We shared a Capricciosa pizza here yesterday and the pie crust was delicate and crispy. The texture of the combination is also well orchestrated except that ours was missing the Tomatoes !!

Crust is good, hand tossed. But the ingredients unfortunately lacked major flavor. Tried the Margherita pizza. The Meatballs on the other hand were excellent

Pretty decent oven fired pizza with a puffy thin crust. Found within a food court setting.

This pizza was very disappointing. Especially after reading the reviews. In my opinion it was expensive and fell flat. The 4 of us ended up grabbing another pizza somewhere else to satisfy our craving.

Pizzeria la Bufala offers 9 different pizza options. (But don’t ignore the gnocchi.) We ordered 11 pizzas – all 9 of the menu pizzas and also the gnocchi. All of the food was great except the Margherita (Does this pizza ever taste good – why do pizzerias even offer it?) The hands down favorite was the gnocchi and an off-menu pepperoni pizza loaded with green and black olives. Oh my!!! We had 23 people huddled around 4 tables and everything was gobbled up. Highly recommended!!!

The food is amazing and the service is just as good. We had the pleasure of meeting and being served by the owner and he is funny and a great person. Would recommend this restaurant to everyone

Pretty reliable pizza place in Santa Cruz for good Neapolitan pizza. I’ve probably had a dozen of their pizzas and enjoy them a lot. I like to add arugula to my margarita, and they’re always good

Wow! Best cooked pizza I’ve ever had so far in Santa Cruz! However their toppings couldn’t be any worse! It’s an insult using such disgusting cheap pizza toppings on that beautifully cooked pizza crust. Improve where you buy your ingredients. Doing something right while doing something wrong… A nice compromise I guess…

Don’t be fooled by the fancy dish names. My “PROSCIUTO & FUNGHI” slice came out with cheap tasting tomato sauce, and DICED UP HAM BITS aka, LUNCH MEAT. The flavorless slice was a rectangle with bulky crust on both short ends. Disappointing!

I love this Italian establishment! I am not a pizza fan, and the pizza at La Busalla is off the hook delicious. The crust is thin and sauce is super tasty and light. All of the ingredients are fresh and organic, the salads are large portioned and heavenly. Words cannot describe the protons OMG. I highly recommend eating here, the ambience is great as well because it’s in Abbott Square. The owner is super kind and generous, will put extra cheese on your food if you like and not even charge. I’m a fan! My friends and I love the food and friendliness! 5 star all the way! Thank you Sandro and Team ! This Bella is HAPPY
