We ordered 2 large pizza’s the total came to $71.89. The order was in at 7:29 pm on Thursday 6/5/25. My wife called back again at 7:37 pm and talked to some young girl to ask them for plates, peppers and cheese. We called back at 9:10pm and the recording said they were closed and after looking at my bank account, I was charged for the pizza and never received it. We were staying at the Hilton on Ocean Blvd less than a half mile away.
As for your reply, my wife sat in the lobby waiting for you and had her phone also. We had no call and I asked the individual at the front desk and they said no one attempted to deliver any pizza, if they would have they would have delivered the pizza to our room there self. We should have received a phone call telling us you were not delivering our pizza. You may have good food but you have bad service.

This was my 2nd meal from Buono's and my first time eating in. It was a relaxing and lovely experience. We walked in around 5:45PM on a Sunday and we were greeted cheerily by the staff. There was plenty of seating available in the front of the restaurant, in the back, and in the outdoor patio area.
We luckily made it in time for Happy Hour so we ordered a side of parmesan garlic fries to start.
4/5 If you're really craving fries, you can order but there were pretty basic with a lack of parmesan garlic flavoring. The texture was crispy and well cooked though. Bonus points for giving lots of ketchup to eat it with.
We ordered a medium pizza and full pasta dish to share.
5/5 The rigatoni pink sauce with pancetta and mushrooms was sooooooo tasty! They did not skimp on the pancetta. A very flavorful and satisfying dish. Would order again!
5/5 Our pasta came with large fluffy soft garlic knots. Perfect to soak up the extra pink sauce from the pasta.
5/5 Buono's is known for their pizza so highly recommend ordering one when you're here. The dough is fluffy, crispy, and on the dense side. The red sauce is well seasoned and not too acidic. We got ham, mushrooms, and bell peppers for toppings.
We were stuffed with plenty of leftovers to space. We walked here but there is a parking garage around the corner where you can get parking validated. Will be back to try the lasagna and other pasta dishes. A great place for groups!

BY FAR THE BEST PASTA IVE EVER HAD. The fettuccine Alfredo with GRILLED chicken leaves me speechless every time. The only thing I wish is that they had longer hours so I could selfishly get pasta for a midnight snack lol but the portion is HUGE. Easily a shareable size or next day lunch. Love love love this place. Their pizza is really good too.

Online Menu says buffet Monday thru Friday but in reality it’s Wednesday through Friday. Update your online menu so people don’t drive out there to find out it’s not available. You don’t care about your customer, they won’t go back.

Took an hour and 15 minutes or so for delivery and we ended up with a super lopsided pizza that looked rushed. The crust is usually large on their pizzas but this one was more than 1/3rd crust. I usually order from the Willow location but thought I'd try the Ocean location. Bad choice, won't do that again.
First time here. Good size dine in area. Service was great. Place for regulars for sure. Ordered the Minestrone soup that came with bread sticks, pizza was cooked perfectly. It was quiet and peaceful. Will definitely return.

I made an order at 8:19 pm and waited more than an 1hr so I called 2 times and told me the driver was on its way waited until 9:55pm and I got a notification that my order was cancel without letting me know, that's unprofessional from the employee's. And by the way this was my first time ordering and had a super bad experience. Never again would I order from your pizza place,super disappointed

I live in San Pedro where the original Buono's exist. The difference is night and day but then again my visit to this location happened on a slow day, so I understand the kickback appeal. However once the food came out, I was indeed a happy customer. Yes the original location is way better, but this location has it's charm as well ☺️
