Went in for a pickup order and the employee I encountered had 0 customer service etiquette. He had a hoodie over his head tucked away in the back and when I approached he didn't even greet me as if I was welcomed. Bagged the food aggressively and placed it on the counter without a word. Very off putting . read more

Great neighborhood pizza joint! Decided to give this place a try and was not disappointed! The ingredients were awesome and we had trouble choosing between the signatures pies as all of them sounded incredible. We ended up going with half purple haze and half appetite for destruction. They're both super tasty - my only critique on the pizza was the dough was slightly under seasoned. The staff is super welcoming and friendly and we will definitely be back. Don't sleep on the wings! read more

This place is incredible. I love the interior if you're into rock and roll Classic Rock great pictures and one of the best $20 deals in town with no further. Atmosphere is like that of a bar which they have but when it comes to the pizza and the salad, my favorite deal is two slices of salad and then I ordered a soda but if you order a draft beer, the total deal is $20 but if you drink soda? The seating is incredibly comfortable. I did not have to wait very long for my food. The salad is crunchy delicious and I ordered blue cheese dressing, but my two choices for pizza? Out for the classes so I'd have one slice of sausage one slice of pepperoni. If you can find parking steal it, this is the place to go to. Oh my God the pizza is delicious. It is beautiful Chris. Cool music great artwork... I wish I could stay here forever. The pizza slices are perfect and they make each bite welcome the next bite! read more

If you're looking for a great slice of pizza, then this is not it. I had a cheese slice and a sausage slice for $11. Unfortunately, neither were very good. The service was good and friendly. No problems there. The ambiance is casual and loud (like a rock show) and it was giving more of a bar vibe than pizza/by/the-slice vibe. That's probably why most people go there- to drink. They had karaoke there, though, so that is probably fun. read more

Rock'n Pies - Cheese Slice & Meatball Slice - pizza is not very tasty - Pizza Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Worst experience in recent memory? They do Saturday Night karaoke starting around 9:30. I like karaoke and they have good wings so I come in once or twice a month, and tonight I came in- the karaoke guy has asked me before not to look at me while I was singing. Okay, never did that on purpose but he sits to the left and I'm left handed holding the mic in my left hand, so I could see how I was facing toward him I guess? Anyway I went in tonight and went to sign up for a song and karaoke guy stops me and said "before you sign up I gotta talk to you. I don't want you singing love songs to me. You can't sing while you're looking at me. It's sexual harassment and I'm tired of it." At first I thought he was joking but he just kept on going. I said "well I wasn't intending to look at you, I apologize" and he cuts me off and says "well you were. I'm tired of it. I don't care if you're gay, I don't care who's gay, I am not comfortable with it anymore." I try to say "but I'm not gay..." but what would that matter? I'm straight but this dude was straight spitting homophobia at me. I keep trying to tell him I was not interested in him whatsoever and he reiterates that it's sexual harassment. I ask him if he wants me to leave and not come back (trust, I wouldn't want to attend his karaoke again after this anyway) and he says "no, I want you to sing and have a good time, I just don't want you harassing me" What the fuck. This is a man at least 15 years older than me. I'm not interested in this dude whatsoever, I'm straight anyway, and I only ever came to sing songs that I like to sing. I was never staring this dude down. I closed out my check even though I'd just ordered, and I'm never going back. Most messed up thing that's happened to me in a LONG time. read more

We desired an informal and friendly neighborhood eatery. Happily discovered. Excellent pizza, and ample pasta dishes and more. Beer always cold, good wine selection. A sports bar for big games. Wonderful wait staff, and gracious owner who is often enjoying as is his guests. Child and single adult friendly. read more

I implore you to allow your hunger to seek refuge with this scrumptious pie (or any other from their menu). Feast thy gaze upon the 20" Appetite For Destruction. Perfection wouldn't provide the necessary justice required by adjectives to describe this pie. Crust? A supreme combination of fluffy and crispy. Ingredients? A divine freshness and aroma to couple the immaculate grandiloquence that is the pie itself. I must ask ... nay - beg you to not waste any more of that precious cash on any other establishment. read more

Rock'n Pies - 20" Appetite For Destruction - Pizza Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Rock'n Pies - Slice of greasy cheese and pepperoni. Okay. - Pizza Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Love the ambiance. Has a nice retro rock aesthetic with a touch of East coast pizza joint, crossed with a hint of 50's diner. It's airy and fun. Service is decently. As a hardcore Boston pizza lover, there are very few places I can recommend in LA for parlor pizza (not the fancy Italian pizza restaurants, but slice joints). Rock'n Pies is ok. Slices are average compared to back home, and the meatballs appie is pretty decent. But there is one item on this menu that I will always come back here for: their signature "Appetite for Destruction" pizza is a class of its own. It is a meat-lovers pizza, with bacon, sausage and pepperoni, BUT with some sex juice.... a touch of balsamic reduction drizzle. This changes everything. It's like discovering that you have remove the plastic from cheese slices before you make a grilled cheese sandwich. This balsamic tweak just makes the pizza amazeballs! Who comes to a restaurant for one dish? I do. I can't tell you how many restaurants are ok, except for the ONE dish to rule them all. At Rock'n Pies.... even my deacon will attest, it is hondo hands down the Appetite for Destruction. read more

Hours interesting so look before you go, wish they were open earlier for lunch. Make sure you validate parking in the back. I like the deals, 2 slices and a beer. Slices are nice and big and with a good amount of toppings. Caesar salad is the right price. Music is usually solid, pretty sure that the workers build the playlists. Good spot for sport watching, not crowded enough that you often can choose a sport if it's not on. Has wi-fi, which I like, but not common for a sports/pizza spot. read more

Hidden gem! Love coming here with friends to share large pizzas and great beers on tap, also good for a family dinner. Love the comfy booths. Oh and the Caesar salad with homemade dressing is a must!!! read more

The pizza was delicious. The only thing that was weird was how we ordered our food. We sat down and had to wait a while until the waiter was free. The waiter was also bar tending. Which was why it may have been confusing to us. Other than that, the food was great. Oh, and when we were done eating, no one came to give us our check so we were confused as to where to pay. and had to ask for it ourselves. it was just a confusing experience but the food and staff were nice! read more

Just the worst experience I've had here in years. Never had a problem here from way back when it was NY & C. But tonight, a server tossed my 2 slices of pizza to go that was in a to-go box on the bar, while I was in the men's room. Okay, fine, a misunderstanding, I said give me one slice to go since I had been eating part of the slices while I was finishing my beer. Server brought out a slice for me to go, but the attitude he gave me was ridiculous. He said he was giving me a "free slice" even though I ate most of the 2 slices. He said I should get the f*** out of there and never come back since I was complaining. The guy was so rude that I will take him up on his suggestion and never come back. Sorry Brian, Jane, Russell & other regulars, but i won't be back. read more

This place is pretty sweet.If you're a music snob like myself. Loved all the rad posters on the wall - damn I wish I could have seen Rob Zombie and the Melvins at the Santa Monica Civic. The cheese sticks stretch longer than a Phish jam They even have crazy dollar bills on the walls which makes this currency tracking dork happy The staff was cool and the food was pretty decent, I really enjoyed the Purple Haze. Stoked to come back here in the future when I was s slice and some good tunes read more

Delicious East Coast style pizza in a place that's designed to look like a concert venue. Cool music themed murals adorn the walls and a rocking soundtrack plays in the background while you eat. The two slices and a beer or soda deal here is really good. There's also a decent craft beer selection, as well as a beer selection in general. I got a meatball slice and a mushroom slice with a craft IPA. This came to $17 before tax and tip ($2 extra for the 'craft'). The pizza was really good. It reminded me of New York style slices from places I used to work at when I was in high school. I would actually love to come back and try one of their specialty pizzas. I wasn't sure if those were available as a slice. The service seem pretty standard. We had a big group, and there was only one maybe two people Kinda, working in the place. But the person was helpful and efficient. There's also TV so you can watch games while you eat and drink. Overall, this place is pretty great and represents a great value I think. read more

If you grew up on New York pizza, you'll probably want to skip this place. I've eaten there a couple times, and got takeout (eggplant parmesan) once. Pizza: The crust is just wrong (too dense and too hard) - if you're looking for New York pizza, this isn't it. The sauce is ok, but sort of weak. The toppings are good. I've gotten their pizza by the slice and as a whole pie. The individual slices were better than the pie, which doesn't really make sense, but that was my experience. Eggplant Parm: Nothing special. Greasier than ideal and the spaghetti was overcooked. But this was a takeout order - maybe it would have been better if I'd eaten there. Service is fine, but not particularly friendly. The ambiance is nice - it's a perfectly fine place to sit around. If only the pizza was better. Note: I've been there with non-New Yorkers who seemed to like it much more than I did. I question their taste, but if you have a less-discerning pizza palate, you might like Rock'n Pies more than I did. I chose not to share my opinions with these non-NY friends, because they were happy and there was no reason to rain on their parade. I wouldn't choose to go back to Rock'n Pies on my own, but if I was with other people who really wanted to eat there, I'd probably shut up and eat a slice of not-great pizza. read more

The place over all is great. Our order was promptly taken and our food came out quickly. (They weren't to busy). The place is filled with rock memorabilia, and album covers in the restroom. We ordered two pies and wings. The wings were the star of the show. Juicy and the buffalo sauce was on point. The pepperoni pizza was fantastic. The second one not so much. Bacon, pineapple and jalapeño. The pineapple wasn't sweet and the jalapeños weren't spicy at all. What really got me was the beer was warm. My wife and I had ordered a beer each and the beer was slightly cool. I ordered a Guinness and that was pretty much room temp. The food was good but the beer being warm is what is keeping me from Coming back. read more

The pizza is phenomenal here! I highly recommend it. I come here with my dad a lot and we have a lot of fun, the food is also really good along with the drinks! The service is also very good because they're very friendly and the food arrives very quickly. I highly recommend this place. :3 read more

Glad we decided to stop in for dinner on a Friday night. Not too busy and service was pretty good. The Cesar salad is delicious and their mozzarella sticks and crispy and cheesy. I got the 2 slices + soda for $10 which is a good deal to me. Pizza slices were a lot bigger than I thought too, which was a pleasant surprise. Maybe size does matter! read more

Delicious New York Style pizza! Great deal for Santa Monica! Got the two slices and a soda deal! Would recommend

Cool spot to grab a beer and pizza and watch a game. They have a lot of TVs throughout the restaurant . You can get 2 slices and a soda for $10 or 2 slices and a beer for $15. Not the best pizza but it's decent. Good service. read more

They messed up my order and overcharged me, which was understandable cause I had the same name as the other person who they switched my order with. They corrected it but as far as the pizza goes. Many years ago, I had a pizza from this place, that was amazing. I got one of their margarita pizzas And this was like the worst 1970s frozen pizza you could possibly imagine. Six little dots of mozzarella that didn't even really melt into the pizza at all and terrible flavor. Kind of seems like this is just a sports bar that has wings and pizzas now but really cares about making their money on alcohol. read more

Excellent fresh food! Thin NY style pizza, great garlic knots, and the chopped salad is fantastic! Great music and overall vibe. Can't wait to try Tuesday trivia night! read more

This is a diamond in the rough. Great ambiance with the 80s Rick memorabilia, the staff is super kind and helpful and the food is great. Everything on tap is awesome but I'm a Guinness guy so it's always the same for me. The buffalo wings and cheese sticks were amazing but didn't get to the pizza which I will next time. Can't wait to come back. read more

Talk about a hidden winner. The food is really good and not expensive. In fact, two slices and a soda for $10 or make it a beer for $5 more is a great start to any night. And you'll be pretty sated! We get the pies and slices on the soft (not crispy) side, both are great. The chicken parm sandwich is REALLY good and the kids love the pasta special. We order a side of meatballs and the 2 year old picky eater devours them, the 6 year old claims they're his favorite in the world. The owner is the kind that will probably come by and ask how's dinner. He wants to know. The guy has this warm smile and is special nice to kids. We go there at least once a month and are always pleased with food, price and great service. read more

This was the closest pizza place to Venice beach that was open later on a Sunday and it was great! I'd say skip the $8 garlic fries but the kettle chips were great and the side salad was also solid! My main issue was that the pizza just had way too much arugula on top and it really overpowered the other flavors. I'd definitely give another pizza a try though because I think this place has great potential! The service was good and the restaurant was dark with lots of rock and roll memorabilia and great music. The prices were also really good for the area. read more

OTM 12/12/21-12/18/21 A very, very generous option for OTM subscribers. You get a free medium (12") pizza that is pretty good. I believe it's a $17 value. Honestly, can't complain for the price! There was an option to add a half Caesar salad with a soda for $4. Of course I couldn't pass that up! The croutons in the salad were unbelievable. To be honest, arguably some of the best that I've ever had. Now, my rating would drop down to a 4 star if I came here without the OTM offer. Why? The pizza lacked a variety of flavors. Also, the cheese fell off too easily on almost every slice that I picked up. Again, the food is pretty good, but not 5 star worthy. There is free parking in the back! I'd also like to add that the gentleman that was serving me was extremely hospitable and respectful. read more

I've been a frequent customer here for the last few years, and I've got nothing but good things to say. First off, the atmosphere at this restaurant is very flexible - there are massive booths for if you want to eat with friends, as well as smaller tables for if you're more of a loner like myself. And if you need a place to sit down and get some work done, the chairs are comfy and firm, and the tables are wide enough to accommodate your materials. The free wi-fi combined with quite a few charging outlets helps as well (admittedly, the outlet availability varies depending on the time. That alone gets this place on my good side, but the food itself puts this place over the moon. They've got a phenomenal $10 2 slice + drink combo, and you can make additional moderations to your slices (like toppings or a side salad) for a very reasonable fee. And if you want to splurge a little more, their chicken parmesan is fantastic. Barring an unforseen circumstances, I'll be coming back here again and again. read more

Rock'n Pies was very generous to OTM subscribers, providing a beautiful 12" Appetite for Destruction pizza loaded with pepperoni, sausages, and bacon. Normally OTM just get a slice or a small 10" pie from pizzerias, so this was a treat! The balsamic reduction sauce really brightened an otherwise one-note pie. I also liked the thin crust a lot. Baked perfectly. Very fun rock and roll deco with a drum set lamp hanging from the ceiling. read more

Worst establishment... this is the second time I've ordered from this place and the first time they told me my pizza would be ready in 25 minutes. It took them 45 minutes to have my order ready and it was the wrong order. Gave them the benefit of the doubt, order a second time again, this time it took them 1 hour to have my order ready after they said my order would be ready in 25 minutes again. This place should seriously consider closing their doors down for the horrible service they provide. read more

This restaurant was recommended to me by my friend Clyde a couple of months ago. I am always open to pizza nearby, and especially if it's a local small business. I was surprised to find it is a Sports Bar with a lot of TV screens everywhere you look. Not exactly my visual jam. However, the music playing was fantastic and the friendly people working there were terrific and helpful. And it is not just a pizza joint. Great menu and they serve slices... I immediately ordered a veggie with sausage slice. The crust was a little crunchy ( I asked for crispy) but toppings were fresh and cheese to sauce ratio were on point. I actually sat at the bar alone and felt perfectly comfortable. I, then ordered a veggie and cheese pie to take home to share later on with my husband... he agreed that this was a great choice. We have gotten several pies since and every one was delicious. I intend to try some entrees in the near future and highly recommend you all try this establishment! Affordable price points, lovely staff and again, great music... oh and for for Sports Fans, a definite "must go to" place to enjoy their food, beers and multi-screen sporting events! read more
