“ This is under rated. I had the Greek pizza (their specialty) and a house salad. My pal had the lamb (wonderfully cooked). It's a Greek flavor profile on their pizzas which make them unique. The crust sort of reminded me of the Pizza Hut crust that is crispy and buttery on the outside and soft and doughy on the inside. It's not exactly like that, but similar. Very good. As others have said, this is pizza you can eat with a fork and is loaded with toppings. I hear this place has been open for over 30 years. My family has been going here for at least that long. Lots of wonderful family memories here. I usually like to support local business, and this is one the community can take pride in. It's a great place. The Environment however is a little too low-key and divey for today's standards in suburbia. Much different than your typical modern pizza or Greek place, but that's cause it's not a chain and not supported by outside investment. It's all about the good food and friendly family service. As a designer, I have to completely turn my blinders on to the ambiance and environment. The interior lighting is atrocious! If they could figure out an affordable solution to fixing up the dining area and bathrooms, they would have a game changer and more people giving higher ratings. Best of luck, but this type of restaurant is a dying breed. ”

“ Have been here for dinner many times over the past 35 years esp. in the last 8 years since moving to Napa. Keep ordering my favorite lamb souvlaki dinner. Everything is delicious. Have had mousaka, grape leaves, pizza etc. yum....so good. FORGIVE & correct my Greek spelling... ”

“ Nikkos special is a top notch pizza. It's one of those weird hour places and I love that ”

“ Really great pizza though with a Greek twist. I am a big fan of the Spicy Greek in particular. Prices are a bit on the higher side, but definitely worth it. Davis doesn't have a lot of great pizza places so the competition isn't great, but Symposium is my favorite for sure. ”

“ An amazing pizza place that is different from your typical pizza place. This pizza is the kind you can eat with a knife and a fork. The best way to describe the pizza is pie like. It's thick, decadent, and flavorful. We got the symposium pizza and paros island and both were absolutely delicious. If you are looking for a change of pace from your normal pizza or are just looking to treat yourself, I highly recommend this place! ”

“ HAVE AGAIN: Lamb chops, rice and vegetables are wonderful. So good. Outstanding service from Bertha. Thank you. ”

“ *** Vegetarian Review *** You wouldn't think anything of this place by the looks of the shopping center. Grocery Outlet, Goodwill, Dollar Tree, and a laundry mat ... the value-quadruplet of stores and then there's Symposium. Plenty of shared parking with inside and outside seating, this place has the best pizza in town. Yeah, they have a full menu of soups/salads, Greek classic appetizers and main dish specialities, but in the 10+ years I've been coming here, I've never found a need to order anything else beyond pizza. Would I Come Back Test? Heck yeah. When we have visitors and they think, "hey, this is a college town. Let's order pizza." Sorry Woodstock's, Symposium is our go-to place to show off the town. Comparisons: There are none. Nothing compares to their crust. It's almost like eating a pastry pie. 3 Tips for First-Timers: 1) Pizzas can take up to 45-60 minutes to order (non-Covid times) so think ahead. 2) They have two separate eating areas inside -- a good place to hold a large party for graduations or birthday parties. 3) Outside seating is available Large #18, Vegetarian Special ($20.99, Grade A+): All the regular veggies; mushrooms, green peppers, olives, onions, and fresh-sliced tomatoes placed on the pizza after it comes out of the oven. The difference is the crust that lays the foundation to elevate all these ordinary ingredients to an extra ordinary bite. It's like no other pizza I've tried. Just like Detroit Style pizza has a unique quality, this ... dare I say "Greek Style" pizza has no rivals. It's more like a really savory pastry crust ... possibly very lightly buttered to add flavor, but I can't attest to it. Has a pan-style feel, but only if the pan-style pizza was made by a baker and not a pizzeria. If you can, eat it there. There is a difference. Eating in allows the crust to remain crunchy. Taking it home, the steam from the closed pizza box doesn't do the crust any favors texturally, but the flavor remains intact. I enjoy the light layer of red sauce on the pizza and they always cook the pizza long enough so the cheese gets a nice darkened color. Not quite burned, but a few minutes more and it would turn to the burn-side. Just a delicious pizza and a large can easily feed 3 adults. Bottom Line: High quality and a unique pizza. Once you've had Symposium, you quickly realize there are different levels of pizza. The kind of stuff you get on the corner to just satisfy your pizza cravings and the kind you invite your family and friends to eat as a meal. ”

“ I first was introduced to Symposium during my post-UCD days when they catered to my first job out of college. I had a mad craving and made the evening drive to pickup a phone-in order to go. Michelle's must-order: Peasant Salad, 1/2 and 1/2 Gourmet Greek Pizza (#20 Spanakotrio Pizza which has spinach and 3 cheeses; and #23 Spicy Greek which has pepperoncini, crushed red peppers, olives, onions, garlic, and feta cheese). Delish. The level of Spicy that the Spicy Greek turns out to be is always a surprise! Don't know why, but I don't love the meat pizzas here as much as the above veggie ones! They're deep dish and a different spin on pizza, please support local small businesses! Haven't tried any of the other dinner menu items, but I do recall dolmas and baklava as well were good. Hidden away in the complex with the Grocery Outlet, Dollar Tree, and Goodwill. ”
