I was in Carp with my Tia and she highly recommended we eat at Tina's. The pizzza was so good! I really enjoyed it. Service was great and staff was nice. I really like the ambiance at Linden Square. It was pretty busy but we found a spot to sit and enjoy our pizza/drinks! read more

I wish there was a 1/2 star system on here. Tina's Pizzeria = 4.5 stars We wanted to grab Bettina but on their website, they've opened another pizza joint in Carpenteria called Tina's Pizzeria. Took a look and noticed the menu is almost the same, and the vibe is the cuter more casual younger sister of Bettina's. Placed the Pepperoni pizza online but we skipped on the chili oil and asked for the honey on the side. The location is located inside Linden Square, which is a small outdoor food hall with a laid-back hip vibe. Street parking is plentiful and pretty easy. Our pizza was ready upon our arrival. They provided plates and napkins and they also gave small cups of chili peppers that you can grab, which we did. A lot of open tables in the outdoor dining area although all of the available ones were in the sun. Oh well... Upon opening the pizza box, we were met with a beautiful pizza without the skimp of pepperoni. And you know, the pepperoni had that perfect curl. Took a photo first and then went in for the first slice. Just the right amount of sauce. You can taste a bit of the tang from the sourdough crust. As you eat toward the crust, it's chewy and crispy. Delicious! We sprinkled some chili peppers on and drizzled it with honey, and it was good. However, we're simple folks and prefer OG pepperoni pizza. Pizza put us back about $27, including tax. But life is short, don't skimp; splurge and live. If you love Neapolitan style pizza, and you're somewhere in the Carpenteria / SB / Ventura area, definitely give Tina's a try. The area is also really nice to walk around after! Also, the restrooms in Linden Square are so clean - another upside! read more

If you haven't soaked in enough California surf and sun and want to linger in beachy cool vibe over some delicious sourdough pizza, then you must head over to Tina's Pizza. Admittedly, Tina's Pizza's location at Linden Square, with its charming, spacious patio with restaurants that spill into the outdoor space, adds the 5th star in my book. On its own, Tina's Pizza is a solid 4, but it benefits from its plum spot. Whether you're strolling back from the beach or you really are that picture-perfect sun-kissed family that looks like they stepped off a Reformation photo shoot, this place is for you. The pizzas are no joke either. The sourdough crust is crispy and airy, providing just enough structure for the toppings. I'm a sucker for button pepperoni slices and Tina's is topped generously enough to make pepperoni lovers swoon. Add some of Tina's chili oil and you've got a party in your mouth. Whether you are spending the day in Carpinteria or passing through, make a point to head over to Tina's Pizza. read more

Really disappointing service experience, despite the food being decent. We came in around 2:30pm and ordered pizza. The young man at the register accidentally rang up a sandwich, but he immediately corrected the mistake and was very polite throughout the interaction. We honestly didn't think much of it. Unfortunately, the blonde woman at the register completely changed the tone of our visit. When we went to pick up our pizza, she abruptly yelled, "Are you listening? Did you hear me? Your sandwich isn't ready yet." The young man tried to explain the situation to her, but she gave us a dirty look and loudly told the cooks, "They changed their mind!" with a very rude attitude. Mistakes happen, and the cashier handled it professionally. The unnecessary hostility from the other employee really put a damper on our experience. read more

This place is inside the Linden Square complex which I am not a fan of, but definitely a fan of Tina's. Their menu is a nice assortment of casual Italian fare. We LOVED their pizzas, the dough was light and airy with just the right crunch on the crust, and its sourdough so it tasted just incredible. The toppings are decent really liked the quality of the toppings. The line was out the door and it took 40 minutes to get a pizza. There is no service as you order and pick it up via a buzzer. read more

Been eating Rusty's Pizza for years. Got tired of it so my wife found Tina's. I'm so glad before this is the dough I've been looking for. The pizza's are so good and so have they have the mini pepperonis. read more

Food was very good Service was nice and easy. Hardest part is finding a table during busy times. read more

It's really great to have this spot in Linden Square in Carpinteria. The pizza is amazing and so are the cookies. It's really the dough. It's something special and makes the crust incredible. I keep coming back to the pepperoni pizza. It's loaded with pepperoni slices and the honey is a great touch. read more

I visited Carpinteria State Beach on a Sunday, and our family was craving pizza. Tina's Pizza was just a short 10-minute walk away. We ordered two pepperoni pizzas to go, and they did not disappoint! They had a lot of pepperoni and the drizzle of honey gave them a unique, tasty touch. They provided plates, napkins, forks, and pepper on the side, which made it super convenient for us to enjoy at the beach. read more

I've thus far only had the square slice they offer at lunch-it's awful. Maybe their regular menu pizzas are better, I'll have to try but don't don't buy the square slice read more

Pepperoni Pizza was good but could have used more basil Service was slightly condescending read more

Finally tried Tina's Pizza at Linden Square. The crust was legit and the toppings were super fresh. Cool spot to kick back with good food and hang out. Can't wait to go back and try more. read more

Big fan of Bettinas this place not so much. I am quite livid today I ordered a pineapple pizza. Look I just wanted to try something different don't get upset at me. Anyways the pancetta and pineapple were not the problem. The problem was this pizza came with no marinara sauce (my fault for not noticing). From there the pizza also had cilantro and bbq sauce which were not listed. Really disgusting combo something you would get at California pizza kitchen. I realize its a second restaurant but need a bit more quality control and direction. Does not come close to Bettinas 2.3/5 my brother says do not try the bbq sauce read more

We we're camping and stumbled across this great little courtyard with nice couches and ambience fire pits dog friendly. We had two pizzas a bottle of wine. Everything was amazing. Definitely get the chili oil to put on your pizza. It's nice and thin isn't very filling which means you can have more pizza than you usually - the Caesar salad is highly recommended read more

Delicious pizza. prepared perfectly and fresh. Nice location. I hope they get plenty of patrons to earn a steady living while continuing to make the pizza fresh. read more

If you don't mind rude service go here. Got hung up on while trying to place an order. Called again and the lady on the other end didn't apologize and just wanted to rush my order and get me off the phone. We are locals and we'll never go back. We got the same experience with Bettina in Montecito....not worth the attitude for good food. read more

I'm a local and gave this place a solid many months of regular business because I wanted it to succeed. Over that time, I've spent many hundreds of dollars here. Unfortunately, my most recent visit made it clear I won't be coming back. The food is just okay -- not bad, but nowhere near good enough to outweigh the consistently poor front-of-house experience. The host staff routinely comes across as disengaged, unfriendly, and carrying a noticeably bad attitude. On my last visit, I had an interaction with a young hostess that was unnecessarily rude and unreasonable over something minor. As a regular customer, that level of treatment reflects extremely poor customer relations. What's even more concerning is that I'm clearly not alone in this experience. Numerous friends and my girlfriend have independently commented on the same terrible demeanor and negative attitude from the staff. We genuinely found ourselves wondering why these people were hired in the first place, or perhaps even more to blame is what might be happening with upper management that has led to such low morale and consistently poor customer-facing behavior. Because of this one experience, they've lost at least six customers -- myself, my girlfriend, and several friends -- none of whom will be returning due to the attitude alone. For a new establishment, this is a serious problem. In a small town like Carpinteria, especially around Linden Square, word spreads fast. Basic professionalism and customer relations matter, and right now this place is falling well short. read more

I'm not sure what's up with all the 3,2,1 star reviews? Maybe it was a bad day or they were figuring things out but when I ate there last week it was some of the best pizza I've tried around the area. Their sourdough loaf is also amazing. It's kind of hard finding a good bakery around Ventura. I was pleasantly surprised at how good their loafs are at a pizza joint! 5 star pizza for sure! read more

i've only eaten here once so far but the service was great and the pizza was absolutely incredible. Worth every penny. There is a great local craft brewery right next-door in the same open plaza called third window so easy to grab a pint there while you wait for your pizza and sit outside in the beautiful courtyard. read more

Pepperoni meat loves pizza was spicy and had a drop of cheese. The marinara sauce was so watery and the sausage had bo flavor. I showed the lady at the counter that we had to pic off the other half of the pizza and she told me to order next time with extra cheese. Pizza is supposed to come with cheese. read more

Say what you want about hipsters, they often bring a good, or at least interesting food scene. I was looking for a spot in Carp and noticed Linden Hall, and thus Tina's. I was in the mood for a slice, so of course, they were out. I got the rigatoni bolognese instead. I'm so glad they were out of slices, my mouth is still watering thinking about the bolognese. Rich, meaty, and slightly sweet sauce in, on, and around tender rigatoni. Every bite so good. I mean, you never know, the Italian food in most pizza joints is fine, but not outstanding. This was definitely on the very good side. I was still thinking about the slices, though, so I went back the next day and got a slice of pepperoni, and a chocolate chip cookie. While their whole pies are thin crust, their slices are Detroit style. Crispy pillowy dough, with a nice sauce and spicy pepperoni. Very good as well. The cookie though...I'd use the drool emoji, but it grosses me out. The cookie is drool-worthy though. Medium thickness, crispy exterior with a soft interior. Looked like a mix of milk and dark chocolate, rich and sweet, perfect way to top off a good meal. Oh, yeah, I really did like the slice. But if I'd gotten that the first time, I might never have tried the bolognese. So I guess sometimes you gotta be a little disappointed to end up truly satisfied. Come for the food review, stay for the cheesy philosophy. Anyway, try Tina's ETA: The sourdough bread is fantastic as well. Chewy crust, soft interior with a mild tang. Easily one of my favorite sourdough loaves read more

Cesar salad was missing rapini and when questioned, they said we are out. I asked to sub basil & was told it would be an additional charge...are you kidding? Then she said she'd put red onion on it to replace the rapini. ALL with a scowled and pained face. Then the pizza was served on a paper-thin piece of paper. I was told that the manager is VERY cost conscious. A really bad look for Tina's after Betina's has worked so hard to be great. AND a never again for attitude! read more

I can't believe how grown-up Carpinteria has become, used to be the only pizza you could get when you're camping at the campground was Rusty's but that was then and this is now, I think when you come to this place, it's best to keep it simple, we got a pepperoni pie and a meat lovers pie and a salad, they also have excellent selections of wine from the area and beyond, it's a chill vibe with plenty of open seating you order at the counter and Then Pick up your food once it's ready, everything is freshly made and it's all excellent! We love Tina's! read more

We got the margherita pizza and a Caesar salad for $43 plus tip. Meh, just okay. Service was friendly. read more

Cute spot. Kinda hidden in the back corner. Open atmosphere open to all. Pizza (margarita) was on focaccia bread with light sauce on top. Little cheese. No oregano. Cost-$8.00. Wish them well. Maybe a different town would be a better idea! Montecito? Santa Barbara? Theres already 4 pizza shops in town that have a pretty loyal following. Maybe enough tourist will come through! read more

Love having Tina's in Carp! The Caesar salad is fabulous. The dressing is strong tasting and a bit addictive! Pizza delicious. Sourdough bread is heart and crusty. Yummy food! Can't help stopping in every few days! read more

I think Bettina's is the best pizza in Montecito and I'm so excited that Tina's is in Carp, but there's some work to do. Pizza came out burn burned on top and not fully cooked on the bottom. Hope feedback helps and they can get the temp on bottom and top of the pizza oven right. I think they will... It's only been a week or so, so I imagine wrinkles will be ironed out. Great space and location, though. read more

The menu on this website for the Linden Square restaurant has "Meatballs Alla Vodka" listed at $12. When I went to order it today they said it was $25. I didn't know what kind of game they are playing but I walked out. I don't know if the rest of the menu is the same way. read more

Had the BLT pizza, definitely would NOT recommend, unless you enjoy pizza so runny you don't know if it's grease, tomato sauce, or buffalo sauce, and the overall taste was not worth it's price, very underwhelming. read more

Tina's Pizza is a really cute little place, however, I was surprised that their meat lovers Pizza was so spicy that I couldn't even eat it. The pizza was extremely thin, burnt and there was no choice as to a regular or thick crust. We also ordered a $20 Caesar salad and was a little taken back that the lettuce looked wilted and brown. The sourdough bread was amazing however. Overall, we were underwhelmed. The lady working the register acted like she didn't want to be there. She seemed a bit offended when we asked for a diet soda. Everything they offered was "healthy" and we had to go next door to get a regular diet soda and a beer. Overall, everything was extremely expensive and we will not go back. read more

Best pizza I have ever tasted! Would highly recommend the pepperoni pizza. Seating can be challenging but worth it!

I feel so lucky that my friends suggested Tina's for dinner. Some of the best pizza I've ever had. We got the margarita and pepperoni. I loved those roni cups. Perfect size and great taste. I'll be returning for sure read more
