Happy to have the chance to try Mama’s Boy pizza today. It has been talked about by my coworkers and I have seen it gone viral on social media. Expectations were high, and it definitely met them. The pizzas I got were the garlic slice and grandmas pepperoni. I also ordered a side of garlic knots that comes with 2 or 5. The garlic slice was great. It was very tasty. If you like the thin slices, then they do it very well here. The pizza holds its structure perfectly and the dough is fresh. I loved the grandmas pepperoni. Detroit style is my favorite, and Mamas Boy does it amazing. It is fluffy and airy, and then the bottom is charred and gives you a crunch. The mix of texture is pleasant, and the char taste adds to the pepperoni flavor. Loved this pizza a lot. Their house made ranch was great too. It is $1 extra. I wanted to buy a shirt from them, but maybe next time I’ll buy one.

Pizza is super clean. Very nice non oily crust. Got the hot honey flavor which was not hot at all but very honey-ed. The burratta is a lil more runny than I'd prefer but the slice is still phenomenal.

Great pizza!! Very thin. Good undercarriage, and the sauce is nice and balanced. Not too acidic, not too sweet. Probably tied for my favorite pizza in the Bay Area with June's. They are on DoorDash, so that's a plus

Pretty solid NY style pizza in Oakland. We ordered the pepperoni and sausage and wish we ordered more slices. The texture of the thin crust is perfect. It’s neither floppy nor drippy and holds its shape well. The crust is wonderful with the honey burrata.
