Pomona has no shortage of pizza, but few spots mix pepperoni with paneer. 🍕
Along Arrow Highway, Pizza Crush is a locally owned neighborhood pizzeria where classic American pies share the menu with tandoori and malai twists.
Slices are sold at lunch, wings and calzones fill out the menu, and the recipe has reportedly stayed the same for 20 years. 😋
How Pizza Crush won Pomona’s hearts
Pizza Crush is a locally owned pizza restaurant at 644 East Arrow Highway in Pomona, and it carries a family-oriented feel. 🏡
The business took its current name in 2023 after operating as Valentino’s Pizzeria of Pomona, and the recipe has reportedly stayed the same for the last 20 years.
That mix of fresh branding and a time-tested recipe is a big part of its neighborhood pull.
The Pomona pizza lineup covers every craving, from Double Pepperoni and Hawaiian to a Supreme loaded with onions, olives, mushrooms, and bell peppers. 🍕
Then it takes a delicious turn with tandoori pizza, built with chicken or paneer, onion, bell peppers, jalapeños, and fresh garlic, which customers call a must-try. 🌶️
The menu also covers wings, calzone pockets, sandwiches, pastas, salads, and desserts, so one order can feed the whole family. 🍗
Pizza is sold by the slice from 11 AM to 4 PM, which makes it a favorite for a quick, filling lunch. 🕚
