The best pizza on the other side of the globe. We were a bit disappointed with the first few food choices and just craved something simple. I pulled up my Yelp app to discover a hidden gem known as Pizza Julia. It was quite a journey finding this local pizza spot. You have to walk through an alley for about one block to get here. At first I was skeptical thinking that a random place like this is not legit. When we arrived, the line was out the door on a Sunday evening. There are no tables for dining in. They only offer carry out or Uber Eats. You can order your pizza then eat out front since they have a few high chairs. I already had a good feeling about this pizza joint since the locals seem to love it. The owner is super nice and shared with us that he used to have a pizza restaurant in NY. It was a breeze placing an order because the staff speaks English. The pizza takes about 15 minutes to prepare. There are several varieties of pizza toppings. We chose the pizza Cesar which has chorizo, black olives, red onions, arugula and grape tomatoes. After a moment of anticipation, our pizza was ready. It looked so fresh and delicious straight out of the oven. I was so excited to take a bite. Omg, this is the most amazing pizza ever. I'm not even a fan of pizza. They have converted my taste buds. Add the spicy sauce and you will be floored. If you're visiting Paris, Pizza Julia should be on your bookmarks. You will enjoy it as much as I did! We had to stop by here twice during our trip. read more

AMAZING Pizza in Paris! I came 3 times on my visits for late night meals. It's a hole in the wall and down an alley. Don't worry, it's safe and your taste buds will not be disappointed! Really fast and friendly service. The fresh artesian pizzas are the star of show here. Crust is amazingly perfect and the toppings are fantastic. Absolutely LOVE they had beef and not just pork as an option. Soooo good! A MUST try! read more

Good, affordable pizza in Paris! Let's get something out of the way - this pizza is not the highest quality ever, but at the given price point, it punches above its weight class. The small pizzeria has received over 40 awards and there is a good reason for that. It's a solid pizza choice that may be a bit out of the way but it is totally worth it! It's packed full of flavor, the experience is memorable, the staff is friendly and always happy, and the customers are no different. Solid, solid place! read more

So I wish I could get pizza like this in ny I know that's a crazy thing to say especially considering how put off I was at first to see so many toppings on a pie. The way that they do it is delectable, they cut up the vegetables just right and put the perfect amount, perfectly balanced to create a masterpiece in every type of pie they have. See you next time I'm in Paris. read more

This minuscule pizzeria packs a whole lotta punch. The walls are literally plastered with certificates and awards flaunting its status and the duo behind the counter (not sure of their relation, but they're certainly not shy when it comes to expressing their critiques towards one another) add a lively twist to the already charged environment. I called before opening hours to try and order a few pies to go and I was told it would take an hour, but to call in 15 minutes to see if we could have them earlier. As we were driving through the neighborhood we just stopped by, and I was able to place the order face-to-face. The wait was a good 15 minutes as there was already a queue of people. While the chef was preparing the pizzas they didn't look like anything out of the ordinary, but when we put them in our mouths once home, it was clear why people love this place: the crust is perfect! Just the right balance of doughy to crispy, floppy to firm, and the salt factor was spot on (often an issue I find with French pizzas). The sauce is homemade and the toppings fresh while not at all out the ordinary. To call in the best in the city? I wouldn't go that far, but for take-away pizza the quality/cost is pretty great and as a bonus they give you a free drink for every pizza when you check-in on Yelp. read more

Remembering this today, starving at home, wishing for pizza, this good memory popped into my head when me and my SO found this place down the street. Tomatoes, arugula, and a drizzle of balsamic glaze I didn't know I needed it but now I don't eat pizza any other way. Yes go. read more

Solid pizza and the owner is super sweet and helpful. However, this place is not deserving of the five-star review in my opinion. I had the Pizza Regina and I've eaten many better thin-crust pizzas. It's a good option if you are in the area and looking for take-out, but not worth traveling across town for. There are only four seats in there so don't count on eating in. read more

Pizza Julia - Pizza Regina. Solid thin-crust pizza but not out of the ordinary. - Pizza Near Me - Paris, 75

Was rather underwhelmed with pizza Julia. To be clear - the food gets a solid 3-3.5 stars. The service definitely gets more of a 4-4.5 stars! Very nice people, one of the pizza makers speaks great English as well. Also, not expensive at all. I ordered the "chef" it has proscuitto, some veggies and balsamic on it. Overall I just wasn't that impressed for a pizza place that is supposed to be best in the city! Still good though, don't get me wrong. The crust was perfect. The flavors just really didn't work that well for me. If I have time I will give it another shot before I leave Paris! read more

Got the veggie pizza there tonight. Fantastic, one of the best ever. Very friendly owner and low prices. I took Yelp's advice and I do believe this is the best pizza in Paris. They have a couple of seats, it is 98% takeout, but grab a bottle of French wine, take the pizza home, and enjoy. This was super good place, highly recommended. Only 10.5 euro for my delicious pizza. Close to Bastille. read more

Pizza Julia really is as good as I had heard it to be. I had the Vegan Pizza, and the pan was amazing. I would have loved vegan cheese on it but the garnish was really well thought-out and felt like enough. My friends got the cheese pizza and absolutely loved it. We can feel that every ingredient is chosen and manipulated carefully. A real taste of Italy! read more

Take away pizza that was delicious and affordable on a quiet street in Bastille area. You can eat out front on a few stools or there is a court yard in back with a few seats. I think it was 8 euros for a Margherita pie. Definitely enough for 2 people. read more

Finally a good pizza parlor in Paris! The pizzas are made to order, and the dough is amazing. The toppings are also fresh and delicious, but the dough is what made it top notch for me. At ~€9-12 the pizza (coming with a free drink), it was a very good surprise. Service is also great - both the cooks and the waiter are awesome, super friendly with everybody coming in. Do not plan to eat in there though - the shop is tiny, there are only four stools and you'll probably regret not taking your pizza to go! read more

Where there's smoke, there's fire! Well that's what "they" say and normally that's true but at Pizza Julia the smoke is as a result of the cooking some serious amount of pizza in a shop the size of most walk-in closets with poor ventilation. And as is the norm with popular restaurants in Paris, there was a heard of people huddled around the front door upon my arrival, waiting for what I've read is some serious pizza. Having a look at the menu, you have a few of the Paris/Europe regular pizzas and some pizzas unique to the chef, as well as the pizza Julia named for the restaurant. For me, I was always told that you judge a pizzeria not on the crazy combinations they can create but rather to start first with the basic Margherita. This gives you the opportunity to clearly taste the sauce, cheese and bread all the while seeing if the chef adheres to the Neapolitan pizza techniques for a certifiably great pizza. Upon paying 8 euros for a takeaway margherita pizza, I had to wait for another eight pizzas and one calzone to be served up to the poor souls seated in front of a mirror and the others cramped in the remaining waiting/ordering area, 10 minutes later with pizza in hand I headed back outside to find a place to sit and eat. Finally, seating secured outdoors on a frozen tiled bench I dug in. First thing that I noticed was that this was not a Pizza Margherita, instead it was a Pizza Marinara. This is noteworthy because Margherita as the menu listed it, comes with fresh basil whereas the Marinara comes with Oregano. Second was that while the pizza seemed correct in size, the dough looked like what you'd get from a frozen pizza - flat and hard, seemingly not hand-made and definitely not: "When cooked, it should be soft, elastic, tender and fragrant" as stated by Associazione Vera Pizza Napoletana. Third I'll combine the remaining two points for brevity, the sauce was good, not amazing and the cheese, which the menu stated was a double shot of mozzarella appeared and tasted to be a grated hard cheese. For me, I had to make quite a trek to get to Pizza Julia and while the staff were very friendly and the experience unique, I can't say I'll return. If you're looking for great pizza in Paris where they can really deliver on a pizza margherita then stop by either Pizza Cesar or O'scia, they have consistent results that are inline with what you'll find in Italy. read more

I followed everyone on Yelps reviews, and wound up here after drinking a bottle of wine... And I was incredibly thankful. First off, the place is seriously teeny. It reminded me of my favorite place for pizza in NYC, which has no seating. I got the pizza Julia, for 8 euros, and it definitely was enough for two people. The crust, the seasoning, the eggplant? Everything was so good The owner was also so sweet and welcoming. He deserves many more awards! Go here! read more

Amazing! Very affordable and lots of options. Also have vegan / veggie pizza. Cool newspaper clippings and newspaper articles / awards from the cook read more

This place was amazing!!! The pizza was so so good! We got the Chef & the four seasons. We took one to go and ate one in. They gave us drinks with our pizzas too! They were so nice and spoke English with a smile! It was super helpful since I made this trip on the fly and my French is very poor. I will be back for this place! I live in NYC and I wish I had pizza this good there. A pie in NYC can be $25 so I found all of these very reasonable and super super fresh!!! read more

Was delicious! We had Pizza Julia & Vegetarian. They even give you a free drink with each pizza. Only downside: you have to eat in the street or take home. read more

Great and affordable pizzas. They gave us free drinks. Be mindful of the fact that this is a take-out place. It closes at 11:30pm but you may not be able to place orders after 11pm. People are lining up because the pizzas are really good. read more

One of the absolute best pies I have had. The crust is very fresh, crunchy yet still soft on the inside. The toppings appeared to be very fresh. We went on a busy Saturday night and after ordering with the very nice gentleman was told it would be about 15 minutes. The menu was in several different languages, I believe 4 or 5. There are seats to eat in for 4 people, of course they were not available while we were there which explains people sitting on the sidewalk for blocks with this pizza! I am not sure why, but when we were leaving with our pies the gentleman offered us two free drinks of our choice. Very kind, and speedy quick even during what I imagine is their busiest time! read more

If you are looking for pizza in Paris, it would be a mistake to pass up Pizza Julia! It is a bit off the beaten path and not the kind of place I imagine many tourists seek out. Everything was seriously delicious and reasonably priced, between 8-10 euro per pizza. We tried the Pizza Julia (eggplant, artichoke, balsamic drizzle) and Pizza Paysanne (smoked lardons, onion, creme fraiche, egg). The pizzas are fairly large and we probably could have split one between two people, but if you don't eat the crust it's a good size. The crust was respectable, but it's the toppings and attention to detail that really shine. For example, there is one egg on the Paysanne. Rather than putting it in the center of the pizza and obliterating it when everything is sliced up, the delicate egg is off center. This way, the egg stays more in tact and each slice has a slightly different set of toppings. Kind of a weird observation I guess, but it make for a fun experience where every bite was a little different. Anyhoo.... As other reviewers have said, there is virtually no seating. We just took ours to go, walked about a block, and found several other people sitting on some steps enjoying their pizza, so we joined them. Keep in mind they are closed Monday and Tuesday, and are only open for dinner starting at 6:30PM. read more

Amazing, cheap pizza in Paris! What we didn't know was that you couldn't eat in the actual restaurant, (because it's small, there are two stools in there) so be prepared to walk anywhere you need to go with your pizza. read more

Terrific, hand-made pizza. I was looking for some classic fast food and followed the reviews here. There are a few chairs outside - no tables - if you want to eat in 'on-site'; I took mine back to the hotel. There was a constant stream of delivery services to testify to their popularity. The Quatre Saisons had enough toppings to complete it without risking making it soggy. The crust was light and just the right amount of crispy. I enjoyed it. read more

Good cheap pizza! And very nice staff; super small has in there's only two chairs that are pretty cramped in but there's a river near by you can enjoy it at called Port de l'Arsenal Garden. read more

I heard this was one of the best pizza places in Paris. So one day I went to check it out. I am very happy I did. They have an awesome pizza menu (not just in French but English, Italian, German and Spanish!). The prices were perfect for those of us on a budget. Very small shop but super friendly people! Also it's clear why it's so popular by all the awards they have! I had the Pizza Napolitaine, and it was delicious! Highly recommend this place. read more

My husband and I came here for dinner on our last night in Paris. It's gotta be one of the top 3 meals we had in our whole trip, London included. The place is tiny, and it gets busy. We ate out pizza at the counter and there's really no space to move, especially when people start coming in and lining up to order. The pizza is done quick and it's absolutely the best feeling to break into a fresh out of the oven pizza. Will definitely recommend everyone to come here! read more

Very friendly owners Hole-in-the-wall (which is a plus for me!) Good variation Great price! I'm from San Diego which is surprisingly the pizza capital of the States, so it's very hard to impress me with pizza. That being said, Pizza Julia was still a good experience, but I'm not sure I would go back there again just because it didn't feel very special. The flavors are good and the owners adorable, but I was just not that impressed! Ahh--sorry! If you really want to try homey, fresh pizza, then definitely give this place a try. You get a 10in or so diameter pizza for about 10 euros. Not bad! read more

My wife and I were out late in Paris 10pm and lots of places in the area we had been (Champs Elysee area) were closing. Instead of searching too hard, we decided to just get pizza and eat it back at the Airbnd. My wife made a great call. Here's why: 1) Pizza Julia is in the Bastille area and was really convenient to where we were staying. 2) The service was great. The order taker spoke English and this made the process easy. He was really nice and I wish I knew his name to give him credit. 3) The Chicken Royal Pizza was awesome and really hit the spot. 4) The pizzas are super affordable. We basically got a whole pizza for 10 Euro. We thought since it was so cheap it would be like a personal pan pizza. No, it is a little larger than a CPK pizza. WELL worth the price. 5) They literally took 5-10 mins to make the pizza. Pizza Hut takes like 40! We were impressed. The one thing to note, if you want to eat in, there are only 2 seats and they are right next to the ordering counter. read more

Perfect place for some good pizza -- fresh ingredients made to order. Loved the Four Cheese and the Margarita pizzas. Very reasonable price and excellent service! The place is pretty small -- room for about 5 people at the counter. I'm guessing most people do take-out. We dined in and there was just enough seats for us. Definitely would recommend this place if you want a break from French food. read more

Even in Paris, pizza is a good value. The pizza tasted really fresh. We ordered the Pizza Julia and the vegetarian pizza, both were good. The restaurant itself is a hole-in-the-wall carryout only type, and the employees were very patient and explained the menu. read more

Worth the walk, and don't mind the street. Plus it's a later night option, which is extremely useful when most kitchens close earlier. Service is kind and helpful. My wife has a mushroom allergy which rules out many of the options without prior modification, so ordered the paysanne. Oh man, it was delicious, generous amounts of toppings, great flavor, and some spicy oil in the box to add! The black olives and red onion just went so well together, and the bacon was awesome. read more
