Maldonado's Pizzeria — Restaurant in Mountain View

This place is great. No seating available really, just a counter to pickup your pizza. It really feels like a hole in the wall, but when you walk in and see the crowd waiting for pizza, you know you're in the right place. If you order anything with toppings, you'll know why -- they heap them on there in huge quantity, which can feel very satisfying, and their crust is strong enough to take it well. I like their cheese pizza quite a bit though too, and often I prefer it so I don't soak the crust in too much topping generated grease. So far, as NY style pies go in the south bay -- this is my favorite. If you've read any of my other reviews, you'll know I grew up in NJ and lived in IL for a while and consider myself a bit of a snob on both NY style and Chicago style pizzas. I've been disappointed by pizza places here in CA again and again. But this place is now my default if I want pizza. Its just good. Its still not quite "exactly ny style" but its close enough to satisfy me without triggering my "you call this pizza?!?" reflex action. I've gone back at least 4 times since I first tried it, I can't say that of other places I've tried. Usually I'm done after 1 time. Grab a pie to go, you won't be...

I have lived in this area since I was a child. This was one of my favorite places. Tonight I had the most upsetting experience. Called to order a large pizza. I asked for half pepperoni and black olives and half combo no mushrooms ( we are allergic) I received a pizza half combo extra mushrooms and half pepperoni, black olives, and extra spicy jalapeños. My 3 year old was upset as it was pizza night. I called to let the manager know what had happened and instead the rude girl that took my order kept me on hold for more than 10 minutes and then hung up. I called again and she would put me on hold then she would hang up again. This happened every of the 10 or 15 times I called!!! When the “manager” answered he was so rude no apology and he just said they were busy and hung up. The kind of nerve they have to treat their customers that way is beyond me. The entitlement is unbelievable. It is completely understandable if someone made a mistake, but the way they responded to the issue was disgraceful!!! Never again will I order from this horrible place!!! It is not even that good anymore, it is...

A great New York style pizza restaurant mainly to go. A wide variety of toppings are available, allowing you to order the pizza of your choice. You can choose different toppings on the right and left sides, so you can enjoy different tastes in a single pizza. There are also four different sizes to choose from (10“, 12”, 14“, and 16”), making it easy to adjust to fit the number of people and your appetite. I ordered the 10” to eat alone for lunch and it was just right. If I was a bit more hungry, I thought I could eat 12 inches as well.

You can order online and choose either to pickup or delivery. You can choose to pay by cash or credit card and since I chose to pickup and to pay by credit card, the payment was at the store when I picked it up.

I had Maldonado's Special Pizza and it was really good! I ordered a sandwich and a caesar salad the following day. The sandwich came with a tiny potato chips.

I will definitely order again when I visit...
