It is highly unprofessional for a restaurant owner to present a menu like this. Perhaps it would be better to focus on making pizza and leave politics to the politicians. This comes across as quite disrespectful to some customers. It's unbelievable how far some people will go to push their opinions onto others. We chose to leave and dine elsewhere. Also, while waiting for our table, we noticed one customer had her dog with her. I have no problem with that, I'm a dog owner and love animals. However, every server walking by was petting the dog and then immediately going back to serve food. That was a bit concerning, as it didn't seem like they were washing their hands in between. Probably not, and that was kind of off-putting. read more

Oak & Rye - Their new menu - Pizza Near Me - Los Gatos, California

Great pizza, the perfect blend of chewy dough and thin crust that did not get too soggy in the middle which is typically the issue we have with thin chewy pizza. Fun atmosphere but they are always busy so service is pretty slow and ordering over the phone can be tough, had to wait a while to actually talk to someone. read more

Came here for a late dinner on a Thursday evening and had a short wait to get seated. It was a chilly night so it looked like they were only doing indoor dining at this point. We ordered the Brussels sprout salad, 5 Boroughs pizza, and a carafe of wine. The pizza was a good size - not huge but with the size of the salad this was good amount of food for two. At the suggestion of our waiter, after telling him what we were looking for in a wine, we ordered the barbera, and it was fantastic. The salad was refreshing with some nice flavor from all the parmesean and black pepper. The pizza was good - but really spicy for my weak tastebuds, had to drink lots of water to soothe the burn in my mouth. Menu was pretty big offering what looked like close to 15 pizzas, quite a few small plates and apps, and a separate daily specials menu. Would be a great place to come as a group so you can try a little bit of everything! Food came out quick and service was attentive. Place had a cool sort of rock n' roll speakeasy vibe. Plan to come back again - and order a pizza that doesn't require a fire extinguisher for my mouth! read more

The manager should be supervised by the owner on how to handle customer complaints. I complained because there was something like hair in my mouth, and the manager said, "Oh! That's from the brush." Then she brought a trash bin close and between the table and me and made me throw it away myself. That was it--she didn't even say sorry. read more

Best pizza in town. A can't miss spot!!! Great for groups, events, casual + a fun date night out.

The service is horrible. The receptionist, older middle aged lady, was rude and pretentious. I had reservation, which I had to put credit card down to reserve. I walked in on time and the receptionist at front desk walked away and disappeared for like 4 minutes. I was left literally standing there. Then when she got back she didn't say a word, not a "sorry for wait" "how can I help you". Instead I said does anyone work here? She took offense to that comment and said to me we don't have to serve you. Really? For a middle aged woman her customer service skills are horrible and her demeanor is even worse. The food there is just ok and service is slow based on past experience. I don't recommend this restaurant. read more

Favorite pizza - yet service is SO BAD 90% of the time. The hostess was clearly miserable today. Ordered pizza to go, came in at 5:15 for pick up. Asked to sit outside (no one in the restaurant) the hostess couldn't be more rude. We couldn't be more polite. So off putting. Pizza has always been amazing, but the service ruins it. The older red headed women really needs to transition if you are that unhappy in a customer service role. Opted to leave after the interaction. Ridiculous that she still receives a tip automatically. read more

Ordered take out. 3 pizzas, Cesar salad and a pretzel. Nearly $120. In my opinion overpriced for what you get. The pizzas are small with blackened edges that are inedible. The salad was nothing special and expensive. The pretzel was not cooked in the center. Will I go back to Oak & Rye? No read more

Oak & Rye - Caesar salad. Was hoping for dark green Romaine. Not there. - Pizza Near Me - Los Gatos, California

We visited here on a weeknight and it was pretty packed. We were craving some wood fired pizzas and the vibe and ambience of this place from the outdoors stood out as we were in the neighborhood for another event. Once we entered we put down our name in the waitlist. We waited for about 15 mins before we got our table. The chairs were a bit old and we were seated close to the wood fire so it was a bit hot. We ordered just one pizza, the Konami code as the prices were a bit steep in my opinion for the size. The waiter did tell us that he would order one more item , we thought that was unnecessary given price point and he dint seem too happy about it while taking the order (which I thighs was uncalled for) The pizza was delicious so I give them 3 stars for that for sure, however I'm not sure if i will return given mandatory service charges, $28 small pizza and tip, waiter attitude and bellies not full. I had to go home and grab a sandwich! read more

I took my mom out to this place and she rarely gets out so I was hoping this would be a good experience for her. After asking if we can get our salad before our meal we got everything at once. I've never had pizza from wood burning so doughy and bland. It was almost like eating dough. My mom had the risotto balls and they were cold and bland. The only thing that was good was the salad. So disappointed and bummed that my mom, who rarely gets out had to experience this. read more

This is such a fun and cute spot! Everyone who works here is so fun and kind, and I love that there's a decent amount of spaces to sit. There are two bathrooms, which is amazing for the space. And one of the bathrooms has a REALLY good themed setup. My only complaint is that there aren't options for some of the more generic pizzas and the pizzas themselves are overpriced a bit. We had a pepperoni loving kid in our group but none of the pizzas really fit the bill. I was surprised to see that such a popular topping wasn't available. read more

Only went here because of new amex plat credits (if you know you know). I don't know, guys. No one in our party liked the pizza. I think the crust should have been crispy instead of soft but I'm no pizza expert by any means. To me Dominos Philly Cheese Steak pizza beats any of these pizzas. Which is kind of sad given the price difference. I love Dominos Philly Cheese Steak! Again, not an expert, just my personal opinion. Maybe I'm stupid and don't understand these fancy pizzas. read more

We had a nice lunch here with our dog, Zoey, on their front patio. They are primarily a pizza place; their pizza's have unusual ingredients. The food seems to be high quality ingredients, so it is rather pricey, but not too bad. I had the gnocchi, with vegetables in a garlic sauce with a bit of pesto. It was pretty good. My husband had the margarita pizza, and it was delicious. The end of the crust is quite puffy, which the inside is very thin; it is a soft doughy crust, despite the burnt areas at the edges. The most memorable dish, though, was the roasted beets, which came with Stracciatella cheese, pine nuts, and a bit of pesto; it was excellent! I had a Diet Coke, which came in a 12 oz can. Zoey had a bowl of water and got to taste a bite or two of pizza. read more

I've been wanting to try oak & rye for a while now and sadly, I was really disappointed with the food. The pizza dough is made from a sourdough starter and the wood oven they cook it in is way too hot. The pizza on the bottom was charred but the top was still raw in some areas. Which didn't taste good at all. There were also very little toppings on it. We also ordered the chicken wings, and again, I was really disappointed. It was mainly just fried chicken with the sauce on the side. It was greasy and I didn't like the texture of the breading. I'm used to wings being coated in the sauce and then you choose dipping sauce. The service was good, everyone was friendly and we were seated quickly. The bathroom is really interesting with old VHS movies stacked in there with a little tv. That's a first for me to see in a restroom! It's a cute restaurant but I wouldn't eat there again. read more

Amazing Pizzas and great service. Cool bathrooms too. I've been a loyal customer for 10 years and haven't found a local joint to compete.

The best Italian / pizza place in the Bay Area. Everything on the menu is amazing. If you're leaving a bad review on this place it's definitely not because of the food. The service is great, always warm and welcoming. We love this place. read more

Unique is the word I'll use for this gem of a pizza restaurant. They do things different. This place is in the heart of Downtown Los Gatos. I had high hopes after reading the reviews & It didn't disappoint. Very casual dining experience with dimmed lighting to ease the eyes. Full bar with about 10 specialty drinks and a ton of wine to choose from. The starters (pretzel & broccolini) were so fresh and tasty! The pizza was fluffy, crunchy and delicious. I highly recommend using the hot oil spice they have on the table as it has kick and adds taste! Very unique. Overall, I was not expecting such a great experience and my stomach thanked me. Thanks Oak & Rye, I'll be back! read more

We were looking for a place for a late lunch in Los Gatos and spotted Oak & Rye, which had a pretty little patio space and great looking pizzas. SO glad that we did - we got a table in the upper level of the patio - super private since we were the only ones on this level - and service was attentive and excellent! We ordered the fried potatoes and oyster mushrooms for appetizers. For pizzas, we had the truffle shuffle, the Jack Burton and the margherita - for the four of us. We ended up having about a half pizza leftover and they were all fantastic! Wood fired pizza oven, really great and fresh flavors. Also ordered some black coffee since I didn't have coffee and it was actually good. Sometimes brewed coffee is not the best idea to try at a non-coffee place but this was good. Oh yes and make sure you stop at the bathrooms because they have the craziest one-room bathroom that has a TV set up with a VCR and a huge stack of videos to choose from! I had to take a picture. I'd come back here again - overall, really great lunch spot, good and quick service. read more

This place still adds mandatory tip, which is illegal in California? As of July 1 2024, Senate Bill 478 California law prohibits restaurants from charging hidden charges also called "junk" fees. As part of the bill's legislation, prices for goods and services must include all fees the consumer is required to pay. "For example, if a Rosso pizza is $19 and a restaurant charges a 18% service charge, the pizza would have to be listed as $22.42 in the menu". That's the law, not an option. As you can see in the attached, the menu still show $19, not $22,42. Read more at: https://www.sacbee.com/news/california/article288492591.html Even after I took the time to explain the new law to the manager, he didn't seem to care. The answer was "we automatically charge 18%" on all takeouts. Period! Quality of food has drastically decline over the years as well. read more

I came as a party of 2 kind of close to closing on a Friday (oops) and the staff graciously welcomed us. HIGHLY recommend the gnocchi, as our waitress recommended! We thought it was a rather small portion at first, but the dish ended up being really rich and good for sharing between two people. It was garlicky, pesto-y, and had bits of squash and some sort of greens, and it all came together nicely. We also got the Konami Code pizza which was solid, but the gnocchi definitely won here. For a side, we got the broccolini which was so nicely cooked, super flavorful and amazing with the citrus. We also enjoyed the Return of the Martian cocktail. The restaurant is great for a date night in downtown Los Gatos. There's album art all over the walls which would be great talking points. read more

Love the pizza, salads, roasted potatoes, wings and kale. We tend to have the same order and have been trying to mix it up a bit. The pizzas are amongst the best in the Bay Area; lively sourdough crust, just the right amount of toppings and interesting combinations. Service is usually quite good. Something's could be better though: - Brussels salad can be overly tart at times - desserts were awful - chocolate pudding had some goopy creamy mess and peanuts on top which simply detracted from the taste - strawberry pannacotta was so overly sweet, it was inedible I've also ordered pasta to go and the portions are stingy. They tend to also add gratuity to a to go order which is annoying. read more

Great host/manager. Pretty good food (ordered sliced brussel sprouts, chicken wings, gnocchi + sausage, goomba, margarita). Service lacked. We told the server no chilis for the gnocchi because it was for the kids but we still end up finding some chilis; therefore, the kids were spiced out gulping water. We ran out of water and had flagged our server for water. After some more time, still no water in sight despite kids drinking up all the water at the table. We ordered a margarita since they couldn't eat the gnocchi or the goomba. At this point, my daughter was scrapping the last drop of water from her cup. Given that we sat close to the bar, we brought our emptied bottle to the bar and got another. True, we should have had more patience with the server and asked again, but at this point, the server rolled her eyes at us. It was obvious that she started to talk to the bartender about us with their backs to us. We were THAT close to the bar. While still waiting for our margarita, she slaps the check onto our table "Here's your check after the margarita." She didn't bring over our margarita pizza at all. The manager/host did after checking on us. Been here, tried it, probably won't be back here given the service we received. Thanks! read more

The place is vintage and feels very family friendly. We went at the end of the night so the service was really fast and the people were really nice. The Gnocchi sauce was amazing and the pasta overall was delicious. I am definitely coming back. read more

I know this is a popular place, but I don't get it. The Arancini had zero flavor and two of our pizzas were slightly over cooked and the dough on the truffle shuffle had a completely different dough consistency from the other two. I felt that it was extremely overpriced for what we got. That said, I thought their Brussels salad was amazing and their drinks were decent (although they could have used a bit more liquor). And our server was nice and did a good job. read more

The food, the cocktails and the service here are all top-notch. A New York vibe (Roberta's!) smack in the middle of Los Gatos. I usually start off with the chicken liver mousse or their soft pretzel. If you love pizza, check out the Scottie 2 Hottie or the 5 Boroughs. I think if I lived in LG, I'd be going here weekly. read more

We felt completely discriminated against by the host. My friend and I went there on a Friday night and were told the wait time was 1.5 hours. We were tired, so we decided to order takeout instead. While waiting, we noticed that many other guests were also being told the same wait time. Then a couple walked in. At that moment, a large table--big enough for about 10 people--was being cleaned. Despite telling everyone else there was a long wait, the host offered this couple the large table. They accepted and were seated right away. Out of curiosity, I approached the couple and asked how long they had waited. The man said they had just walked in. I then went back to the host and asked if we could sit at the same large table, since it clearly had room for more. She refused. When I pointed out that the couple had just arrived, she insisted--looking me straight in the eye--that they had been waiting. It was an outright lie. Why treat people this way? I have never experienced anything like this before. Please be honest. Please be ethical. read more

Finding quality pizza spots is a rare treat - this one is added on the list. Every time we visit family we try to get pizza from Oak & Rye because it's pizza that we don't ever really get to have anywhere else! From the flavor and variety it's top notch. Our favorites are the Scottie 2 hottie and the Coach Goni! But honestly every pizza I have tried has been great. The service is helpful! Even though they can get crazy busy we had good experiences. We usually have gotten just take out and the pizza is still good! Inside the restaurant is really cool- has its own style for sure. This is a tasty place with very good pizza. read more

We were going to book a reservation because my husband teaches and the kids got him a gift card. This was the first time coming here. online everything looked open for reservations for 530, So we decided to just walk in. We arrived @ 530pm, the place was empty, literally, maybe like 8-10 ppl. The red head lady at the front says "sorry we are booked, if i sit you down right now you only have 30minutes to eat and then you have to leave'. What?! So your going to throw me out after 30min? It's empty! She said sorry we are booked and people will start to arrive in 30min. What?, like how many because it empty. She said yah sorry. I will never eat here! Don't waste your money on this place! We walked up to Ándale and they were super nice and welcoming! I've never been to a restaurant where no matter how busy they are, they have you sign in and ask you to wait 30-45, which im okay with but for her to throw us basically out? Terrible customer service! read more

Made an RSVP for a Saturday night for an indoor table. Took just a few minutes to get seated. For starters the three of us shared the arugula salad which we enjoyed. Of the two pizzas we ordered we preferred the Konami Code over the Jack Burton. As a Baby Boomer I appreciated the album cover decor. Beers on tap were good . TIP : by chance we sat at table # 9 which is right in front of the pizza. It was fun watching the pizza making and baking action . read more

Came here in a Monday night and got seated right away. All the indoor tables were unavailable so our party of four got seated outside but we didnt mind, esp with the plenty of space heaters. Service was good. It was a little slow but it was a packed house on a Monday night The wait staff are kind and get the job done. We got three pizzas and one serving of the oyster mushrooms to share. The truffle shuffle is nice but some at my table werent a fan of the addition of cornichons. I personally like how it balanced the heavier truffle flavor. The Scotty 2 hottie was good but was a touch sweeter than I'd like it to be. The goomba I thought was also just ok. It didn't stand out to me as much. The oyster mushrooms were amazing though. Very flavorful and meaty. The dough they use for the crust is also so good. There's such a nice chew to it. read more

heard great things about the pizza here so I had to try! Pizza is my favorite so I had high hopes. We started off the meal a tad disappointed. I ordered brussel sprouts and it was so tangy with all the lemon juice on it. it was to a point I couldn't really swallow it. I our server and the server just took it away. It would've been great if our server offered something different or comped the dish but he didn't say a word. Our server also neglected to bring us water when we were out several times. We asked another server for some more water. Also! If you're here in the summer and it's hot, do yourself a favor and sit OUTSIDE! It was extremely hot and stuffy inside due to the pizza oven. We sat upstairs which was the closest to it and unfortunately could not change spots.. We also ordered a truffle shuffle pizza which was amazing if you like mushrooms as well as the lady and the tramp. Both pizzas were incredible! Lots of flavors, and the dough was so chewy. I could definitely tell that they make their dough in the store. Lastly we got a pasta with oyster mushrooms. To our surprise it was also super sour! Not sure if they like their food with a lot of lemon juice but it just wasn't to our liking. Overall the pizza was great and I think our experience would be better if we had a server who was more attentive and understanding. read more

I eat pizza probably 2-3X per month, I also make my own. It's a rare occasion where the pizza rivals a meal at a fine restaurant, but occasionally they do, and I call this a pizzagasm experience. My daughter is a foodie and took us to Oak and Rye while visiting from out of town. We had a 45 minute wait, but spent the wait having a glass of beer down the block. When it came time to eat, we sat at a nice long high table. The vibe is unpretentious california chill. Our server was very pleasant, smiley and friendly. Whenever I have a pizza the first time at a joint, I always order a basic pepperoni so to judge its quality without some over powering ingredient dominating the taste. So I ordered the 5 Burroughs in that vain. Our pizzas came out quickly and piping hot. The crust had just the right amount of char. Upon the first bite I was in heaven. The crust was perfectly chewy, the sauce had the right tang, the cheese was melted perfectly and the meat was very flavorful. There was no sogginess to any slice. Our server confirmed that the crust was sourdough based and it had just the ring amount of zing to complement the other flavors. I was so impressed by this pizza. My daughter and her boyfriend had the pizza with pepperoni and some basil and honey (Sticky Stan?) added and it was fantastic as well. Over the past 5 years I've had many pizzas. Only 3 experiences reached pizzagasm status (one in Bellingham, WA, one in Brooklyn, NY and one in Rome, Italy) and I'm super happy to say that Oak and Rye made it number 4. I highly recommend this pizza and I can't wait to come back! read more

Good pie, but kinda soft. I prefer a more crisp to the crust. The burn and look of their pie is A+ although the crisp is lacking. I would say their pie flavor is about an eight point four, but if they could bring more crisp, the flavors would land in the nines. Good beers, but a lot were tapped out or they were out. Overall definitly worth the higher end price for a pie, and cool shirts to buy. read more

It took a half hour to receive a second glass of wine; then we were booted out of our table (...wine unfinished...) because we apparently reached a previously-unmentioned two-hour table time limit. Also, $190 for 3 pizzas and 4 glasses of wine is gouging. We won't be back for a while, if ever. read more

Great pizza spot in downtown Los Gatos! Came here on a Thursday night for a table of two. After about 5 minutes of waiting we got the text saying our table was ready and got seated. What was ordered: - Brussel sprout salad: really refreshing and had a nice citrus hint. Would defiantly get this again. - 5 boroughs pizza:includes a bunch of different cheeses and has a slight kick due to the pepperoni. I really liked it and would defiantly order it again - we also shared some wine that I unfortunately can't remember but it was a great deal of 2 big glasses for $16 Overall, we had a good experience and the food was tasty. Customer service was good and I will defiantly be back! read more

Decided to make another stop to eat here since it's been a while! They currently do ask for proof of vaccination and identification to seat indoors. For those that prefer to eat outdoors, there are plenty of tables with heat lamps and umbrellas. To start off our meal, we ordered the pretzel and it was clearly nice and fresh because it was almost too hot to eat with our hands. The mustard and beer cheese sauce that came with it were amazing! The pretzel wasn't too big which I appreciated considering the fact that we were about to eat some pizza. For our pizzas, we ordered Scotty 2 Hottie and Konami Code. Both were super fresh and delicious. Both (in my opinion) had a little bit of a spicy kick to them. I don't mind the heat though! Our server was very attentive and made sure to update us on our order. The kitchen was running a little slow due to to-go orders, but we really appreciated the updates from our server. Regardless, everything was super hot and fresh when it came to our table! read more
