This is a short and sweet review. This is a pizza spot. Period. No ambiance, strictly take out. Oh, but the pizza! Having spent a few years on the east coast I know my pizza. This is pure pizza perfection. My go-to when ono for the absolute real thing. Nice folks too! They make a 'uge 3 pound pie and it's oily goodness brings me back to old times. If you want to eat real pizza made traditionally, then a trip to beautiful Kaimuki is in the cards!
This place is better than the Aiea one. Sauce is better. Pizza dough is better. My only knock on the Kaimuki Boston's. It closes too early. If they stayed open just an hour longer. It would be " I'm not cooking. I'm picking up" spot...
When in doubt Boston pizza is the way to go . Today for lunch wanted something light because tonight's our company Christmas party . So lots of food and booze lol . They also sell pizza by the slice . Service is always friendly and fast . Support local
We love Kaimuki Boston Pizza. The pizzas are always delicious and made to order. Our go to is the Big Red!! Always tastes delicious with fresh ingredients. I love that there's only one size. This location is always busy. The staff is always welcoming. They also have a punch card which has come in handy on several occasions. We're definitely repeat customers.
If u like spinach artichoke dip and garlic, the spinach garlic pizza is a must try. I absolutely love it! You can see the garlic chunks on the pizza and it bursts with flavor when combined with the ooey gooey cheese and smooth spinach flavor. And the pizza slices are huge!! Toppings are well distributed throughout the entire pizza which makes each bite equally as enjoyable. Ambiance: There are a few tables inside to sit and eat but there's only about 4-6 parking spots available outside. And it's shared with another restaurant so parking may be hard to find at certain parts of the day. Plus just a heads up the lot is right next to a super busy main street in Waialae Avenue. I suggest finding street parking in 10 ave if the parking lot is filled But other than that as mentioned earlier if u like spinach artichoke dip and garlic the spinach garlic pizza is a perfect combination of that in my opinion. 5 stars!!! :)
RIGHT NOW MY FAVORITE PIZZA IN HONOLULU !!! When it comes to pizza there are a few places I like depending on my mood. What I really like about Boston Pizza is that the crust is not oily but has a nice texture, flavor and crispness at the edges. The tomato sauce is not tangy and overpowering and the ingredients are fresh. I ordered the Special and the thing is huge. I'm a pretty big eater when it comes to lunch and I barely finished two slices. I ordered via Door Dash and everything was delivered without an issues.
Geeze, I can't believe the last time I was here was eight years ago. We decided to stop in and get a slice to go. You can order a whole pizza or buy by the slice. We looked in the showcase and they only had pepperoni and cheese. The hubby doesn't eat pork, so we went with the cheese. They give huge slices. It was actually two slices combined to make a slice. Not bad for $7. After you purchase the slice they'll reheat it for you in the oven. The slice was hot, cheesy and crispy from the thin crust. I'm not a huge fan of pizza, but this was just about perfect. I love their red pizza sauce. It had a mild flavor, a tad on the sweet side, and I could taste the onion and garlic. Their pizzas are made from scratch. I actually saw the worker toss the dough in the air. No wonder their pizzas are so good. I couldn't stop eating it.
