Best Pizza I've Ever Had!…read more Service was quick and employees were friendly! This spot is a bit on the pricer side (it's Laguna Beach after all) but they have great selection of specialty pizzas! I decided to customize my own. There's limited seating inside and i waited at least 10 minutes for my pizza to be served. I can't describe how delicious it was! I recommend you coming and giving this place a try!!

Tried this place for the first time and really enjoyed it! I had the chicken meatball pizza, which…read morecomes with red sauce, shredded cheese, meatballs, garlic, and pickles. I ordered it without the pickles, and it was absolutely delicious. I also got a plain cheese pizza for my three little ones (ages 8, 6, and 2), and it was more than enough for them to share. Parking in the area can be a bit busy on weekends...I was there on a Sunday, so unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to go in and instead found a 20 minute metered spot. Luckily, my pizzas were ready in about 10 minutes. In fact, by the time I walked in, the guy was already packing them up. The pizzas are a great size for sharing. My husband and I shared the chicken meatball one and still had a couple of slices left. Same for the kids with the cheese pizza...they had some leftovers too. Customer service was spectacular. I wish I had caught the name of the guy who helped me since he was super friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be coming back!

I would only go here again if there wasn't any other Italian restaurants available in the area and…read moreI wanted pasta/ pizza. We ordered a variety of pastas and pizzas. The first pasta we ordered was cheese ravioli with pink sauce (the pink sauce isn't on their menu). The ravioli tasted like it was straight out of the freezer and the pink sauce didn't have any flavor including salt. There was no salt to be found in that dish or any other dish we ordered. The Alfredo pasta (pictured) was the best thing we ordered but it was still bland + tasted like something I could make at home. I would give the pizzas a 5/10 they were just normal + didn't seem like they had the best ingredients given we were all a little sick after we left. Parking was nice as they have dedicated parking spots right in front of the restaurant and there were a ton available. We went around 5-6 pm on a Saturday after a beach day and it wasn't all that busy.

I took my family to Truly Pizza on Del Prado Ave in Dana Point for the first time and really…read moreenjoyed our experience. The ambiance at Truly Pizza was great and the staff was super friendly. The open-air patio made us feel like we were in Europe. I'd heard reservations were needed, but we went without one and only waited five minutes to be seated. Our food was excellent and the staff was very accommodating with my two year old grandson. We also learned a bit of food history: although Caesar salad is often thought of as Italian, it was actually created in Tijuana, Mexico, in 1924 by Italian immigrant restaurateur Caesar Cardini. We ordered the pizza, choosing from three different crusts. I especially liked the square and sesame crusts. Our favorites were the sweet-and-spicy pizza and the Mike's Honey pizza, both had great flavor combinations. Dessert was a bit more hit-or-miss for me. I could have passed on the ice cream with olive oil. Something about the combination didn't quite work for me; it reminded me of eating a salad with ice cream. Overall, Truly Pizza was a fantastic experience, with a beautiful atmosphere, welcoming service, and excellent pizza. I'd definitely come back for the pizza and patio alone.

I was so excited to try this place. It's hard to get a reservation, but my friends and I walked in…read moreas soon as it opened and we were able to get a table. The place is cute and open to air so there was a nice breeze in the summer heat. The food was not bad, but it greatly disappointed me and is overhyped. The pizza crust is too hard and the flavors aren't amazing. Unfortunately, it was not really anything special to me. I loved the salad though, that was definitely the star of the show. We also got floats, which was fun. Otherwise, I wouldn't choose to come here, but I wouldn't be opposed if my friends or family wanted to come.

We ordered the special tacos of the day, the arugula salad, and the hot honey pizza... and everything was absolutely on point. The flavors, the freshness, the consistency just incredible, as always. This spot has become our go-to every time we're down in South County OC. It never misses. My girlfriend and I both had the hazy (highly recommend), and I went for a flight to sample a few more perfect way to kick off the weekend. Amazing food, great atmosphere, and even better service. Big thank you to Laguna Beach Brewery and a special shoutout to Jules and Bobby for making the experience next level. Definitely a must if you're in Laguna Beach. - Ian Lantz

I wanted to blend in with the human race by eating half and taking the other half home. But that fucking $6 lager made heaven more heavenly. I ate and ate....there's an audience watching me now....and I ate. I sat with my back against the wall watching the poor souls go by -- those who don't have this pizza and lager in front of them at the moment. I said a silent prayer for them....then I ate. The service is top notch and the ambience says beach life in a quiet way. I want to thank my parents for not aborting me, so that I got to enjoy this. I can't wait to come back!

The vegan pizza here was delicious! Officially one of the best I've had! Hubby and I split a pizza…read morebut we had 2 different pizzas in one (half and half). I got a vegan margarita and he had a veggie pizza. The girls shared a small cheese pizza and I probably should have ordered them a smaller size pizza because we had plenty of leftovers. I loved my margarita pizza and he said his pizza was good too. My girls enjoyed their pizza as well. I loved that the pizza was hot and the cheese was melted perfectly on my pizza, hubby's cheese on his pizza half wasn't fully melted but it was still good. The girls ordered a lemonade and hubby and I had a beer. The only downside was that it was SO hot inside and while there is outdoor seating, it's not child safe (all barstools). They really need to keep the doors open to allow the ocean breeze. One other note, the booth by the bathroom--- you could smell the bathroom from the booth. Yuck! Other than that, service was friendly and the vegan pizza was SOO good!

The meatballs are amazing, you better have a good appetite if you order one. Always a great selection of beers. The ambiance is coastal surfer. I wish they sold their shirts and hoodies because that's some mad street credit. The service is always quick, never had a cold meal. If anything, you have to wait a minute to sink your teeth into the pizza. Fresh out of the oven every time. Super chill and friendly staff. There are 3 Gina's in the OC. I recommend CDM and Laguna. Doesn't matter which one you go to, always great quality.

So, we received flyers at our apartment complex, and many of the residents were excited about this, and I saw a few here today. The majority seem really happy with the pizza as well! I'm under the impression that this is mainly a takeout location. Probably because there are no picnic tables or seating available inside or outside.

The service was great, and the food came out pretty quickly. I ordered a large pepperoni pizza, and it was really good. The bottom wasn't super crispy, which I honestly didn't mind, and overall, I couldn't ask for much more from a classic pepperoni pizza. I also got their bone in chicken wings in two flavors, Frank's RedHot Buffalo and Honey BBQ, and they were phenomenal. When I got to the restaurant, those wings were so hot you can see the steam when you open the box. The wings weren't really crispy, but they were packed with flavor, so I didn't even care. The Buffalo had that classic tangy heat, while the Honey BBQ was sweet and flavorful. Pizza Guys definitely satisfied the late night munchies

As for the food, they have a huge choice of Italian stuff from the usual to the exotic, & all of it is very good, except I made the error of choosing a carpaccio of octopus + salmon. The slices were few & far between & so thin, they were tasteless, but everything else was excellent from the pizza to the cioppino to the meatballs & calamari, etc. Nice wine selection especially the Italian Vinos. Portion size is large & enough for at least 2 meals, except of course if you have 2 growing 20-year-old boys/men who would eat the plates if they were soft enough. All in all, Mother's day brunch was enjoyable. One addition is they are more expensive than Yelp would leave you to expect.

Everyone was so welcoming, attentive, and genuinely made us feel like family. Here's what we ordered: Calamari Half Margarita and Half Favorites Pizza Their famous homemade ravioli with meat Sausage and chicken Capri with their signature pink sauce Everything was delicious, but the standout for me was definitely the pink sauce. It was so good that my friends (who live far away) asked if they could take some home and the staff happily packed up a cup of just the sauce! They also start you off with warm, fresh bread served with garlic and olive oil. It was super garlicky in the best way. The pizza had an amazing crust with fresh toppings, and you could really taste that the ravioli was homemade. To end the meal, they bring out complimentary mini cookies. They were the perfect sweet bite... I just wish they were bigger! I'm so happy I finally got to try Mama D's, and I already can't wait to come back. It's also the perfect spot to grab lunch or dinner after spending the day at the beach since it's just a 12 min walk from Inspiration Point. Definitely worth the visit!
