77 Reviews for Mission Pizza
One of Mission Pizza's Favorite Reviews
We walked in around 3pm and would have never thought we were in for such a great pizza and beer experience.
This is probably the most-reviewed (with the highest marks) place in Fremont so my two friends and I were anxious to try it.
It's not glamorous, but it's a pizza joint with lots of character and a really cool-looking bar with 32 beers on tap:
1. Red Seal Ale
2. Belhaven Scottish Ale
3. Murphy's Stout
4. Old Rasputin
5. Young's Luxury Double Chocolate Stout
6. Long Hammer IPA
7. Green Flash Imperial IPA
8. Kona Brewing Co. Fire Rock Pale Ale
9. Kona Brewing Co. Longboard Island Lager
10. Barleywine Style Ale
11. Trumer Pils
12. Bass Pale Ale
13. Pranqster Belgian Style Golden Ale
14. He'brew Origen
15. Kona Brew Co. Pipeline Porter
16. Sierra Nevada Bigfoot (9.6 %)
17. Purple Haze Abita
18. Widmer Hef
19. Black Diamond Belgian Blonde
20. Red Hook ESB
21. Woodchuck Pear Cider
22. He'brew Juwbilation 11
23. Hoegaarden Belgian White
24. West Coast IPA
25. Paulaner Amber Marzen
26. Mac Tarnahan's Scottish Amber
27. He'brew Lenny's RIPA
28. Great White
29. Birra Moretti
30. Grimbergen Abbey Beer
31. Downtown Brown
32. Sierra Nevada Pale Ale
I was able to either sample or drink the following:
*Purple Haze--DELICIOUS berry-flavored foggy beer
*Pear Cider--fresh, fruity, light
*Downtown Brown--a lot like Newcastle, a little smoother
*Grimbergen--sweet, darker beer
*Sierra Nevada Bigfoot--bitter, very strong
The bar is also really cool to sit at because of not only the 32 taps, but also because of all the magnets with sayings on them. It's not high-class, but it wouldn't be a great pizza joint otherwise.
We tried the 40 chicken pizza (white ranch sauce, chicken, bacon, cheddar, spinach) and Andromeda's Galaxy (garlic tomato sauce with Greek peppers, olives, sun-dried tomatoes, spicy sausage, red onions, spinach, cheese, sprinkle of feta, spiral of pesto sauce). They were both great, but Andromeda's was better since it had a spiciness to it that I really liked.
An interesting thing to note: neither had enough grease to soak the pans they were sitting on (which I liked), and the crusts were crispy on the bottom, doughy in the middle (not bad, but a little dry).
I'm excited to try the cheeseburger pizza and more of the 32 beers (and maybe even set up a UYE here in the future). Oh and here's some more info for you:
Live music on Fridays and Saturdays.
Happy Hour Deals *4-6pm*:
-Any 16 oz. glass of beer
-24 oz. Chelada (Bud + Clamato, w/salt and lime)
= $2.99 (plus tax)!
I can't wait to return!

It's your typical down and dirty local beer and pizza joint, walls lined with every type of beer bottle.
I recommend the artichoke-pesto-tomato combo. Even though the tomatoes were green and the pesto was way light, they put enough artichokes on my pizza to land them on the endangered species list. Which made up for everything. Thumbs up!

Mission pizza seems to be a popular pizza/beer joint but I wasn't too impressed with their pizza. We were there on Saturday late afternoon - not many customers there, but we were told 40 minutes wait for a small pizza. Whaaaaat? Their pizza crust didn't have much flavor to it and topping, cheese....overall taste of the pizza was just okay.
But I could see the true reason why this place is so popular....their BEER selections!!!! Darn! I've never seen that many kinds of beer on tap before. Beer bottles displayed all around the wall throughout the restaurant added a character to this place.

Looked at their menu online. Yum. Masala Pizza. Sounded tempting. Tempting enough to make the trek from San Jose. They also had live music playing on a Friday.
The place was packed! Lots of benches and tables, full of people enjoying music and eating food.
You order at a counter, take a token number, and then find a place to sit. Your food is delivered on your table.
The Pizza was just OK. Really OK. We tried the Masala and another Veggie Pizza (half and half). I felt the toppings were undercooked on both the sides. The crust was decent, but we felt like we were eating uncooked salad over cooked pizza base. The leftovers tasted better the next day, as we sprinkled some olive oil, and let it cook in the oven.
Their garlic bread was OK too, although it came with good dipping sauce.
You must be wondering why its 4 stars. Here's why:
The place was filled with people having fun
The music and live band was soo entertaining. Bunch of old guys, playing nice country music.
Decor was quite unique and antique
32 types of beer on tap, and the best part is, they recommend and let you sample beers based on your preference.
I would say that the pizza is not worth the trip, but the experience just might be.

Best pizza ,Best Beers.
You can have the standard pizzas which are great or try one of the many pizzas that you will only find there.
I been going to Mission Pizza for years now and with all the different pizzas and different beers you can never get bored.
The staff is great and Phil is a great host ( he's the one with the cowboy hat ).
On Friday and Saturday evenings there is live music, what more could you ask for.
If you are in Fremont area you should make a visit to Mission Pizza
You will never go to the boring pizza places again
I love Mission Pizza for their California style & different pizzas. #1 fav. Bacon Cheeseburger pizza. When im in the mood for pizza & burgers but cant decide i go here. Plus they got a crap load of beers on draft which i love. Still haven't tried them all yet. Great local spot & waaay better than dominos/lil ceasars/round table. Good for family/teens with a couple arcade games to keep my kids busy. Bar is too close to dining for my liking and a bit small. I also didnt like the paper plates and paper cups kinda tacky but works great for quick clean up. My 2nd favorite pizza place in Fremont/Newark/Union City.

This has been a family favorite for as long as I can remember. My brother even worked at the original location in high school and my friends and I would go here at lunch to get a slice of pizza and a soda for like, $1? Well, maybe that's exaggerating, but I know it was a good price.
It's not your typical boring pizza, and it's not authentic italian style pizza either, it's unique in it's own way. The crust is different because it's thick without being too dough-y and still has a nice crunch to it. They also have some creative speacialty pizzas that I love; the #40 chicken with cheddar, ranch, chicken, spinach, and bacon is fantastic, and the chicken cashew with feta is definitely worth trying. For people that like beer, they have a lot of it on tap. I don't drink beer, but a lot of people I know do, so it's a good place to go to please a lot of people.
With the shortage of restaurants in Fremont, try Mission Pizza. The owners are good people and the food is great.

I am thoroughly impressed with the beer selection of Mission Pizza. Five stars for that. The pizza, on the other hand was not my favorite. Not bad, but not my favorite.
To me what makes a pizza is the crust. I mean, that is what makes a pizza a pizza, right? Otherwise you would just be eating meat, cheese, and sauce. Some places don't understand that.
I won't be that critical of Mission Pizza, but it could be fine-tuned a little. I found it a little too dry. It seemed like they didn't put any oil in the crust. For thin crust, that's the way to go, but for thick, you have to add oil. It was crispy, which I like, but I didn't get very much of the al dente follow-through.
That being said, it was still a good experience. I'm just being picky. Besides, you give me five different kinds of IPA, and you can serve me cardboard with cheese on it.

Other than the owner's sense of humor, this is the perfect "I'm bored and want pizza" go to place in Fremont. I am critical about my pizza. I like a spicy sauce with a pizza crust not bready, but that can stand up when you hold it. I hate pizza you have to eat with a fork. They also have one of the best beer selections in the area. That tops of their creative pizza receipes nicely! The local music is fantastic!

Mission Pizza has been around forever and although I've lived in Fremont for nearly 30 years, I'd never been there.
We made an attempt once a few months ago, but when we arrived and were told a pizza would be 90 minutes away, at least, we left.
So we decided to try again - called ahead for our pizza this time. Nothing fancy, just pepperoni & mushroom.
I give the place five stars for ambience and beer selection. There's definitely a cool vibe and would be a great place to hang out for a few hours, drink some beers and listed to the music.
However, the pizza disappointed. The crust was fairly flat tasting, and there was no "rim" around the edge without topping - you know, the part that normally puffs up? It was kind of akin to cardboard. The pepperoni was not cooked well enough - just long enough to develop a good sheen of grease, but not long enough to become crispy and enjoyable.
I'm going against the flow here, but I've got to say I'll stick with Round Table for a "good honest pizza". Loved the atmosphere, wouldn't eat the pizza again. Too bad - I was hoping to like such a cool, locally owned spot.

Pretty average California style pizza. It was better reheated the next day since the toppings and crust weren't quite baked through. Good selection of beers though.

I don't care if Pizza hut sends you $5 medium cheese pizza coupons every Sunday or Premier Pizza will donate money to your high school because nothing beats Andromeda's Spiral Galaxy at Mission Pizza. This is hands down top three on my list of favorite pizzas and trust me, I know my pizza well. This is one killer pizza.. pesto, spinach, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, sausage, onions.. the works. It's green! Which means it is by default mother-approved and healthy.
It takes a while for the pizza to be made but hey, quality is quality. Plus they have awesome old arcade games that are fun. Cheesy bread is good, too. Woohoo! Local joints rock.

This place must be on a mission to bring back the heyday of the ranch or the throwback to the dive/bar...hence their name...
An extra bonus point for super sweet service with a smile. Love those double coupon weekends...it really helps when you order over the phone. We only had a double order of cheeseburger pizza. It was interesting looks like cheeseburger except with no ketchup, but plenty of dough, cheese, pickles, burger bits, mustard and onions...it tasted like Cheeseburger, but by no means a great substitute. I was promised cow patties, and I wanna chew on that instead of a beef pie...where's the justice (grr).??
The decor was a smrgsbord of old tap handles, family photos, beer logos and what not. Good wooden benches for big parties and a smallish area for live band play. I feel like stepping in a small time "Cheers" set..hehe...
It's nice but I know some other places that pie is most filling and tasty!

OMG, I know its a pizza place, but let me start of by saying 32 BEERS ON TAP ! ! ! Thats Right, 32 ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
I had the Pizza (Sober) and it is not as good as Giorgio's in SF or NY Pizza in Palo Alto... but its Still Good. Not overly greasy, service is fast.. and they have live music to accompany your pizza and beer ! ! !
If the Pizza was on par with Giorgio's in SF or NY Pizza in Palo Alto.. it would have been a 5/5.
But Dam, the beer selection is INSANE ! ! ! ! ! !
Still, A MUST GO !

I hosted a pizza and beer night at my house a while back and we ordered our pizzas from here. The two large pizzas we got--Mission Pesto and '40 Special Chicken--were enough to feed 4 guys and myself. We even had a few slices left over too! Although I only stepped foot inside Mission Pizza to pick up the food (which was promptly made within 30 minutes after ordering over the phone), I am giving the place 4 stars based on the taste of the pizza. I love eating pizza from non-chain restaurants, so it's a good thing we have one around here!

My future wife took me to the old Mission Pizza as our first date. We have been back several times since to get the '55 Bacon Cheeseburger pizza.
This pizza is the bomb. Instead of tomato sauce you get mustard sauce and hamburger with hamburger condiments. It sounds wacky, but take my word for it, it's damn good.
The rest of the pizzas are not as exciting for me, but they do attempt to break the traditional flavor combinations up a little bit. The standard crust is pretty thick if you're used to thinner crust pizzas, but it didn't bother me.
I have eaten at the Washington location only once after we'd determined the old one was gone. I prefer the atmosphere at the original, but this one definately beats Round Table!

Ordered -
andromeda's spiral galaxy
griffin's cordon bleu
OVERALL: They don't go cheap on the ingredients b/c they pile it on. This might sound weird, but it might actually be too much ingredients b/c the flavor gets lost easily since it gets salty. The crust is a bit hard; nothing special. Definately order ahead of time b/c it'll take 20-30 minutes for your pizza to be ready. We called in and our pizza was ready for us once we arrived. Great for kids seeing as there were several families with small children including a soccer team of youngsters. There are a few arcade games as well. It wasn't crowded around 12 on a Saturday so you don't need to worry about waiting to get seated for you hungry folks out there. The 3 of us shared two small pizzas and it was more than enough. We brought back an entire pizza.
This place will satisfy my pizza craving and i will be back, but i don't consider it the best pizza around.

Mission Pizza is unique.
That pretty much sums it up. This is a place where you a hamburger pizza and a masala pizza and the best part is, it works out and tastes good. You can also catch live bluegrass here; I think the owner is in some kind of a group.
One of my favorite pizzas here is the Andromeda, their sun-dried tomatoes are less salty here.
With all this weird stuff, pizza traditionalists will not be too thrilled with this place.
I would give this place five stars, but pizza and timely rarely, if ever, occurs here. "45 minute wait" is usually more like an hour.

Well, I had to give it a try. Bottom line for me: it's not very good pizza. There is better (and cheaper and faster) available.
I really have mixed feelings about the pizza at this place. I've had it several times now, and I'm always puzzled as to whether or not I like this place.
Pros: Excellent toppings, great flavor, large beer selection
Cons: Horrible crust, takes a long time to make
I give this place 3 stars just because I'm willing to go back. I'm not overly impressed with the pizza as a whole, and it does take a long time to make, but I will probably eat this pizza again eventually. If you want to eat the crust, be sure to have a drink handy to wash it down as it is super hard and dry.

pretty good california style pizza.
This is a fun pizza place with good beer on tap and live bluegrass music. It's a great place to sit outside in the summer, too, even though it is in a strip mall.
The pizza is good, but definitely big, thick and funky. You have to be hungry to come here. The big draw for me tends to be the great variety of beers on tap.
I always feel a little like I'm back in that lumberjack town in Oregon where I grew up when I walk in here. Still, I liked the empty beer bottles decor and lively hometown feel of the place. I also took a liking to the quirky bluegrass/country band that played there on Fri night (the saw player rocked in a ZZ Top kind of way).
They have a variety of untraditional pizza toppings, but we stayed safe that night and ordered Angel's Heavenly Hawaiian and Debra's Garden with pepperoni. The veggie/pepperoni pizza was so top heavy that it was risky proposition as you lifted it up closer to your mouth. Their pizza is good solid stuff - not the best I've ever had but tasty enough to fill any pizza craving. Next time, I'm getting more adventurous and maybe having Will's Wild Vegi (garlic sauce with fruits and nuts?) or the St. Paddy's Corned Beef & Cabbage. Go on double coupon days to make it worth your while! 3.5

If you're looking for Cali/Fusion-type pizzas, this is your place. I've had pies here with pesto, cranberries, potatoes, and more (not all on the same pie, mind you). They're very good in a non-traditional pizza kind of way.
The reason for the 3 stars is they do have a bit of a scam going. It doesn't take 45 minutes to make a pizza. I know this, I worked at a pizza place as a teenager. They want you to wait around and buy a pitcher or two at the bar. And normally, this wouldn't be a problem for me, but slow service in anything just rubs me the wrong way.
My suggestion--phone ahead, wait an hour, go pick your pizza up. And be sure to use a coupon, they're available online.

We just came here for some drinks and atmosphere after having a filling dinner, but as soon as we do... I look over at the pizzas on other people's tables, and I really want pizza. I don't care that I am completely over full. I want pizza.
But I restrained myself and settled in for a pitcher of beer with a group of friends. We lazily talked about fishing, while the live band played country music in the background. I don't love country, but here, live, I really didn't care. It was just, for lack of proper description "nice". They have a ton of beer to select from, and let's face it, I'm not all that pretentious and sometimes a gal just needs a beer and good company in a chill location with great smelling temptation inducing food. This was a great find, too bad they close early. This would be an awesome bar.

I pretty much grew up around Mission Pizza, but never actually had it until in high school. The main thing I love about Mission Pizza is that when you're here, you definitely don't feel like you're at Round Table or Pizza Hut. Very unique pizza place with a band stage (where they have live music on occasion - not sure when), a corner with some arcade games, and a wall decorated with beer cans. This place is definitely unique and definitely a place for the locals.
The pizza here is really good. One of my favorites is their Chicken Pesto. However, ever since I gave up meat, I always order their vegetarian pizza which is delicious and loaded with lots of different kind of vegetables.
The owners here are very nice and I still remember when I had friends working here. -1 star though because they are getting more and more pricey. The pizza here is pretty expensive. But hey, when I'm home, I'll still get Mission Pizza rather than at a chain joint.

I don't know about the pizzas (since I didn't have the opportunity to try 'em), but the customer service over the phone was horrible! My husband and I called the place and their employees were so rude! We were trying to find a good pizza place in Fremont since we were new to the city, but they weren't helpful at all! The person over the phone didn't offer to help us out. All they gave us was attitude. Plus, they don't deliver (even though it's stated that they do).

Yum! Great pizza, great service and such a cute place. On the weekends there are bands playing (mostly blues / old country, etc) and fun video games to help with the wait time for food. It is just nice to have a local place that is not a chian with great food and service!
99 bottles of beer on the wall...Well, we haven't ever really counted but there are lots. Unfortunately, they are just empty souvenirs. Fortunately, there's LOTS of beers to choose from on tap. Plus, you get to play the "Have you ever tried that beer there?" game as you wait for your pizza.
My husband likes this place a lot - probably for its quirkiness and its vast beer selection. The first time we came here, there was a bluegrass band playing. Imagine the Bernstein Bears as 50-something guys with long gray beards, complete with plaid shirts and overalls.
The funniest thing was when we put in our pizza order. The lady behind the counter looked up and asked, "Is that guy playing a saw?" Lo and behold, one of the band members was in fact, playing a saw.
The pizza is nothing to rave about. It's decent... for California. It isn't terribly different from a Papa Murphy's take-and-bake one though. So, I guess if you're coming here, you better be in the mood to eat some okay pizza, hear some odd instrumentals and to get good and drunk.

Mission Pizza is NOT New York style pizza. It doesn't try to be, nor does it have to be. I've been to pizza hotbeds such as Italy, Connecticut and NYC, and while I won't say that this is better, it is very good for Cali pizza, and better than most places in the city, by a significant margin.
Lots of toppings, all of which are of very good quality. Not too much cheese, which is fine with me, and a slightly spicy/zesty sauce. Ok, the crust is a bit thick for my tastes, but that's a personal opinion. All in all, this place is top notch.

SO. I noticed that there were a lot of rave reviews and therefore I decided to see what all the excitement was about! I bought a vegetarian pizza and when I first saw it I was like wow! It looks like a salad rather than a pizza! Turned out to be delicious and I do hope it's a healthy way to eat pizza! Definitely going back!

This is a great place to hangout because they have I think I counted 20 fine beers on tap, live bluegrass music on Friday and Saturday night. Really nice atmosphere with a very local feel rather than your homoginized franchise atmosphere found with the Round Tables & Pizza Huts of the world. They have a salad bar too.
My kids ordered a mini pepperoni/sausage pie and I ordered a small combo. The toppings were good and fresh, the veggies were fresh cut too. However, the crust left much to be desired. It was too dense where it was crunchy on the bottom but too much dough in the middle. BLAH! I want crust that is light and airy with a good snap and crunch. Their pizza did not make the cut IMHO. A good pizza hangout for Fremont though if you aren't interested in leaving town for Zachary's (Berkeley) or JT Mc Harts (Cupertino).
Absolutely delectable! I looked at the online menu and pre-ordered to prevent any wait. I hate waiting. The online menu is laid out very wonderfully; it is color-coded to signify meat pizzas, chicken pizzas and veggie pizzas. For some reason, I've always been very fond of bbq pizzas so it would be easier for me to compare this one to previous ones I've tasted.
The bbq chicken pizza here is officially called 'Tristen's BBQ Chicken'. Who exactly is Tristen anyway? It is neither of the founders nor their children's name. The pizza consists of BBQ Chicken, BBQ Sauce, Extra Cheddar Cheese, Red Onions, Bell Peppers. I ordered a mini, not knowing how big it was going to turn out, and it was $5.75. I requested for extra mozarella on the top and the lady on the phone sounded surprised that I wanted it on the top (she kept asking, 'on the top??'). She said it would take about 25 minutes.
The restaurant is located in a mini plaza in the middle of a huge residential area and seems almost out in nowhere. I like the quiet though. At around 1:10pm, there was a family of 3 and another group of 4 teens inside. The inside is like your typical pizza parlor/pub, all wooden everything and TVs. I got there exactly 25 minutes after the phone call and my food was ready to go. The man that got there wasn't too friendly - just asked what I needed and gave it to me. I could feel through the box that it was hot and piping.
The pizza itself was delicious. It was about 7' in diameter & probably 3/4' thick which is definitely enough for me. There was sufficient extra cheese - not so much where it's spilling off the slice as I pick it up. There are long strips of chicken which were well cooked - not too chewy and definitely not raw. I didn't give it a higher rating because the crust could use a little work. The crust seemed to be confused as to whether it wanted to be crispy or doughy, not to mention it was slightly bland. Perhaps they should put more butter/oil on it before cooking.
Luckily for this pizza, the toppings were so overwhelmingly good, I didn't concentrate so much on the crust. I'd definitely go back - easy location with good parking, quiet neighborhood, timely service.

While not the greatest pizza I've eaten in my life, the pizza at this little shindig is still the best in all of Fremont. The main reason for this is the extensive dough they use in each pizza they make. Every slice I've ever had at Mission PIzza was never greasy or lacking in toppings. Having this kind of quality in a local restaurant has made this a family favorite ever since I was in grade school. I highly recommend trying this place out.

Great atmosphere... the pizza is so so. Love the live music. Good family place.
I have been eating mission pizza since my children were babies. They are now in high school. The pizza is the best, the folks are even better. One of the best places for a family to eat out in Fremont. Check out the coupons (offered on thier web site) and look out for double coupon nights!
I really like this pizza but I have to say, the owner is quite obnoxious. He has a take it or leave it kind of attitude that spoils it for me. Also, the place isn't very kid friendly.
