Leaning Tower - Oakland

Some of the best pizzas can be found in Oakland if not the entire Bay Area! I'm from the Middle West and find a good pizza place was a fight for the last seven years. This place is not disappointed. A common problem of other pizzerias in the bay is that they are excessively greasy or too cheesy or jump on blows and simply have bad crust. Leaning Tower gets a high degree on all these points. Very recommended.

Hands down the best pizza in the Bay! They have a ton of variety: classics like pepperoni, margarita, Hawaiian etc. but personally I go for the specialties: pear and Gorgonzola, roasted pepper and sausage (which is spicy and sweet), and my all-time favorite: burrata, pistachio, fig, and arugula. They also have Detroit style pizza which I had never had before but it 's almost like a deep dish except more sophisticated and more cheese! The owner is really passionate about getting the flavor right and it shows.

So far so good, literally a block from Lake Merritt, so far I haven't had any thing that will post for a bad review, there is a convenience store across the street, located in a great area cheese pizza is really good and pepperoni

Very good. Caesar salad was different--flavorful and colorful. Now I know to request greens only instead of the additional purple lettuce since I don't care for the bitter taste of purple lettuce

Great pizza we tried the pepperoni, margarita and the veggie one) and beer during happy hour. Sausage roasted pepper pizza rocks as well!!! Tad expensive though : . This place is literally 1 min from our house but it's a little expensive for our budget, but happy hour deal is not bad! Love the design outside and inside) of the place and the staff is very friendly and young!
