NEW YORK PIZZA

I've had the pepperoni pizza by the slice, the chicken cheesy bread, and the lasagna. I was really excited for this place to open because its right next to the gym and laundromat. I did my best to give this new location the benefit of the doubt, but I must be honest. The pizza and lasagna are on par with what you'd get at Costco, at best. Costco's value is much better, and there is usually more cheese in each slice there as well. This "New York Pizza" would probably embarrass most people from New York. Its not the worst pizza I've ever had, but its nothing to tell your friends about. This is probably why I've never seen a line to order. There is usually only what appears to be the owner and his spouse in the building... and they aren't rude, but like their pizza, they aren't that interesti

Who doesn’t love a pizza spot that serves slices, gluten free pizza (medium only), sandwiches, salads etc? Wonderful service, clean, cashless pay. We’ve also done parties here.

Updated Review: We really want to like and support Papi's Pizza Roma. It's been around since I was a kid. But while things started off great, a number of disappointing experiences has caused us to look elsewhere. The biggest issues that come up consistently? The pizzas are now always undercooked, and the ingredients are extremely limited. Like if you order mushrooms, you get maybe 1-2 mushrooms, on a large or extra large. Frustrating. Original Review: Finding decent pizza in El Cerrito is always a challenge and I feel silly for not trying Pizza Roma sooner, because it's by far the most superior choice in the area. Will update the review if consistency falters, but so far this is our favorite choice for a good crust that won't be soggy.

They are new owners who have spruced up the inside and are very friendly, kind, and most importantly know how to make a great pizza.

Pizza is okay, but nothing to praise, especially for the $5 slice. Plenty of space inside and couple of old tvs to watch games, but that's about it. Upd: their pizza did actually grow on me during quarantine, margherita is really good.
