About Mama's Boy

Created by a couple of friends who wanted to bring a real NY style slice shop to the bay. #itsjustpizza

Located at 15 Grand Ave, Oakland, CA 94612, Mama's Boy operates as a pizza restaurant serving Oakland in California. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as restaurants, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

In Oakland, the busiest hours are Friday and Saturday evenings and any night with a big game, when quoted delivery times can stretch past an hour; ordering before 5 p.m. or picking up yourself avoids the wait. Delivery radiuses are small, often two to five miles, and a minimum order plus a delivery fee is normal, with a tip of a few dollars for the driver on top. Lunch specials such as two slices and a drink, or a personal pie, are the cheapest way to eat at most shops across California on weekdays. Toppings are priced per item and half-and-half pies are usually free to request. Gluten-free crusts and vegan cheese are increasingly common but often cost a few dollars extra, and cross-contact in a shared oven is standard unless the shop says otherwise.

Hours are published for 7 days a week. On most of those days it is open 11 am–10 pm. Hours in the United States do change around federal holidays and long weekends, so a quick call before a special trip is sensible. The listed phone number is (510) 400-5404. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. Its website is mamasboypizza.com, where you may find menus, price lists or booking options.

Customers rate it 4.5 out of 5 on Google across 512 reviews, placing it among the better-regarded pizza restaurants in Oakland.

Oakland is in California, on the West Coast, where the climate ranges from foggy coast to hot inland valleys, wildfire season can affect air quality in late summer, and traffic is the main thing to plan around. Traffic in Oakland peaks on weekday mornings and afternoons, so allow extra time then. Addresses read from the street number up to the city, state abbreviation and five-digit ZIP code; the map link on this page shows the exact spot.

I ordered a sausage pizza for takeout and it was super tasty. I was tempted to sneak a piece in the car before I brought it home because it smelled so good. They make pizza exactly the way I like it - thin crust with only three or less toppings. You can taste they use premium ingredients. My only complaint would be that the crust was a little chewy/tougher than I prefer, but that was only a minor distraction from an overall awesome pizza. They have an extra crispy option, I think I'll try that next. One more thing, the pizzas are humongous! One pizza could easily feed eight people or four really hungry people.

The pizza slices at Mama's Boy are an absolute standout, showcasing a slim, crisp foundation with beautifully blistered, airy edges that provide the ideal chew. The left slice pairs savory, robust meat toppings with a vibrant sauce and perfectly melted cheese, while the right slice elevates simplicity with fresh, creamy dollops of burrata, fragrant basil leaves, and a touch of chili flakes. When a pizzeria nails both hearty toppings and refined flavor combinations this perfectly, choosing just one slice is impossible, making the choice to grab both the only correct move. Best of all, the exceptional food is always paired with great service, making every single visit a fantastic experience from start to finish. Don’t forget the ranch and peppers!!

Went with a small group of friends. Everyone was satisfied with the service and the food. I had a mushroom slice (which I liked best) and tried the cheese pizza as well as the pepperoni one and thought were good. Overall it's a nice chill spot for a quick decent slice, fast service and plenty of seating to choose from (outside, inside or upstairs overlooking the street - where we chose to go)

By far the best pizza in the entire Bay Area! Better than Tony's in the city. Santos and de rest of the staff are extremely welcoming, helpful and attentive as they are hard at work at the same time. Lovely ambiance! Outside there's two tables if you like. Conveniently located three business down from Broadway and W. Grand on the right hand side. Inside you can sit on one of the two tables or on their long stand up counter. They also have upstairs seating as well! With many tables available. By far the best Neapolitan in the bay. Great undercarriage. No flop jalop here. They are giving New York a run for their money. As it's better than most in New York as well!! I highly recommend the burrata pie. I also had a slice of the cheese pizza, and it was superb! This time I ordered a burrata pie with half of it pepperoni with Mike's hot honey on the pepperoni half only. OMG! Heaven! A must try. Next time Im ordering a Grandma pepperoni Pie. No matter what Pie you order, get a slice of cheese you can have while you wait for your pie. Plenty of cold water available. As well as chili flakes and oregano and Parmesan. Please do yourself a favor and try Mama's Boy pizza. You will thank me when

Mama’s Boy is hands down the best pizza we’ve had in the Bay. We drove all the way from San Jose to try it and it was completely worth it. It honestly beats every place we’ve tried in NYC. We got slices of pepperoni, cheese, burrata, and white. We also grabbed the garlic knots and the chocolate chip cookie and everything was amazing. The owners were super kind and even let us add the garlic knots after we ordered without making us get back in line. Such a great experience. We’ll definitely be back.
