Serving the Richmond Since 2004
Pizza Joint opened on Balboa Street in 2004 and has spent the 22 years since feeding San Francisco’s Richmond District and Outer Sunset. No frills, no fuss — a simple counter, a hot oven, and dough made from scratch every day.
Our signature pies are named for the twelve signs of the zodiac — Leo the Lion, Pisces the Fish, Capricorn the Goat — recipes built and refined over two decades behind the counter. Around them: oven-baked sandwiches, tossed wings, pastas in a red sauce made from scratch, and salads made fresh to order. Pizza, subs, and grub, done right.
