Pan pizza. Pepperoni and pineapple

Some of my favorite pizza in the WORLD. my bf and I live a couple hours up the coast but every time we drive down to SoCal for trips we always stop here. It's our favorite pizza and on of our favorite traditions!

Garlic cheese bread (small order)

The positives for this location are there is plenty of parking in the lot and ample seating in the dining room. This is a walk in, order at the counter, and find your seat kind of place. Easy breezy. They have an average looking salad bar, but we did not order. They also have some beers on tap but we did not order, so I am not sure of the variety. The negatives about the space is for kids there are only about 4 or 5 really dated video games and for adults only one small TV. I found it odd that the NFL playoff game was not on, but they were showing UFC prelims. There is nothing great to say about the food. The pizza honestly tasted like a high quality frozen pizza. We opted for the thin crust so I am not sure if we would have had a better opinion if we ordered thick crust. We also ordered the garlic cheese bread which is made on their thick crust. This was average but it is really hard to disappoint me with bread and cheese. We would not return and probably would have been just as happy getting something out of the Target freezer section (same parking lot).

Hola yelpers: Hoy en días de nunca estamos a dieta, tocó pizza bbq, con coca de dieta por qué equilibra la grasa . De Rusty's creo es mi favorito lo que es el Sauce ranch, ya que es el sabor de cualquier cosa que pidas. Mi invitado quedó fascinado con la pizza y más su delicioso Ranch. Así que sin más por el momento yelpers. Pidan sus deliciosas pizzas ... Saludos

Dropped by This Rusty's for a 5 year olds b day party. The ambiance was casual & Pizza Pies are PREEMO! There's a reason why all Rusty's are Santa Barbara locals favorites. We shall return.

I went here on Tuesday and the food was good. I've never been to Rusty's before so I was a bit curious. I had a pepperoni and pineapple pizza and a pepperoni pizza as well. Also the guy that took our order was nice. I don't remember his name though.

This pizza place is really really good! In our group we got two pizzas, two orders of wings, and a garlic cheese bread. The crust was so good, we got thin crust and we were impressed! The wings had good flavor (both the Hot and Mango Habanero) and a good kick of heat which we were happy about. The interior is cute, there is information up by the entrance about how it used to be a bank. Overall a really good experience and great pizza and wings!

two boxes of pizza and a bottle of coke

See all

Not much to write home about. It's like Dominos. Some people may like it but this isn't real pizza in my opinion.

High price, so a rarer pizza event. They do have the best informal seating for pizza around though - at any one of their locations

If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. However, it wasn't necessarily the establishment but…read morerather who works behind the scenes. I just wanted to write this review for an absolute work tank called Erick. I was having a bad day, came in pretty late after Soltopia had ended and right away Erick noticed something wasn't quite alright with me. Couple minutes go by and Erick comes with appetizers as well as a pitcher of Beer, says it's on him and to think of it as a "pick me up." He sits down and asks me what's been going on, I build up the courage to tell him and he's just there, listening, which is really all I needed at the time. Well time goes by and before I knew it I was smiling and laughing, I had temporarily forgotten the reason why I had came in looking so sad. I'm personally a firm believer of it isn't what's in the establishment, but more so WHO's in the establishment which is why I went out of my way to write this. Woodstocks is so lucky to have such a high calibre of an employee working for them!

I was surprised by their take on how they develop their crust. It's folded over the slice making for an interesting texture profile. Each bite was packed with flavor and the crust was great enough on its own! I'm also a big ranch with pizza guy and their ranch is phenomenal. Big kudos to Woodstocks for absolutely crushing it!

The best thing about this restaurant is their fries! I never had fries quite like there fries. Their fries are so crispy and is one of the main reasons why we come here. I would usually rate this restaurant 5 stars but after this recent visit I am giving 4 stars. They raised their prices and were extremely disappointed they cut the fries portion in half. Especially since this was one of the best things about this restaurant. I have attached a photo of eating here at Jane's and Aug 2025 and coming back 4 months later to be severed fries that is half the size. They now put the fries in a fry container to make it seem like it's more fries but once you put it on the plate it's such a small amount of fries. The second reason why we come here is for the coconut cake. The cake is always moist never dry when we order the cake however sometimes it can be a hit or miss with how much cake you will actually get. Because sometimes if you order the cake you will get a slice that has more cream and frosting and not as much of a cake layer. Not to mention they raised the price to $14 for a single slice of cake?! Which is so expensive. $14 is almost like ordering half a cake. I really hope that Jane's Restaurant can consider making these changes because their fries and coconut cake is what makes this restaurant amazing Service -Staff is always friendly Note: -They have plenty of indoor and outdoor seating -They are in the same plaza that has a few stores and other restaurants close by
