    Cheeeeese pizza!!
    Pierre C.

    Grand opening! The best pizza in town is now in Goleta! Loved this place when I first came to Santa Barbara years ago... still love it!!!

    Special pizza and Hawaiian
    Daniel L.

    Came here after the big opening, our order was taken right away even though the kitchen was busy. We hung out and the place is small but very friendly and cozy. Our food was brought out quickly even with how much was going on. The food was so good, the pizza was nice and hot and looked and smelled so good! Once biting into the first slice I knew we made the right choice in pizza places to eat. The crust was delicious and the pizzas were stacked with toppings. I'm definitely coming back and if you want a nice clean delicious pizza this is your spot!

    White pizza with chicken and jalapeños

    Very friendly staff that takes the time to make sure you get what you want to eat. The store is very clean and bright. The food tasted very good!

    The chicken and the chicken parm.

    Best pizza in town! The crust is amazing. Love the chicken wings and the salad. My husband loves the calzone too. Great service. Thank you!

    This company is awful in business. We rented the pizza truck and we specifically ask for the black…read moretruck. I repeated and emphasized so many times that I only want the black truck. I paid in full 6 months in advance just to make sure that I will get the black truck for my wedding. Guess what they brought on my wedding day, The white truck that I did not like. No phone calls beforehand, no apologies. Melissa and her husband were crooks and I don't believe they have a black truck. They just show it on their website, but I think it's non existence. Very deceitful. If there is less than one star, that's what I would give them.

    We had the Lucca Truck for our wedding in September and I cannot emphasize enough how AMAZING they…read morewere! Not only was the pizza some of the best pizza I have every had (I am not kidding, multiple guests asked for their business card), but they were extremely professional, clean, and well organized. So many guests told me how surpisingly well oiled of a machine they were. If a pizza was almost out of slices, they already had another one less than 30 seconds away from being ready. On top of being great food and the fasts buffet I have ever experienced, their set up was beautiful! My family and friends were so worried when I said I was going to have pizza for my somewhat fancy wedding and every single one of them was blown away at how upscale they made pizza. 1000/10 would recommend

    born and raised santa barbara so there are certain things you learn early…read more you drive down the 101, take that turn toward isla vista, and something shifts. air changes a little. priorities adjust. time becomes more of a suggestion and then there's freebirds the original one on embarcadero del norte sitting there like it's seen everything because it has i've walked in there wearing flip flops, still sandy, hair doing whatever the ocean decided, salt drying on my face, no shower, no plan, just following the internal signal that says burrito and that's when it works best these burritos operate differently in that state. they're bigger. warmer. more correct. like the whole system is calibrated specifically for post-surf decision making line is long. always has been. mix of people who know exactly what they're doing and people about to learn something important foil everywhere. tortillas moving fast. someone at the front making a choice that will define the next hour of their life guy behind the counter was dialed. didn't catch the name but i'm pretty sure it was barron sawyer. had that calm confidence like he's built a few thousand of these and understands the assignment at a deeper level you step up and it's muscle memory rice, beans, meat, things start stacking, someone folds it like it's a practiced skill passed down over time and then you walk out sun still out. flip flops still on. burrito in hand like a completed mission you take that first bite and everything aligns for a second this place has been around 30 years and it makes sense because it isn't trying to be anything else it already figured it out five stars if you know you know

I recently returned and got exactly what I used to get and was disappointed in the lack of seasoning/flavor in general. I saw someone else comment that chipotle has more flavor and I'm inclined to agree-especially when it comes to the chicken. Service is always friendly and fast and I always want to support a local business over a national chain, but I'm sad to say I don't know if I'll be returning after spending $25 for a bland experience.
