I've been coming here forever since they 1st opened.. The pizza is so good and very addicting. There are about 4 small tables inside can seat only 10 people total. There is a restroom that's very clean this last trip there was no toliet seat covers. No changing table. I ordered a xlarge half Salami half Salami mushroom and olives and a 2 liter Hawaiian punch all for $36. Later we wanted dessert chocolate or cheesecake were the options and my only complaint is the desserts are FROZEN! like hard! I asked them to microwave it they don't have a microwave so my kids my friends and I were eating a brick. Lol. We had to take it home to thaw which defeats the purpose it's dinner and dessert and the cake is $3.99 each!. They have paper plates and plastic utensils napkins parmesan and peppers. There are no high chairs so my 2 year old was constantly getting off and running through the very narrow path where the tables and entrance is at. Over all service was excellent! Dessert could of been better if not frozen but I will eat there again!

I normally don’t write reviews. But this is not the first time this happened to me with pizza express. I’ve been living in the Bernal Heights district for over 40 years. The pizza express used to be my favorite pizza place. I ordered an extra large mushroom pizza. It didn’t have much mushrooms as a matter fact only half of my pizza I have mushrooms and they forgot to slice my pizza. I called to let them know and all they told me is to bring back the pizza and they’ll reimburse me. That’s not what I call customer service. I would’ve took it back, but I was too tired from work. So I suggest you check your pizza before you pick it up.

Ahh, my review of Pizza Express... Ever since my first visit this has been one of my Go-To spots for a couple of slices in The City. The staff is great and always there to meet my needs. Thank you guys, for a consistently good lunch/dinner break. I apologize for putting my Lefty's review in the wrong spot. I'll leave it here for comic relief. I'll leave it to everyone reading to imagine for themselves... what is Lefty's and where are they? Errantly Placed Lefty's Review: Google is asking me to review places I got directions to, I got directions to Lefty's but I decided not to go because the prices quoted on the phone we're about 25% higher than I think they should have been.

This pizza is the BEST pizza I've ever had. Lots of flavor and perfectly cooked. The customer service with each and every employee was outstanding in San Francisco California. The cost to eat here is very reasonable and affordable. Pizza Express should be recognized for who they are and all that they do for the community. Bringing a smile and good food to the community. I also wanted to make sure that lady manager is given kudos and recognition for her hard work THERE PIZZA IS AWESOME AND TASTES SO GOOD AND COOKED PERFECT. Thank you, Monica Thomas

WOW!!!! No joke, this is the best pizza I’ve had. Got the chicken, artichoke, sun dried tomato, onion pizza…. Chicken was juicy, all the toppings were in good proportion (my size portion). The crust was thick and crispy, perfect, not greasy. It was HELLA GOOD! Called it in and picked it up in 25-30mins, hot and crispy. Service was Great! For Real best Pizza I’ve ever had. I wish I took a picture before crushing it. This is my new pizza spot now.

I had NO idea there was a thin crust option! Took your advice, came back, and got myself the thin crust. I'm happy to report that this definitely works for me. Solid pizza, even better because so convenient. I should also add, the people who work there are always nice. I will be back for sure. -------------------- I really wish their pizza was better since it's in such a convenient location. Crust is too thick and bread-y for my tastes and the toppings I've tried were dry and not great.

  • Amber Milks

As I sit on my couch eating leftovers I figured I should write a review. Because that is the best thing about Pizza Express, their pizza makes the best leftovers, so always get a large. This place was recommended to me by an SF native as one of the best pizza places in Bernal Heights and was later told by roommate who is a foodie that this is her go to pizza restaurant as well. So I've had this place in mind to try for awhile. Thanks Pizza Express

  • Matt Broschinsky

A Bernal Heights staple. My wife and I got pizza here all the time when we lived in SF. That was over 15 yrs ago. Took a family trip this weekend and ordered a big pizza for the family. DID NOT DISAPPOINT!!! Just like we remembered! So cheesy and delicious. I might have cried a little, it was so tasty! Heaven in a cardboard box! Thanks Pizza Express for all the memories and for sticking to your tried and true recipes. Don’t ever change!

  • Vero-Michael Hernandez

The pizza was delicious! We will definitely be back next time we go back to visit San Francisco. Thank you Pizza Express, for Excellent customer service!!!

Im a fan of pizza express! the cortland special and bernal special are my favorites. Delivery is not too bad they called one time to say they are running a bit late which was understandable since they called. All my other deliveries were on time or sooner. you have to ask for toppings and utensils ahead of time since its SF and we are all about conserving =). Prices are on spot as well, comparable to other pizza places.

  • Joey Montoya

Definitely one of my favorite places to order pizza when I am home. From the dough, sauce, and cheese the Pizza is definitely a pizza leaving you wanting more. I usually like to order a whole pizza and save some for the next day. Recommend the pepperoni pizza - one of my favorite classics...Definitely give it a try and support family owned and operated.

  • Jessie Fadayel

Ordered some pizza here for Dad on father's day (we wanted to try something new) and let me say it was amazing! They got our order correct and everyone enjoyed the pizza as well as the fast delivery. If you're looking for an authentic pizza made fresh then I would highly recommend this place! We'll be back again to order from you guys!

  • Wendy Dion

I have had pizza from just about every pizza place in Northern California and theirs is by far the best! Excellent customer service, great prices and did I mention the best pizza I’ve ever had! Basic cheese and their Cortland’s Special…all the stars!!

This was my 1st time ordering from this location and it will not be my last. Most pizza places when you order something with a lot of toppings they skimp on the toppings. Not Pizza express! I ordered a Medium Express Special and it was outstanding! I'm a big eater and 3 slices and I done! Thank you Pizza Express!

  • Hadeel Pacifica

Let's make this one short and sweet: the pies here rock. Had the standard with pepperoni (the only meat they offer) and it really was one of the best pizzas I've had in NYC. A little on the pricey side, but if you're gonna pay 20-22 for a pie elsewhere, come here and splurge. You'll be glad you did.

  • Austin Leonard

Hidden gem on Cortland, because their pizza is really, really good! By the slice is my favorite, but they also have a good Greek salad, rotisserie chickens and wings that are all excellent and a great value for the money. Definitely my go-to for something quick and tasty on Cortland!

  • Ares Lau (Darkestnight)

I ordered an all meat pizza with olivers. It tastes very good, very balanced favor and crispy crust. I rank it as one of the best in SF.

Great pizza for delivery or sit down. Best in the area for the price and service in my opinion. They do single slices which are pretty big, but get at least two if you're pretty hungry. I order from here and walk in all the time. Happy to have this place on Cortland!

  • Brandy Howard

Pizza Express.....Each time we come to San Fran we enjoy walking this area of town. Its just about the best quick and easy pizza in San Francisco. Servings are big and the pizza is excellent- also, the baked chicken and salad is the best deal in town btw.

  • Pablo Mccord

Got my order wrong, missed the pepperoni, however when i called the guy was very pleasant and handled it well, offering to send another pizza right away. In the mean time they said i can eat the pizza i have, its pretty dank, even without the pepp.

  • Michael Hernandez

These guys are awesome and super friendly! Pizza was great and customer service was second to none. This is the best pizza I have tasted in San Francisco. Tried this place after church at Abounding Grace and would definitely recommend . …

I was put on pizza express by my neighbor and glad she did. I love the thin crust with all the toppings. the delivery drivers are all giants fans, and very friendly. It is by far the BEST PIZZA on the hill!

  • Yaniv K

Worst delivery ever!! "Pizza Express"?? The pizza arrived after almost 3 hours! No option to cancel! Arrived as cold as ice. Better to stay hungry then ordering from them.
