Fresh pizza, rolled and baked right in front of you, simple choices, fast service, super value for money and excellent taste. I would definitely eat from here soon and I absolutely recommend this place.
Unbelievable pizza, and it's truly remarkable that you can donate slices/ pies to the homeless.
This pizza is amazing, and believe me when I say I eat a lot of pizza. The crust is thin and cooked to perfection, and the cheese/ sauce ratio is outstanding.
The best pizza ever � � plus the most amazing owner I have ever met!!love this place so much !!
Best pizza I've ever had in my life, and I'm from New York. Plus, I love that I have the option to pay for someone else's pizza in advance and leave behind a custom note.
Thank you Kevin

In downtown Philadelphia, PA, there is a pizza shop which allows people to donate slices for homeless people to get something to eat.
They will place a Post-it note on the wall and, when needed, it is removed and presented for a free slice. A message can be given with the donation.
Great pizza and a great business helping take care of the homeless. Definitely a must to try out!
Just saw an upworthy video about the generosity and kindness of this owner and his customers who pay it forward with slices of pizza for the homeless. What a beautiful way to start my day! To leave a wallstreet job and pursue something like this is proof that...there is hope for the rest of the people working on wall street!! Lol! Next time I'm in Philly, I will look for this place! Wonderful. �
I loved the pizza and so did my daughter! It's definitely a must stop when in the city
Most important restaurant in Philly! Get on board with eatin' and treatin'!!!
Amazing pizza, amazing hearts!!! Thank you for being a change.
Phenomenal hearts for the homeless! Thank you for making a difference one slice at a time!
Good thin crust! Great idea to help our homeless!! Other cities take notice!!
Great Pizza....Great ministry......................
Best crust I have ever had! Crunchy yet moist, just thick enough to provide a little chew and a lot of taste. Liked their veggie option, too! Service was relaxed, but responsive and knowledgeable, too. Will go back for sure when I’m in Philly next time.
Best pizza deal you will find in Philly. Cheese slice goes for $1.25 (50 cents for toppings). You will also have an option to buy a slice for the homeless. I asked the owner and he says slices get handed out around 11pm every night to the homeless around Philly, around 50-100 slices. The pizza is incredibly tasty and on par with anything else you will find in Philly. A can of soda is $1.50, Powerade $3 and water $1. They also have a deal where its a slice with one topping, a salad, and a water for $5. We went here several times during our stay in Philly. Great for a quick snack. They are open pretty late on Friday and Saturday night as well. Lots of encouraging post it notes everywhere as well which were fun to read.
Really great-tasting pizza at a place trying to help others. Thin and tasty slices that are great for a snack. Cheese slices are $1.25 but if you want to donate slices they're still just $1. If you donate slices, you can add a personal message along with the order too. There are also post-it notes all around the restaurant of things people from all over have written which adds a unique touch.
Excellent pizza for a good cause. A two topping slice is $2.25.
Omg great pizza at a unheard of price, in town from Florida for wizard world fed my employees 3 pizzas for less then $27? And it was good pizza props guys
I'll be a customer every year I come into town.
Awesome place and friendly employees! Awesome pizza that is insanely cheap. Best of all, they give back to their community by feeding pizza to the homeless. A little action with a huge positive impact. I love reading the sticking notes on the wall every time I go there. Rosa's is the best!
Awesome! It's priceless how you feel when walking in there then reading the wall. He to fight back tears. Some still escaped. As a now homeless woman after neighbour in my own for 23 yrs. Owning my own home for 14 years. It made my hope and faith even stronger. Blessed. You don't always feel the love of the world when going through life transitions. The food was great as well. You can not lose one way or another. Thanking GOD for this owner and the volunteers.
As far as dollar slices go this place is decent. The sauce and cheese is good but the crust leaves a lot to be desired. Can't hold a candle to New York dollar slice joints. However, what this place has going for it is that you can pay extra to donate towards free pizza for the homeless. Anyone who is homeless is allowed to come in and get a free slice which is pretty cool especially since there is a pretty sizable homeless community in Philadelphia.
Love love love this place. Slices are terrific. Round slice pie can feel a little played out since there is a plethora of good choices, but this slice is great. Love the sauce. Plus you can pay it forward and buy a slice or more for a homeless person. So go have a delicious slice and help someone else have a meal. Cheapest slice around. Buy one - donate one!! Be a good human go do it.
Heard so much about the place on FB and I just had to visit on our holiday here. I contributed a few pizzas for anyone in need of one. The owners are doing a good thing and we should all pay it forward. The pizzas were pretty good by the way. With love... from Singapore.
Their pizza is good. They do such great thing in the community, they feed the homeless everyday twice a day. It doesn't matter how many people there are everyone gets two slices. They are always in need of donations,no amount is to small, especially for what they do. They were also on the Ellen show and Dr Oz.
Though I'm far away from Philly, I'm gonna miss Rosa's dearly. A friend and I had stopped by while visiting Philly to walk around the neighborhoods. Service was efficient and the pizza was fresh. We even bought some for the homeless folks. By the end of it, we must have bought like 5 slices altogether. Fantastic place, wish the best for everyone who worked here ♥
When visiting Philly, I searched for pizza places near the area. They came up and I had forgotten they came out on the Ellen Show. I love the fact that for a dollar I can donate a slice for the homeless. Out all the options I had I took a chance because of there cause. However there pizza is absolutely amazing! I was happy with the choice I made and anytime I am in Philly, I will be getting my pizza from here.
Thank you for making great pizza but most importantly for giving me hope, faith that good people still exist and showing extreme kindness and generosity during a very difficult time for me... You're one of many that I've been so graciously came into contact with. You keep so many of us holding on. Thank you - someone raised you more then right, you're human, that's a rarity and has truly made for a beyond beautiful being. ⭐💙⭐
Actually,the pizza isn't bad. I've had better, but for a buck a slice it's pretty good. Fresh,decent crust and I didn't feel like crap after I ate it (& I ate three slices!). Not greasy at all. I also like the buy a slice for the homeless thing too. Some cynics have said that it's nothing but a marketing ploy but I disagree. Some folks who were down on their luck came in and were treated with respect. It's a great idea. Stop in and check it out.
Nice mom and pop pizza.. Great service and they take donations ($1) to help feed the homeless. If you look at the picture, a homeless person can walk in grab a sticky note to receive that slice of pizza that some one has donated. Oh and the pizza was really good.
If you're looking for a new experience, this is a great one. Reading all the different post-it messages is nice and the pizza itself is surprisingly good for what you pay for. It's not necessarily 5 star pizza, but if you're going here for that alone I'd say you're missing out on so much more than that.
Pizza tastes so much better when you're paying it forward at the same time.
Love the prices and they feed the homeless too
Pizza was fresh, service was friendly. Rosa's Pay It Forward program is admirable. They allow customers the opportunity to donate money that goes toward pizza for the homeless. If you're in the area and you're not hungry, it's still worth popping in to see the thousands of posted stickers plastered on the wall with inspirational stories and well wishes.
