Our Story

Welcome to Big Oven Pizza

Welcome to Big Oven Pizza
We take pride in being a locally owned and operated business that values family and community. Our journey began with a simple love for crafting homemade pizzas, which quickly grew into a passion that we wanted to share with everyone. We found ourselves traveling to Naples, Italy, where we discovered the essence of true pizza-making — fresh ingredients, simplicity, and a whole lot of heart. We brought that authentic experience back to San Diego, and now we can’t wait to share it with you!

Crafted with Care

Crafted with Care
Our pizza isn't just food; it's a craft. From our imported Italian brick oven that cooks pizzas at 800 degrees in just 90 seconds, to our dedication to using only the freshest ingredients, every slice tells a story. We use 00 Italian flour for that light, airy crust and San Marzano tomatoes for a rich, sweet sauce that’s become the heart of every pizza we make. We believe in keeping things simple, yet perfect — because that’s how pizza is meant to be.

A Slice of Italy

Bringing the essence of Neapolitan pizza to San Diego is more than just about great ingredients. It’s about honoring the tradition and love that goes into every pizza made in Naples. We wanted to capture that same attention to detail here at Big Oven Pizza. Whether it’s the crisp of the dough, the melt of the cheese, or the burst of flavor from our tomato sauce, we aim to give you an authentic Italian pizza experience right in your neighborhood.
