Cleanliness: 5 out of 5 Service: 5 out of 5 Atmosphere: 5 out of 5 Food: 4 out of 5 My order: 14" Veggie pizza with jalapeños. Reflection: The customer service was amazing and I have to point that out because I went about an hour before closing and I know that can be seen as an inconvenience. I really enjoyed the freshness of the ingredients as well. read more

GREAT service. Everyone is super friendly and goes above & beyond. We noticed tons of takeout orders in the short time we were there. I wish I loved it, but it was underwhelming. We got the traditional vegetarian pizza and it was just ... okay. I could probably count on my hands how many olives there were lol we ordered a 10inch, which was about $25.00. Overall, not worth it but glad we finally tried read more

We came here because we saw all the fantastic yelp reviews!! Unfortunately we probably didn't get the best batch since for most of the slices (see video !) the toppings slid off the pizza, which may have been because the pizza was overloaded with sauce or not yet given enough time to rest after cooking. The toppings were still good but felt like we were using the dough to scoop up the toppings the kept falling off -- We love supporting local businesses so we will certainly come back and give this restaurant another try! The shop was so so cute with frames on the wall outlining the family story - and the service was quick! read more

We had an engagement party for my son and future daughter in law in January. Lea was so easy to work with. She helped me with my order, was an awesome communicator and took care of everything for me. The night of the party, Joey was our guy! He worked with our catering team and got the logistics worked out perfectly. Since Joey was working the mobile pizza oven, everything was very fresh. The food was amazing. Overall it was the most stress free event I've ever had. I highly recommend them! read more

We have been regular customers of D'Amore's now for a couple of years - the pizza here is second to none! I grew up in California but spent many years living in and around Boston, and being back in California for the last several years, I have missed really good East Coast-style pizza. We've tried various places in Ventura and Los Angeles County, but after finding D'Amore's, we look nowhere else for the best pizza, it's our go-to place! The crust is always crispy and perfect, the cheese makes our mouths water, and the sauce is just ::MUAH/Chef's Kiss::!! The staff is friendly and welcoming, and it's nice to see the owners working at the restaurant and out at community events. Get your pizza here! read more

First time here and ordered a jumbo pizza (12 slices) with half cheese and the other half with pepperoni & sausage for $35. They cooked the pizza the way I requested which was not burnt, charred, or crispy but soft and toasty. The pizza tasted delicious and I'll definitely come back for more and try some other things on the menu. read more

Delicious food, amazing service & a comfy ambiance! Staff is friendly and owner Lea is very welcoming! My family and I couldn't decide with so many tempting options to choose from so we shared a Marguerite pizza, chicken Alfredo pasta, chicken piccata, baked ziti w sausage & garlic knots. Everything was flavorful & the fresh ingredients were evident in the quality & taste! Clean restaurant & bathroom! Found a new favorite Italian restaurant & can't wait to go back to try more fresh dishes & desserts! read more

Combo 14" pizza, a side of meatballs, regular mixed green salad and a 1/2 Caesar salad! Absolutely delicious. Loved the thin tasty crust on our pizza. No pictures because we ate it all when we brought back to our hotel room! Will definitely visit here again when we are in the area. Loved the story about how the business started on the wall.....his grandma. read more

Hands down, one of the best experiences I've had in Thousand Oaks! I took the pizza and tiramisu making class at Amore's with a group of five friends, and from start to finish, it was incredible. Lisa was our instructor, and she was absolutely AMAZING--knowledgeable, patient, funny, and made the whole process feel welcoming and easy to follow. You can tell she loves what she does, and it makes the class that much more enjoyable. The pizza? Delicious. We got to make our own from scratch, and the flavors were out of this world--fresh ingredients, perfect crust, and customizable to your taste. Then came the tiramisu, and wow... creamy, rich, and the best I've had in a long time (yes, even better than some restaurant versions). The whole vibe at Amore's is warm and inviting. Everyone we interacted with was kind, friendly, and clearly passionate about sharing their love for food and community. It felt like cooking with family. Highly recommend this class for date nights, group outings, or just treating yourself to a fun and tasty time. We left full, happy, and with big smiles on our faces. Thank you Lisa and the Amore's team for a beautiful, delicious memory! read more

some of the best pizza I have had out of NYC. loved it. tiramisu was amazing as well.

The availability of pizza places that offer vegan cheese is sadly limited. I have developed a condition that requires me to avoid dairy, especially cheese. That makes enjoying my favorite food - pizza - extremely challenging. I saw online that D'Amore's has vegan cheese as an option. Called ahead to verify, and the kind young man taking orders confirmed it was true. When I asked about a white sauce or creamy garlic sauce for the base, he was confused. Apparently, they only use red pizza sauce. I asked if they could do olive oil and fresh garlic as the sauce layer. He checked with "the chef" and was told that was okay. Well, when Dear Hubby went out to run errands and brought the pizza home, it turned out that whoever assembled the ingredients ignored my request. I got red sauce instead. They do use Follow Your Heart vegan cheese, which is a good choice. The rest of the 'za was just okay. The mild Italian sausage had unremarkable flavor. The crust turned out to be the biggest disappointment. It has the consistency and flavor of boxed frozen pizza from the grocery store. Yikes! At $25 for a small pie with 3 toppings, the wrong sauce, and a subpar crust, this does not entice me to want to go to the restaurant for a dine-in experience. Oh yes - I ordered an hour before for a 5:30 pickup time. When DH arrived, it still wasn't ready. Unfortunately, our first impression wasn't the best. read more

This place used to be REALLY good unfortunately not anymore!!! 2ND time I ordered the wings they are overcooked and dry they forgot the blue cheese to dip ( I did not get buffalo sauce), so you could really taste dry burnt wings! The pizza seems smaller than I recall, I got a large and it seem like it was a medium, unless they changed the sizings they had a XL but that one is too big, But the pizza was cold, soggy, and really wasn't even pleasing the taste! I'll be going to Freda's Pizza, in lieu of D'Amores more authentic now, or Topper's Pizza! Worth $75 I think not, the worst now! read more

Good pizza, healthier than most, nice staff. but service could be faster and maybe a little cheaper. This pizza is probably on the more pricier places in town, but you get what you pay for. read more

Best pizza I've had in a while. Just had a simple cheese pie and it was fantastic. Cooked just right, great sauce, right amount of cheese and great crust. Would definitely go here again to try some of the other stuff on the menu. read more

Best pizza in VENYURA COUNTY. As a native New Yorker from Manhattan and tried pizza in many places. This one is great!!!

Yummm this place was such a hit! Went for a Sunday dinner and ate on their large outdoor patio which is perfect for summer nights. The employees were all super friendly, polite, and helpful. The food was outstanding. We shared a small pepperoni and ricotta pizza, and the baked ziti with eggplant. The pizza was SO good and flavorful. The undercarriage was super crispy, and the toppings were plentiful. The pasta was a massive serving with a yummy creamy red sauce, with super fresh basil on top. They have the classic jars of parmesan and red pepper flakes that you can shake on your food yourself, and the cheese was surprisingly fresh and soft, where most pizza places have cheap hard parm in these containers. We had over half the pasta and 2 slices of pizza left to bring home. It's located in a shopping center with plenty of easy, free parking. Can't wait to come back!! read more

The pizza was so delicious! We took it home and three of us shared a 14" pie. The staff were really nice.

Great pizza and chicken parmigiana sandwich! Nice people and good prices! And they have kids' "make your own pizza"!

Such great food!!! Everything here is so good and shareable! I love ordering a few different things like a pasta, pizza and appetizers bc we can share with the table and try a little bit of everything. You won't regret anything you order here, it's so good. read more

We love the Pizza and I usually pick it up myself. Friday night I was tired and ordered a pizza and salad. I have NEVER gotten a pizza still hot like it just came out of the oven! Kudos to Grubhub for delivering a delicious pizza and the chopped meatless salad quickly and, as I said, the pizza was still steaming!! read more

The pizza is the BEST, the service was amazing, took my son to dine in and we definitely will come back again, the guy was generous to give us an extra drink which was very nice of him. Great people and I liked the sitting area, they have TV for entertainment which is a plus, thank you for the incredible service and the perfect pizza, my son insisted I write this review read more

In Beverly Hills the pizza isn't as expensive per slice! Live this place as far as west coast pizza goes, but I'll wait till I travel back east or as far as Sherman Oaks or Beverly Hills for pizza that's not as expensive. read more

Worst pizza I've had in a long time. Crust was terrible, too much garlic, mediocre cheese. I could go on. I used to love this place but it has been many years since I had it. They first chased me away by over pricing their pizza and now they simply made it nearly inedible. O redemption possible here. read more

Our new go-to for great Italian food! We love their lunch special (every day until 4 pm including weekends!) and includes soup or salad, entree, and drink. The food is so so good and made to order. Everything I've had has been delicious. The chicken parm is hot and crispy, and the tomato sauce for the pasta is so so good and fresh! Mmmmmm .... Excellent food! read more

The pizza here is so good! I recently stopped in with my son for a couple of slices and I was blown away. The staff was super friendly, the service was fast....and the pizza was hot, delicious, and authentic New York style. I can't wait to go back and try everything on the menu! read more

We are regulars and love their thin cheese pizza. Reminds me of pizza you would get in NY. Nice thin crust with a perfect amount of flavorful cheese and a sprinkle of oregano. I follow their social media and want to try it with some ricotta on top next time! read more

The pizza here is pretty good. I'm originally from NYC and I've found that a lot of pizza places in California don't serve pizza that are comparable in tastiness to an average NY pizzeria. In fact, I've had terrible pizza here. Thus it was a nice surprise to have a good slice of pizza in California which I did enjoy at this pizzeria. read more

Truly the BEST PIZZA around anywhere! It took me years to discover the original D'Amore's Pizza in Canoga Park. And for over a decade I patronised them. This original establishment had the finest tastiest crust I'd had on a pizza. And, you want their regular thin crust. The origin story is a grand story. It is about how Joe D'Amore travelled from Boston, MA to Southern California and used his grandmother's recipe for his pizza pie shoppe but he couldn't make the crust taste right. After many attempts he and his Momanona discovered that the difference was all in the water! Because of California's hard water they decided to import the water from Boston and the rest as they say is history. https://www.damoresthousandoaks.com/our-story However the recipe came to pass their crust is simply gorgeous and tastes different from other pizzas made in California. Unfortunately, I had to move away from the area and alas no more D'Amores pizza until I discovered a chain and tried the D'Amore's off of 3rd Street near Beverly Hills, CA. I was elated to discover a D'Amores Pizza was over there...until I tried it. My joy dashed. The crust was all wrong. It was NOT the same recipe. Nothing tasty. Nothing special. Nothing grand. I gave them 2 or 3 more attempts until I gave up altogether. Then years later I moved again. During the recent Pandemica I was desperate for good pizza and tried out various pizzerias in the area hoping to come close to the original Canoga Park D'Amore's from "long ago." Lo and behold there was a D'Amore's in Thousand Oaks! I decided to give this one a try but I withheld any great hopes due to many prior disappointments. And YES!!! The same recipe!!! This D'Amore's is NOT like any of the others including even the Canoga Park D'Amore's of old which has since also changed. Due to a number of establishment changes over the years the Tried and True D'Amore's Pizza with the incredible crust made from the original recipe and amazing pizza has now shifted over to Thousand Oaks! YES! Luck turned around! And to cover the other bits...customer service and staff are very pleasant and accommodating. It's a cute local pizzeria and if you haven't been I recommend you give them a chance. They also have many other tasty non-pizza Italian entrées, too! Note: They can swap out vegan cheese for their pizzas and even swap out vegan cheese to cook their Baked Ziti. Make no mistake about vegan cheese, it is plant-based and as such does not melt like cheese made from dairy. To expect a pizza made of vegan cheese to taste or behave similar to pizza made of dairy is an unrealistic and unfair expectation upon any establishment. read more

Love the thin crust cheese, call me a purest. Great salads as well. Service is always friendly and casual dining with sports on the TVs.

We used the credit and tried a ricotta spinach pizza and it was pretty good. So all in all I think this place delivers a midrange pizza experience. A solid B. read more

Oh my gosh, soooo much fun. We had a pizza making class here last night with our group of 11. The owner, Lea, did a fantastic job teaching us how to make our own individual pizzas and tiramisu. So delicious. Our entire group had a great time. I highly recommend this pizza making class and restaurant. read more

We live in Camarillo but drive to TO or Malibu for their pizza since the Cam location is closed. Easily the best pizza we've had in LA (they import some ingredients directly from Italy). Their employees in TO are extremely nice. When you order a pizza to go, they always finish the last couple of minutes after you arrive for freshest pizza. The pizza is East Coast style (seems like NY but I think it's Boston, not sure the difference). Highly recommend! read more

My family took me to D'Amore's as a birthday surprise for a cooking class. I'm a chef and Italian food is my faaaavorite, so I was super excited at having this experience with Leah, one of the owners. She routinely runs cooking demonstrations in-house, corporate team building events in addition to operating a successful catering business. Ms. Leah gave us all of the specifics on imported flour used to make their pizza as well as the imported WATER both direct from Italy! This really makes this delicious pizza and cut above EVERYTHING! It's naturally gluten-free as the Europeans do not use the same hormone altering pesticides used here in America. We made sauce from scratch and also hand whipped tiramisu for dessert. I was delighted like a kid in a candy store! I simply could NOT STOP grinning! We created & baked our creations under Ms. Leah's watchful eye and encouraging demeanor, cheering us on all the way! She weaved stories of her running classes in the restaurant for as many as 35 attendees and at local corporate centers as we cooked & ate. Sooo much fun for me to create alongside another chef in a quaint space with wholesome ingredients. She was even so kind as to give us some dough to take away to recreate this deliciousness at home, which I did a few days later. I will return, hopefully to create something else super delicious in this unassuming, lovely space. read more

Great food, friendly service and comfy and clean environment. Always a pleasure to go if for pizza or something fancier!

I've lived here 12 years and never tried it but man what a great place. Had their arugula / prosciutto pizza plus their extra spicy wings. Both were outstanding. I came in based on meeting the owner and he was right. Everything is fresh and delicious. read more
