Must be hard to compete for pizza place market share in a tiny town like Carpinteria but it's…read moreclear Dan's strategy is service. Pizza, salad and soda all great but Friday night's late Fall service deserves honorable mention and recognition. Firstly, my order was taken with accuracy and attention. Was already willing to throw a couple bucks tip but no digital option for that. Young man at the counter let me know he greatly appreciated the sentiment none the less. Impressive. After experiencing an epic journey across their vast landscape of salad bar spread, I was posted up at one of their 2 touch screen soda taps when I heard my name called letting me know my pizza was ready. I was still at the soda tap vacillating between another 6 ounces of Vanilla Cream or maybe Orange when the same young man working the register came all the way over to make sure I had heard my pizza was ready. That's when I started to realize I definitely made the right choice coming to Pizza Man Dan's tonight. As with any great story we experienced a great ending after my niece's greasy fingers and waxed cup turned into ice on the floor. When alerted, the same guy from behind the counter lept into action addressing the cleanliness and safety issues we had created and was very gracious about the whole thing. Top notch Dan! Well done cultivating a service culture that promotes in house family dining. I'll remember to bring cash for the jar next time

There was also the fish tacos , which I didn't try due to my allergy. The artichoke was different. The portions are enough to share. The waiter was attentive as well as the other staffers. Enjoyed lunch here on a lovely Saturday in which we sat outside on the patio. Washed everything down with the berry acai hard seltzer which was tasty and a refreshing (not a big beer drinker). Unfortunately, everything was so good there was no room for dessert.

I highly recommend the ginger soup for anyone that is sick or needs warmth. Sliced chicken, mushroom, baby boy choy, carrots, and jullienne slivers of ginger. So good! A small bowl is pretty large, at least to me. I ordered the Mei Mei Tofu dish which comes with white rice. I took a scoop of that white rice to put in my soup, too. The heat holds well in the Tofu, which was still hot after my soup. I didnt need to add anything to it. No salt, no soy sauce, no white pepper...it tasted delicious. I enjoyed my meal. I will return!

Jennifer was our server on a holiday weekend and she catered to the local crowd and tourists alike as if each of us were her only table. She apologized for the wait but there was no need because we had a great experience. I can't believe we had not visited the Nugget until now because we love the quiet beach across the road. After our beach walk we were looking for some drinks and an early meal to keep the beautiful day going. We ordered the full rack of ribs and tri tip French dip to accompany hubby's cold beers and my tall pomegranate spritz. Both meals were so flavorful and the ribs were so tender they fell off the ribs. My tri tip with au jus was also well seasoned and prepared. For our sides, we had salads which were equally fresh & well dressed and hubby enjoyed the crispy and cheat-worthy onion rings. I definitely understand why the Nugget is a favorite local spot and a great stop-over along Hwy 101 between Ventura and Santa Barbara.

Was supposed to have cheese on top and no kidding, had a few strands of very fine shredded cheese, that's it. 2.) fish tacos looked good but completely fell apart in the soft corn tortilla they were in, they fell onto the table and the entire thing fell apart into small pieces. Tortilla didn't hold up to any of it. 3.) sweet potato fries were good but $6.00 was a bit much for the small portion of fries. Just overall not impressed this time. Last time we had burgers and I think that may be the way to go here, I recommend those but what we had today wasn't worth coming back to in my opinion.
