Off the Rails Pizza Hawthorne

Found this little gem in the heart of Hawthorne. Good food, super nice staff! We decided to try Off the Rails Pizza after coming back from Gainesville. The pizza was really good, but could’ve been cooked a little longer, the bottom crust was just a little under cooked. But the taste was amazing and they are not chintzy on the toppings! What they called a calzone was good but it’s not a calzone, calzones have ricotta cheese in them, these do not, so they are actually Stromboli’s. But with that, it had plenty of fillings and great flavor. The chicken wings we got with garlic parm sauce were literally finger licking good. Highly recommend them. Also tried the garlic knots, these were spot on, garlicky buttery goodness. I would also recommend to order ahead as they make everything to order and

This is a cute food truck with some limited outdoor seating. We've passed by it many times but never stopped until today. I'm so glad we did! They were so friendly and the food was delicious! We got a "Hawthorne Special" pizza, a Buffalo chicken calzone, and an Italian sub. They have lots of options if you want to build your own pizza/calzone/sub, but what really stood out was their amazing attitude. The cashier and the chef were both very friendly and accommodating. Absolutely recommend!

We ordered pizza from here while visiting the area. They definitely stay busy but it was worth the wait. Everything is hand made and fresh. It’s hard to find pizza that doesn’t come in some form of frozen or cookie cutter. I hope when we come back to visit they have a brick and mortar!

My partner and I have LOVED Off The Rails Pizza! And we are incredibly happy that the owner has been able to expand his delicious franchise!! However ever since he left the Hawthorne location the food there has not been the same. The pizza was mostly crust with not as much cheese and toppings as we had before. The flavor wasn’t the same, not as rich in flavor. And the garlic knots we bought didn’t even really have any garlic sauce on it. There were only 6 pieces covered in Italian seasoning and they were just as doughy as the pizza. The food was cold when we received it though I will say there was a train that slightly delayed our arrival which we take responsibility for but it did not seem long enough to warrant an actually cold box of pizza. We were so disappointed to see our “XL” pizza

Delicious! Awesome pizza. Super cute food truck! Best pricing! Lots of individual slice options, great lunch specials, and you can order whole pizzas as well. So excited to have found this place on a little road trip. We will most definitely be back!
