Had to see what the hype was about their pizza and gave it shot by calling their "hotline" as they call it online and reserved a whole pepperoni pizza to pick up in the late afternoon. The guy was friendly and took my name down. I called at 1pm and asked that I pick up at 3:30. A bit hard to find parking but it's located on the Westside of Santa Barbara. I had to drive around to find street parking and walk 2 blocks which was fine. Small outdoor patio that's very quaint, and their interior is filled with artwork. Menu is small with focus on their small menu as well - which is always something I like (I'm a fan of specialty menus). For $19 before tax - I'm telling ya - best pizza I've ever had... Being a traditionalist towards certain foods - I would say pizza officially falls on that list. Revolver's pizza has a crisp chew in the dough, a nice wood Smokey char, pepperoni and mozzarella great quality, the tomato sauce was fresh with the right sour and sweet note. Perfectoooooo. You have to choose the whole pie though rather than their slices to get it this style - I did read other reviews and the individual slices are made differently. Good for 2 to share and we killed it! Will be my new go to for pizza in SB! read more

I love this place! Their pizza is so good and they are timely with take-out orders. I also often stop by to get their ranch dressing to-go. Everyone that works there is kind and I especially love seeing the owner. It's a secret gem! I would never go anywhere else for pizza in this town. Yum! Thin crispy, homemade crust, too! Never greasy... read more

Yes! Santa Barbara doesn't have many options for quality pizza. Revolver checks that box. Simple menu, quality service, and unique vibe. Only downside was parking but that ain't their fault! Top three pizza places in SB in my opinion. read more

Very, very good. Had the Pepperoni and margherita pizzas. Perfect amount of crust, sauce and cheese. So tasty! read more

Pretty good pizza, simple, crispy crust good flavor. Long time for pizza to be made, lack of seating, not a friendly vibe

4.7/5 Feels right at home in SB. Funky, straaightforward shop offering an artisan twist on a NY pizza chassis. Some of the best crust in So Cal - this is great pizza. Shop - eclectic, jazzy, bohemian in the best way. Rock tunes playing, minimal seating and a beer and wine fridge. No frills, the $ goes into the main prize...credit cards accepted, service good enough. Cool terrace out front that offers seating and mood lighting in the evening. Good enough for me! 4.5/5 Structure/crust - you have to let it cool down for 7-10 min to set; otherwise you're in trouble. Immediately noticed an NY crust; golden, evenly cooked and moderately thin on the crust. Wonderful flavor!!!! Fermenty, well set dough with a phenomenal chew and crunch. I taste a sourdough starter...very much a NY pie shop feel; complex and capable! A crack in the back half and the pie had no problem managing the weight of the tomato, cheese and basil. 5/5 crust! Banger!!! So money...it doesn't even know how money it is.. Sauce - they kept the sauce simple. I imagine they stuck with traditional San Marzano tomatoes and some sauce. Does the pizza justice as the crust is doing so much for the flavor already. I will say, I'd love to throw my seasoned, cooked sauce on a pie w the owner and see how it sits w a bottle of Central Coast red wine..one can dream! 4.75/5 Cheese - simple, mozz. I didn't pick up much sharpness, but was having a local beer...did absolutely fine and allowed that fresh basil to do its thing. Good amount, and happy they didn't use fresh mozz here. 4.5/5 Caught em while they were quiet, feel fortunate I did...I haven't had all of Santa Barbara's pizza, but you'd be hard pressed to find a higher quality NY style pizza with sophisticated flair. Trustworthy as its six-shooter namesake; Revolver is a bulls eye shot from the hip. read more

Parking was a huge problem. We circled the block at least three times, to finally find one parking spot half a block down. Review based off of their square pi: The place had a really cool atmosphere inside. It was filled with posters, and playing music from a vinyl! The place is small, but that's what makes it unique. The pizza was good, but it lacked flavor in the red sauce. The crisp/crunch when you took a bite was amazing. If you've been to other pizza places that serve square slices then its worth a try. I would definitely come back to try their New York Style pizza. read more

The pizza here is fantastic! Off the beaten path and kind of tucked away but I am so glad I found it. Prices are very reasonable. I definitely recommend it. read more

Best pizza in so cal. I'm not joking. Perfectly balanced. Also the Caesar salad hits hard. After reading some of the other reviews I hope the following helps new diners: 1. Call your order in early! It's a small shop and they take the time to make your order from scratch! 2. It's all to go. If you need napkins or something ask?? It's now standard practice in an order to be more sustainable to not give out plastic cutlery and napkins... 3. Pretty sure they use a passta (just tomato) sauce which is legit for a true Italian pizza. Let the tomato do the talking. If you think it's sour you probably don't like acid and are used to sugar in your sauces. 4. You want a fire crust moment. It's not supposed to be soft and chewy. So if you like that kind of thing go to ca'darios pizza (ugh that place sucks). 5. It's sourdough based crust... which is hard to come by and absolutely perfect for pizza. Thanks revolver, don't change a thing! read more

This place and lucky penny are tops for me. Killer dough, great ingredients, some inventive combos. If you like pizza you will be happy to be here. The place has a good vibe and it seems like the folks know they make good food. read more

We lucked out when we went to pick up our pizza - there was a live Jazz band who were practicing for an event, They were simply amazing. Pizza is worth a try -- tasty Pepperoni on a thin crust. I loved the easy going vibe of the place.. and the fact that they were dog friendly. read more

I tried to call for a pizza. Young woman answered the phone asked me to hold and put the phone down. 15 Minutes later having heard ALL the kitchen chatter. "Is that all the orders for now " as an example I hung up. Out of curiosity I called back for once in a while for 20 minutes and it was busy every time. Still Can't comment on the food :) read more

Good pizza need to try squares. Could raise your score half a point. Please cut or tear the fresh basil. Whole piece just to much.

Cool spot on the westside to check out! They have outdoor seating with heaters. Service was good. We ordered the Caesar salad, pepperoni pizza, and an Ysidro sake spritz. The Caesar salad dressing was a tad heavy on the anchovy flavor for my taste and the pizza was on the salty/spicy side. Both were decent, though! I really liked the sake spritz, and would definitely grab one of those again. read more

Blown away! I've been meaning to leave a review for a while now, For sure the best pizza I've had in California or quite possibly EVER! Staff is friendly and welcoming, vibes are awesome with live music sometimes and I for sure always take a pie to leave with to bring home. For sure recommend to anyone looking for pizza in SB area or on the way up or down the coast! read more

Spectacular, amazing, SO GOOD! Very simple menu and you're doing yourself a favor to just get the whole pie instead of one slice. The fresh basil really sets it apart and I think it's one of my favorite pizza spots in the city! Hoping and wishing for the day we can go sit and eat outside on the patio! I've heard many good things about this place and it lived up to expectations!! read more

Revolver - Pepperoni pizza with fresh basil - Pizza Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Really tasty sauce ! That was my main Takeaway. It Seems like they make everything from scratch including the ranch dressing. I got two margarita pizzas one was olive(the whole olive which I love ) and a Caesar salad. The salad was really really yummy and simple With really fresh baby red leaf, I believe. Play Arthur also came with this really spicy vinaigrette type stuff which seem like it's kind of salsa. I'm not sure what it was but it was really delicious. It was flavorful and spicy. I got my food to go but they had a cute little patio out front , I can't remember if they have seating inside. But it was really cute and they had a nice range of beer and things like that plus ! All the staff was very friendly. read more

The best Pizza West of Lucali Pizza in Carol Gardens in Brooklyn. Great ingredients and flavors work so good together.... A must!

Found this place on yelp and we decided to give it a try because the pictures made the pizza look delicious! The lady at the counter was super sweet and welcoming. I asked to used the restroom and she was kind enough to let me use it which I really appreciated. She then said the sink doesn't work that I'll have to use the sink in the kitchen. I got weirded out by that and sure enough I did just that. I just thought right off the bat it is unsanitary to do that. We get our pizza and it looks just like the pictures, delicious. But we found a hair cooked under the cheese in our pizza. I was already kind of grossed out from the restroom situation.. I literally lost my appetite. The staff though, is amazing... I know letting me use the restroom was a very nice gesture.. but I really wish they would've told me they didn't have public restrooms or "it's out of service" I feel bad but I will sadly not be returning. read more

This pizza knocks ! Let's start with crust; chewy, charred, nice sour/salty & airy delicious. The sauce, delicious. Cheese delicious. And all the usual toppings delicious quality. You getting the point? White pizza on point & they get creative, like me & the wifey had the white pizza tonight with Indian sang; a revelation of delight. Try this pizzeria take a bite & picture you're in Rome or New York. Open em & you on the west side of Santa B. Not a bad city to enjoy a nice slice or two, yeah ! read more

Revolver - Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

This is the best pizza I've ever had. San diego has lots of good ones to offer, from thin to a thicker crust, but this takes the cake. The sauce is natural and tastes like you're entering a fresh garden. When it comes to the dough, you're receiving a great crunch along with a textured chew to follow. When it comes to their toppings they keep it simple with their freshness and they rely on their natural ingredients to provide the best quality flavor for guests. The service was top notch and they greeted us with a smile. The vibe gives indie cute boutique meets a jazz studio. This is a must try if you're around Goleta/ Santa Barbara. Tell them bryan sent you . read more

They let me order in advance for dine in. Crust great, flavor of sauce amazing, so many pepperoni. Nice shaded patio. Service people very nice. Ceasar salad a little too much fresh grated Parmesan but tasty. Veggie pizza rossa has no cheese so make sure to specify but delicious. About $16 per pizza which would feed 3. Has 6 large slices . Mexican bakery right next door which is a bonus read more

Current options are patio dining (first come first serve - just about 4 tables) or takeaway. Recommended to call ahead to order, with pizzas being freshly made to order it can be a bit of a wait. Parking can be tricky but we circled around a couple times and eventually found street parking (free). Caesar salad was so good with a generous amount of freshly grated cheese! My kind of salad. Pepperoni pizza comes with fresh basil on top which is a huge plus. Love that. Service was friendly and attentive. Jazz made us feel welcome and made sure to check on us regularly. :) Overall a great option for those craving NY style pizza on the West Coast. read more

Took my three daughters to Revolver last night and we were pretty blown away. I was a longtime San Francisco resident, and the relaxed atmosphere, quality of the food and nonchalance (jazz wafting from vintage speakers, paper plates and plastic cutlery paired with blow-me-away Thin crust NY style pizza...) all reminded me of the early 2000s in the Mission District. Where the famous Pizzeria Delfina was born. Revolver is heighborhoody, welcoming, smiling hostess, fun melange of tables outside and art posters. It feels like a side of Santa Barbara that I would like to see more of: fabulous ingredient driven food that is not just Mexican food -- but earthy and glamorous because of the produce and SKILL of the chefs. Five stars. We will be back. read more

Insane. Totally bonkers. Fucking delicious. We will be back again and again. The location is great, I love the patio and casual atmosphere. The streamlined menu beams with confidence and stands shoulder to shoulder with a truly flawless product. The staff is delightful and anyone on here complaining about the customer service should consider that maybe you are not as nice of a person as you think you are. read more

Organic Sourdough. I think maybe the only one within quite a radius other than Full of Life Flatbread. Legit. Really not going to find better. Maybe different but not better. And I have my own 900 degree woodfire oven. I know my crust. This is unique and very much worth the price. The cost and the fact that I was told to pick it up in 45 minutes in this case points to quality. You cant rush a good thing. At revolver you get what you pay for. read more

Revolver - a pizza in a pizza box - Pizza Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Neat spot. Excellent pizza. Mediocre service. Revolver is a pizza spot I've been intrigued over. It's sort of a hidden gem located on Santa Barbara's westside. While it's on a busy corner, it's sort of hard to see from the road as the front is dominated by a nice patio. We dined here last night and took advantage of watching a live band on the patio. That was enjoyable for sure. The interior is small and doesn't offer table seating. While we were there, it appeared that many of their customers' orders were pick-up. I ordered a slice of their pepperoni and a can of Draughtsmen beer. It was pricey, but the pizza was excellent. I loved the thick crust, the abundance of small pepperoni slices, and the artisan sauce. It was just delicious and at $6.50, felt more like a personal pie than a singular slice. It appears that this place makes the pizzas fresh on the spot, as we were told that the order would take 20 minutes to prepare. It's always a treat knowing that the food is made fresh so the wait time was no big deal, especially as we got to take advantage of watching the live music out front. I'd say my only gripe here was the customer service. The young man at the cash register (not one of the owners) wasn't friendly. When I asked if they served beer (I could only see wine in their refrigerator), he sort of crassly pointed in the general direction and told me "I already told you we have beer." I also learned that the food isn't brought out to the table. We walked in about 30 minutes after waiting and they handed it to us. Kind of strange, they weren't busy at the time, but maybe this place just doesn't offer any sort of table service. Would have been nice to have our name called, but I suppose this is a newer spot with kinks to be ironed out still. I hope this place does well. Awesome pizza, but not sure if I will be back again. read more

I'm from the east coast and lived in LA, so I have high pizza standards. I left Revolver satisfied. The pie crust was crispy, sauce was delicious (heavy on garlic, which I loved but my husband wasn't as much of a fan of- he would say go light on the sauce next time, but I wanted to dip my crust in it). I got both the margarita pie +mushrooms and the margarita slice to try the different pie crusts. The slice is Sicilian style and the crust is fucking delicious - sweet, extra crispy, but fluffy. I'd like to go back to try other pie flavors, and would definitely get a slice again. My husband says he prefers Bettina, but Revolver is currently top of my list. read more

This is definitely a little locals spot hidden away in a residential neighborhood. If you don't pay attention you could drive right by it which we actually did while we were looking for it. We were in Santa Barbara for the day and the girlfriend wanted pizza and we love spots with that little cup pepperoni type. We were initially disappointed that when we tried to order a pizza we were warned that if we ordered a whole pizza it would be an hour wait because there were so many to-go orders ahead of us. We were offered some slices and that would only be about 15 minutes of waiting. We wanted an entire pizza but we figured we'll try this since we didn't want to wait. I think it ended up being a little more than 15 minutes but the wait was worth it. We really didn't think a slice of pizza would fill us up but these slices are different. I don't know how to describe them. The dough was thick and very crunchy. Not your typical pizza dough. The sauce was good and sweet but not overly sweet. Cup pepperoni is always awesome. There was some basil on top which was a nice touch. We ate outdoors in the patio area which is definitely not the most scenic place in town and did not seem to be too popular with anyone else. We did notice that this pizza joint was very popular with the locals though. A ton of people were coming and going picking up their pizzas to-go. This will definitely be on our list for places to hit up next time we're in town. read more

Revolver - Pizza Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

So we enjoyed the pizza and staff was very friendly. Only complaint was that for close to $40 with tax and tip for a 14" pie with 2 toppings in an "off the beaten path" part of town, we thought it was overpriced. read more

First, the food. I've been watching the One Bite Pizza reviews that Dave Portnoy does and I can't stop thinking about pizza. My constant, insatiable craving for pizza as of late has just maybe been tamed by Revolver. Their "New York style" pies were the right amount of crispy, saucy, and gooey. Just how I like it. Overall, amazing pizza. So far the best I've had in Santa Barbara. Second, ambiance. Two words come to mind when I think of this place. Small and mighty. As you walk into the store, you feel as though you're walking into an A24 directed movie set about a small town pizza shop. With tons of decor heavy in cultural references, a turntable with vinyl spinning, and a bar with direct view to the kitchen, you can't help but feel like you found some sort of hidden gem. The outdoor patio area is cool too. Last, the service. It is maybe the only thing holding me back from giving a 5. The people were really nice. It just took a little long. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt because it was a Sunday night and it seemed like they were getting tons of orders out of nowhere. Nonetheless, it was 3 of us in the store and we were told it would take 45 minutes. Would I wait for this pizza again? Yes and yes again. In review. Go here if you just watched some OneBite pizza reviews and you need to get ahold of your pizza cravings. read more

Let me put this review in simple terms. Decor/Ambiance/Cleanliness: 5/5 Customer service: 5/5 Wait time: 0/5 Prices: 0/5 Parking: 1/5 Quality: 2/5 Taste: 3.5/5 I think we were better off spending $5 on gas station pizza, honestly. We ordered and were told wait was only going to be 20 minutes. We were in a huuuge rush, so "pizza by the slice" sounded really good. 20 minutes was a long wait but we stayed to order because we had already wasted half an hour trying to find somewhere to park. We ended up waiting closer to 45 minutes for a couple of slices! 45 minutes of our time, and a whopping $30.00. Customer service was good, and it's an attractive, clean little spot. Such a shame because we were left baffled with the high prices, basic average quality, and wait time. Not to mention we received burnt/charred pepperoni pizza (basically) and didn't receive any napkins or condiments... weird. Just an honest review based on my experience... I personally would not be back. read more
