Possibly the worst pizza I've eaten in the bay area, but there are many other reasons to avoid this place.

If this is the best pizza in San Jose, there is something seriously wrong with this place. The crust was that of a frozen pizza and I cannot stress this enough. Not to be outdone, it was as if the cheese, sauce and pepperoni were all competing with the crust on which individual contribution were most detrimental to the pizza as a whole, ending in a melee of mediocrity that left me feeling sad. The pizza was bad, the atmosphere was worse. This was largely an uneducated and crass crowd with an obvious criminal element as well. There was a bar filled with career alcoholics that seemed transplanted from the seediest of San Jose dive bars. Accentuating this scene were a number of bikers boisterously, if not obnoxiously, recounting some of their more colorful life experiences, including "We Kicked that Guy in the Face," and "I Totally Banged that Chick." Seeing the many children running around made me feel as though I must have been the subject of a practical joke. Why would anyone bring their children here?! The whole experience was bad.

Pros: Embodies the new America: fat, dumb, and ugly. It will make you feel better about yourself.

Cons: You will lose a certain amount of faith in humanity.
