My go to place used to be Flyers before it shut down. I have tried all over the island for good ruben sandwiches and lave louie's is by far the best on the island. The place has been upgraded and is a great place to sit down and eat and watch a game. The onion rings are out of this world! The wife loves the chicken ceasar salad and the wrap. I think next time we will have to try the pizza. This is my new go to place to eat. read more

Lava Louie's - Pizza Near Me - Oak Harbor, Washington

I have visited two more times since my first visit as I'm up in Oak Harbor for business/personal reasons on a regular basis lately. Visit #2 was a lunch visit where my dining partner had wings and beer, and I had a French dip sandwich. My dining partner enjoyed his wings more than I enjoyed my sandwich. I visited again a week and a half later with the friend I first visited with several weeks back. He ordered a calzone again and he very much enjoyed it again. I ordered the baked spaghetti which was delicious - generous cheese, a zingy garlicky sauce, and a huge portion. We each took home more than half of our meals. I bet we'll be back again ! read more

Going to go ahead and say it, Lava Louie's...FIRE. We came in for a half marathon and ate here the night before. We were so so happy with the food. It came out hot and ready and the woman who served us was very nice. The inside is definitely unique. Feels like it turns into a club at night but hey we just needed some good food and we got it. Cheers! read more

Really impressed and pleased with this place. We came early on a weekday for lunch, so the place was fairly quiet in the main dining room. There were several customers playing pool in the other room. The waitress served us promptly and with friendly service! The ambiance feels like a bar, but wow I was really delighted with the food. It was just amazing, totally delicious. The fried mac and cheese bites I will be thinking about forever, I wish I had this place in my own town. The fries were very good and the garlic knots were also very good. The fish and chips was great! If I ever come back to Oak Harbor I would definitely want to stop by here again, and if I lived here I am sure I would be a regular. read more

I heard that a new pizza joint was open where Oak Harbor Lounge used to be. So, I decided to walk down Pioneer and experience Lava Louie's Pizza. The inside was worn, but clean. It was quiet inside, probably because other than me there were only two customers. I decided to sit at the bar and order my food from the bartender. After looking at the menu I decided to order the Ring of Fire pizza. I enjoy spicy food and was prepared to be disappointed at the spice level even though the ingredients are pepperoni, sausage, jalapeno, and habanero! I am very pleased to say that not only was I NOT disappointed at the spice level, but the pizza was nicely cooked and tasted great! I was also pleased that the background music all seemed to be classic rock from the 70's and 80's, my favorite genre of music!! I had a very enjoyable lunch at Lava Louie's read more

I've had this place a couple of times now and I always think it's going to be delicious because of the pictures but I leave disappointed. So far I have tried the garlic chicken pizza, fried pickles, Philly cheesesteak, and a calzone. Out of all those my favorite was the fried pickles and ranch. I don't know if the food is not being made with love or the right seasonings but in my opinion it's very bland and not memorable. The service is always interesting and slow paced whereas the ambiance is cool and a vibe with the music they play. I want to like it but I'm just not impressed! read more

Group of four went in a cold rainy Monday. The place was empty so it was quick to be seated. We ordered a large pizza and boneless wings. The boneless wings were basic chicken bites, lacked flavor and meat. The pizza was really good and what we really came for. Eight slices in a large and perfect for each of us to get two nice sized pieces. There was a pool table in the bar area, which cost $.50 a game, but we didn't take the time to play. Maybe next time. read more

Rainy day discount! What a nice surprise. We also requested they show the sounders game which they were able to up on the big screen. We were camping in the area and appreciated the place to hang out, get some food, and watch the game. Food was great - real chicken strips, good tots, and grinders. read more

This is a great place for Italian food. It's a clean area to eat, good place for a family feast there is a bar section on the right side of the room. The customer service is professional. The food took a while to come to us, we waited about 45 minute for our food to come so make sure you are ready to be there for at least an hour when you go. However, it was worth the wait and worth the money, the Portions are huge and taste great. If you are looking for a great hot meal and want to walk out feeling fulfilled this is the place. read more

Came in with family for some pizza. Tried the 16 inch meat combo and it was good. Also had some mozz sticks and wings. Last available wings was just that. But still decent. Service was friendly and atmosphere was pub vibe. Ambiance is college bar type. Many regular customers. Prices were reasonable for this location. Washed the meal down with pop and Guinness stout on tap. Parking can be tight at this location Try it you'll like it! read more

Came for lunch, we hadn't been here since the new ownership/renaming of the restaurant. Menu pricing is high, even for inflation, not sure how a sandwich with fries can cost $20? I had the turkey club. It was the most dry sandwich I've ever had in my entire life! The bread was toasted to a crisp, the bacon was so crunchy and brittle. There was no flavor. Fries were good though! My husband had a small Caesar salad and ordered 6 wings. The wings were flavorless and soaked in a pool of grease! The waitress was nice but only checked on us once briefly. We also waited 30 minutes for our food in a completely empty restaurant. My husband couldn't eat the wings as they were totally soaked in oil and luckily the waitress took them off our bill. Was hoping to have a good experience as we've heard good things about this place and rarely try new spots, a huge bummer! We won't be back. read more

Ok, I am not comparing this to upper East coast pizza. I ordered their mushroom, sausage and pepperoni pizza and it was loaded with all of the above. Not too much sauce and it is a solid pizza. Hands above the chain pizza places in Oak Harbor. The interior is... Reminiscent of a dive bar but that aside, solid pizza and definitely the best in Oak Harbor. read more

Lava Louie's - Sausage, mushroom and pepperoni 8 inch. - Pizza Near Me - Oak Harbor, Washington

I'm going to start with the negative just because it was that bad... and despite how bad it was, everything that followed was AMAZING! THE SALAD... don't get the CAESER SALAD... should you feel compelled to get the salad because you want fresh and healthy greens to go with the pizza... maybe get your greens baked into your pie?! They might be healthier! The Caeser dressing was about as thick as pudding and applied in such an amount that our salad ate like pudding! I don't know what went wrong, but it seemed like the dressing sat out long enough that it evaporated and just left a gloppy paste like substance behind... or somehow they double...nay... triple dressed my greens... two days ago. There, enough said... they were awful... don't get a salad... but if you do... ask for light dressing or dressing on the side. Also, croutons, although made from their garlic knots...were rocks. Even with soaking in dressing... they were not edible. Now, everything else was FANTASTIC! The stuffed garlic knots are LEGENDARY! We killed a dozen in no time flat and wanted more! Pasta dishes and crap salad came with plain garlic knots... so that helped redeem aforementioned salad. The pasta was cooked perfectly... sauce was a bit thick but tasty. Now the pizza... whoever is back there slinging the dough is killing it! Fantastic crust... soft and crisp with a nice chew! I would be happy eating a plain crust (see previous notes regarding garlic knots ! Then come the toppings! We had three different options at our table and all were really good! My favorite pizza combination has always been Pepperoni and Jalapeño! The aptly named RING OF FIRE quickly caught my attention as it added habanero to the mix...I did not fully contemplate what the repercussions were... I mean, yeah... I'm getting a habanero pizza... but I didn't really think about the fact that I was eating a HABANERO PIZZA! And they weren't playing around... not only was there a mountain of jalapeños on each slice... but lots of habanero slices to boot! Rarely does an attempt at hot and spicy perform so well! I hurt...I may have cried a little...I may have decided at 3 am that I'm too old for this shit... but at the end of the day... we thoroughly enjoyed all things baked! Just avoid the salad... read more

First time at this restaurant for breakfast , we walk in and here is the bartender on her phone texting and telling us to seat anywhere while she is still texting, zero customer service, waitress seemed sweet but obviously not been trained.. took 30 minutes for French toast and pancakes to come, FT were tasteless and lukewarm, Pancakes were ok..waitress brought her CC machine at the table to pay, she did not bother to clear the table . read more

Pizza was great, We'll be back. It was midweek and not crowded thus minimal staffing. We sat at the bar so had no problems, but I could see how it would be slow if you sat in a booth out of sight. read more
