"This is Goat Hill’s original location (named after the goats that used to roam Potrero Hill) and is as much of a neighborhood favorite now as it was when it opened in 1975. The pizza is made with a sourdough crust and baked in a traditional brick oven, with classic options such as pepperoni or Goat Hill favorites like the Saltimbocca with chicken, bacon, garlic sauce, sage, and lemon." - Dianne de Guzman
"Goat Hill Pizza in Potrero Hill has been around since 1975, and here’s why—the brick oven-fired pizzas have thin sourdough crusts that are so good we practically hear angels sing when we eat one. That, and the fact that the red-checkered tablecloths and goat drawings and statues make us feel like we’re at a quirky relative’s house for Sunday night dinner. There are 14 combinations on the menu, or you can build your own. We usually go for the Porky Pie with bacon and red onion, plus enough roasted garlic and garlic cream to single handedly keep the breath mint industry in business. And because there’s no such thing as too much garlic, get a side of toasted garlic bread. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
"Goat Hill Pizza has been the go-to spot for brick-oven pizzas with crisp sourdough crusts since 1975. The counter-service restaurant—outfitted with red checkered tablecloths and goat-themed decor—is also a laidback place we come to after winning a game of kickball, or for weeknight dinners when cooking is absolutely out of the question. The pizza order should include the Porky Pie, loaded with tomatoes, bacon bits, and enough garlic to keep Altoids in business." - team infatuation
"Goat Hill Pizza is perhaps the only local business on this list, and while it’s worth patronizing it the 364 days of the year that aren’t your birthday, this business does take care of customers signed up for its Goat Hill Rewards program. There is the promise of a free birthday pizza (with restrictions, natch), and in case you doubted the sincerity of the program, a convincing “No Kidding!!!” is included on the signup page as reassurance." - Dianne de Guzman
"These sourdough pizzeria extraordinaires have a shop in West Portal, but the Potrero Hill location is a destination in its own right. Grabbing a pie and taking in the scenic views at the top of the hill on a clear day is a rare San Francisco delight." - Paolo Bicchieri
