Nestled on the picturesque Playas de Tijuana pier, Martinelli New York Pizza has made a name for itself as a go-to spot for authentic New York-style pizza lovers. Offering a range of tantalizing options, customers rave about the Marinera pizza topped with salmon, shrimp, clams, and anchovies—a true seafood delight that retains its quality over the years, as Roberto Madrigal fondly notes. The dining experience is enhanced by a gorgeous beachside patio, perfect for soaking in the stunning views while enjoying a slice. Lynnze Ramirez highlights the warm and accommodating service, with the owner’s friendliness adding to the overall charm of the restaurant. For those seeking a taste of home, Nočnica Fee speaks to the authenticity of the menu, praising the tender, crisp crust that defines a genuine NY pizza experience. Despite its small size and modest appearance, the quality of the wood-fired pizzas has left many pleasantly surprised, as mentioned by Salvador Najar. With a consistent lineup of delicious dishes and an inviting beach atmosphere, Martinelli New York Pizza is not just a meal—it’s a delightful culinary retreat that captures the essence of both New York pizza culture and the laid-back Tijuana vibe. Whether for lunch, dinner, or a casual snack, it’s a place worth visiting again and again.

Excellent NY style pizza right on the Playas de Tijuana pier. The salmon salad is one I usually go to. This time had the marinera pizza, salmon, shrimp, clams and anchovies. Still good after all these years.

Such a great experience! The customer service was great! The owner is so kind, she speaks great English and definitely wants to make the customer happy. The pizza was delicious. The patio on the beach has a beautiful beach view. It's the perfect place for lunch, dinner, or a snack! Oh and.... THEY SELL HAWAIIAN PUNCH!

If you want to save some money there are cheaper places, but the pizza here is the real deal with a perfectly tender, crisp, New York style crust. Perfect spot for a homesick American.

Seriously one of the most delicious pizza places in Playas! We love the 5 meat! Everything tasted fresh, the large was more than enough for 2 people with left overs, and the woman working there was exceptionally nice! A must visit for exceptionally delicious pizza!
