We stopped by House of Pizza and ordered a House Pizza (extra-large) and a pastrami sandwich—both were absolutely delicious! The XL pizza is huge and perfect for sharing, loaded with fresh ingredients that really stood out. The pastrami sandwich was just as impressive: flavorful, packed with high-quality pastrami, and very tasty overall. The atmosphere inside is welcoming and lively—it was packed when we went, which says a lot about how popular this spot is. One thing to note: it’s cash only, but they do have an ATM inside for convenience. All in all, fresh ingredients, great flavor, generous portions, and a nice vibe. Highly recommend!
Visited Saturday 2/3/24 around 1230 pm was a little busy had to wait about 5 mins for a table so not that long but when we were leaving it was definitely about a 20 to 30 minute wait. They did not sell any type of beer when we visited. Pizza is very good. The pastrami sandwich is my favorite. This place is considered a local gem in El Paso. Prices for lasagna with garlic bread as of writing this was $12.95. Large hot pastrami sandwich was $14.95 i added mushrooms for $2 more. Large 1 topping pizza (hamburger aka ground beef) was about $17 for a 14 inch pizza. One Soft drink is $2.75. Side of ranch is $1.50. 1 topping sausage sub sandwich was $6.95 definitely was majority bread and my least favorite thing so skip if you can. I would visit again but stick to pastrami, lasagna, or pizza. 5 people paid $72 before tip (see my receipt in the images).
We shared a Greek salad and a house special pizza. The staff is on point and greet you a friendly HELLO AND WELCOME ! IT WAS VERY CLEAN AND HAS NICE BATHROOMS.A Everyone worked harmoniously, . I highly recommend this place. Food was excellent!
I will order different items when I go there. I've had their meatball sandwich 2x and they were excellent. So,I'll try something else next time.
Best pizza I've had in El Paso, perfectly cooked, crispy crust, homemade sauce, fresh veggies... What more would you want? 2nd best Pastrami Sandwich I've ever had... Just wish they came with the little yellow peppers. Meat was moist and fell apart easily unlike some that are really chewy. Service was fast, waitress was really nice and knowledgeable. Would recommend to anyone coming to the area.
I love the Pastrami subs here. They are not greedy with the meat. The only draw back is it's 16.00. I know they've have the same menu for decades and it's working good for then. I just think they should add fries/ onion rings to the menu.
Wow the food is always amazing, I love everything on the menu, the owner makes you feel at home, always friendly and feels like you're at home, with family..
