We had a wonderful meal here tonight (Thursday, August 7, 2025) after being seated right away. I had the chicken parmesana and my wife had the meatball plate. We split a huge Caesars salad. The freshly baked bread that came with the meals and the salad was so soft and chewy and yummy 😋! The quality and the quantity of the food far exceeded our expectations. Adrianna was our server. She was so polite and professional, but the entire staff was hustling - no slackers working here. I hope you all will visit Pizmo Cafe soon.

I LOVE the spinach portabello pizza, add bacon, and the bruschetta omg so good! The balsamic dressing that's mixed in with the bruschetta is AMAZING. the pizza is 10/10!

Far and Away the best pizza I have found in San Luis Obispo County. The service was friendly and outstanding. Nice family atmosphere with a bar. My server even followed up to make sure I was enjoying myself after he delivered my food. This is the closest you will get to New York Pizza on the West Coast.

This place is amazing! Had the best Marinara sauce here and loved the meatball! It’s the first time I would like to post a google review for a restaurant coz it well deserves! Staff are lovely too.

Ok…wow this is the spot! The food is incredible!! Thank goodness because we ate at a few other places on this popular stretch and this place supplied very good authentic Italian food. The 4 of us got different entree, 2 apps and drinks and everything was just splendid! Also at an absolutely reasonable price! The staff…..oh my…the service was just incredible. Yes our waitress was one of the best I’ve ever witnessed. But the buss boys and other crew. Also so nice, gentle, just all around professional staff. What an amazing experience that truly helped shape a wonderful night! I truly wish that I lived in the area so that I could come here weekly, however if I ever travel north from Los Angeles, I’m stopping here for a bite! 10/10

Came here for my daughters 18th birthday dinner. They don’t take reservations but I called ahead and they had tables ready for all 18 of us! The waitress there made it spectacular. Fast with getting food out, and even had a lighter to help me light the candles on the cupcakes. Great service, delicious pizza!

Awesome food and local drinks! I ordered the lizard something IPA and was not disappointed. Others ordered the Sea food pasta, veggie pasta and the veggie pizza. Everything was flavoured perfectly and went well with the garlic bread they served. Did not take long for the order to arrive either. Will definitely come back for another serving of their desserts.

4.5 Nice location close to the pier. Didn't have to wait long on a Friday night. Didn't take long to get the food. Wifey had the pepperoni pizza. She liked it, good flavors, good crust. I had the trio meat canzone. Good size portion, stuffed with meats and cheese, good flavors, good crust. Prices weren't bad compared to what you get these days. We had a salad, a beer, a personal pizza and a calzone all for under $50.

It’s a small cozy pizza pasta place. It’s clean and neat. The menu is good enough to serve vegetarian and meat options. We had the bruschetta and vegetarian pasta and vegetarian pizza all of them were well made and tasted amazingly nice. It’s a good place for lunch and dinner and the local beer is great.

The food was good. Not great but good. The pasta was bland but the chicken was juicy. Wife loves mushrooms so she ordered some on her pizza. I think there was a total of 5 sliced mushrooms.

Use to love this place but no longer since they changed pizza dough to pre- baked store bought crust. Honestly no better than frozen pizza. I should have known something was not right when order was ready in 10 minutes, so disappointed and will not return ☹️

I'm assuming it was the owners, but they were both rude. Tryed joking with the guy looking for a party that wasn't there anymore. I joked and said I was the lady so we could be seated. We were next anyway. He was kind of an ass about instead of laughing. Then the women was super rude to my wife and was being really shitty right off the bat. After I made some comments about bother if them loud enough that they could both hear when they were near enough. The woman was all of a sudden being super nice. They had already done the damage. I won't go send my money there again. The food was good, but not worth spending my good money to be treated like crap.

We were in Pismo for a getaway. We were looking something to eat and I saw Pismo Cafe. We thought it would be really good. We were so disappointed. The most mediocre food we ever ate. I ordered some chicken parmigiana and the pasta had no flavor it was overcooked, chicken smell off, pizza no flavor at all. Bill over $200 plus. If you want to spend your money and eat mediocre food come here.
