"Darby Aldaco served as the executive chef at the lauded Nancy Silverton pizzeria Triple Beam before opening this Slabtown pizzeria with his best friend, entering the already crowded sourdough pizza scene with a New York-style shop. However, Pizza Thief still stands out for its take, which retains the unfussy joy of a pepperoni slice with the notable tang of a sourdough pie. The shop’s pepperoni has a nice char-dotted base with a serious dose of stretchy cheese, and the Hot Tony is absolutely piled with cured meats and peppers." - Ben Coleman
