"The pies from Joyride Pizza are encyclopedia-thick behemoths that are surprisingly light—the focaccia-like crusts stay airy underneath a mountain of toppings, and the crisp bottoms crackle when you bite into them. Toppings range from classic pepperoni and Italian sausage to things you’d find at a farmer’s market stall—brussels sprouts, arugula, and fig jam. And the slightly sweet tomato sauce is so good you’ll want to order even more on the side for dipping. Joyride has a takeout-only slice shop in the Mission, but we prefer the Yerba Buena location, which includes seating overlooking the gardens. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
