Plenty of seating and TV's.

Great post surf session meat. If you're looking for a place to relax, have some pizza and watch some sports this is a great spot. The service is excellent and they get your food out quickly. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was mellow.

"Small" calzone ($20)
Brandon M.

Enormous calzone! (And it was the "small"). Service was prompt. Vibe was skater/ surfer/ reggae. Clean and chill space. The flavor was 7/10 for me by comparison to my favorite Calzone (pizza man Dan's). Got pepperoni w/ pepperoncini . Had ricotta too. Beer was good (sandbar blonde). Plenty of options on tap!

Food: Delicious pizza, love the sourdough bread on pizza and that all ingredients are healthier, yet still delicious Service: Great, you order at register and they will drop off the food. Staff is super friendly. Ambiance: Casual and fun Noteworthy: My husband who keeps up with local skateboarding legends, and still skateboards himself, wanted to come to this pizza place because Mike McGill was a part of it. When we were eating, my husband sees him & I said, let's ask him if he'll take a picture with you. Not only did he take a picture, he told us about the restaurant, ingredients, how his family is involved and brought us some honey and ranch to try on our pizza (all delicious on pizza) and was such a nice guy! We will definitely bring our friends to try our new favorite pizza place and thank you Mike for making us feel welcome at your restaurant

Such a rad pizza spot. Great quality meats and house made sourdough crust!! Everything we ordered was delicious. Really a fan of their crust and quality of all of their ingredients. You can order pizza by the slice or a whole pie. They have a good selection of pizzas so there's bound to be something for everyone. Interior seating is limited it there's ample seating outside with heaters above. There is also a bar seating inside. Since we were dining in, the server took our order at our table. She was sweet, friendly, and patient while we tried to figure out what to order. The raddest part of our visit was that Mike McGill was there and brought out the pizza condiments like no big deal. He was super chill and we were able to talk to him for a bit. Seems like a really solid down to earth dude. Will definitely be coming back!

Boomzogood!! Friends Jerome and Suki posted this place a while back. Coming from inland and looking for tasty food, we found it. The service was and is great every time. The location and vibe is very chill. Outside seating is plentiful. Before we head back inland, we treat ourselves to the best sourdough pizza in SoCal. Ask for a little ranch to dip and you MUST ask for the hot-honey to drizzle fo'shizzle!! @theBurg3erJudg3 approved:;)

Patio
Narin J.

Gave Johnny Radz a try today and liked it! The space has a nice open feel with bar seating and plenty of patio space. We had a half cheese and pepperoni pizza and a gluten free margarita. I also had a blackberry seltzer. They have some sandwiches additionally on the menu. My husband is from NY so he is picky about pizza and he really liked the style! My son said the pepperoni was not too spicy. The gluten-free Margherita was just OK. I prefer a Margherita with tomato sauce and fresh mozzarella and this is one just had some olive oil. I think I would try a different type of pizza next time, but we will be back. I love the addition to Leucadia

Biggie Approved!

Biggie Approved! Local Powell & Peralta skateboard legend Mike McGill has a stake in this super cool dog friendly pizza joint! We've been to Johnny Radz 3 times so far! Pizza is amazing with plenty of toppings to choose from! The crust is light and crispy! Our favorite pizzas are the Meaty pizza with fresh sliced jalapeños on half and the Sausage and Peppers pizza. Johnny Radz has a decent beer selection on draft and also offer a couple wine options. There are plenty of TV's both inside and outside the restaurant! Next time you're in Leucadia stop in and check it out! Oh and they also sell pizza by the slice!

Skateboards from the pros of my time
Vince P.

Definitely a must stop when in so cal. Good pizza, decent prices, good ingredients and if you are a fan of skateboarding lots of nostalgia here. Lots of space for parties as well. My son loved the pizza and ate nearly half by himself.

This place is awesome! The boys who work there are perfect. Pizza and beer went nuts. Service is 10/10!

Pizza slices and beers

We got a slice of pep, a slice of hot honey, a slice of bbq chicken, a small Cesar salad, an order of meatballs, and two draft beers. One bite in we could tell this pizza was something special. The ingredients are high quality and every slice was savored. The salad dressing was light, tangy, creamy, and the lettuce was cold and crunchy. The meatballs were good - could use a little more seasoning but we would order again! Johnny Radz is clean and spacious, with seating options indoors and outdoors. The staff member who helped us explained everything well. We will be back!

Carlsbad Softball Party

We held our softball party here this past weekend. Pizzas were huge and delicious! Beers were cold and great selection of other foods like salads and sandwhiches. Lots of space and nice, welcoming staff! Thanks for such a fun time and look forward to returning soon!

Christina M.

Absolutely love this place. They have a great choice of beers and their pizza is delicious. Customer service was on point. A must try. They sell by the slice. Reasonably priced.

Hawaiian pizza. If I had to rate the pizza 1-10 it would be a 7.

I think this is the closest thing to pizza from the east coast. Probably my favorite spot in Encinitas. Repeat customer.

BIERGARDEN @ ENCINITAS…read more Parking can be a little difficult since this spot is located right on the main strip in Encinitas. There's parallel street parking throughout the area, so you might get lucky and find a spot nearby. I ended up parking on one of the side streets, which worked out perfectly. I came here on a Sunday afternoon, and it was definitely busy. We had to wait a little while for a table because several tables still needed to be cleaned before they could seat new guests. The staff was incredibly friendly, though, and we were seated as soon as they could. It did take about 15 minutes before a server was able to come over and take our order, but the restaurant was completely packed, so it's something to keep in mind if you're in a hurry. After spending the day at the beach, we were really just in the mood for drinks. I ordered the Blood Orange Margarita, which can be served with Tajín, sea salt, or no rim at all. It was really good and definitely on the stronger side, which I appreciated. My only complaint was that there was a bit too much ice, but the flavor itself was great. The atmosphere is what really makes this place stand out. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, large open windows that let in plenty of fresh air, and a fun, lively vibe that makes it a great place to relax after a beach day. Overall, I'd definitely come back for the ambiance and cocktails, just be prepared for a little wait if you visit during peak hours.

My mother and I came here for lunch on a Tuesday in June. We both received burgers, she asked for…read moreonion rings instead of fries and I asked for a Caesar salad instead of fries. My burger had very little flavor. The meat was dry, it was still edible just wouldn't order it again. The Caesar salad was fantastic!!!! The lettuce was amazing and the dressing was absolutely delicious. My mother ordered the fig burger with a side of onion rings and instead she got fries and there was no goat cheese on the burger. However she still loved the burger. Also all the pictures online show that they have WAFFLE FRIES - THEY DO NOT. The service was good and they were helpful in fixing the issues with the onion rings. Ambiance is very loud being right on the 101 but it's not terrible.

And our server was fantastic. So why, you might ask, only 4 stars in my review. Two reasons: 1). Management has prohibited giving a splash of a beer for someone to sample. Bottom line is that I wanted to order a pint of beer, but I wanted a splash of a couple of beers to try to make my decision. They refused, saying that one must buy a 5oz taster if one wants to taste the beer. I find that policy offensive. In the end I bought a taster to taste the Chuuurch, and then bought an additional pint after. It just seems nickel and dimey, and would be asking to an ice cream place not allowing one to sample their ice creams before buying a cone. I hope management reconsiders this policy. 2. My wife got the Hot Mess Fries and was disappointed not only in the flavor, but also in the misleading advertising. On the menu it specifically said that there was bacon in the fries, but in fact what they put on the fries was either chunks of ham or "Canadian bacon" (which as we all know is a very different thing from "bacon"). If they were or of regular bacon, the kitchen should have told the server this so he could have asked her if she wanted ham as a substitute. And, of they always use ham instead of bacon, them the menu needs to be changed to reflect that.
