BBQ Chicken Delight
Vivian L.

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.

Chocolate chip cookie

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.

Combo minus bell peppers and pepperoni. Delicious!!

Service was excellent. That fried chicken man oh man! That pizza jeez louise! Haha. Real quality Italian sausage. No BS in their quality. My only regret is not knowing about this spot years ago. This is my spot worth the drive from Piedmont Ave for sure

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.

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.

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!

Sausage sandwich
Angela M.

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.

Fried Chicken Only Buckets(8-24 pieces & BBQ Chicken Delight
Aireen C.

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.

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.

First time here

My first time here and it was ok. Good customer service from the counter. But you gotta buy your drinks in the bar?! I would like to charge my food and drink at the same time and I can't! The pizza was ok. The fried chicken was good though.

The excess flour on the outer crust.

I…read morelove teriyaki in general and usually order it at Japanese restaurants, so I have a certain flavor and look I expect, especially when it comes to the chicken. I remembered they have a happy hour deal from 2 PM to 5 PM for $9.95, which is a really good value. When I went in, there were a lot of employees working, but it took a while for someone to acknowledge me even though I was the only customer. Some were wiping tables, others were in the kitchen, and a few looked at me, but no one said hello or even that someone would be right with me. That kind of acknowledgment would have gone a long way. I eventually realized they wanted customers to order through the touchscreen kiosks. Even so, it would have been nice if someone had said something instead of leaving me to figure it out on my own. I ordered a spicy teriyaki bowl. There is no note section on the screen, so after placing my order I asked if they could make my chicken extra crispy or charred. Based on Yelp photos, the chicken usually does not have much char, which I prefer for both flavor and appearance. When my food was ready, the woman who handed it to me was the only person who was genuinely nice. The napkins were out and she noticed and immediately offered to grab some for me, which I appreciated. When I got home and opened my bowl, the chicken still was not as charred as I had requested. There were only a few light grill marks. The biggest disappointment was the sauce. Even though they say it is made in house, it was missing something and lacked that umami depth. Honestly, it was one of the worst teriyaki sauces I have had. The rice and steamed vegetables were fine, but the chicken and sauce are the main focus of a teriyaki bowl, and that is where this really fell short. If you put a bowl from Teriyaki City Grill next to one from Teriyaki Madness, just by looks alone, Teriyaki Madness is much more appetizing. Because of the service and the food, I do not think I will be coming here again.

UNDERNEATH THE SAUCE…read more Rarely do I shop at Southland Mall however I was there two Wednesdays ago when I shopped at Champs Sports and Foot Locker. After shopping, for lunch I decided to eat at Adrienne's Wild Wings. I'm a sucker for wings, but I've never been to Adrienne's Wild Wings before. I asked the cashier what sauce she would recommend. She stated one of the sauces she liked was honey garlic. I ordered 10-piece combo that included ten wings, side order, and dessert. For the side order I choose tater tats while for the dessert I selected cheesecake. The 10-piece combo comes with two sauces. I choose honey butter, which is the dry rub, and honey garlic. I believe sauces should be used for flavoring not hiding. What do I mean by that? I've noticed sometimes sauces mask how dry the meat is. I decided to taste the honey butter first to see how moist the meat is inside. After taking a bite two things came to mind. First I couldn't taste the honey butter. Second the meat was moist. I tried the honey garlic. The cashier said the honey garlic was spicy. However I felt the honey garlic was spicy at all. Yet the honey garlic sauce was very flavorful. What did I like more the honey butter or honey garlic? I say this was toss up as I can taste more of the meat from the honey butter, yet I can enjoy the sauce of the honey garlic. The tater tots were disappointing as they were bland. The cheesecake was light. I don't shop at Southland Mall often. If I go back Southland Mall and become hungry for lunch I can see myself going back to Adrienne's Wild Wings.
