I've been coming here for over 30 years. Still, the best pizzas in the tri-valley area (with Zachary's/San Ramon) being a close 2nd. Gave 4-stars this visit because our pizza toppings were a bit "cheap" (zucchini and canadian bacon) and they weren't cooked enough (they were cool to the touch/taste). The pizza itself was a bit underdone too. Disappointing but still tasty anyway. We got there just before the (Alameda Cty.) fair-crowd. So, there was a line out the door when we left. Good timing on our part.One other thing. We ordered a mushroom saute for an app. It arrived after the pizza (?). I saw it sitting on the food counter for about 10-minutes before it came over . I complained to my waitress, so she (very nice of her and the right thing to do), didn't charge for the app. She "said" the kitchen was backed up (but the place wasn't very full at the time and I saw the app sitting on the "outgoing food counter"). So, she lied about what happened to it. Not that important, since she comp'd us that dish anyway.Edit, two years later. Took my GF to Gay-90s, as she used to live in Pleasanton about 10-yrs. ago and loved their pizza.The pizza, as usual, was stellar (we had a 3-topping small pizza). Toppings were generous and tasty but it did take 60 minutes from the initial order (they weren't that busy with dine in customers but maybe take-out was busy? We were sitting outside and could not see take out orders). We also ordered "garlic-bread" (which used to be free). Well, now, it's $4.95 per order. This tasted neither garlicky, nor tasty. It was (basically) a toasted/dry 1/2 loaf of cut sourdough bread. But it had absolutely NO taste. Very disappointed. Never complained to the waiter because I was on a date. Usually, the garlic bread has plenty of garlic and not dry (it used to have both a butter and/or olive oil finish in/on the bread w/lots of garlic). This had neither. I will never order that again (especially, for 5 bucks). I deducted a star for both the garlic/non-garlic bread and the exceptionally long wait (60-minutes is unacceptable - especially since dine in wasn't full).Revisited here [2/2024] with GF and just had the pizza, which was stellar, again. Still the best pizza in the Tri-Valley. We did lunch this time and ordered a half and half small pizza, which came out quickly and tasted excellent. In the past, I/we have ordered a starter/app and didn't have 'room' for the pizza, so, this time we just ordered the pizza and we both ate it all. Gave it and the service 4-stars [would have given 4.5 stars]. Our waitress was good but seemed distracted, hence, the 4-stars instead of 5. Interestingly enough, Zachary's is now across the street [moved from San Ramon]. So now, there's a bit more competition for G-90's. I still prefer G-90's over Zachary's but they are getting closer [almost a tie for pies].

Gay Nineties has been here for decades and gets top marks as the downtown family pub & pizza joint. Some of there better dishes include prawns provincial and their cob salad! I think those can compete with the much higher priced haut cuisine downtown, but their bread & butter is their bread and butter, that is their french bread and pizza crust, very delicious! And if you need a place for a bigger family or team gathering, it’s the place to go for inside or beer garden seating. Also they have Stella on tap, which is my favorite. And you can’t beat their prices anywhere downtown. ???Kid-friendliness: Great place for team parties/ Celebrations!

Not burned, but dark brown and not tasty. And cold after Door Dash left it on my porch and didn't ring the doorbell. Maybe a setting on DoorDash app to not ring doorbell? But I don't have DD app - I ordered on web.

My first time here. Cheese bread was ok. Then the pizza came. Ordered thin crust house special and another pepperoni. It's was absolutely delicious! The cheese was awesome. Quality ingredients for sure. New spot for the family for sure! ?

Food was ok. Too much cheese on the pizza for me. Minestrone soup was under seasoned. The bread was fresh, hot, and delicious! Service was great!

I grew up in Pleasanton and absolutely love gay 90s pizza.Sadly I returned to the Bay Area for the first time in a few years for my mother‘s funeral. After which we had everyone get together at gay 90s for pizza because my mom loved it there. The staff was very friendly, warm and accommodating. It was exactly what we needed it to be. I’m very happy with the service and I’m very grateful that they provided a space.As a sidenote, I went to high school with Connor and I am really happy to see that he is still running such a great restaurant.Keep up the good work guys. Hope to have some of that delicious pizza again in the future.

Pizza was absolutely delicious and the restaurant atmosphere was awesome. It’s like you are going back in time.Wheelchair accessibility: Not the friendliest for wheelchairs. The tables and booths are too close when people are sitting at the tables. I couldn’t even get past the first table and had to wait for a booth upfront. Had to wait for the restaurant to empty to be able to get to the back of the restaurant to use the restroom.

The food was very good, service ok, was very busy, and the waitress did a very good job trying to keep up. They needed more workers to help out. We will be back for sure, The pizza was great.
