Crazy deals! Very affordable and too good!
Joshua D.

Absolutely the best pizza in town for all of the right reasons this place is a must try! The service we can start there top notch fast, friendly and helpful. Chevy is just the kind of person you want to support genuine and cares about his business and it shows plus works very hard! The place is super clean and helpful also has the liquor store next door that has everything if they don't have it ask him they will bring it in for you. They carry Happy Dad which makes me Happy! Now back to the pizza I got the Gyro pizza which was just amazing plenty of toppings so I could only eat a couple of slices and my wife loved it and she could only eat one slice. The ingredients are quality and the presentation is something you would see in a fine dining restaurant. The kicker is the place is extremely affordable too inexpensive of you ask me. If you live within 45 mins of this place you should come get a couple of items and make sure to stop in next door to grab a drink too!

Great addition to the neighborhood, fast and friendly service. The pizza was amazing, loaded with chicken, bacon, and a delicious drizzle of ranch. They've got a nice variety and a cool mural on the wall!

Sweet teriyaki wings

I got the Supreme Pizza and the sweet teriyaki wings and it tasted incredible. Very fast service and my husband 100% approved. We will def order again and so happy we have a go-to pizza place in the area now.

Cheese bread

This food is AMAZING!! Pizza like no other!! Super friendly, clean environment and very fast! All their stuff is fresh and they don't skimp with anything. My favorite is the cheese bread! This picture doesn't even describe how delicious it is. You have got to give it all a try for yourself!

I ordered the slice of GOAT Pie (pepperoni pizza with goat cheese dried tomato and honey). Omg, it's really good! Even their iced tea was surprisingly good... it has a hint of coconut! The service was fast. We paid the meter parking for 37 minutes, we got in and out within 30 minutes for dining in! We'll surely come back!!!

They offer great combo deals. You can do a whole pie or grab combos like one slice with a soda, two slices with a soda, or two slices with a beer. Solid value. For under $20, I got two slices of pizza and a craft beer. Their craft beer selection is awesome and definitely a highlight. I ordered two slices: *Surf Rider: Their most popular and classic pizza. The New York-style crust was phenomenal, but for my taste there were way too many chunks of garlic. *Basil Pesto & Ricotta: Again, great New York-style crust. I wish they added pepperoni to this one. The ricotta flavor was pretty subtle so while it was a nice pizza, it didn't really stand out. The space itself is great with indoor seating plus two large outdoor seating areas, complete with TVs for sporting events. Dogs are allowed, which is a nice bonus. They even give out dog treats at the counter. There's only street parking, but I still found a spot just a few minutes away. Overall, this is a cute spot with amazing New York-style crust, which is my favorite. The employees were very friendly, and it took less than five minutes to order and have the slices ready. They even brought them out to me. While the crust was excellent, the overall flavor of the pizzas didn't quite hit for me. Still a solid place, especially if you're big on crust and craft beer.

Ordered Lunch Special #5, chose burger and tomato salad. Burger is a BURGER, meaty, cheesy, garlic aioli all over the place, delicious. The tomato salad is even better than burger, pieces of tomato, cucumber, red and green bell pepper all coated with balsamic vinegarette was cool, fresh, and delicious. Ordered cheese slice to go, solid Detroit slice, tangy red sauce, thick fluffy dough, crispy caramelized cheesy corners. Large selection of 30 beers. Plenty of specials with happy hours, hourly specials, and more. Definitely will return to explore menu

The food was stellar as always. The service was great. What was not great was the fries came out and about 5 minutes later the wings came out (my order) and 10 minutes after that the pizza came out (my boyfriends order). He had to watch me eat (or I let me food get cold) and then I had to watch him eat. Always better to have all the food come out at the same time. Just not a great experience with the food timing but I stil love this place

Pierre's is a fantastic find in the heart of La Mesa Village! The brilliant chef, Zion, is not only…read moreimpressive in stature, but his recipes for pizza pies are so unique and take your senses on an unexpected thrill ride. First of all, I've not really been a huge deep dish fan. And these are hefty pies! But once you let your teeth sink into a slice, you are delighted by the crunch and crispness of the edges and yet the delicate lightness of the dough in the middle. How does he do that? It's not heavy. But it's thick on flavor. The classic is the pepperoni, with or without jalapeños (for those who like some heat). Those lil' meat discs are fired to perfection w/ a perfect toasty crunch. That's how I like it. So good. The marinara is just right for me. It's not overflowing and trying to cover up anything. But the spices and combo are well balanced. Ok now, you gotta try a specialty pie. They are orderable on certain days depending on what sources are available that week. Or whatever is cooked up in the chef's mind! I think my fave is the Best Spud (seasoned potatoes, 3 cheeses, black garlic miso ranch, gojugaru and chives...) and w/ a bacon option! We have ordered delivery (DoorDash or Localby Toast) and we've ordered online and picked up at the window, and since Hoffers Cigar Beer & Wine Bar opened a couple weeks ago, we've ordered online and they deliver it right to our table next door! It's such a convenient set up for a relaxing evening. Pierre's hours are 5pm to whenever they sell out. And only Wednesday to Sunday. Pierre's is a family business and right now is working inside of Public Square Coffeehouse which is also their family business. So, if you want to go there, go to Public Square and you'll be home! You can enjoy your pizza on site at a sidewalk table or a cozy table inside. It's seriously, worth every penny. For more pics and inspiration, check out their IG https://www.instagram.com/pierrespizzaplace?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== ...omgosh, I totally forgot about the sauces for dipping!! Off the chain flavor experiences! Not that the pizza even needs more flavor. But these options bring it all to a "ho nubba lebbo!"

Please come back soon…read more La Mesa loves you. I love you, Your Grandma style pizzas don't remind me of my Grandma, but they make me think of warm happy times... like it was when I was a child. So maybe it does remind me of my Grandma. Point is... hurry up and open back up so I can have epic pizza in the hood. Much love
