Monstros Pizza? : r/ChicoCA – Reddit
Monstro’s is the most overrated pizza in Chico. People hype it up because it’s never open but it’s just way too thick and underbaked.

If you like your pizza thick like a pie and packed with flavor, Monstro’s is it.
It’s not greasy like most pizzas in Chico… just saucy, cheesy, and made with quality ingredients you can actually taste. Two slices filled me up, and it even reheated beautifully the next day in the oven
..still fresh, not stale.
Now, the ordering and carryout experience? A little… quirky. You have to call in your order (no online ordering), and hours are only posted on Facebook. It’s cash only, feels kind of like a secret pizza drop. Weirdly iconic.
I love Bodega, but when I want a pizza that’s hearty, satisfying, and worth every penny, I go to Monstro’s. You’re supporting a small, local business run by a guy who’s got total meme energy, funny, friendly, and clearly passionate about what he does.
Next time, I’m definitely trying the spaghetti.

I love this place, maybe I’m a bit bias because it’s classic Chico and doesn’t share the gentrification vibes that so many restaurants that have opened downtown or nearby in the past 10 years have had.
Monstros has a lot of great memories for people, especially pre-Covid when Monstros hosted punk shows. Sadly COVID has kind of changed Gregg’s business model, but it hasn’t changed Gregg or the great pizza he makes there.
People are always asking how you even get pizza from there cause it always looks closed. It often is closed, but if you follow Monstros on Facebook then when Gregg *does* open, that’s how you’ll find out. He usually posts when they’re opening a few hours in advance and he’ll mention if anything’s on special that day. Then you just call the number when they open (sometimes you may have to redial a few times cause it’s a landline that can get tied up by others racing to order their pie), place your order, he’ll take down your contact info and either call or text you when the pie is about 10mins from coming out of the oven so you can make your way down to pick it up.
In some ways, Monstros pizzas are the personification of that gooey cartoon pizza that always looked so appetizing to me. It’s thicker than New York style, the cheese is always perfect, the pepperonis weren’t too spicy and there are plenty of them, and the sauce (quantity and flavor) were always just right.
Basically in the post-covid world you show up, with cash, and pay at the door in exchange for the pie. Pretty simple but there’s no more going inside and there’s no pickup window at the joint, so you have to do this hand off.
This place will always rank in my top three pizza places, more often than not it’s my #1. Some people think it’s ridiculous what you have to go through to get one, and that it’s not worth it, I think it adds character to the experience and the pie is worth it every time.
But that’s just me.

This is some of the best pizza I’ve ever had. The sauce is rich and fresh, the cheese is melty, the pepperoni is full of flavor, basically everything was top on it. The only potential shortcoming was the crust since it was plain and unflavored, but it was still fluffy and soft and good to dip into marinara sauce.
It’s as close to perfect pizza as I’ve ever had before. It’s a challenge to catch this place open most times (seems to only be open once a week and lately it’s been on a short hiatus), but it’s worth scouring their Facebook page to find the opportunity.

During my recent visit to a local pizza place, I ordered a medium-sized double pepperoni and jalapeno pizza. Initially, I was pleased with the abundance of cheese, which added a tasty touch. However, my excitement quickly turned to confusion as I found what appeared to be pepperoni and carrot slices on my pizza. It turns out the carrots came from the canned jalapenos, leaving me less than impressed.
The overall experience gave off an odd vibe, similar to a secretive transaction you might see on the street corner, where cash-only deals are the norm. It reminded me of a style of pizza that wasn’t quite what I was looking for. I prefer the simple and delicious thin-crust pizzas from other places in town.
In summary, the pizza place didn’t deliver the classic pepperoni and jalapeno pizza I was expecting. Super nice guy though.

This is the best pizza in all of chico . When they are open.the days and hours can change from time to time, but it is well worth it. Call in orders only. If u haven’t tried this place yet, you are missing out. Do not let this pizza place go bye without ever stopping. You will regret it.

What words can I put to how delicious this pie was delicious, delicious delectable.No, that does not tell you how good this pizza was. It’s like I reached nirvana in the religion of buddhism. This truly is the best pizza in Chico. If you have not tried it you are missing an opportunity that may change your life. The prices are AMAZING! only 16 dollars for a medium pie!!!!!!!! Plus tip of course. Always remember to support your local busi esses. The owner was an amazing man fast service, great cook.
Cheesy and messy just how I like my pies.

The very best pizza I have ever eaten…by a mile! Greg, the owner makes your pizza however you want it. (We always do take out because the place has zero atmosphere. BUT WHO CARES ABOUT ATMOSPHERE WHEN THE PIES ARE SOOO GREAT!)
I’m serious about my pizza and have eaten pizza from all over the USA . Tell Greg to make you a “Deane style” just like the ones we buy. Dang! We ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ this pizza!

I’ve lived in Chico for 10 years and I’ve been hearing about the elusive monstro’s all along. I work in the restaurant industry and I can’t make it to them most night that they’re open.
Tonight I called, 40 minutes before close, to make a pickup order. When they asked if I had ordered in the past, I told them no and they told me to call a phone number they gave me. It was the number for Woodstocks Pizza. Wow.
