Let me tell you -- Pier Pizza is absolutely worth the trip. Yes, parking near the pier can be a bit of a headache, but once you find your spot and make the walk over, you'll be glad you did. Trust me on this one. The pizza itself is where this place really shines. Tons of flavor, not greasy at all, and it holds its shape with very little bend -- they call it New York style, and while the flat crust definitely nods in that direction, I'll be honest: it doesn't quite have that classic New York water taste you'd expect. But here's the thing -- it doesn't need to. The pizza stands completely on its own merits and is genuinely delicious. What I also loved is the variety. They have plenty of options ready to go, plus you can order other items off the menu beyond just pizza. They've even got soda in cans or bottles rather than fountain drinks, which honestly felt a little more old school in the best way. Speaking of old school -- the vibe inside is pure beach city charm. Divey, casual, and full of character, but don't let that fool you. The place is clean and well-organized, and the crew is constantly out there wiping down tables and keeping things fresh for every customer. You can tell they take pride in what they do. Overall, a really great experience from start to finish. If you're in Oceanside, do yourself a favor and make the walk to Pier Pizza. You won't regret it. Enjoy! read more

As Wyndham timeshare owners, Oceanside became a regular destination for us, and when ZigZag Pizzeria opened, it was honestly a godsend for a family with three hungry kids! Over the years, we enjoyed really good pizza, plenty of options to keep everyone happy, and beautiful, fresh salads. The restaurant itself was a great size with plenty of seating, but its location also made it incredibly convenient to grab a pizza and take it back up to our room--or, even better, take it along for a walk by the beach. There's something to be said for a casual pizza place that becomes part of your family's vacation memories, and ZigZag was definitely that for us. Since officially moving to Oceanside a year and a half ago, we actually haven't been back, so I can't fairly speak to how the restaurant is currently being run or whether anything has changed. What I can say is that based on our many years of past experiences, ZigZag was consistently a great, convenient family option and one that we were always happy to have right there by the beach. Lots of good memories here, and based on those experiences, I can certainly recommend giving it a try.

We were looking for a light lunch and a cold drink and decided to give ZigZag Pizza a try. I was hoping to grab pizza by the slice, but unfortunately they don't offer individual slices. A whole pizza was more than we wanted at the time, so we each decided to order a salad instead. They had plenty of salad options to choose from as well as a great selection of cold beverages. I had the Caesar salad, which was fresh and hit the spot after spending time at the beach. The pizza choices looked delicious, so I would definitely like to come back when we're ready for a full pizza. The atmosphere is casual and fun, and the location makes it an easy stop while spending the day around the Oceanside Pier. If you're looking for pizza, salads and cold drinks near the beach, ZigZag Pizza is definitely worth checking out.

glad I gave ODIE's PIZZA a second try. much better experience this time…read more ordered a 16" New York-style, BENNY and THE JETS: aged mozzarella, soppressata, hot honey, sea salt, whipped burrata, and fresh basil and subbed vodka sauce (instead of EVOO) for the base. the whipped burrata (stracciatella) comes separately so you can top your pizza last minute. burrata's wet and if added early, you'll wind up with extra soggy slices. still not a fan of floppy (giant Neopolitan-style) pizza but that's personal preference and shouldn't be the only standard for the entire experience. also, not wild about their AI-assisted phone ordering system. gets seriously janky when you want to change sauces. the offset is without exception, every live person I dealt with was amazing. even though the dough's cold fermented for a couple of days, would say it's a stretch to call it sourdough if there's dry yeast and not sourdough starter for the rise (which I'm guessing is the case). yeah, more nitpicks. anyway, enjoyed the pizza enough to bump the rating from three to five stars.

I've been to Dominic's Italian Restaurant in Oceanside a few times now, and it's always been a…read moresolid experience. The biggest highlight is the freshness of the food. You can tell everything is made with quality ingredients. We ordered the calamari, and it was fantastic, especially with the dipping sauce. The homemade breadsticks were fresh, although I definitely recommend getting a side of marinara since they're a little plain on their own. We also ordered the meat ravioli and pasta with meatballs to go, and both were delicious. For pizza, we had the 12-inch Meat Lover's. The toppings and ingredients were fresh, but the crust wasn't quite what I expected. I wish I had taken a picture of the underside because it lacked that crispy, well-baked texture I usually look for. That said, it was still a good pizza and was the perfect size to share with my 12-year-old son. The restaurant itself was very clean, both inside and on the patio. We chose to eat outside since it was a hot day, and the harbor views gave the place a relaxing, old-school 90s coastal vibe. Parking around the harbor can be a challenge, and the shared public restrooms definitely show their age. Service was just okay during this visit. Nothing bad, but nothing that really stood out either. The owner has always been incredibly friendly, though. On a previous visit, he even surprised my kids with free desserts, which was a really nice touch. Like many places around the harbor, prices seem a bit higher because of the tourist location. Even so, the quality of the food keeps bringing us back. This was my third or fourth visit, and while there isn't one thing that absolutely blows me away, it's consistently good Italian food in Oceanside. I'd definitely recommend giving Dominic's a try if you're looking for fresh food in a great harbor setting. 4.5/5
