I think the show's format with the music choice + b-roll combo is unmatched. I'm tired of the ubiquitous license free hip hop/trap beats in all the other videos on KZbin these days. good pacing, lo-fi/jazzy beat in the background behind the dialogue is *chefs kiss*. This channel captures the SD essence. good work

I was born in San Diego in 1980 and lived in Kensington. when it comes to the best there is none other than Venice Pizza House on El Cajon Blvd. Since 1954. It makes me sad its not on your list. I recommend "The Works" or the #12 as it used to be referred to. I now live in Murrieta, CA and I will not hesitate to drive the 70 miles to get that pizza.

The problem I found in San Diego is no consistency in the pizzas. One is the pizza can be great for a little while then next can be not so great. Like when new owners take over and they try to maximize profits by skimping on ingredients while charging more for the pizza. It's like a hit or miss game.

I'd pick Bronx Pizza as my, 'I need a real NY slice', it looks spot on. I'd love an Italian beef from Lefty's, (Chicago has fantastic thin crust/square cut, super yummy). That bacon potato looked to die for, the pesto punch as well. When you described Squares, I can imagine that pillowy lightness vesseling those tomatoes and cheese and basil... If you're ever up north, Golden Boy delivers that amazing pillowy goodness with each bite a flavor bomb, clams and garlic. It's perfect. I love yummy food and I love pizza, right next to classic deli heros/hoagies/subs, whatever you like to call them. A great slice, Bronx Pizza for this show, can sit right next to a great sandwich with no problems whatsoever. They're best friends for life. 🤗👍🤌🌻

Sicilian Thing and The Pizza Standard are some of my favorite spots that weren't mentioned. The mashed potato pizza from URBN has a special place in my heart tho.

Lol, the conversational interactions in this video were superb, lol, 😁😁😭. Also, places 2,3 & 5 looked,👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽. I’d definitely try the 2nd one if it’s non-gmo et I absolutely spotted what looked like some handcrafted artisan beer at the 3rd location. I seldom drink beer but know plenty of amis who would love that. Overall, fun video hun, 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💕💕✊🏽

Gareth put parchment paper between layers of pizza, travel with an ice chest to prevent food poisoning!!!!

Yep, we had a few ice packs in the cooler we brought, but the parchment paper is a great idea!

Fun to see you and your best friends enjoying so much pizza in San Diego .I grew up in Connecticut where there are lots of neighborhood pizza places usually run by families .When I moved to San Diego in 1988,there were'nt any small neighborhood places .Thanks for making the video .Do you have to pay for all the pizzas or does the restaurants comp you?

I'm a San Diego native and Lefty's has been my favorite since they opened. But you can't compare Bronx and Lefty's...they're two different animals. I've only had leftovers from a togo order from Square and all the flavors were top notch and the caramelization of the crust was to die for(need to go have it fresh and hot). Porno Porchetta(Sp?) looked top notch...gotta try. Urban looked great too...but I've had bad luck at Basic(their crust sucked).

Volare on Barnett near Midway is a real historic treasure. Small family run and authentic. Lunch specials are a deal. Not a just a pizza joint it has picatta,marsala and seafood as well. Don't be in a hurry because it's made fresh when you order.
