Vegan Pizza in Oceanside, down the street from where I am staying? Yes please. I visited their website and placed an order online for the Luscious Lola. The luscious lola comes with a garlic olive oil crust, vegan ricotta, chili flakes, oregano, fresh basil, vegan mozzarella, spinash, mushroon, zucchini, red onion, fresh rosemary, garlic chives, and lemon spritz. I asked for no basil and orderd a small pepperoni for my niece. I was kept updated on the cooking progress via text which was super helpful. When I arrived, the team was so friendly. We chatted about all the vegan options. I almost wanted to eat my pizze there due to the friendliness of the team. It's a small place inside but there's a couple of tables for a quick bite. There are some beer and wines option too. My pizza was amazing. One of the best vegan pizzas I have had. Kudos to Gianni's and if I'm back in Oceanside, I'm getting some more vegan pizzas. read more

This place is the definition of a neighborhood gem Right away you can feel that it's family-owned in the best way--warm, welcoming, and genuinely cared for! The food quality!!! You can taste the difference immediately. No cheap shortcuts, no sketchy oils--just real, high-quality ingredients. The fact that they avoid seed oils is almost unheard of these days! This is the kind of place you want to support. A family doing things the right way, refusing to cut corners, and creating an authentic experience!!! If you care about quality food and supporting businesses that actually give a damn--this spot is a must!! We love it here and drive over 45 mins for it! THANK YOU!!!! read more

The pizza was overly thin and greasy. The crust on our small veggie pizza was SO STALE and hard that you could tap it on the countertop. First and last time going to Gianni's Pizza. read more

Overpriced, soggy pizza and terrible service This place was a complete disappointment. The pizza was ridiculously overpriced and so soggy that the crust practically fell apart. For what they charge, I expected something that was actually worth the money. The service was just as bad. The staff seemed completely uninterested, and the overall experience was frustrating from start to finish. To top it all off, I didn't even receive a receipt. Overpriced food, terrible service, and not even a receipt to show for it. Definitely won't be coming back. read more

Good pie spot. Pizza is good, good music, they have great beer on tap (mmmm Treevana). Staff is not only cool but friendly. Just what I needed. Thank you read more

Good beer selection and pizza and salad. Friendly staff! Gotta support the small business

Awesome vegan pizza Really nicely salty and flavorful regular cheese pizza. The place seemed like a small whole in the wall. The girls were nice and I did take out for 2 of their vegan pizzas and 1 regular. Really nice flavor I paid $75 for 2 large and 1 xl Id get this spot again Only complaint is the vegan pizza crust doesn't hold up. It seems like the same crust as the normal pizza but I think the toppings were a bit too heavy for it Ill be coming back Thanks guys! read more

This is the most authentic pizza in Oceanside. They use imported flour from Italy, and San Marzano tomato sauce. There are several varieties of specialty pizzas and vegetarian options have their own menu. There isn't a lot of seating inside and only a few tables out front on the sidewalk, so delivery or to-go might be your best options. Either way, the pizza is fantastic! read more

My new favorite local neighborhood pizza joint! So glad I found them!!! I ordered the bruschetta pizza nice crust balsamic drizzle fresh tomatoes, perfect. Also ordered Greek salad. Lettuce was crisp tomatoes cucumbers fresh and flavorful I ordered on line and did a pick up.Pizza was ready at the time they provided. So great service!

I got the small Caldo pizza. It was tasty for sure BUT THE GREASIEST PIZZA I HAVE EVER EATEN. I was surprised to see the box soaked in Grease. The crust was over cooked around the edges and barely cooked on the bottom. Service was ok. Ambiance was ok. We chose this spot because my boyfriend is Vegan. His pizza was also greasy and had to much cheese. Great vegan and regular options, but don't know that I would recommend it. read more

Wow! I've lived in the area for 12 years. Originally from Chicago, we liked thin crust. This is in between but delicious !!! Tried many pizzas. Still bring back my pizza from Pasadena area but I tried this place the other day and it is wonderful flavor!. Sausage and olives very very good. They have mini pieces so I got myself a mini one the first time ,And they have specials also but last night my sisters picked up a large pizza and we are all very happy Italians. Thank you for making great pizza.!!! read more

First time at Gianni's and it won't be my last! Outstanding vegan and gluten-free options. The White Album pizza and Ricky Bobby sandwich were both amazing. Fresh, flavorful, and worth every bite. Thanks for the recommendation Martha! read more

I have been going to Gianni's Pizza for years and I'm so glad that they have built a wide variety of vegan options. All my plant based peeps need to know about it and try at least once. They are located off the 78 in an unassuming strip mall of stores. Highly suggest you Bookmark and check them out! Since I heard that there were new vegan shrimp menu items and I had to try. I was pleasantly surprised that the vegan shrimp is not gummy like others I've had, the pizza and the scampi had great flavors left me wanting more! Pizza crust is on the thin side so it won't keep up with the heavy toppings. My carnivore boyfriend also found the flavors and textures to be delicious, we ordered a medium pizza and we had some leftovers. Prompt service depends on who's working, but ordering ahead and picking up works well for me! read more

We were looking for a seed oil free, organic pizza place. Glad we found this one as their pizza is delicious. We also found out that the flour is imported from Italy and is made from clean ingredients. The staff is welcoming and kind. The place has a family business feel. read more

This pizza place was a breath of fresh air! Finding vegan pizza can be difficult but finding a plethora of choices, speciality pizzas and toppings to choose from is a needle in a haystack. Not only was their variety but it was perfectly cooked and absolutely delicious. The Penelope Pepperoni was spicy and so cheesy. The worst thing about Giannis is how far it is from my home!!!! We will be back to Oceanside soon and this will be an absolute necessity. Other notes: cashier and cooks were super friendly and definitely no complaints about service. read more

TL;DR: A promising pizza experience with a well-balanced crust and tasty cheese, though the sauce left room for improvement. Next to a home depot. Your Thoughts? 1/2 I enjoyed the pepperoni slice I picked up from this spot. The cheese was tasty, and the crust impressed with its good balance between chewy and crunchy textures, making for a satisfying bite. However, the sauce was somewhat lackluster and didn't quite meet the same standard. Expenses: 1/1 Price was about 5 bucks. Location: 1/1 Located in a medium sized lot next to a home depot. Staff was polite and I was able to check out via debit card. Possibility of a Future Visit & Recommendation: 1/1 I'd come back again! Pizza was good reheated. Would like to order it light sauce and have a fresh pie next time. read more

I usually don't complain unless I'm really disappointed. This is that occasion. We Ordered 1 Hawaiian and one Pepperoni the order was inaccurate , burnt to a crisp and cold on delivery. The order and the fact it was practically inedible I fault giannis.The fact it was D.O.A I fault DoorDash . I understand there are staff shortages , equipment malfunctions and other things that happen , but this was the worst experience I've had to date with either . The Service and quality are usually top notch and we've been happy customers over the years, and understand that everybody has a bad day or 2 or even 3. I will try again another time and hopefully the order is accurate and we get pepperoni instead of burnt cheese and that the driver doesn't get too close to Mt. Kilauea with our next Hawaiian. I was really wanting pizza tonight too read more

Gianni's Pizza - Burnt and inaccurate - Pizza Near Me - Oceanside, California

The truth is, I honestly think it's some of the worst pizza I have ever had. Been here three times now, and I will eat anything with sauce and cheese on it. I only stop by when at the locksmith next door. So I politely asked the girl not not warm it up. I prefer it right off the counter. Short story is we actually got into it and the manager came out and asked what the problem was. I said, I just want it cold off the pan, not warmed up. He got mad and said he doesn't serve cold pizza. I had to tell him I didn't literally want it cold, just whatever they had. He says what's your hurry ? IM NOT IN A HURRY I PREFER IT NOT WARMED UP !! we went back and forth, it was ridiculous. Finally, I said, just give me my money back, the girl can keep the $1.50 I threw in the cup ! Omg. But it really is the worst greasy product around, but since I'm next door, I pick up a slice. That was the last time. read more

Trying to figure out why these folks don't want my business. Online ordering is down and not answering phones for several hours now.

Just moved here for college and have been lucky enough to frequent this place for lunch. Gianni's is an absolute gem. Glen is so kind and friendly, as are the girls at the counter. Prices are great, you can get two slices and a drink for under $10. Bottles of beer are under $5 and pepper/cheese is free. Best of all, the pizza is AMAZING. Comparable to what you have in Europe, this place is a must try. I take all my buddies here when looking for a quick bite. read more

I regularly order from Gianni's as they're located around the corner and it comes fast when ordered through GrubHub. For the price, it can't be beat. Only $8 for a mini sized pizza which is perfect for just me. My go to is a mini pizza with extra cheese and a small Caesar salad. The salad dressing is good, nice and tangy and the croutons are perfectly crunchy. They also have a decadent limoncello cake that is creamy and delicious. For around $20, Gianni's is a great option. I can't say much about the restaurant as I always order delivery but the service is quick. read more

This is my (first time) in placing my online order for Gianni's Pizza on the Door Dash App on my Apple IPhone XR for my lunch time meal. I always enjoy trying out new restaurants that I have never eaten at before and also when I order on the Door Dash App for new places because I enjoy eating a variety of different kinds of cuisines. I was browsing the Gianni's Pizza Menu and I wanted to try their Calzones to go along with a Caesar Salad and I also I love eating desserts. I ordered two different kinds of desserts today. My order is as follows: One Froman Pesto Calzone these ingredients includes: (spicy sausage pieces, mozzarella cheese, sliced mushrooms, onions, and spinach with marinara sauce) that is filled in a calzone. The price is $11.99. I also ordered a Caesar Salad it includes the Caesar Dressing. This Caesar Salad has ice berg lettuce, crunchy croutons, and slivers of parmesan cheese that comes with a creamy Caesar Dressing a separate container. The price is $9.99. I ordered a large size Caesar Salad. This One Froman Pesto Calzone was a big size and still warm when I received it from Liz so I didn't need to heat it up in my microwave oven. I placed these food items on separate plates. I only could eat half of this one Froman Pesto Calzone because I am a small eater. This Calzone did not come with a dipping sauce from this Gianni's Pizza Restaurant. I was eating this Froman Pesto Calzone for my lunch meal. This Calzone was very hearty and also it tasted very good with this (spicy sausage pieces, the sliced marinated mushrooms, melted mozzarella cheese and the sautéed spinach) that was filled inside this calzone. The dough of this calzone was crispy and very delicious. It was my first time eating a Froman Pesto Calzone. Then I also was eating the large size Caesar Salad with the dressing. I was only again able to eat half of this salad. It was very healthy and very flavorful. This Caesar Salad paired really good with my calzone. For my side order I selected the One Cheese Garlic Bread. The price is $2.50. The Cheese Garlic Bread is toasted in an oven and it is spread with melted cheese and another garlic sliced bread is placed together and it looks like a cheese sandwich on a submarine roll. My desserts which I have chosen today were the 2 Brownies. The price is $2.00 each and I ordered 2 quantity so the total was $4.00. I had eaten one brownie, it was very moist with the yummy chocolate flavor. I saved my second brownie to eat at a later date. Then my final dessert order was the one slice of the Limoncello Mascarpone Cake. The price is $4.89. This is a generous piece of cake that is layered between the Limoncello Mascarpone filling and it has 3 layers of cake which is very moist and really delicious. My subtotal was $33.37. The delivery fee was originally $7.49 but since I spent the minimum amount of $12.00 then my delivery fee was no charge to me. The service fee was $6.34 but was reduced down to only $3.00. The estimated tax was $2.20. The dasher tip I had chosen for Liz my dasher delivery driver was $8.00. I accepted this expensive tip for Liz since my order is an expensive Door Dash Order today. My total bill was $39.90. This amount was charged to my visa credit card account. I received my Door Dash delivery order earlier about 10 minutes sooner than I had expected. My Gianni's Pizza Order was dropped off to me at 1:24 p. m. It didn't take very long for this Gianni's Pizza Restaurant to prepare and to bake my Froman Pesto Calzone and then I received a text message from the Door Dash Company that told me my Dasher driver her name is Liz is heading to the Gianni's Pizza Restaurant to pick up my order. And Door Dash will text message me and let me know when Liz will be heading to me to deliver my order to my home address. It had taken Liz about 15 minutes to drive over to this Gianni's Pizza Restaurant to pick up my order and then Liz drove over to my home to drop off my order to me. Liz knocked on the front door then I opened up my front door and Liz said hi and then she handed me my order This Froman Pesto Calzone was in a Hot Box and the other order was in a large brown paper bag. Liz was very friendly to me then she left my house. Everything I had eaten today for my lunch time meal was very delicious and I was very impressed with it being my first time ordering from this Gianni's Pizza Restaurant. Their desserts the chocolate brownies was very moist and this chocolate flavor was not too sweet. The Limoncello Mascarpone Cake has real Mascarpone filling layered in between this really moist cake and it has a really light and really delicious flavored frosting and filling. I really enjoyed eating this Limoncello Mascarpone Cake today for my dessert. I called and spoke to their manager after I ate everything this afternoon. This manager said their Limoncello Mascarpone Cake is their most popular dessert and so is their brownies. Their desserts are made from a specialty bakery. read more

Best local vegan pizza! So glad we discovered this place! We have ordered from here I'd say a good 6x or so. They have lots of vegan options, we tend to order the same ones with the intent to order different ones but most of the time we get the same stuff (it's just so good). They also sell pasta and sandwiches. They do have a delicious vegan salad here which is phenomenal! If you're vegan, or curious about vegan pizza, look no further! Thank you Gianni's!!! read more

I got a vegan cheese pepperoni pizza and it was so salty I could barely eat it, let alone enjoy it. I've ordered this before and it was fine, I don't know what they did differently this time to make it unbearably salty. My garlic bread was microwaved which made it like rubber to try and chew. I don't know where the garlic was because I didn't taste any. The vegan mac-n-cheese was super dry. Waste of money. I won't order from here again. read more

It's tough to find vegan pizza without having to order it without cheese or something weird like that. Not only does this place have vegan options, they have a ton of them! There are also vegan pastas and salads and sandwiches on their menu too. On top of just having vegan options, they actually taste great too! I actually was really impressed by their pizza crust. I don't know anything about their cooking techniques, but it tasted like someone who actually cared about the flavor of the dough made it. Way better than the dough at most pizza places, IMHO. My only critique would be that they always roll their pizza dough so flat in the middle that it is too thin to pick up a slice of pizza. When you try, half the toppings fall off. The crust is nice and thick, but the middle of the pizza is just too thin, necessitating a fork and knife to eat it, or you'll just have to deal with really messy hands, your choice. I've never tried their non-vegan options, so can't vouch for those, but this place is awesome for vegans! So far my favorite pizza is the Nacho Pizza. read more

Got lunch here today and waited over 15 minutes for them to reheat 2 slices of pizza with literally 1x person in front of me. Ehh things happen but when I got the pizza I was mad bummed, I dont mind greasy pizza but this was disgustingly greasy, and the fact I ordered it to go, they gave me that extremely greasy pizza on a plate with tinfoil so now I have a huge grease stain on my seat. Thanks guys read more

I absolutely love this place. The food is freshly made to perfection. They genuinely care about their customers. Sam makes the best pizza. I have serious allergies, and they never disappoint. I highly recommend to check them out. read more

So I'm sitting here chowing down my pasta, finding myself so shocked and disappointed that the average rating is 3.5 stars. I had to come and defend Gianni's. Have you been here?! This place is amazing. First off, if you're looking for Domino's style pizza, this may not be what you're looking for. But, if you're looking for a place run by a caring owner who has really put his heart and soul into every menu item--caring so much that he literally flew his staff to Italy to train and make *authentic* pies--this place is for you. Its modest, hole-in-the-wall vibes playfully pay an homage to the Grateful Dead through the dancing bears and art on the wall. There's a tiny but mighty selection of good beers, too. One thing they pride themselves on is vegan-friendly options, and they truly excel here. Their meat options are just as great, and let me say their gluten-free crust is literally unmatched (not dead, lifeless, or crumbling the way many are). And you don't have to feel bad about having dietary restrictions or allergies! They are so flexible and will work with you. *chef's kiss* They use clean ingredients--i want to say they're mostly, if not totally, organic, too. Trust me, the quality and attention to detail really shines through in the flavor combinations and precision when cooking. They'll try funky flavor combinations and even have a whole section of the menu dedicated to the not-so-mainstream options. I've tried a good handful of menu items but a few favorites: -getting figgy with it (pizza) -naked hippie pasta with meatballs (the vegan meatballs are amazing too!) -my husband is a really big fan of their calzones, too. TLDR; if you're looking for a cozy local hole-in-the-wall spot that uses fresh ingredients, is gluten and vegan-friendly but also fine for meat-eaters (and really, just pizza-lovers in general) try this place. You really won't be disappointed! read more
