This pizza place in California is so freaking good. I recommend a hot honey with pesto. Not too hot just hits the spot. Also the garlic knots were good too 75 radium read more

Pearl St is buzzing with its food scene, including Pizza on Pearl St. We arrived on a Saturday as soon as it had opened and people were already lined up to order pizza. My husband and I tried 4 different slices: - The Wally - thin crust, pesto base w/cupped pepperoni, hot honey, and fresh mozzarella - AB7 - thin crust, red sauce base w/cupped pepperoni, hot honey, and ricotta - my favorite!! - Hawaiian (thin crust) - Pizza of the Month - a thick white slice (no base sauce), pepperoni, topped with a drizzle of each sauce: red, pesto, and vodka Overall, the pizza here is BOMB and they have a wide range of slices to choose from on the menu. Service is quick, we ordered and our slices were warm and ready to eat within a few minutes. They also have a small parking lot out upfront, but we parked on the street fine. I can't wait to come back and try some more slices from Pizza on Pearl! read more

Looking for dessert after Tacos Stand from next door? Couldn't order ice cream because the machine was out of order. But we asked for the bathroom code-btw 1232#- Warning-If you order a single garlic knot, the minimum purchase it could take two tries and 20 minutes... Maybe just one too many tourists? The staff having a bad day? My apologies for inconveniencing you. read more

Dinner in San Diego, California... My cousins requested a place with pizza, beer, and a big screen TV... so that they could watch the football game. (Sorry, I can't remember who was playing... LOL!) I used my Yelp app and found: Pizza on Pearl This is a casual, cozy, low-key place with a small, shared, free parking lot right in front... and convenient restroom way in the back. The staff were friendly and helpful! We ordered at the counter and sat at a table. We were called when our warmed-up slices were ready to be picked up. We all enjoyed the crisp, thin crust A LOT! It was almost like a cracker, but lighter. The toppings were wonderful! I had a slice of The Greek, and then a slice of Verde. Both were delicious! Thanks for the hospitality and yummy pizza! read more

Saw the next door Taco Stand with a line all the way to Los Angeles. LOL Decided to dine at this place instead. Customer service not the best, they looked at me like I was bothering them when trying to order. My pizza was burned on the bottom and sides and I didn't care to tell them as I wanted to get back home. The orange canned beverage was quite tasty though. (A' Siciliana Sicilian Sparkling Blood Orange). When I left the pizza place I saw the line at Taco Stand was still long but moving so I opted to leave anyway. Don't think I will return back to Pizza on Pearl anytime soon. read more

Came in on a Friday night, none of the employees knew what was going on. Didn't take orders for 10 minutes while the line grew .. after I got attitude from the cashier , she took my order , and then asked me "what a supreme pizza was". Left it in the oven too long and I went home with burnt pizza. Poor guy next to me was there before I even arrived and they got his order wrong twice and he was still waiting when I left. Also I will add that this pizza is beyond a greasy factor- they must use cheep cheese. Do not recommend. read more

Pizza on Pearl is super underrated. They're $5 a slice. We got the Miramar. It's a white sauce thin crust pizza with pepperoni, bacon and spinach. Honestly one of the best things I've eaten today on my food adventure in La Jolla. I'll definitely be recommending this pizza joint and revisiting to try their other slices. read more

It doesn't look like much on the inside but for a slice shop, this among the best pizza I've had. The pesto pepperoni and the chicken bacon ranch were the best. Perfect crisp on the dough, pepperonis were delicious, loved every single slice. Go here! read more

Pizza on Pearl - Pizza Near Me - La Jolla, California

Great selection of NY slices (some with a California twist). We got the BBQ Chicken, The hot honey with pepperoni (not the pesto version), and a slice of cheese (not pictured). All were good and hearty (generous portions), but none I would crave. It's a good place to go if you are hungry and looking for something quick and relatively inexpensive, but personally I prefer Regents, Bronx or Moto as far as taste goes. Parking is a little tough here. If you are local or within walking distance, it makes it much easier. It's in the same strip as The Taco Stand, an Empanada place, and a burger place and there are only 5-6 shared parking spots. The server was not very friendly but maybe he was just having a bad day. Inside there were tables and a TV. The water button did not work very well on the soda machine. You need a code to use the restroom. Over all they have solid slices, but not somewhere I'd go out of my way to go. A+ for presentation though--the slices were visually appealing! read more

First time trying out this place and it was a good pizza ! I like how it was somewhat of a thin crust but my favorite was more of the stuffed knots they had. 10/10 would get that again. As for the pizza it was good just for me personally when biting into it, it was just super greasy. I loved the spot though they give good big portions and they're quick as well so the service is really good here. I recommend trying the stuffed knots ! Also just an FYI there's limited parking read more

We called In a pizza in the parking lot n they couldn't handle the calls , there were people waiting outside . So we got a large pepperoni which was $30 w xtra sauce. It was so delicious. From the tomatoes sauce to the crust. We just got it for a snack. But it was a place to get this pizza , now I understand why all those people waited outside. read more

My fiance and I ordered for a delivery from here last night. We ordered the Supreme Pizza which includes a variety of meat and veggies their garlic knots and a calzone like pizza bite. The Garlic Knot stuffed with cheese pepperoni and jalapeno was amazing! I'm really picky with bread dough and they had top-notch quality. Our pizza tasted fresh and tasty. A little spicy too! Quality is great I was very pleased. And it traveled well! 10 and out of 10 great pizza spot read more

I was excited to try this place because I saw some reviews on Instagram and the food looked delicious. Its located in a very small complex right on Pearl Street. If you blink you may drive right by it. Parking is very limited so we ended up parking in the neighborhood just to the west of it. We had a very short walk to get there. The pizza shop is very small and there is limited seating. We got there just before it got busy so we were lucky to get a table. The pizza's and knots we ordered were premade and they heat them up in the oven which makes sense but the garlic knots were pretty dry when we got them. I wish they had brushed them with some garlic butter after pulling them out of the oven because they needs some help. They are supposed to come with either ranch or marinara but we were not asked nor offered that option. My daughter and I both got a slice of the BCR (bacon, chicken, caramelized onion and ranch) pizza and it was amazing! Flavor is next level! My combo came with a salad which I picked Caesar and that was really good. Their Caesar dressing is like a vinaigrette, not creamy like most caesar dressing. I loved it! They were generous with the cheese and croutons on the salad. My son got meat lovers and buffalo pizza and his came with a small cup of ranch. The buffalo has garlic, chicken, buffalo sauce and ranch. It was really delicious! I only had one bite but my son said eating a whole slice it was spicy. My bite I didn't get spicy flavor however. He said the meat lovers was great. The pizza is thin and crispy. Overall really good. The customer service was meh. I mean there were several people working and no one was friendly. I felt rushed to order. Again, they didn't offer us the dipping sauces for the garlic knots and they ended up not charging us for my daughters slice and drink. I highly recommend the BCR and buffalo pizza. If you get the garlic knots make sure they give you the dipping sauce because without that they are dry and not buttery and garlicy like you would expect. read more

Thin crust pizza is fresh and made to order. Great selection of pizza by the slice. Order ahead and take out for easy weeknight or travel meal. We had a large cheese and a large green olives pizza. Took about 45 minutes when we ordered ahead. The wings are way too sauced, even though we asked for the sauce on the side. The garlic knots are good. Plenty of seating indoor and out for those looking to stay. There is a line when you go in to buy by the slice. Street parking available for pickup. The taco place next door has a massive line. read more

I wrote a review two years ago that a LARGE pizza was $31 before taxes. Now, a MEDIUM pizza is $35. It feels genuinely insane that they think they can charge that kind of money for cold, mid-tier, greasy pizza. In addition, their employees do not give a single damn about the food, cleanliness, or customer satisfaction. read more

Best nyc style pizza in San Diego. I got the pizza of the month and there "Miramar" pizza it was remarkable

This was an unexpected surprise. I thought it would be more mediocre but everything was really good. I loved the ambiance- it was very relaxed but clean and a nice place to eat with kids. The service was prompt and helpful. The food was really good! The garlic knots are a must and the kids really loved their pizza slices- they ate them all, which is rare. read more

They did not have one of the toppings I ordered and did not call me or tell the driver from Uber. The lady on the phone had a big mouth, and acted rude and entitled, not remorseful. If she had just said, I'm sorry about that, it would have been enough. Humility goes a long way. I asked for the manager and the woman was cagey, and said the manager's name was "Jay" (which I am not sure is accurate based on her cagey behavior and her laughing at me) and tthat he wasn't there. Really? Over a weekend when you are the busiest? The woman on the phone acted like a gatekeeper at a doctor's office. This is a pizza place. Your clientele and word of mouth is everything. The manager should be proud of his job. I hope the owner see this. Lorna's on governor drive is about as good, and they have better parking, and employees with manners. I suggest that the owner play at "undercover boss" and pretend to be a normal customer, and order something or ask to speak to the manager. Then you'll get it. You have a lot of recent 1 star reviews. Wake up call. read more

Absolute joke, $5 for a tiny slice of cheese pizza. $35 for a cheese pie?? Barely any crust, an insult to the whole Italian population in La Jolla. They used to be good before they were moto pizza and somehow it went back to pizza on pearl and got even worse than moto pizza. read more

Amazing pizza & friendly service! My favorite is classic pepperoni and the meat lovers! Love that they offer by slice or the whole pizza. Nice outdoor and indoor seating area. Love the staff & the whole vibe. Very glad they're back on Pearl St! read more

Pizza on Pearl - Pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - La Jolla, California

$25 for 4 slices of pizza is a joke. New owners, pizza is paper thin and ridiculously expensive. Lost our business.

Ordered a pizza at 4:30pm for a 7:00pm -7:30pm delivery thru the Uber Eats app (per their instructions). Driver shows up to pick up the order at 7:15pm and is told they can't find my order. So they cancel it. 30min before everything closes Christmas Eve, after all grocery stores as closed, of course. Don't order here if you were counting on pizza for dinner. Was my first and last time with them. read more

Best service ever. The service makes the experience here so good. I highly recommend checking out pizza on pearl in la jolla. It is right next to the taco stand. I recommend this pizza place over the taco stand. The pizza is also so good. Its worth it. Definitely check this spot out! I will be back! read more

The best thing by far since I had in San Diego and I'm from Texas on vacation. The best pizza in town.

It's pretty standard slice of pizza, not that special. We only came because taco stand next door had a huuuge line. I got a slice of the supreme pizza and it has pepperoni, green peppers, mushrooms. I also got a garlic knot which was very garlicky so that was yum! They call them garlic knots but it's more like a garlic bread stick lol. Each slice is $4 and a garlic knot is $1.50. Wish the slice was a bit more filling but still pretty good overall! read more

Pizza on Pearl - Veggie Pie, Margarita Pie, BCR Pie, Buffalo Pie - Pizza Near Me - La Jolla, California

Pizza on Pearl is back! But in my opinion, it's not as great as it was before. They remodeled the interior. I miss the red brick decor. Went on a Friday night during what I thought was rush hour and it was completely empty. Spent about $9 for 2 slices and a soda. It was reheated pizza in the oven and the bottom of both of my slices were burned. There were also flies everywhere so the ambience was just not it. Overall, not a great experience coming back. Hopefully the quality goes up and they fix the fly problem. Parking in that lot is almost impossible so I just park on next street over on the west side. So much easier. read more

First of all, the pizza slices are HUGE. We're talking Costco sized slices, and while they were definitely more expensive than Costco, I'm not complaining. They were so yummy and my kids were in heaven. The staff was very friendly and practically held my hand from start to finish to make sure I was taken care of. The seating situation is tricky because they share spots with the taco stand next door, but it was nice that I could get tacos for me and pizza for my kids and all eat together. read more

Pizza is okay, workers are very rude. Took 45 minutes for my order when they told me it'd be 20. Rolled their eyes at me because I told them they forgot part of my order and then they "ran out" of something I already paid for. They only "found some in the back" after we brought up that they forgot something. read more

Now I understand why this place has stayed in business for so long! I usually get tacos next door when I am in the area but was feeling pizza and decided it was finally time to try it since there was not a wait when I went in the afternoon on a Saturday. They display their pizzas by the slice similar to Bronx Pizza in Hillcrest but have more variety in flavor combinations and toppings. Each slice was $4 and they even have garlic knots and stuffed bread knots! I am so glad I noticed the garlic knots because they were heavenly; I would return just for those. The dough is soft and fluffy on the inside and the crust is flavored well without being too oily. They heat up the slices for you so that each slice is piping hot and fresh out of the oven when you eat them. The crust is thin and the ingredients are well-balanced. The sauces were not too salty or overpowering. Price-wise, it is comparable to Bronx Pizza but a little higher to accommodate the fact that they do accept card payments. The garlic knots are 6 for $6 and for the size of each one, that is not bad. Their service was fast and the interior felt spacious. I would recommend if you're in the La Jolla area! read more

Pizza on Pearl - Mushroom , Pineapple & Artichoke Stromboli. Meatball, Bell peppers& Red onion Stromboli. Garlic knots on the side! - Pizza Near Me - La Jolla, California

We went to Pizza on Pearl because I have been following them on Instagram. I knew I was moving to La Jolla and I wanted to make sure I hit all the fun places. Every picture that I saw on Instagram made the pizzas look amazing so I was so excited to try them! Unfortunately when I got there, they did have so many different pizzas, which is awesome but they just didn't look that good. They looked sort of old. We went ahead and got a pizza of different types including a Margherita slice, a barbecue chicken slice, and mostly Cheese slices. They were out of the Vegetarian Vegetable when we went. Once heated up, the pizza looked a little bit better, but it was just an average tasting pizza-- nothing that special. I liked the thin crust. It was about $30. I don't think I would go back. Staff was nice. The parking is pretty bad because it's next to the over-rated Taco Stand which has a humongous line all the time. You can park on the street like up the street a little bit-- fairly easily and walk. I don't mind walking, but it might be harder for an older person. read more

Staying for the weekend, and wanted pizza so we found pizza on Pearl. It's very good quality, good pricing for pizza these days. We got a cheese and a pepperoni pizza. It's a small place in a very small strip mall kind of location with limited parking that was the only problem we had to park about a block away to get there. It's right next to a very crowded taco shop, which had a line out the door. There are a few parking spaces right there, but they were all taken, but that's an issue with La Jolla, parking that is. Anyway, for people who like pizza this is definitely a good place to try. read more

Solid 4 stars . I really enjoyed eating here after spending a nice day at windnsea beach . My friend loves it here and I can see why. Highly recommend their house salad and their ranch dressing . It's packed with feta cheese , Peperoncini , tomato and red onions . It's so delicious. I also recommend their garlic twists . They are the bomb ! Their bbq chicken pizza was amazing . The sweet bbq sauce with the chicken and their perfect dough and perfect amount of cheese makes this pizza choice a top pick . Can't wait to eat here next time I'm in LJ. read more

I feel like pizza is really hard to mess up but this wasn't great. Despite being advised not to try Pizza on Pearl, I still had to try it. The sauce is bland, cheese was kinda gross and the dough/crust had the consistency of the premade store bought kind. I tried a slice of the buffalo, meat lovers and pepperoni. The buffalo was my preferred of the 3. read more
