I got a kale and chicken pizza- it was great! A little spicy, lots of toppings, interesting pine nuts added. A unique pizza that hit home! The bottom wasn’t burnt but there were burnt crumbs, so it seems like maybe they could clean their ovens more frequently. As someone who grew up on the east coast, I approve this place.

If you New York style pizzas (very thin crust), this is the place. They are on the pricier side but it is well worth the extra bucks. The pastas, salads and desserts are good but nothing special. This location is in downtown San Mateo which means street parking can be difficult. My suggestion is to park in the public parking garages. Both indoor and outdoor seating are available. Definitely go for the pizzas.

Audrey was very friendly and efficient as both a hostess and server. I ordered olive oil and vinegar with sourdough bread along with the Michi combo pizza. Both were very delicious and the bread was hot and fresh made... So be careful you might burn your fingers with that lol... The pizza was very flavorful and of course old world brick oven cooked... I was very excited about that fact... And the price was reasonable especially for the high quality food that you get. Overall, I would highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone who gets the chance.

Ordered a family-sized chicken Caesar salad at $25 + tax only to discover it was the size of a regular clear plastic to-go container. In addition, they left out the chicken and I had to return to the busy downtown location on Father's day evening to have them correct the order. 15 minutes for them to add the missing chicken with no apology.

UPDATE: manager reached out to apologize/try to resolve issue. Haven't gone back yet... Every Flipping Time. So there is one pizza that my mom really likes at this place. That's why we go. Everytime she orders it, we specify no parsley. Everytime it still comes with parsley. It doesn't matter what proactive steps are taken. This time there was even a note on the receipt to have it inspected by a manager. Either they didn't check or didn't care. #fail. Thankfully it's just a flavor thing and not a food allergy issue... Photographic evidence included.
