New owners and a good experience. I forgot the girl's name that helped me, but she was helpful and knowledgable. I am excited they have quality, filling, tasty pizza for a reasonable price. I hope the game room they are adding on will be good, and I hope they expand their crust options. More GF sizes and the old Doughboys had a fantastic Chicago style. read more

Located on East Grand, in the old Boston Market shopping center, is Doughboys. The guy working the back was really nice and doing it all. Service was great. The pizza was large, The dough, sauce and cheese lacked flavor. The pizza was super thin. *It'd be a lot better if the pizza had more cheese and sauce* read more

Located on Grande ave is doughboys pizza. We were greeted, our order was taken, and our cheese pizza quickly came out. This Pizza is New York style which is thin. So if you are into thin pizza, this is the place for you. Sauce is simple pizza sauce, not much flavor. I wasn't a fan of the cheese. The shop Itself is a great space, plenty of parking, and the staff is great. read more

It's goal of mine and my partner's to try a new pizzeria if we see it by chance and that's exactly what happened to Doughboys Pizzeria! However, to our demise, we didn't even order pizza! They had a deal on bogo wings and so we ordered buffalo and sweet & spicy wings (kind of like thai chili) as well as cheesy garlic roses. The wings' flavors were good but we would've wanted it crispier! The cheesy garlic roses were a little too salty for our liking. Definitely going to re-review once we get to try their pizzas! read more

We have fond memories of that old favorite pizza--this was so far removed. We stopped going to Doughboy's a few owners back. The original owner read the bad reviews and offered the next buyers their fan favorite recipes, (the recipes that had the customers coming back), but the new owners wanted to make it their own. Shame. Even if it's been too long to remember what the original pizza tasted like, the pizza was underwhelming. I've eaten Neapolitan pizza in Italy and lived in New York I wouldn't compare the pizza I ate today to either. The one thing that is similar to Italy is they don't have ice. They sell canned drinks but no ice. There are several tables inside. It's probably just good for takeout right now because it was HOT inside. The pizza was missing toppings mentioned on the menu, which we would have preferred. The BBQ sauce is too sweet for this pizza; it doesn't complement it. There are so many better pizzerias in the area. I want to be fair, they did just open, but I had highest hopes for the reopening. Currently, there is no ambiance to speak of, Also the countertop was in disarray with things like spices and the basil and green onions that the pizza was missing. The pizza was just... alright. read more

Got a Medium for $21. Seemed fair, until I got to the crust and could tell that only AP flour, water, and salt were used for the dough. Not an ideal practice but filled the gut. Great for a quicker slice than 825 Blast N Brew, but would recommend skipping rather than waiting for a quick appetite. What's more is that the bread folded on my hand while clenching, which meant that it weren't kneaded well enough for a longer stay in. Wasn't happy about the pizza, and would caution advice to your pizza hunting noses towards Pismo Beach. They tend to have quite the difference in presentation and perfecting the slice. read more

Thought we'd give the new place a try. We had a Great pizza , combination pizza lots of toppings, buffalo wings were ok, kinda need to cook a lil more a lil more crispy would be nice. We called in our order and our pizza was ready in 22 minutes for pick up. They have seating inside too. The pizza was good as I said, next time well as if they can bake it a lil longer so the crust is a crispier, kinda chewy but that's just personal preference. read more

Came in around 8 o'clock on a Wednesday night, my boyfriend and I just wanted to eat a couple of slices there and take the rest of our pizza home. One guy was doing everything, taking our order and making the order and packing it and checking out the order. He had other online orders while making ours, so we asked if we could dine in. He gave my boyfriend a face and just nodded at him. Maybe ten minutes later, he comes back up and says he still needs to make another order before ours, so do we still want to dine in or take it togo? We felt forced to take it togo, so we just said we would. We went next door to go get some agua frescas. When we came back, he checked out a couple of online orders and then told us our pizza was ready but he forgot to make our garlic roses but that they were in the oven currently. I appreciated the honesty but then he asked if we wanted to wait for it or wanted a refund. So that kind of gave me the idea that he hadn't started on them and wanted to see if we'd be willing to just leave with a refund. We wanted to try them so we said we'd wait and eat some of our pizza while we waited. When we ordered he told us they ran out of pineapple and I was pretty sad about that. If there's one topping I'd really like on my pizza, it's pineapple. But we saw this place was Pinoy owned on life of San Juan's IG and we wanted to try it. We got a combo pizza, it was good. We thought whatever size we got would be NY style but it only comes in XL. So we just got a regular pizza but it was still good. Not impressed though, especially by the garlic roses which we were excited for. I could tell he didn't want to make them, there was no garlic and barely any cheese so it was just bread. But it was cooked perfectly, for it just being ... bread roses haha. He forgot our marinara sauce with it and when my boyfriend asked he gave him another look but then said oh yeah. I forgot that. So service was kind of disheartening, sunset was nice while eating our pizza but I did feel uncomfortable knowing he just didn't want us there. Instead of asking us twice if we still wanted to dine in or if we still wanted our garlic roses, he probably could've just spent the time actually making our food and we would've been out of there quicker. It just wasn't a good ambiance and we definitely felt like it wasn't anything special. It was disappointing after watching the life of San Juan IG video about it. It looked really good, but yeah the experience and pizza just wasn't anything special and I was kind of excited I thought there'd be more Pinoy fusion flavors or something. Anyways, dont think we'll be back. read more

Doughboys has new owners. Regular pizza is amazing my family shares. unfortunately, the gluten free crust tasted very homemade and the crust was funky. I have made gf products at home before so I know how it goes. Just want to help my fellow celiacs! It was inedible and I ended up tossing the $30 pizza. Regular crust is a winner though! read more

Finally, a real New York-style slice on the Central Coast. Doughboys is back and the new owners (took over in August) are doing it right. The crust folds the way it should, sauce has legit flavor, and toppings are fresh and loaded. I grew up on NY pizza, and this is the closest I've had out here -- no gimmicks, just solid, authentic pizza. Good people running it, laid-back vibe, and a place I'll keep coming back to. If you've been looking for the real deal, Doughboys delivers read more

Ordered the "stoner" pizza on their website it has Chicken bacon jalapeños and pineapple We didn't make any modifications. We finally get to our hotel and are excited to eat only to be incredibly disappointed.... Our pizza did not have any bacon or pineapple on it like it was supposed to and somehow had an excessive amount of olives. I hate olives and would never order a pizza with them let alone add them to anything..... yes we should have checked the order before leaving the business but wtf how do they mess it up that bad they forget 2 of the ingredients and add another one.Won't be back. Learn from our mistake and check read more

This is the perfect spot for me when I have a craving for pizza. I can pick up just 1 or 2 pieces, and I'm full. The people that run it now are 5 star, and the pizza 4 star,(Regina's in Boston being the 5 star bar for me). read more

My first time at Doughboys, the man up front was polite. We built our own pizza with zucchini, salami, garlic, artichoke hearts and spinach. Since we paid for 5 toppings I would expect them to put a bit more stuff on it. If we had known how light the toppings were going to be we would have only ordered it with one or two toppings. The taste was good, but there just wasn't enough toppings on it. I also found it kind of greasy compared to other places. Casual ambiance. read more

Great pizza, one of the beat I've in quite some time. Highly recommend. Went in a ordered take out and it was ready to go in 20 minutes.

It was getting late when my husband and I decided to grab a bite at this pizza place we found open. Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with our order. The bottom of the pizza was undercooked and completely white. Since we were on vacation, we couldn't address the issue once we returned to our hotel room, but it was not an acceptable meal to eat. read more

Their new pizza sucks, it was greasy, gritty and didn't have that much flavor. Im so sad, they should've kept the old recipe.SMH

Best F**cking pizza in California!!! Will eat her over and over again. The dough blew me away and fresh toppings galore. Sure wish they had pineapple though lol read more

I was happy with the prices and disappointed in half of the food. The good: the meatballs. Large and flavorful and only slightly over cooked. The zucchini appetizer was also tasty, and a great healthier option for a vegetarian. The bad: the Caesar salad was limp and at $6.50, was laughable in portion size. Was the caesar dressing supposed to be on the side? I definitely didn't taste it. The ugly: the fettuccine alfredo. I generally prefer al dente... but not that much. And the sauce was literally watery, with no flavor. Luckily the watery sauce absorbed a little into the pasta when I added plenty of my own parmesan and pepper and attempted to bake it in the oven to make it better. But come on... you can't serve watery alfredo sauce. I'll give Doughboy's Pizzaria another shot... and order something with dough next time. Maybe that's where I went wrong. read more

Best pizza in SLO county. The dough just tastes that much better than other options around. Only downside is their app never works and their website glitches so online orders kinda have to go through Doordash which sucks cuz that's such a racket designed to squeeze/hurt business (just like Yelp!). read more

We came to Oceano for the holiday weekend. Searching for local pizzeria. Douhgboy delivered. Good sized pizzas and add on options. Ordering was easy enough, online and the pick up time was average about 35 min. The service was good and the vibe was good. I would come back again. Nocking it 1 star for the price. It was a bit pricy but the servings were generous. read more

Best takeout pizza I have had in a long long time. For context, we eat pizza a LOT and particularly in the past few months probably every week tried a new takeout place for pizza. This pizza was so good. Fluffy but crispy dough. Flavorful marinara and lots of generous toppings. We had this pizza about a week ago and every night I am like ooohhh I wish I could have some again. 100% would recommend trying this place out!! read more

This place always has great pizza. And when my wife orders gluten free, they manage to get it right with zero cross contamination. Her anima device has never detected anything. The only down side is that they took out the tables and chairs, so tourists like me can't come in and sit. We have to take it somewhere else, which isn't ideal. read more

After a few bad pizza places in the area we found Doughboy's! Thank gosh we did! We about gave up on the pizza in the area! We got the Maui Wowie (Canadian Bacon and pineapple) which had big slices of the Canadian bacon! The dough was just right for us! We also got the Grandma Margherita pizza as well. Which was pretty good as well. This is a decent place to get pizza if your in the area! read more

Horrendous experience! Had to call police on the owner. Pizza came, it was delicious NOTHING WRONG WITH PIZZA. The wings on the other hand were UNDER cooked and BLOODY. I called to let them know and the owner was far from receptive. He cussed and was pissed that I wanted a refund and I said come get his food. Pizza was delivered so he had my address so because he was so threatening over the phone I called the police. In this day and age you can't take threats lightly. I had my two young ones with me and wifey. BEWARE. read more

I ordered two pizzas 1 pepperoni and one pepperoni, pineapple and mushrooms from the restaurant and the overall taste was good, although the crust was on the lightly cooked side, which is why the probably call themselves Doughboys, I would prefer a crisper crust, we also got their Cheese bread which was good it came with marinara sauce which wasn't my favorite, but it also came with ranch which was bomb, the biggest knock on the restaurant was the price, definitely a splurge meal, overall a good experience. read more

The place was completely empty on a Saturday night at 7 pm. We ordered to go but decided to eat inside when it was empty. The staff is so friendly! We ordered half white knight and half meat lover. The white knight is amazing!! It's white sauce with chicken and mushrooms. I opted for no onions. Next time I'm in town I would order a whole white knight. We ordered a medium pizza and still had some left over. read more

I rarely eat pizza out and usually make it myself because not many pizza places understand how to make a proper dough that's not too doughy or overcooked so a good sauce sometimes. We got doughboys on a whim and it was some of the best pizza I have had. The dough was nice and soft like a pillow that it was easy to chew and you could keep eating it without it feeling like a ball of dough in your stomach. The cheese was great as well with a nice crisp. I've had it 4 times now in the last 2 months since moving here and we'll keep going back. 10/10 would recommend I got the minced garlic and it was really good. read more

Unprofessional business in Grover Beach. Place is ready to take your money and complicate your day in the process. I ordered a pizza and pasta and was charged for both. After paying I was told that they did not have the pasta I ordered. I was told that the owner would take care of it the following day because the staff there was not allowed to make these reimbursements. Close to a month later I have not received my part of money back for an item I did not receive due to the business not having the food to make pasta. I followed up with a phone call today to only be told once again that the owner was also not there. I was told that I would have to keep calling till he was there. I have left my name an number and hope to hear soon to resolve this matter. read more

It is ridiculous that a pizza place would charge $3.99 per topping and then hardly put any toppings on the pizza!!! They even skimp on vegetable toppings!!! TOTAL RIP OFF!! $35 for basically cheese and bread!! JOKE!! This isn't the first time they have done this either! read more

Excellent gluten free pizza. Ordered delivery. Everything was fantastic. I hate that I have to add a certain number of characters.

Really enjoyed the pizza. I hadn't been hear for years and it was better than I remembered.

Great pizza, was looking for a good pizza spot in an area I didn't know much about and this place came through with three good pizzas and wings were delicious as well read more

Pizza is decent. The service is why I give a low review. Mainly the young women who have zero customer service or knowledge on how to talk on the phone. It's quite embarrassing actually. It's been on serval occasions now and I'm now done going back. "Like ummmm like what's the number" or "um like I don't know but like that's what our system says". Bla bla bla every time. I feel like I'm taking to someone over seas that has no clue what they're doing and can't understand anything you say because they keep having me say it over and over again. Was convenient because they deliver but apparently they stopped delivering to my house 4 miles away because "like the system updates like a lot so like we just don't like deliver there". All good read more

If you want great pizza in the Pismo Arroyo Grande area Doughboys pizzeria is where it's at! My wife is gluten free so we got her there GF pizza and it was great! I also got a regular pizza and cheese garlic bread. I shoulda taken pics but the pizza was fantastic. We also had it delivered to our hotel. They charged 5$ for delivery and you can't give a cash tip to the driver it had to be charged on your credit card. But other than that it was good price was not bad at all! read more

Without a doubt the worst pizza I have ever had. The dough was limp and very thin. Even though I didn't order thin crust pizza that's what I think I got. The whole pizza was flavorless. Just a warning. Very little pepperoni on it and the sauce was Tasteless. This is the last time I will try a new place. Sorry doughboys pizza. Next time I will not shop price. This is how we learn. read more

The Pizza was pretty skimpy on its toppings for the price. It wasn't bad pizza but it wasn't anything to write home about either.
