"Pizzetta 211 is thin-crust pizza royalty. The lowkey Richmond spot earns the title based on evenly golden-brown crust alone. What goes on the pies depends on what’s in season, and rotates every other week. So expect super fresh ingredient combinations like gooey eggs and asparagus or braised short rib with garlic confit. The pies serve one, but the ideal way to eat here is to come with a date or a few friends and split as many as will fit on the table (which could mean ordering all six pizzas). And save room for dessert—the dense flourless chocolate cake is a neighborhood gem, as is anything with their brown butter shortbread." - julia chen 1, lani conway
"We wouldn’t be surprised if actual sorcery was involved in the making of Pizzetta 211’s flourless chocolate cake. The dense slice at this cozy Richmond spot has a subtle touch of almond flavor, and the dollop of whipped cream ties every bite together. It’s the perfect cap to a night that should also involve lots of wine and multiple thin-crust pizzas topped with farm eggs and corn." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez, patrick wong
"Dinner at this walk-in only spot feels like eating a meal in a friend’s (tiny) home. There are only four indoor tables, and a roving restaurant dog that keeps folks company while they wait—and there will be a wait. But it’s worth it, because the snappy, seasonal pizzas here will make you pledge your allegiance to thin crusts for the rest of time. Also get your hands on their flourless chocolate cake, which is dense and not too sweet." - julia chen 1, lani conway, ricky rodriguez
"Identified as the gem of the city’s pizza map, representing one of the top pizza-focused destinations worth prioritizing when exploring the local pie scene." - Dianne de Guzman
"You may have driven past Pizzetta 211 many times on California St. in the Richmond - it’s tiny and has minimal signage. But it’s a great place to know about for a quick pizza and salad dinner. The pizzas change up seasonally, but whatever they’re offering with a fried egg on it is usually a good bet." - taylor abrams
