I'm a big pizza lover and saw this establishment on my way to a live music show at St. Rocks. I was walking so parking wasn't an issue. I was the only customer in there, so I got served right away. I ordered just one slice with sausages, garlic and spinach as additional toppings for a price of about $6. The slice was decent sized, not too small or big though but filled me up(wasn't that hungry). Taste wise it was above average with quality ingredients. I ate at the restaurant so I delete one star for lack of ambience, small seating area and no bathroom(it's possible they let you use the staff one in the back but I didn't bother asking). I would do a repeat visit and buy a whole pie. Food: 4 (weighted 2x) Service: 3 Location/ambience: 3 Value: 4 Overall rating: 4.5 Recommended.

This had been on my list to try for a while due to glowing recommendations from friends. We decided to finally try it out on New Year's Eve and we were beyond impressed! First off, our order was ready in 20 minutes! For reference it normally takes an hour or two in Los Angeles. They were quick to update us on the delivery status too. Especially on a busy holiday like NYE! Service was not only quick but super friendly as well. The food was delicious as expected. We ordered the Hawaiian... and I know some people feel very strongly against pineapple but I personally love it. Their version of it seemed to have a little extra oomph. I would definitely order it again but I'm curious to try other types of pizza here too. Either way we will be back! Can't speak to the ambiance just yet since we ordered out but maybe next time I'll update.

Tried Fat Tomato on a whim because the hubs and I like the restaurant name. We got a large pepperoni pizza, hot wings, the spaghetti, and garlic knots. The pizza is good, I enjoyed the cheese blend and the pizza sauce. Both sons happily had a couple slices. I am a BIG fan of hot wings and their hot sauce is quite good. I also appreciate that the wings are oven baked and not fried. A dip in their ranch dressing is perfection--I dream about these wings. My son had a craving for spaghetti, but preferred the pizza over the noodles. I liked the simplicity of the spaghetti and the tomato based sauce, however, I do wish that it came with more sauce. I definitely prefer my spaghetti to be swimming in sauce. The garlic knots are nice and dough-y with a touch of saltiness and just the right amount of garlic flavor. These are good alone or can be dipped in a side of marinara. I actually dipped the knots in the leftover buffalo and ranch sauce from my wings. This was truly the best decision I had made all meal long. We're definitely adding this spot to the dinner rotation.

Above average very good pizza...better than big chains. ............. ......... ....

Love this place! In my top3 (prob #1) NY STYLE pizza in the southbay! The crust is amazing, the toppings are quality and they are not stingy. It is not cheap, but in my opinion it is worth every penny. I usually order the works (light sauce and minus the shrooms) and my wife orders the veggie pie and we love this place. I have never been inside because i usually order delivery or carryout, but we have never been disappointed. 100% would recommend

Ordered a bunch of pizzas and appetizers for a little beach picnic day and it was perfect. I'm a big fan of bbq chicken pizza (don't judge) and they did it right. We also tried the green monster and that was a hit. Solid pepperoni for those picky kids too. The kids also liked the cheese ravioli and mozzarella sticks. It was an online order placed the night before and it was all hot and ready by the pick up time. Would come back! One funny thing I noticed is the sizing for the pizza. Instead of small, medium, large, they just start at medium, large, etc. to make it sound like you're getting more pizza for the price. These are mind games. Just go by inches to be specific. But good pizza though!

Took a chance on Fat Tomato for a late night delivery. Glad I did. Not only was delivery speedy (how did they cook such a delicious pizza that fast), but it arrived at the perfect temperate. This is a local chain (but with a location in Seattle???) and Fat Tomato is known for making most everything -- their dough, sauce and dressings. You can absolutely tell. The pizza tastes fresh and doesn't have that heavy mouthfeel during or after you eat it. Pepperoni is the way to go. And they are ample with the servings. If you love pepperoni and thinner crust, you are sure to enjoy what they are serving. This is New York style pizza, which is exactly what I love. Nice and floppy with the perfect amount of sauce and toppings. They also offer a cauliflower pizza crust, and a crust that is gluten free. They have sandwiches, pasta (ravioli and spaghetti), meatballs and wings as well. I look forward to coming back.
