Got takeout and the pizza was so delicious!! My favorite was the pepperoni; I was very impressed! It was thin, cheesy, and great quality ingredients! With no ranch the sauces we got on the side were the chipotle and marinara were not good. But the chimichuri was very good. And I want to try the blue cheese next time. I also really liked the jalapenos I added. Their pizza was wayyyy better than the fake hype at Truly--facts! I saw people complaining about service etc so hopefully will still have a positive experience dining in as well. read more

We came into Homeslice today to watch the USA v Belgium World Cup game. We arrived around 5:10pm just after the game started, and were seated at a table on the patio. There was a large group of people (started as a group of five but grew to about 10-12 people) who ended up bleeding into the table next to us and asked if they could take our two extra chairs. Being friendly, we said "sure, no problem!". Shortly after, Marc came over and asked if our chairs had been taken and we let them know that the group next to us asked for them. In response, with deep condescension he responded "No, that isn't okay we have a lot of people waiting", which we understood but we also don't work there and aren't going to be rude to fellow patrons. He then told the group next to us he needed the chairs back only to not actually use said chairs for seated guests. It left all of us very confused for the unnecessary interaction. About 15 minutes later, my husband was looking for our server to order another drink and close out, when Marc came up and told us he needed the table. Mind you, we took time out of our evening to get there early for the game (as did everyone else that evening) and there was no signage nor a heads up from the team onsite that there was a limit on the tables, especially as we weren't the only people there for the very same reason. We had been there about 1.5 hours at that point and there was only a little bit left in the game. The group next to us who had also been there the entire time, and got sat before we did, weren't told they needed to get up, but we were given the third degree for our two spots. When my husband asked if he could get that next drink, Marc responded "I don't take orders" and walked away. Our server then proceeded to not check on us for an additional 20 minutes (we were trying to close out as requested), which ironically made it so we took up their table for the remainder of the game. He also mentioned that he ran into a similar issue with guests the previous week for the game, which sounds to me like an opportunity for better problem-solving skills and coaching amongst the team, not a customer-issue. All of this, only for there to be NO wait when we left AND open tables. Being that my husband and I are both in hospitality management, we were extremely frustrated by the lack of respect and embarrassing customer service by none other than Marc Sullivan, a co-owner of Homeslice. I think it's a bare minimum ask that the management and ownership, have the same decency and respect for paying customers that they expect of the rest of their service staff. By the time we got to our car it was 7pm and hadn't even been two full hours, all for our table to not even be needed. Totally understand it being a busy night but highly recommend that the team game plan better rather than making it the customers' responsibility to highlight where this situation could have been improved. Really bummed to have this experience as we're DP locals and love coming to eat/drink here! read more

I came here last month with family and friends to celebrate my nephews girlfriend. She graduated college and chose this place to celebrate. There was about 15 of us in attendance and being my mom is 81 years old and I have a disability we were unable to sit at the high top tables that were arranged for our luncheon. Mind you we got there early a 12pm lunch on a Saturday. There were only three other tables being used. We asked to sit at a regular table (just my mom & I). I explained the situation and the "manager" did not want to accommodate us. We tried to get on the high chairs and couldn't. We were either going to stand or need to leave. The manager could care less. The graduates mom stepped in and tried to reason and was treated so rudely by this manager. Eventually the bartender or busboy accommodated us and we sat at a small side table. Not before the manager told the graduates mom that because of that she would be taking a high top table away because we took a side table. Omg. It was so embarrassing to see this unfold. Coming from a family of restaurant owners this should have never happened. Just for the mere fact that the ADA could easily be brought in to this due to the lack of accommodations for a person with disabilities. I can't even start about the food. The quality is pretty poor. Nothing tasted fresh. It was mediocre at best. The best items were the salads. Oh and when asked for bread or some sort of bread service. We were denied and told we do not have bread for sale. An Italian restaurant and no bread. I chuckled at first thinking the waiter was trying to be funny. He just walked away. We never were checked on and left to get up and refill my own water and get my own fork. I understand that the owners are out of state but they really need to retrain their staff and check in on their food quality as well as accommodations for those with disabilities. I will never recommend this place or ever return. Homeslice (Dana Point, CA): Founded and owned by local residents Fisher and Kegan. read more

Came here on a Sunday around 1pm because the other pizza place we wanted to try was busy. Found this place on yelp and upon our arrival, the restaurant was empty. The host made us wait until our entire party was here to be seated. Our server was friendly and informative. He recommended some items for us. We ordered two pizzas, a Caesar salad and two wings to share. I enjoyed both pizzas. We had one white and one red pie. They were both thin crusts and flavorful. My Smokey passion was just okay. I would say this place is a chill place to hang out and have some drinks on a Sunday. read more

We stopped in to grab a drink and dine at the bar. She liked her drink and my beer was cold, unfortunately so was the service. The bartender made a decent drink but barked at another employee and was really curt. We ended up going across the way for dinner. Maybe we caught them on a bad day, but it has kinda stuck with me. read more

Nice place in heart of DP lantern district. Great ambiance. We ordered the crispy cauliflower gnocchi. They were pretty good. Nice touch of truffle oil on them-yum. The fungi pizza was light and again drizzled with truffle oil- perfect. Kayley our server was sweet and attentive. Good place with plenty of seating options inside and out. read more

It's decent food. The pizza is mid compared to the really great spots close by (truly, Doho), but the wings and sandwiches are dang good. I was deeply annoyed I asked for ranch for my fries and they brought a giant side and charged me $2. Would be a 4 star review otherwise. No one needs a soup bowl of ranch or to be charged extra. read more

This is a restaurant that I keep passing in Dana Point and wanting to try...finally tonight. I got my chance! I love that this restaurant is easy to get to, and that there's plenty of parking in the parking structure right across the street. I also love the positioning of this restaurant. It's located on Del Prado in one of the new buildings down the middle of the street. It has both indoor and outdoor seating, which is so nice because you can bring your dog with you! Another great feature of this restaurant is that all the walls are garage doors that pull up to let in a nice ocean breeze. We happened to get there early enough to get seated right away but if you come later and you have to wait, they have an adorable outdoor seating area that surrounds a fire pit to keep you warm while you wait. My friend and I had just finished a big hike and were starving so we started with Brick Oven Artichokes, and the Polpette. My cocktail of choice was: Cool Out Homey which was very refreshing and delicious! My friend started with the Pina Brava which she thought was "ok". One thing that I thought was really nice was that the owner of the restaurant brought out our appetizers and introduced himself. I do love that when restaurant owners are involved and engage with their clientele...it definitely brings that neighborhood feeling to your dining experience!! Next up we switched gears to what we came for.... Pizza!! We chose the Diavolo but added basil... it was delicious! For us ordering one pizza to split worked out well, but if you can eat a lot or you haven't had appetizers, it might not be enough food. I will say that absolutely everything that the people around us ordered and every dish that walked past us look delicious! I feel like it's a good restaurant if you have a large group so you can order a lot of different things to share. We finished up with a second round of cocktails and mixed it up a bit... I had the Eternally Grapefruit, and my friend switched to Juiced This Once... both were delicious! Oh, and because the table next to us ordered dessert that looked so delicious we had to order dessert!! So.... our last course was: Homeslice Pana Cotta... a delicious and creamy Nutella Pana Cotta. So good!! read more

Such a nice way to the a day at the beach here! We got a few drinks (mixed drinks were pretty strong) Caesar salad, wings, meatballs, and the pep, Hawaiian, and marg pizza. The meatballs were spectacular!! Wings and salad pretty standard. The pizzas are good, light crust, def on the pricier side. However the "Hawaiian" one I didn't like the sausage and pineapples were so small LOL. Also the ranch, wasn't the best! It didn't seem like there was buttermilk in there Service was good, however the tables there are pretty small. So it's hard to order a lot of food/you're close to other ppl eating read more

We've been to Homeslice several times now, and it never disappoints. The crust is perfect--soft, chewy, and never burnt - it's my favorite pizza in South Orange County. Honestly, you just can't go wrong with their pizzas! We've tried a bit of everything: the Pepperoni, Maximus, and Western pizzas, the Spinach & Artichoke and Pepperoni calzones, their salads, and the side of garlic roasted artichokes. Everything has been delicious, but the pizza dough is the real star. On top of the amazing food, the service is always wonderful. I love this place and highly recommend it! read more

Nice casual pizza place in Dana Point. The crust of the pizza is really good. I've been here a couple times now and the white pizza was just ok - too much ground pepper. The Margherita was really good and the baked burrata was really good too. Good sauce and mozzarella. The staff is friendly and the vibe is nice. It's moderately priced. Parking can be tough. read more

This place is pretty bad. The burrata isn't actual burrata. Tomatoes on salad aren't good quality (tomatoes are in season and could be beautiful)...hey "chef" apples are out of season. Artichokes definitely come from a can. Pizza dough is the gross kind that sits in your belly and doesn't digest well and is undercooked. Pasta is so bad overcooked and the sauce is definitely from a jar. Basically if you know what good food and care about quality ingredients this is not the place for you. Not sure how they manage to stay so busy. Seemingly, most people in Dana Point don't know the difference. Consider yourself warned. Also terrible service...every single dish was delivered at the same time. Literally disgusting. read more

This restaurant took me by surprise. I've always driven past it, but I've never stopped in to see what it's about. Instantly, as we walk up, we were greeted by some friendly hosts who sat us immediately. They have indoor seating and outdoor seating. I ordered an appetizer and we enjoyed a pepperoni pizza for dinner. Everything was absolutely delicious, one of my favorite pizzas in Orange County. The restaurant is super pretty, giving a laid-back feel with high-quality food. They have low top tables and high top as well, giving that sports bar feel. Can't wait to come back! read more

Great little place with good pizza came in on a Saturday afternoon and had the perfect pizza with pepperoni and a glass of wine with my friend. Staff is super friendly and we were seated immediately the wine selection does not list the region of wines so that was my only negative and waiter didn't know either nice enough to let me try sample but still odd. read more

Had dinner here this past weekend with my family. It was our first time in. We were sat just after 6pm. We had no wait for a table. Everyone from the staff to the food was wonderful! Our waiter was available when we needed water refills which my daughter needed a lot of plus any other requests. The food was flavorful! The pizza is thin crust and cooked to perfection. If we happen to be down in the area again I would definitely pay them another visit. The food was so good I didn't take any pictures. read more

SAVE YOUR MONEY & APPETITE: Not sure which was worse, the pizza or the service. The Diavolo pizza tasted like a pound of salt on dried bread. Had one slice, when I finally tracked down the waiter they asked 'do you want a box' I said 'no, not my favorite', and no follow up as to 'why' or even a apology or offer to take it off the check. Save your money, way better options for pizza in Dana Point. read more

3.5 star The restaurant has a good vibe with friendly services. Food was just okay, and the portion was small for its price. My friend and I (and her 3 yo daughter) ordered the chopped salad, a cheese pizza, and the penne pasta and then had to add the western pizza because we didn't feel like we had enough food. Chopped salad $18 The western $22 Penne pasta $17 The location is great, but maybe better for drinks than food. read more

Was in town for couple of days and stumbled on this place late Tuesday night. It was four of us including two kids 9, 13. Trevor (I think) was our waiter and he was great! He explained the menu well and made some great suggestions. Calamari and the meatball appetizers were a must! My kids are picky eaters but they loved their meals too, pizza and Mac & Cheese. Wife had the Lasagna which she loved. I had the Ahi Tuna, wasn't my favorite but to Travis' credit he said it wasn't his favorite either but I still ordered it. Everything else was great, highly recommend. read more

We got takeout, I got the pepperoni pizza, and I had some of my sister's penne alka vodka pasta, and it was so good! I loved how authentic the pizza was and I enjoyed the mozzarella, and the crust was so good too! I also appreciated how flavorful the pasta was! 5/5 stars for sure! read more

had a really disappointing experience at Home Slice. We walked in, sat down, and were left waiting without anyone greeting us or acknowledging that we had arrived. The waiter looked over at us multiple times but never came to help or check on us. I eventually went to the manager to explain what happened, hoping the situation would be addressed. Unfortunately, instead of apologizing or trying to make things right, she only offered explanations that didn't resolve the issue. Overall, the service was very poor and the experience left a bad impression. I wouldn't returnnnnn read more

My girlfriend and I went at 5 o'clock ordered two large glasses of wine and two food orders, at 6:30. The manager comes over to our table and says if you are going to have any more wine, you need to leave your table and go to the bar. My girlfriend was speechless. I answered the manager and told him no we are not moving to the bar and that it was very rude of him to suggest that he kept insisting that we already have been sitting at the table for one hour and a half, and there are other people waiting to sit and we need to leave the table. Needless to say we paid our check. We left tip to the waiter because it was not his fault. And that's all I'm going to say. read more

Walked into homeslice after being turned away with a 2 hour wait from a competitor pizza place up the street. Boy was that the best thing that happened. This spot is a gem. The food was outstanding.

Wow!!! The food here is delicious!!! We had the pizza with pineapples on top and it was amazing! The gnocchi had a perfect kick to it with a savory sauce. The calamari was crispy and perfect! What a treat for dinner!! Many other menu items we Al wanted to try but didn't have room for more food... We aren't too far from Orange County and would love to come back to enjoy other menu items! The staff checked in on us often, drinks were topped off and food delivered hot and fresh. The patio dining area is open and airy with heaters outside for chili Days/nights. The bar area surrounded with tv monitors focused on baseball, basketball and hockey games. Additionally pub tables and chairs surrounding the bar offering warmer spaces and tv access. There is one shared restroom that was well kept and stocked. Street parking and parking lots surround the shops and restaurants in the areas. read more

My family and I are in town for my wedding and decided to go to The Shwack for dinner. Unfortunately, they were closing at 8:30 instead of the posted time of 9, so we had to make a quick pivot. They recommended their sister restaurant, Homeslice. The manager got our party of 12 seated, even with the limited seating. Beyond that, the service was great, and the pizza was bomb! We had the MVP, and it was delicious! I would absolutely recommend this place, and thank you Mark for taking care of us! read more

Food was amazing, servers are awesome, attentive and accommodating to my seating requests, overall it was a great experience in a nice restaurant with outdoor seating. We enjoyed pizza, steak, and gnocchi. Everything was cooked perfectly, seasoned and plated pleasantly. Definitely coming back here read more

Okay, so let's start with the service and location, both of which are great. Prime real estate, and staff is attentive and friendly. What drops the rating down a few notches is the food. For the type of place this is trying to be (a little more upscale pizzeria), the staff/chefs really need to sit down and try their own food. The 'Roots' salad has fresh ingredients, but they needed something to bring all of the flavors together. Possibly a better dressing rather than just olive oil. Also, for $13 (albeit I understand it's the lunch portion), a normal size salad would have been justified, but this was like 4-5 bites. I get it, rent it high, and they need profits. The 'Maximus' pizza has the flavor, and I do enjoy a thin pizza, but the undercarriage is lacking a nice charred crisp. Not to mention for $22, you can go to aPizza Doho and get a larger pizza for the price. Other than that, I would suggest looking into better bar chairs, not these plastic 'looks nice, feels flimsy' type of furniture. Overall, Homeslice has the potential to be a great pizzeria, just needs a few tweaks. read more

Great service good food good atmosphere five stars thank you Anthony great service good Family atmosphere and grapefruit Anthony Martino

Horrible employees from the waiter to the manager. Brian is HORRIBLE and rude. Won't ever go back!

The pizza was amazing!!! Make sure to get the hot honey on top of it. The grapefruit martini was a 10/10. We sat outside in the patio area but there was sufficient amount of heaters that made it feel like we were sitting inside. The inside area was a nice vibe with tv's. Check out this spot, service was welcoming! read more

Went to Homeslice last night for the 1st time for their Happy Hour. Fernando the bartender and our waiter was terrific. The drinks 4 of us were beautiful pours and delicious.

Fernando is only there on Thursdays. Definitely coming back. read more

My husband loves the regular crust pizza, and I LOVE their gluten free crust! I'm also grateful for the fact that this restaurant only uses olive oil/other high-quality oils.
