9578 Lower Azusa Rd, Temple City, CA 91780 · Pizza restaurant, Delivery Restaurant, pizza_restaurant

A long-running, highly affordable Temple City pizza institution praised for generous portions, fresh pizza, wings, pasta, and friendly service, though the small dining room and a few serious cleanliness complaints warrant attention.

The verdict

Pizza Cart delivers strong food quality and attentive service that keep customers returning across decades, with affordable pricing and generous portions driving loyalty. The casual, compact setting lacks polish and distinctive appeal, while food safety concerns prevent a higher grade despite otherwise dependable execution.

About this restaurant

Pizza Cart feels like the kind of compact neighborhood pizzeria people discover through family, friends, and repeat delivery orders, then keep in rotation for years. Reviews describe a cozy room, cheerful counter staff, quick pickup, and a local following strong enough to inspire drives from nearby cities. One customer’s useful shorthand is that the small storefront “packs a big taste,” though the space is better suited to casual meals than lingering.

What to order

• Pizza, especially jumbo and pepperoni varieties
• Spaghetti and pasta dishes
• Hot or mild wings

What diners say

Things to know

• The dining room is compact, and several reviews imply takeout may be more comfortable than eating in.
• One phone-order complaint describes a prolonged hold and difficulty cancelling; it appears isolated but signals possible peak-time strain.
• Two reviews report cleanliness or handwashing concerns, including stained fixtures and food-handling worries; these are serious minority reports rather than the dominant pattern.
• There is no restroom reported in one review, which may matter for families or longer dine-in visits.
