Zachary's Chicago Pizza
(17 Nov 21:24)
I've heard so many great things about Zachary's I had to try it out. I was also taken there for my birthday! I thought the pizza was great, not incredible, but great. I mean, it has a lot to live up to. Ranked as one of the best pizza joints in the US and definitely hailed as one of the top 3 on the west coast. The crust is amazing! The toppings, cheese and sauce are great. I guess what I wasn't all that pleased with is that they put tons of sauce and tomatoes on the pie. It is overkill if you ask me.
I would recommend Zachary's to anyone, but I will have to give it 4 stars.
Escape From New York Pizza
(14 Nov 21:31)
Just got back from here. I like the location - right downtown in the Financial District of San Francisco. You can eat inside (which is pretty large) or outside. Great people watching if sitting outside. I like their pizza, but by no means think they deserve to have the words "New York" in their pizza restaurant name. Their pizza is average. There is nothing special about their sauce, crust or cheese. There are so many better places downtown SF.
Red Baron

I had the 4 cheese and topped it with hot sauce, sesame seeds, peanut oil and pepper. Great combo. The crust and cheese make this frozen pizza. Thick. crumbly crust (but not too crumbly). It's a good value.
California Pizza Kitchen

CPK frozen pizza is definitely one of the better frozen pizza's out there. This thin crust is great. Brittle, yet not to brittle. The BBQ chicken is their best, second only to the pepperoni and sausage. One won't fill you up, but is a great starter or if sliced up great apps at a party. They are on the more expensive side (when it comes to frozen pizza), but I think worth it.
Totino's
(02 Nov 01:13)
Totino's is cheap, but I liked it. I had the sausage, pepperoni mix and thought the crust was crispy, brittle and tastes good. The cheese and the sauce are decent, but overall it wasn't that bad, especially for the price: $3.50 (for the 10.7 oz.). I'm not full, but was a good starter. Takes only about 15 minutes to cook and can eat in slices or whole. This isn't my favorite, but I enjoyed it.
Beretta
(22 Oct 20:22)
Wow - what can I say about Beretta? Well, for starters a strange individual named Michael Bolton raved about this place - not only for the pizza, but the mixologists are top notch! This is some of the best pizza I've ever had in San Francisco. Thin crust and cooked to perfection. The toppings are all organic and wicked fresh. This is how San Francisco pizza should taste - full of flavor, yet different from east coast. And did I mention the drinks?!?!? Wow! Insane - I highly recommend this place to Anyone looking for a killer day in the Mission for drinks and pizza.
Giorgio's Pizzeria
(09 Oct 22:10)
This place rocks. Thin crust, with a Ton of topping choices. The sauce and cheese is perfect. My only complaint about this place was the beer selection. There could have been a lot more choices. You can easily walk out of Giorgio's full and buzzed for very little money.
Also great for large parties (like Canice and Dave's Birthday).
Cafe Vivoli
(19 Sep 22:16)
Decent. The crust was a little doughy and the sauce was weak. Big space and cheap though. I would pass on this place as there are way better places in this area.
Fat Slice
(15 Sep 01:29)
Not a fan at all. Too much dough, sauce stinks and this place just sucks! There is nothing good about this pizza. The only reason someone actually go here is if they are seriously high and have no other choice.

Good, crisp crust. It is great if your not that hungry. You need at least 3 to be somewhat fulfilled. Small pepperoni chunks...good, but not great.
