Pizza Sola

Had a very nice first visit the other night to this location. It is a nice, cool location that is very clean and well lit with a bunch of TVs showing sports. The guys behind the counter were fast, courteous and friendly, and had a good knowledge of their beer selection. They have a good assortment, including cider. The pizza slices are enormous and they have a nice selection of toppings and styles. There was plenty of room to sit and the environment was casual and it was easy to relax.

The main drawback is price. I had a cider and a slice, and it ran me 8 bucks. While that is pretty good for the pizza size, I felt a little shocked at the total price. Nonetheless, I'll probably try to make stops here instead of Hemingway's or Peter's in the rotation.

This is the only place in Oakland where I purchase pizza as it's the only pizzeria that doesn't have a soft crust or use ten times more american cheese than mozzarella cheese.

Pizza Sola sells by the slice which is a nice option rather than having to buy by the pie as you have to in most of the other Oakland pizza joints. It's also cool to receive a large, prowess slice rather than the typically small slices usually found on campus. Unfortunately, Pizza Sola is not as busy as the other joints, so the slices have usually been sitting around for a while so that they are not as fresh.

Keep 'em coming boys.  

Love this pizza thin crispy crust and the toppings are fresh. Best pizza I have had in the city by far.
