Yearning for more? 1/2The pepperoni pizza slice was just okay; both the crust and toppings lacked flavor, which was disappointing given the bakery setting.Expenses 0/1:At $5.39 per slice, the price felt steep considering the quality of the pizza.Location 1/1:Located in a small parking lot with several spaces available. Staff was polite. Possibility of a Future Visit & Recommendation: 0/1Given the lackluster pizza and higher price, I'm not tempted to return.

Truly disappointed! I'm a big fan of their bread and sweet rolls but their pizza was flat and almost tasteless. I thought I'd give them a try because of the pictures on Yelp and how I felt about their other products. Honestly, you want good pizza? Go to the dozens of 4+ star offerings in the area. Leucadia Pizza, Primo, Paradise to name a few. Even Knock Out Pizza offers tastier for a lot less of your hard earned cash!

Pretty solid! A little pricy - the pizzas are 12" or so thin crust, so a large personal pizza or very light meal for two to share. Cost is roughly $17 per pizza give or take, depends which you order.6 choices right now - cheese, Margherita, pepperoni and olive, Florentino (white pizza with veggies), gochujang BBQ (sweetish Hawaiian), and Buffalo cauliflower.My favorite was the Florentine, try it out. Second favorite was the gochujang one - ended up being a little sweeter than I wanted. Pepperoni had Kalamata olives with it which I liked. Margherita was pretty straight forward.Would like to see some side dish options and dipping sauces (even just some ranch) available in the future.

once you get past the sticker shock, their pizzas are pretty good.nothing particularly special about the MARGHERITA (roasted tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, and basil) or the GOCHUJANG BBQ (Korean-style BBQ sauce, Beeler's ham, pineapple, red onion, mozzarella, and parmesan). both are solid artisan pizzas just not worth the expense or drive.surprisingly, given the overwhelmingly carnivorous appetites at my house, the PIZZA FLORENTINE (white pizza with roasted garlic, fresh spinach, sun dried tomatoes, shallots, mozzarella, and parmesan) was the unanimous favorite. nice balance of ingredients with strong flavors.not a huge fan of their crusts which are Neapolitan-style and kinda floppy. reheating leftovers in the air fryer helped.

Pizza is legit. The Florentine is wonderful with the garlic. I usually add my own marinara sauce and it's delightful. They also have really good soups, coffees and next door is their flagship home made bread shop.

Prager Brothers has done a fantastic job creating their artisan bread brand and I'm surprised it took them this long to jump into pizza, as the art of fermentation and baking are essential to both products.They are just getting off the ground, but you should definitely order Pizza before getting in line for bread as everything is cooked to order and it's all a small/medium sized pie, nothing by the slice. Prices range from $14 to $18.50 and as of this review (04/05) are open Tuesday-Friday 11-6pm with an ever expanding schedule. It's updated twice since they opened.They will soon be available for online order through I believe door dash? but the best is to call it in even though it's less than a 10 wait. (760-505-7958). Order first then get in line next door as they tend to run out as they open much wider hours.Overall they are probably using 00 flour and their oven gets hot enough on top, hence the charred bits, but the bottom doesn't leopard. There is that nice tang from a slight fermentation, probably cold. I'm not going to bore you with pizzaiolo level talk about marginal gains in processes and ingredient changes. They don't overcrowd or oversauce their pizzas, so nothing soggy, but also not crispy. Cheese is a classic profile, but what i want to talk about is the Gochujang BBQ. Yes it has pineapple, but it works in a much more complex way with the sauce giving depth that goes beyond a Hawaiian or CPK BBQ Chicken. When you have a bread game like theirs you don't question their flavor profiles because this has more of a right to pineapples than a Hawaiian. The Florentine is fantastically light which goes against your better thoughts of a white sauce, garlic, sundried tomatoes. The shallots (which are superior to red onions) and the spinach mellow out each bite. Service is great, it's wide open, clean, built for to go just like nextdoor. Same OS and email software, they just need to church it up a little inside. I can't wait to try their other pies as I also imagine they will expand their menu a bit.

I could eat here every day!!!! First time here today and I got the Margherita pizza and was delicious and had complex flavors. Can't wait to try other pies as I will definitely be coming back. They had a good looking bakery next door although wasn't able to get anything this time due to untimely phone call when I was in line. The prices are a little high but seems that everything is and I do have some left overs.

Work nearby and rarely go out to lunch due to budget. Had a chance to get out today and finally gave this place a try after eyeing it for a while. Wow - Pizza is so good. Crust was a little thinner than I liked but darn it was good. Sauce is on the sweet side which I like. Got the pepperoni and added sausage and mushrooms.For sure enough to feed 2 people for lunch, we had 2 slices leftover which my daughter took home with her for leftovers. I was expecting personal pizza size for some reason based on the pics. For the size you get and the uniqueness of the place I don't think the price is unreasonable. Pizza with 3 toppings, $22, really in-line with any pizza place that is not a national chain.Note outdoor seating only. At lunchtime the patio is sunny but the umbrella's provided shade. The bread shop next door owned by same people also have fancy artisan sandwiches that run about $8-9.Would easily go for pizza again.
