Pizza Express San Francisco, San Francisco

Pizza Express bakers love working in front of a crowd. The restaurant's pizza-making station sits directly in front of the storefront window, giving customers an up-close look at how each pie is made. With passerby watching, bakers knead and toss dough before smothering it with zesty tomato sauce and blanketing it with mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, black olives, and peppers. Such a spectacle can inspire ravenous cravings for a slice. And though the restaurant specializes in take-out and delivery orders, customers can always take a seat at one of the restaurant's tables to grab a quick bite or eat half of a take-out order and then later explain to the family that the box ate it.
