The owners of Pizza Amore are amazing! They came in on their day off to make pizzas for our team dinner. We easily fed 42 starving teenage boys who left stuffed and happy! The pizza is great and we love their new location. We definitely will use them again.
You don't go to Pizza Amore for the atmosphere. You go for the pizza. The double pepperoni is reliably good, and the pizza with feta, tomato, basil, and red sauce is tough to beat. We get a 16" double pepperoni, and a 12" of the feta, tomato, etc., and that's enough for four of us. It's not the series looking pizza, but all the flavors are always good. They have yet to disappoint!
I saw reviews and posts for this pizza place on social media and thought I would give it a try for a slice. I got a pepperoni slice and my wife got a pepperoni mushroom slice. The slices are huge; maybe a tad too big. The crust was bready and sweet. It did not taste like a NY pizza crust, which should be crispy on the outside with a chewy interior. The crust had a store-bought pizza crust taste. And for me that's a big disappointment. The sauce was too sweet. And the cheese quality had a plastic-like consistency and bland flavor. The pepperoni was okay though. And they did use fresh mushrooms. I have had NY pizza many times. Sadly, pizza at Pizza Amore doesn't come close enough to the real thing.

The customer service is amazing 👏! Even better, the food was incredible. My son ate part of my wings and the entire 28" pizza was devoured within 30 minutes. Cudos to this family owned restaurant!
Hands down the best pizza in Escondido. Great sauce, delicious crust, and very reasonably priced. Ditch the Hot-N-Ready and support these guys for the same price. Their carry out special pepperoni is only $7.50. Owners are very kind, friendly and accommodating. They always go out of their way to make us feel welcome. My kids and I love their pizza and this place.
