Meatball and Benchmark pizza were so tasty! We cant wait to order again. Also recommend the chopped salad. Loved every bite.

Great shop and great food, generally. A bit inconsistent lately though. The pepperoni on the pepperoni pizza was less plentiful and less crispy than in the past and the side of marinara was markedly different and less delicious than on past orders. On a previous order, the bacon pizza was very spicy, which was not advertised in the description - my guests could not eat spicy food and we ended up throwing it out. I'll stick with benchmark for now as they have a good track record, but I'm hopeful that that manage to get the quality up.

Good pizza but too expensive to be our go-to. The seasonal squash pizza was good but not $30 good.

Benchmark Pizza was delicious. It was a little cold when delivered so re heated it but otherwise really good !

This is some of the best pizza in the Bay Area. Number one in my book for their vegan option. Only thing I wish was that there was a custom pizza option. But great crust, sauce and overall flavor
