Pizza Old Roma

First time I tried this pizza. After many yrs of seeing this place packed during the holidays. I cannot understand what people rave about. Their lg. pie isn’t that lg. The taste is flat and dull. Very over priced .How ever it was very clean and the guy was nice .I was hoping for much better taste.

awesome little hole in the wall!!! we each ordered one single piece of pizza, expecting them to be taken from a pizza already made. nope!!! each piece was made fresh to order and they were SO SO GOOD!!! happy we came across this little place!

I loooovvveeee this place. If I have to pick a favorite pizza place, this is it! It’s a little mom and pop shop so when I first went there I was ready to be easy on them. Ya know, maybe they ran out of certain stuff, maybe they are busy and flustered… They aren’t a chain or have multiple locations so I know they may need some areas to improve. But, damn… damn good pizza. The guy was really cool, down the earth. I picked up a salad and some pepperoni pizza. So delicious! Even my brother who is SUPER picky about pizza loved it (An amazing feat because I kid you not he makes me drive to scottsdale sometimes for his favorite chinese food. So picky). I will always recommend this and can’t wait to stop in again.

Wasn’t planning on coming here, but the food at the chocolate fair was overpriced and gross looking. So i walked in and had an okayish salad and a tasty pizza. this place also had live music but it was of poor quaility.

Excellent pizza! Excellent service! We arrived famished and a little grouchy after waiting for an hour and never receiving our meals at The Hop Stop; we were so hungry that I told our server we needed our food fast! He told us their pizzas take 10 minutes to prepare and he was right! The man who prepared our food was fun to talk to and took time to just chat, which was nice! We met the owner and were shown a new piece of art they are going to hang up. We ordered a large pepperoni and black olive pizza and it was delicious! The crust was the perfect thickness and had a great flavor, the sauce was perfect and not over-​powering. Pepperoni and olives are always great! My brother, who was with us, is a caterer and knows good food so the fact that he raved about the pizza should be proof enough to anyone reading this that the pizza was not ordinary. Thank you, Pizza Old Roma for a quick but delicious meal!

The pizza was good pizzeria pizza. No real service. Go to the counter, order your meal and drink, collect your plastic utensils and paper napkin and find a place to sit down.
Clean, but nothing special. If I’m in the area and hungry again, I’ll go here if my favorites aren’t open.

After spending a hot afternoon antiquing in town, this pizzeria looked like the most convenient place to grab a quick bite. The dining area is minimal but clean, and the servers are very friendly. I ordered two cheese pizzas with pepperoni – all their pizzas appear to be cheese and toppings are extra – with a drink (they carry Pepsi products). The pizza came out hot and greasy, like one would expect from a good pizzeria, and really hit the spot.

I grew up eating in this joint when it was at Valley West Mall… decided to take a trip down memory lane. Things have changed, the pizza is round now!
Otherwise it’s as I remember, very hot and very good. Staff is friendly and helpful, the shop is clean and we’ll maintained.
Very happy to have stopped by and will again.

Had a really poor experience here. The place is very old and that makes it look very dirty. There were flies buzzing around the restaurant. The bathroom was so disgusting that I walked back out. Our pizza took over an hour and there were not enough people there to warrant it taking so long. The pizza was missing some toppings too. Overall, the pizza wasnt very good. We haven’t gone back and probably never will.

There was a line out of the door for pizza when I arrived. I took a look at the menu and there were a few different pizza flavors that looked good. So, I stood in line for a very long time. When I got to the front of the line, I placed my order. The person behind the counter said «We don’t have that kind tonight.» So, I ordered another flavor. «Uh, we don’t have that kind either.» So, I asked, «Which flavors are available tonight?» She said: «We just have pepperoni tonight.»
Super, super disappointing as I was extremely hungry and walked quite awhile to get there. It would have been helpful to post a sign on the big menu saying, «We only have pepperoni tonight and do not have this long list of other options.»

Came here for the first time today after I did some field experience at the school nearby. I’ve been by this place before but I decided to try it out today. That and I was really craving some pizza.
The place is a nice little shop and the man behind the counter was super nice. We actually had a conversation and I wasn’t rushed away like some other places. Luckily for me, they were making a batch of cheese pizza so I was going to get the first hot slice.
The guy brought me my pizza and it was pretty delicious. It wasn’t the best pizza in the world but it was a million times better than any pizza chain out there. If you’re into atmosphere, it is very casual. A great place to have a date night or get together with some friends.
I probably should have got a meal deal because it would have been cheaper. Luckily there will be a next time because I really dig the pizzas they’re making. So glad I came here for a slice.

Great place for a causal slice. Not world class, but great for what it is. The staff was friendly and the outdoor seating worked well to chat and people watch. Good food, great value.

ROCKSTARS like me, who like eating some BIG FAT GREASY DELICIOUS STEAMING PEPPERONI Pizza, dripping with some hot melted mozzarella cheese and an ice cold drink should stop and have a meal here! Every Wednesday I come in, order 2 slices of cheese pizza, a side salad and a small drink for about 5.50 ! I often add pepperoni, but for a dollar less you can eliminate the side salad. Who eats something healthy like a salad anyways when you are about to eat something that will bring your mouth full of flavorgasms of delight?
Rockstars always do something to set them apart! One thing you can do is try Manzanita Sol (Apple Soda) on the fountain drink, I can’t think of any other places that has that, so it separates this place apart from the rest, also, I don’t mind a small cup since I always get free refills, why should I pay for a bigger one? Right?
If you are eating with friends, since all ROCKSTARS have friends, get a large Roma Supreme for under $ 20 ! That’s the true way to go!
The guy Colby who works here, super cool dude. Major props to him always!
ROCKSTARS DON’T buy from a pizza chain, keep those Arizona dollars in state and get a pizza here!

Stopped by here yesterday. Couldn’t decide if I wanted to go here or the other pizza place that’s literally right down the block. Came on Unilocal and saw that this place is cheaper and has fountain drinks. I didn’t feel like spending lots of money so I thought I’d give this place a try. Got the two slices and a soda combo for $ 7.00. They didn’t have any pizza lying around so they made it fresh for us. Pizza was really good. Would I say it’s the best I’ve ever had? No. Best in Glendale. I haven’t tried all the pizza places in Glendale, so no. But it’s pretty good if you just want a couple slices and not a whole box.

Where to find a slice of pizza on a Monday afternoon? I am happy to say Pizza Old Roma in downtown Glendale has a great slice, The Greek — Gyro meat black and green olives, fresh sliced tomato, feta and pepperchini!
They are located on the north east corner of Glendale and 58^th Ave. Not next to the comic book store as Unilocal first advised.
Nice old town feel and sweetheart cook.
Happy stomach and soothed soul.

First let me say the don’t have coke products was about to say no to my boyfriend because of it but so glad I didn’t. Pizza was amazing we had the large pepperoni. It was fresh out of the oven and it was absolutely one of the best pizzas I have ever had. We also tired the mozzarella sticks and wings because we like to try it all lol. The wings were very good if you like them hot go with the hot if not I would recommend the medium. The mozzarella sticks were delicious! Seriously a great place to eat. The only bad things (bedside the coke thing lol) is their ac was out so it was a little warm to sit there but seeing as we live in AZ I didn’t mind it helped burn the calories lol. Still worth it for me to eat here it was great we will be coming again

I have no idea how this place has positive reviews… GF and I ordered two slices and salads and the pizza came out of a rotisserie warmers that a gas station would use. God knows how long it was in that warmer… Unfortunately it tasted like a long time…
The store itself had different style booths, a tv in the corner with the plug hanging next to it unplugged, and a cool old fashioned Pepsi sign on another wall, again with the plug hanging next to it… On another wall theres a picture frame with openings for multiple 5×7 photos but instead of photos, one opening has the thermostat, two were blank and the last one framed the holes in the wall.
Kinda gives you an impression that financially, things aren’t so great.
I would say I would give it another chance but I don’t see that this place has anymore to give…

This is good cheap pizza for those moments when you don’t care whether the mozzarella came from buffaloes who had their hooves massaged daily — you simply want lunch to be cheap, pleasant, filling, and served politely.
The décor that emphasizes vintage Volkswagen buses, presumably to remind the Glendale retirees of eating pizza like this when they were students at UC Berkeley, between protests. This is a very good pizza to fill you up, ridiculously cheap, when you’re exhausted from a hot day of protesting.
It tastes like good, ordinary pizzeria pizza slices used to taste, back before pizza was a gourmet thing. The crust is thin, mildly salty, and pleasant enough that I ate all of it, though not in the vein of uttermost crust rhapsodies, more with the «don’t mind me, nothin’ here to see» feel of eating the broken cookie bits from the Chips Ahoy package. Don’t order the ham on your slice, as it’s unexciting ham: get pepperoni or sausage. Toppings are 26 cents each on slices, and the slices are large, so it’s quite economical to get exactly what you want, though with slices of this consistency, I would stop at a maximum of four toppings. A fork’s likely to be wanted, unless you believe in doing pizza-​slice origami.
I’ve gone back and forth between three and four stars because it’s fairly ordinary pizza, but it’s ordinary in a good way, and if I lived in the neighborhood, I’d probably eat here a lot. My eating the crust justifies the higher rating, as does their delightfully old school method of having customers make iced-​tea by pouring tea from a hot-​pot with teabags over ice.

Love this little pizza joint!!! My bf and I came and ordered calzones and they were delicious… you can put up to SIX toppings for same price (so awesome!!!), so we had sausage, pepperoni, and mushroom. It was very very good, my daughter and I split ours because it’s that big… very worth it and prices are reasonable. Next time I’m coming for the pizza because they make it from scratch and you do have to wait a little but who cares it’s so worth the wait… because you know you’re getting it FRESH :-)
This little restaurant has about maybe 10 tables inside but what I love is the old glendale scenery, if you want to eat outside and enjoy the weather they have a few tables out which reminds me of Italy. Nice place to chill and relax guys

Definitely a great spot if you’re looking for local, inexpensive pizza. Personally, I find this to be a bit on the salty side, and the tart sauce doesn’t help with that. However, I always have to appreciate a good pie made fresh by people who care.
Prices are insanely low. You could probably feed two people for under $ 10. I appreciate that it’s very clean, and that one time, they delivered it across the street to my friends and I at OTG Wine Bar. Glendale is slowly being invaded by chains like –bertos an Caramba’s. Join the resistance and give this place a try.
