“Thhheeeee absolute BEST pizza on the west coast HANDS DOWN!! Im from Brooklyn, NY and they definitely brought the authentic expirence and taste from home!!! I bring all my friends here! This is one of my happy places! Food-10 Service-10 Location-10 Price-10 😀“

“Came to TNT on the recommendation of a local and holy f*** balls I was blown away. If I had the disposable income I’d buy a private jet and fly to San Diego to eat here once a week and fly home, my carbon foot print would look like a slice of their pizza and I would okay with it cause my belly and soul would be content. Every pizza I have after this will be a disappointment to me.“

“Ok, I am from NY and love pizza. I am not a NYC pizza snob though and welcome all iterations of 'za! I have to say that this pizza is probably the best I have ever had of its type. They are "Roman" slices, meaning focaccia crust. Variety of slice options are insane with creative combinations that are not only imaginative, but insanely delicious. Slices are cooked upon ordering for supreme freshness. I especially like the Lussuria - prosciutto, black pepper, mashed potato, mozzarella and olive oil. (I NEVER thought I would like mashed potato on a slice, but it's insanely good.) The help here is amazing as well. Caesar was working the oven and he gave great suggestions and explained the product well. Very inviting and definitely steered me in the right direction. Need gluten free? They got it! Will make a GF slice for you right on the spot. I challenge anyone to have just one slice. I had to go back for 2 more. Enjoy!“

“If you are looking for a true Italian experience in San Diego, look no further than Vinarius! We worked with Giuseppe (owner) to host our wedding celebration here back in March, 2023. From the beginning, he was amazing to work with. Incredibly positive and accommodating from the start, we couldn’t have asked for more. The wedding ceremony was planned to be outside and of course, it rained that day. Guiseppe and his staff went above and beyond to accommodate us, allowed us to have the small ceremony inside the restaurant on short notice and made an incredible meal to follow. Our guests were blown away and we couldn’t have been happier. We recommend Vinarius to everyone we know and that is thanks to Giuseppe and his awesome staff. Grazie mille!“

“We ordered delivery, received within 1 hour of ordering. Meat lovers Sicilian style. Slightly overcooked and burnt on the bottom, but flavor and was fine. Texture was a bit too crunchy but still well within edible standards.

We also requested napkins and plates, but those were not delivered with the food. No extra cost on those, so not receiving them didn't mean we were out any money. Just inconvenient.“

“Great food and great service! Food was fresh and expertly prepared! Probably the best service I have ever experienced and the place was busy at the time we were there!!“

“We go here at least once per week and don’t get tired of it because the food is good and they have a large menu. It’s great especially on nights they have live music.“

“Vegetarian options: Ask Sam, a kitchen wizard, to vegetize your ‘za & he’ll dazzle ya. My chow chow, Stella & I roll by the PB shop every day & she laps the always fresh, cool water — not just one, but 2, fresh bowls, show how they care for the doggos (on the patio) too. Mega-friendly vibe. Fun merch.“

“I am visiting from Washington state and read about The Friendly in an article. I saw that it was close. and thought it would be great to check out. I am so thankful I did. It was absolutely amazing. 10000000/10 would recommend!!“

“I love this place the pizza is amazing!“

“Excellent food and the service was splendid.“

“Super recomendable, la comida deliciosa y muy buen servicio 👌“

“Great food. Fantastic spot inside UTC“

“Food was amazing ambiance was great! Only thing is server was rude! When we called him over to take our order he left in 10 seconds as we were debating on what appetizers to get last minute he was honestly very rude the whole time and was honestly the only unpleasant thing.“

“Amazing food and a testament to being a good citizen of our planet.“

“I thought the pizza was really good, though it should have been reheated before serving. We had pepperoni, but there were a lot of other options you can order by the slice. Seating inside was limited but it seems like there is a back patio option?“

“Recomiendo todo Es un súper lugar cómodo ,bendecido Su personal y su comida Es lo máximo Sus bebidas no hay comparación ,su personal de la barra es súper Cada vez que tengo la bendición de estar en ese lugar me hacen sentir muy especial Todo absolutamente todo lo recomiendo Gracias CATANIA“

“Ordered pizza thin crust. Taste was great but failed the stiff crust test. This on you pizza makers. 12 inch pie takes slightly less than one ladle of sauce. Put a little less cheese in the middle. Then the crust stays flat when you pick it up. Otherwise , you pick up the piece and all the toppings fall on the plate.“

“Such a wonderful vegan oasis in the San Fernando Valley! As locals know vegan offerings in the valley are limited compared with the rest of the city. I am so happy that I found this place I will be coming here often! Great food and atmosphere all around!“

“Absolutely Outstanding Experience at Harland Brewing & URBN Pizza! I recently hosted a birthday party for about 60 people at the Harland Brewing outdoor patio, and I can't say enough great things about the experience. We ordered pizza from URBN next door, which was a huge hit. The food was delicious, came out quickly, and paired perfectly with Harland’s excellent selection of beers.

I would highly recommend Harland Brewing and URBN Pizza for any event or gathering. Fantastic staff, great atmosphere, and top-notch hospitality.“

“Everyone enjoyed the pasta & pizza“

“Place is fire. So many beers to choose from you don't even know where to start. I'd say ask the bartenders to pick your drinks for you. It's funner that way.“

“Vero italiano a San Diego!!! Posto easy ma molto accogliente e curato; Personale super accogliente ed amichevole; Cibo super buono e davvero italiano Consigliata la focaccia di loro produzione e spettacolare spaghetto alla pescatora!! Top A presto“

“This pizza was very delicious and flavorful! The reason why we took a star away was because we waited over 45 minutes for our buffalo chicken wings. This was on Saturday 03/15/25 around 8pm so we were there waiting till their closing time. They gave us 6 extra wings to compensate, so that was considerate. The ambiance and music is good too!“

“I want to here for my friend's birthday this past Saturday night. It is an Italian and Steakhouse blend restaurant. I wasn't really sure what to expect although they had good reviews online. This place exceeded my expectations. If I'm being frank, I think this is the best restaurant I've gone to this whole year and I dine out to fine dining restaurants ALOT! Every appetizer to remain coarse and dessert was amazing. And it didn't stop there the ambience of this place is very dark Chic elegant with a lot of character, it looks like it would be loud but actually the volume is so perfectly balanced! Are waitress was so nice, super tentative, and very informative through our whole entire dinner experience. For appetizers we started with a lamb chop lollipop per person, sourdough bread and calamari. The Lamb Chop was so amazing we said we would come back and just order a few of those for a meal! The dip they had for the calamari had a lemon zest which was so well-balanced with every bite. They also include fried green olives with a calamari which I've never experienced before and me and my husband were obsessed with! I ordered the ribeye for my main entree my husband ordered the New York strip and a few others ordered ribeye and steak as well. Somehow we found it in us to order dessert, my husband and I shared the tiramisu cheesecake which was astonishly amazing! The cheesecake itself is definitely made fresh into the traditional recipe. I was very impressed. Since we were celebrating two birthdays but they brought out a little espresso cup filled with ice cream and candles for the birthday people. I will definitely be coming back here, I was overjoyed by my experience!“

“We have came twice from Denver Colorado and we loveeeeee this pizza! Mike is so welcoming as everyone else is please open one in Denver!!!“

“My wife and I came in last night before the padres game. Awesome atmosphere and location. The cold IPA was honestly the best beer I’ve had in a long time. Brandon the bartender was super friendly and helpful. Definitely check this place out if you’re in the area“

“Good service, fresh and delicious food, and reasonable price Definitely will be back .“

“First time here, visiting from Portland, OR. I knew they had "Gluten-free" listed on their menu, as newly diagnosed with Celiac Disease, it's some comfort that I might be able to eat something. I let the host know when our group arrived. After being seated, our server came up and confirmed with me that I had Celiac Disease and let me know which items were Celiac safe and how they were prepared. The Gluten-free gnocchi were fantastic, as was the Burrata appetizer. Thank you so much. Our Triplet Birthday group absolutely enjoyed ourselves.“

“Great food! spacious dining place.“

“Friendly staff and great food. A good place to watch sports.“

“The pizza is absolutely phenomenal here! The crust is crispy, chewy, and thin but sturdy enough to support whatever you choose to top it with. The Caesar salad was refreshing and perfectly dressed. The service has been fast and friendly every time we’ve stopped by - once we tried it we were hooked! Love that everything is halal, take all your friends here❤️“

“Usually like their pizzas. Seems like there is no much flavor like before. No taste of spices. But they are very quike and curtious“

“Horrible imposition by a large party that seemed to think they were entitled to the run of the whole restaurant on a busy Sunday, bullying neighboring customers, and taking their pictures including everyone around them. Management did not take sufficient action. Ruined what would have been a delightful meal in a lovely setting with fabulous service.“

“We hired Criscito Pizza for our engagement party, which hosted around 65 guests, and it was a fantastic choice! The team provided a wonderful selection of pizzas, each one warm, fresh, and delicious. Our guests loved the variety, and there was something for every taste. They went above and beyond with the setup, providing all the necessary flatware, plates, and a beautiful table arrangement that made everything look organized and inviting. Their service was seamless and added so much to our celebration. Highly recommend them for any event!“

“Setting the Standard in every bite, this place is the real deal. No frills, polite service, they know everyone's name (so it seems). There is no secret here, the product they produce is a labor of love and it shows in every... single... bite...“

“Great food, great service. Can't go wrong here.“

“I went to have dinner with my family. we ordered the family deal which came with an appetizer a large salad a large Alfredo pasta to share and a large pizza we order half al pastor and half meat parade we were 5 and we all left full everything was delicious.Owner was veryhelpful and the food was great 👍we found our new spot“

“This is a great local spot, especially if your looking for pizza by the slice! Great prices for premium ingredients and interesting and innovative toppings! The kind and friendly owner really has a knack for flavors, and is super welcoming. There is also an excellent selection of beer on tap and craft soda.“
