Great food - Edit
I have been ordering from cruzer for years now - both at their old location in East Hollywood and now from their ghost kitchen in echo park.
Read moreI am a firm favorite of the buffalo chicken pizza, their garlic mozzerella breadsticks are so addictive. I also really like their Caesar salad, and their sandwiches are yum especially when hungover!
The vegan cheese they use can be a bit sticky but as someone else mentioned whack it in the air fryer and it takes that away a little. Oh and if you like ranch with your pizza you are in for a treat!
Pros: Good comfort food , Consistent , All vegan

air fryer takes it to next level - Edit
when i first tried cruzer at their old location i wasn’t totally wowed, but since they moved to the ghost kitchen near me i have been ordering from them frequently. i discovered that a few minutes in the air fryer (i do 7-8 mins at 400 degrees) takes away the sticky mouth feel of the daiya cheese and makes this a perfect vegan pizza. the indian kima is my favorite.

👻 kitchen—order online to skip the wait - Edit
Came here with my friends hoping for a sit-down experience, but alas they downgraded to a ghost kitchen so it’s pick-up. We ordered the Hawaiian pizza and QuarryGirl.com pizza. Both were pretty good, but I wasn’t blown away. Kinda tastes basic like a Domino’s pizza… Maybe a tad better? Still good for a fully vegan pizzeria though!

Amazing salad, cheese sticks, buffalo chicken pizza - Edit
Wasn’t up for cooking so decided to try this place out. Definitely didn’t let us down. Pizza was really good great chikn, cheese sticks could be a bit more cheesy but still amazing. Loved the Greek salad

fine, not great - Edit
The pizza we had here was good enough. The atmosphere was odd, though. Totally empty, and the only staff there was pretty gruff. Maybe this is better as a take-out spot.

Pizza by the slice! - Edit
Finally Cruzer’s is officially offering their delicious pizza by the slice. Take an extra slice home for later as their crust crisps up nicely when reheated. #Veganuary

Favoring vegan pizza in LA. - Edit
These guys have been my fave vegan pizza spot for years now. Not only is it the best tasting and most consistent, it’s also the cheapest vegan pizza you can find in a city where every other place is selling theirs for over $30.

Philly Cheesesteak Pizza - Edit
My fave pizza is their Philly cheesesteak. It reminds me of when Domino’s used to sell it. The desserts and knots are great too.

Not great - Edit
I should have known this pizza wouldn’t be good when I saw they use Daiya cheese. IMO it’s the worst vegan cheese and sticks to your teeth. It seemed like they used store bought vegan meat substitutes, as well. Overall very subpar and overpriced for essentially grocery store quality pizza.
Read moreCons: Expensive, Sticky daiya cheese, Flavorless

The vegan cheesy breadsticks alone is good enough. I had the Jamaican vegan pizza it was good.

Pretty good - Edit
Normally I prefer pizza with real cheese because I don‘t like the taste of vegan cheese. Since I was in companion with vegans I also had a vegan cheese pizza, surprisingly tasty.

Finally! A vegan pizza with a thick crust! Toppings are delicious and fresh, and the tiramisu is FIRE.

Good pizza, but not the best - Edit
If you're looking for a nice vegan pizza with lots of options to choose from then check out Cruze. I had the Hawaiian pizza and liked the texture and taste of it #Veganuary

The cheese breadsticks are life-changing - Edit
I just have to say the pizza is pretty good, but the breadsticks are the absolute best cheesy vegan breadsticks I’ve ever had. Add them to your order, they’re amazing!!!

Pizza to die for! - Edit
If you visit L.A. you definitely have to stop by Cruzers Pizza and try this amazing pizza! I have been to other restaurants in L.A. that offer vegan pizza, but nothing compares to this, not even any vegan pizza I ever tried in Europe. My personal favorite is the buffalo chicken pizza but the Jamaica pizza is also highly recommendable. The staff is very friendly and helpful, but the location is so small and has no restroom, so eating it there isn't that comfy. Luckily they have a delivery service as well!
Read moreCame back 5 years later and I am delighted to see that they expended their location, and the pizza is still as good as I remembered it!

Okay I guess - Edit
100% vegan pizza with vegan cheese and meat alternatives. Besides pizza they also serve sandwiches, pasta, appetizers, salads, desserts and sides. Personally, I didn't like the vegan pizza cheese. The pizza was also too greasy for me.

Bad customer service - Edit
Their pizza may be good, but that gets overridden if you're greeted by an employee or owner that treats you like an unwelcome inconvenience.
Read moreSince I'm deaf, I gesture or write in order to communicate. I gestured, and he just stared blankly at me. I then wrote down a question and he refused to write down his reply four times - speaking even after letting him know I'm deaf - then finally hung his head, rubbed his eyes and wrote "vegan", which didn't answer my question. My only question was "what brand is your chicken and sausage?", which should really already be on the menu instead of "vegan chicken" or "plant based sausage". I try asking again, and he frustratingly shrugs his shoulders.
No sign of good customer service in sight. He doesn't ask me anything, not even what kind of crust I want, but by this time I'm too aghast to ask any more questions. I almost walk out. He then proceeds to smile and chat with the next customer.
Next time, he should be more welcoming towards differently-abled people.
Pros: Good pizza
Cons: Ableistic, discriminatory behavior

Fantastic pizza! - Edit
This place is amazing and consistently makes great pizzas. They offer a gluten-free crust which is really good and actually holds up well the next day. They're generous with the cheese which is the best and pretty rare. Staff is always friendly. Definitely recommend!!

Mediocre - Edit
Pizza is sufficient, but not great. Anyone can make this pizza at home with dough, plain sauce, and Daiya cheese. It’s nothing special and not worth the trip. Go to Hot Tongue if you want great vegan pizza.
