Luke BornheimerJune 2, 2013The pesto pizza was delicious and the large was enough for two of us with four leftover slices. If we didn't want leftovers, we'd go with the medium. Also, the salad special was unique and refreshing.
Geoffroy BablonJuly 3, 2013While waiting for your food, draw the Foursquare logo on the paper tablecloth. The house wine is delicious and affordable. The pizzas smell (and taste) terrific. You'll leave happy.
Staff PicksDecember 5, 2014This stalwart has been slinging creatively topped pies for decades now. Reserve its upstairs dining room for groups of 18 or more, and select a family style meal to suit your tastes and size. Read more
Jim JJune 14, 2017Always try the specials (especially pizzas and salads) with fresh ingredients from their farm. And the butterscotch pudding is classic.
Melon LOctober 25, 2018Severely underrated pizza joint. Garlicky and wonderful. Unpretentious, unfussy and without a wait. What more could you ask for?
The Wine Bar is around the corner from the restaurant entrance. It has nicer ambience, tasty wine flights, and you can still order from the Pauline's menu!
Grace YoonAugust 7, 2016Makes pretty hearty pizzas that pair well with in-house draft wine. Full carafe will satisfy a group of 4-5 people, guaranteed.
Anton ShusterOctober 11, 2015The presto pizza really is dope. Something about their dough. It's a special kind of crispy.
Tristan TranOctober 27, 2014We were two, we shared a medium sized pizza and a mac-n-cheese, it was excellent!
Steven BrewsterJune 9, 2013The food and service are superb. And, the pizza combos are inventive and delicious. Rainer cherries on pizza? Yes, it works here!
Some of the best pizza in the city. Get the daily specials, they're always super fresh and local. And try the house wine!
The original is still the best! Pauline's has been churning out quality pies with ingredients grown specifically for them for years now and they show no signs up letting up. Get one each of whatever Read more
Zachary Reiss-DavisSeptember 7, 2016Their pesto pizza is outstanding, and all of their house wines on tap are great.
Will AApril 7, 2013Always do the veggie pizza special, but do not ever under any circumstance try to photograph the chef or you will be rebuked in front of your friends
Sean GMay 20, 2011Best table in the house for couples: up front by the window, closest to front door - good views of Valencia street, a little bit private
Gabriel RooneyAugust 17, 2012Wine bar in back is cozy. Pretty darn tasty house wine too. Lots of organics and vegetarian.
You can't go wrong with whatever the night's specials are. Can't decide? Put the meat special on one half and the veggie on the other. Done.
cyn kDecember 29, 2012Trust the specials- meat, vegetarian, or both. And definitely the special salad!
Corinna PSeptember 22, 2011I always get their meat and/or veggie special and it's never done me wrong.
- Zachary Reiss-DavisSeptember 7, 2016They have a large-group / banquet room upstairs, if you're planning a party.
Get your pizza: half daily meat special, half daily veggie special. I have never been disappointed!
The special salad and veggies come from their garden!
Be sure to tip the cooks, they work very hard. Woo!
