    Upgraded Lunch Specials as of September 2025

    This place is all about the vibes. It's family friendly and a great place to gather with friends. The service is a hit or miss. We've been here more than a few times to know this but again, this is a place to go with friends. The waitress sometimes get the orders right but most often things get forgotten. They don't write the order down which I think leaves room for errors. I've asked for the dressing on the side and it still comes mixed in my salad. The food is average and the menu is extensive and they just revamped it. They do have a kids menu so make sure to ask for that. Again, sometimes they give it to you and sometimes you have to ask. The inside is spacious but it can get loud especially during game days.

    Left most all of the brocolli.

    Trying out this place for the first time on a Saturday evening. The menu (design) is really awful and hard to follow. They have pizza listed on one side and then upon flipping another section of pizza. Words of all sizes and many different fonts, all randomly placed about. No consistency. The laminated 11x17 felt cheap and could easily use an update. Now about the food. The chicken Marsala did not taste fresh. I'm not sold that the sauce was homemade as it tasted very sugary. Besides coming out luke-warm, and the capellini it was served with being watery and very little flavor (I had to dump a bunch of grated Parmesan on it) , it satisfied as a meal. The brocolli looked great and bright green but undercooked and no flavor. Tried the meatball sliders and don't know how to describe them. Strange texture, too many things going on with sauce and meatball flavor. These things should be simple not complicated. The price for the pizza is outrageous. 10" pie with three toppings was $25! Vegans cheese addition to another pie was $7.50 more making that pie $38. Too much for a local pizza shop. Won't return.

    Thats a great pie!

    We used to live close to this place and went quite a bit, so when my wife was having her hair done close to Crust all I could think of was that pie there are very few places down in this north county area, where the pizza is exactly how I like it. Thin crust, great ingredients, all fresh, and a variety of how those ingredients are put on the pie. I'm not a big fan of mushrooms or red onions and Scott the manager gets that. So you walk out with exactly the pie and the flavor profile that you want that for me makes a great pizza and a great experience. That's the takeout part. If you're gonna to eat at crust get ready cause it's a party, there's something going on every night and it's really fun. So great pizza great drinks and great fun. That is a win.

    Lovely pizza!

    Received a burnt pizza from Solana beach Crust, called to complain and they said there is nothing they can do!

    Visiting from out of town. Found this place on Google. Came in during happy hour and Scott was the only server working and it was fairly busy. He took care of us right away and service was amazing! Pizza was delicious! We will definitely be back!

    Food: 4 Service: 5 Ambiance: 5 The outside might look unlikely, but the inside of the restaurant has the completely opposite vibe! It was giving classy sports bar. Everyone who worked there gave off great energy, and I felt comfortable being honest with them. All the food was delicious and things I would order again. The wings were the star of the meal. Described as sweet and spicy by our server - I could've eaten them all day The garlic bread with the ravioli was pleasantly soft and flavorful without being overpowering. The Brussels sprouts came in a very large portion and very crispy and tender. Unfortunately, our pizza came out with burnt crust (on the bottom so cannot be seen in the photo). Because of this, I couldn't really taste any of the flavors in the pizza. We told our server and she kindly didn't charge us for it. Overall, would have given this a 4.5 if I could. I want to go back and give the pizza another shot, but also to try the other menu items !

    Do they have a GF crust?

    We do! It comes in a 10 inch size which we cut in four slices and it's mainly made up of white rice and potato flour! It's quite delicious.…

Clean spot and people are so friendly! They have plenty of seating inside and outside in the back. They have a nice bar seating area at the front with a big window to look onto the street. There are a couple spots to sit out front as well. Lots of people and a great vibe! It is dog friendly as we did see some adorable pups! They even has some cool art for sale that's hung on their side wall. They have pretty cool merch (great logo!) to check out when you walk in. As well as a cold box for your to go beer and some snacks. They did have a food truck out back and it smelled great! They have a couple bathrooms and they were clean enough! Staff super friendly and got our beer quick! Hubby had the IPA and I always go for the stout! So good and cool/refreshing after a long day in the sun!

Tonight I tried a 10oz boozy cherry sour slushee as I was totally soaked in sweat after a 4 mile run. Others in my group also a hot sweaty mess so I didnt feel bad. One guy I am friends with was trying to wring out sweat from his shirt, thats how hot and humid it was tonight for a run lol. Unfortunately, this drink did not do it for me. There wasn't any wrong with the drink but the consistency was off and I felt like I was drinking air and not a slushy. It was just too pumped with air and had no critical mass to it. I still give this place 5 stars because I have been coming here for the past couple of months for run club and beers are consistently good, service always friendly and they also give us a 10% discount for being part of run club! Great place to gather for a jog and to socialize after, you'll def find me here on Monday nights over and over again!

I ordered French Fries, Burrata Caprese Salad, Pepperoni Pesto Ricotta Pizza, Burrata Sausage and Hot Honey Pizza ( Detroit Style) and Pesto Burrata Chicken Sandwich ( substituted sun dried tomatoes for regular tomato slices). Everyone enjoyed all the food. The favorite hands down was the Detroit Style Hot Honey Pizza. It was very rich and I had a small piece which was very filling. The crust was crispy and the flavor was layered perfectly with the hot honey. 10/10! I must also say that the French Fries being fried in beef tallow really enhanced their flavor. Perfect. Will definitely try more things from their menu. It ranks among my top 3 Pizza Restaurants.

Carly was our bartender/server for the day and she was fantastic. The tap list is pretty good, but they do not offer a hard seltzer. Kombucha and cider, yes, but they're not the same, so Becky had to settle for a beer which is never ideal. We were just there for a couple of drinks but I did check out the menu, and the Burrata Sausage Hot Honey pizza caught my eye, (mozzarella, homemade marinara, burrata, sausage, hot honey). I could not get that out of my head. We were camping across the 101 at San Elijo State Beach so I told Becky that we had to return. I needed that slice! The following day we returned for a light lunch. We ordered at the counter and took our number to our table on the patio. About five minutes later our food was delivered. That slice was everything I thought it would be and more! The thin crust was crispy and light. The sausage was exceptional. The hot honey was actually hot! Too many times hot honey is just honey. This was as advertised. Becky chose a slice of Pepperoni (tomato sauce topped with pepperoni, provolone, and mozzerella) Also a great slice. The provolone was a game changer and the sauce was delectable. excellent pizza! Carly, 5-stars! :-) Pizza, 5-stars! :-) Service at the counter, 5-stars! :-) Vibe indoors and outside, 5-stars! :-) No seltzer, 3- stars. :-( Uncomfortable Barstools, 2-stars. :-( Best Pizza and Brews Cardiff - get some!

For years, we've walked in greeted not just with smiles, but with genuine warmth-- the kind of customer service that remembers you, that makes you feel like you belong. The slices? Pure poetry. Crisp, golden edges giving way to a perfect distribution of cheese and sauce, with each bite - a perfect harmony of flavor and comfort! And then... the garlic knots. Oh, the garlic knots!! Dripping in rich garlic butter, showered with parmesan, sprinkled with fresh parsley-- they don't just arrive at the table; they make an entrance. DECADENCE is the only word that fits! We've watched this place grow-- transforming into a larger, more inviting space, without ever losing its heart. It's still the same soul, just with more room to gather, more space to savor. And now, with new pasta dishes on the horizon, we're already counting the days-- because if they're anything like the pizza, we're in for something truly special! Here's to East Coast Pizza-- a place we'll keep returning to, a business we're proud to support, and flavors - out of this world!

I got two slices and a beer and it came to $17 and some change. I got the artichoke slice and it was decent. It was pretty dry for the most part with just a few pieces of artichoke. I would give it a 5 out of 10. The second slice was the nastiest piece of cardboard I've ever eaten. They call it the buffalo chicken. It was a thin piece of crust slathered in Buffalo sauce with literally one piece of chicken on the entire slice. I tasted absolutely no cheese. I took one bite and the sauce was so overwhelming I threw the rest in the trash. I will not return. I will go to seaside market next door where the food is delicious.
