Reviews for The Oven Pizzeria in Seaside, CA
Got the lunch, special two slices of pizza and a Diet Coke for 10 bucks which seemed a little bit pricey. The pizza was decent... and the crust was cooked. Perfect also. Read more
We?ve ordered from here before on a Friday night and it was really good. But tonight?s a Thursday and we picked up a half baked... horrible rendition of the ?mushroom magic? (supposed to have portobello mushrooms too and I?ve been excited to try this one). Itsucks when you pay 50 bucks for pizza that leaves you half baked?aka disappointed. I gave it a 3 because the first time weordered The Tahoe and it was fire ?????maybe it was just a lazy night for these chefs..? Read more
Heavenly. ohh where do I start? The sauce - Fresh? Definitely. Authentic? The word itself simply doesn?t do this sauce the... justice it deserves. It holds that slight acidity and bitter fruitiness of the crushed tomato, but is broken down and heartyenough to embrace an onslaught of toppings if it had to. In the same breath, it?s light enough to be dusted with a touch ofherbs and not outshine any of the delicate flavors. It triggers sensations of an old world Italian heritage. In my mind I canactually hear Nona yelling at her nipotini to stop fighting while she slaves over the stove on Sunday. The crust was yetanother ode to the old world. Thin but with integrity. Crunchy first and then just resistant enough to the tear before itsuccumbed to the chew. Finally, a flood of the soft rich yeasty flavor that could?ve stood alone as a masterpiece. Truely asubstantial inclusion to the artistry that was this pizza. You can?t beat the fresh mozzarella plopped like islands of goeycreaminess, each one blazed over the top just sufficient to coax a bubble or two of char. I?d call it the perfect amount- justenough to ensure each slice got a taste of the goodness, but not so much as to cause the feeling of lethargia and activelyclogging arteries. Finally a sprinkle of chopped fresh leaf basil and feta cheese, and an ever so slight drizzle of olive oilto really bring all the flavors together. Add to that a short wait time, excellent service, and a cold beer? I tell you ittruely felt like heaven. I told my wife that it?s a pizza worth moving to this side of the country for. I don?t say thatlightly. We?ll see if she bites. Thanks again, The Oven. Ci Vediamo Dopo. I?m really looking forward to it. Read more
Cheese filled fried ravioli were amazing asking with the garlic knots! Can't go wrong with their pizza, great balance of sauce... and toppings kept even our picky eaters happy! Read more
We just moved to the 831.. a week in and this place made us feel right at home. We had the thin crust California style pizza and... Fat Lip on draft from English Ales...both were awesome!!! All I'll say is don't be shy..???????????????? Read more
First time having this pizza, salad and deep fried ravioli?s. This was the best. They ran out of zucchini and called. We... substituted the Raviolis and the sauce that came with the raviolis was the best I have ever had. Our new place!!!!? GREAT JOB!!! Read more
The kids working at this place are absolute workhorses! Stretching dough by hand, making things fresh! Even though it?s... relatively empty, the to-go orders seem to be flying in! I?d choose this place over nationally recognized chains every day ofthe week! Read more
It's all about the pie!!! The crust is AMAZING!! Had a west coast and east coast. Both were great, I did favor the west coast.... Tried one with sweet peppers, potatoes (yup, potatoes), a chipotle sauce....just so so good! The potatoes were sliced thin,and we're crisp from the oven. Never thought I would've liked it, but now, I might have troubles order anything else! Kids gotthe garlic knots, and again, fabulous. You can go wrong trying this place. It's a little small on the inside, but clean withfriendly service. Read more
