This is the real deal. The best thin crust you will find in San Diego. Period.
They are constantly baking their pies fresh, and you can see em throw the dough from the street.
The price is decent, and I think they deliver to the immediate neighboring areas.
The only reason why this isn't getting 5 stars is their location. Good luck finding a parking spot. Both times I parked like 4 blocks away and had to hoof it in. There's a lot next to it, but the signs seem to insist it's not for bronx. Also it's always pretty crowded. Not a bad thing at all... but the crowds, plus the lack of parking make it a little TOO New York-ish for me.
Yum... nosh.
Pizza was great, such the perfect complement to beer and good friends.
My only issue is that sometimes they deliver to certain areas, and sometimes they don't. It's near the 8/sports arena area. We got them to do it a few times, but usually they tell us to come pick it up.
That would be FINE IF I HADN'T TAPPED THE KEGERATOR ALREADY
It was during 2009's San Diego Comic Con that Jackie D. and John D. excitedly took me to Bronx Pizza! They didn't say much, but were clearly in awe of this by-the-slice pizza joint, I HAD to see what could make them so ga-ga!
I stepped inside for quick second just to point and grunt like a caveman towards the couple of slices I wanted to try.
The small place is no nonsense and no pretense. There's a short counter for a register, a tall glass display case for the various pizzas. That's it. As you wait in line, eyeballing the slices in front of you, there is a busy busy kitchen and a big oven, an ingredients station for all to see and flour everywhere. Behind and to the side of you is a smattering of well-worn tables and chairs.
While Jackie and John were inside ordering six different slices for us, I ran next door to the liquor store to pick up a six of beer to pair with our flavorful and highly anticipated dinner. We drove back to our smoky little motel room in Chula Vista, the delicious aroma of pizza teasingly wafting through the car.
When we finally crashed onto our beds, cold beers in hand, and dug in? "AY, YO! YO, AY! That's a good slice!"
The big crispy-but-foldable slices (our six slices probably make a whole pie) were delicioso! Most or all of our slices were two topping, keeping it simple; a meat or a veggie and Whitestone. What's Whitestone? Check it : Mozzarella, ricotta, garlic and parmesan. [via http://bronxpizza.com/...]
Savory slices of pizza and bottles of Karl Strauss Red Trolley Ale later, we were drunk and full, an empty pizza box on the nightstand, a bed pushed off its springbox, and a mountain of ice melting on the floor.
Don't ask.
Every time we geek out at ComicCon, you know we're grabbing slices at Bronx! 2010, here we come!

Whitestone. It's like crack!
Delicious garlicky and cheesy pizza crack!
And I'm hooked like a fiend!
I think most of the people in San Diego are nice, so when I called for a pizza the first time I was more than put-off by the pompous ass taking my order. I am from New York and really they are not this rude. It is just pizza dude. OVERRATED.
Best takeout pizza joint in SD.
oh my god. that's all I have to say. oh my god.
I really like coming to The Bronx. I always get a slice of pesto and a slice of whitestone with spinach with a drink for $6. I bring out of town friends here alot. A good friend of mine from NY mentioned that this is the closest thing to NY pizza that he has ever had since leaving NY. Guess thats a good thing.
Only complaint is the parking...never can find a spot and sometimes there is never a table. But the place is pretty popular....what can ya expect?
Spinach and White Stone is the bomb here! Great photos of boxers or boxing-related stuff hanging all over the walls. Great deal: 2 slices and a soda for $6 all you can drink... FYI cash only. Parking is on the street .. And that can get pretty tough at times. But even if you park far and have to walk a few blocks, it's totally worth it.... Besides, a little exercise won't hurt, especially since I believe they use the most fattening cheese ever! Lol...
My favorite thing about bronx pizza has to be the crispy crust.
it's true that a slice of pizza is only $2.50 but it was pretty ridiculous to drive around for half an hour to find parking.
Too bad they don't have a "drive thru" that would have been awesome... instead of the walk up window. (THINK about it guys!)
I enjoy Bronx pizza a lot.
Out of 5 stars, Bronx pizza to me is a 3 because although the pizza is good... in opinion it's not AMAZING... it's just "A-OK" ... which is the 3 star definition.
Fast, cheap, tasty = 4 stars
- 1 stars because there is never parking nearby and I believe it's cash only
Every other place, I've eaten pizza in San Diego should just closed down and admit that Bronx pizza has them beat. (And yes, I'm looking at you Sanfilippo's).
This places lives up to it's name. If you've ever lived on the east coast and are having pizza withdrawal go here.
Yes, the parking situation is horrible. Yes, you must bring cash. Yes, if you eat at the restaurant you are basically eating in a tent covered parking lot. And yet, I say to you, it is worth it. This is good pizza at an amazing price.
I just want to say this place was Da' Bomb, good stuff. The pizza is tasty and light. They have many different selections and it is a gold mine of a place. The order area is small where you choose you Pizza and then you head back to find yourself a seat and get your re-fillable drinks. The decor is really not much except for a painting of the Bronx on one wall.
:-)
It was just me and the kids this weekend... they complain about my cooking.... so I ordered a Bronx Pizza to be DELIVERED!
We waited out front for the delivery scooter. The kids saw him and screamed with delight! He accepts credit cards... I SCREAMED like a girl!
Unfortunately they say i'm a block out of range? WTF? I tip well! Very well. They better increase their range!
:-)
I LURRRRRV this pizza.. And it seems so does everyone else!

Nothing special honestly. The crust is super thin, but the topping quality is mediocre. The meatball is a weird sliced pepperoni-esque meat and the peppers/onions seem to be pre-cooked. It's like they microwaved or boiled them before putting them on the pizza and lack the aroma they usually get after being baked in a pizza oven. the crust is so thin that it ends up getting soggy because of the sauce/cheese, and there isn't even that much sauce! The cost is definitely not worth what you get.
To top it off, the service is slow as heck. I was there for a pickup and after waiting for some time, instead of being helped the guy at the counter just talked to various people before another guy ended up helping me instead. Real nice.
We are from the East Coast and finding good pizza outside of the NY/NJ area is difficult. Bronx Pizza is even better than some East Coast pizza places.
The pizza is super, but please stay open a bit later, you would make the bar crowd so pleased. One can not live in Mexican alone...
Finally tried it & I was dissapointed.
I choose sausage and mushroom but it really didn't have much of either one neither did my partners order. Slices were too thin I thought and lacked taste.
I personally don't see the big hoopla over it (was looking forward to it).
This, My friends, was not that great. If your lookin' for good THIN CRUST pizza I suggest you head on over to "Luigi's" instead.
Had Bronx Special the other day with a friend. Having lived in New England and missing the pizza I had to give it a shot. I've gone by it lot's of times but never stopped because I've heard other pizza places say that they have NY Style or better right here in SoCal only to be disappointed.
After reading some reviews on yelp I figured, WTF. I wasn't disappointed. It was almost like being at "Sally's" in New Haven. The next best thing to being there.
Highly recommend!!
so as i have mentioned before, I am new in town. I was told this is THE pizza to be had.
Eh, I've had better.
Ordered for pick up from Bronx pizza this last weekend & I don't think I will be coming back. I think this place is OVERATED! I remember the pizza being better. We ordered the whitestone (mozzarella, ricotta, garlic & parmesan) with sausage. The toppings are sparse...it definitely could' ve used more ricotta! Also too pricey for what you get!
The pizza we made for dinner last night w/ scallops, goat cheese, spinach, & tomato was a lot better than the pizza we had here!
This might be the best pizza in San Diego. As you'd expect from the name, thin-crust NY-style is what you'll find here, the kind of big slices you'll probably fold in half while you eat. What else is there to say? It'd damn good pizza.
This place gets very busy and fills up fast, so be prepared to wait for seating or do carry-out / delivery.
My boyfriend has only TWO numbers stored in his phone as "speed dial" contacts...
Me, and Bronx Pizza.
That pretty much says it all.
The other night, I went to pick up a couple pies, and someone from the BX was taking a poll - "what… Read more »
I can't begin to tell you how thrilled I am that Bronx Pizza now delivers. This pizza place is as simple as they come; great thin-sliced NY style pizza, and that's all. They also now take Credit Card orders when ordering on-line, woo hoo. The only reason I'm not giving Bronx 5 stars is that I tried their Pesto Pizza last night and did not love it the way I do their Pepperoni Pizza which is 5 stars all the way!
If you're looking for simple, classic, thin crust pizza, Bronx is the place to go!
Went too Bronx Pizza for lunch on the quest to find San Diegos best pizza. I have to say it was good, and they have a decent variety.
Price $6 for 2 slices and drink very reasonable. If you've never tried thin crust pizza you should check it out.
Not a bad tasting pizza.
Good size for just one slice.
hot & fresh!
Misc: the place is small. One of the guys was making pizza boxes and stacking them outside the restaurant.
I love this place. I've been coming here for the last 6 years and the service and pizza has remained consistently good. The staff is friendly yet edgy. If, by chance, a mistake is made with your order. You might get a slice or two on the house.
The pizza crust is thin and the pizza sauce is tangy. I have since moved but still make the 30 minute drive to pick up a pie.
Some negatives, but not nothing that can't be avoided with proper planning. Cash only joint and parking is extremely limited.
This pizza is so hyped, we've decided to give it another chance. But again, I did not find this pizza very flavorful and the crust was soggy.... and it's just too greasy overall. I think it depends on your taste and preference...I'm gonna have to go back to Luigi's.
I heard a lot about this place and had to check it out for myself.
It's not hard make a good slice of pizza, which I believe they did. I think the hype just kind of killed it for me (not to mention the long wait).
I would recommend this place to people who live in the area. It's good pizza, just not amazing.
I love garlic and love that I could add extra powder at will.
I will eat here again, just not go out of my way.
I love NY style pizza.
I love thin pizza cut into big slices. So yeah, the pizza was great. We got a Pepperoni, Sausage and Mushroom pie. I enjoyed it very much, especially topped with Parm, Red Pepper, Oregano and Garlic Salt! Super delicious... So why did I give them 3 stars?
Order pies, not slices. While we were standing at the counter, I noticed flies all over the pies in the window... Im not super nit-picky, if I was eating a slice and a fly just happened to land on it for a split second, whatever, Id eat the rest of the slice no problem... But having flies walking all over a pie that was sitting in the window for slice orders.... No thank you!
I LOVE BRONX PIZZA! It is so flipping delish and I want to have its babies, but if I had babies with their pizza I would probably eat my babies so maybe its not the best idea. The bronx is simple but nowhere near bland. I love pizza and this place hasnt let me down. so WHOOHOO HIGH FIVE for pizza that makes me go "uhhhh uhhh da nanana!"
What is not to like about Bronx. The best Pizza I have had in San Diego. Relatively cheap and servings are plentiful. When your there I would suggest going with a group. One person orders while everybody else splits up to get a table because it gets crowded and busy. It is well worth it though. Only bad thing I would have to say is the whole parking situation. Good luck finding parking close by. When going I would recommend the Pork-o. Simply the best.
Bronx delivers to your door!!!
The man and I were hungover, hungry and had no desire to see the light of day. So he suggested we order Bronx. In about 45 minutes, we had pizza.
I don't know if it is me that has changed or the pizza, but I had 3 slices and the layer of grease in my stomach got to me. It was a bit much. I have eaten here plenty of times before, so I don't what happened.
But delivery of this pizza vs. Papa John's or Domino's is the best and I cannot wait until we have more hangovers!
I'm from Queens originally and I got to tell you; Bronx Pizza is noth'n special. I think for most of us New Yorker's, thin crust pizzarias are popular because they are nostalgic. These are the neighborhood joints we grew up with. They were/are cheap and hit the spot when you don't have a lot of money. So Californians, believe me, the very best "REAL" New York Pizza has 3" crust and 8 ounces of heart stopping cheese per slice.
This place is overrated, the guys who run the joint put on a show (Fake arguments and all), I have no idea why people think this place is anything special, it's crap. I had a slice when visiting San Diego, when the slice came I said, "What the hell is this?". Go back to NYC and you'll see how run of the mill this place is. I asked the guy running the place to put some more cheese on my slice and he reluctantly did so.
Pizza is bland, ingredients suck, pizza is paper thin just like in the poor neighborhoods of NYC. Move on people. Thin crust is thin because it's cheaper to make so you can sell it cheaper but in more volume.
Thumbs down.
Great pizza pie, the place is a great spot to stop by and chill and have a slice of some really good pizza. The staff there are super cool and friendly. Definitely recommend it.
Bronx pizza has what I would imagine New York style pizza is like. The crust is super thin but the pizza has great flavor! I loved that fact that they had a bunch of different pizza choices already pre-made so you can try a few different kinds. We got our pizza to go and it was amazing in the short period of time we were there the number of people that came through. That speaks volumes to me right there! Bronx is the best thin crust pizza I have had in a long time and with their prices you really can't go wrong!!!
Bronx Pizza will not get my business again. I phone ordered a White Stone pizza with pepperoni's.
They told me it would take 20 mins for pick up. I showed up and paid $17. I noticed when I picked up the box it was not very hot at all.
When I got home I realized why. The pizza was an old one that someone had not picked up. They gave me a cold pizza. The cheese was hard and not even warm. It tasted like a nothing. I am very dissappointed in the product you people put out. I will make sure I tell all my friends how you play the game...never will order from you again!!!
Been going here for over 10 years (even while living in LA, I even drove down to pick up a couple of pies). The white stones with tomatoes slices is simply the best. The other pies are solid but the white stones can not be beat. IMHO it is even better then John's on Bleeker St.
Recently, we have tasted a slight difference in the crust. Crust is everything in pizza. I hope it is not being changed as perfection should not be messed with.
O.M.G. i LOVE this place. it is freaking delicious! the bf found this place on yelp after a day at comic con. we wanted something to eat since we were tired after a drive-all-night thing we did from home just to be at comic con in the morning. then we spent the day at comic con and needed food. i suggested pizza and we were on our way. the bf said there were about 600 reviews for this place and well, i think they were all right. there was a line when we got there but it's well worth the wait. we both got 2 pieces and a drink for 6 bucks. awesome. i don't know what i got but i have to say that i LOVE the white pizza here. we ended up coming back here a couple days later with our friend and he was instantly in love too. the liquor store next door provided with great beer to go with the pizza...(we ended up drunk in our hotel room with beer and pizza).
i wish there was a bronx pizza in san jose!
I gotta admit, I'm not a big fan of thin crust pizza - never have been, never will be. Give me Chicago-style any day, please. When it comes right down to it, good pizza is good pizza regardless of the style so I thought I'd finally give Bronx (http://www.yelp.com/bi...) a spin to see how they fare.
Despite the many pizza combos to choose from (http://www.yelp.com/bi...), I went with just simple pepperoni only.

I was pleasantly surprised (and pleased) because Bronx has some really good pizza. I do, however, hate the way the crust ends up being hard as wood as opposed to how soft and edible thick crust can be. I like eating the crust but not at the risk of needing an oral surgeon afterwards.
As I mentioned early, good pizza is good pizza regardless of the style and Bronx is GOOD pizza.
I always feel like i am gonna get punched from the guy taking my order, but the more i think about it, i guess the pizza here would still be worth it. As good as the slices are, if you order a whole pie, it's unbelievable. The Whitestone Spinach and Tomato Garlic are the way to go. If you live in San Diego and you haven't been here, you are bumming. Stop going to Oggi's, and get your Bronx on.
