Sir Pizza

5 stars because this is my second favorite pizza place in Pittsburgh. My #1 (Manhattan style pizza) is far from home and not convenient anymore. Sir Pizza is also very very good and I’m happy to have found a closer to home option. The Sir Pizza style is different than any I’ve ever had but I love it. They cut it into little squares and the toppings are diced and spread generously across the top. They sell beer here and parking is ample. There are lots of tables inside and this would probably be good for large groups.

It’s definitely a love or hate place. I personally love Sir Pizza ever since my friends discovered it back when they only had one location. We get the sausage and onion pizza every time. Delicious! The leftover pizza is never as good as when it comes out fresh, but I don’t mind it at all because we rarely ever have leftovers.

If you’ve ever had good pizza, don’t go here. You’ll be gravely disappointed. I don’t understand why this place is relatively popular… The service was great and the beer selection wasn’t bad but the food is godawful. Top five worst pizzas I’ve ever had (including frozen store-​bought pizza). Take this review with a grain of salt, though. I’m from NJ/​NY.

My rating is based on the pepperoni pizza. There are very limited options for pizza in this area and unfortunately, none of them are any good. SIr Pizza is definitely one of them. Silly round pizza cut into tiny squares is perfect for a little kid slumber party, but so is Totino’s. The crust is thin, almost non-​existent, the cheese is barely melted and the pepperoni is diced like something you would find at a salad bar.
I ordered take-​out so I can’t really say anything about dine-​in atmosphere or service.

Crust tasted pre-​made and frozen. If you’re thinking about dining in you might want to check and see if they are holding a kids party. When we visited the parents let the kids run all over the restaurant and they all drank beer and wine in the party room. We tried to enjoy what we could of our pizza as children ran by or stood next to our table screaming. We ended up tossing 90% of $ 40 in pizza (that was just 2 pies)

My first Unilocal review. Can’t believe this just happened. Had some simple questions about the menu and had to call them back as I was driving and taking a group order and they got frustrated with me asking a 10 second question and grunted and hung up on me. Then denied it after called back and asked «did you just hang up on me?» and hung up on me again! I buy from them all the time, never again. Ungrateful jerks!!! Horrible customer service. There’s so many pizza places, I’ll take my business to someone who appreciates it and I suggest you do the same. Which I did. Called into another place and they thanked me twice. Give your hard earned dollars to small businesses that appreciate you.

This used to be Friday night dinner every week when I was growing up. My parents would round up my brother and I (usually a few additional playmates of ours too) and head down the hill from the house I grew up in to enjoy a pizza pie. I love the fact they had the old-​school style pac-​man game I nostalgically remember pumping money into and an old fashioned jukebox to boot. The Sir Pizza «gimmic», if you will, is a round pizza with square cuts. Thus the «corner pieces» are small and triangular (which were always my favorite pieces but I digress). The sausage and pepperoni is crumbled, not large slices, so be mindful of that if its not your cup of tea. The mushrooms come from a can too– it’s pretty obvious from how they are limp and lack any flavor. You order at the counter and pick it up at the counter. They do have some nice craft beer but that’s a more recent development. I don’t see the fascination with this place, honestly, however, if you’re not looking for a chain, options in this area are kinda limited. I definitely thought this pizza was awesome growing up, but only because I didn’t know better. One star for being unique with the round pizza, square cuts and one star for nostalgia.

I think Sir Pizza is one of those love it or hate it places. I personally love it!
The sauce, dough, cheese, and toppings are nothing like a traditional pizza and that makes me happy because I can get those types anywhere in Pittsburgh. The sauce it’s self is a bit on the sweet side, to combat this I add plenty of cheese and red pepper flakes. The dough is thin and crispy but not too thin like a cracker, and the pizza is sliced «party style».
The interior is a great transition from the past to the present including family photos, a juke box, super Mario cabinet and a Pac-​Man cocktail table.
They serve alcohol as well as soda (which is only $ 1.15)
I love this place and will keep coming back!

Sir Pizza is very hit or miss.
First off, I would like to say that if you are a traditional Italian, Sir Pizza is like a mortal sin. Instead of the common round pie with the large triangular slices, they have a round pie with small square-​like slices. You can see a picture of this somewhere on the page. Anyway, that is my fair warning before info into the pros, cons, and neutrals.
Pros: Sir Pizza is very unique. The pizza’s toppings are shredded onto the pizza. I have never seen this before so I thought I should mention it. Also, if you bring along the kiddies, they have these retro Pac-​Man and Dig-​Dug arcade games. They do cost quarters, but I think it is worth it to keep you preoccupied. They have a party room as well for special occasions. Finally, it is overall cheap.
Cons: The place is usually packed with people. You will wait a long time to get the pizza (s) you ordered. There are no waiters at Sir Pizza. You order at the counter what you want, sit down and wait. They do not have any dessert items to server either. The closet thing you can have to a treat after pizza is getting some cheap donut at the convienent store next door.
Neutrals: The sauce on the pizza is very sweet. I know this would be a big turn-​off or turn-​on for people so I just put it here. Lastly, the do serve things like hoagies, but they are very run of the mill. If you ever go to Sir Pizza, you go for the pizza.

This review is on the pizza alone, uniquely their own. We enjoy eating here with our children because they seem to really love this pizza. I do feel like the toppings are chopped a bit small and kind of feel mass produced. All in all if the kids like it we like it but I really do not see us ever going here once the kids have grown and gone. 5 stars for kids 3 stars for adults and a solid 4 stars all together

Used to love their pizza! Now I have to eat gluten free and wish they had gf pizza options! I know many other gluten free friends who agree and now can no longer order from here!

It’s an acquired taste. The toppings alone are bland and boring. All together they work.
It’s the only pizza all of my kids can agree on. A large pizza feeds 2 hungry kids or adults. Bring your full wallet

I really love this place. I have been going here ever since I was a little kid. The pizza is very unique as it is crumbled pepperoni or sausage on small cuts of pizza. It is very tasty and always very fresh. Most people either hate it or love it. I surely love it. I could eat at this place at least once a week. I’ve also gotten the Crusader Hoagie here which is a toasted Italian sub cut into 4 pieces and serves on a plate with a generous proportion of chips on the side. They do have a nice dining room area with a few televisions. You can also order for pickup, however they do not deliver.
I can assure you this pizza is unlike any you have had before. It is very good and the employees are very friendly and on top of things. Great place!!!

Sir Pizza is a North Hills staple. I’ve been eating here since 1^st grade. The pizza is unlike others you’ve had. The toppings go to the edge and it’s cut in to squares. Since the pizza is round, this means you get 4 «corner» pieces, which are actually triangles. Add some of the grated parmesan cheese and these are the best little bite. We’ve yet to deviate from the basic toppings… cheese, pepperoni, sausage, or pepperoni/​sausage. It’s just so yummy.
There are times when we go more than once in a week, so you may want to try something different. The white pizza is a nice change or the italian hoagie is good as well. Sometimes I get a hoagie and pizza because I want a little of both. Either way, yummy!
I like that you can dine in and grab a pitcher of beer. It’s a good casual place for a delicious bite to eat. If by chance you have some left over pizza, don’t expect a box because you won’t get one. Your pizza will be moved to smaller pizza round cardboard with and placed in a white paper bag. It sounds weird, but to those of us that go, it’s totally normal.
FYI…they are packed on Friday nights. Go early or wait for the dinner crowd to die down. If all else fails, get it to go.

I grew-​up on Sir Pizza.
Other than the takeout pizza not bring in a paperbag and them taking over that weird copy place, nothing has changed. It is AS delicious as it was in the 1980’s. I always get one large plane and one large pepperoni, even if it’s just me eating it. Love it hot, LOVE it cold for breakfast. I hear that it’s a love it or hate it place, I am a SIR PIZZA lover. The staff has always been overly helpful, polite. I’ve seen some of those guys in there for 30 years. If you are in the North Hills, skip McKnight and head over to Sewickley-​Oakmont. Reasonable prices and a great family business. For those of you who don’t like pizza, the salad and spaghetti is good too. Nice beer selection as well.

BEST PIZZA EVER.
I’ve been eating at «Sir» since I was 6. Tonight was no exception. It’s always good, always hot and never disappointing. It’s worth the trip to the Oakmont Rd. location, but luckily, there is one in Wexford now, too.
Get the pepperoni, just pepperoni and you’ll never be unhappy.
Eat Sir Pizza and be merry!

Sir Pizza certainly has a love-​it or hate-​it taste/​style to it, obviously I am for the love-​it side of the fence. I grew up in the mid 80’s nearby off of Rochester Road and this was probably the closest pizza place around our home. The fact that it has remained for nearly 30 years of my lifetime shows they have a following enough to sustain business!
I have lived in Phoenix, Arizona for the last 12 years and although I have paid a visit to PA from time to time I this may have been my first visit to Sir Pizza in those 12 years. I was showing my wife (whose never been to Pittsburgh) where I grew up and around the city and Sir Pizza was on the tour as a must to stop and eat at!
The visit did not disappoint, unless you count her introduction to I.C. Light which brought a very funny face out. Service was friendly, fast and when I said I hadn’t been here for years the gal at the counter said welcome back.
The pizza did not disappoint us and only added to the great time we were having. We ordered a 14″ pepperoni which is my go to here and the small cuts almost always lead me to go for one more. We said we’d stop eating with 10 pieces on the pie plate and by the time we left there were two. I’ve never come across another pizza place that crumbles their pepperoni and the perfect combination of thin crust, not too sweet or salty sauce and provolone cheese just works.
I refer back to the start of this review, you may not love-​it but at least try it. You never know when you may find your favorite memory and can pass it on and can retell the story later in life.

I ate here this past weekend with with 3 dining companions. Before I say too much in my review I have to admit that this is not my first time coming here and that I have been to Sir Pizza many times throughout the years. For me it is very much a nostalgic place and I love that they still have tabletop games of Mrs. Pacman and Dig Dug that you can play for a quarter and a jukebox. For dinner my dining companions and I split two large pizzas, one pepperoni and one half mushroom half cheese and a crusader hoagie. The pizza is cut interestingly here, 3 times across and 3 times down down giving you a number of small pieces which always leads to you eating just one more. The pizzas were both good with the pepperoni being crumbled instead of sliced and the sauce seemed to lack some saltiness. The hoagie was a little soggy by the time it got to me due to the dressing that was on but had a decent amount of Italian meats and tasted pretty good. I would give the food itself 3 stars.
The bottom line for me is that I will definitely be back here in the future. While the food is satisfactory, that is not the only reason to come to Sir Pizza as the atmosphere is great as well.

Sir Pizza tastes (and looks) like the best frozen Tony’s pizza you’ve ever had. The toppings are tasteless, the crust is very dense and firm, and the prices are very, very high for what you get. A 10″ pizza with two toppings was a bit over $ 10. The pizza was cut into about 12 2“x2″ square chunks, had they cut it into the traditional slices you might have been able to squeek out 6 small slices.
I also grabbed a six pack of Yuengling to go with my pizza. I wish I would have asked about the price first, it was over $ 10 for a six pack.
Ordering from Sir Pizza was a $ 20 mistake I’ll be sure to never repeat.

Always a favorite of ours… the pizza is fantastic! And the calzones… wowzer! They are HUGE and SO YUMMY! We will keep going back again and again!
