Reviews For The Pizza Joint

As soon as we came in the cashier / cook was very friendly and talkative. Answered all my questions knowledgeably. You could tell he enjoyed his work. The environment was very unique and cool. You could tell it’s been a staple spot downtown for years. There were a couple families in there and my friend’s son was able to draw on a chalk wall they had there. You can order pizza by the slice and it was really great. We got the spliffs as an appetizer which were their breadsticks, the mixed wing flavor of hot & bbq and then the regular pepperoni slice and Maui-Wowi which is their pineapple pizza. Crust was perfectly crispy and everything was sauced up right. A great experience and spot. Highly recommend

My wife and I have made this one of our favorite stops during the month. We love it. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Now the staff choice of music can be a bit much for young ears and older population but I love it anyway.

Nestled in the heart of downtown El Paso, this local gem has become our go-to spot for office meetings and celebrations. The pizza here is consistently delicious, with a perfect balance of flavorful sauce, melty cheese, and toppings that taste fresh and generously portioned. Every slice feels like a treat, whether you’re diving into a classic pepperoni or indulging in one of their creative specialty pies. What truly sets this pizza joint apart is its reliability—not just in flavor but also in service. Orders are always on time, and the staff is friendly and accommodating, even during busy lunch hours. Whether you’re grabbing a quick lunch or planning a group gathering, you can count on them to deliver quality every time. If you’re in El Paso and craving pizza, this spot is a must-visit. It’s local, delicious, and dependable—a winning combination!

This was four hundred feet away from my hotel. Absolutely amazing. I ordered online seamlessly by the time I walked over. My food was piping hot.I'm ready to go. When I walked back to my room, I was thoroughly surprised with how much I loved having a bag of joints and wings. It was the perfect meal to sit down and watch the u f c fights. Everyone at the place had a great attitude. The food was absolutely amazing. Definitely, try this place out And will not be disappointed.

I visited the Pizza Joint with a friend whom i dont share the same taste in pizza toppings. We ordered a “Meatie” pizza with added half mushrrooms but there was some confusion. We explained this to the manager and he was very understanding and very helpful. I would definitely recommend, GREAT customer service and patience, not to mention the amazing vibes felt by all the workers working the back. From the cashier to the girls that made our pizza to the manager, everyone here was amazing. Visited 1/28/2024 at around 9pm.

Fantastic pizza One of the best NY Style pies you're ever have. The crust is very light and thin. The taste is explosive with the right amount of sauce and cheese. Visit the downtown location where they utilize the old fashion gas ovens.

We got there a little before opening so we waited on the patio for a bit. The staff was friendly and let us in as soon as they opened. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was welcoming. Will absolutely come here again.

It’s in such a nice place of downtown, service is quick. The moment you walk in, you’re greeted by a burst of color, laughter, and some of the most affirming signs I’ve ever seen in a restaurant. As a queer person, seeing that kind of open support on the walls—loud, proud, and unapologetic—meant the world. It wasn’t performative; it felt genuine, like this place means it when they say everyone’s welcome. And don’t even get me started on the art. The walls are like a gallery of local soul—gritty, gorgeous, and full of stories. You can tell they uplift community voices, and it gives the whole place this layered texture that makes your pizza taste even better somehow. Speaking of which—the pizza? Bomb. Giant slices, perfect crust, flavors that slap. It’s comfort food done right fr.
