so many people had recommended truly pizza to me, but this place is so hard to get a reservation…read morefor, so i was super excited when my bf was able to secure one a month in advance!! i think the wait was definitely worth it bc i had never had such crispy and yummy pizzas before that made me want to keep eating despite being so stuffed. i do recommend getting at least one round and one square pizza to try the different crusts! - sweet & spicy: 5/5 - i LOVED this pizza! our waitress shared that this is the most ordered pizza, and i could see why! the hot honey added the perfect sweetness to the pizza, and i loved the freshness of the mozzarella that made the pizza so cheesy and creamy. also, the crust is amazingly crispy and light! - the ladou: 4/5 - i usually don't order barbecue chicken pizza, but my bf loves the CPK one and wanted to try this out too. our waitress shared that this version is actually a mimic of the CPK one with a truly pizza twist, so that was a nice fun fact! i liked the flavors of this one a lot and thought the barbecue flavor wasn't too sweet. my bf said that he still prefers the CPK one tho. - champion tomato & pizza: 3.5/5 - claimed as their award winning pizza, it was a very simple marinara pizza that was pretty yummy but a little too plain for me since i like my toppings. very yummy tho, and i can see why they won! - garlic pull apart bread: the bread was really soft and i loved the cheese on top! i kinda wish there was more cheese tho LOL but still pretty good - house yuzu lemonade: this had a nice tartness that helped cut the richness of the pizzas! overall, i "truly" had a great dinner here! we were seated outside, so it can get a bit cold from the weather, but the heaters were nice in keeping us toasty. our waitress was also so efficient and kind in explaining all the questions we had. i'd definitely come back again if i could secure another reservation hahaha

Got takeout and the pizza was so delicious!! My favorite was the pepperoni; I was very impressed!…read moreIt was thin, cheesy, and great quality ingredients! With no ranch the sauces we got on the side were the chipotle and marinara were not good. But the chimichuri was very good. And I want to try the blue cheese next time. I also really liked the jalapenos I added. Their pizza was wayyyy better than the fake hype at Truly--facts! I saw people complaining about service etc so hopefully will still have a positive experience dining in as well.

We came into Homeslice today to watch the USA v Belgium World Cup game. We arrived around 5:10pm…read morejust after the game started, and were seated at a table on the patio. There was a large group of people (started as a group of five but grew to about 10-12 people) who ended up bleeding into the table next to us and asked if they could take our two extra chairs. Being friendly, we said "sure, no problem!". Shortly after, Marc came over and asked if our chairs had been taken and we let them know that the group next to us asked for them. In response, with deep condescension he responded "No, that isn't okay we have a lot of people waiting", which we understood but we also don't work there and aren't going to be rude to fellow patrons. He then told the group next to us he needed the chairs back only to not actually use said chairs for seated guests. It left all of us very confused for the unnecessary interaction. About 15 minutes later, my husband was looking for our server to order another drink and close out, when Marc came up and told us he needed the table. Mind you, we took time out of our evening to get there early for the game (as did everyone else that evening) and there was no signage nor a heads up from the team onsite that there was a limit on the tables, especially as we weren't the only people there for the very same reason. We had been there about 1.5 hours at that point and there was only a little bit left in the game. The group next to us who had also been there the entire time, and got sat before we did, weren't told they needed to get up, but we were given the third degree for our two spots. When my husband asked if he could get that next drink, Marc responded "I don't take orders" and walked away. Our server then proceeded to not check on us for an additional 20 minutes (we were trying to close out as requested), which ironically made it so we took up their table for the remainder of the game. He also mentioned that he ran into a similar issue with guests the previous week for the game, which sounds to me like an opportunity for better problem-solving skills and coaching amongst the team, not a customer-issue. All of this, only for there to be NO wait when we left AND open tables. Being that my husband and I are both in hospitality management, we were extremely frustrated by the lack of respect and embarrassing customer service by none other than Marc Sullivan, a co-owner of Homeslice. I think it's a bare minimum ask that the management and ownership, have the same decency and respect for paying customers that they expect of the rest of their service staff. By the time we got to our car it was 7pm and hadn't even been two full hours, all for our table to not even be needed. Totally understand it being a busy night but highly recommend that the team game plan better rather than making it the customers' responsibility to highlight where this situation could have been improved. Really bummed to have this experience as we're DP locals and love coming to eat/drink here!

Beach Harbor Pizza n Dana Point closed its location on April…read more30, 2026. This wonderful delicious pizza place has been here for decades, great food great service, great atmosphere! Reason for Closure: The restaurant, along with several others, closed due to the $600 million Dana Point Harbor redevelopment project (information from readings) But the good news is : Owner Mario Bahena and his team were searching for a new location, with plans to keep the same name and continue serving the area!

At the last minute our plans for 4th of July dinner changed and I needed a couple of pizzas!…read moreFlippin Pizza was close to us and had good reviews. But I had no idea what to order. We went in to talk to them and make sure they would still be open at 6:00. A very nice lady helped us (I should have gotten her name) and we had a good time laughing about needing a man's pizza (we chose the Tiboro). And for the ladies pizza (half Whitestone and 1/2 Tomato garlic basil). The pizza was ready at the time we requested. Everyone loved the pizza and the party was saved. The pizza is hand tossed thin crust. They offer gluten free and cauliflower crusts. There are several specialty pizzas or you can create your own. They also sell pizza by the slice and they offer wings with several different types of sauce. We will be back!

Initial impression from the outside having never been to flippin, was that it was a chain with the…read moreads in the window. Walking inside it was unremarkable, walls were bare and the dark motif was not really clean. The young man behind the register was nice but didn't say anything after I told him it was my first visit. I ordered a whole pie, pepperoni and jalapeno. Gave a cash tip after paying with cc. The guys working were active, mostly phone orders. One other customer in the store with me. They acknowledged that I was waiting told me about 20 mins. I strolled over to the Albertsons to kill time, came back and they acknowledged that I was waiting again. Got my pie, came home to feed the fam. The pie was maybe a 4/10, sauce ranked high, but was over sauced at point causing the bottom crust to open up in a couple spots. Cheese was extremely sparse, never a stringy bite on any slice. Pep was quality but not crispy on top at all, that extra charred flavor was missing. $30 and change for the pie. $3 cash tip. Likely will not be back.

We loved the pizza we shared and were taken aback by the richness of the flavors we were experiencing. The only two things I was meh about: 1. we bought fountain drinks, but we were not told that more than half of the sodas were not working. had I known I would have happily settled for water. 2. got one of my kids the personal pan pizza. She didn't like it, I thought she was being difficult. I took a bite and yeah, it wasn't all that great. It seemed like the top cooked perfectly but the salami was still cold inside. All in all, I will 100% come back whenever I am in the area. The pizza I shared with my friends was absolutely perfect!

Casanova Ristorante has been in the same shopping center in Dana Point for decades and this was the…read morefirst time I finally enjoyed their food. First off, it has a great vibe inside with large booths, a bar, and then on the other side more of a dining vibe, and an outdoor patio. I went on a Saturday night around 6:45 and there was plenty of seating available. We started with some complimentary focaccia with olive oil and balsamic, and then I ordered the cheese and spinach ravioli, that comes with a small side salad. My friend ordered the chicken Parmesan and I highly recommend. That one also comes with a baby side salad as well as broccolini and a small portion of delicious fettuccini Alfredo. It was quite the meal. We finished dinner with one of the best pieces of tiramisu I've ever had. The portion was huge, enough to have some left over for later. I wish I could remember our server's name...she was wonderful! Super friendly and helpful. She also gave great recommendations on what to order. Looking forward to coming back soon!

From the moment we walked in, everything felt welcoming. Our waiter was awesome--attentive, friendly, and genuinely cared about making the night special.

The Bianca Pizza and the Bolognese were straight-up bomb--fresh, flavorful, and perfectly executed. You can tell a lot of pride goes into the kitchen here. Great service, great food, great atmosphere, and a perfect spot for a special occasion. We can't wait to come back and try more items on the menu. Highly recommend!

This place is amazing, white table cloths with black napkins, dogs on the patio, wonderful quiet postured and polite service. We ordered drinks and the the bruschetta, shrimp scampi and shrimp risotto. All of was delicately flavored with all the Italian flavors, olive oil, tomatoes, garlic, just exquisite! Then, had to try the desserts, we were set on spumoni, but the waiter recommended the chocolate cake. It was served with vanilla ice cream, yum. The chocolate was moist had walnuts and like a brownie and not too rich either. Perfect! Certainly will be going back here and bringing the pup with us. We loved the open air and breeze and the walls are high enough to block the sight of cars. Twinkle light up above add a nice touch. They also had a separate water boy, impeccably dressed and well mannered. So nice to see staff so attentive to really good service with kindness and caring tones. Can't wait for the next happy hour! If I could add on stars I would give this place 10!
