Bronx Pizza, Pizzeria in San Diego, US.
Bronx Pizza is a pizzeria in San Diego, California, that specializes in New York-style pizza made in a gas-fired brick oven. Pies are sold by the slice or as whole rounds, with a short menu focused on a few classic options.
The place was opened with the stated goal of bringing New York pizza to San Diego without changing the recipe or the format. That original intention has stayed unchanged since the beginning.
The name refers to the Bronx, a borough of New York City, and the place makes no effort to adapt its style to local tastes. Slices are large and thin, eaten folded in hand, just as in a classic New York pizza shop.
The restaurant is open Wednesday through Sunday and tends to stay open a bit later on weekends than on weekdays. Going earlier in the day helps avoid waiting, as popular slices can sell out before closing time.
The dough recipe used here was brought directly from New York and has not been changed since the place opened. This gives the crust a texture that many visitors say is hard to find anywhere else in San Diego.
