The pizza is delicious! - I love a New York style and this crust was lovely, a tad thicker than other NY styles while still being thin crust, I really enjoyed it! They are very generous with their toppings! Highly recommend the works, so good! - Had listed inside a indoor lunch special 2 slices + drink for $7, sign me up! * - Only reason 4 vs 5 star is their online order from home system seems to be a bit faulty, we got there at our promoted arrival time to be met with that they hadn't started it yet and would need about 25 more minutes, ended up being about 30/35 minutes (If it were just me and my husband no big deal, but with a hangry toddler waiting at Grams house this was a bit of a surprise) The gentleman working said something along the lines of they only receive online orders submitted every 30mins which seems a little wild * Absolutely do recommend, and will for sure be back; but be weary of the online order - will be calling in for pick up from now on

The sauce the only thing good about the pizza. This is not worth the price point. There's plenty of better options for same price (56.00)

Decided to try this place on the recommendation of a colleague. Called at 10:58am and happy they answered the phone before their stated opening time of 11:00am. I ordered two 18" pizzas which totaled $56.83. I was told the pizza would be ready for pick up at 11:30am. The person sent to pick up the pizza sent me a photo she took waiting in the lobby at 11:57am. I called the restaurant and asked for the status of my order. I was told it was picked up. I told the man I had someone who said they were still there and reminded him that I was quoted 11:30 and it was almost 12pm. The man on the phone became defensive and said that it "was a busy day" and they were "making pizzas.' He added "The food left, it looks good" and said he "didn't know what else he could do." He offered no apology and said "All I can do is try to do better next time." Good service is equally important as good food. This was not the right attitude to have when addressing a customer concern. 30 minutes late with no apology or offer to somehow make it right on a future visit? There are PLENTY of other Pizza Places in Oceanside we will choose from. Update: the food was awful. The pizza sauce itself was good but the Crust was extremely dense and dry very hard to chew through. the cheese pizza was very Similar to Costco pizza (which also a lower quality)

There is nothing better than being pleasantly surprised by a restaurant. We literally stopped by here while killing time and it was a great visit. It's in a very unassuming strip mall location. We ordered a slice of pepperoni and a slice of their Grandma's Sicilian style pizza with ricotta, tomato, basil and a little balsamic. Both were delicious. The crust was solid on both and the grandma style was kinda like eating a bruschetta on a deep dish crust. I was worried about the balsamic because I don't like sweet flavors on food that's supposed to be savory but it was very subtle...the perfect amount. We aren't typically in the area of this establishment but I'm already planning an excuse to go back there. Yum! read more

Drove by area and stopped in for quick bite. Found this pizzeria. Loved the crust and crispness. Had a pepperoni and a pineapple by the slice. That crispy goodness had me pressuring my bf to go back inside to get that second slice as we had ate in the car. Note to self: pepperoni pizza again! Minimal ingredients for a light pizza that stays crispy and simple. Just drove off but will be missing that dough, until next time! Btw...overheard the son of the owner chatting about how he wished for less packaging but his mom would kill him. Loved that. It's important to be eco friendly and it also so important that the owner maintains a strong sense of how the customers experience is. read more

I've ordered from this place twice now. The pizzas were fine. The first time, I came into the shop and ordered takeout. The second time was through a third-party service. Both times, the service was very slow. Even the third party delivery person texted me, letting me know they were VERY slow and expect to wait. Again, the pizzas were fine and tasted okay. But it's not that special to wait 90 minutes or more for a simple pepperoni pizza. read more

Delicious pizza, great prices, and friendly service. My family orders here once a week (usually for pizza Fridays) and it never disappoints. Our go-to is pepperoni and green bell peppers, and a side of French fries. The fries have that extra crisp on them that is super tasty. Make sure you call ahead if you're doing to-go as it usually takes about 30 minutes. There's a grocery store next door you could pop over to if you need to kill time while you wait. I usually have my toddler with me / and am pregnant and they always offer to help me carry the food out to my car if needed. Couldn't recommend this place enough! read more

We came today because I saw a mention of it on FB. Great value! We had the calzone and it was delicious! The owners were lovely people, very friendly. It's not a 5 star because the mushrooms were canned, the beer could have been colder, and the calzone needed a few more minutes in the oven to melt the cheese and brown it a bit more. Aside from that... we will be back to try the 10 layer lasagna & the chicken parmesan sandwich. read more

On of the better pizzas in North County! Unbelievably good crust with a little leopard spotting-yum! Cheese was delicious and seems to be high quality! Only knock, and it's kind of a big one, I taste no tomato flavor. I taste Italian spices (oregano etc), and a hint of maybe crushed red pepper. For my east coast Italian blood, I prefer the tomato passata to be one of the holy trinity of pizza ingredients l: great crispy crust- check, delicious quality cheese-check, tomato's- meh, a red pizza is preferably just unspiced tomato purée w a little salt pepper. That's how we do it on the east coast. read more

Well unfortunately I can't review the food from actual experience but I can review the service. Ordered a pie for the family at 6:05 pm and was told it would be done in 35 mins. Showed up 35 mins later and order was not ready and not even taken. I called the number that I had called, in case I had a pizza waiting somewhere else, and the place where I was standing answered. Major bummer. Oh well, these things do happen but definitely not good for business. Considered buying by the slice but that looked pretty stale. Pizza night turned to hamburger night. read more

Because it's a more casual setup, you order at the counter, pick up your own drinks, and then a server brings the sandwich to your table using the number they give you. Since we were sitting outside, it didn't really feel like traditional table service and no one came out to check in, but the system worked for the type of place it is.

Dog melt was surprisingly good. Onion rings and fries were on point. Ranch was a little too funny for me. And to be able to top off the meal with Thrifty's ice cream?! We'll be back.

This is a long overdue review for Water Shack. I stumbled upon this place a few years ago when I…read morewas craving a no frills mom & pop style burger. To my surprise Water Shack's burgers were delicious and satisfying that I find myself coming back here ever so often. Their burgers aren't the heavy, greasy/high fat patties you would get from other places. However, their 1/4 lb patties are their smallest patties and heft makes for that ideal bun to burger ratio. Did I need to order double patties on most of my burger orders? Probably not. Their patties are on the leaner side but they aren't dry; and the fixings from any burger you choose will satisfy that meaty burger fix you're looking for. The Chicken Patty Melt is also a very tasty item. Very cheesy, buttery and crispy toasted bread with chicken breast. Their fries and onion rings also come air-fried so this place focuses more on the healthier comfort food options that wont leave you feeling heavy and drowsy. This place is also doubled as a purified water dispensary and also serves baked goods and ice cream. Love this type of no-frills, unassuming place with very friendly staff and serves up some delicious food!

It was in the morning so egg sounded good and luckily, they had a crossaint breakfast sandwich!

We walked our dog and he got a piece of bacon, compliments by the cashier. We enjoyed the sandwich in their outdoor dining area with cars in the background.

I have been to Flying Pig before about 8 years ago on the East coast during a work trip, and was so…read morestoked to see it in Oceanside. I recall it being a delicious and a wonderful dining experience. I have been looking forward to bringing my family and friends here all week. I am giving this restaurant 3 stars, because their food is still AMAZING and their staff is super nice and I believe deep down inside that they just had a REALLY OFF night. We had reservations for a party of 9 last night. The table was set up nicely and accommodated a few extra if needed, which I thought was cool. We started with some adult beverages: an Old Fashion, some Hotel Nacionals, a Fashionably Late, and a couple of beers. Everything started great. Dennis, our server was very cool and friendly and gave great suggestions. We ordered the mac and cheese sides and they were delicious with huge pieces of savory bacon in them. We also ordered the brussel sprouts which we never received and didn't even realize it until the very end when we received the bill because of all the other issues we had... but we'll get to that in a moment. But let's talk about what did go well... the delicious food we did get. We ordered the Pig burger which was sooo good and came with crispy fries. The fish for the fish and chips were 2 huge pieces and were delicious, came with yummy seasoned waffle fries and the tiniest tartar sauce and malt vinegar. I had to request 4 more for that amount of fish, but no big deal. Dennis brought out as much as we needed. Their ranch sauce is really good too. Don't judge just because it's a little peachy'ish and looks thousand island'ish. lt's still some very good ranch. My son said he really tasted the bitterness of beer in the fish batter but maybe it was just in that piece he had; I could not taste it in the piece of fish I ate. The short rib was really tender and delicious... the sauce was just a tad salty for my taste, but the mashed potatoes it sat on sort of balanced it out a little. The fried chicken thighs were really cooked well, juicy, crispy and seasoned perfectly. We ordered two Teres Major steaks. One rare with mashed potaoes, one medium rare with grits. The rare one came out medium and without any mushrooms, took FOREVEEERR to remake (the rest of the table was almost done with our meals...& not sure why it took so long since the restaurant wasn't that busy and it's a RARE steak). The one with grits came with mashed potatoes instead of grits. Dennis was super nice and apologetic and corrected both mistakes when we let him know. He then brought us a big bowl of grits. The manager (blonde gal) came over and apologized for the mistakes tonight, letting us know that usually does not happen, and let us know she'd be comping one of our steaks and would be bringing a dessert on them. We thought that was very nice of them. However, as nice a gesture. we never did receive that dessert. My husband handed Dennis his credit card before the bill arrived (before our friends could try to pay the bill) and not sure why but our bill never came, and we never saw Dennis again either after he boxed up our leftovers and took the card. We had to ask another server for our bill because we had been waiting for quite a while... and needed to head out as we were already late to meet friends at a lounge. The other server came back with my husband's credit card, the bill (that's when I finally noticed the brussel sprouts sides we never got but were charged), and let the server know. He immediately apologized and took it off the bill. So I'm not sure what happened last night at Flying Pig...missing and charged brussel sprouts, steak overcooked, missing mushrooms, mashed potatoes instead of grits, then a comped dessert promised but never delivered. WOW. I had to apologize to my friends. I was totally hyping up this place and it underdelivered. They automatically got their 20% gratuity for our party of 9 but anyone that knows me knows how much I absolutely love great service combined with exceptional food and that could have easily been a 30-35% tip had they been on their A game! We only come to Oceanside once a year. Maybe we will try again next year. Maybe not. This trip was about trying out a bunch of different restaurants and giving honest reviews on dishes/businesses we haven't tried before, or in a long time. Do better guys.

It was also a pretty hot day yesterday, but the entire patio is shaded and nestled against the building, so it creates a pocket of cool air. My only issue with my experience is that I had to wait about twice as long as anyone else in my party to get my meal. BUT, they were pretty slammed and maybe they had to make more fries or grilled veggies or something. I'm not complaining, just pointing out that a little extra wait is still worth it!!

Yes, less than the lobsters, but I have dinner for tonight, which makes me happy. Aaron was attentive and I really will be going back - it's about 10 miles west of me.

My family and I are absolutely obsessed with Graziano's, and I will happily shout it. Is it a little pricier than other pizza spots in the area? Yes. Is it worth every single penny? Also yes. The quality is just outstanding, and every person who works there is so friendly and warm, you can tell they genuinely love what they do. They do close earlier than other pizza places.. Our family's go-to is the Godfather pizza, and we always add sausage because honestly, we like meat on our 'za. Pro tip: call ahead and your order will be ready in about 30 minutes, which is just so convenient and will prevent a long wait... One more thing, please, please do not skip the cookies. I cannot stress this enough. The ambiance inside is more casual than anything, but who cares when the pizza is this good? Graziano's is our spot, and if you haven't tried it, you are truly missing out. read more

I looked at the add and I looked good, so we went down for a couple Calzones. Ours looked nothing like the ones pictured, the add was missing the cup of grease our food was soaking in. My wife ruined her shirt carrying the box, the grease was dripping out of the corners and soaking thru the cardboard. When opened the box revealed three Calzones sitting in a big nasty puddle of oil. The bottom of the crust was soggy wet with it and the paper in the bottom of the box had a puddle...everywhere. I'll add a photo to back up my words. I come from a LONG line of pizza eaters. Had pizza in 13 different countries. THIS was by far the worst pizza I've ever thrown away for 27$ You should be ashamed. I Had to give a 1 or you'd have gotten a zero read more

My husband and I just stopped in looking for lasagna and wow they exceeded our expectations! The food was served hot, the sauce was so flavorful and the cheese was delicious! Portion size was big enough for us to split, but I could have eaten the whole thing! We ordered a cannoli for dessert and it was just as delicious! Talked to the owner, everything is homemade in house! So glad they are close by! We will definitely be back! read more
