“ Seriously delicious pizza! Great flavor, crispy crunchy edges, perfect sauce to cheese ratio. We just discovered this place couple weeks ago and have ordered it more times than Id like to admit. Get it. ”
“ The pizza here is all that typical California pizza isnt the dough is thick and crisp, the tomato sauce is rich, flavorful, and spicy, and the toppings are really strongly flavored. The classic pepperoni is great, but the Kermit and the Philly were beautifully unique. ”
“ My husband and his mom wanted pizza but Ive been trying to watch my carbs Carbona came through for all of us. The pizza was great kinda fluffy, loaded with toppings all the way to the edges, and crisp on the bottom. Whats not to like. The pizza bowl was really good. I wasnt sure if the spaghetti squash would work with the pizza toppings but it absolutely did. Well order again. ”
“ I have been eating a lot of Detroit style pizza lately. In my opinion, Carbona is the best in the Bay Area right now. I ranked all the places I have tried from best to worst below. Carbona, Joyride, Square Pie Guys, Little Star, Pizzeria Da Laura, Tonys, Slice House, Hesher and 8 mile. ”
“ Holy mother of Za! SO. GOOD. Great to have such culinary blessings in East O. First time eater here but Carbona is instantly going to the regular takeout topshelf. Got the thick pepperoni. I love saucy pizzas and this did not disappoint well maybe the corners were a bit dry but thats why you get extra sauce on the side. The pepperoni were all cooked into those cute bowlwithabitofoilatthebottom shape and were chewy and quality. The sauce was outstanding, I dont think you can have exceptional pizza without exceptional sauce and they really hit it out the park here. Thick, intense, rich and tangy. Finally the real differentiator is the thick crust. Yet, its light and airy in the middle balancing out the intensity and flavor up top. That crust makes it a really unique experience IMO, something I havent really had before. Its actually a lot of bang for your buck too I guess two hungry peeps could eat all this but my wife and I could not, its rich in its way and I want to approach this pie with some respect. Itll all get eaten tomorrow tho, if not later tonite. ”
“ I dont think you understand. How much. I love this pizza. That Id die for this pizza. How much this pizza has given me life, revived my SOUL. Thank you carbona. Thank you beautiful crispy pizza edges and topping fillings galore. Thank you to briny, salty, spicy. Thank you to the best ever fluffy pizza crust. Thank you carbona. Thank you. I am forever in your debt. ”
“ Delicious pizza! We ordered the Thick Pepperoni and added extra pepperoni and the Thick Mahalo. Im glad I added extra pepperoni because the amount on the pizza was perfect. Both pizzas had a delicious, thick crispy, perfectly fermented crust. I enjoy a slightly more sour crust and this was excellent. The Thick Mahalo had great flavor, the pineapple flavor was there without biting into large pieces of pineapple. I actually couldnt see any pineapple but was able to taste its sweetness. Jalapenos were minimal and it wasnt spicy. Prices for each pizza were cheaper if you ordered for pickup rather than on a delivery app so we picked up our order. Definitely recommend ”
“ The pizza was delicious flavorful and fresh. We had the mushroom pizza and pineapple pizza. The crust taste buttery and has a great texture. The portion was large. We ordered two pizzas for two people and we only ate half. Would definitely order again! ”
