Corey's Pizza traces back to pandemic-era home baking, with pies sold out of the back of a pickup truck before the operation found a permanent home in the Mission, in the former Turner's Kitchen space. The approach draws on Staten Island pizza culture: quality ingredients, consistency, and no shortcuts.
Pies come with sturdy bottoms and a thin, light-yet-crunchy crust with a notable snap. The Vaccaro — topped with pesto, garlic cream, and ricotta cream-bombs — is a standout whole pie, while the massive slices, each about a quarter of a pie, work as a standalone snack. The space has a couple of tables and counter seats, but it's built for takeout as much as for sitting down.
The pizza has built a word-of-mouth following in the neighborhood, with regulars pointing to its New York-style authenticity as the draw.
