    Tina's Pizza Menu
    Angela R.

    Linden Square is officially open and I already want to go back! The whole layout and design of this place is such a great vibe all around. Located in the quaint town of Carpinteria; which is about 10-15 minutes from Santa Barbara. This Square food hall offers 3 of the best restaurants well known in Santa Barbara, such as Corazon Cocina, Third Window, and Tina's Pizza aka Bettina. Dart Coffee is also on the premises for the coffee lovers. For food, I decided to order pizza because I had been craving it. Tina's pizza is the little sister restaurant to Bettina located in Montecito; which was recently featured on Guy Fieri's show. The pizza is one of my favorites in town! I tried the pepperoni this time and it was delicious. They don't skimp on the pepperoni here. They are little crispy cups of heaven. The dough is perfectly charred and chewy. Third window brewery offers their famous smash burgers, fries, salads, tap beer and more. Then there's Michelin star Corazon Cocina bringing Tulum vibes with their beautiful outdoor bar. They offer Mexican cuisine which never disappoints! I didn't order food, but I ordered a passion fruit Margarita and it was tangy and refreshing. Definitely coming back for the food next time. There's plenty of seating in the courtyard that makes you feel as if you're at a hotel resort. I went up to the second level which was beautiful! Offering more seating for bigger groups. They also have numerous fireplaces stationed throughout the area. I'm sure they look pretty at night! Overall, I'm so happy Linden Square is finally open. Looking forward to going back soon!

    Stopped by Linden Square on a sunny Friday--had some pizza from Tina's, a burger and beers from Third Window, and chilled out with some good tunes. Great spot to hang out. Check out my visit @sosalicious805 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DKTJO2jPBAu/?igsh=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ==

    Really wanted to love this! But unfortunately left feeling underwhelmed and like I spent too much money :/ Came on a Wednesday evening with friends. The place is great, plenty of outdoor seating. We ordered passion fruit margaritas from Corazon Cocina, came to $15 for a small plastic cup. My friends spent $24 on a large. We went to sit and waited almost 20 minutes for just a margarita, no food. They were okay! A bit tart, couldn't taste any tequila. Then ordered a pizza from Tina's. Was supppeerr excited to try since I've heard great things about Bettina's in SB and have always been wanting to go. Shared the mushroom pizza which came to a steep $30 for a 12 inch pie. Ranch was an extra $2. Had to pass. The pizza was quite a long wait, and when it finally came it looked delicious but did not taste as good as it looked. It was okay, not bad at all, just not what I expected from a highly reviewed spot. It was pretty bland and almost wish I had salt to put on it. Crust was good. Honestly couldn't stop thinking about my other fav pizza spot in SB while eating it ... All in all don't think I'd feel the need to return unless I was grabbing just a beer to meet a friend on a nice day.

    Delicious food, great ambience, dog friendly and lots of parking. Definitely going back.

    Good food, definitely coming back for to try the burger spot or the Mexican food. Pizza was really good but I don't understand I ordered the meatlovers one and this is the one I got? I didn't see any sausage or any other toppings on it? Sure the place is brand new but I don't know if I got the right one or not? Are all the pizzas the same?! I'm so confused. Service was fast pace I thought the side of the registers were free food but they don't list a cannoli on the menu so I thought it was just a free welcome take snack but nope for 2 cannolis it's $10 bucks I think Tina the owner had told me before I sat back down. Don't let your little ones take the so free desert sitting their fool you lol! Ambiance is croweded for sure they're so line so hopefully you don't have to cut in line or anybody but very happy to have a 5th pizza joint in Carp! It feels so much like the Grove in LA. Definitely a must try and stop if you're hungry and you can't find anything else to eat. The smoker from the burger place smells amazing when walking by the center of the square.

    Such a cute and fun space! Rode our bikes for a dinner and some drinks. Love that you have options between pizzas, burgers and Mexican food. We didn't try out the Mexican food but the pizza and burger we got were to die for. Also the fries were amazing and you can't skip out on them. Both indoor and outdoor seating is available. Our burger came out super fast and our pizza took a while but was worth it. Highly recommend this spot for a fun a night out!

    My friends and I decided to have a Rummikub session while we waited for our pizza.

    I am a local so I knew all the restaurants there and it's literally the top 3 in town. I am so excited to have this beautiful hang out place in our community. I have gone 3 times already. It's my new meet up spot after a lazy beach day. It's a place that reminds you "Life is good".

    I am a fan of the new Linden Square. We went on a week day and were able to find street parking pretty easily. There are currently 3 great food options (Corazon Cocina, Tina's Pizza, and Third Window Brewing). All are counter ordering, and then you can sit anywhere around the square. There are plenty of tables and seating. It's decorated beautifully! It honestly reminds me of a resort. We chose to eat at Corazon Cocina and got a beer at the Third Window Brewing. The food was fantastic and quick, and the beer was pretty good, too. The women's restroom was very clean, and I was happy they had a nice changing table for my baby. We walked around to see the other businesses in the square. There is a cute surf shop (Channel Islands Surfboards) that is also worth checking out. Hopefully, they end up adding some more cool stuff there.

We waited about 15 minutes until one of the servers came to take our drink order and then we sat for a half hour before anyone came to take our food order. And the only reason the guy came over was because I kind of gave some eye contact. He was very nice and apologized for the wait. And I sure wish he would've written down our order because it came out totally wrong. We ordered an extra patty on the side, it was missing. They gave me ranch dressing for my salad and I ordered balsamic. They forgot our sweet potato fries so we mentioned it to the runner who served us and they didn't come out until our food was almost all eaten and they still charged us for it! Crappy customer service! Then we waited way too long for the check and I had to go find someone to ask for it. This was the longest stop for a burger ever! Seriously you guys need to pull it together! We've dined here twice before and never experienced issues like this. We came from Ventura as we prefer it over the one near us so this was not worth the drive. It just seemed like a flaky night of unorganized everything! Probably won't bother making the trip again.

Wife went for the Crimson Horizon, and she enjoued it. I got a sip and it was smoother butterier than the Firestone cali squeeze? I tried the Avocado Honey Ale since can't go wrong with description of amber honey ale! Was told it was a version of their kolsch with local honey. Wow, it was smooth with a bit of sweet finish, so addictive!!! Still had hours to drive so couldn't just have as many as I wanted, but I checked online and seemed Albertsons sold it so figured I can just pick them up back at home. But the gentleman resting at the bar told me he delivers their beer but only up to the hills. I guess maybe available in stores up to Camarillo, but not over that hill/mountain. I had to have more of it, and they had 6 packs in the cooler for purchase so went for a pack. The green cans are such delightful vessels to hold the even more delightful liquid inside. Wife even cut out the top and using the cute cans as planters, lol! The cans poured out at home was excellent as well, very fresh and refreshing and could get tiny hints of avocado on sips. Just a great beer! After browsing the brewery, it seems avocado honey ale is their signature beer, so I got lucky to choose that from the menu, lol. While enjoying the beer, the amtrak train blew it's horn to leave from the Carpinteria station, so we rushed out to wave and enjoy seeing that go by right in front as well. I am sure the locals were shaking their heads at our excitement of seeing the train go by, one gentleman when leaving even complimented my kid's dance moves from when we were out there to greet and send off the train, lol! Awesome local spot and great folks, just a very relaxing spot to enjoy the delicious avo honey ale! Just hidden so maybe not many visitors to Carpinteria find it, but I picked it out from search for brewery and chose this over the other one on the main streets. What a find for an out of towner! Hope they can expand out or grow their delivery area, maybe get it sent to total wine which must have a distribution center. Otherwise, this is a must stop for any SB trips for sure!

We ordered the cinnamon roll to start.. was ok, texture was off for us, chalky. It was soft though. Didn't finish. Hubby ordered breakfast enchiladas, myself relleno omelet, sister a scramble of some kind, biscuit and gravy, waffle and chilaquiles. Hubby said the ratio filling wasn't there; HB burnt, verde flavor so so. I had the relleno omelette, wasn't the worst but my obriens were extra and were hella burnt, didn't really have any soft potatoes to eat. Sister said scramble wasn't great either, underwhelming flavor. My homemade jam looked weird and like it was frozen previously maybe; like chunky and watery not like picture on Yelp. Coffee was bitter. Charged us for using CC, which I feel like it's a business cost, shouldn't be customers (personal opinion across the board). And then an added a 20% gratuity for 6 ppl. Pretty high percent to assume it's deserving. Maybe 15-18% with the option to leave extra is more appropriate. Would've had it removed but family was ready to go and over it. Wouldn't have stiffed her of course, she was very kind and friendly. Just not quite a 20% auto gratuity experience. I don't think we even got a happy Father's Day from anyone.. Didn't feel like we were checked on, couldn't have the jam or potatoes fixed, just saw her at the beginning and end. my daughter did say later that she came once, but apparently the rest of us 5 missed it. Place was clean though. Different staff came out to fill coffee and get boxes. But Sorry wouldn't be back, mainly due to the flavor and taste of food. All In all, it was just okay.
