly and smiley lady wearing a funny hat at the register. Felt good to order from her. Food: delicious pizza. It has the best vegetarian menu for pizza ive ever seen. Got the round groundling. Pesto is flavorful. The crust is a nice and chewy sourdough. Would come back again! read more
Saw this place as one of Yelps' 100 best eats in California. I've been to TP Tea in the same plaza so many times, but never tried this place. I didn't realize there was no space to really eat at the restaurant, but I was ordering take-out anyway. The couple seems very nice. Been only making pizzas for 2 years since the pandemic and were teachers before. We got a Henry the "8" pizza. I thought it was above average. Wifey liked it as she normally doesn't like pepperoni because it's too salty, but this place did it just right. We also ordered a Cheezy bread and it was a pleasant surprise - crunchy and chewy. The texture and the taste were great. Interesting that these were sourdough. I don't think the sourdough really affected my taste though. Oh yeah, I would come back! read more

Wow! What more can we say than what most Yelpers already said! So grateful to finally find another delicious pizza joint close to home that check off all the boxes!!!!! Wohooo! read more
I wanted to hit up this place for the longest time and today, a lazy Tuesday afternoon I decided to visit. Kinda hidden in Mission plaza in Pleasanton the sign is not too large and the joint is real small as in no dine-in or outside seating either. Matter of fact the whole plaza has pretty much same size signage. I've seen the place in an article I read and a video I saw online. The theme is Shakespeare and the pizza comes in only one size ( about 8 slices) ready in about 10 minutes if it's not busy like when I was there. I noticed no beverage machine. They do have wi fi with a password posted. Lots of Vegetarian and vegan options. I wish they had photos of the pizzas but the menu just had descriptions only. I took photos so people can get the feel of the place. It is run by a husband and wife duo team, very hospitable. The price of the pies are not cheap $36 I paid for one called the Huntsmen- basically an all meat that is not on the menu. They gave me a small hot honey packet as a sample haven't tried it yet. Parking is plentiful but this is off a main busy street. Next door businesses include an Indian restaurant named Tabla and a small nail salon. As for the pizza, I like it. The ingredients and dough use are top quality and they topped the pizza with plenty of meat and pepperoni cups and , not too oily. The pieces needed careful removal from. The whole pizza as the cheese was spreading and falling apart at first slice then the rest turned out easy to remove .This is not a spot for like ordering for a kids party but for more like sharing a pizza between 2-3 people in my opinion. Napkins , plates and pepper flakes and Parmesan are given upon request. I also took a couple of pics of the menu of two pages. Service is very friendly. The almost 5 Star rating s on this review platform is legit. Uniquely ,they have the 3 mini arcade games on a table which I have never seen in a pizza place before which was super cool. They also take credit cards. They have many awards, recognitions and magazine , newspaper articles that show their pizzas on display throughout the parlor. read more

Ordered a custom pizza with the following toppings: * Olives * Sausage * Mushrooms * Kale * Tomatoes * Yellow/Red/Orange peppers Cheese was was fresh and the flavors were excellent. The crust has a very nice flavor and consistency and none of the ingredients nailed me with sodium like at some pizza makers. The edge of the crust is particularly good as it is almost fluffy with some air pockets. Why the single star beat down for a pizza that was arguably very well made with high quality ingredients? Simple - during the custom ordering process we asked for 1/2 the pizza to have olives. The whole order was just us picking the ingredients so that does not seem hard to do and obviously Round Table and others do that all the time. We were told no 50/50 splitting of toppings. Kinda of a fail for such a good pizza. I don't know how to cook but I know enuf to just put olives on one half of a pizza! read more
Great local pizzeria. They do a single size of pizza, which is about 14 inches and serves 2-3 people. I came with one other person and getting the stuffed bread and one pizza was just about perfect. They have some limited seating inside but I highly recommend chatting with the owners! They are super sweet. Their son drew the super cute logo as well. Amazing local spot. read more

Have any vegan cheese? If so, what kind do you use? The best is the Miyokos liquid mozzarella in case you Heinrich serve it and have plans to offer it in the future
How big are these pizzas? The look like they're 8" but the price is $23, so I think I am not seeing them correctly. What size are they?…
They are 14 inch rounds and should easily feed 2-3 people. We also have a "Marlowe style" which is approximately 13 x 9 and thicker (like focaccia) but is again designed to feed 2-3 people. I hope this helps.
Do you happen to offer gluten free crust? I have celiac but love pizza. Some pizza places order gf crust from the outside and then put their toppings. Mountain Mikes does this and it's really good. Wondering if you'd be willing to do the same.
As of now they do not.
