I'm from Ventura, so I've tried quite a few pizza places around here, and this place is definitely one of my favorites. The food was excellent, the service was great, and the ambiance was welcoming and comfortable. The pizza was fresh, flavorful, and had great quality from the crust to the toppings. Honestly, I think it's better than Domino's, Pizza Hut, and Little Caesars. You can really taste the difference compared to the big chain pizza places. Overall, this was easily a 5-star experience. Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone in Ventura looking for really good pizza. I'll definitely be coming back! read more

Be careful when using your credit card online! I recently placed an online order where I was asked to provide all of my credit card information, along with my email address. The very next day, I received a text from my bank alerting me that someone was attempting to use my card to purchase Universal Studios tickets under my name. Shortly afterward, I also received an email at the same address I had provided when placing the order, regarding the ticket purchase--which I absolutely did not make. I obviously cannot say that this was related to my order or to the place where I used my card, but the timing is certainly a suspicious coincidence. Just a heads-up to be extra cautious about where you enter your credit card information online. Stay alert and keep an eye on your accounts! BTW, the pizza was not the greatest either. read more

Great pizza, delicious wings and absolutely love the potato wedges! They have a cool robot named lil cheese that delivers your food to the table. read more

This location is horrible! The food is made without any type of care for the consumer. I ordered a chipotle calzone and when I got it, I was not able to eat it because it was so flimsy and wet. I wasn't able to pick it up and take a bite when I picked it up. I noticed the ingredients falling out and I noticed big heavy chunks of garlic and the smell was unpleasant.! I went inside to show the staff what they served me and they got defensive and did not care for my feelings or situation at all Clarissa claimed to be in charge had this thuggish behavior she let her emotions get the best of her, and the customer service was not professional at all. I tried to reach out to the main people in charge, but I have had negative results. I guess pizza man dans do not care for the customers.! Now I understand why the place was lonely, dirty, and dark read more

I was hyped up for the wings, I've tried the location in ox and it was super good but the wings from here were kinda plain. When I received my poppers it was missing one jalapeño and instead of having them remaking like they said they just added one. I wasn't too upset about that but at the end when I finished my beer It looked as tho the glass wasn't cleaned properly. There was crumbs inside the glass which is gross. Can't recommend this location over Oxnard. read more

I was in the mood for a burger so I decided to try the Pizza Burger that was new on the menu. A few of my friends have been raving about it. Talk about different and really tasty. The pizza crust really makes a difference instead of a hamburger bun. All in all I'll definitely be coming back from time to time to get this burger while it's still only $5 dollars. Great service and the ambiance is pretty chill and laid back. read more

The pizza is decent; however, don't expect to eat in peace. Be prepared for homeless individuals using this place as their hangout. You may find one charging their phone right behind you as you sit in a booth, another half passed out in front of a pitcher of beer, or someone helping themselves to free soda. Before you even walk in, you might notice someone camped out in the far corner out front with a bike or two. read more

I'll start with the positives. Friendly staff, they have a robot that brings your food sometimes, the prices are reasonable. With all due respect Mr. Dan please get fresher ingredients for the salad bar and the aesthetic should be more bright & fun. It's dark and run down inside. read more

1 Star (Only because zero isn't an option) "Pizza Man Don't."" We've been loyal to Pizza Man Dan's for years. YEARS. We've supported you through COVID, ordered religiously from our beachside motorhome, invited you into our home (like family!), and proudly repped you to out-of-towners like some kind of marinara cult. But now? I wouldn't feed this to my enemies, let alone my dogs--who, by the way, didn't even come near the table. That's right. The dogs. Didn't. Beg. Let me walk you through our culinary trauma: * Chicken wings: Their website boasts "bodacious" and "crispy." Lies. These arrived as flaccid, steamed pouches of despair. More middle school cafeteria mystery meat than anything remotely bodacious. The skin was slack. The fat was soggy. Each bite was like gnawing on a microwaved regret. * The pizza: I can't legally call it pizza. Raw dough. Undercooked sauce. Cheese that looked like it had a fear of commitment. We threw it away. And we're not "throw-away-pizza" people. We're the kind of people who reheat crusts the next morning. This was an exorcism. We attempted to call--because we genuinely hoped it was a bad batch. Maybe someone sneezed on the oven and shorted the circuit. Maybe the chef had a medical emergency and cooked with their feet. We would've forgiven! But nope: nobody answers. Just hold music and the faint sound of corporate indifference. Pizza Man Dan, we wanted to love you forever. We rooted for you. We evangelized for you. But you ghosted us with a grease bomb. Final thoughts: * If your wings were any soggier, they'd qualify as a wet towel. * The dough was so raw, I half expected it to rise and slap me. * Your phone lines are less responsive than my last situationship. * This wasn't a meal. It was a betrayal wrapped in cardboard. We deserve better. Ventura deserves better. Do the right thing. Reach out. Redeem yourself. Because if this is your new normal, you're one limp pepperoni away from Yelp infamy. read more

These appear to be home-made pizzas. Dough is amazing. Wonderful toppings to pick from. I am a whole-food plant based eater, and I was able to select what I needed. read more

Been going to pizza man dan's for many years and getting a LARGE SALAD i never had Claudia one of the workers at pizza man dans tell me i can only have 1 metal fork, but there's ways to talk to your costumer's who keep ur business running, there's no need to be rude saying the plastic utensils are by the soda machine but with a nasty tone why would i only get 1 metal fork when there's many of us and the salad was a LARGEEEE!! But completely and utterly disrespectful of claudia in her part she could've been more patient. And the restroom code don't even get me started they rolled their eyes when i asked for a god damn code like why add a code if your gonna get bothered to do ur job ???? and the salad looks old i didn't even finish it, and the pizza felt raw inside please don't come here! read more

Very poor quality pizza. They can't even get a basic cheese pizza right. Hardly any cheese or sauce. It was like a cardboard! They don't sell pitchers either but instead charge $3.99 a cup. Won't be coming here anymore:( read more

This has happened time and time again. I order a veggie calzone which by the way cost $2 more than a meat calzone and yet again got a calzone with a few tomatoes, a mushroom and a few olives and mostly cheese and bread. I have specifically asked on multiple occasions to please note I want actual veggies and not just cheese and bread and yet I almost always get little to no veggies. read more

I ordered from the Pizza Man Dan's River park Collection facility. I ordered the all meat pizza with extra sauce. I asked twice for them to ensure they had it on the order. When i got home the Pizza had no sauce. Do not order from this establishment. read more

We were looking for something quick to eat and the kids were craving pizza. We were headed to the brewery across the street when we saw a big sign for Pizza Man Dan's that read $9.99 take out special! Sold! It was like it was meant to be. We walked in and ordered the take out special, which is a large cheese pizza to go. For $2.50 more we were able to add pepperoni to our pizza. You can choose thin crust or pan, we chose pan. 15 minutes later it was hot and ready! We took our pizza across the street and enjoyed a beer from the brewery with our dinner. This pizza easily fed our family of 5 and it was delicious! You can also choose to eat there. They have a large dining room with lots of seating, some arcade games and a salad bar. You really can't beat the take out special though! read more

Love the food. Would NOT recommend ordering by phone. 2 days in a row I ordered 5layer cake in total 6 cakes. On both occasions I received 6 pan cookies instead. I'll only order in store from now on. Very let down. Sorry only found 1 receipt. Nun the less you'll see the 3 five layer cakes. And to confirm this you can ask driver. read more

Used to come here regularly but Ive stopped lately because the kids workin there will hit the tip button for you really fast after a transaction and try to hide it. Ive tipped every time I eat here and seeing the staff pull that makes me not want to spend any money here now. Please don't disrespect the people coming in to buy food by stealing from them in front of their face too. I do inspections for a living, people notice these things. Its a shame because the hot wings are pretty good. read more

I wrote a review several years ago with sour grapes over the restaurant not carrying the salad dressing I liked (oy vey). So I want to correct my error in ways & stare that while I still miss my salad dressing, the Pizza, wings, & Potato wedges make up for the absence. The. habanero wings are sooo good and with a side of the piping hot potato wedges with your choice of sauce, epic! I normally order a Pepperoni pizza with red onion & green peppers with extra sauce, so yummy! The delivery drivers are super kind too and when I dine in the staff are always pleasant. Hmmm, I might be ordering delivery today after all. . read more

PizzaMan Dan's is Awesome! The pizza is great, the service has always been helpful and friendly. If you do the 999 deal its one of the best deals in food and a great way to feed your kids without breaking the bank. read more

One of my favorites pizza joints. Every time I order a pizza from PMD, it's always fresh and delicious. I usually opt for pick up considering I generally eat it for lunch while at work. My coworkers and I love splitting a large pizza. We usually get a side of mango habanero to dip it in. If you like spice, I highly recommend. The salad bar is a must try. My parents are obsessed with their wings. The sandwiches are always delicious. I honestly have nothing bad to say. The inside of this location is very old school pizza parlor which I love. Dan is a great guy, always friendly and welcoming every time I run into him. I've spoken to the employees about him and they all love him as well. Speaks volumes in my opinion. read more

As always will we roll into Ventura Ranch RV Park once we're done setting up we always call pizza man Dan. They have excellent pizza. We got two types of wings, the mango habanero, and the barbecue. The wings are so crispy. They're not soggy just the right amount of sauce, and they deliver without a hassle when you get the food it's always pipe and hot. We also got the appetizer sampler the mozzarella sticks were so gooey and hot. The poppers were yummy and the chicken tender was delicious. was good. read more

Mediocre pizza at best. The best things this place had going for it was the pizza car parked out front, the carry out box, and this robot server perusing around the dining area. But like I said, the pizza is not great and is a slightly elevated version of Little Caesar's. It probably doesn't help that I'm from Chicago. read more

I'm from back East, so I know pizza. This isn't as good as the East, but as for LA pizza it's not bad. Now I should say when it comes to pizza I'm a traditionalist. Typically, a good mozzarella, pepperoni, sausage, and possibly mushrooms. I know in LA most people like to have either a salad or a fruit bowl on their pie so It's not what most in LA would enjoy. I think they change ownership a couple years back and with that the sauce changed and not for the better. I will continue getting their pizza. We've also tried several of their other dishes. Chicken dinner, shrimp n chips and salads. All of which were good. Lastly, their cheese cake is great. Recommend read more

Picked up my pizza after calling it in and was told to wait because it was burnt, waited almost 20 minutes more than I should have because they had to bake another one which I understand but was expecting to get in and out fast since I pre ordered. When I got home the other food I ordered was longer hot and even the new pizza did not seem as fresh unfortunately. read more

I live in the San Fernando Valley, and every time I take a road trip to Carpinteria.

The Carp, and last night Ventura, that had a bar!! Also a girl with purple hair there helped me out, and feel bad I can't remember her name, but she was absolutely WONDERFUL!!!!
