Rounding up for the cool atmosphere and great service. Lots of rock n roll pinball machines and metal decor. The pizza itself was missable and the wait epically long. Convenient location to grab a bite before the show

Went in with some friends while visiting Oakland and it was great! The theme was so fun and we got several varieties. It took us a while to decide because all the flavors looked so good! They were able to accommodate some ver happy vegans, vegetarians, and one celiac (gluten free). If I lived in Oakland I would definitely frequent this spot!

Just good solid pizza and friendly staff. The pizza is more of a grandma's style pie (less thick and doughy detroit style) which I liked as it allowed for a good cheese to sauce to dough balance. Well baked, not too oily, and with a nice crispy crust (which was the best part). Also loved the fact that you can get one-hitters (personal sized) at a decent price point without having to commit to $25+ pizzas nowadays from comparable places. Allows you to try more pizza topping combos too. We got the Canadian tuxedo (very interesting) and the Hinterlander and appreciated the amount of toppings and balance for both. Would definitely return to get the Maquahuitl or other interesting combos. Buddy got a couple beers which he enjoyed. Also, staff was real friendly and also understanding with a Grubhub online ordering issue that had delayed getting the order in and out. Even with Grubhub being difficult the staff handled it. As you should expect, the place is metal themed from the decor to the music/movies on loop. Wouldn't hesitate to drop by for a pie again next time!

I had the tuxedo pizza it was scrumptious! Such a nice combo of unexpected flavors, I enjoyed every bite! I looked over the menue and there are so many I would like to try and from the taste of the tuxedo I am confident that any other odd sounding combo will be delicious as well...super good! Try it, I'm sure you will enjoy it too.

Great place to grab some authentic delicious tasting pizza. The menu has some very unique pizza options. I went with the all veggie and the sausage with veggie pizzas. Both were super delish. Tons of beer offerings on tap! They also have a delicious root beer as well. Plenty of seats and the coolest part is the 20 pinball machines they got! If you love pinball, then this is your spot! Music is heavy metal so be sure that's your thang !

I stumbled on this place looking for an ATM and was intrigued by the environment. When I entered, people played Warcraft board-type games, pool tables, and pinball machines. I decided to stay and try one of their small pepperoni pizzas and enjoy the games. The food came out quickly, and it was delicious. I decided to play on the pinball machines, and they have an app where you can upload money and play if you don't have coins. I thought keeping their customers engaged in their restaurant was a cool feature. Come check this place out if you want to chill and play and have a bite to eat.

A few blocks from the Amtrak station in Jack London Square. Great spot for a quick bite to eat if you're traveling the California Corridor. Comfy living room style furniture, laid-back punk/skate/rock kind of theme. The pizzas are different. Their house pizza has a lot of peppers on it. Tasty but very spicy. Nice change of pace.
