Pizzeria with sourdough crusts, margherita & specials
"The pizzas at June’s will leave the entire table stunned. The former cult-following pop-up has landed in an industrial space in West Oakland that can barely fit all of the sourdough crust enthusiasts who flock here every night. There are only two pies on the menu—one flawlessly executed margherita and one rotating special—each the size of a bike wheel and smothered in freshly grated parmesan. Get both, and prepare to find cheese in crevices you never even knew existed." - julia chen 1, lani conway
"What started as a pizza pop-up that sold out within minutes is now a West Oakland restaurant. Get the margherita dusted with what seems like an entire wheel of parmesan, and enter a sourdough crust-induced state of bliss for the rest of the day." - patrick wong, julia chen 1
"The pies at June’s are the best you can get in Oakland, full stop. Each of the sourdough pizzas at this West Oakland restaurant is approximately the size of a car wheel, showered in a freshly grated parmesan snowfall, and has a crust that’s reached optimal levels of chew and char. There are only two pizzas on the menu at any given time—order one of each and spend the next hour or so admiring the dough-stretching going on behind the bar and licking cheese off your fingers." - lani conway, julia chen 1
"June’s Pizza became a pandemic-era pop-up darling thanks to the strength of its pizza offerings, but it was unceremoniously shut down due to a lack of necessary health permits in 2021. Still, pizzaiolo Craig Murli persevered, reopening June’s at 2408 Mandela Parkway in September 2024. June’s is known for its cheese-dusted crusts and a limited menu consisting of just two pies a night — margherita and a rotating special. Some may think that’s unorthodox for a pizza place, but diners aren’t complaining, as the pizzas often sell out quickly." - Dianne de Guzman
"The pies at June’s are the best you can get in Oakland, and maybe the entire East Bay. The sourdough pizzas here are approximately the size of a car wheel, showered in a freshly grated parmesan snowfall, and have a crust that’s reached optimal levels of chew and char. There are only two pizzas on the menu at any given time—order one of each and spend the next hour or so admiring the dough-stretching going on behind the bar and licking cheese off your fingers" - team infatuation
