Crust & Brew is a great spot to chill, watch sports, or get together with friends. Their happy hour deals are great, and everything on the menu has been great! I've had the pasta, pizza, and finger foods. Nothing I've had has been bad yet. All the girls are very helpful and great at engaging with the guests. Definitely give it a try, and you'll turn into a regular as well read more

This place is sooooo good. I came here first time during lunch specials. I tried the pizza, salad, and beignets. I came back a second time during Sunday happy hour. We ordered just about everything off the happy hour menu. So much food and so stuffed but still needed to get two slices of pizza. The thing I love is that the crust is super thin and crispy. Not everyone is gonna like this style of pizza but for me, it is worth driving 30 min out of the way to have a stunning meal. Perfect for an after hike lunch or a casual meet up. All the servers I have interacted with are super nice. They even have a back patio area that is dog friendly. So if your dog is well behaved, bring them out to enjoy social time too! read more

We are particular about our pizzas since we are Italian, but this place passed the test! Everyone was so nice and kind. We ordered from the Happy Hour menu-- buffalo wings (not too spicy, but packed with flavor) and mozzarella sticks (crispy and gooey all at the same time). Would recommend the meatball sandwich if you want something other than pizza, but you would be missing out if you didn't try at least one. We ordered 2 medium pizzas-- the Moonlight and the Kelly. All the ingredients were fresh and full of flavor. The crust was thin and light. We will be returning customers for sure! read more

First time trying and the food did not disappoint! Came on Sunday for dinner and was able to order on the happy hour menu. The food was seasoned very well and there was a nice variety on the menu. The garlic knots were GARLICY :P yum! The chicken wings were very tasty and comes with around 4-5 pieces for half a pound at $7. If you were to order a total of one pound of chicken wings, it is cheaper to purchase this on the regular menu. The sandwiches/burgers come with a side dish of either daily soup, salad (house or caesar), or fries. The server today December 14, was very friendly and attentive. He answered all of our questions and served us with a smile. There is around 14 tables inside the restaurant with the bar area and 9 tvs. There is also outdoor dining both in the front and back of the restaurant that seats a ton! Definitely can see this place being very busy for sports. I will definitely come here again, and will try the other food on happy hour and the regular menu. Fortunately with Happy Hour basically everyday, there is many opportunities to eat with here with a deal! read more

I love a good happy hour deal, so when I heard this place has happy hour all day on Saturday, I knew we had to go. This restaurant is located in a small shopping center surrounded by residential homes. There is plenty of parking. The receptionist greeted us with a smile and seated us immediately. It wasn't busy at all on a Saturday at noon. The bartender came and took our order and the food came out quickly. She was friendly and checked on us often. They have 4 ready made pizza flavors each day for sale by the slice. Their happy hour menu has chicken wings, tenders, and boneless wings with a variety of sauces. The best sauce is the mango habanero! The pizza is solid, wings are good, tenders are a little too salty. We've also had their beignets and cheese sticks at another visit and they were good too. Overall this place is good for happy hour. Would recommend a try! read more

I've been coming to this place for years and it's honestly decent food but with the new management I'm not sure. Here's the issue - I ordered wings with blue cheese dressing and after devouring the first wing covered in blue cheese i realized something was up with the dressing - it had gone bad. It was fizzy and full of bubbles and didn't taste right. I pointed this out to the waiter, and they brought me new dressing and admitted that it had gone bad and promised that the new dressing was good but at that point the damage was done and I was done with blue cheese for a while. They didn't take the wings (that I didn't eat bc I was grossed out) off the bill and now I'm just hoping that my upset stomach doesn't get worse. read more

This place has great customer service and great deals. We enjoyed the sliders and pizza. read more

I paid 30 for a cheese pizza with ricotta. When I arrived, I had to inform them of the issue and after no attempt to make me whole, I had to ask them to refund the order. On top of that I still ended up having to pay 12$ for a small soda. read more

This place is a neighborhood pizza joint that doubles as a decent sports bar. It was very quiet on the Sunday afternoon that I was there with just a few other people taking in some NFL games. Service was fine especially with so few customers and the pizza was fresh and good with a nice doughy crust. Bonus if you have a Tesla as there is a supercharger station in the parking lot. read more

Welp, dry January lasted all of 10 days! In my defense, I was pre-gaming before an evening board meeting (oops, that actually sounds bad too), but at least I kept to one drink only... Moderation more sustainable than abstinence anyway, yes? ;) The Drink (Hendrick's gin, St. Germain elderflower, cucumber, fresh lemon juice, basil) wasn't amazing but certainly acceptable for a neighborhood pizzeria, while my fellow board member/partner-in-crime enjoyed a crisp Allagash White wheat beer - both paired well with the Fried Calamari with its trio of sauces (creole mustard + marinara + pesto). Pro tip: social hour 2-6 pm daily, Monday all day, and Sunday 11 am-4 pm! read more

I ordered the Kelly pizza and spaghetti and meatballs, and both were disappointing. The spaghetti sauce was on the sour side which isn't my preference but not horrible, and the meatballs had a strange aftertaste I couldn't put my finger on.. I think the fennel was very overwhelming. The pizza honestly reminded me of frozen pizza. The dough was tough, the toppings were too salty, and again the tomato sauce was on the sour side. I'm not sure why this place has so many positive reviews other than maybe the fact that it's a local sports bar too? The service was nice, but unfortunately I won't be coming back. read more

Found this spot on Yelp and wanted to try something new. Came in for dinner around 6pm and it wasn't busy but had a good amount of people inside. Ordered a pizza and some pasta. The pizza was super thin, not my favorite, but the flavor was good. Also ordered the big sexy mac and cheese, that was very good. The place it self was clean, bright, and open. Our server was also very nice. I would definitely recommend this place!! read more

Looking for pizza/Italian that would be easy to get into and out. This place was great. No wait but good menu and service. I would go back.

Excellent Gluten Free pizza! It's hard to find a good gf crust that doesn't taste like cardboard. Crust & Brew has all the topping choices - we built our own pepperoni and hot honey combo which was delicious. The Italian chopped salad was also good. Inside is casual and there's plenty of seating with sports games on multiple tvs. Our service was also very friendly. I would recommend this place! read more

Wanted to try there pizza so ordered a slice to go. They only had cheese and ricotta bella available. Usually would want to order a slice of pepperoni pizza. I ordered the ricotta bella slice to go. The cheese was good, was disappointed as a corner of the crust was too charred/burnt for me. Also the crust had a crunch but it seemed cracker thin to me and I'm not a huge fan of the stone pizza oven. At this point I will not return. read more

Favorite happy hour! Service is always friendly and vibe is lowkey. 2 people can eat dinner and have a drink for under $40. Better deal than most fast food these days. read more

Your new home on Monday night. Lots of tempting choices for the all night happy hour, but I was I the mood for $6 sliders. Now these aren't the cute lil King's Hawaiian dinner roll sliders. You basically get a pair of small sandwiches. (Maple?) Fried Chicken sliders were very good, I'd say 8.5/10. But don't sleep on the 10/10 Meatball Sliders. I now understand why the meatballs are a signature menu item here. Except that here in the slider you get some mozzarella melding in with the well-seasoned marinara. $5 house Cab Sauv was fine. Pleasant service from John at the bar. read more

Swung by cause my friend needed time to charge his Tesla. Weren't familiar with the area so we just hopped in and gave it a shot. Happy hour's got some pretty good deals! Got the wings and some glasses of wine while we waited. The server was kind enough to explain the menu to us. The wings were just right, I'd give them a 7/10. Honey sambal is definitely unusual for a pizza place. They have an outside patio that looks ideal for hanging out. Tons of families were pouring in towards the evening so it must be awesome. Hopefully I get another chance to return. read more

Crust & Brew - Honey Sambal Wings - Pizza Near Me - San Diego, California

The new owner has dramatically improved this neighborhood gem, and he is personally onsite every day. I highly recommend this place, and I go often. Here are some highlights: 1. Dough Whisperer: The pizza before was fine, but now it is great! This is apparently due to one person in the kitchen who is obsessive about making the dough perfectly. 2. $11 lunch specials: Combo deals like 2 slices or a half sandwich with a side. That is less than a big mac combo at McDonalds, and it is good food. (Add a beer for $5, too. Can't do that at McDonalds.) Like where in Carmel Valley can you get that kind of value? 3. Happy hour deals: From 3pm-6pm and all weekend long, $7 will get you 2 slices of pizza, a half pound of wings, or a bunch of other great options, plus wine, drafts, and well drinks. It is the best deal in town. 4. Super-friendly staff: They hire really well here. Everyone is efficient while being fun and welcoming. 5. Group-friendly: I was there a few nights ago and a party of like 50 people took over the whole back patio. There are not many restaurants that can handle that kind of group. Anyway. It's really great. I only saw like one negative review, and it seems to be from the kind of person who is just angry at the world, you know? read more

This place went down hill fast, then it went under new ownership and while they sorta started out mediocre it slid faster than the old one. The food is average at best but a quick fix if you live in the area. However, the ownership is completely absent and its not funny. On Weekends they staff the place with inexperienced arrogant and entitled teenagers, and when something comes up all you get is attitude and god help you if you would like to speak to the owner, apparently (per Faith the manager) on weekends the owner Gabriel has better things to do than dealing with a business and customers Our latest misstep We place an delivery order, for some reason unknown to anyone its was canceled after an hour and within minutes of delivery. We called the restaurant asking why? of course we get a manager (yeah right lol) named Faith who tells us our order is on the way and the driver is standing right there, no explanation but not to worry. We are close by, after waiting we call again, told our food is there if we want to come get it, and no refund BTW and if we want a refund we have to call Doordash, Seriously WTF? We told her to refund our money. We know from prior experience the restaurant can either call or message Doordash and resolve the order issue instantly, . We asked to speak to the owner, told Gabriel never comes in on the weekends, and which we replied surely he must have a number to call for issues, yes, but hes not going to call you, we requested a call back to get our refund, on an order they wouldnt actually give us, insane After this latest of many issues we are done. Placed an order with Flippin down the street and as usual zero issues Ya can't own a food business and decide its not important to show up for work on the weekends to deal with your customers, won't be long for this place to goes under. read more

Loved it. New ownership really upgraded the food and experience. We ve been there a ton and always top notch. Kids love it too and it convenient and close. read more

Great pizza great service for take out order super hot and fresh. Definitely going to do a sit in experience next time.

We had an Event at Crust & Brew this past weekend and could not be happier with the turn out. Amazing service, food was delicious place was impecable and the attention to detail and overall experience was truly incredible! Thank you to Gabriel and the staff for such a great experience! read more

We walked in with five people with no reservations on a Friday night and it was PACKED. Despite being very busy with lots of kids after FNL, everyone from the bartender to the hostess to our server were very very nice and accommodating and friendly. In any other situation, I can imagine wait staff getting overwhelmed but everyone who serviced us was kind and cheerful. This is obviously cultural and how they are. Wonderful spot. I will return! read more

Crust has a nice variety of speciality pizzas and toppings. Friends and family enjoy eating here but the only downside for me is the gluten free crust is thin with a texture like cardboard. read more

Basically the same menu as the original Crust but sold and rebranded ... Anthony is the manager and is very personable , pleasing and attentive ! They need more servers for sure but everyone tries to help . Still way too loud but family friendly now there is that ... food is tasty , as described on the menu , think a quick hit in the neighborhood, easy, prices are fair , great happy hour ( which is all day every weekend!) read more

Great food great pizza one of my fav spots! They truly do have such great crust ! If you haven't gone , it's worth it!

If you haven't been here in a while, it's worth a trip. They are under new management and from what I can tell, they are doing a great job. The food was delicious and we'll definitely be back for Meatball Mondays. There are some great choices for both drink and Italian food so please try it out. The people were very friendly as well. read more

I always get great service, great food and great prices. Happy Hour is really good here. its a lovely atmosphere with a great patio. Try it you will like it! read more

This is my go to place but recently almost everything served was too heavy handed with the salt. Ordered meatballs and omg had to spit it out as it was SO salty. Sure fire way to raise one's blood pressure. If nothing changes I'll have to go find another option which is unfortunate since it's so conveniently close to me. But I'd rather forego the convenience then die an early death. read more

Been a regular here for a while. Great people, great ambience, great food. They recently revamped the menu. As a vegetarian most places have a couple of things for us weirdos; here they have lots! A new speciality pizza on their menu, fresh pesto and fresh mozzarella, is incredible. Best pizza I have ever had. Highly recommend! read more

I used to like this place, but after today I will never go back to our neighborhood pizzeria and brew. I Made an online order for 730 pick (two hours prior) after hearing an advertisement to 500 people at Friday night lights. I got there at 730 and they were back up. Understandable. I waited 15 minutes like they asked; went back after 15 and they needed another 20 minutes. The gentleman said we are human. N/S. I then Asked for my money back and left with no food for the family. Wish them well. Maybe next time they can turn off the online ordering if they can't handle it read more

While the pizza is on the pricier side, the food and service do not disappoint. Even through new ownership and menus, the crust brand has stood strong and this is a great restaurant for a pizza night out on the more formal side. read more

Great service. However, quality of food has gone down since new ownership. Had the steak salad, which always had a beautiful and delicious filet. Now it's a very thin grey piece of meat, sliced and connected by a ribbon of hard fat. No seasoning and no flavor. Bummer. read more
