Pizza Deck

This is our must stop whenever visit Yosemite Valley. One if the best vegetarian pizza I had. we got cheese and mother curry and both were so good. The only downside is wait time. it takes about 40-50 mins.

While at Yosemite stopped at Curry Village to grab something to eat. Didn't expect to get pizza but it was the only thing that seemed to be open and it was convenient. We went inside The Deck to order, the guy taking orders was really nice. They have the menu posted as you enter. It's a small space so it can get packed on a busy day. It was a weekday there was people but not a whole lot. We ordered a med (8slice) pepperoni pizza. They have self serve drink station, condiments, paper plates and utensils on the side. The gentleman said it's about a 15min wait. He gave us a buzzer and said to pick up our pizza at the window outside. About 10-15 mins later the buzzer went off and our order was fresh, hot and ready. The guy who gave us our order was also kind and asked if wanted it in a bag and bagged it for us. Honestly didn't think this pizza was going to be any good but was I wrong! It was Delicious!!!! Crust was crunchy and not too thick. The marinara sauce was so good and the pizza had a nice garlic flavor! One of the best pepperoni pizza I've had. A bit pricey but would definitely come back and recommend next time we'll try one of their specialties.

Located at Curry Village, Pizza Deck is a surprisingly good pizza place considering it's inside Yosemite. With a stunning granite slope backdrop, Pizza Deck offers tasty pizza, garlic cheese bread, beer, and drinks.Pizza is by the slice or small (4 slices), medium (8 slices), and large (12 slices). Beware that this place is very popular and while the order line can be long, the wait to make the pizza can be upwards of 30 minutes.

Oh man I'm not sure if it's the altitude or exercising but this pizza is seriously so good and worth waiting in the VERY long line it gets at times. I almost went back a second time a different day. Try to go non peak times to avoid a long line and picture below of two good options.

We ordered a large El Capitan pizza and the garlic bread. Honestly, it was quite good for a place inside the national park. Be warned that the line can be quite long though. We waited in line for 40 minutes before ordering and then waited an additional 20 minutes before we got our food. There are plenty of seating outside on the deck. We do wish there were more inside seating, however, given that it was freezing cold outside late in the afternoon when we went.

Based on past experience, we didn't have much hope for finding decent food inside a national park, but yet we had some of the best pizza. We got the pepperoni (cheesy and saucy with a delicious, but atypical pepperoni) and the Mother Curry (flavorful and spicy). The salad was typical pizza joint fare, which is to say basic. Waits can be long (1.5 hours), so be prepared, plan ahead and don't show up ravenously hungry. But it's worth the wait.

The meat lovers pizza here is amazing. It is stacked with pepperoni, sausage, bacon, and ham, making it super hearty. The cheese and sauce are perfectly balanced. This is a pizza you have to try.

Been here a few times and the pizza is honestly amazing - considering this is in the heart of Yosemite. Prices are a bit steep, but I think it's worth the value. The line can get quite long like others mentioned, but it moves pretty quickly. If you're with a group, I'd try to snag a table as you order as it gets really packed at night. Recs (though everything was yummy): - Half dome: 10/10 - Garlic cheese bread: 9/10 Would come back next time for sure!

Definitely try to order here before a meal rush! I ordered when there was quite a short line and waited about 25 minutes for the pizzas to be ready. The line got longer fast after 6 pm though. And the outdoor tables can be taken quickly. I was very pleasantly surprised by the options they had at this pizza restaurant right smack dab in the middle of a National Park. They have your traditional cheese and pepperoni but the two of decided to get the medium mother curry and medium half dome. Pretty pricey but that's to be expected when it's inside a park that's in the middle of nowhere. The total came out to over $60. They have cups for water, a soda machine, utensils, red pepper and Parmesan cheese packets, etc. you can also buy ranch at the register but I didn't know that till later and didn't want to get in the long forming line just to get ranch. The pizzas were delicious! We ended up taking about 5 of the 16 slices back to our lodging. The mother curry definitely tasted like Thai curry and was a bit on the lighter side with all of the veg. The half dome was hearty, sweet, and savory and was both of our favorites of the two. I would definitely order from here again next time I'm in Yosemite!

I've been to the Pizza Deck in Curry Village many times over the past several years. This year, so far, I've tried three of their pizzas: the Half Dome, the Firefall, and the Mother Curry. Out of the three pizzas, the Half Dome was by far my favorite. It was topped with marinara, mozzarella, ricotta, pepperoni, salami, chili flakes, basil, chili oil, and honey. While it was nowhere as good as my favorite pizza place in Sacramento, it was still pretty good. My next favorite was the Firefall, which came with marinara, mozzarella, pepperoni, pickled jalapeños, ranch, and chili oil. Again, not my favorite pizza ever, but still pretty good. The Mother Curry Pizza, I'm sorry to report, was simultaneously the worst Curry pizza, the worst Thai Curry, and the worst Curry pizza I've ever had. It was awful. It tasted like someone had used an entire container of Mae Ploy Curry paste as the Pizza sauce, straight up. It was so salty. It was truly terrible. Considering these experiences, I would not order the Curry pizza again, but would order the others. This is still some of the best food you can find in Yosemite Valley. Note that the Pizza Deck no longer offers boxes, even for to go orders. The best you can get is a parchment paper lined brown bag.
