Very nice atmosphere and service. Crust and tomato sauce are very high quality. I thought the mozzarella quality was a little low....I know they have "burrata" which Ill try next time. My pizza was slightly undercooked - the tomatoes didnt feel "cooked" and cheese was merely melted rather than being on the verge of browning. Very reasonable prices. I will definitely return soon. Edited review.... Three times now and my pizza simply wasnt cooked. The burrata which had so much promise was merely placed on the half-cooked pizza. Maybe in Europe they like luke warm burrata, but I find it gross. I realized whats going on.... They pre-bake the crusts, then top them when you order, then they simply warm it up in their wood-fired oven. They do this because they can pump more pizzas out per hour. Too bad they are sacrificing quality for quantity. Update.. Finally properly cooked. Rating upped.

Pizzas were very good. Beautiful thin base in a hot wood fire oven. They could improve their toppings to match the quality of the crust. For example, the pancetta was almost all fat and the mushrooms lacked flavor. Having said that, this is bar far the best pizza in Burlingame and on par with anything in the city. Much better than the over hyped Delfina across the road. Note to owner: My mushroom pizza was nothing like the photo youve posted on here. The mushrooms were small and lacked flavor (see photo posted here). They werent the beautiful big portabellos shown on your pizza. Ill also mention that our two pizzas arrived 20 minutes apart. Not great when you want to eat together.

Rise Pizzeria is a spectacular addition to Burlingame. Even though there are quite a few pizza restaurants on the strip already, this place stands out quite a ways. The pizzas are delicious, exceptionally well thought out, and there is a great variety. The sides are delicious (I love the chopped salad), and they keep it very health conscious by offering lemonade and iced tea instead of sugary sodas. The ambience is beautiful, casual, and very family-friendly, and you can really enjoy yourself here as its not a stuffy sit-down. This is my go-to in Burlingame....

Quick service. The food was good but not spectacular. Had the chop salad and I didnt really care for the red lettuce as it added a bitter taste to the salad. My wife didnt mind it but I didnt care for it. The pizza came out quickly and was so so. We ordered the potato and bruschetta pizza. It needed a little bit more meat flavor to the pizza. Maybe next time Ill try the meat pizza and see how it tastes and satisfies me. Overall good experience and Ill give the restaurant one more shot.

They have gluten free crusts that is actually pretty good. This is a self serve type establishment. There appears to be a private room for parties. Indoor and outdoor seating. Feels like a well run and thought out establishment. 7 out of 10 for this type of pizza. Im a new yorker at heart so I prefer simpler pizza as opposed to this type of California foo foo pizza but these are good.

Rise Pizzeria is the perfect place when youre craving pizza but want something nicer than Pizza My Heart, but quicker and less expensive than Pizzeria Delfina. Fresh ingredients, family-friendly but upscale setting, great pizza place all around. Rise deserves to become a Burlingame institution in the years ahead.

Please do not eat here unless want diarrhea Terrible pizza. I got sick eating here & coincidentally my neighbor too, the next day. The service is terrible. The place has really bad management. Whoever owns this particular store needs a lesson in management. Please do not eat here unless want diarrhea

Pretty mediocre version of Blaze pizza except 2x the price! Amazing cookie dessert and service is awesome but pricing isnt equal to the quality, especially the $4 basil pesto charge for adding a drizzle even if it is homemade. :( overall pretty average

The ambiance and service are great and the pizza is totally delicious. We had a margarita pizza on our first visit and were totally impressed. It came promptly and was just the right level of crisp. The iced tea is also great - not too sweet.

This is REAL Neopolitan pizza - thin crust, great flavors, not overdone or pretentious. A friend recommended it and Ill be back here for sure! Friendly staff, great ambiance, heated front patio, and a casual feel. LOVE IT!

Incredible pizza. Absolutely loved the crust and the sauce. Great variety of toppings. Service was a little slower than I like, but Ill chop that up to opening week learning pains.

Good pizza - literally got 3/4 the way through eating g before I remembered I was going to snag a photo or two. Fire pit is a nice addition

New pizza joint popular with locals, especially with families. The pies are very good, with nice chewy crusts.
