Very very busy when we walked in, located inside a community center so not obvious to find. Location had a playground and bocce ball etc outside. Maybe we got the wrong pizza.... But it was not that great. A third of the pizza lacked sauces and toppings and parts seemed a bit burned maybe . Machiavelli lacked flavor, the mushrooms were basic mushrooms like the button kind. I had too high of hopes to inking the "mushroom" blend would be something more special. The smoked prosciutto and pepperoni somehow didn't have much flavor at all. One of the slices of pizza basically didn't have toppings because the dough had a huge bubble. read more

Pizza is great, service is awesome, and I am a sucker for a Mug Club! Our go to each weekend we are up here!!! read more

Pizza on the Hill - Pizza Near Me - Truckee, California

Great location, friendly staff, tasty food! It did take longer for them to have my Togo order ready than they told me over the phone, but considering their small kitchen it was no big deal. read more

Finally tried this spot! It's a hidden gem towards the middle of Tahoe Donner. There are indoor and outdoor seats, order at the counter and find a seat. Staff is so nice, friendly, and welcoming. Their wings and pizza were good. Large pizzas! So you may want to consider a kid's size if it's just you or a small party of two. Beer on top, good wine option, playground for the kids, live music on some nights. What else do you need? read more

Did the food take almost an hour after we ordered? Yes. Did I drink like 5 beers while waiting for my food? Yes. Was my wife slightly irritated that I got drunk? Yes. Did my kids play their asses off in a beautiful place? Yes. Were all the other parents tolerant of each other's kids being terrible while on vacation? Yes. Long story short, this place is perfect for families that understand life isn't perfect and things don't always go according to plan. If that doesn't apply to you, I would HIGHLY recommend going somewhere else. read more

Great pizza. Crust is chewy around the edges and is great with ranch dressing to finish it off.

Just a wonderful place for pizza, beer, and a really good time. (You don't have to live in Tahoe Donner to eat here)

Great food and service. Pizza was plenty for a few of us. Veggie had a nice kick. Had music from a live band playing, but got rained out

Great food and service, definitely recommend and we are looking forward to coming back and enjoying again

Love this place and now they are back open after covid and better than ever! We had the Margarita pizza and a chicken Caesar. The chicken Caesar had a drizzle of balsamic which was a great addition. Desert we had pizzuke which was a warm cookie with ice cream and chocolate and we asked for Carmel too! Yum!!! Had wine off their very affordable and delish wine list. Next time I am going for the cheese curds. So happy they are open - but only for reservations - no take out! Support our local awesome Tahoe Donner business! You'll be glad you did. read more

Pizza on the Hill - Pizza on the Hill! - Pizza Near Me - Truckee, California

See all

I have been to pizza on the hill many times as it's very close to my house and right next to the playground my kiddos play at. The food is overall good. I have enjoyed all the pizzas and really liked the caesar salad. My only gripe is the prices reflect a sit down restaurant but you have to go to the bar for all food/drink orders. I found the servers and workers super helpful but just an annoyance. read more

We are so happy Pizza on the Hill is open! Our family stays at Tahoe Donner every summer and there are always nights I'd like a night off from cooking and would prefer a short drive for either dine-in or takeout. This spot has everything - including a playground for the little ones! Pizza on the Hill has incredible pizza, tasty salads and an advanced beer and wine list. All of the employees were so kind and welcoming. Be sure to log in and make a reservation since it can get busy (even on a Tuesday in the summer). We will be back many (many) more times and thank you for the night off from my dinner duty! read more

Overall a great experience for me and my small family. Pizza was good! Is it top of the line? Not really, but the fast service and other amenities make this place worth your time. A play structure adjacent to Pizza on the Hill was great for our toddler. So you're telling me I can eat pizza, my child can play nearby AND I can have an adult beverage?! Game changer. Great for families! read more

Such an epic spot. Definitely check hours bc of season but we LOVE the pizza, LOVE LOVE LOVE that there's a park in front for summer days, kid friendly, awesome staff every-time; especially Shellie you rock! Prob one of our fave family restaurant/bars ever and being in Truckee is the cherry on top read more

Too greasy pizza. But cool ambience and not a bad spot to grab a bite to eat after a day of ski.

Right next to the pizza place. Walked around out here while we waited. Atmosphere is great. Lots of fun things to do. Definitely a family restaurant. read more

Pizza on the Hill - Outside the pizza place - Pizza Near Me - Truckee, California

I don't generally write reviews, but I had such exceptional service here that I wanted to share. I live in SF and was staying with friends in Truckee this week while skiing at Palisades. After a day of skiing, we didn't want to venture too far into town, so we came to their local pizza shop. It was pretty busy as it was trivia night, so we couldn't actually get a table. They were apologetic, but told us we could eat our pizza in the library area. We decided to take it to go instead. We waited about 20 minutes for our pizza, and during that time, several different staff members checked in on us to make sure we were didn't need anything else. It's funny because I was just complaining about service I recently received in SF, and I was blown away with how friendly and attentive the staff was at Pizza on the Hill. Oh and the pizza was delicious as well. I look forward to visiting again soon. read more

We were renting a cabin near by and were craving pizza. This place hit the spot! We ordered the combo, Greek salad and house carrot-ginger soup (of the day). Something about the dough that make the pizza and crust extra tasty. Lots of other items on the menu as well. read more

We had dinner there recently and everything was phenomenal. Apparently a full reboot was done when they re-opened this year (so any negative reviews from pre-COVID should be entirely disregarded) It is clear that the kitchen takes pride in what they're serving as everything was delicious. We will be back soon. Please support our local Tahoe Donner restaurants! read more

The food is like a Fourth of July firework grand finale with every bite. Wish it had more hours of operation read more

I had a large family reunion in town for the weekend. Pizza on the bill couldn't have been any better! The staff was amazing! They took care of the 25 family members of all ages. The venue was perfect for a large group, the kids got to run around, the adults were able to relax and enjoy the evening. The pizzas, salads and apps were great! My family was very impressed! read more

Horrible service, which lies between rude, chaotic and super slow depending on the day. Incompetent management desperately in need of change. New app prompts you to tip in advance. Do not get suckered into this. Must only be in business from its location. read more

Great spot to relax for parents with children. Food was very good too! Pizza, salad's & cold beer.

Great food, friendly staff, amazing for the kiddos in nice weather! POTH is a staple for our family.

The atmosphere for kids was great. Pizza was okay, service was super slow and we also ordered the pulled pork nachos. They were disgusting. I feel restaurants should recognize when an entree has barely been touched. The chips were soggy because it had SO MUCH CHEESE!! I never thought I could say something had to much cheese but, this was like cheese soup. We are locals and I would suggest Zano's or Pizzeria over this pizza place. So bummed to write a crappy review. I love supporting all of our local businesses. I actually just read reviews and I am floored the owners don't take these comments into account and fix the pizza!! It's pizza!!! Not hard to find a different brand if crust. ‍‍‍‍ read more

Awesome food and staff! Talked to the bartender while i was waiting for my food. Solid guy

Love this place, good pizza, friendly staff and an awesome kid friendly atmosphere. We got the garlic chips as a stater and wow what an amazing appetizer! Also ordered a Caesar salad, and a couple pizzas, everything was perfect, will be back again! read more

I would preferred to send a message your establishment privately, but there did not seem a way to do that. We had been referred to Pizza on the Hill by friends to visit while in Truckee and we were sadly so disappointed. We called in an order to be picked up. First, They had no pineapple( who doesn't have pineapple) I probably should have said No Thank you at that point- but I continued an order without pineapple- Then, they only explained they only had one size of pizza and each pizza was $20. So I had to order two. Again, another red flag- but was hopeful first recommendation was gonna be well worth it. My son went to pick up the pizzas, and sat there for 25 minutes before someone asked him again what he ordered and yes, his pizzas sat there done for that 25 minutes. Needless to say- no apology- no acknowledgement, barely any customer service at all. Pizza was cold- and had no flavor. Extremely disappointed- kids wouldn't even eat- and kids will eat any pizza. read more

I am a small business owner and bend over backward to avoid giving someone a bad review, but after several unsuccessful attempts to resolve the matter with three employees, it appears the problem is part of the culture of the place. Our pizza, which was "serviceable" at best, arrived at room temperature. I sent it back once and it returned still cold to the touch. I sent it back a second time -- for it's third cooking -- and it returned burned black across the top. I showed it to three employees -- in the kitchen, at the counter, and to our server -- and their response was the same, "Sorry." No offer to replace or discount it. So we left, pizza uneaten, for good. read more

I walked in to place a to go order. I was told that they didn't do to go. Seriously, during Omicron, no to go! I was told that they were too busy on Fridays. The restaurant had probably 25-30 people inside. It did not look super busy, but maybe that's their situation? Anyway I left hungry. read more

If I could give my experience a 0 it would still be too generous! We ordered a pizza, salad and two beers. Chowed down on the salad whilst we waited for our pizza. One beer lead to two... an hour and ten minutes later, and still no pizza. We decided to ask for it to go, as by this point we were sooo over sitting at the bar waiting. When we told our server, Lindsay, she got a blank look on her face followed by an audible "oh no." She never put our order in.... We said we'd rather cancel the order, but she insisted it would only take five minutes. We were expecting her to comp our beers or offer us another while we waited, but instead she avoided us completely. When she did make eye contact, she asked if we wanted to order another beer!!! Seriously?!? When we declined with a look of contempt, she coldly said, "your pizza will be ready in two minutes." Ten minutes later someone else brought us our to-go pizza, as Lindsay hid in the back. We got out of the restaurant only to discover they had given us the WRONG PIZZA!!! Furious, we went back in to get a refund but were met with a different box and told that we weren't supposed to take the one that was just given to us!!!!! Wow! This was followed by, "Do you want cheese?" Omg...the level of incompetence and rudeness was staggering. It would be one thing if the place was packed. As it was, there was only five of us at the bar. FIVE PEOPLE TO SERVE AND LOOK OUT AFTER!!! Clearly Lindsay was more interested in watching football and talking to her friends (two of the five at the bar) rather than doing her very simple job. Someone should school her on how to treat your customers when you've screwed up. This experience was not acceptable. With service like this, it's no wonder this place is in the red and its mere existence is subsidized by us TD members...not where I want my money spent! read more

I can't believe we forgot about how slow their kitchen is and how inexperienced their servers are... and came her for dinner at 5pm thinking we had "beat the rush." An hour later we still have not seen our main courses. The explanation the server offered was "we have a lot of to-go orders ahead of you." The place looked empty when we placed our orders, but wow. We won't make this mistake again... read more

We ate last night and were underwhelmed by service and food. Everything was overcooked and the staff was young and unpolished. Hoping for a new business at this beautiful location. read more

I went for the first time this past weekend and the servers were friendly and hospitable, the pizza had a good flavor. Lugnuts were tasty. We had a couple of appetizers and they were very flavorful and good. I also enjoyed my southwest salad. Highly recommend if you are a salad lover. I would recommend this place if you're looking for good food and service. Also they have a wonderful playground for kids there and picnic benches outside so you can eat your pizza and your children can play right there in front of you. I really recommend for families with kids read more

Yum! Everything we ordered was delicious. So happy to have this place back open, great remodel, and food is great too.

Oh wow! This place may look nice but the service is by far one of the worst! Waited in line for about 30 min to place a to go order. After about 3 people cutting in line I get to the front. The young lady says I'm sorry sir this is not the to go order line. She then points to the register about 2 feet away and said that's the line over there. Mind you I was the last person in line. I said ok I'll wait in that line of 2 people to place my order. Now in this line the lady bar tending is taking the orders. I wait again for about 20min. While I wait the bar tender gets two orders wrong no problem it happens. Then she's serves 2 other guest that walk up to the bar before taking care of me the last guest again in line. I place my order and decided after almost an hour of wait to order and almost being ignored I decided a tip was not call for. At that the bar tender said "I can't this hard and not make any money". Oh wow. I almost lost it. Not fan of this place. Don't go unless you want to be treated like you're invisible. Maybe that's just me but it's happened twice now!!!! read more

We had a very nice evening here during the shoulder season. Great gluten free pizza! My husband raved about their baked mac n cheese covered in chili. He had to take half home the portion was so big! My extremely picky daughter loved her corndog and fries. There is a kuds game room, open seating, and a nice laid back atmosphere. We will definitely be back. read more

Really delicious pizza and super friendly staff! So happy Pizza on the Hill is open again

Had dinner here when we arrived in Truckee. Was able to call ahead on our way and make a reservation. Perfect place for dinner with kids. Big outdoor area Wirh playground and games. Kids pizza was big enough for our 11 year old to be full. Also had a pizza do share and the seasons stone salad. Both were great. Very happy we found this gem read more

I don't know why but this always happens. It's mid April and not so many people around midweek in TD. I ordered 2 specialty pizzas at 23 bucks a piece. The crust was awful, like cardboard and the edges were too hard to eat. The toppings were minimal and just thrown into the middle of the pie with no care. Next time I will drive into town for better pizza. read more
