Blue cheese walnut salad
Vanessa E.

This place was surprisingly delicious. It's easy to get lost in all the pizza spots in the area. My husband really enjoyed the meat lasagna. The blue cheese walnut salad is great. We went 2x in a week. The service is great, friendly staff. Pub like atmosphere, playoff hockey on tv!

Spaghetti and Meatballs with meat sauce

Food was great! Service was excellent! Just need to pack the to-go's more securely. Put a piece of cardboard inside the plastic bag to provide better support. The foil trays were hot and flimsy so my meat sauce spilled inside the bag. The tiramisu melted inside the hot bag too. It should have been packed separately and away from the hot food. Food was delicious, just need to be mindful with the to-go's!

Andreann took our to-go order, and while we waited, we sat at a nearby table. She came over and told us the tables were for dine-in customers only and that we needed to wait by the large fan instead. I would completely understand if the restaurant had been busy, there was a waitlist, or customers were waiting for tables but none of that was the case. There were plenty of open tables, and the way she spoke to us came across as unnecessarily rude. We ended up sitting on a bench outside while we waited. At some point our order was ready, but we have no idea how long it had been sitting there because no one called our name or even stepped outside to let us know. Overall, the whole interaction left a bad impression. We were paying customers too, even if our order was to-go, and a little basic courtesy would have gone a long way. Really disappointing customer service.

Meat lovers pizza
Joaquin M.

Came in on Easter Sunday at 1:45PM. It was packed. However, we weee seated immediately. Staff was friendly and answered our questions. Ambiance is casual with the beach vibe throughout. Food was delicious. We got the medium meat lovers and an order of mozzarella sticks. Fire. Definitely a come back.

Happy Hour Slice and a beer
Jason S.

Came here for the lunch special! What a deal! Pepperoni slice and a beer for under $12!! WOW! The slice was huge!

Raw pizza
Jason F.

Walked in to order a pizza to go. Ordered a med combo, wait was 15 ro 20 min. All good. Walked pizza back to the hotel, fail. It wasn't cooked, it was still raw in the center. See photo and no that's not cheese. Also, while waiting I noticed that the restaraunt in general needs cleaning and maintenance. At the host stand you can clearly see dirt buil-up and an iced up machine. Sloppy wires on the ceiling covered in grime. More or less stuck with this pizza as it would make the experience worse to have to walk back and wait another 20 minutes then walk back to the hotel. On the positive side, nice person who took the order. That is all. Get your stuff together Pizmo!

Bbq Chicken Pizza
Cindy P.

Pretty crowded on a Friday night for a casual Italian eatery in Pismo Beach. That's always a good sign to me. But, I come to find out that the poor servers were running around nonstop because they were short handed. So although the wait to sit and be served was a little long, I completely understand given their circumstance. Food was delicious and big portions. The BBQ chicken pizza was loaded with the yummiest toppings. Highly recommend for the awesome savor & sweet flavors! Even the simple basket of fries we ordered as a side was crispy and tasty. Next time you find yourself in the Pismo area, grab a PIZmo bite! So close to the pier and downtown area.

Mozzarella Sticks

We stumbled in here and are so glad we tried it! The service was great and very fast and the food was good and reasonably priced. The mozzarella sticks were our favorite thing we got! We will be back on our next trip. Just beware gratuity is already added to parties of 5 or more.

Buffalo Wings
Nalleli P.

Favorite pizza spot in Pismo. There's usually alot of people but it was a Monday ( Presidents' Day). Service was quick and attentive. Good ambiance of music playing. The pizza was crunchy 5/5. The wings are my favorite!

Kaliza D.

Came in during happy hour, pizza slices came out fresh and where a great size. Service was great as well

Chicken Alfredo
CocoWill T.

Food is always spot on! So glad we found this place. We have visited 3 times in a week. Yes, it was that good. Especially after a day of fishing off the pier. The service is always exceptionally great, the staff is very welcoming and with a smile on their faces. The place is a great place to have dinner with your family, catch a game on many of the screens they have playing.

We have been coming here for years and never had a bad pizza until today. We definitely have to find a new pizza restaurant. The pizza was super thin and hard. Won't be coming back.

Chicken wings
Fely L.

Been walking by this place every time we are in Pismo and finally gave it a try. We order fried wings with buffalo sauce on the side. The wings were great! Nice crunch factor and moist inside. Buffalo sauce was homemade not too hot, just to my liking. The pizza I loved just as much. We got a combo and right amount of meat and veggies. The crust is made daily, with a nice crispy crunch and not doughy and saucy. Shout out to Kelli our server. Love her service, personality and humor. Oh and I even had a cider which was good. I'm not a drinker at all.

Dog friendly inside?

I honestly do not believe so the tables and all the people inside were pretty crammed together, but I would call and ask

Do they have a gluten free pizza option?

Yes

We were informed that there was an approximated 35 minute wait. Two other groups arrived after my husband and I and had their names added to the list. A group of four and a group of two. Approximately 10 minutes later the hostess seated the group of four before us even though the group informed them that we were there first. The hostess looked directly at us then informed the group to not worry about it and that she was seating them. Approximately five minutes later the hostess return to seat the group of two. They also informed the hostess that we were there first. The hostess told them not to worry about it and that if we had an issue with seating, that we needed to speak to her about it. The woman with that group then stated that the hostess was incredibly rude. After the second group was seated, I questioned the hostess as to why we had yet to be called. She informed me that she had called my cell phone and the call wouldn't go through and said she got a message that the call was forbidden. I then asked her why and she said she didn't know and proceeded to call my number in front of me to show that the call wouldn't go through. So she either wasn't dialing a 1 before the area code or their landline isn't set up for long distance. I asked her why we weren't informed of this and it was clearly pointed out to her by the other two groups that we had been waiting before them. She just glared at me and said that she had a table for us now. No apology, nothing! She seemed more concerned with obliging the group of four young men and other regulars that she clearly knew.

We were placed on the back patio, which was beautiful, covered, heated, and thoughtfully decorated, making it a very comfortable and inviting space. We ordered the Cajun Seafood Boil, and it did not disappoint. It came with a generous amount of crab, shrimp, lobster, clams, and mussels. The seasoning was bold and flavorful without being overwhelming. The corn, potatoes, and sausage were perfectly portioned, complementing the seafood instead of taking the focus away from it. The rich, buttery garlic sauce tied everything together and was absolutely delicious. We also ordered the half-shell oysters, which were the perfect medium size. They were meaty and had the rich, briny flavor I enjoy. Our server, Angel, was outstanding. Our food came out quickly, she checked on us regularly, and she was attentive to everything we needed without any delay. Overall, we had a fantastic dining experience from start to finish. Great food, excellent service, and a wonderful atmosphere made this an easy place to recommend for the whole family.

Since the weather was gorgeous and we had our dog with us, we chose to sit outside. Street parking can be a bit tight due to beachgoers and nearby shops. Their menu covers breakfast, burgers, tacos, fish & chips, salads, soups, and hot or cold sandwiches, plus beer and cocktails. We ordered the 'Cuban Sandwich' (hot pulled pork, ham, provolone, mustard, mayo, and pickles on a perfectly toasted, soft French roll) and the 'Turkey Sandwich' (cold). Both came with curly fries and were fresh and yummy. Personally, I prefer chips over fries with a cold sandwich, but the food was still excellent. Customer service was top-notch. Shout out to Gabriel for being welcoming and friendly. We had a great lunch and will definitely be back to try more.

Just a short walk from the Pismo Beach Pier. The staff was great, had Misa as our waitress. I think she could tell we weren't locals so she made some recommendations which were great, offered up some directions to other near by destinations and just had all around great customer service. The food tasted great, bbq sauce for our fries and onion rings was recommended and I believe she said it was made in house, a spot on recommendation. If we're ever in the area we'll for sure be swinging by for lunch again.

Ambience was nice, I enjoyed the rodeo events on the tv, I'm a barrel racer and rodeo attendee as well so that was fun to see. Waitress was very nice, I don't remember her name but she had cool tattoos and orange hair, she was bringing us refills without us having to ask, and the service was extremely quick. We were a party of 6 and our food came out in less than 10 minutes, even though the restaurant was pretty busy. I enjoyed the open windows so fresh air could flow in and out as well. As for food, I ordered the hula chicken sticks and a side of white rice. Omg. Sooooo yummy!!!! both my entree and side were piping hot and perfectly fresh. Chicken was cooked thoroughly and was very tasty alongside the pineapple. White rice was perfectly cooked as well. We will definitely come back here next time we drive up to Pismo! I also very much enjoyed seeing what was gluten free on the menu, and the gluten free substitution was amazing. I'm so glad to see representation and inclusivity like this. My sister also enjoyed the dairy free options. Overall we went home with a peace of mind. None of us got sick!
