Zelda's Original Gourmet Pizza

Love zeldas! I've been coming here for about 25 years and they never disappoint. Everything is consistently delish!

This spot is something special. The pizza let me tell you that crust is like nothing I've ever had and the ingredients on the pie are delicious. There were 5 groups waiting before this spot opened and the phone was no stop ringing. Place this old and this busy has to mean something. Give it a try

We 've been to Zelda 's several times, and we love this place. When you walk in, it 's like going back in time. The bar is the first thing you 'll see. It 's dark due to low lighting. To the left is the small dining room where you can sit in a wooden booth along the wall or at a 4-top table. There is an ivy-covered lattice type wall adorned with colored Christmas lights that separate the bar from the dining room. The servers are super nice and attentive as they keep your drinks full. The food, especially the pizza, takes a while, so don 't expect a quick meal. We started with the spinach salad so we could get our veggies. It was filled with fresh spinach, real bacon pieces, cheese, and a hardboiled egg. The pizza finally came, and it was worth the wait! We had the Everything with Anchovies. It 's my favorite pizza of all time. This deep dish pizza has an incredible crust that has a crunchy yet flaky, buttery texture. The chunky pieces of tomato ooze their juices when cooked and create a sauce atop the crust. Also, it 's these chunky tomato pieces that allow the anchovies to melt into the pizza and give it a wonderful umami that makes all the ingredients dance on your palette. If you want to try the best pizza in Sacramento (IMO), visit Zelda 's. You won 't be disappointed. They also do take out and order ahead for dine in.

Zelda's has been a staple in my families life since 1989 and we have never had a bad experience. The greatest pizza ever in Sacramento!

Great pizza. Salads are ample size wise and pair well with the deep dish pizza. Bar tender Erik is awesome. Fabulous service. Building could use a remodel but it's clean and functional.
