Growing up in Watsonville, Pizza Mia was the quintessential spot for a quick, satisfying slice, a concept that feels rare these days. Returning after more than a decade, I was eager to see if it lived up to my memories, and it absolutely did. The pizza remains consistently good, the crust is thin but not too thin, with a soft, fluffy interior and a satisfying crisp. The sauce is the real standout, it's light, slightly sweet, and perfectly balanced, complementing every bite. It is simple, unpretentious, and exactly what you hope for from a neighborhood pizzeria. Service is fast, and the pricing is fair. I had three slices of pepperoni pizza and three water bottles for $13.81. What struck me most is how Pizza Mia manages to deliver both nostalgia and quality, proving that some local favorites are timeless. The only downside is that I noticed the seating area is now closed, which is a bummer as that was a place to sit, eat, and enjoy your pizza and maybe play an arcade game. For anyone in Watsonville craving a classic slice done right, this is a must visit! read more

Pizzamia - Pepperoni pizza slice - Pizza Near Me - Watsonville, California

Cheesy, gooey and doughy- that's the essence of this pizza. It's nostalgic since it has been here from my high school days. Plus you get a small pizza with the purchase of a large. Ingredients are very fresh! Family owned and friendly interaction with all the customers. No where to really sit but that's ok- it's still good when you get home. read more

THIS PIZZA SAVED MY MARRIAGE!!!! I don't usually leave reviews, but Pizza Mia in Watsonville deserves full credit for saving my marriage. Last Friday, my spouse and I were deep in one of those "we are absolutely not speaking ever again" arguments. You know, the kind where someone brings up something from 2017 and suddenly it's a documentary series. Anyway, in a moment of desperation (and hunger), I ordered a large pizza from Pizza Mia. When it arrived, we both tried to stay mad... but then we opened the box. The smell alone forced a temporary ceasefire. One slice turned into two, then three, and before we knew it, we were arguing again--but this time about who got the last slice. Somewhere between the pepperoni and the cheese pull, we started laughing. By the time the box was empty, so was the argument. So yeah--marriage counseling is great and all, but have you tried Pizza Mia? 10/10 would emotionally reconcile again. read more

It's not the same. The pizza is still good but doesn't taste how it used to. The service is kinda sucky as well. They don't have the back to sit down and eat anymore which is kinda dumb. I only come here because my kids like it when we are in town. read more

My first time at Pizza Mia was great, I forgot to check the hours when I showed up and it was 30 minutes before closing. Even though it was the end of the day they staff was very energized and kind. They made me two pizzas in 15 minutes and they were delicious. My new favorite pizza spot for sure! read more

This has always been my number 1 spot since I was a child. These past 2 days that I've gone for a slice of pizza it was very cold. Today I went for another slice and once again cold. I kindly asked if there were any hot slices and they replied with "this is what we have." Very disappointed! No one likes a cold pizza. Do better pizza Mia!!! read more

After deciding to try another pizza place in Watsonville (sorry Cassidy's, we will be back next time!), my wife and I decided to try Pizzamia, another local, family owned pizza joint. We came on a Wednesday around noon, and there was only a few families eating. It is a counter order, and they bring your pizza to you at your table. We ordered a medium pepperoni/mushroom pizza, which ran us about $16, which is quite comparable to other pizza places. They also do pepperoni by the slice (around $3), which they have available every day. Our pizza came to us in about ten minutes (great, fast service), and it looked good. A few notes about the pizza: 1. The crust and bread is a little thick, so if you're not into that, then I would choose somewhere else. 2. They put the cheese on top of the other toppings, so the toppings and cheese easily slide off or come off in large clumps, which can get annoying. 3. The pizza was not that flavorful; the sauce could have used a bit more seasoning, and the pepperoni was not that flavorful or spicy at all. The cheese was good and plentiful, though. Overall, the pizza was decent, but nowhere near the best I have had, but also not the worst. I would probably stick with Cassidy's (another family owned pizza place in Watsonville) or somewhere else. However, it was decently priced and great service. Just a quick note: they do not have fountain drinks, but have a couple large refrigerators with dozens of drinks to choose from, including soda, tea, water, and vitamin water. read more

Pizzamia - Pizza Near Me - Watsonville, California

I'm originally from New Jersey, the land of pizza. I get sad from time to time because the pizza in Santa Cruz county just doesn't compare. After being here for 20 years I have finally found my pizza spot in Pizzamia. The pizza was hot, crunchy, nice and cheesey, and soooooo tasty! My mood went up just after a few bites. The folks inside were super friendly too. I highly recommend. I'll be back, frequently. read more

Make sure you call ahead of time to order. We walked in to get a slice of pizza. They only do slices of Pepperoni, but you can't bet $2 for s slice of pizza. It is very very greasy so make sure you get a lot of napkins. I asked for a lot but he only gave me a few. I had more in my vehicle and literally used about 20 for the grease. They told me it would be 4 minutes for the slices, which ended up actually 16 minutes. They are a very busy place, so order instead of walking in. The pizza was very very tasty. I will definitely come back when I'm in the area. read more

Best Pizza in Watsonville. I remember going to this place back when I was in middle school heading back home from E.A hall and grabbing a slice. Great service as well. read more

This is the place to go if you are looking for really good tasting pizza. They stick to the basics for toppings and combinations. The dough and crust are really good. Service is quick, prices are reasonable. The pizzas are greasy, but what do you expect when you are eating a slice of fresh from the oven goodness topped with cheese, pepperoni, sausage or whatever else you choose to put on your pizza. There are a few tables of you want to eat there but seems to be mostly take out. read more

You need to check your take out pizza before you leave. I made the mistake of not checking. Got home, my pizza was missing topping. Very disappointing. Called them, went in to voice mail. Left a message explaining what happen with a call back number. Never received a call back. :( read more

Don't let the simplicity of this place fool you it IS one of a kind exquisite pizza. Family owned, their pepperoni pizza that sells by the slice has kept many others to return daily for another slice of heaven. I've been eating at this place during my childhood and after leaving the area to the inland empire, I've come back to this place to review any changes to the quality and to my surprise, it's still the same as I remember. Pizza Quality: The dough is always soft and hot. It's cooked all the way so you'll NEVER have undercooked dough. They use quality local ingredients that are baked into the dough and give it such a rich flavor. Their pizza will hardly have grease. This pizza definitely quality as it may taste the same when you take it home and reheat it in your microwave. Specials: If you order a 16" Large pizza, they give you a small 10" pizza free! read more

This is probably the worst pizza I have had since moving to Watsonville two years ago. We tried to get delivery, since Yelp shows they deliver, and one of their photos says "We Deliver," but, no, no they don't. I will credit them that the pizza was ready in 20 minutes, so there is that. The sauce, toppings and cheese were so skimpy, I could see about 50% of the crust, through the toppings. The cheese and pepper packets were smashed into the side of the box. Yuck. Alas, my search for getting a good quality, hot pizza delivered continues, but I am running out of options in town. read more

I've been coming to this place since I was a little girl and with all honesty this pizza still has its taste and appearance. Pizza is really delicious but sometimes can be overly greasy. The location is ok again hasn't changed much but it is clean and decent to sit down and eat your pizza. It is exceptionally great service and always have slices ready within 5 min. read more
