Pepperoni pizza
Zuri M.

I order a pepperoni pizza for pickup. I ordered online and loved how there are deals and coupons online. $20 for a large one topping pizza seemed reasonable. When I went to pickup the pizza, the staff were helpful and quick. The pizza was good, with average seeming quality of ingredients.

Small pizza. Half BBQ Chicken and half supreme.

A day out in Carpentaria means you gotta get a pizza by the beach, right? For us, we go out to fill our bellies with food before sipping our adult beverages later in the day. We felt welcome in Pizza Man Dan's as it looked inviting. It was kind of like a Shakey's but we wanted to give it a shot since Rusty's looked packed. Clean restaurant and great customer service, but that didn't help the food. Although it looked great online, we were pretty disappointed. I felt that the pizza wasn't fantastic but it wasn't terrible it was just okay. We got a half and half pizza for the two of us. Although the barbecue chicken pizza with jalapeños was pretty good, the supreme pizza was just alright. Nothing too crazy but it was packed with toppings which is why we didn't feel it was bad. The potato wedges were chunky and soft. It was underwhelming not to chomp into a crispy exterior with a fluffy inside. These had a "from freezer, to microwave" consistency. Super oily too and for the price, the amount you get was not worth it. We did only spend a couple of minutes deciding where to eat, but if we were to go back, we'd probably choose another pizza spot entirely. Perhaps others have a strong connection to the food here but for us, Pizza Dan was not the Pizza man.

Must be hard to compete for pizza place market share in a tiny town like Carpinteria but it's clear Dan's strategy is service. Pizza, salad and soda all great but Friday night's late Fall service deserves honorable mention and recognition. Firstly, my order was taken with accuracy and attention. Was already willing to throw a couple bucks tip but no digital option for that. Young man at the counter let me know he greatly appreciated the sentiment none the less. Impressive. After experiencing an epic journey across their vast landscape of salad bar spread, I was posted up at one of their 2 touch screen soda taps when I heard my name called letting me know my pizza was ready. I was still at the soda tap vacillating between another 6 ounces of Vanilla Cream or maybe Orange when the same young man working the register came all the way over to make sure I had heard my pizza was ready. That's when I started to realize I definitely made the right choice coming to Pizza Man Dan's tonight. As with any great story we experienced a great ending after my niece's greasy fingers and waxed cup turned into ice on the floor. When alerted, the same guy from behind the counter lept into action addressing the cleanliness and safety issues we had created and was very gracious about the whole thing. Top notch Dan! Well done cultivating a service culture that promotes in house family dining. I'll remember to bring cash for the jar next time

Fiesta Pizza

One of the best deals out there. Did you see how many toppings they gave us??? I got my moneys worth (important in this economy), it was delicious, and the gentlemen working were fast and kind. Can't wait to come back!

Pizza came in these cute boxes.

We ordered delivery from Pizza Man Dans to our hotel in Carpenteria. We ordered the Indy Margarita, med BBQ chicken pizza, chicken wings with Buffalo and ranch and a Cobb Salad. Food was very good and arrived sooner than expected. Only complaints are they did not bring paper plates, napkins or utensils. To be fair we forgot to request these items, but assumed they'd be included as they were delivering to a hotel. Also, the salad was very small- really only big enough for one person- should be called an Indy Salad.

After a night of bar hopping. Nothing beats a classic pepperoni pizza. We ordered delivery and it came in about 20 minutes for a saturday night. I love the thin crust on this pizza. The hot and steamy cheese pulls was definitely satisfying everyone's craving! I definitely recommend when you're staying in Carpinteria!

Fantastic all around! The patio is so cute and covered in plants. You feel like you're tucked away…read morein a secret garden with the whimsical mismatched tables and seats. Our server was very nice and when I ordered a gluten free pasta she brought out gluten free bread for the table without even asking, such a nice touch that I rarely see at restaurants. They were a bit busy the night we visited so the food took a while to come out, but it was worth the wait! I got the gluten free primavera Rosa with added chicken (and it only cost me $3 extra which so affordable!) and my date got the chicken piccata. We were both raving about it as we scarfed it down! This place really feels like they've invited you into their home for a delicious home cooked meal. I think it is also family owned and operated which I always so nice to see. Please visit Thario's kitchen, you won't be disappointed.

We were greeted by Pierre, our server, and he's probably the best server we've had in a long time! He's young but has great people attitude! Now onto to the food... It was spectacular! We had different dishes and all were equally delicious- lasagna, puttanesca and chicken piccata! I am a California native and although I was raised in LA, I spent my summers in this area but haven't had a chance to discover this hidden gem. It is definitely a must try and you hopefully the ocean breeze, and Thario's Kitchen will remind you why life is good.
