Mama Mia! That’s a damn good pizza pie! Just the way we love our pizza-crispy, thin crust with lots of “bubbles,” delicious sauce and generous toppings. Delightful staff-I love a business that thanks their customers for supporting them. Knowing the owners are Bills fans, I wanted to wear my Josh Allen Jersey when I picked up my pizza, but the weather was too warm. Had a spirited chat with the staff about the Bills and Eagles. I’m a die hard Eagles fan, but I adore Josh Allen. Hubby and I have not found many pizza places in Reno that are authentic New York style, but Smiling With Hope Pizza really reminded of us of the pizza we used to get in Philly and Jersey. Squisito!

In times of decaying customer service, we found a place that not only delivers incredibly tasty pizza but also excels in customer service.

I haven’t tried them all, but this is the best we’ve had in the Reno area. The crust is insanely good. The sauce is perfect, lots of tang and stands out for sure. The owner was very appreciative and made us feel at home. The menu is small and simple which is preferred. The prices are in line with other quality pizza shops, but the quality is top notch! We’ll drive from across town to visit again.

Change of ownership did not impact the AMAZING pizza.

Delicious pizza with a cause. Not to mention, they made top the 100 restaurants list on Yelp.

New to the area and picked up a mushroom pizza this afternoon. Quite literally may have been the best pizza I’ve ever had. Staff could not have been any nicer. Cannot say enough about this little spot.

If I’m rating strictly the pizza, it would be a 4/5. It gets an overall 3/5 for failing to answer the phone several times in a span of 30 minutes when trying to place an order over the phone for pickup. I get it, lunch time gets busy, but when arriving it was slow with one other customer. So 20 minutes later and we had our pizza. Not a big deal, but inconvenient when pressed for time. Will definitely return for the quality of pizza. Hopefully, the phones or online ordering are functional next time.

Outstanding food, people, and atmosphere. I can’t visit Reno without grabbing some SHP, the pizza is *that* good and *that* consistent, which is a testament to the care that the team puts into every detail. Thank you Smiling Hope ❤️

Fantastic NY Style thin crust pizza. Easily the best NY style pizza in Reno and for my money the best pizza of any style in Reno. Amazingly chewy, moist, yet light crust. I have eaten at many of the top pizza places in the US and Europe and would rank this pizza as the best NY style pizza I have had. If you value truly good pizza, do yourself a favor and eat this pizza
