Restaurant order counter

Another stop for our family of 6 at Maggio's upon our arrival to Big Bear. We did the same last year and liked the experience. Once again, good pizza and a cold beer - exactly what we are looking for after a 2-hour drive! We came in around 1 pm and it wasn't too busy, we ordered right away and found a big table inside. The team there is friendly and efficient. It's located in the large shopping plaza along with Vons. They have Tesla superchargers in the lot now - YAY for that! Parking is plentiful, especially if you park towards the main road. The restaurant is clean and spacious. We like that they have a soda fountain machine so you can get refills as needed. Pizza was good, hot and had plenty of toppings. We didn't get the salad this time but that decent too. Their ranch is yummy, we got one side to try it with the pizza. Great place for a group.

Pepperoni pizza with half of it ruined per my wife's request.

Picked up pizza memorial weekend 2026. Super friendly over the phone to order pizza for pick up. Friendly in person for pick up. Inside was clean and busy and felt like a pizza joint! We ordered a 12" pepperoni with pineapple on half for my wife (no, pineapple does not belong on pizza, but I love my wife sooooooo...). The pizza was good, but I thought it could've used more sauce. We will definitely be back.

Packed house-- to go only!

Truly remarkable customer service -- plus they also have the best pizza in Big Bear! We ordered and drove out to pick it up. When we arrived, the place was packed, with no seating available. I believe it was because they were closing soon and couldn't seat anymore guest due to full capacity. That's when we realized they must have good pizza! We waited longer than expected, but they took care of us and apologized for the delay. The owner or manager gave us a discount for waiting past the allotted time, and we truly appreciated the gesture. Let me tell you, we all enjoyed their pizza--spot on and very cheesy. Great-tasting pizza made with high-quality ingredients, paired with extremely friendly service. The next time we're in the area, I'll be sure to stop by and dine in because they have a great vibe with fun movies playing too. Thank you again for a great pizza.

This is one of the Top pizzas I have ever eaten! The service was friendly and efficient. The seating was plentiful! This is my go to pizza place for my pizza cravings.

3 choice - Italian sausage, Canadian bacon, pepperoni

The food was really good after a hike. Caesar salad dressing was very tasty and creamy. I ate half of the serving before the pizza even came out. The staff was nice and friendly. The cheese pull on the pizza was awesome! The inside of the restaurant was not too crowded on a Sunday afternoon.

I was hesitant to come to this pizza spot because of the negative reviews but decided to give it a try. I am not a huge pizza connoisseur, I just like what I like. The pizza was good tho, 9/10 I didn't get to try the wings but my kids liked them and finished them. My daughter got the lasagna and loved it and she's a very picky eater. The funnel fries were very easy but that is expected. Okay, so food.. 9/10 Now... Service. Now I can see why the negative reviews on the service. It was very packed when we got there, we got it to go and was told 30-45min. I came back around 35-40min later to get my food and it still wasn't ready. There were a lot of people waiting. But as I was waiting I was able to see the cooks in the background, working on the pizzas. These guys were not chit chatting or standing around or just ignoring orders. NO. They were prepping them from scratch, working hard putting pizzas in and out of the oven. Pizza like this from scratch isn't done in 15-20min in that case just go to Domino's or Pizza Hut if you want something fast. My food order was done in almost exactly an hour but that was the time I heard they were giving everyone. I didn't get bad service, the girl helping me out looked unfriendly but she was very nice, just trying to get all of the ours out. I can see the people sitting waiting being exasperated bc their orders are taking forever to get to their table but please go and take a look at the back so you can have an idea of all the hard work they're putting in! I was a witness therefore I wasn't even mad about waiting... just extra hungry!!!

Original sub sandwich on Italian roll
Jo S.

Always love their original sub sandwiches. Lots of tasty meat in a fresh roll. Conveniently located by the Vons, post office, DIY, Dollar tree and laundromat

It was delicious  thick crust pepperoni pizza
Andria L.

We ordered food to take back to the cabin and we definitely made a good choice! We ordered a thick crust pepperoni pizza which was delicious! Thick crust, but not dense, it was airy and fluffy and yummy!!! Also ordered zucchini fries and a chicken strip kids meal. The staff were indifferent . Just neither rude or friendly; but took my order and got it out in a timely manner.

Omg you gotta have the meat livers
Alex G.

Fuck anywhere else this is the spot hands down !!!! Nowhere in town has this flavor, don't miss out ! Will definitely be coming back soon

Extra large pizza to go!

Do they offer take out/phone orders for pick up?

Yes. And they deliver if you call.

Do they deliver?

Yes, they deliver thru a 3rd party service. Bigbeartakeout.com

Dogs allowed on patio?

There really wasn't much of a patio... unless there is something in the rear that I overlooked. I'm going with a no based on what I saw... but I guess not solid confirmation.

Starting with the negative as to why it's not a 5 star review:…read more The decor on the inside and the theme is very very busy. It kinda seems like an entire hobby lobby was purchased and put into the restaurant. 3/5 design The salad was not anything special. It was good lettuce but just that, some croutons, and dressing of choice. 3/5 salad When we got there, no one came to greet us and we were waiting in the main entrance area for about a good 10 Minutes while I saw what looked like all the staff members on the left side of the restaurant hanging out and joking around. Once I went over to say that I was there, the server was attentive and polite. 3/5 service I felt the price was too high. For 2 meals and water we ended up paying around $50. I would have been more pleased with around 35-40. 3/5 price The good: The portions are really great. I love to have big portions and this place did not disappoint. The food was better tasting than expected: I was nervous with such a giant place and only 2 other parties were there. However, I really enjoyed my chicken Parmesan and my wife's nachos were good with a good amount of cheese. I would come back but not every time I visit big bear on vacation. Maybe like every 3rd visit.

We had read all the the reviews that said service was quite slow, so we were prepared for that…read more Turns out that was only part of the problem. Service started with 2 glasses of tepid water. Not even cool water, and not an ice cube to be found. After finally ordering and waiting quite awhile we were told the dish we ordered was "not available" today. Ok. Then the table next to us was told - no pizza or garlic breads tonight. A third table was told they weren't carrying one of the deserts they ordered. Mind boggling on a Saturday night. We replaced my husband's dish with a chef salad. It came out looking like they had dropped the plate. (I'm sure they didn't, but it was a mess.) As he started to mix the salad, he discovered it was sitting in a puddle of water. Literally, standing water. We almost walked out at that point. My soup was delicious, and the Asian sampler was pretty good so we stayed and ate those. The final straw was a 4% charge to use a credit card!!!!! Yes, they soften the blow by offering a 10% discount for cash, but if you don't know that going in! Anyway, we won't be back and cannot in good conscience recommend the restaurant.

Patty greeted us when we came in the door and said we could sit wherever we wanted. She was lovely, very attentive and helpful. Her sister owns the place. She even gave us scads of recommendations for other local places to try and things to do. My husband ordered the chicken parmesan with a side house salad while I got the scallop fettuccine dish and splurged the $3 extra to get their Caesar salad (totally worth it, made in house). Everything is made to order and each dinner came with a board of homemade bread and house made butter for the table. Folks. That bread. Was So Good. Soft and tasty and the parmesan, garlic, parsley butter melted right on it. There was something that didn't hit my palate right on my dish, so Patty offered to get me something else. I decided against that (because the scallops themselves were stellar) but I agreed to some extra Alfredo sauce to mellow out the flavors in the pasta, which worked great! When she learned it was our anniversary, Patty gave us a slice of cheesecake on the house the likes of which I have never tasted before. I don't order cheesecake often, but this was beautifully creamy and sweet. If you want to support local businesses, I highly recommend Jakobe's. They're good people who cook great food and care about their community. SUPPORT LOCAL! DON'T LET THE CHAINS WIN!

We were walking around the village and decided to stop in here for dinner. The restaurant was…read morepretty crowded, which is a great thing. It was a rather chilly evening so we requested to sit indoors. This restaurant looks extremely upscale, but the servers and the employees are all down to earth very gracious and willing to help. We were promptly seated and asked for a drink order. When our server returned with the drinks, he asked if we had any questions about the menu. We didn't and placed our orders. My wife ordered the Oakside burger and sweet potato fries, and I ordered the French dip along with sweet potato fries. The wife thoroughly enjoyed her burger. It was cooked to perfection. The bun was fresh and the condiments crisp. She also really liked her sweet potato fries. They were hot and freshly prepared. I ordered the beef dip that was served on a unique roll that was outstanding. It really set off the whole sandwich. The Ajou was great, and the fresh horseradish was on point. The entire sandwich tasted amazing. Also, I enjoyed the sweet potato fries. This was a very nice dining experience. We will definitely be going back again when we're hungry for something more than just sandwiches. Their menu looked outstanding with some great looking steaks and seafood. This is a great little location. Highly recommended if you're in the area.

Here is my story On one hand, my journey to big Bear Valley was defeated because snow was scarce. And, I had to learn how to find the bald eagles. That is my preference now on to oak side I'm guessing Oakside as the place to go locals and visitors alike. Street level is patio dining upstairs second level is covered and rather dark. Food menu is what anyone can expect from a local pub restaurant diner Same thing can be said about their alcoholic beverages or their non-alcoholic alcoholic beverages You do need to check in with the gal downstairs if you want to sit on the street level patio dining. Otherwise walk up the stairs and sit at the bar. Food was decent. Service was excellent. If I'm ever in the area again.(I'm sure I will be) I definitely stop in again

When in a sleepy mountain town, you never expect to find a fabulous place like this. Quality, well prepared and properly presented with reasonably priced menu. I have eaten some of the best family run small Italian places throughout Orange county and this one rivals all of those. It is absolutely a go-to destination for a proper meal made with love. All with fresh ingredients and presented properly, generous portions served by a small family oriented staff the owner Allison is charming smart and knows true value of quality food and ingredients. After some fabulous conversation we came to understand that she has a great knowledge of food and preparation don't ask her to speak Italian but she will talk to you in French if you like! Do not miss chance to be part of something that is bigger than being on the mountain. Cheers to the Sweet Basil bistro family.
