State of Mind Public House and Pizzeria

I visited State of Mind Public House for pizza before heading to the 49er game. Great place to hangout and watch football. We had a Pepperoni pizza and a Barebottle Brewing Hazy IPA. Delicious. The Pizza was cooked just right. Thin, but able to fold and eat perfectly without losing any toppings. Crust was light and didnt make me feel bad later. The servers were fantastic, and couldn't wait to refill our drinks! GREAT EXPERIENCE!

Go to spot for some beer and American tapas LOL we always get a pitcher of cider or some beers ATLEAST (the very least) two orders of the fried pickle onions (it’s like how onion rings were meant to be), we also love the brussel sprout pizza although the one in the photo is the jalapeno honey one, the impossible nuggets r good, the fried zucchini is good, cauliflower wings r also good. There is also a nice little arcade area at this location. I wouldn’t recommend the burrata or any of the other fried things as much but everything here is worth a try.

We have been to State of Mind a couple times and we have always been impressed. The food has always been fresh and delicious, and we appreciate the gluten free pizza option as well. There are plenty of food options for little ones, and the restaurant is very family friendly. State of Mind has a solid selection of beers brewed in California, and they have a wide range of styles as well.

Great pizza, like top 3 I've had in the bay area. Went on a friends recommendation and it did not disappoint. Crust was good but a bit floppy in the middle. Good flavors and the pricing was also quite fair for the location and pizza. Parking however is miserable so try to get there early.

One of our favorite pizzerias. They also have a great selection of beers. The space is bright and clean. Always enjoyed our meals here.

State of Mind is definitely the best pizza I’ve had since moving to the Bay Area. Very interesting flavor combo choices, like their peas pizza, but also really delicious classics.

Great pizza and bar. Great wings and salads. Service is weak. You need to flag down servers to get things. Food is served as it comes up which means you get appetizers after the mains, sometimes. Worse, you tip when you order so there is little incentive for improving. Very loud. But we go back for the food.

"A must-visit brewery with top-notch beer, great food, and an awesome atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!"

Best pizzas in the Bay Area in my opinion! Great selection of beer and also appreciate they have locally produced wine from Testarossa winery :-) Strongly recommend coming here

Good service and food, this time we ordered El Blanco with additional Jalapeno. It needed little seasoning, the spinach , onions were good and balsamic vinaigrette added a sweet note. Unfortunately this time the Jalapeno were all dud, not spicy at all sad . Also we ordered cheesy fries with fresno peppers, the cheese sauce was good. We had added 3 accompainments to go with Jalepeno lime and Ghost peppers sauces were ruined due to the sweetness in it. Habanero had a kick which was the saving grace.

Visited State of Mind and ordered their "Almost World Famous" jalapeño balls along with the "Award Winning" The Ultimate pizza (mozz, Pt. Reyes Toma, organic sauce, mixed mushrooms, pepperoni, and truffle zest). I called in my order and the service was great- really friendly and efficient for a to-go pickup. The jalapeño balls were the highlight of the meal. You get an order of five with homemade ranch, and they were delicious- super flavorful with a light, crispy batter and a creamy filling that had just the right amount of heat. The ranch was excellent too, though honestly the balls didn't even need it. The pizza, unfortunately, didn't live up to the hype. It should honestly be called the Mushroom Lovers Pizza- it was fully loaded with mushrooms to the point where they dried out in the oven and overpowered everything else. The rest of the toppings and flavors got pretty lost. The inside has a great hangout vibe with lots of seating and a really solid beer selection on tap. My total came out to about $40 for the pizza and jalapeño balls, which feels a bit pricey considering the pizza was just okay. Overall, great apps and atmosphere, but the pizza missed the mark for me.

Came here with a small group of friends while here in Los Altos. Great pizza and snacks. Ample parking. Just order and pay at front. It was easy to find seating on a weekday night for dinner. Nice spot for pizza and other snacks!

The pizza was so good it was spicy and sweet with honey. HEAT AND SWEET evoo, garlic, mozz, jalapeño, hobbs bacon, honey $25. We also had the ARUGULA Salad arugula, di stefano mozzarella, cherry tomato, and fried almonds with evoo and lemon $13.5 So good! Service was good and Ambience was nice we ate outside. You really should try it!

I've been on the hunt for my favorite, go-to pizza spot in the bay, and I think this is it! My boyfriend and I have been twice now in the last month, and both times were fantastic. The first time, I ordered the Insomniac with hot honey and arugula added, and the second time, I ordered the Blanco with prosciutto added. These obviously have very different flavor profiles, but they were both delicious in their own respect. First, the crust here is so soft and fluffy--this is hands down my favorite craft pizza crust! For the Blanco in particular, I loved the garlic and the dollops of ricotta; this pizza had a lot of flavors going on but I thought it was well-balanced. They have some unique combinations on the menu, but since these last two have been so great, I can't wait to branch out and try something new. I also enjoyed the drinks here! The first time, I got a hazy IPA, and the second time, I got a local Sauvignon Blanc, and both were on-point. From an ambiance perspective, I think this is a great spot for a casual night out or to get some good food and watch some sports. It's lively yet laid back! For service, they use an ordering app so there is little interaction other than food delivery to the table.

Food and Drinks: * The Ultimate Pizza *Summer Burrata (delicious!) *Black Hammer Lasers in the Jungle Hazy IPA *Mother Earth Cali Creamin Nitro Cream Ale Place can get busy so we put our names down and received a call when our table was ready. Loved the Summer Burrata.

We've eaten here several times now and the pizza is top notch. Their pizza leans more towards the thin crust style, even though the outer edges in my pictures look thick. Speaking of the crust, it is excellent. Great flavor and has a nice chew to it. The toppings are also excellent. They have a decent bar and they offer draft root beer, which is a nice touch. The inside of the restaurant is nicely laid out and very comfortable. Service is good and the people have always been friendly and accommodating. One of the times we were there, the pizza cook forgot that our pizza was in the oven and when we asked where our pizza was, he realized his mistake and pulled a smoking black disc out of the oven. Of course, he immediately made a new one for us. We enjoy eating here. It's a great spot.

Came to State of Mind Pizzeria with a party of 6 and waited about an hour to get seated. Orders are placed via QR code, and drinks go through the counter. Cauliflower wings were amazing, and our pizzas came with extra crispy crusts just like we requested! Toppings were an interesting combo, but overall a fun and tasty experience.

Hands down, Best pizza I've ever had! We got the gluten free ultimate combo. Also had the fries with SOM seasoning, and even had root beer on draft :) Absolutely delicious!

My husband and I tried State of Mind Public House after a nice hike. We had an unexpected surprise. The pizza dough had such great texture- nice and chewy, the topping was tasty yet subtle. The arugula salad very fresh with almonds and mozzarella. Shishito peppers - generous serve and tasty. We ordered at the bar, service was good. Nice ambiance.

Awesome food, awesome service, and awesome vide. I love to come here on my lunch for a tasty burger. Their home made chips are my favorite. I love that it has a bunch of old school video games and a bunch of beers on tap. You order at the bar and then pick a table and they bring the food to your table. The pizza is also equally awesome here they serve it by the pie so it's a large for a single serving. But if you want to try it by the slice they have a slice house in Palo Alto. I love the small town feel it has when we walk in and the ambiance is super chill. It's super family friendly and it's always super packed during the week especially on Thursday when there is the farmers market in the same street. Some come early but totally worth giving it a try. I love it and the people who work there and the owners are great. 10/10 highly recommend.

YES YES YES!! FINALLY - got to come and try this place - been wanting to come but it's hard with just two of us but after a nice hike two other couples joined us for Pizza and salad here which allows us to order a bit more! AM SO HAPPY we FINALLY got to try this place and now I totally understand why it's so busy... First off - you can order at the counter or at your table with the QR code. We opted for the table - the app is pretty easy - I basically just did a search of what I wanted because it didn't quite allow me to scroll to find what I wanted but it was easy enough since the menus were on the table... We started off with the special salad - the Winterland with grilled chicken. OMG - I HIGHLY recommend. It had bits of sweet potato and little slices of kumquat. The light dressing was PERFECT. I forgot to take a pic when we got it - but you can see what was on my plate! :) I definitely was very impressed with their salad and will have to come back before they change it to their spring version!! For pizzas we got the Ultimate and El Blanco. We loved both. We started with the El Blanco and they don't just "sprinkle" on the spinach - you get chunks of tender spinach - with fresh mozz and you spread that flavorful ricotta - it's a super tasty bit. And this is great for those who are watching their intake of tomatoes! The Ultimate was the favorite with the guys... We loved the crust on both - it was PERFECT - think, crispy, a little doughy at the ends with just the right crunch on the outside and chew on the inside... and the Ultimate was PERFECT as it wasn't overly salty. I tend not to get anything with pepperoni but this one wasn't about dumping a ton of ingredients - it was about balance - balance with the mushrooms, pepperoni, mozz and i'm sure the truffle zest took it to the perfect flavor - so well balanced and DELICIOUS!! Servers were super friendly and nice. You help yourself to water which is helpful. We got the Mango flavored Liquid Death. I love Liquid Death and hope they will soon incorporate some their new flavors like Dr Death and Cherry Obituary (hint hint). I can't wait to go back - it was a fun chilled atmosphere - very family orientated and I can't wait to try more pizzas!!

Came here in Valentine's Day around 5pm, we were told it would be a 30min but luckily it was only about 15min! We were seated and ordered via the QR code - service was eh. We got the water to the table but no acknowledgement, the pitcher and cups were put on our table pretty aggressively and the guy just turned around after he plopped it on the table. We ordered cheese fries and the half cheese half pepperoni. I would skip the fries, I legit couldn't taste the hints of cheese at all, all I could taste was beer. The pizza was good! Perfectly cooked and thin which is how we like our pizza. Their ranch is amazing! Loved their ranch. Also parking was easy - the establishment is right by a parking lot.

Hadn't been to downtown Los Alto in years. I had forgotten how much I liked that little town. It was m pitstop after leaving school and heading to work. My buddy and I decided on SoM after finding it on Yelp (yeah, that's how we Elite Yelpers do!). From the 4+ star rating, we went for it. By the time we got there and found parking, I was ready to eat a whole medium-sized pizza on my own. First thing's first, we ordered a couple of pints of beer. I had the Calicraft Oaktown Brown, which was excellent. I loved Newcastle Beer before it was bought buy Sierra Nevada and they changed the formula. My buddy got a blonde (I can't remember) and he liked his as well. We order two sets of chicken wings (traditional buffalo & chipotle cola bbq) and both were very good. We devoured them within minutes. For the main course, it was a pepperoni. I figure if they get that right, it gives me faith they can do the more complex pizzas right. The pepperoni was also very good. All in all, SoM definitely warrants a return. And yes, I will. Time for the pics...

This review is for takeout only. Their pizzas to-go are simply excellent. What sets their pie apart from others? The generosity of their toppings and a crust that's nothing short of perfection--crispy on the outside yet chewy- beautifully cooked every time. Rocket Man is my absolute favorite. The fresh arugula and zesty lemon topping bring such a bright, refreshing twist to every bite. For mushroom lovers, the Shrooms pizza is a classic loaded with an impressive amount of mushrooms--earthy and delicious. And you can't go wrong with a pepperoni pizza. With its spicy salami, it packs a delightful punch of heat. Can't wait to visit them soon!

I'm always enthusiastic when someone recommends going to State of Mind. Wide variety of specialty pizzas. Recommend the ultimate. The crust was crispy yet fluffy - very well done. We ordered a side of hot honey and that was a wonderful addition on top. Besides pizzas, which you really can't go wrong with, the jalapeño balls and cauliflower "wings" were also hits. Friendly staff too! Not really a beer drinker but I've gotten some great reviews about their beer selections from my friends!

A fantastic pizza and wings place. It was about a 15 minute wait on a Tuesday evening. We got several appetizers which were all excellent - cauliflower bites and jalapeño poppers were delectable. All of their pizzas were baked beautifully, had a nice crispness and were packed full of flavor. Good variety of wing flavors as well, although I did wish the wings were a touch meatier. Good service in a laid back environment.

I would never choose to go here again. I came back from a hike looking for somewhere to eat. Found a review of this place saying it was perfect after their hike. So decided to give it a try. We were greeted when we entered and told to take a seat and the lady would bring us menus. She completely forgot about us. Thats fine but then my Mom went to get menus. She came back to the table with menus and said sorry she never saw us come in. We were both a little baffled because she greeted us. Anyways we ordered their ultimate pizza to share and added sausage, through the qr code. Food came out pretty quick which was great considering we were hungry. Tried a piece of sausage and it tasted funny. Not italian sausage tasting. Not sure what it was but it was off. Tasted the rest of the pizza; it was fine. Not 4.4 star good pizza. More like 2-3 star pizza. Topics just all seemed to blend in a forgettable way. Pepperoni seemed a little undercooked. The next part I am not necessarily blaming the establishment for. The noise in that place was loud. Normally im good with loud considering i go to sports bars. This was families yelling over each other to control conversation loud, and their kids running around the restaurant screaming loud. I assume it was a one off event. We left. Wont be back.

Pi day 3.14 brought out everyone. Estimated wait time was 1.5 hours. We decided to do take out and then our table came through. We ended up eating our takeout at the restaurant. We ordered two award winning pizzas, the Ultimate and the Not Fade Away. The best one was the Ultimate. That pizza was super tasty. The Not Fade Away was unfortunately, forgettable despite its name. The place was busy. Not a lot of seating, unless you want to sit outside.

My husband and I are obsessed with State of Mind! They have an impressive selection of hard-to-find beers from across the state and a great menu as well. We ordered the Frankie G pizza which is as delicious as it is aesthetic. We also got a Caesar salad to share and I loved the actual anchovies that they put on top. Plus, you could tell the croutons were made there and they were nice and buttery. It gets pretty packed any given day but there are lots of places to sit both indoors and outdoors. We can already think of several friends and family members we want to bring here!

A very popular place to stop after weekday afternoon cycling group rides. They have a good selection of beers, burgers, pizza, and appetizers. I really like that you can order a 10 oz beer if you don't want to drink a full pint, and it's priced more or less proportionally with the full 16 oz version. There is an extensive selection of local beers on draft. There is plenty of seating both inside and outside, but during the busiest summer months they can fill up, with up to a 20-minute wait. However, at other times of year it is pretty easy to find a table, and they have heaters for outdoor seating in the colder months.

Put name on waitlist. Walk around downtown. Return and order. Enjoy yummy foods! We enjoyed everything we ordered! jalapeños poppers, cheesy fries, wings and the ultimate. Kids enjoyed the cheeseburger & impossible nuggets - the chips were super crispy & addicting! Place gets packed! Get there early!

State of Mind is definitely the best pizza I've had since moving to the Bay Area. Very interesting flavor combo choices, like their peas pizza, but also really delicious classics.

Solid pizza and beer selection! I enjoyed my time there and would be back to just have a chill evening with some friends. Big fan of the ambiance there as well! It feels like a neighborhood eatery!

My friends and I were in the area trying to figure out what to eat and figured we couldn't go wrong with pizza and beer at State of Mind. We were there right when they opened on Sunday at 11:30am and shortly after the place was filling up with groups of people for Sunday lunch. We decided to go with 2 pizzas and a salad to split between four of us and this was more than enough to fill us up for lunch and have a couple slices each for leftovers. We opted for the two Award Winning pizzas on the menu and they did not disappoint. The Not Fade Away was an interesting pizza, the walnut sauce giving it a slightly sweet component to it which paired well with the prosciutto. I think the only thing we weren't huge fans of was the escarole (I think the size of the escarole was a bit bigger than we'd like so sometimes that was all we were getting in a bite and We weren't big fans of the texture in the pizza). Nonetheless, I still thought the pizza was a good try! The ultimate was our favorite because you really can't go wrong with a classic like pepperoni and mushroom. I do love that they used the small pepperoni as well. The winterland salad was nice and refreshing, something to help offset the pizza and beer lol. As for the beer, lots of options for different preferences. I love that they had Humble Sea. I like a good Hazy IPA and got the juice smack, which was the perfect addition to a great meal. Overall, good food and good vibes. It's definitely a nice place to grab food and hang out with friends. Id go back next time I'm in the area.

Don't overthink it. Great pizza, and well worth a visit. I've already reviewed this place on Google but after tonight, I've got to add to the algorithm via Yelp. Please come here. It's super good pizza (all the classics, plus some shocking fancy ones like with a pea pesto or fancy estero gold cheese). So tonight, it's packed. Wait for tables? No problem, put our name in and we will play pinball. Anyways, our order got messed up (no appetizers) and the staff was absolutely lovely. The manager(?) Took the situation in and immediately made it right. No weirdness. No "let me force you to eat this salad you ordered an hour ago"... just compassionate understanding and a free beer. I don't mind mistakes, but ownership and correction? Those matter. PLEASE give that dude (short dark hair, goatee) a raise, and thank you for being my favorite spit in my new neighborhood.

Great pizzas, beer's & service!! Our group of 14 was seated promptly (we had a reservation) and it was a snap to order from the QR codes and keep all the orders separate. Ultimate pizza was not bad, should have had more toppings and cheese. Mushroom was good and Hobbs (jalapeno and bacon and hot honey) had a lot going for it. Of course you can add other toppings at $2 each. Very fun experience and plenty of parking!

Yoo~~ this place is GREAT! Finally found a better place than Slice House, way better! Got the Ultimate pizza, and while the toping s were a bit better than average, it was the crust and tomato sauce that was great. Crust moreso, it has that balance of soft, crispy, and chewy. Service was good too :) Mom and I loved it. Will be coming back!

Came here on a Friday night for a little pizza and wings and realized how popular this place can be , about 1.5 hour wait but will say they did good job to get us in about an hour. Overall , very positive experience. We had the cheese pizza , wings , fries and a salad all of which was excellent. The overall ambiance is that of a cool little local pizza place with inside and outside seating and a bunch of pinball games in a back room. Very nice overall feel. Now the one item which was less than excellent was service , it was either extremely pleasant or I'm bothering them feel. The variance in staff customer service was extreme. Seem like a few people maybe have not a great day , but maybe just a one time thing so will try it again , for those in the party not ordering they really loved the experience So shout out to the front reservation , the guy that took our order inside and the great kitchen staff and food server. To the others , hope today is better But give this place a try you will really enjoy the food !

FRIENDLY! Everyone was so polite and helpful. The beer selection had a good variety and the pizza selection was nice! A local pizza joint vibe and a good time seem to be had by everyone. We had the Old Goat to share and the Cesar. The hazy IPA and on tap rootbeer hit the spot.

Oh man is this place popular and busy! My friends and I came here on a Friday. There were 5 of us. It took about an hour to get a table. We were seated outside and ordered through the QR code. Food: To start, we ordered the following: Fries - Crispy & standard Petite Breakfast & Jelly - You cannot go wrong with a soft cheese and some pepper jelly. Jalapeño Balls - These were delicious even if the portion was small for the price. We made the great decision to order 5 pizzas for the 5 of us. I ordered the El Blanco pizza. It was pretty delicious. The other pizza I tried was the cheese. It was pretty good. I did not try the other 3 pizzas, but my friends enjoyed them. Service: Service was pretty quick. As we were seated outside, we didn't interact too much with staff. We ordered through the QR code and our food came out as it was ready. TL;DR - Deservingly so packed pizza place!

Average pizza with some unusual flavors like brussel sprouts and ricotta . Ambience is not gonna impress any girls . Claims of best in the bay must be bribed .....

Had State of Mind bookmarked on my list and was glad to finally try. Very spacious indoors and outdoors, and it was quite empty on Tuesday lunchtime. We ordered at the counter, an order of cheese fries and a half and half pizza. I wanted to try the sweet heat, but they could only do halfsies on the first half of the pizza menu. Friend ordered the SOB and I got the Ultimate. Our cheese fries came out quick, and the fries were piping hot, yummy beer cheese slathered on top. The fries reminded me of In n Out fries, very yummy, but just wish they were crispier. Our pizza came out shortly after, and looked plentiful with toppings. The Ultimate...I wish it had more truffle flavor, could not taste it at all. The crust was soft and chewy, but only qualm was the pizza was very soggy. The pizza was thin and possibly too much sauce on top. Overall, a great addition to Los Altos and plenty of food options and beer.

After many months of abstaining from eating pizza I was really looking forward to having pizza at this restaurant since I had recalled the quality was great from a past experience . I was absolutely disappointed. Firstly the person at the bar taking my order was not communicated that they ran out of the pesto . So after waiting 25 mins when I came to pick up the pizza it wasn't ready as they wanted to check what I would like to substitute with . I told them I would substitute the half with margarita and retain the other half as Shrooms per my original order . I waited again and then was given the pizza . Drove home to find out they messed up my order and made the whole Pizza margarita . And I was craving the shroom half . Not only that the pizza was not fully cooked and horrid as felt like I was eating dough . Don't know how the ownership will make up this for me. I am upset at paying for this for sure and I had come from Mountain View for this .

This place has got to be my absolute favorite pizza place in the Bay Area! Friend recommended coming here after tennis and I am so glad he did. The service was very good, waiters were attentive and nice, and you can also self serve water at the bar. It is a QR code to order so it did expedite the process. I am a sucker for mushrooms and let me tell you, the Ultimate Pizza is absolutely phenomenal. The truffle isn't too overpowering and the crust on the pizza is crispy and the right amount of dough. The Frankie G was mainly for aesthetics and it was pretty yummy. However it is a bit too creamy for me with the additional cheese on top -- so if you love cheese, this pizza is for you. I absolutely love Arugula and this salad was very light and had the right amount of seasoning. Overall, great vibes, parking is easy and food is delicious. 10/10 recommend.

Wow! What a hidden gem in the heart of downtown Los Altos! You can not go wrong with a grandmas pie as it is honestly some of the best pizza I've EVER had. Yea, bold statement, right? Their wings are super delicious and so are their Jalapeño balls. Great beer on draft and cans. Ask for Ashley, she is great and super attentive while holding conversations with her guests making you feel at home. Super clean establishment and you can see the cooks doing sauces and prepping everything by hand so you know it's going to be super fresh. I would HIGHLY suggest coming here if you're ever in the area. Thank me later.

This pizza place is one of my go to place. It's a family friendly place too. Parking is tight but I do not mind going there. Love the staff! After I got a Review Posted message, I clicked the x but sent me back here!

Stopped in with a group of friends after a short hike a couple of weeks ago for a sit-down meal, and then we found ourselves in the area again and decided to grab pizza again as take out. Short story: get the Grandma Pie, if it's available. I think it's something about the dough on this pie, but it is satisfying chewy and crispy and the sauce is flavorful and fantastic! When we got it with the group, we got it plain with no additions and it was a group favorite, and then when we got it as take out we added the vegan sausage (I am vegetarian, husband and friends are not) and it was even better! The friends we got take out with didn't even know it was vegan until they saw me eat a slice, and they also thought it was delicious! Other group favorites include the heirloom goat cheese pizza (can confirm tasty) and the sweet heat pizza (non-veg, but husband and friends enjoyed it). We also had ordered the fries with truffle zest and the squash rings as sides with the larger group. The fries were lukewarm and dry, but I appreciate that they did truffle powder instead of truffle oil (which often leads to overly oily fries), but the squash rings were piping hot and tasty! It's a pleasant place for a sit down meal--we we're seated outside and there was a bit of a wait for lunch on a weekend, but the pizza hit the spot! It's a cute location for a stroll after the meal, too. Their take out is also pretty easy, the pickup area is dead ahead walking through the main doors and a bit to the right, but my husband wasn't able to make the order via their website on his iPhone for some reason so we used our friend's computer and that went smoothly, YMMV. We don't end up in the Los Gatos area often, but if we are and we're looking for food, we'll definitely be keeping State of Mind in mind!

When it comes to pizza, I can never get enough... so of course I found myself at State of Mind Public House on Saturday night, while in Los Altos for a film fest. The almost world famous Jalapeno Balls were tasty and unique. And the award winning Ultimate pizza was yummy, with different kinds of mushrooms adding to the flavor, even if it didn't really stand out otherwise. We didn't have dessert here, but they had so many flavors of It's-It ice cream sandwiches, I was definitely tempted! The venue was modern with a family friendly atmosphere and an arcade with tons of pinball machines. You order at the bar or through a QR code at the table (first come first serve seating). The staff was friendly and helpful, though we were there during the last hour of business, and around closing time at least one of the employees was banging the seats around quite loudly while cleaning the restaurant without any care for how that may ruin customers' experience... let's just say it was bad enough for me to mention here and knock off a star from this review, imagine the endless clanging of metal while you're trying to have a pleasant conversation and enjoy dinner with loved ones. Other than that, this is a cool spot for some decent pizza and appetizers.

This is a fun place to take the family with its selection of bar food taken up a notch, huge selection of beers and cocktails and arcade with classic pinball machines. My son chose this place after his graduation from SJSU because they have a great variety of specialty pizzas that we all could share. Everyone's favorite was the Heat and Sweet: EVOO, garlic, strips of bacon, jalapeño and hot honey and a close second was Frankie G Special: pepperoni, ricotta. I still enjoyed the Not Fade Away with its unusual combo of walnuts, mushrooms, prosciutto, walnut vinegar and parsley and El Blanco with EVOO, garlic, spinach, ricotta, red onion and balsamic vinegar but wanted more of the Heat and Sweet. We washed down our pizza with a pitcher of cider and boy did I have a happy food coma. It's a bit out of the way for us but we need to put this place in our rotation more often!

The el blanco was insanely flavorful and crispy! And the slices are huge. Incredible pizzas. I will be back Loved the casualness. Heat and sweet had the perfect amount of heat / flavor. The square pie was good wish the outside was just a little crispier but overall still stunning pizzas!

I've been stopping into the Los Altos location for years, it's become my favorite lunch spot between the San Francisco and Monterey Bay AreasI originally found it on Pinball Maps because they have a nice selection of pinball machines, but come back for the enticing beer selection and excellent food. The Bird Song Chicken Sandwich is undoubtedly one of my favorite sandwiches, period. Add bacon - it's worth it. The pizzas are killer, the wings and jalapeño cheese bites are also recommended. My favorite detail however is the consistency. They've got a dope ass game plan and they stick to it really well. And did I mention pinball? Yeah... it doesn't get much better.

Hey i came back i was super wrong or i got a weird one i dont know what i was on but this is a great pizza with great staff and the best ingredients anybody has access to. Also the burgers are phenomenal

Come for the Pizza. Stay for the Fried Chicken Sandwich OMG. I really wanted pizza when I came here for lunch, but the fried chicken sandwich cried out to me. This was hands-down the BEST fried chicken I've ever had. And the black pepper cole slaw on the OG sandwich was phenomenal. If you're anywhere nearby (I went to the Redwood City location), you gotta make a stop here.

This is my first time here. I was in the area doing a job and decide to get some client recommended. This place because I wasn't in the mood for some good pizza and boy. Were they right? I ordered their Mushroom and Olive. And Buffalo wings. And it was delicious.I will definitely bring my family here sometime in the weekend

Not sure why this place doesn't have 5 stars. We've been here like twice a month for the last few months and the food is consistent. You order at the counter then the food is brought to you. The menu has such a variety of food and everything I've tried was amazing. They have great options for vegetarians. I recommend the cauliflower wings with buffalo and jalapeño on the side. Jalapeño poppers are also so good, if you like spice. Grandma's pie is my fave, without the meat of course. They have a variety of beers and draft root beer is a must! I could go on and on. Also, the chili oil is a plus! They also have a pet friendly patio but if you want to sit inside they offer arcade games.

I came to downtown Los Altos to try State of Mind for lunch. I appreciated the warm, cozy atmosphere and decorations. Each table had parmesan cheese (which tasted much better than the parmesan at other restaurants) and chili oil, which I had never seen before at a pizzeria. The chili oil pleasantly enhanced the flavor of the pizza. We ordered The Ultimate pizza because we were intrigued by the "award winning" note on the menu. I would highly recommend The Ultimate if you like mushrooms! The pizza had perfectly cooked, thinly sliced mixed mushrooms, pepperoni, and truffle zest. I loved the flavor and texture of the pizza crust! It was the perfect blend of crispy and chewy, like a fresh baguette. The sauce was also notably flavorful and fresh, which made the pizza stand out from others I've tried. The pizza was more than enough for me and my boyfriend. I took home a few slices, and they still tasted amazing the next day! We also ordered cheese fries, which were good. I prefer slightly crispier fries, but overall this was a delicious and satisfying meal!

This is a nice not-so-unknown pizzeria. Pizzas have thin and crispy bottom with chewy edges. Ultimate pizza was tasty and would recommend if you like mushrooms. Magherita pizza sauce was not too sweet but still good. 14" can feed two and two pizzas for three people are more than enough unless you are a big eater. I wish the pinball machine take coins or bills instead of having to buy a card for $2. Not good for a casual player.
