Pizza My Heart — Restaurant in Capitola

For my money, by the pie or the slice, best pizza in Santa Cruz County! Clever pizza combinations, generous toppings, super dough--all for the price of a ho-hum chain pizza. Personal favorites are the Corralitos Market (sausage, apples, bacon & gorgonzola) & Mediterranean (goat cheese, red bell peppers, artichoke hearts, red onion & olives), though my now-converted BFF & her hubby swear by Hector's All Meat (6 meats!). Some obligatory salads (or so I'm told). Odd & slim beverage selection, but beer & wine are available. The small dining room is cramped, cluttered & noisy with multiple screens all on. (For what it's worth, the restroom opening directly off the dining room is clean & maintained.) But it's about the pizza, so order ahead & eat at the beach, in a park or watching the games at home! After a couple dozen take-out calls, Pizza 1 has given me precisely what I ordered every time! And if they say your order will be ready in 20 minutes, they mean 20 minutes.

Oh, they also ran out of water. 🤡 show.

Original post Was looking forward to this sourdough crust but it was just meh. Nothing I couldn't do at home. Ok sauce and cheese and toppings. Workers were cool and the place was clean. Huge bathroom. Typical $5 local...

I ordered a #1 combo with pepperoni, red onions, green peppers, mushrooms, Italian sausage and fresh tomatoes but when I brought the pizza back to my motel room, the restaurant had given me the #2 vegetarian combo with red onions, green peppers, zucchini, mushrooms, black olives, herbs and fresh tomatoes. A little annoying but I like veggie pizzas and didn’t want to drive back for the correct pizza so ate what I got. It was unfortunately a bit bland with a too-thick crust. Maybe a little salt on the veggies or roasting them or a sprinkle of Parmesan would have helped. But the...
