Love this location. Parking upstairs is preferred. Order downstairs and feast upstairs. Lots of old school arcade games for the kids. Of course the food is awesome and priced well for the custom pizzas. Service was much faster here over the Carlsbad location. Love the true California coast vibe. read more

The food was very good. I put it up there with toppers. One downside though was the service. The food took over an hour to be made 2 pizzas.

First time here and the food was delicious. Definitely recommend the Mac & cheese bites! Ranch tastes a little weird since it's out of one of those pump machines but not horrible. Good vibes & food! read more

Hands down one of my favorite pizza spots that I recently discovered! The Pizza Monterey with mushrooms and artichokes all covers together so well. The chicken wings were baked, not fried making them really tender. The bartender at this location was super sweet and very personable. I'm not a beer drinker, but they offer various wines, and the Sunkissed orange seltzer which I loved. Definitely a spot worth checking out if you're in the area read more

Made a pit stop for a quick lunch on our way to San Diego. We ordered: Cali Creamin on nitro was so smooth with a clean finish. Cruisin pale ale was light refreshing . Easy to drink while eating Pizza Monterey hit the spot for us! Crust was perfectly fluffy yet crispy . Artichoke hearts perfectly cooked and blended well with the rest of the pizza . Garden salad was a garden salad. Nothing special. There's inside and outside patio seatings . read more

They have a great lunch deal that goes until 3pm, where you can get two slices of pizza and a soda for $10. Or you can upgrade it to a beer and get the 2 slices and a beer for roughly $13. It is expensive here if you are going during regular prices, but it's near the beach in San Clemente so this place is located in a great area read more

It's so doughy. Chewy. Very little cheese or sauce. Thank goodness they have tubs of ranch dressing to dip the huge crusts into. Beer and vibes are good for hanging out. But the pizza .... mmmeehhhhhh... read more

Great beers, decent prices, pizza is good, great place to bring kids. It's roomy, there's parking-which is a hot commodity in this town! They have LOTS of seating, 2 stories and an outdoor patio too. You get great views of the ocean from most spots. They also have a little arcade area upstairs that's great for the kids. Lots of interesting pizza combinations. They usually do a walk up service, which is fine and gives something for one of the party to do/bring the kids along to. read more

Great beer selection and fantastic pizza. Nice place to hang out with a good view. Park in the back. read more

the young cash register girl with dirty blonde hair was so rude. Didn't even give me my cup for a drink and told us it was going to be a 30 minute wait ended up waiting an hour and a half for one pizza I will never go back. She was so rude and had a rbf. I was there yesterday at 6 PM. read more

Pizza is so delicious. Something about their dough and how it's cooked. Definitely recommend this place. Pizza staff was friendly and very helpful. Beer menu was a little unorganized and hard to read. Guy working the bar area was a little off putting but overall good beer. read more

My wife and I are originally from the East Coast, and we love our pizza. We lived in Costa Mesa for a while, and Pizza Port was our favorite pizza in Orange County. I am a former brewer, and we always loved the beer, too. Now we live in San Diego. I hadn't been here in a number of years and I met up here with some colleagues. PP hadn't changed a bit, but I had. I am now vegan and I was a little concerned about what my options would be. I parked on Avenida de la Estrella, then later moved my car to the parking lot (you do know that they have one, right?) Pretty decent crowd for a Friday afternoon. I needn't have worried about the vegan options. I got the Laguna vegan-style with plant-based cheez. I don't know what brand they use, but the pizza was just as good as I remembered, and my colleague didn't seem to notice the difference. I don't know if I had ever tried the Belgian Tripel before, but it definitely hit the mark, and my colleague enjoyed one as well. I warned her that it was deceptively strong. It was smooth, with the right yeast flavor notes. I get the feeling that my colleagues and I will be back. One thing: why put cheese on the salad, PP? Why? read more

This is probably one of my favorite pizza spots in OC! Not only is it by the beach, but it's also 2 stories with the ability to sit outside and watch the sunset. We ordered a small meet extreme meat pizza, which is basically a meat lovers pizza, and added jalapeños to it. We also ordered a side of buffalo wings. All that came out to around $25 and it filled 2 people up just the right amount. The pizza was perfectly doughy and had a good amount of toppings. The wings were also covered in sauce and the veggie sticks and ranch were the perfect pairing. I'd definitely come back to try their other pizzas or make my own. Don't skip out on this place! Parking is a little challenging, but definitely worth the hunt. The workers are also really nice and will call your name when your order is ready! read more

We went to San Clemente today on the Metro from Orange to attend the San Clemente street fair. It is a $10 round trip ticket. I recommend the metro to everyone who wants to go from LA to Oceanside and vice versa. We were famished and ordered a large pepperoni pizza for 3. The restaurant is large with upstairs and outside seating. It took about 15 mins for our pizza as they were busy. There's one line for pizza and another for the beer. The pizza is perfectly baked, great amount of sauce, cheese and pepperonis. It was a delicious pizza! Definitely recommend and will return. read more

To Whom It May Concern, I'm writing to formally report a safety incident that occurred at your Pizza Port location on July 10 at approximately 8:10 PM. While entering toward the second-floor parking lot, my daughter slipped on what appeared to be discarded pieces of salad near the stairwell. This posed a serious hazard, and it's unacceptable that no preventative cleaning or signage was in place. As a general manager in the restaurant industry, I understand that accidents happen -- but how they're handled is what defines your operation. When I brought the issue to the manager on duty, it was met with a dismissive and careless attitude. No guest complaint form was offered, no apology was extended, and no effort was made to make things right. At the very least, we should have been offered a complimentary meal -- especially given that we were there to enjoy dinner, and it's not easy for families to dine out in today's economy. This situation was not only poorly managed, but it showed a lack of regard for guest safety and hospitality. I expect a follow-up on how your team plans to address this issue, both in terms of cleanliness and customer service, to ensure no other guest has to experience this. Name of manage on duty was Carson and general manager Braden nuxoll still hasn't done a single thing. Very sad for such a good establishment to get ruined by bad management read more

2nd Pizza Port location I've been too. Ocean Beach Pizza is the way to go. Like the ranch dispenser. Great crust. Beer is good. Though bartender here was rude, didn't want to take the time to talk about the beers, make recommendations. ID'ed everyone, my husband had to text me to come to the bar as the bartender wanted to check everyone's IDs. Nice location. Needs more outdoor seating. read more

Great pizza, very casual environment, great beer, the service is great. Never any problem

I love the pizza here! I really like the taste of the pizza dough, and they are very generous with the toppings.

If you're in San Clemente and craving delicious pizza with some killer local brews, Pizza Port is the place to be. This local gem is a hit with everyone, from families to beer lovers and even surfers. The food is awesome, the value is on point, and the beer selection is top-notch. Whether you're chilling with friends or just grabbing a quick bite, Pizza Port has the perfect vibe. It's honestly the only spot I've found in San Clemente that hits the mark every time. Love it! The customer service was great! read more

Came here for the first time and I was so excited as soon as I walked in. The spiral stairs are so cool and the decor adds to the cool vibe of this place. Although the place was packed, my order came out in a reasonable amount of time. The pizza was really good and the wings were bombbb!! I had a small CYO pizza with Signature Crust, Original Sauce, Pepperoni, Sausage, Bell Peppers, Mushrooms, Olives, Red Onions, Spinach and I ordered 6 Buffalo chicken wings and got 7 . Cool experience overall, definitely want to come back! read more

This place was great. Of course there were so many beer options, as well as pizza recommendations or you could build your own. You order up at the counter and then find seating. The kale salad was one of the best salads I've ever had. The kale went so good with the feta and the hearts of palm were a nice touch. The pizza had a perfect amount of toppings and cheese with every bite. The people taking our order we're all very nice and the food came out pretty quickly, despite it being a very busy Friday night. Lots of seating upstairs and downstairs. read more

This is our local spot for pizza (with beer crust), wings (triple baked), and craft beers (any and all!). The interior is chill vibes with old school surf pics, boards, and cool random stickers everywhere. The hubz and I usually order a medium pep, 'shrooms, jalapeños, and extra sauce pizza on beer crust, but you can't go wrong with any of their specialties...so good! We're fans of IPAs, and their changing menu never disappoints. I think you can view their selection (live stream) online. Wednesday ($0.75) wing night, and weekends are crowded, but the guys do an awesome job getting your order out hot and fresh (just be sure you hear your name when called!). Seating is sometimes hard to find during peak hours, but you'll always get one if you come right when they open...LOL! Everytime we've been, the staff who take your order are great, and service with a smile is always plus points! Cheers and happy eating till next time! read more

Walking in, this place feels sticky. I feel like there's a lot of store and not a lot of sitting every time I go here. The food is good. The appetizers are sub par and if there's a rush of customers it takes over an hour to get a pizza regardless of size which is interesting since there ideally should be enough room in the oven to make a personal sized pizza while others are in there haha. Not saying later orders should be prioritized however it doesn't make sense in my head. Went with a group of friends and waited the hour for each of our pizzas cause it is WORTH it they do make delicious pizza but I would recommend calling it in beforehand if possible. The staff is usually very friendly and helpful. read more

For a place called Pizza Port you would think they would have decent pizza. What you get is doughy pizza, bland plasticky cheese and basic tomato sauce. The pizza is very mediocre. I also ordered the tater tots which are oven baked. Very meh. You have to salt them on your own. The service is decent. They will attend to you quickly but everything is ordered at the cashier. Female bartender in the first floor bar was nice and friendly. Family friendly environment with arcade games on the second floor. read more

Still the best pizza + beer spot I know in southern OC. Great choices, affordable, beers on tap are local, and the building is a vibe

Highly impressed with their pizzas! We got 2 small (10in) pizzas for 2 of us and it filled us up! The Carlsbad is really great for pesto lovers, plus sun dried tomatoes add a nice tang. The Meet Extreme Meat has a more classic pizza flavor profile with red sauce, pepperoni, sausage, & ham (definitely lived up to its name). Didn't get a chance to try their beers on tap but will next time! Service was pretty fast, we ordered at the front and found a table upstairs. We only had to wait around ~15 minutes until our food was ready. They have plates, boxes, parmesan, red pepper flakes, and other condiments on the side that you can grab yourself. I enjoyed the casual, laid-back vibe here! It was a perfect lunch stop on our day trip to San Clemente. read more

The pizza was very good. I went in a Friday night and waited 45 minutes for my pizza. The restaurant had good theming, but not very clean. Candy and trash on the floor. I had to ask an employee to clean off a table once I found one. I do not recommend going on a weekend or Friday night unless you are ok for waiting a while for your food and wait around for a table to become available. read more

An am not one to say, hey let's go get pizza. Well, everyone in my group was raving about the pizza at this spot, so it was a go and let's see what it's all about. What a fun vibe. Loved the enterance, so inviting. It's walk up an order/pickup once ready. There are 2 stories to the place. First level has some seating and a bar in the corner. 2nd level has lots of seating, arcade games, ocean view, another bar, and sports games on tv. The Pizza is delicious!! Dare I say one of my favorites in SoCal. It's the perfect crust and thickness making the pizza slice durable and easy to handle. Just writing this review, I wish I lived closer. Don't sleep on this one. All around great experience and good vibe. read more

Beer 5/5 Beer Buddies 5/5 Pizza 5/5 Wings 3/5 Pizza Port has excellent pizza and beer! A great place to eat, catch up with friends, and watch the game. My favorite pizzas are the Meet Extreme Meat and then a Classic Pepperoni with Jalapeño. The dough is perfectly chewy, but the crust still has excellent crunch - the texture you want in your pizza. The wings are average at Pizza Port, but the Beer Buddies are amazing! If you need to choose a side or an appetizer - go with the Beer Buddies. It gets pretty busy here on the weekends so I recommend getting a table before the lunch rush. Around 11:30 am is a good time to grab lunch at Pizza Port on the weekends (11:00 am would be even better if you have a large group). Weekdays aren't as busy fortunately. You can always order some takeout as well! read more

Excellent pizza. Some of the best I've tasted. As well, their house double IPA was superb. They would generously deserve five stars. However, their business model works very well except when busy. And tonight it was really busy and it was totally disorganized. For anyone new to the restaurant, there is nowhere where they have their ordering protocol. Which is to find a table anywhere, order either upstairs or downstairs, or order and then find a table, and then get your liquid libation of preference, then wait until you're name is called which is the name on your credit card. Then go get your food and bring it back to your group. So we found seating on the upper balcony and while waiting, the sun set and it got dark. No one in the restaurant seemed to know how to turn on the lights. The previous group upstairs had left a mess, we had to clean it up since there was no one that seemed to work there with distinctive insignia. I went downstairs and it took time for the cash register folks to find our order, even though it had been at least a half hour. Eventually I got a status. And eventually the pizza came through. It was absolutely delicious. Awesome food, awesome ambiance, fun place. Their ordering protocols need some reordering, though. read more

Sad day in pizza world! We've been ordering pizza port for years. Always enjoyed it tho on the expensive side. Thursday night we uber 2 pizzas and a dinner salad for $72 dollars. The pizzas were both terrible. No cheese and no sauce and way too much dough that wasn't even crispy. All four of us looked at each other after I few bits and said this is junk wtf? Never again. Off the list. And TJs closed too. Bummer! read more
