I was happy to hear that the old Thai restaurant formerly occupying this space was now a pizza place, since it was in my neighborhood. So, on a Friday night I called the place to order a medium margarita pizza with pepperoni and mushrooms. They told me it would take 20 minutes. So I get there just in time to pickup my pizza... so I thought (more on that later). There were a few middle aged guys sitting outside, my guess is they were the owners or friends. As I walk in the guy making the pizza stares at me with a stern look, so I think to myself, "he's not going to help me". Then another guys comes out from the back and I tell him that I'm here to pickup my pizza, explaining the exact order. He looks confused for a few seconds then talks to the guy making the pizzas in a language other than English. Then he tells me that a DoorDash driver ended up with my pizza. I said to him "whaaaat!?" So I tell him fine, I'll wait for them to make me a new pizza. After 20 minutes of waiting (mostly staring at San Mateo Drive) my new pizza was ready. As for the pizza review. Quality, texture, and flavor were quite good; better than a majority of pizza places in the area if you like super thin crust. However, the $2 of mushrooms was not worth it. Seemed like there were only a few mushrooms sliced thin. Would I order again? Yeah, even with the hiccup of my pizza being mysteriously in the hands of the DoorDash driver, it was a tasty pie. But I'll save my money and skip the barely there mushrooms.

My first meal for 2025! No regrets! I have been wanting to try this Pizza place for months now and finally decided to make it my first meal this year. I ordered the Four Cheese Symphony. Every bite is just amazing.

An absolute hidden gem. I stumbled across this joint from word of mouth, the Turkish community has their secret "pizza" place. They have their own version of carbs and cheese with protein! I wouldn't suggest ordering your pizza here if you're expecting american fast food chain pizza, order the pide's and lahmacun! They're like a more light and sophisticated version of pizza. They are very quick and they fire cook everything you can see them make it yourself. The service is outstanding they're very hospitable and fast with orders. The character of this place is easy to miss as it's in a. tight corner but there's seating inside and outside (with warmers). My absolute favorite is the Kavurmali pide (so hard to pronounce) but it's like a slow cooked brisket, topped with cheese and egg inside an airy soft crust with a crunch. They offer lemon and picked veggies upon request!

Fantastic pizza, good price, and friendly service! This is definitely our new neighborhood pizza spot. The shop itself is cute little spot, so it's better for pick up or a quick slice. Also I love that all the meat is halal!

This spot is an absolute gem. We arrived and knew it was going to be authentic by the amazing smell of the lahmacun (flat bread) style dough cooking in the oven. Of course with the perfect topping of minced fresh meat that cooks to perfection along with the vegetables and seasonings that made it absolutely perfect, we were absolutely blown away. The complementary tomatoes, parsley, raw onions, and squeeze of lemon is the best way to eat it for those who have had lahmacun. But if not; definitely enjoy it the way I've shared my photo. Kind server and really nice addition to the neighborhood. Hot tea and a homemade desert made the entire experience just right. Will definitely go again, and recommend for all.

We ordered the Lahmacun for a Super Bowl party and it was a huge hit! The food was delicious, fresh and extremely flavorful. The service is first class! Extremely friendly, welcoming and loves to share the culture with the customer. It's a super cute place, small, but cozy.

The place always looks busy as a few old guys sitting outside on picnic bench smoking with door open and smoke wafting in. Gross. I ordered a small pepperoni with Kalamata olives. When I went to pick it up, there were a scent few pieces of pepperoni and no olives. The guy at the register offered to remake but when he told the pizza maker dude behind the counter, he picked up a handful of regular black olives to throw on. Not the same as kalamata olives actually baked on the pizza. They didn't seem to realize their olives weren't Kalamata. I took the pizza without olives, then when I got home realized there was no sauce on it either. Argh. Very bland. What a waste of $$ for what others are describing as great pizza. Never again for me.
