I ordered online for takeout later in the afternoon. My pizza was ready on time. The staff was friendly and nice enough. Their ingredients are definitely fresh, and they were evenly distributed without going overboard. I added basil to my pizza, and they didn't go crazy with it, since it's a very bold herb. The volume of toppings to sauce ratio was good. The crust was on the thicker, bready side, but it was fluffy. I definitely didn't hate it since the amount of sauce and toppings balanced it out. My pizza's bottom did stick to the box but only 2 out of the 8 slices did. I got pizza for takeout so I can't expect it to be perfect and for it to steam a little in the box makes sense. Overall, I think I found my local pizza place in PR. Why go anywhere else when I'm pleased and the ease of ordering is great?

A Pico Rivera native I know recommended this place to me. It was on my way home today and I wasn't making dinner so I had to pick something up for myself anyways. When I initially passed by it, I had missed it. Google maps said it was behind me, so I had to go back. It doesn't actually say pizza presto in the front , it only a sign that says "pizza" and it was really small. When I walked in, there was only two large booths and a counter to order take out. My friend suggested I add their barbecue drizzle on my order, so I did. Great suggestion! I had got a pepperoni and cheese, but man did it elevate that flavor! They also had other interesting topping selections that I'd like to come back and try!

Vegan small pizza with mushroom and soy chorizo

Yummy vegan pizza from a non vegan. It was yummy and of course the cheese doesn't taste like regular cheese buuut it was delicious. I ordered soy chorizo and mushroom. They also give you free vegan cheese and red peppers, what chain still gives those out for free hmm? So happy pico Rivera has this spot, will definitely come back

Vegan Lasagna and garlic toast!

I was so lucky I ordered on their 6th anniversary weekend, they had Vegan Lasagna!! The best in LA! Wow, please keep up the amazing menu. Never disappoints!

It's a pretty small place without a lot of decorations. But the pizza more than makes up for it! It's a thicker style crust, with a good char, and just the right amount of sauce. Once we ordered, it took around 10 minutes for the medium pizza to come out. They also have a lot of vegan options!

Sweet & spicy pizza

I have visited the restaurant several times in the afternoon, and I must say the cook during that shift makes the best pizzas. The only downside is that one day I visited in the morning and the pizzas had few ingredients, which could be improved. Overall, very good flavor.

Happy national pizza day! We wanted to support a local business so I yelped and found a cute spot in the neighbor city of Pico Rivera. Pizza Presto is a family-owned pizza spot with a wide variety menu of pizza, pasta, wings, and sandwiches. They also offer a lot of options for our vegan friends. What I like most in addition to their yummy pizza, was the sit down option to enjoy the cute scenery and music in the shop. Workers or owners were really friendly and the pizza was one of the best I'd say. We got the large half pepperoni and half supreme that can prolly feed 4 people. With 2 sodas and tip came our total of $37. They have a special for Super Bowl Sunday... so check them out on Instagram or here on yelp!

Ask the Community - The Original Pizza Presto

Is cheese not a basic topping ? If you order online you have to pick a topping and they are charging more for "cheese only". A vegan cheese i'm showing more expensive than a vegan one topping.

For the vegan pizza or any other pizza Is it gluten free?

No gluten free options yet.

Can you pay with a card over the phone for delivery?

Hi, yes we can take card payments over phone.

Can you make a heart shaped pizza for Valentine's Day?

Yes, of course. We have been making heart shape pizza since the start of February, They are only done in Large size Pizzas.

Do I have to call to get delivery? I tried to order online and it only has the pick up in store option

Uber Eats also delivers

What's the difference between the vegan mojos and non-vegan mojos ? Looks like the vegan option cost more?

They are both the same price. Unless they’re The Vegan Loaded Mojos which are a different price since we use vegan mozzarella cheese and soy chorizo.

Are there GF options?

Not yet, working on it.

Since there is vegan pizza is the cheese vegan as well?

Yes, the cheese is vegan, I've been meaning to ask the brand because it's really good.

This time, I tried the shrimp and birria tacos. It's the first time I had the shrimp, and I was surprised that it was cut into little bits and pieces. It threw me off, and I prefer it to just come as it is. It would be easier to eat. The taco shells were crispy and more on the hard than soft side. The birria was pretty good, and I tried a little bit of the al pastor meat, but the part I sampled was too tough for my liking. The green salsa was great, but the red one was too spicy for me. I was full after 2-3 tacos, but eventually managed to finish 4. They're quite meaty and full, so it doesn't feel like those tiny tacos that are more like a snack. It's like mid-sized, and has plenty of toppings on it. I think the quesadilla is still one of the best things I've had from Tacos y Que and would recommend it to anyone who hasn't tried it yet.

Which is ok because everything else was so flavorful The vegan orange chicken had a good flavor but there was an acrid bitter background taste - maybe the oil needs to be changed? The vegan bbq pork was really flavorful too But the standout dish that I really really loved was the vegan Mongolian beef. It was really spicy and so flavorful If I ever make it back I'm probably gonna just order that with chow mein

Every time I come I leave feeling STUFFED. The amount you get for the price you pay is honestly so worth it. The quality of the food is also amazing!

We tried to sit off to the side but was advised to sit in the middle where the AC was. I felt how hot the window was by the sides so I do appreciate them asking us to sit elsewhere! I decided to switch up what I normally get and tried something different. I got their lemongrass chicken rice which came with a side soup! omg. The amount of food I got was just too much.

Hey, as long as the food is right, I'm not going to get mad at how the order was taken. The food didn't take long at all. I ordered curry and we were given a plate of veggies to add to our soups. I'm not a big fan of Vietnamese food but I absolutely loved the food here. The soups came in large bowls so it's something that's definitely shareable. I tried a bit of my friend's food and they were all so good. Especially the fish! It's probably the best fish I've ever had. At the end, we were given mung bean soup for dessert. It's not my favorite thing but it was tasty. I will be coming back for the fish!

Review regarding PIZZA PLACE COLD PIZZA…read more I am writing to express my disappointment regarding an uncomfortable and inappropriate experience my friend and I had during our first visit to Pizza Place Cold Pizza on 10/22/26 around 7:30 pm. We came in to order a pizza but the instructions on how to place our order were not clearly explained to us. As first-time customers, we were simply trying to understand the ordering process. When my friend pointed toward a pizza in front of him as an example of what he wanted, he was not reaching toward the pizza or hovering over the employee. Instead of politely explaining any rules or correcting the misunderstanding verbally, the employee proceeded to touch my friend's arm, place his hand on my friend's chest, and "boop" him on the nose while telling him not to put his hands near the pizza. This behavior was completely unexpected, unnecessary, and inappropriate. My friend was not touching the food, and there was no reason for the employee to make unwanted physical contact with him. The individual appeared to be approximately 5'11" to 6 feet tall, had a large build, and had a beard. I did not obtain his name, so I cannot confirm his exact position at the establishment, but he may have been the owner or a manager. We were both shocked and confused by the interaction. As customers visiting for the first time, we expected clear communication, basic courtesy, and respectful treatment. If there was a rule regarding pointing or reaching near the pizzas, the employee could have simply explained it to us without touching my friend's body or face. Although the individual later gave us a discount, that did not change the fact that the interaction had already made us deeply uncomfortable. A discount does not address the underlying issue of inappropriate physical contact and the disregard for personal boundaries. We left feeling confused and disappointed by an experience that should have been a simple and pleasant transaction. No customer should have to feel uncomfortable or have their personal boundaries crossed when ordering food.
