House Combo (top) & Hawaiian (bottom)
PJ D.

Solid pizza spot located in Gualala, def worth trying if you are visiting. If you can, I'd recommend calling in advance then picking up your order as they get busy. But sometimes it's hard to get your call to go through as they get busy (especially on holiday weekends and dinners) so you might have to plan to just drive up, order, then go back at quoted time for pick up (or just wait for dine in). They don't skimp out on toppings and the crust is crunchy and on the thicker side.

A large sausage and mushroom pizza
Alan C.

We have been packing and moving from our rental to our new home in The Sea Ranch and given the chaos and holidays coming up we just wanted something quick and easy on a week night before Thanksgiving. We haven't ordered a pizza from these folks in a while so we dialed up a large cheese with mushrooms and sausage and weren't disappointed. Solid effort once again. Worth trying and glad we have a decent pizza joint in the area. Well done !!

Large Mendocino pizza to-go ($38)
Jillian P.

Pizza ready for pickup in 15 minutes. Called in an order for pickup on a Saturday afternoon around 3:30pm and the pizza was hot out of the oven and ready for me by 3:45pm! The best comfort food for a lazy weekend! We ordered a large Mendocino pizza ($38 without tip) to-go. The staff were friendly and had our pie waiting for us upon arrival. We are not a fan of red-sauce pizzas, and Upper Crust Pizzeria offers a number of sauceless specials. The Mendocino has tomatoes, garlic, chicken, artichoke hearts, fresh cut basil, and mozzarella. I recommend ordering a side of ranch to dip your crust (if you're into that)! Definitely a great spot for those days you don't want to cook ;)

Side Caesar salad (all premade in a fridge)

Came in on a Saturday around 7pm. The restaurant is quaint and looks like it's family owned. We ordered the house combo size medium. (32$) The employee at the register was fast and efficient. She told us it would be about 30minutes for our pizza. There were many customers coming in to pickup their orders. It was very busy : ) Our pizza was ready as promised. It was piping hot and had a lot of toppings. Just as good as I remembered. Thank you : )

Get the thin crust! Soooo good! Also note that there can be an hour or more wait for a pizza on a Saturday night. We called ahead.

My husband and I walked into Vue at 630 on a Saturday night. We were told the wait would be one…read morehour for a two top, so we decided to go elsewhere. As soon as we walked out to the car, we changed our minds and decided to go back in. The host said "let me see if I can find you a table really quick". Fortunately for us, he was able to seat us right away :) Food was delicious! We were very impressed. We ordered fried calamari and the flat bread to start. The sauces on the calamari were incredible. I ate the clam chowder as my entree -- amazing!! My husband had the salmon special, which he loved. Ambience and view were amazing as well as service. We will definitely be back next time we are in the area!

I read that the average price for 2 people to eat there was between $50 and $100. I thought they…read morewere exaggerating . I looked at the menu and we're talking hamburgers fish and chips etc. it's a very casual place, not white tablecloth fancy dining at all, very casual. We each ordered fish and chips. $29 each! It comes with French fries and an itsy bitsy 1 oz. container of coleslaw. Period. It comes with two big pieces of fish, but the breading is about 8-in thick. It was very greasy and way overcooked. I was not all impressed with the food. The service was good and the view is a million dollar view with a fresh flower on the table. We only had water to drink, no cocktails, nothing else. nothing special. Out bill came to something like $76. I would not go back there. I could walk around the Pelican Bluff coastal trail for the amazing view.

You ever just stop someplace because you need to waste time? We were waiting to check into our VRBO…read morerental when we walked into the Cove Azul. We sat at the bar and ordered a drink. The bartender, Scott, engaged us in the usual small talk. But we quickly observed that he was genuinely interested in us as human beings! We stayed much longer than we intended and had a bite to eat. The food we had was delicious and competitively priced. We came back the next day for the great food and the wonderful staff! We had the very best fish and chips we've ever experienced while we watched whales migrate north through the scenic windows overlooking the Pacific Ocean! Once again, we felt like we were at home and were treated like family. This is truly an amazing place where the staff is warm and inviting and the food is made with passion! Shout-out to Scott and Heather! You made our stay in Gualala extra special and we are looking forward to visiting again soon!

!!Don't waste your money here if you already spent the money to go on vacation!!…read more - Poor service (our waitress was lovely but she had little help. We got bread but no salad and had to wait awhile for our check) - Bad food, I ordered fish and chips thinking that it would be a seafood staple but there was such much batter that the fish was undercooked inside. The fries didn't have salt and looked kind of gross - Weird atmosphere, you can see the beach view from inside if you look over the heads of all the older locals. There was a dead fly in the corner of the window I was seated at. Overall not worth the money if you already spent a considerable amount of money just to be out in Gualala, like we did.
