“ I came across Pizza on 5th while looking for a pizza restaurant on Fifth Avenue. One of their staff was welcoming as soon as I walked inside the restaurant. Their menu offers a slice of pizza for 7. I had a slice of their veggie pizza. It had black olives, green peppers, and mushrooms as toppings. The crust was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I enjoyed every bite of the pizza. They have other vegetarian options on their menu as well. Overall, I had a pleasant dining experience at Pizza on 5th. ”
“ We always come here when visiting San Diego to enjoy the thin crust pizza and delicious cheesecake! Nice to see Alonzo working here; he is always so attentive and friendly! Nice, simple casual place to enjoy a bite to eat. ”
“ I went to Pizza on 5th, bro... the food here... fire!!! I am out in San Diego on a birthday trip and this food tasted like literal heaven! I got my favorite dish, shrimp Alfredo! The staff was amazing! So patient with me. The energy here is unmatched to anything I have felt so far in San Diego! I love it! ”
“ Honestly, a fantastic spot—kinda divey in the best way, but the music gave it an elevated vibe. On a Monday night, it wasn’t crowded, but the bartender was exceptional—attentive, welcoming, and an overall great host. She was just naturally incredible being for the hospitality industry. Having managed multiple restaurant teams at large resorts; the bartender, I can confidently say she is a true asset to this business, and I genuinely hope management recognizes and values her contributions. The portions from the kitchen were generous thankfully bc it was a 21 panini, but the flavors were delicious... plus their kitchen is open late! Tugba, thank you for an awesome experience! ”
