    Rossi with vegan cheese
    Stephanie L.

    Let my start by saying that this location is new, therefore the service was a little slow which is expected when a restaurant is trying to find its groove! The Rossi with vegan cheese was great! The sauce was flavorful and the dough perfectly cooked. The Salad Days was just okay, perhaps just my personal preference because it was 90% arugula with a few pieces of mixed greens. The dressing that came with it was very good though! Staff was very friendly and apologetic for the delay. Definitely will return to the Pacific Beach Pizza Cassette in the near future!

    So excited to try this new place in PB! Great location too. We walked in and immediately loved the vibe. Cool artwork, nice dining sets, everything looked great. We ordered the cheese plate and The Elvis Pizza. Our server was great and attentive! Very helpful and definitely kept attention on all his tables. Let's start with the cheese plate. PHENOMENAL. We had an ale soaked cheddar that I would like to swim in a vat of it if I could. Perhaps the best cheese I've ever had. There was also gouda, some salama and truffle salami, break, a mustard, and a jam. The jam was so good it was gone almost immediately. The pizza was a little disappointing. So on it we got parm, arugula, and prosciutto. The arugula wasn't seasoned, just thrown on there, and there was just too much of it. It overtook the pizza. The sauce was also so bland, we were xo disappointed. However the couple next to us ranted and raved about their pizza, so we are holding out pizza judgement until we try some more. So I very well could be updating this review soon. Overall such a vibe! on the expensive side but wonderful dishes!

    I love the pizza cassette location at the Garten and was so psyched to see they were adding a new brick and mortar spot in my neighborhood in pb! The food is just as amazing - with new menu items! The arancini is a must get. Our service was top notch and everyone was so friendly and welcoming - they even brought us side ranch for our pizza. Definitely a staple spot in pb.

    H to the Ezzo

    Located where Hoboken Pizza and Rizers Pizza used to be, and I've honestly never seen this place this busy, so that says something right away. We started with the Fearless Flyer Salad it was fresh, well-balanced. I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked it, since I am a picky salad eater. For pizza, we got the H to the Ezzo has a really good meaty flavor and everything worked well together without feeling overdone. Their pizzas come in one size only, no small/medium/large. They also have a nice selection of beers, wine, and mocktails. This interior got a major upgrade from how it used to be. Only downside is parking it's rough, so expect to circle or walk a bit. Overall, great food, busy for a reason, and definitely a spot I'd come back to.

    First of all, we love (the OG) Pizza Cassette so much at The Garten; it is probably my favorite pizza out of all the choices in SD, no joke. So this expansion of a second location in PB is massively exciting for them. And the fact that I was able to attend their soft opening friends & family night was super special- thank you Jimmy!! This is the same great food but a completely different spin where the Pizza Cassette personality finally got to shine. Love the paint choices, the interior design, the wall art. Everything is so chic and inviting. Unlike the very casual and communal seating aspect of The Garten, this is a sit down dining experience and reservations recommended as its limited seating (esp for dinner). PIZZA: if you aren't already familiar with them I will share my favs! Happy they have the same great options. My absolute fav is the "Fungadelic" and its my go-to choice every time. For this visit we also got "The Sting" (salami, mozz, parm, jalapeno, hot honey) and for those spicy lovers, its legit. The combo of savory, sweet and spicy is great. It medium-hot, you defffff feel it but its not over the top. I really enjoyed. - They do weekly specials and they are always SO CREATIVE. I'm a sucker for potatoes and their take on a loaded baked potato was to die for. Bring that back every now and then, guys. Follow them on Instagram to hear the weekly specials! -You can make any of their pizzas sans lactose with a surcharge for vegan cheese, how nice! SALAD: We were looking for something else to add to our order and the server recommended the Fearless Flyer salad which is a kale-based take on the caesar. I would probably pass on this in the future. It was very lightly dressed, which I appreciate, but with the type of kale they used (blue curled, I think), its the kind that needs some marinade time to infuse and soften up. "This is rabbit food" was my thought as I ate it haha. But I DO love me some healthy veggies and I still ate it all. We asked for another side of the dressing. It was just a lil "green" and tough, is all. DRINKS: Good selection of beer. I went with The Pupil as I always do when its on the menu :) PARKING: its PB, plan for it. This area of Garnet is not too bad for street parking, though. Congrats on the opening, team! Love everything about it and we will be regulars.

    PB is seriously lacking in solid & consistent restaurants so I was stoked to try this place out! This pizza did not disappoint and it was awesome to know that most ingredients are made in house. The vibe inside is really cool, would be a great spot to take anyone visiting from out of town. Service was awesome and pizza was solid. I'd definitely return!

    Pizza Cassette has quickly become one of our favorites. We were big fans back when it was a pop-up, loved seeing it become a go-to spot at The Gärten, and now we're so excited to have this new location right by us. The space is warm, inviting, and dog friendly, which is always a huge plus. We also love that they have high-top window seating, perfect for awesome people watching on Garnet. Our server Riley was top notch from start to finish, super friendly, attentive, and made the whole experience even better! And of course, the Rocky Top sandwich was out of this world, as usual. It's huge so easily shared between two. They also have a great beverage selection, so it's a great spot to settle in, hang out, and enjoy. So happy to have Pizza Cassette in the neighborhood. We'll definitely be back!

    I tried hard to devour this thing called Queen. So hot and good.

    This place just hits the spot. The staff is so friendly, shout out to Omari and Jackie for bringing the top notch customer service from beginning to end with my visit here. I ordered the Queen pizza and added pepperoni. I was going to get it to go, but it was early enough and the vibe was pretty peaceful, so I chose to stay and eat. Worth it. My pizza came out so fresh and hot, I drank my wine while it cooled off a bit. Damn this crust is perfect. Loved the basil, it's so fragrant. Cheese very melty. Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes and oregano are in shakers on the table, which I used heartily. Btw, I highly recommend the Malbec. Omari even offered me a small taster before I made my final decision. Highly recommend this red wine if you like a juicy red to drink with your pizza. I tried to devour the whole pizza but ended up taking the rest to go. I was so happy people-watching here too, as I sat right near the window and could see the local sports bar right across from me. Parking was easy because I arrived early, but be prepared to walk a bit if you come later in the evening. I'm still thinking about the crust, it was delicious.

    The Sting
    Katie G.

    Such a great new pizza place in PB! It was a super cute little restaurant with one or two TVs so you can watch "the game" but it's not a sports bar. We got The Sting pizza and the Tomato Can sandwich. The sandwich was SO GOOD, I'd go back just for the sandwich. The sting was yummy, but it was a little too much flop and I think that's because it got a little soggy from the hot honey. Flavor was great and crust was delicious though. We had food jealousy of the people next to us who had the Elvis and the Soprano (excellent flop scores).

    First time stopping in. This place was awesome. We ordered 3 pies and loved them all. I only took one picture because we were too busy eating. Meatballs were great, arancini was great, vibes were great. Also, our server Omari was the man. He's the type of guy that makes you wanna come back. Give this spot 5 outta 5 stars.

    Inside

    Went in early on a Saturday. We always go to their location at the Garten so wanted to give this location a try. Didn't disappoint. Great service, great vibes, and even better pizza.

    Queen Pizza- so thin, it ripped/torn when we picked it up from the pizza box.

    We ordered Queen Pizza to go with high expectations based on reviews and pictures. Unfortunately, it was a big disappointment. The pizza was room temperature when we picked it up. It was super thin, burnt and flimsy. We also ordered the Fire Balls - same issues. They tasted ok, but again, they weren't hot or even warm.

    I'm not much of an Italian food lover but this was hands down the best Italian food I've had in my…read morelife. I was a bit hesitant because I typically cook my noodles IN the sauce versus topping them with sauce but this meal did not disappoint. Both the meat in the ravioli and sauce were very flavorful. The garlic bread was typical but still really tasty. The waitress was nice and hospitable. The ambiance was nice. The restaurant is located in the back of what looks like a store in front. I appreciate a nice whole in the wall, mom & pop shop. I'd definitely return next time I'm in SD.

    Pizza Wasn't the Only Thing Getting Fired Up Outside…read more We weren't even customers here, but after what I saw outside this place I definitely won't be one in the future. We were standing on the sidewalk near the red seating area in front of Filippi's Pizza Grotto for about ten minutes finishing a smoke. I had recently experienced a flare-up of a chronic illness, which significantly affected my well-being. During this episode,I had felt the need to smoke as a way to manage the heightened stress and discomfort caused by my condition. Right as we finished and were about to leave, a police car pulled up (it honestly looked like the officer was just stopping by to grab lunch). That's when an older lady employee from the restaurant suddenly came outside and said, "Do you mind moving down? The smoke is going into my restaurant." Fair request. We immediately responded respectfully with "Sorry miss," and started walking away to avoid any issue. But instead of leaving it there, she kept escalating the situation while they were already leaving, repeating things like "This is a family business, have some respect!" -- which didn't really make sense considering we had already apologized and were doing exactly what she asked. What made the whole thing feel strange was the timing. We had been standing there for around ten minutes already. If the smoke was truly bothering the restaurant, why wait until the exact moment a police car pulled up to come outside and confront us? From the outside, it honestly looked like the presence of the police suddenly gave her the confidence to make a scene and try to draw attention to us even though we were already complying. It appears she wanted to get us into legal trouble with her making it a bigger scene in front of the police. Another thing that didn't sit right with me was that we were the only Hispanics standing in the area at the time and the only people she chose to confront. I'm not saying that was the intention, but from a bystander's perspective it definitely didn't look great. Also, I'm still confused by the "this is a family restaurant" comment. What exactly does that mean in this situation? Are people who smoke not allowed to eat there? Because we weren't even customers at the moment we were simply standing on a public sidewalk and immediately moved when asked. If someone respectfully complies with your request, there's really no reason to continue escalating the situation or trying to involve the police by drawing attention to it. If this is how people are treated outside the restaurant, it doesn't exactly inspire confidence about how customers are treated inside. It appears that if you're Hispanic or a smoker you should steer clear of this place. I wouldn't be surprised if she has ICE on speed dial.

    This place was absolutely amazing. To start off with the most important part, the food. We began…read morethe meal with the mini fried calzones with mozzarella and tomato sauce inside and they were great. You could tell the bread was super fresh and high quality so I would recommend it. Next, we got a glass of prosecco. I told the waiter that I only like wine that tastes much more sweet then bitter or strong and he made a perfect suggestion along with giving us a sampler of 3 different wines which was so generous. I got to try them all and pick the one I liked the most, but even the samples were a generous size. For main course I got one of the current options for the cheese wheel pasta they make in front of you in cacio e pepe and my husband got the formaggi pizza with truffle mushrooms. My husband absolutely loved his pizza and the crust was one of the best he's ever had. My pasta was fresh and had a ton of sauce and cream so they didn't skimp at all. I could tell easily that they use very high quality Parmesan because i'm a Parmesan connoisseur and could taste how potent it was. They let me have as much extra as I wanted on without limiting since I enjoy a lot on it which was also a plus in my book. Next time I would get a pasta that's a little lighter, because it was a more heavy dish and it tends to make me feel pretty full after which is totally a me thing, but they have so much on the menu to try that I'm sure I'll love whatever I get even more next time. Lastly, dessert. We got a regular tiramisu and it was absolutely amazing. They put a ton of cream which is exactly what I look for. It wasn't too espresso or cocoa strong and had a perfect ratio. The cream was so light and fluffy that we had to get another one to bring home and eat tomorrow night! I had seen a previous review on here about someone not liking the tiramisu here and it not meeting their expectations for a more upscale Italian place but I've been to quite a few authentic Italian gems and this one had tiramisu up there so I'd have to disagree and completely recommend! The service was impeccable. Every waiter was kind and prompt, constantly making sure we were taken care of and getting what we needed. The atmosphere was also a plus for us because we have a 1 year old baby and there was enough room where we weren't too cramped or crowded in, and it wasn't too loud or overstimulating. The place was very clean and taken care of as well as the bathrooms. All in all, I loved this place and I will be coming back. I would definitely recommend Monello for a nice little date night, and don't forget the tiramisu.

    Nice calamari to start and wine Wednesday selection was fabulous…read more I had the parpadelle with pesto and chopped grilled chicken. Fresh and garlicky and the chicken portion gave a great bite with every forkful. Would return!
