    Honey siracha chicken wings were soo delicious I forgot to take a pic first before devouring them.
    Lisa W.

    Food was amazing! Service was great and the atmosphere was very lively with lots of screens and sports fans. Definitely a great place to have good food and have a good time.

    This place was busy -- you can tell it's a true local spot The waitress was super friendly and chatting with everyone, definitely the kind of place where regulars are made. We tried some fried items during happy hour and you can tell they bread everything in-house -- crispy and fresh Cocktails were solid too -- not watered down like a lot of places these days The space is pretty big, and the outdoor patio is great. Even better -- it's dog-friendly

    Stopped by on a Saturday (walk in) and hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating - we moved 3 times lol I really wanted to eat outdoors so that was our final move; thanks to the staff for their patience. We ordered a round of drinks - Aperol spritz, skinny margarita & the whiskey blueberry drink (one of the 3 out of the whiskey category Ty) overall our drinks were 10/10! We then ordered the artichoke dip this was good- not thick like most where there is a cheese pull. I ordered the meats lover pizza but added jalapeños- recommend it! My sister ordered a wedge salad which was a big portion like half of a whole lettuce. My friend ordered the fish n chips which was also tasty; not a lot of batter. Overall our GM food 10/10. Our waiter was attentive and checked in on us a few times. This is a great spot to watch sports while enjoying good food and drinks!

    The vibes were upbeat and chill and they had live music on the patio and the food was all homemade. And the portion sizes are unbeatable. Will be back next time we are in town. Not to mention they give back to the community and charity. Love that! Also our server was quick and attentive she got the memo we had a long journey home and we needed to be in and out of there! She was on it

    We had dinner here on a trip and in town for the night. It is loud inside, lots of TVs, but we were able to enjoy the Olympic action while we had dinner. The food was fine and we'd come back if we are nearby. Our server was great! Really friendly!

    Join the Pub Locally-owned spot that evidently replaced a similar restaurant called "Big Wangs" (not joking) back in 2017. The Local serves up typical sports bar pub fare (e.g., burgers, sandwiches, beer, etc.) in a family-friendly and welcoming environment. The Good: * Large shared parking lot * Dog-friendly, covered, and heated outdoor seating * Local brews and a full bar * They've donated over $146k to local charities through patrons purchasing select food and drink items. * Great service by "Nancy F" * The lunch special menu is a really good value. * Burgers were really great and cooked perfectly medium. You can also tell they're not your typical store-bought patties. The Meh: * Their tots had a strange texture/taste that was just okay. I think I actually left a few on my plate, which is unprecedented, to be honest. The Ugly: *I ordered my Shroom burger with Pastrami ($4 upgrade), but it came out without it. I wasn't going to send it back and figured I'd wait to check the receipt to make sure they didn't charge me for it. When the receipt came, it didn't show anything about Pastrami, so I figured no blood, no foul. It wasn't until later that I compared the price on the menu ($19) versus the price on my receipt ($23) that I realized they did, in fact, charge me. It's not that I care about the $4 so much as why the receipt wasn't clear about the upcharge. Conclusion: Good food, cold suds, but keep an eye on the receipt.

    Three Pastor Shrimp Tacos

    Awesome place to eat. It doesn't look great from the outside, but inside it is interesting. It has television sets maybe about 15 of them attached to the ceiling corners and they play football, basketball or soccer etc. sports on the screen. There is a bar in the front that caters to alcoholics, or people who just want to drink casually. In the back side, there are places to sit like a restaurant. It was full when I got there. My uncle came by to meet up with his cousin and we all stayed and ate together. I ordered the three tacos recommended by the restaurant called the shrimp tacos. It had an interesting seasoning on it, but sure but it was $20. What made them great was the taco shell. It was hand made and authentic. It was made to order, it came with chips. Overall I enjoyed it, it filled me up. My friends ordered a pasta dish called a penne Alfredo with chicken, a roast beef melt with tater tots and a salmon and cod sandwich. All great! But all over $20. The service was awesome. I had a beautiful young blonde girl taking our orders and she was really nice. I don't know her name but she was one of the waitresses there. The girl who escorted us to our seats was also nice and very pretty. I don't know her name either unfortunately. SMV must have been decent. The food, ambiance, wait time all within respectable limits. I enjoyed the food, value of food and quick receiving of food. The personality of waitress and looks were great. The food presentation and taste was authentic. I'll be back again. I enjoyed every minute I was there. The con was the bathroom did not have any towels to wipe hands after washing them. Outside of this, I'd say seats could have been more comfortable. Overall, great place to hang out with friends on the weekend or dine in casually with some family.

    This is the second time I've been to this restaurant. I love the location as it's across the street from our apartment. Awesome to be able to walk over to a restaurant/pub and get served relatively quickly. we love the sandwiches that we've ordered and tonight I had a Red Bull with vodka it was awesome. Great place to come and eat. Great places to eat! Kind of funny, the name of the location is called the Local Pub and Grill. Apropos for the name of the restaurant! Check it out if you are near Valencia or Magic Mountain. They have happy hour Monday through Friday from 3 PM to 5 PM, late night happy hour on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday Night 8 pm to close.

    As vegans, we're always excited to explore the local food scene, and The Local Pub & Grill did not disappoint. One of our favorite things is that they offer the option to swap any burger with a plant-based patty, which makes it easy to enjoy a great meal without feeling limited. The standout for us was the Gochujang Tofu--this was hands down the BEST! Packed with flavor and perfectly cooked, it's something we'd come back for every time. They also always have pre-curated mixed cocktails that are so good and pair perfectly with the food. It's not always easy finding vegan-friendly options that feel this intentional, so this spot is definitely a win in our book. The server was able to answer questions and work with us for all our substituitions. They place was super clean and has indoor and out door seating.

    Stopped in here with the oldest child after a day at Magic Mountain, just down the road. We tried the chicken nachos and had them add guacamole. They were absolutely delicious and there is enough to easily feed 3-4 people. They put regular cheese but also add their beer cheese...SO GOOD. Then we tried the Churro dessert...oh my goodness...the churros were crispy, but also light and fluffy all at the same time! And they definitely do not skimp out on the cinnamon and sugar. They paired so well with their ice cream. We are so glad we stopped in on a Sunday afternoon before heading back home. Our waitress was very attentive, kept our waters filled, and the restaurant had a nice social buzz going...not too loud with plenty of different entertainment options on their many TVs. We will definitely be back when we are in the area.

    Humus wrap with lentil soup
    Karen L.

    Food and service are consistently good. Been to this restaurant several times and have yet to be disappointed. We went for lunch during the weekday around 12 and were seated right away. They have patio seating so we sat outside. From the hostess to our server, everyone was friendly. We ordered the lunch combo. My friends got the humus wrap with the soup of the day (lentil soup) and I got the 1/2 coup sandwich (crispy chicken) and the soup as well. We also ordered fries to share. Everything was very tasty and well seasoned. Loved the crispiness of the fries. Usually lentil soup is a hit or miss but this definitely was a hit. Expect the restaurant to get a little loud and crowded during the weekends but otherwise it's usually a pleasant experience.

    Absolutely delicious.

    First visit - 1/22/26 3PM - 4PM Food: I had to eat light on my first visit so I ordered the fish and chips. It was just okay, nothing special. Their pretzel was terrific. The brownie, however, was incredible -- easily the best brownie I've ever had. Service: The server was very attentive and friendly. I wish I remembered her name (Latina). She did a great job. Second visit - 2/27/26 3PM - 4PM Food: The pastrami sandwich was really good, though I wish it had a little more meat. The fried zucchini was excellent and they have some of the best ranch I've had!. The kitchen is clearly doing solid work. Service: The service the second time was disappointing. The hostess who seated us had a terrible attitude (Angry looking). She looked completely miserable and like she didn't want to be there. My waitress (Caucasian) left dirty plates sitting on the table and never once offered refills. She came off snobbish and acted like she didn't care about the people she was serving. On the way out, there was what appeared to be a new server (Caucasian) standing near the exit saying goodbye to customers as they left. When my kids and I walked out, she just stared at us and said nothing. Meanwhile, she was acknowledging other customers. It honestly made me wonder if it was because we weren't white. I can't stand servers who act like they're better than the people they're waiting on. That kind of attitude ruins the whole experience. It's a shame because the food is good, but service like that drives customers away. If that's the standard there, I probably won't be going back.

    The Local Tuna Melt and The Chicken Avocado Salad Excellent!!
    Pirate E.

    Everything we have ordered from here has been so fresh and flavorful! We love Nancy, she is so delightful and on point! Would love to be here for the live music but enjoy the background music. Absolutely recommend this place!

The chicken parm is delicious and served on a hefty serving of spaghetti (enough for lunch). We ordered meat sauce on the parm as they have very good meat sauce.

He was taking orders, making pizzas, helping customers, and keeping everything moving as best as one person possibly could. What disappointed me wasn't the service--it was seeing a few customers complain and criticize someone who was clearly giving 100% effort under very difficult circumstances. People need to remember that sometimes businesses are short-staffed, and employees are human beings doing the best they can.

    In all honesty, I'm not sure how I feel about this pizza. I didn't love it, but I don't hate it…read moreeither. I ordered a small Curry Masala Paneer and it was just okay. The paneer was incredibly dry, so I'm glad I ordered extra sauces to go with it. When you think of Indian Paneer, you think of the softness from it coming in the Tikka sauce, but that is not what was going on here. I would have liked it better without the Paneer. The actual pizza was different than anything I've ever had and I appreciated that. They did unfortunately forget my cilantro, which is also okay, because cilantro is like it's own food group at my house. Always have plenty of it, so I was able to remedy that situation, quickly. I also ordered the veggie samosas. Not a fan. Very greasy, mushy on the inside and not a lot of spices involved. Needless to say, I'm glad I tried it and they have a really great crust, so I would order a different type of pizza, if I order pizza from here again. Also, if you're ordering the white sauce, please know it's just ranch dressing. Not great with curry.

    I went here for a birthday get-together and overall had a great experience. The service was good…read moreand the food was tasty. Their drinks were especially yummy, and the ambiance in the early evening felt relaxed and family-friendly, which we appreciated. As the night went on, the vibe definitely shifted -- the music got louder and people started dancing, turning it more into a lively, party atmosphere. It was fun to see the energy pick up, just something to keep in mind if you're going with kids or looking for a quieter dinner. Overall, a fun spot with good food, solid service, and a great vibe depending on what kind of night you're looking for!

Last night (Saturday), my wife and I came back for date night. We had already eaten and planned to just grab drinks... but the smell of the pizza changed our plans. We're self-proclaimed pizza connoisseurs. I take my pizza seriously -- at home I work on perfecting my dough and sauce to make both true New York-style and Buenos Aires-style pies. My barber had also been telling me for a while that this place is legit. He even met the owner and said he's incredibly passionate about every detail that goes into making a great pizza. After finally trying it, I get it. We ordered a plain cheese with basil, and it was outstanding. A true New York-style pie. The dough had the perfect texture, the underside had that beautiful leopard spotting, the sauce-to-cheese ratio was dialed in, and the cheese was clearly high quality. We finished the whole thing without hesitation. The vibe is super cool. My wife kept saying she couldn't believe we were still in Santa Clarita -- it felt more like being over the hill in WeHo. Service was great too. Our waitress, Amber, was friendly and attentive. And to those complaining about the no-modifications rule -- trust the process. They've clearly put serious thought into crafting their pies. We'll definitely be back.
