Pina Pizza House - Downey

Pandemic hit a lot of places. Pins has improved since then and glad to see they survived and thriving. They are a landmark in Downey and a must visit.

Wanted to try something different and the carnitas pizza did NOT disappoint. We ordered it to go, still was warm/hot when we got home. Super delicious and the chipotle sauce works perfectly. The quality of the pizza was phenomenal as well. Every bite was yummy. Will def be coming back!

As someone that grew up in Downey, I have very fond memories of eating Pina's Pizza delivered in the cute delivery trucks. It was a treat in our house and It was the best pizza! Was is the operative word... I was recently in Downey and tasted the pizza, and I was shocked because it tasted like a frozen pizza that they cooked in the oven. The dough and crust was not at all like I remembered. The crust was hard and the vegetable pizza had canned mushrooms on it. Even Dominos Pizza uses fresh mushrooms. It wasn't at all like an Italian Pizza should taste and I wonder if they changed her recipe???

This is a place of sweet memories I went there today for the first time in over 40 years. It was just as delizioso as I remember it. A true Italian family run restaurant with recipes from decades ago in Italy. Everything is homemade for instance the sausage. A real treat. Wonderful memories revisited.

Pizza is delicious and their meatball sandwich is the best in Downey. I havent eaten there in awhile but take out is fast and delivery is great too.
