Tony's Pizzaria Surfers Point, Ventura Beach

The most amazing place to eat in Ventura. Love all the additions the owners have done to this amazing place. The pizza is top notch. Crust was amazing and the sauce was flavorful. The use of fresh ingredients takes the pizza over the top. Will always come back here when in town.

Vip parking if u ride you motorcycle here. Great pizza, huge slice. Awesome service. Super friendly staff. Dog friendly...outdoor dining, great live music! Must stop if your in town. Im for sure bring my friends family and riding brothers back here asap!

Very cool atmosphere, I just love it!!! Pizza is awesome!!! Thin crust pizza and fresh ingredients. You can taste the oregano in the tomato sauce on the pizza 🤤💕 100% recommended!!!

A Ventura institution. How to explain the joy of finding this place on a rainy February night after an evening out with friends, have twisted, all joy-filled and laughing and hungry. Nothing satisfied in that moment quite like a piece of pizza doused in neon and California kitsch. Absolutely magic.

Tony’s was such a vibe. We came on a Sunday night over Memorial Day weekend and happened to catch Reggae Night, which made the whole experience even better. I actually spotted the place while driving by and decided to stop on a whim. It felt like a true locals’ hangout. People of all ages were out dancing, and it was clear a lot of them knew each other. It was so much fun just sitting back, soaking in the atmosphere, and getting swept up in the music. Honestly, it ended up being one of the highlights of my weekend. You order food and drinks at the counter, and luckily there wasn’t much of a line when we arrived. It was definitely busy, though, so the wait for our pizza was about 45 minutes. We didn’t mind at all because the live music and people-watching made the time fly. We ordered the Tony’s Special, which was super generous in size and toppings. The pizza was delicious. One of the best parts was this older gentleman walking around checking in on everyone and clearing tables. He was incredibly kind. When we got up to dance, he passed by later and said, “I wondered where you went,” which made us smile. He remembered us and could tell we were new, which made the experience feel even more personal. I really appreciate places that take the time to notice and welcome newcomers. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in the area.

I was hired to do face and bodypaint designs. Super friendly and accompanying staff! Who had a very talented steel drummer/singer - Brad Winchell - play classic reggae tunes. The guests were also very pleasant, generous and appreciative of my art! Would work here again in a heartbeat! Gave the food 3 stars only because I am a plant-based eater and they serve dairy and meat full pizzas.

I have repeatedly stopped at this business to find their doors locked during their business hours. Right now they’re saying that the rain is a problem, but it’s not raining and it’s partly cloudy. I can see stars. And the guy that I talk to is just like extremely condescending and invalidating when they’re still here, but the door is locked. Of course I’m 69. I’m not 25 little blonde bimbo so I’m sure the treatment would be quite different for that person. It just disgust me that’s all. I can say there goes another person just going by but went on his way because the doors locked. The only reason I stop here is because it’s convenient on my way home, but I’m just not gonna bother anymore. I just spent some time reading reviews, and I read the review about the little girl with celiac disease and how they would not let her bring her own food because they have nothing on their menu that she could eat. As I said in my post, it’s convenient so I may have stopped there again, but after reading that I have no desire to do business with a company like that that’s how they treated me in validating and rude, but nothing compared to what they did to that little girl what a despicable reputation.

We went for Halloween and had a blast, the food was really good as well. Go and have fun!

Downtown hotspot with tables. a beautiful open air patio and a stage, often occupied by various styles of cover bands. With two & three-slice meals and salads, in addition to their standard whole pizzas, Tony's has great pizza for great prices. There are a variety of beers of course, but also some wines and cute canned cocktails! There is limited parking in a little dirt lot off to the side, where single stall bathrooms are also located. Place your order at the window and get a text when it's ready on the hot plate, napkins and cutlery self serve. Definitely check this place out, very chill spot to catch live music, grab a slice and beer!

First time here and we happened to come on a Friday night when it was karaoke night. It was such a great time. We were so entertained! I ordered the Hang Ten which is 2 pizza slices and a small chef salad. I should have skipped the salad because it just wasn't worth it to me. The pizza slices were HUGE. 2 slices = 4 normal slices. I got one Hawaiian and 1 sausage and pepperoni. I honestly enjoyed the Hawaiian more than the other. The sausage and pepperoni was greasier but still really enjoyable the pizza crust is thin and tastes so fresh! We parked in the back parking lot behind the entrance. It wasn't too busy when we arrived but got the last parking spot. The only negative I have to say is they were sold out of several items so pizza choices were limited. Come for the pizza but stay for the entertainment.

Super causal spot with lots of outdoor seating, parking lot, and a space of live music. Their pizza is solid- The slices are large and the dough is soft and chewy. They have a couple salad options and wings. Good pizza stop right off the freeway. Owner/manager is also very friendly!

Driven past this joint so many times we thought why not pick up some pizza for a late dinner? Big mistake... their pizza is sooo thin and greasy. Almost all of the toppings slid off when I picked it up. No thanks, we'll just stick to toppers

Place advertised as having thin "crispy" pizza - pizza is supper soggy, and oily/ no pizza integrity and a zero on the flop scale - worst pizza I've ever had. I called to talk to the restaurant and they told me "yeah that's how we make our pizza! If searching for a late night pizza spot don't let yourself down with this disappointment -

Back story about this spot. My hubby is a truck driver and passes this spot maybe 3 or 4 times a month. I always like to see his routes and what he see's so we decided to take a day trip to Ventura County to see the sites. He's always been curious about this place so we stopped for dinner. What a cute little gem sitting on the cornier or Thomson Blvd about a 5 minute walk from the beach. When you walk up to the restaurant you are totally taken back to a simpler time. It gives you surf shop vibes. There's only outdoor dining, but that's okay because they have plenty of heat lamps as well as fire pits. They have a stage for band performances which are probably on Friday and Saturday. They also have cute games to play while your wait. Service was quick because the menu is simple. Pizza and salad. They also have wine as well as bottled soft drinks as well as fountain drinks. The Pizza was decent. I enjoyed the toppings more than anything. I think it could've been cooked longer. It was a little greasy but still decent. Crust was thin and crunchy. I will say this warmed up in the over on broil the next day it was perfect. I'm glad my Mister got his curiosity satisfied and we had a great day and night.

I was craving pizza for dinner so we called ahead to order a medium pizza with half pepperoni and half hawaiian. We also ordered some buffalo wings. They told us it would take 30 minutes. We arrived 30 minutes later and the pizza was ready but they said they needed 5 minutes to pour the sauce on the wings. 5 minutes later, the wings were still not ready. I think we ended up waiting an extra 10 minutes just for the wings. Not sure what was the point of us calling ahead to place an order and them telling us 30 minutes if we still had to wait when we arrived. The food was delicious though! I really liked the Hawaiian pizza but my husband liked the pepperoni more. The pizza was pretty oily though... they put the pizza in a paper bag and by the time we went back to our hotel, the oil was seeping through the bag.

My favorite place to be when it is warm. The have the best bands in all of Ventura County and LA county play there. Management is awesome too!

Ordered the sausachito and olive pizza to go. It's my favorite pizza anywhere. The cheese is terrific but I absolutely love the tomato sauce, very tomatoery . Crispy crust. It's the best

Absolute rip-off. We dropped $60 for pizza that was downright awful. Bland, greasy, and nowhere near worth the price. To add insult to injury, they charge $1 per tiny parmesan packet like it's liquid gold. Who does that? We also ordered a salad, which showed up with zero dressing -- just a pile of plain lettuce thrown in a box. No flavor, no effort, nothing. Between the sky-high prices, cheap nickel-and-diming, and garbage food quality, this place is a joke. Do yourself a favor and spend your money literally anywhere else in Ventura.

My friends and i produced an event at the VC Fairgrounds last weekend and must have ordered around 80+ XL pizzas over 7 days or so between us all. My favorite is pepperoni with fresh jalapenos. Nice crunchy thin crust slightly chared. Outstanding, friendly service and amazing New York Style pizza. By far, my favorite pizzaria in Ventura County. Great atmoshere near the beach and its a live music venue. Thank you Bruce Barios and staff.

4/27/25 2 Toppings Pizza (Sardine and Mushroom): Dev - A Meal - A ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Total - 4/5

The best pizza in town! The crust is crunchy almost taste like Neapolitan pizza. They always have a long line in the evenings. Live music and beach vibes. If you don't plan to eat there make sure to order at least 30 minutes in advance. Pick up is simple and fast.

SERVICE: Our first time there and man the service and experience was amazing! Outdoor seating, positive vibes, live music, games, heating lamps, and the customer service was on point. No complaints. Met the owner who I learned is a DJ - he's amazing. Reasonable enough parking for about 15-20 vehicles. You can catch the tunes walking buy as people waved from the other side of the fence. FOOD: Enjoyed the pizza (a hair salty for me) and the wings too were good. Drink was cool too and grabbed a bottled water just because. WELL: We're going to be regulars and you should too! * Shoutout to Colin/David for register/customer service * Get the 50! lol

Completely rude and unprofessional staff. Wife showed up with our kids (10/9/4 year olds) thinking this was a family friendly and a good place for the kids to eat.....we were wrong.

Pizza hot made to order. Handmade by the taste of it. Awesome custom numbering on to go package, thought it was a nice touch. Heat lamps for the outdoor seating. Fun ambiance, stage and outdoor games for the kids and adults alike. Setting up for a private party so it seems like THE spot. Warm welcoming owners and staff. Just popped by walking distance from Ventura Beach and Fairgrounds which is ideal due to the paid parking situation. Although they do have a back parking lot of their own. Outdoor restrooms. The only complaint is there is no basil topping option. Overall a perfect experience for a quick dinner to go!

We spent $65 on pizza and it was cold and unacceptably late. They charges $4 for four Smart & final parmesan cheese packets and gave us a salad with no dressing. This is literally the worst pizza I could imagine in Ventura and it's a low bar.

This is going to start off rough. But give it a chance. I'm glad I did. Took the train to Ventura from Union Station. Tony's is an easy walk from the train stop. It's an outdoor experience with live music and great ambiance. As I sat down, I was organizing my bag. The business section of the train provides snacks and alcohol. I was on the phone and looking at what I still had in my goodie sack. The host who helps monitor the area approached me informing me that I cannot open the alcohol (wine) that I had. Being on the phone I simply said, "okay, thank you" and I continued to clean out my bags. He stood at the table and then proceeded to pick up my wine bottles! I pulled them back from him and asked him not to touch my things. He continued telling me that I needed to put them away. I hung up my phone and told him to give me a moment. He had JUST told me about the (very common) policy and my intention was not to drink them but only organizing. He walked away but continued to "watch me" from his post. When I put the mini bottles back into my bag, he said, "thank you" as he was still watching me. I've never felt more judged, belittled, or treated like a child than at that moment. It was a horrible first impression and I hadn't even tried the pizza yet! I was so bothered I spoke to the manager. I told her that I understand the policy and saw that they sell alcohol--including wine. I know enough about dining out to know you don't "BYOB" or expect to pay a corkage fee--which they have and is $10. Anyways, manager was great. Returned to my table, pizza came, and was pretty good. It's super greasy, but that's what kinda made it yummy! Minutes later, the same gentleman came to my table with an apology and complimentary wine. I appreciated the gesture and respect the fact that he apologized. It's never an easy thing to do. In the end, it turned out to be a great find. The live music was fabulous. The band was, The Cousins. Which was ironic because the host's name tag also said, "Cousin...". As the evening came the patio lights turned on along with the many patio heaters. Despite the rough start to the experience, I turned out to be a great spot. I'm glad I found it and will definitely return--without my train wine! There's tons of free parking on the side gravel lot. And they are dog friendly which is always a plus for me. I think the property is wheelchair accessible too. I forgot to mention that they have delicious shaved ice too! Next time I'm trying one of those!

Always good food, always wonderful service. Clean bathroom! They have certainly expanded since my last visit; but the pizza is still good and the service is still wonderful! And isn't that all that matters?

Fun spot with live music near C St in Ventura! Lots of outdoor seating with heat lamps/fire pits for those cool evening and a luau aesthetic. Pizza was affordable for a slice ($5.50) and I thought it was alright, not too greasy - but my friend said hers was too salty and the crust was 'like a communion wafer'. They have beers, ciders, and wine; and we got to try these locally made in Ojai, all-natural hard ciders - the cucumber ginger was our favorite with the rose coming in second. Staff was very friendly and polite, but the BAND brought the experience over the top! Highly recommend "Something This Way Magic" if you see them!

This is a great spot for any occasion! The pizza is top-notch and the atmosphere is fun

Tony the Security Guard is AWESOME! He always has a spot ready for my Harley when my wife and I roll up. Bruce, give him a raise! Thank you Tony's Pizzeria for being a safe fun staple in our beautiful home of Ventura. Much love!

Great thin crust pizza! Felt a little chintzy to charge for every topping - maybe include 1 or 2 free. But I'll still go back.

I honestly only stopped here because I smelled the pizza as I walked by, and it smelled amazing. I got a single slice combo on my way back to the Amtrak train and was very happy with my purchase. It was around 5 pm on a Friday and I was first in line to the little walk up window. Very simple setup. Employees were all really chill and nice. And my slice was fresh and hot, ready in like 10-15 min. They also have a tiny bathroom which was very welcome. All the seating is outdoors, which I loved. And the patio is so cute. They have those adirondack chairs and a bunch of lawn games. Definitely good for families and groups. Nice vibes but I wouldn't really call it beachfront since it's after the fairgrounds, an overpass, and train tracks. But it's within walking distance of both the beach and downtown Ventura. I ate my slice on the train and was very happy! Def will be back on my next jaunt to Ventura!

Stopped by during the x games and it was packed. We were forewarned that a pizza would take 45 minutes which was no biggie. Our pretzel breadsticks came out in about 15 minutes. There was a mishap with the kitchen losing our pizza ticket but the staff was very apologetic and offered free beers while we waited for an expedited pizza. The pizza came out piping hot with a nice thin crunchy crust. Pizza was good and left us full without feeling overstuffed.

Customer service was a 2. The cashier rolled their eyes when another customer made a comment about how long they had to wait for 2-cheese slices of pizza. Service: we waited 30 minutes for our pizza. We waited an additional 45 minutes for our wings which never came. When we went to ask for our order they told me that they made a mistake and the order was never placed. My option, was to wait another 40 minutes (while they had other wing orders in the oven) or get a refund. I chose the refund. I went to talk to "Cousin David" He said there was nothing he could do about it. Sent me to talk to owner. At this point we were frustrated and hungry. We left. Pizza: very greasy and crusty was cardboard (blan). We will not return nor recommend to anyone.

Cousin David hooked us up. Found us chairs and re lit the campfire. The Pizza was spectacular as was the Made West Pale. Shakey had a bunch of great dead tribute bands. All round good time at Tony's

Service and ambiance is really where it ends, pizza has some flop too big of a slice makes a Mess sauce is nothing special overall 6.2

Great place! Been here since 1959! One year, before I was born! All I had was a large bottle of Tony's Filtered Water. Tasted great! My roommate, caretaker, had a slice of pizza, so did our friend who was with us! Great food! Great service! Great outdoor atmosphere! Great prices! Store has been family owned, ever since!

Still great pizza but the service has become awful. Over a 30 minute wait for a slice. Please do better.

I can't tell you how many times I have passed by this place and wanted to try it out with no luck. Finally we got to stop by for dinner and I was very disappointed. The pizza was falling apart it was so soggy. My kids couldn't even hold it. They ate it with a knife and a fork. The salads were disappointing as well for $8 ... The mozzarella sticks were ok. The ambiance is great and I loved the huge outdoor seating area but the service was not so great. Careless cashier with no customer service skills.

Great place to hang out with friends! Perfect location steps away from the beach! JAKE is a handsome young man with a heartfelt personality and smile!

I am visiting my daughter and her family and we ate at Toni's tonight and it was amazing! The salad was so good and the pizza was amazing. But the very best part was the great service and attention that we got from Cousin David! He was so nice and helpful! He was great with the kids and even gave Madison a hat. We had a great time and can't wait for our next pizza fix! Thank you David for a great time. Tami Read Tucson. Az.

Bruce is amazing!! Nothing like a cold Fruit Punch Happy Dad and Tony's Pepperoni Pizza! Best Combo hands down

Always an AMAZING time at this place!!! NEVER DISAPPOINTED!!!! Place is always packed, great bands, I've met the best ppl here !!!! The owner always says hello, Jake the bartender always sweet..... cousin David has the best customer service... I'm convinced he's my real cousin!!

Gone are the days when the service was friendly family and the prices were good, and the pie wasnt a sopping wet oil pool on overbaked dry garbage crust. The legendary raves I gave this establishment up until a decade ago went right out to sea with the loss of "Tony Jr." No one there now is Abel to bake a decent pie, the ingredient quality now sux and the joke of a staff don't care since the tourists are who praise and keep them rolling. Anyone else still praising this rep-blackened greasy stain of a remnant of what once was, is an addict, owner, investor or pitiable fool who never had high quality New York style pizza in their lives. Don't even get me started on the Crayola makeover and idiotic overpricing.

Always wanted to try Tony's Pizzaria for years. Glad, I finally did and I wasn't disappointed. The pepperoni pizza is delicious along with the pretzels

Tony's Pizza is ALWAYS good! The family friendly environment with good food and good music creates a festive feel that always results in a Good Time! The "Startender" Jake is my favorite. He always provides excellent customer service with a smile!! Family Favorites: Classic pepperoni, the pretzel sticks and wings!

Every time I passed by this restaurant, I wanted to try but haven't had a chance. I like the beachy vibe of the restaurant. They have only outdoor seating. We ordered Tony's special pizza x-large, that's big pizza. Pizza tasted good, not the best pizza but still good. I don't drink sodas and unfortunately they don't have many non alcohol choices except sodas so I ordered Perrier. There are some toys and seems kids love them. This restaurant is close to the C street so maybe it's a good place for surfers to get something to eat after surfing. Also you can order online for pickup or delivery too. Online order: https://direct.chownow.com/order/4809/locations/6235 (chose pickup or delivery) The restaurant has a parking.

This spot has a great vibe and crowd. Hudson zipped back and forth working very hard all evening! Hudson for the win. Try the Hawaiian salad!

This no service, pizza spot reminds me of a good movie. Grease! My first and last time here! My wife said the pizza seems like it's not fresh and too much grease on the slices, IT's NOT FRESH! They make in advance and keep in a glass tank environment until you order a slice. Then they reheat! It was OK! I had bits of black charcoal all over the bottom of my pizza! Time to finally clean the dirty oven, Right? The lemonade was ok. 3*

Pizza was slightly burned. We got extra sauce which was on us but it just made the pizza soggy. Not too tasty

What a fun spot in Ventura to catch some live reggae! Pretty tasty pizzas too and good selection of beers on tap. Good service and very pet friendly.

I have the pleasure of working with a great kitchen staff. One in particular is Easton. He is focused on his job and does it with speed and efficiency! When he is working I always have confidence that things will be prepared well and pizza,apps and our other items he has prepared,will be properly presented! He is a huge asset to the staff and is willing to step in when and where needed. KUDOS to Easton

A fun place to get a slice of pizza or two while you boogie down with friends. Lots of fun to be had at this venue on a beautiful day

To start I ordered online. That's how they do delivery orders. My order gave me no estimate and after calling after waiting an hour I called my order took over an hour and a half to receive. The pizza is super bland. Go to little Caesars before you get this pizza. Also the ranch taste like sour cream. Tried supporting a local business but so disappointed. 107$ for 2 pizzas 2 small salads and Mozzarella sticks that was missing the the marina sauce. This place is more of a bar than a pizza restaurant. I do not recommend if you want pizza.

The music is pumping and the best pizzas. Personalized service makes you feel right at home. It's the perfect place to unwind and have a blast. Summers here are an absolute blast! I can't get enough of it! The owner, Bruce Barrios, is an awesome guy. Thank you for creating such a fun place.Today the band is "House Arrest"...

Wings are money! Salads awesome. David is a wonderful person and a blessing to patrons. Thank you David!! Thank you Tony's pizza for a wonderful place to Eat and see Dead Bandss
