Very expensive, bad quality service. Don't mind to pay high price for good food but I spect a smile while Poole take my order. I was trying to get more salad after I spend almost $100 dollars at this please and the person in charge in a very disgusting way told me I can't. Later she told me that if I would spend 3 more dollars I can have all I can eat salada. To late. Horrible experience at this place. Don't come here period. read more

Great environment, great music, close to the government center I love coming here for lunch since is close by my job. Salad bar is the beach with ranch. read more

I was enjoying a casual drive on Victoria Ave., a gentle 60 mph breeze in my face, the sunroof open, the winter sun almost completely blinding my vision, and what do I see? Why...it's a GIANT slice of pizza! Wasting no time, I pulled into the parking lot, enter the restaurant, and ordered a medium pizza of jalapeno & pepperoni, plus an ice cold pitcher of Bud Light, for dietary reasons. The pizza was good, spicy as hell, and the beer did absolutely nothing to cool it down. The pizza cost $15, the beer $11, not a great bargain, but it hit the spot for a guy trying to gain weight. read more

I called Rusty's Pizza (which is now officially known as PizzaMan Dan's) to order catering to feed about 500 middle and high school students for a science-related event hosted by UCSB and Oxnard College. Dan, the owner of Rusty's Pizza in Ventura, was great to work with in making more than enough pizzas to feed a third world country along with bringing all kinds of soda cans, big bowls of salad, and various types of dressings. Since we had a large quantity of an order, he also made a great deal for the event and even brought his own serving staff. Overall, Rusty's was professional, flexible and catered delicious pizza, beverages and salad. My favorite pizza from Rusty's is the Diablo Fuego :) And I enjoy eating their pizza crust too (which I usually don't eat the crust lol). read more

Pizza Man Dans is delicious! My family and I enjoy their pizza, calzone, wings and of course their deals! Lunch special is fabulous, includes your choice of main dish, salad and a drink for like $10, great deal! Totally recommend to friends and family! read more

I live near the Victoria location ordered a pizza and boneless wings the delivery took 50 mins. The pizza was cold and it was missing a small slice. I only called to try out pizza man Dans because Toppers on mainstreet was closed for maintenance never again will I order from pizza man Dans. Mediocre cold pizza is what you will get. Not worth it go somewhere else especially for delivery orders. Not worth the price I paid and toppers never takes that long not even on a busy weekend night. Pitiful service! read more

Pizza Man Dan's is my go to spot for all occasions. Their carry out special is a bar none and the pizza is tasty! I love both the pan and thin crust options. Also their Famous High Five Chocolate Cake is DELICIOUS!!!! So good we ordered it for our wedding. People still mention it to this day! read more

Been ordering pizza for a long time and this is my favorite in town. Can't beat the cheese pizza carry-out deal, but I gotta say I have a personal weakness for their buffalo wings. Anytime I stop in the staff are always very helpful no matter what they've got going on in the kitchen and deliveries have always been fast and precise. Been getting them here for 10 years going and don't see that changing anytime soon. read more

The pizza is so good. I got cheese and pepperoni, absolutely delicious. My SO got the bbq chicken, he says it was good he enjoyed it and he would get it again. Got mozz sticks, could be because we had a bit to drive back home so they lost a lil warmth but that's alright. Marinara sauce was good. All in all great quality. They have military discount too read more

The reason that we ate here, and i'm ashamed to admit it is they have a monster truck, yea i know. nuts. and one of those inflatable wavy guys too. so from what was initially a "get a load of this place" endeavor turned into hey! thats pretty decent pizza for 5 bucks each! we got the bbq chicken, which is pretty hard to do poorly and like we expected it was from decent to pretty good. There's really nothing terribly exceptional about the place and despite the kitsch i enjoyed the food. read more

Tried this place of couple of times and don't care to ever go back. Pizza is average tasting and overpriced, if you're from out of town and are looking for pizza try Toppers. read more

While I applaud their speedy deliveries... Truly they are the best! However I just paid 6.00 for a sample appetizers... 6.... ONE BITE PIECES... SO A BUCK A BITE. SERIOUSLY? Very disappointed... Won't be ordering that sad bite.... Ever again... Do better if you want repeat business read more

Great pizza! Crunchy crust, sauce is full of flavor, pepperoni is crisped to perfection, melty cheese and the ranch is fantastic. Plus two free ranches per pizza, most places don't offer that. Pizza Man Dans is a must. It is similar to rustys and toppers and has my vote for #1 read more

This place was awful! I ordered my food over the phone. Had my work shirt on, and at first it was cool that they knew exactly who I was and handed me my order and small drink. When It came to pay, I asked the guy if I had paid for a large drink. He nodded yes. Takes my small drink back then gives me a large. Ordered a Philly cheesesteak and it tasted like the meat had freezer burn. My buddy ordered "chicken wings." Paid $8 for them. All they were was chicken nuggets with two dipping sauce. WTF? Never again! read more

Wings smelled like diesel fuel and were soggy. The calzones lacked cheese and we even asked for extra. The dough was decent but they really need to work on their cheese game and meat quality. Tasted like cafeteria processed meat. read more

Hi Dan, Thank you for the response however I don't understand the concept of a $9.99 carryout special has to do with our indoor experience?? I mean, if you trying to compete the likes of Papa John's, Little Caesars, Dominos,....why would you have a sit down facility?? Also I would advise that the customer service experience will outway cost. If you have a family spending a serious chunk of change ($150) for dinner however your going to advise that extra ranch or salad is going to break the bank. Those items are a few dollars if that and you have to sell numerous $9.99 pizzas to make up the cost. I agree that it should have been handled better, as for an upfront explanation and a better approach. read more

We frequent PizzaMan Dan's for lunch during the workweek when we want a tasty meal for a tasty price. If you sign up for coupons, you get special offers on reduced price meals. And! The lunch specials come with a drink and small salad (from the salad bar). Combine that with the coke machine and friendly staff, there's nothing to lose. Love it here read more

Just finished a wonderful meal. Delivery was timely and our order was correct and complete. The salad and pizza was delicious, but the star was the chocolate cake. Thank you for a wonderful meal! read more

During times of quarantine I saw they ad for 9.99 large and decided to pick up a pizza and wing.. pizza $9.99 and $16. For 12 wings let me tell you I'm truly disappointed the pizza and wings were pretty much burnt the wings had very little sauce I would have rather got Little Caesar maybe I'm just comparing to Toppers, that's my go to place. Maybe times are just hard and they are understaffed idk.. I had pizza and wings from their Port Hueneme location and that was pretty good but that was years ago. If I ever decide to go back I might edit my review for the mean time I give it 2 stars. read more

Never been before and I went because the guy at Starbucks recommended this place. They had some great specials and I now realize that the person taking my order was pushing those specials for a reason. But I didn't order a special. I ordered a meat pizza and wings. Almost had a heart attack when I realized the medium pizza was $25. Pizza was good but nothing to write home about. The wings were so hot that you couldn't even touch them for about 8 minutes and then almost choked on them because they were sawdust dry. I mean couldn't swallow and had to spit them out. The people were incredibly nice and the place was clean. I think that if I'm ever in the area again that I would give them another try because of the people. The pizza was good. I will listen next time and get a special. read more

Have enjoyed pizza from Pizza Man Dan in the past. Sadly the last two times have been a big let down. Their quality is suffering and still over priced. 1 month ago I had the pizza with the family, dine in style. Spent over 60 dollars on 1 pizza wings and drinks. Pizza was burnt and they had to make a new one. Had delivery today. Pizza took over 67 minutes from phone call to delivery. Quoted 30 minutes. Worse part was one of the pizza's was burnt all along the edges. I won't be back, just not worth the money to have burnt, cold pizza. read more

So what can I say about Pizza Man Dans? Only good things! I have to say that this place delivers quality great tasting pizza EVERY TIME! I love this place so much. I went with my son, brother, and mom. We ordered a all meat calzone and it was awesome! A huge calzone filled with my favorite toppings and their awesome ranch to dip into. Then the pizza...the pizza!...so so good. I always ask for extra sauce because when I don't, it's kinda dry, but the extra sauce kicks this pizza into another world. Simply the best in Ventura. We also ordered a large salad (which is all you can eat) and the salad bar was so super fresh and filled with tons of options. Only thing we noticed was the cucumber slices were kinda slimey..add all this with their awesome soda machine that gives you endless options, our experience is always great here. Game on tv's, great pizza, family, what more? I come here as often as I can and PMD never lets me down. The service was awesome also, which enhances the whole pizza parlor experience. Thanks again for a great dinner! read more

Pizza was good but saturated with grease so much that I had to let the pizza sit on a paper towel to absorb some of the grease on the bottom of the pie. I ordered a pepperoni with extra cheese. They loaded the pizza with so much pepperoni that it was almost unenjoyable. At times I would bite through 5 pieces of pepperoni stacked on top of each other. While I can appreciate that some people would want it this way, it seems like all that pepperoni saturated the entire pizza with grease which made me nauseous and gave me acid reflux. I do believe the ingredients themselves hold promise but too many toppings can also be an issue of quality control. read more

Updated and rerated: quick delivery perfectly correct, and good quality. My experience a year ago is the fluke and not the rule. Previous:10/16 Went in to this location today at 11am. Clean seats and quick service, but then it goes wrong: the lettuce in the salad bar was old, and come to find out ordering a "ham and pineapple calzone" will result in you receiving a meat calzone. Needless to say, if they can't get the two main dishes they serve correct it's hard for me to justify spending money here. read more

Horrible customer service. You call a number that's listed as a local number but it's really a call center that you have to wait for. When asking about specials they hung up on me because I asked my kids really quick if they wanted bread sticks. When someone asks you about specials you should give them a second to think about what they want. read more

Never got a response from PMDs here or anywhere else. So guess they are okay w everything that happened.

I don't know about y'all, but the pizza isn't the only thing that's good there. They have some of the most outgoing and nicest employees there that I always leave with a satisfied smile. To me, when it comes to going out to eat at a restaurant or even picking something up, workers that really take the time to be patient and kind makes up a lot of the experience as well. The pizzas are good, the wings are fire, and the workers treat you well. read more

Great Pizza! We got sausage, meatball, and garlic with thin crust. It was cooked perfect, I like when my crust has a chew to it. The meatballs tasted like they make them there and chop 'em up to sprinkle generously onto your pizza. I'm a crust eater (unfortunate for my dogs, although i try to share) and was still getting bites of meat while enjoying last bites of each slice. The cheese is good quality and the garlic is roasted which makes it undetectable in texture and leaves only the aroma and flavor. My salad was equally enjoyable! Super fresh greens (romaine and spinach) and fresh wedges of quality tomatoes, sliced cucumber. I could have gone for less bite size cauliflower and broccoli, but only because I prefer them cooked. Homemade thousand island. Pizza Man Dan, you rock! read more

Always great food and friendly service! The whole franchise is great but the owners here are all family (literally) and it shows. Always warm greeting when coming in the door and great food! They've made a couple of special requests for me in the past and it wasn't at all necessary but very appreciated! Great place for pizza, salad bar and some wine & beer! read more

My family and I went here for dinner tonight. We walked in and asked the cashier for the $9.99 special, among other things. He said ok and placed our order. We ordered it for dine in. Well, after looking at our itemized bill in the middle of our meal, it was actually charged as $19.99. So I got up and spoke to the manager. She said the special is only for take out, and it's written on the sign outside. Be that as it may, we did not see that sign outside. We went there on a recommendation from a friend to get the special. We weren't looking at signs outside. And you would think the cashier would have mentioned the price would double after we requested the $9.99 for dine in. He should've mentioned to us that our price would change drastically. If we would have known, we most certainly would've ordered it take out. Double the price just to eat inside?? What a rip off. The kid already made a mistake on another item we ordered which made it to where I didn't even start eating until everyone else was done. I just feel like he was poorly trained, and the manager could've done something more to correct it. I've worked in the restaurant business for years, and it is common courtesy/knowledge that you inform thr customer of ANY price changes. That way there can be no misunderstandings. The customer service could be much better at this location. read more

For us gluten intolerant pizza lovers - this is THE BEST gluten free crust I've ever had - and for those of us with arthritis, we know tomato doesn't help -- they offer pesto and other sauces ... the toppings are fresh, the pizza I build is exquisite. read more

Stopped in with some friends tonight for my favorite pizza, a large meatzza no dough (keto friendly) pizza and a large salad. I was very impressed to see that Dan is on top of current events (romaine lettuce e. Coli outbreak) and has no romaine lettuce at his salad bar, which is a staple. It's great to see him reacting to current events and still putting out amazing food! read more

This rustys/dans was a cool place in the 2000s, if I remember there were a few machines and a nice siZed room if you had a banquet. Cool spot nestled right next to victoria pub read more

Tyson is the BEST delivery guy I've ever had. Our complex makes it extremely hard to find our apartment and he was so kind and patient when trying to find our apartment. By far the most awesome delivery we have ever had. Thanks Tyson! read more

Wings are a bit dry sometimes but really great customer service super super nice. The food tastes great overall!!

Terrible delivery service. Took nearly 2 hrs to get my pizza due to lack of understanding on their people who took order. Think I'll just stay with Toppers there I know they get it right. read more

Had a blood donor coupon, was looking forward to a pizza since pay day left me with no money, they refused the coupon because it was expiree by less than 24 hours, i guess it's my fault for not looking at the expiration date... just kind of a downer. read more

Tried the deep dish, unfortunately, was super chewy and very dry. Stick to the regular crust its much better. It went from a more premium tasting pizza (regular crust) to tasting like a cheap (little ceasars) quality tasting pizza. However, instead of a $7 price tag, here its $20+. The deep dish crust here needs some major revamp and work done to improve it. Don't recommend getting it over the thin crust, was very disappointed. read more

Dan is the MAN! Great service and reliable Delivery! Food is great, in fact the best take out in Ventura!! Thanks for always being hot, reliable and tasty!!! read more
