Breadsticks with sides of whipped honey butter, ranch dressing, and nacho cheese.
Bess B.

What a hidden gem of a pizza parlor! It doesn't look big from the outside, but as you enter the building, you can see that it's pretty huge. They've got a big dining area, banquet rooms, and a game room. Great place to host a birthday party. I was recommended the breadsticks and whipped honey butter, ranch, and nacho cheese. Honestly, if this was all I had to order, this was a meal all in itself! The bread was hot, fresh, and soft on the inside. Each bite was like a warm pillow in my mouth. My coworker also recommended the Peanut Butter Pepperoni Pizza. The last time I had one was at John's Incredible Pizza in Bakersfield several years ago. Apparently, this pizza joint is THE original John's and the first owner was the one who created John's Incredible. Also, fun fact....Mark Hoppus (from Blink 182) used to work here when he was in high school. Would I come back to try the other pizzas? Of course I would! That and some of the delicious looking sandwiches I read on the menu. Also heard their ice cream is homemade and top notch. Also, shout out to Karen our server who was an absolute peach. She was so friendly and made sure we were taken care of.

Oreo Ice Cream and Reese's Ice Cream

This place is just great! I've had some really delicious pizza in OC/LA areas, so when I came to this small town I did not think anything in town could top that. However, John's Pizzas are made to perfection every single time I stop by! It's literally like the pizza you see in the Goofy movie!! When you pull a slice apart the cheese doesn't rip right away, it's crazy! But I don't think it's a bad thing at all. The service is incredible. They are ALWAYS so sweet and helpful and patient with me, my family, & friends. Also, the honey butter is DELICIOUS with the breadsticks. The Oreo ice cream is my favorite but they have many flavored options to choose from. I would 10/10 recommend this place for birthdays, quick dinners, lunches, etc. they have a great menu and different pizza size options to choose from. & the food is just amazing! The overall restaurant is clean and very spacious & they have a nice arcade for the kids.

Servers were nice but the food was extremely disappointing. Salad was okay. Pizza was undercooked / doughy and the toppings fell off everytime we tried to grab a slice. Ordered breadsticks we never got. Nachos were the worst of all. Not a single whole chip on the entire plate, they dumped the bottom of the bag onto the plate so it was full of crumbs, toppings added that I asked to not be on there, gross canned plasticky cheese, and the portion was tiny. Even my kids wouldn't eat it. I expected much more for the high price, not worth it at all!

Dry and hard bread sticks from John's Pizza
Nadine D.

On 7/14/25 I called in for 2 orders of bread sticks, 2 cheeses & 2 honey butter. I live about 30 minutes away from them. I called in my order once i got into town, they told me it would be about 20 minutes. It was around 7 pm, they close at 8. I didn't bother to check them for freshness. Big mistake, they were hard and dry. The restaurant was already closed when I realized this. I waited until the next day to call and complain. The person I talked to told me that because I didn't check them when I got them and didn't call when I got them that they couldn't do anything about it. I asked the girl, "Am I supposed to check my items for freshness before I leave?" Her reply, "Yes, or you could ask us to do it." So, needless to say, I told her she won't be getting my business again. They sure have gone down hill from 2 years ago when I left a review on their page. I will be letting friends know about this experience.

The house pizza

John's Pizza was a surprise find in Ridgecrest. Pizza crust was super soft with really good sauce and toppings. The service was very friendly and efficient. Would return if I am in the area.

Gaming area

For those old school high desert folks, we decided to make the trek to Ridgecrest to travel back in time and reminisce about the good old days of John's Pizza. The taste of the breadsticks, pizza and home made ice cream brought us back to the 80's when life was good...food, service and ambiance were all great!

Great bread sticks, but over priced food and the play center is still under construction for 3 years or more now...

Stopping on my way to Anaheim and Ale's came up as one of the highest rated places. It was…read moredefinitely decent. Just gotta drop a star because our waitress was a bit short and irritable, and the food was really nothing crazy amazing. Ended up having the shrimp and lobster fries appetizer which was pretty yummy, the shrimp on it is the best part. Even the kids loved the fries and ended up also splitting a chicken sandwich that was pretty basic, but cooked well and had a tasty bun. Wife and I split a pastrami burger, and gotta say the pastrami was really good, that was a great choice. It had a bunch of creamy cheese sauce on it as well and was gone in seconds. Ambiance was fine, place was really clean, and service was SUPER QUICK. One critique is when we asked for extra plates to split out food, the waitress told us they were out of plates because they used them all on the party that was in there. This was at max a party of 10, and the restaurant had to only have 10 more people in it total. Kinda weird to be out of plates at 20% capacity... she did end up getting us additional "trays" to use. Totally fine, just a bit odd. All in all, if you need some quick grub, stop in here on your way through. Price was pretty fair, 2 burgers, and an appetizer with ice teas for $50. Decent.

Absolutely amazing staff!! Quick, attentive, friendly and efficient!!…read more The food? Chef's kiss. A must for anyone who loves seafood. But fear not, my land-loving carnivores -- their burgers are legit too. The drinks? On point. I'm convinced they put magic (and possibly happiness) in their margaritas -- best in town, hands down. The vibe? Laid-back, spacious, and beachy enough that you'll forget the nearest coastline is hundreds of miles away. Close your eyes and you might just hear seagulls... or maybe that's just me after round two of margaritas. In short -- great food, great drinks, great vibes. If you leave here unhappy, you probably ordered water.
