PizzaHacker/BagelMacher SF

Worst salad ever. I’m sorry to post because we love their pizza but when you pay $16 and get yellow kale it’s disappointing. Should have stuck with pizza. Pic shows a few but won’t order again.

Sadly I think they’ve really gone downhill in the last year - a year ago I said it was the best Margherita pizza I’ve had. Now there’s some serious shrinkflation! Shared two pizzas between 2 adults and a kid and were still hungry. They’re also suddenly super stingy on toppings, I’m about the crust but I’m not exaggerating when I say my $25 pizza had 2 mushrooms chopped up super small and maybe 3 pieces of cheese on it, it was also 2/3 crust!! At this price point there’s many better spots in SF!

I got the Over the Top pizza and The Ohio as a square pizza. Over the Top was pretty good, would definitely order that one again. I wasn't as impressed with the square pizza, I don't think their sauce works well with the thicker dough. The service was pretty slow as there were only 2 servers for the whole room. I'd definitely order from here again. -2 stars for music being way too loud, it was hard to talk to my partner across the table.

Suuuuper cool pizza restaurant with very basic inventory and lots of families with children. Definitely not a quiet place, but oh so good! Will come back for sure! - update 12/22: they updated their furniture, so cool and fancy! maybe was a bit cold in there imo. otherwise: good as always!

Could not believe the quality of this pizza! Just moved to the neighborhood and had a pizza craving tonight. Been to New York, been to Boston, but The Ohio pizza was the best pepperoni I've ever had, 100% no joke. Will be back for more. The crust, the sauce, the pepperoni... perfection.

ATTN: FINAL BOSS PIZZA After trying 85 San Francisco Pizza Establishments since May 2022, this Pizza Reviewer deems PizzaHacker/Bagel Macher SF as one of the G.O.A.T.S., Standard Bearers and God's of San Francisco Pizza. One could safely win an argument that this is actually possibly the Best Neapolitan and Best Square/ Detroit Style in all of San Francisco due to the how high quality they are but also because they use San Francisco Sourdough in everything. That is why you can safely argue this is actually the Best San Francisco Pizza period. Jeff Krupman, I assume is the author of this Pizza and by following PizzaHacker/BagelMacher SF on Instagram, it is clear that he is a Devotee of Pizza. By the way, the Intermezzo Salad is also excellent. A nice variety of fresh vegetables and a nice Poppy Seed dressing. Back to the Pizza, the sauce is out of control good here. It is insanely good and it is bright blood red to boot! The whole quality of this Pizza... you need to make trying this place Top Priority if you actually love Pizza and/ or Sourdough and/or San Francisco. I am a Native of San Francisco, not from somewhere else and i say this. I am a Top 10% Pizza Reviewer on Google and I say this. I am a Pizza Elitist. A Man of Pizza. A Devotee of Pizza. A Self Diagnosed Pizza Expert. Offered to be a Pizza Officer via Yelp (for Hawaii though). I have been to New York. And Italy. And Chicago for that matter. Okay? So do yourself a favor and either go to PizzaHacker/Bagel Macher for Both Styles of Pizza wether it is Neapolitan San Francisco Sourdough Pizza or Square/ Detroit Style San Francisco Sourdough Pizza or get it delivered. Those are your only options. Until then, do not chime in with your opinions about Pizza. As if you know anything. You don't know what you're talking about until you go here. These are facts. And by the way, they have been doing the Square/ Detroit Style since 2009. Okay, Jack? So this isn't their first rodeo. Their Square has been around for over a decade. So they didn't do it to cash in on a trend like a lot of the newly opened ones regardless of it they are good or not. I have tried every single Detroit Style Pizza in San Francisco and only one other place uses Sourdough - Sunset Squares. I would say the Square here stacks up well with the following: Capo's, Cellarmaker House of Pizza, Long Bridge Pizza Co., and Tony's Napelatana. That's the area of the truly good Detroit and honestly... PizzaHacker is probably the best of them all. So stop reading this. Create a plan to try this. Now. ATTN: PizzaHacker/BagelMacher SF Now. I do have this one criticism. Why no original art on the boxes? Why no shirts for sale? This Pizza is so good that I want these things. I want to wear a PizzaHacker/BagelMacher shirt. That's what I want. How dare you not have some kind of thing with imagery relating to your fine establishment for strange men like me to wear when they go other places to represent how much they love what you do for Pizza daily? How dare you! Addendum I: Gluten Free SquAIRS After trying the two main styles of Pizza here and receiving a nice message in response to my Review... I felt PizzaHacker deserves something few Pizza Establishments deserve... My trust in them to try their gluten free style. To be fair, it is a lot smaller than the Gluten Full Detroit Style and it is borderline no longer Detroit Style which is why they probably don't call it that. It actually is really good if you are someone who must eat gluten free only. I would say that if you want to eat something good that is almost Detroit Pizza and the exchange of that for your bowels being tied in knots all night isn't worth it to taste the excellence of their Gluten Full Pizzas, this would be good. Obviously Gluten Free is probably never going to be able to be as good as otherwise but this is good. I am not mad I tried it because I love PizzaHacker and they deserve for me to try it and talk about it here. Summary My Ratings, using the One Bite Pizza Rating System: Thin Pie - 8.9 Detroit Style - 9.1 Gluten Free - 7.5

Pizza options were fun and different. The crust is thin, need a side of marinara to dip the extra crust pieces.

First time there so I won’t dare to judge them till I visit them enough times to give them a fair review but so far I was pleased with their pizza their version of the typical pepperoni pie and I even liked the Shroom one as well. The good news is that they impressed me enough to return and try their other options. As far as service and atmosphere they’re set up to be very family friendly so if you’re looking for a fine dining experience you’re not getting it here. Service is simple and straightforward. They keep their menu pretty simple as well which I like.
