As always Porky's pizza delivers the best pizza. The hand tossed crust is worth the wait. It is always a friendly atmosphere. The price is competitive with the other pizza places. read more

Chicken garlic supreme - great flavor, chicken soft and tender. Five alarm buffalo chicken - taste good but chicken bit harder and stringy, not sure if due to marinade perhaps. read more

My oh my, was this place busy! I know San Leandro has its spots, but I did not know Porky's Pizza Palace had it like this. In terms of customer service, I'd say there's some room for improvement--being welcomed and checked up on after ordering would've made the experience better. Nevertheless, the pizza itself was amazing. The garlic white sauce was fabulous, layered perfectly with the cheese and combined with the veggies to make an incredible pie. I couldn't even finish it while sitting there because the portions are very generous--especially for the XL pizza. Honestly, if I had ordered this at home through delivery, it would've been gone before a commercial break even finished. I also tried their fried chicken since it's in high demand, but in my opinion, it's okay to skip. Instead, I'd recommend heading across the street to Clancy's Ice Cream for a satisfying finish to the day. Their prices are great (tax included), the portions are generous, and although the line is long, it's absolutely worth the wait--especially after downing three (maybe four... who's counting?) slices of Porky's pizza on a Friday night. Overall, the pizza is great--highly recommend. Pair it with ice cream across the street, and you've got yourself a fantastic day. I will definitely be recreating this experience again. read more

I came here with a group of 15 people on a weeknight and they reserved a long table for us. You order first, then they'll give you a buzzer. The buzzer wasn't working so they called out names too. I got the 10" mini - BBQ Chicken Delight (they don't have one slices here). It was yummy! Obviously, I couldn't finish it all myself so they gave us mini Togo pizza boxes which were super cute. The pizzas here are meant to be shared cause they are huge! There's a small parking lot but this day I came, they were full so I parked on the sidewalk. Not a bad spot if you're craving some pizza. read more

Porky's Pizza Palace - BBQ Chicken Delight - Pizza Near Me - San Leandro, California

Been coming here for 40 years. Pizza sandwich is still my absolute favorite and their homemade ranch is amazing. It is frustrating that some employees charge for ranch $1.19 each tiny cup and others don't charge at all. So it's worth it to try to ask for ranch first to see if you get it for free. Potatoes need salt every time. Spaghetti never comes with enough sauce so make sure to ask for extra. These seem to be free, I've never been charged. Pizzas are great and so is the dessert cookie. Note that their salads are filled with beets and garbanzo beans, like loaded! Raviolis are yummy!!! Thank you, see you next time. read more

Porky's Pizza Palace - Combo minus bell peppers and pepperoni. Delicious!! - Pizza Near Me - San Leandro, California

I visited Porky's Pizza Palace in San Leandro for the first time during the AFC Championship game, and it turned out to be a great place for a big group. We had about 16 people, and the space handled it well. We ordered four large pizzas: * Two pepperoni * A Hawaiian with jalapeños * The Chicken Club Since I don't eat pork, I stuck mostly with the Chicken Club, which was really good--fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Overall, the pizzas were tasty and well made. For appetizers, we ordered: * Fried mushrooms * Mozzarella sticks * Jalapeño poppers * Wings Everything came out fresh and hot. The appetizers are a little on the pricey side, but the quality was good and the portions worked well for sharing. We also had sodas and water for the table. The atmosphere is one of the highlights. Porky's has that classic, old-school community feel. There are plenty of TVs for watching games, a few arcade machines, and walls filled with Little League and youth sports photos going back decades. From what I saw, the place has been around since 1964, and you can really feel that neighborhood history. The staff was friendly, organized, and handled the crowd well, especially with a big game day turnout. This is a great spot if you're planning a party, group gathering, or game watch. They also have a good beer selection (we didn't try it this time, but it's available). The only thing I regret is not trying their Rustic Margherita Pizza--that's definitely on my list for next time. Overall: Two thumbs up If you're in the San Leandro area and want a fun, relaxed place for pizza, sports, and good company, Porky's is worth checking out. read more

Great old school pizza place. They make pizza the old fashioned way. I've never had a bad experience here read more

I have lived in this area for over 15 years and I FINALLY had Porky's. I understand now. The quality is great! It isn't oily and doesn't make you feel terrible even after you ate the extra slice you shouldn't have. Service is quick and staff are pleasant. We ate outside to enjoy the air. I'd come back and try other pizzas! While it is pricey, the quality of it shows and it's well worth it. read more

Was craving pizza and some friends had recommended Porky's Pizza Palace. They had hyped it up so I was quite excited to try them out. We ordered for delivery and received all our items. The pizza had a nice thick crust, nicely flavored sauce however we asked for light cheese and it was caked with a layer of cheese. Some people love extra cheese but we prefer light cheese on our pizza. If you're a cheese lover then you'll def like this pizza. We also ordered some potato wedges and was pleasantly surprised to see they were large wedges. The wedges lacked seasoning but a little salt and pepper made it much more tastier. Surprisingly the real star of our dinner was their chicken bucket! The chicken was crispy on the outside yet moist on the inside. It had great flavoring inside and out. Would I come back for the pizza? Probably not since there's other spots I'd prefer to get pizza from. But I'd definitely come back for the chicken! read more

Raised in San Leandro and have heard hype about Porky's my entire life. Finally went on Saturday a couple of weeks ago and it... was just ok. The staff were all friendly people. The pizzas came out pretty fast. But the pizzas were *very* inconsistent in quality despite the only difference being size. I ordered a mini pepperoni, while my brother ordered a large pepperoni. Our pizzas came out looking totally different. Mine was very thin crust, very oily, with slightly overdone crust, while my brother's had perfect, fluffy crust, was thicker, and very cheesy. Not overly oily, either. Mine looked overdone and deflated by comparison. Not sure what happened here, and maybe I just should've sent mine back. In retrospect, I wish I did because my brother's pizza was delicious and what I was craving from a pizza that night, whereas mine was just ok but left me really disappointed. Definitely not the strongest first impression. My husband got the sausage sandwich and deep fried zucchini. Deep fried zucchini isn't something I'd ever order but I tried his and thought they were actually nicely done. Crispy exterior, tender zucchini inside. But while his sandwich was generous in size and pretty tasty, the bread looked scorched on the ends, as though they just barely got it out of the oven before it burned entirely. The chocolate chip dessert pizza was great, very gooey and melty. I appreciate the somewhat divey feel of Porky's. It reminds me of San Leandro growing up, a place I deeply miss because the San Leandro of today is simply not the same. But I also think Porky's could do just a *bit* more to spruce the place up and make it look a little less tired inside. Overall, I was disappointed with my first Porky's experience because of how sad my pizza was compared to my brother's, but since his was delicious and exactly what I was hoping for, I'd be willing to give Porky's one more chance to see if I'll get a better pizza next time. And if anything, it'd just be nice to get another nostalgia bomb by having another meal here. read more

Everyone in San Leandro swears this pizza is the best in the world. I live about 8 blocks from it and have gave it a 3rd chance. The worst pizza I have had. I am not a promoter but try Shakers in Fremont or even Bronco Billy's up by Cal State in Hayward. You will know what a pizza is about. Good luck with the business, but here is my good bye. 3 times a charm read more

Porky's Pizza is the last honest pizza in my opinion, service wait times is very reasonable. Inside they have both amble seating plus a dedicated bar for those who to have an adult beverage with their meals. I also love the fried chicken. But I mainly drive 15 minutes from my house for the pizza pies. Let me tell you something about a Porky's Pizza inside you trunk on the way home. You can smell the fresh vegetables, meat toppings and signature sauce. They have by far the freshest pizza within a 30 mile radius. Two days after Thanksgiving I ordered a pizza. read more

I'm loyal to Porkys cuz it brings back many fun memories with my daughters soccer & basketball teams celebrating here. Pizza and fried chicken are always good.! BUT, this time the fried chicken wasn't as crispy and savory as it has been in the past years. Of course I will try again and update! Service is always friendly and definitely efficient. We did take out this time because it was just crazy busy!! read more

A simple family dinner night with my family after a long day at work. Their fried chicken is juicy on the inside and has a nice crispy crust on the outside. We ordered 16" BBQ chicken pizza and my kids love it--sweet and tangy lots of BBQ chicken. Great customer service, we first ordered our food, and after we ordered our drinks at the bar separate bill, kid-friendly they have a small arcade on the corner. Big screen TVs to watch sports, plenty of tables very spacious. read more

Porky's Pizza Palace - Fried Chicken Only Buckets(8-24 pieces & BBQ Chicken Delight - Pizza Near Me - San Leandro, California

I honestly believe that I paid too much for the quality of food I received. I paid around $56 for a large pizza and wings. The pizza was not good starting with the crust being mediocre. The slices were cut inconsistently, and I believe it was not truly a "large." Next were the wings. They had a weird taste to them, and there was very little sauce on them. I wouldn't do Porky's again, thought I'd give it a try, and I regret doing so. read more

In the Oakland area a was looking for a local pizza place. The front desk at the hotel recommended Porky's as a good local hangout. Plus the name is the best! Thoughts came back about the movie. lol. So I had to try it. I wasn't disappointed. I got the mini meat lovers and a beverage. Pricey at $24 but it is California where even taking a breath of fresh air costs a deposit. The pizza was the size of a medium in a normal place so plenty to eat and a lot of ingredients. I would have given a 5 but the cost held me back. Would come back if I'm in the area again. read more

I usually order the same pizza, I love the crust. I recommend Porky's to others and my family loves it. Today was different. The crust was so tough. There was a lot of extra flour covering the outer crust. The dough was obviously over worked and tough as cardboard. I'm not giving up on Porky's because this is must have been a bad day. Looking forward to getting a good pizza next time. Thanks. read more

The inside space is a little divey. Marinara sauce is served cold for the mozzarella sticks. You order food and drinks separately.

My kiddo liked the games. I won't be going back read more

If I could give this place 0 stars, I would. Yelp im so disappointed in you. Y'all be straight cappin'. This place is trash.

Pizza pictures expectations vs reality for reference. F'ing gross. read more

Five star food but not customer service! If dining here just know there is an elderly woman bartender that definitely hates her job as well as people of color. I hate to say something like this but I go here too often and spend too much money to be disrespected !! And can somebody answer my question on why there was a child sitting on his mom's lap at the bar and she was clearly in intoxicated. Also beware: people will take your food off of the counter and when ask the lady at the register "was it made" she says no... without even asking the people who prepare the food. Anywho, I have said to say next time I will just do a pick up order . read more

My last experience with Porky's was not great. I decided to give them a try again and I am happy to say they did not disappoint. I am hooked on their fried chicken. I ordered well done normal and it was cooked perfectly. I used their app and gave the time for pick up. My order was ready when I arrived and I was in and out in less than 5 minutes. I don't know if they made any changes, but it was good to see their fried chicken was just like I remembered it. read more

Solid pizza spot. Key is to stick to the pizzas, the fried chicken is nothing special and pretty mediocre. Got a half and half giant size (16") Porky's Combo The Works and Chef Special for $35. Both flavors were excellent. Toppings were fresh and plentiful. Classic crust was great as well. There's a full bar with about 20 rotating craft beers and lots of TVs inside. Great place to watch sports. Lots of indoor and outdoor seating. Very spacious inside with some arcade games as well. It's an order and seat yourself type of place. They have a small parking lot read more

This place normally rocks! Good pizza, tasty fried chicken and solid pasta options. So usually it would get 4 starts. Unfortunately on this visit, the fried chicken was over-fried. The chicken beneath the burnt skin and breading was still flavorful. The Spaghetti was yummy and the garlic bread is a nice treat. We did take out, but even on the quick visit, the place has a charming and nostalgic vibe. read more

When you hear "Porky's" how can you not think of the 80s movies about horny teenagers looking for a thrill? Well, chuckles aside, my wife and I went on a Thurs night around 6 pm. We drove around the parking lot, which was full. At 6 on Thurs? These people can't all be inside. Yup, they were. The place was packed. Lots of families after soccer games, adult meet-ups, and families having a night out. A neighborhood joint. TV all around playing sports. Being our first time, we tried the pizza (Porky's the works), the fried chicken and the ravioli. For me, the ravioli was the star. The fried chicken was really moist. The pizza crust was kind of underwhelming and greasy. Overall, the food was good, but not great. The workers are all nice and the prices are reasonable. read more

One of the best local pizza finds in San Leandro! Just recently moved here and tried out the pizza for the first time. My boyfriend LOVEESSS pizza so it was important to us to find a good local spot and Porky's was such a great gem! Highlights: +Porky's Combo The Works: This was sooooo good! We love a good combo and this one hit every flavor we look for in a combo: meaty, packed with veggies on a chewy crust +Grilled Chicken Club: I love a good chicken pizza. The mushrooms added a wonderful umaminess that meshed well with the creamy garlic sauce. The chicken was very moist and seasoned well. +Buffalo Grilled Chicken: I didn't try this one because buffalo flavors can be a hit or miss for me. Based on my boyfriend and friends review, they all really enjoyed this one! It had a good kick and tang that complemented chicken and garlic cream sauce well! We also did try the All Meat Extravaganza. This was good, but it felt like maybe...dare I say...too much meat? It was verrry meaty. It was good to try, but I would not likely get this again :| But if you love meat, definitely try it out! I recommend eating this fresh as it doesn't reheat as well. read more
