Reviews for GIOIA Pizzeria in San Francisco, CA
A top 3 pizza spot for me in SF. Our go to order is the sausage pizza with the avocado + arugula salad. The pizza is so... flavorful and not too greasy. The salad is just out of this world - I usually find the salads offered by a pizza joint to bepretty uninspiring but the salads here are actually GOOD and make me feel less guilty about eating pizza, because we wouldalways finish the salad before the pizza... :) Read more
Two slices of pizza for $9 before tip. They were ready in a decent amount of time. Felt like they were cooked a little bit too... long as the crust was somewhat burnt, black, and brittle. No inside or outside seating available. Read more
First time ordering from here and the pizza was great. I ate this pizza while watching the Warriors become NBA champs!!
We ordered Gioia from DoorDash twice and thoroughly enjoyed it both times. We got half funghi and half cheese but as you can see... from the pictures, it wasn?t equally split one of the times. The pizza is super delicious, the cheese is amazing and both timescame with extra cheese (Parmesan or Grand Pasano) and chili flakes! Definitely recommend for a pizza night ?? Read more
We ordered a pizza for the first time from Gioia Pizzeria for delivery and we were pleasantly surprised. It reminds me of New... York style pizza. I would definitely get pizza from this place again. Read more
A good spot for tasty crispy pizza but a long wait (about 45min) for online order and pick up. Service is good as well. There... are plenty of great shops nearby if you want to kill time. Parking can be a hassle on a busy day but not impossible. We ordereda 18" acciughe pizza which was quite large and filling. It was a tad bit too salty for my liking but that's expected due to theanchovies. It was worth the price and I'm hoping to return to try something else. Read more
This spot is legit for a slice of pizza. The crust is perfectly thin and nicely charred. The flavor of the cheese is amazing and... the pepperoni is great as well. However, my favorite was this broccolini slice. The ricotta was super flavorful and thebroccolini had a nice lemon zest flavor at the end which broke down the richness of the cheese. A different type of slice butwell worth it. I also enjoyed the NY style of the place, it?s super small, they take your order and 3 minutes later you getyour slices. A must visit if in Hates Valley for a slice. Read more
Gioia has consistently been one of the better places to get a slice or whole pizza in San Francisco for as long as I have been... aware of them circa the Fall of 2019. You are guaranteed a solid slice no matter what direction you take it in. They do thecheese slice right which means they are reliable for toppings both conventional and complex. You can trust this place todeliver. If they ever have an off day, it is still better than a lot of places in the City on their best. Gioia is in therunning of top tier slices in San Francisco. From the slice perspective you should absolutely try Gioia if you are consideringdoing so. There are a lot of places that are not Gioia that you may hear about and feel flippant about. Understood. Gioia isone to put on the list of for sure places to check out. If it's your vibe you may have a new favorite place to go. It's in adecent area to walk around where people and things tend to be more pleasant and there other great places to eat not only pizzabut several popular places to go. The crowds do not always realize they should be lining up for Gioia. Gioia deserves to muchbusiness the employees get overwhelmed. For the New York Style street slice type of pizza. Go here. For sure. Please note:there is very very limited seating. That is a huge drawback to this place, unfortunately. With ample seating, no one would beable to stop them. So consider that you should aim to usually just pick up a slice or pie and do as New Yorkers do and walkaround with your slice or stand right outside the door eating it in front of the establishment so they can watch how you reactto each bite. If you get a chance to sit, consider yourself lucky and sit down for a moment. Blessings. Read more
