“ Absolutely the best with such attention to highest quality ingredients makes this our favorite pizza. The salads are so fresh and the homemade dressings just delicious. All served with true hospitality and smiles! We love APM ”
“ A Must Try! American Pizza Mfg is a Take and Bake Pizza establishment -you order one of their signature pies (or create your own pie with whatever ingredients you want), it is assembled, and shrink wrapped fresh to take home to bake at your leisure. These pizzas are not cooked, just assembled with the ingredients you love, and packaged with instructions to bake at home. It’s like your own refrigerated pizza from a local grocer, but without the preservatives and freshly manufactured on-the-spot especially for you. They also have nice dessert options - we ordered the take and bake chocolate chip cookie, but will try other dessert options at a later date. What we especially love about American Pizza Mfg are the extensive veggie offerings, the goat cheese option on the menu, and the Cutie Pie Kit for a kids pizza party. As a vegetarian, it is nice to find a place with plant-based options, and to be able to create your own vegetarian pizza or vegan pizza is not an easy find. We did curbside delivery for our order, and Andrew had the best customer service and common courtesy with the delivery of our order. We are a military family of six and we appreciate that our sacrifices are appreciated with a 15% military discount offered (military families need to call in to receive this discount or show military identification before payment). Thank you Andrew and Thank you American Pizza Mfg for being military-friendly! Our family plans to make American Pizza Mfg part of our weekly meal rotation. ”
“ Andrew and Lori are the best. So inviting. Pizza is amazing. So are the salads. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun way to feed the family and or date night!!!! ”
“ Delicious pizza. Extremely friendly and helpful staff. Concept of cook-at-home pizza is cool!! Worked well for our family on vacation. “The Levi” pizza was a fan favorite (even with Cauliflower crust) Garlic Knots as well! Gluten Free Options for pizza - Cauliflower Crust ”
“ Wasn’t sure about the take-and-bake concept at first, but I was totally wrong—this is some of the best pizza in San Diego! Fresh, thin crust, unique flavors, and top-quality ingredients. Their salads are also amazing! The owners are local and incredibly kind. Support this awesome small business! ”
“ This place is so freaking cute! The owners did a great job designing this place and you can really tell they care about every order that walks out of these doors. I enjoyed my pizza last night and can’t tell you how delicious both my pizzas were. FUN FACT: I ended my dinner with the cookie & it truly grows to be as big as your face!!! As a certified personal trainer and nutrition coach, I really like having an option that doesn’t have all of the extra preservatives and additives as a traditional pick up frozen pizza. You could really taste the difference in their high-quality sourced ingredients & I’ll forever recommend this as a healthier alternative for all my clients! In summary: - they don’t skimp out on quality ingredients - their customer service goes above and beyond. - you can peek in through their window and watch every step of their transparent and open manufacturing process (nothing to hide!) @neeks93 on insta & I APPROVE! ”

“ This is my absolute favorite spot for pizza! The owners/workers are super nice and friendly. The pizza is incredible and I love that you can choose from a variety of sauces and toppings. Every time I go here I enjoy a complimentary glass of wine while waiting for my pizza. :) ”
