Project Pie

Seriously the best pizza around for under $ 10 EXACTLY HOW YOU LIKE IT. I get garlic butter brush, 4 cheese with fresh motz, reg motz, ricotta, another cheese, mushroom, pepperoni, bacon, brussel sprouts and spinach. Perfection. Add a little pepper flake and parmesan… scrumptious.

By far my FAVORITE pizza place EVER! The food is always fresh… The ingredients are delicious and there is a huge variety of toppings available! You can pile your pizza sky high and they will never hesitate to keep piling it on! The people that work here are all extraordinary and deliver the highest level of customer service! I’ve been coming here for 2 months now and it’s become an addiction! You won’t find a better pizza ANYWHERE!
LOVE THE PLACE!
LOVE THE FOOD!
LOVE THE SERVICE!
Every time I am in Glendale I make it a point to stop here!

Great place. Subway-​type pizza station, where you choose what to place on your pizza.
Employees always helpful. The restaurant is exceptionally clean. Better than Blaze Pizza in organization and service. Feels like more authentic pizza. Although I will say their pizza crust is incredibly salty. The pizzas are personal so they don’t really fill you up THAT much, but are great if you could eat!
Would definitely recommend though.

Excellent value and delicious!
I custom made a number 2 and added several other toppings. Yum!
Also got the desert pizza free with checking in– Nutella, chocolate and banana. Yum again.
I’ll be back.

Ok– i have been here 2 times– Sunday afternoon and Thursday evening, and both times they mixed up my orders. How hard is it!!! Waited 35 min for a cheese pizza… Cone on it’s a pizza…
The pizza is not bad, cheap but OK.
Will not come again

This place is the bee’s knee’s baby!
I usually come here on my 30 min. breaks from work. They make it quick (which is a plus) and are very friendly towards there returning customers!
The friendly staff and delicious pizzas is what keeps me coming back!

I came here during a lunch break on a Sunday and I was surprised the line wasn’t very long, but I was very happy about it. For me, the pizza was a perfect size. I ordered the #5 + prosciutto.
Tip:
Already plan out what you’re going to order instead of figuring it out as they are making the pizza! The customer in front of me was just looking at the ingredients and asking about everything. It was a short line but it took awhile for me to order!

*Peek-​a-​Boo* into the resturant. *Zooming* in trying to focus on the menu posted on the right side of the wall. The font is quite small.
«Let’s tip toe in and if we like it… we can stay, but if we don’t we sneak out.» (That was the plan)
One foot into store and we’ve been spotted. *shoot!*
«Hello» greets a friendly voice. I reply, while studying the menu. Then I turn to the gentleman: «First time!»
We were guided through our pizza project. Not as hard as 4^th grade projects. But, quite simple like the subway sandwich project.
We chose red sauce. All the vegetables. Plus jalapeños cause we like the extra kick.
We were recommended a salad along with pizza. (1 pizza was enough for the 2 of us). So we ordered a small Kale Casaer Salad. It was amazing. (I used the dressing on my pizza too). Hahhaa.
1 refreshment. The soda machine was special. Wish I would’ve captured it. Not your typical name brand sodas. Delicious Cola! We had seconds.
The pizza was made quickly. We enjoyed it while sitting on stools and peering at the quotes on the wall. Glancing around and commenting on the interior. Pretty chill n cool place. I wouldn’t mind coming here with a girlfriend or even by myself.
The manager is very smiley and offers great suggestions. The service is excellent. No complaints here.
Will be back!

Good pizza, great price!
Easy to pop in and I loved the pizza. I noticed they also do have a gluten free crust offering.
Delicious. I will come back.

Not as many toppings as Blaze pizza, but still delicious! Project Pie’s build-​your-​own-​pizza is $ 7.65, which is currently $ 0.30 cheaper than the Blaze pizza in the Glendale Galleria.
I picked a «white» pizza with parmesan, mozzarella, ricotta, gorgonzola, chicken, sausage, mushroom, caramelized onion, onion, and cilantro as the toppings. I think it is very misleading that they call a pizza without (tomato) sauce a «white» pizza, which is printed at the bottom of their menus. I would think that when one hears «white» pizza, they expect a white alfredo-​like sauce instead of tomato sauce on their pizza, like Blaze. The misleading wording and the fact that Project Pie does not carry white sauce (they only carry 1 sauce, tomato), makes me sad.
Despite there being no white sauce or arugula, my pizza was still delicious, as I ordered many different cheeses on my pizza. The onion was nice and sweet and the cilantro added a pleasant fresh kick to my pizza. As usual, I was only able to finish ½ of my personal pizza, so I consider a pizza for $ 8 that can feed me for two meals to be awesome. My boyfriend also built a pizza, with all the meat options. The prosciutto was way too salty. He finished his entire pizza.
Overall, my boyfriend and I had a great experience here. The employees were friendly, there was no line when we went (around 11:45a.m. on a Saturday), and we didn’t have to wait long to get our pizza. I am glad we tried this place!

It’s fast, It’s fresh, and the prices are great.
I was hesitant at first, thinking that this was going to be like the Subway of fast food pizzas but after tasting their pizza I quickly changed my mind.
I thought the pizza crust was just thin enough and crunchy out of the oven. The pizza sauce was equally as good and not at all acidic or canned tasting. As for the toppings, everything was fresh and tasty.
Aside from The cheesecake factory this is probably the only other place you can get some decent food at the Americana.

If you’re on a budget and can’t afford to eat at Katsuya or Cheesecake factory, and are looking for somewhere affordable to eat near the Americana then I highly recommend Project Pie! I love this place!
Build your own personal pizza and they have a bunch of good HIGH QUALITY FANCY toppings like ricotta cheese (my favorite) and caramelized onions (marinated in brown sugar) with options like garlic butter on your pizza​.omg​.so amazing.
I was so indecisive but the girl who was working that night was so nice and patient with us! We were wondering how long it would be to cook the pizza but it was literally done in about 3 minutes!!!
A whole personalized pizza of your choice of toppings plus a drink is a little over $ 10. And it’s a huge pizza that you can eat half and take the other half home for another meal. So worth it.
I loved their inspirational environment with powerful quotes covering their walls and they had a good amount of seats and even had an ipad where you can take selfies with your friends! So «hip» of them. Definitely caters to a younger crowd, but families and anyone for that matter can take advantage of their yummy, affordable pizza.
I really appreciate the staff for being so kind and catering to us even though it’s not a fancy place. I felt like we were still treated like royalty. Thank you, Project Pizza! Juice N Jenn will return !!! :)

Another build-​your-​own pizza place! I like this location in the Americana next to Pinkberry and Jamba Juice and separate from the other high-​end restaurant that take up the center space in the shopping center.
There aren’t too many tables, which I think is actually a bad thing because most people would eat in while taking a break from shopping. I can’t imagine coming to Americana just to take out a pizza from here.
The toppings are very fresh and have a great variety, except they don’t have anchovies… Their cheese is super authentic! The mozzarella struggled to hold on to the rest of the pizza as I bit out of it. Their prices are reasonable and they are pretty quick in terms of service. I wish they had a list of their toppings not just on the beginning of the line but along the glass coverings like Subway does.
Service was friendly, and the pizza was cooked to perfection. The crust! Oh yeah… Will be back soon enough

stopped by for a quick bite
while shopping at americana
similar to blaze pizza and all those other DIY pizza spots
now popping up
i thought it was okay
but the flavors weren’t kind of uninspiring
the sauce was whatever
the crust was ok
the toppings were fine
so overall, a-​ok

I love thin crispy pizza. Repeat. LOVE. So, we decided to try this place because I’m on a semi-​vegetarian diet and my options were slim.
What we ordered:
–Kale Cesar — Litteraly, a box filled with kale pieces. Even the stems. Wasn’t a fan of that, but the dressing was good.
-#3 Pesto, tomato, artichoke, feta. Added garlic. White pie– If we didn’t add the garlic, then I don’t think the pie would have had much flavor. Crust was good and so yeah. Just an okay pizza.
–To drink? Boylan cane sugar soda. Not bad!
My suggestion? Skip the salad and get a pie to split!

OHHH YEAH
Walked in before seeing a movie for a quick bite
For $ 7.85 you can build your own pizza WITH UNLIMITED TOPPINGS!
That’s an AWESOME deal. I loaded mine up with several cheese and about 5 toppings and the crust was still crisp and didn’t get weighed down or soggy at all. A nice charr on the crust but it wasn’t too crunchy, just overall so good.
My husband piled on the toppings too and his wasn’t soggy at all. Both our pizzas were totally delicious and it was overall a fairly quick transaction.
All the ingredients tasted fresh and seemed to be really good quality.
And the different offering of soda was cool– the coke, cherry coke and lemonade flavors were my fav. Not the best root beer in my opinion as it had a weird taste, but I am picky when it comes to root beer. I did however enjoy mixing my flavors like I was back in elementary school!

I’m a huge fan of Pizza Rev in Burbank (same build-​your-​own pizza concept) so was very curious to see how Project Pie would compare. The pizza crusts were equally delicious but a few reasons they get a 4 as opposed to a 5. First, they don’t spread the sauce that well and leave half of the pizza dry. Also, when the lady was making our vegetarian pizza, she put her gloved hand in a bunch of prosciutto and we immediately said we didn’t want that. Instead of changing her glove or using her other hand, she dipped it right into the veggies. I wish they used serving utensils for the different ingredients to avoid cross-​contamination!
I also had the kale salad with poppyseed dressing which was very fresh & flavorful!!! Lots of yummie ingredients like sunflower seeds, cabbage, cheese, etc.
They have a nice ambiance (indoor and outdoor seating), a great sugarcane cola machine (LOVE their sodas), and great service. The pizzas are large and one pizza is the perfect amount for 2 people who are light eaters. The price is just 4 cents less than Pizza Rev ($ 7.95 vs $ 7.99).
Parking in this area can be a bit of a nightmare. There’s a garage on Maryland & Harvard that has 90 minutes of free parking and is less than 2 blocks from the Americana where this restaurant is located — most Americana-​goers don’t know about this garage so you can easily find parking there!

«Only dead fish swim with the current,» reads the wall. Strangely, anchovies are nowhere to be seen.
Project Pie is the latest build-​your-​own pizza establishment in an increasingly crowded stream of similar concepts that opened yesterday in the Americana of Glendale, offering a set price of $ 8 for a pizza with your choice of toppings in addition to salads, drinks, and notably dessert pizzas.
Progress, it seems, is the theme at Project Pie. Walls are littered with letters delivering inspirational messages about trial and error. A door to the kitchen actually reads ‘trial and error.’ While I understand the sentiment and that they likely refer to the process of building your own pizza, I’m not sure it’s something best put above a door to the kitchen.
Or perhaps it refers to the current (see what I did there) state of these pizza establishments, that this (this!) is the latest and greatest iteration. The site after all tells me that the founder also started Mod Pizza and Pie-​Ology before Project Pie ‘the next generation; the culmination of James’ experience and learnings.‘
Where Project stands out is, a bit randomly, the crust.
This version has pared down some of the toppings a bit but offers others I haven’t seen at similar concepts. Welcome are roasted Brussels sprouts and prosciutto.
Missing is fresh mozzarella.
Project Pie doesn’t have some of the zanier toppings of competitors, but if you’re going for something premium, you’re going to need better cheese.
Oh well, maybe the next iteration.

Went here for a quick dinner after shopping at the Glendale Galleria. It’s pretty new and still has to work out a couple of kinks here and there, but it’s not bad. The place is clean and has a modern feel to it. You walk in and there’s a menu to the right before you get the the pizza making station. You can choose from their pizza menu or be creative and build your own! We decided to choose their #8 and a kale salad, since I was way too hungry to build my own.
After they take your order, they begin making your pizza and you can watch as they do it. After your pizza is ready to be put in the oven, they hand you parchment paper with your order written on it to hand to the cashier.
We got our pizza in a just a couple of minutes and started devouring it from hunger. It was pretty good, but nothing too special to me. The #8 had brussel sprouts, proscuitto, white sauce, and cheese on it. We also added mushrooms to it. I liked the crust though– light and crispy. Our kale salad, however, still hadn’t come out so the boyfriend just asked them to see where it was. They were still making it so that came out in just a few minutes after we asked. The kale salad was pretty barren and plain. It came with a huge amount of kale and just a tiny portion of everything else. The boyfriend thought he was eating grass, so I’m not sure if I would eat this again.

Project Pie just had their soft opening and I was able to get in. The restaurant is a great addition to the Americana. Project Pie is part of a new wave of build-​your-​own pizza shops that are starting to get popular. The concept of Project Pie, which I happen to be a fan of, is that every pizza is a small personal pizza with unlimited toppings in any combination for the flat rate of $ 7.95 (or $ 6 for a cheese only). The menu has 8 different specials which you can get by itself or customize as you wish. You start off by telling the server what kind of pizza or base you want. Then you walk down an isle like Subway or Chipotle and add or subtract toppings.
THE ORDER
#2 — 5 out of 5 — Pepperoni, italian sausage, crumbled meatballs, mozzarella, red sauce, garlic ADDED bacon, mushrooms and jalapeños. If you love salted meats on your pizza this is the way to go. This may be one of the best personal pizzas I’ve had. the dough is thin… thinner than a typical thin crust but no quite Napolitanian. I personally liked it. It came out of the oven with a good consistency, firm enough to hold the toppings yet not overly crockery. The toppings were all quality assorted salted meats… really hard to go wrong with this one.
#7 — 3.5 out of 5 — Prosciutto, caramelized onions, mozzarella, parmesan ADDED crumbled meatballs, tomatoes, mushroom and jalapeños. This was a much more subtle pizza. Maybe I fell in love with the #2 and didn’t take the #7 for what it is. The caramelized onions added a very nice sweetness but I found the prosciutto a little more subtle than I would have preferred. Also, the prosciutto, as it tends to get when cooked, was a touch gummy. I still enjoyed the pizza, thought I am likely to give another pie a try next time I visit.
OVERALL
Project Pie is a great pizza option if you are at the mall and want to grab a meal (especially lunch). The pies are quality and come out in minutes after getting popped in the oven. This may not be a place I want to take a family of 4, but I found the portion great for myself. I finished the whole thing and felt satisfied, my fiancé had half and felt great. The DIY aspect and flat rate are great selling points… I’m sold.
