What guests say

“Truly the best pizza around”

  • The name says it all. Truly the best pizza around. We are just outside of the delivery parameters and will choose to drive here and pick up instead of getting delivery elsewhere. The BBQ chicken and buffalo chicken are two of our favs and make sure to get some ranch on the side!! So good.

  • This truly is the best pizza I've had. With this great of a quality product, location is just icing on the cake, but that is amazing too. I would eat here everyday if I could. Hopefully someday they'll come out to southern AZ.

  • It is a great pizza place. Close to the ocean. they have an open air vibe and the people working their are very helpful. just ask them for anything you need and they will take care of you. Also there is a great liquor store right next door if you need to get beer to go with your pizza...

  • Awesome surprise! Family camping at the beach, and didn't know anything about this place other than we could walk to it. Grabbed a torpedo sub to share for lunch and it was so delicious, we decided to come for dinner. Really love the way they do the menu, as well as all the options...
