    This is a classic cheese Pizza (14")

    This was my first time trying this restaurant and we liked it! Food was ready on time and fresh! The ambiance was cozy and clean. Service was good and friendly!

    Thrilled to have found this pizza place! I LOVE pizza and haven't been able to find a tasty pizza spot near Escondido until I discovered Pizza Union. There's a well known chain pizza shop just a few storefronts down from Pizza Union and I have absolutely no idea why people keep ordering from there when Pizza Union has beyond better quality ingredients and MUCH better pizza. Period. I ordered ahead online so I could just pick up the pizza once I arrived. Everything was hot and ready to go. I believe their special of the 2-topping 18" pizza + garlic knots was a great deal. Looking forward to my next pizza night to try out other toppings and pizza combos from here!

    The crust here is perfection! We ordered the special 2 slices + soda and got to try various toppings. Everything so good! Service was fast and efficient! We ordered a whole pie to go after enjoying our slice there.

    Unfortunate delivery.  This was the side that wasn't blackened.  (Pic is the day after and microwaved)

    We had our first "eh" experience last night. We tried the New Yorker pizza. Unfortunately, the bottom was burned on half of the pizza and made the pizza bitter. I had it delivered through door dash. Trying a piece from the other side today, and other than it being microwaved, it seems to be better. We usually really like the pizza from here. We will try again, but we only give 2 strikes when it comes to food, especially because there are plenty of places to choose from.

    Had a pizza craving recently and tried this place again. Haven't been here for a while. Lunch special is a great value and the pizzas are as delicious as before. I got the Margherita and NY style pizzas (mushrooms, pepperoni and garlic). Service is great as well. I plan to come again soon!

    Delicious NY style pizza! Thin crust with a nice crunch to it. Excellent sauce to cheese ratio. 2 slices and a drink for $6.99!! One of the best slice shops that I have found in North County -

    Deluxe

    I want to start with saying, thank you so so much for feeding my toddler despite the wait. After 10 minutes of hearing our toddler yell for "PIZZA" they decided to give her some cheese pizza. Everyone in the shop including us truly appreciated that. Anyone who has a toddler, knows how bad that could have turned lol. Let's get to the good. Ordered two pizzas, which was way too much. They are 18" inch thin crust pies. The deluxe was very good, but the white four cheese was a little bland. Both had very good crust and were still tasty the next day when warmed in the toaster oven. She shop only offers two tables, so if you plan to try Pizza Union, it may be better to take it home.

The seafood was especially fresh and perfectly cooked -- from the tender shrimp and lobster to the flavorful clams and pasta dishes. The stuffed zucchini blossoms were delicate and delicious, and the sauces were rich, balanced, and clearly made with care. The lobster bisque, however, was a little salty for my taste. The atmosphere felt warm, elegant, and welcoming, making it perfect for a relaxing dinner or special occasion. Service was attentive without being overwhelming, and every plate looked like it came straight out of a gourmet magazine. Highly recommend trying the seafood specials and homemade pasta. You can really taste the quality and passion in every bite. The restaurant is often filled up fast for dinner, it is best to reserve in advance.

Mangia e Bevi's pizze scored a hit with all 4 of us, including my celiac DIL who must eat gluten free. My pistachio pesto pizza with mortadella and arugula was the real deal. It transported me back to Naples with the first bite. We appreciate the special measures they take for those with celiac by cleaning the pizza oven thoroughly to remove any traces of gluten before baking the GF pizza. The GF pasta is cooked in separate water from the regular in order to prevent cross contamination. I sampled her GF Margherita pizza, and found it delicious. A crispy exterior on the crust cradling a soft, pillowy interior contrasted beautifully with the fresh tomato sauce and cheese on the pie. One person went rogue by ordering a pasta with bolognese. Yummy. Mangia e Bevi's is an especially rich, meaty version of the sauce. Quite delicious.

It comes with four meatballs and two pieces of toast that are perfect for dipping into the marinara sauce. * Ragu Napoletano: We chose the rigatoni pasta with this dish.

Honestly, it felt like our order was forgotten. On top of that, the waiter never once checked on our table throughout the night. The only positives was the live singer and the hostess, who were both great. We are not sure if the discrimination left a bad taste in our mouth and made the food taste bland.
