Perfect for an outing for our small family of three. Toddler approved and took bites from all three meals - we had a fried pizza appetizer with burrata on top (texture is like a doughnut), the pappardelle with meat and red sauce, and the mushroom pizza. See pix. So delicious.

Their homemade pastas are incredible and you can mix and match pasta with different sauce and add ins. The salads are also really good as starters. Great selection of wines and desserts. We got the fried pizza dough with dipping sauce - amazing!' Service was wonderful as well. Our waiter was super personable and made great recommendations. We can't wait to go back!

You order at the counter down below and they call your food as each item is ready. Pizza came out first so we started there. Not my favorite pizza. Very doughy and soft, the sauce is a little sweet. My 13/14 year old LOVED the pizza so who am I to criticize. Next came the baked wings. Ask for them well done so they come out crispy and yummy. I appreciate that these are not fried and seed oils. These were the gem of the meal. Only thing I would change is the freezing cold wing sauce they put on the side from the refrigerator. But def a winner. Next came out the salad, we got the port salad with roasted butternut squash, grilled portobello's, Argus and loads of blue cheese. This salad was FIRE!!! The only knock is they don't make their own dressing so you get a little side of plastic canister of Ken's salad dressing, which is a decent dressing but full of canola and soybean oil next time I would probably bring my own dressing or just squeeze some lemon on it and put some olive oil that I brought with me, but that's just me being picky. It's a damn good salad. I wish it didn't come out 30 minutes after i ordered. It was 12pm so I didn't have any beer, my mistake I'm sure. Consensus: I would come back for wings and salad for sure, the pizza needs some work.

From 11 months ago…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 While that was terrible experience I have still come and enjoy coming as a poor shift leader does not reflect on food quality. Food is still great

Ordered were a Pepperoni pizza and the Margherita pizza. Margherita is always too bland for me no matter where I have it. I have to go for pepperoni always on my pizza, and it was tasty. I would've added mushrooms, but it wasn't my turn. Nice crust, flavorful, very thin Woodfired pizza. Just a note-share and eat it there. Too floppy for leftovers. My preference. Tagliatelle Bolognese was upscale flavor with the right spice and totally 100% agreed with my taste buds. I am a fan of thinner pasta, but this is how it's done at Parlor. Funny, it was extremely long strands of pasta so have your knife ready. Unlike the pizza, it made great leftovers, and I thought it tasted even better the next day. So I don't recommend sharing it. Ha! Make reservations, find parking or take the trolley when it's running.

Cosentino's Pizza -- San Clemente Pier…read more Let me clarify something immediately: I did not come for a peaceful walk. I came riding a crazy-ass Tesla-fast go-kart, basically stolen from my own kid Max -- because daddy needs to have some fun too. Life's about balance, okay? Parenting and speed violations on a pier. And right there, mid-ride, ocean wind slapping my face, seagulls plotting crimes -- Cosentino's Pizza appears like a divine pit stop. The pizza? Straight fire. Crispy crust, perfect chew, cheese pulling like it's auditioning for a commercial, sauce hitting that "don't ask questions, just eat" zone. This is the kind of slice you eat standing up, slightly out of breath, helmet still on, questioning your life choices -- in the best way possible. Now pause everything. GIA. Boss. Manager. Queen. Controller of the oven universe. Cool, sharp, zero nonsense, all heart. You can feel she runs the place just by the way everything works. And then... the chocolate chip cookies. I'm not exaggerating. These cookies should be regulated by the government. Warm, gooey, perfectly balanced, chocolate melting like it knows it's special. One bite and you forget you were just committing minor pier-related felonies in a go-kart. Pizza on the pier. Ocean views. Stolen go-kart from my kid. Gia dropping the best motherfing cookies on planet Earth*. If you're on San Clemente Pier and you skip Cosentino's -- seek help. If you stop here -- welcome to the correct timeline. Max, I'll return the go-kart later. Probably.

Went for a second time this week and were surprised to have accidentally joined their trivia night on Wednesdays! Service is so quick and friendly, you order at the counter, but they'll come to your table for extra orders. Love!
