Johnny’s NY Pizzeria — Restaurant in Rocklin

Tried Johnny's Pizza recently and was impressed with the quality. You can really taste the freshness of the ingredients, which makes a big difference. My only critique is that the dough could use a bit more flavor—maybe just a touch more salt—but that’s something they can easily fine-tune.

It seems like they’re still new, so I encourage folks to be patient. Too many people rush to leave harsh reviews because of wait times, but these guys are clearly still figuring things out and doing their best.

With having said all of that, if he want a GREAT GREAT NY style pizza then this is the place to go. Perfect cheese to sauce ratio. Red sauce is the best....

I’m a food critic and I’m doing my Best of 2024 list as we speak. This Pizzeria has the absolute best Pizza in the entire area. That includes Placer County, Sacramento County, and beyond.

This dude was making Pizza from his garage just a few weeks ago. Now he’s up and running in a Ghost kitchen and has been consistently SOLD OUT for several months. Johnny’s gets the edge over Celestino’s for having the best High Tier Pizza Pie in the entire area. This is New York style Pizza at its best. His homemade family recipe Sauce and Dough are the true...
