Ramona Lisa's Pizza and Subs

Ordered for delivery, arrived earlier than quoted, which is always good. Pizza salad and wings for the Sunday special, all good! Thank you so much for being a great help while we are remodeling our kitchen.

SOOO YUMMY!!! It's so convenient! Call, order online, or just show up... Super friendly staff and a fun atmosphere! And Deserts??? HOLY CHEESECAKE!!! There are so many to choose from! They're ALL delicious!!!

This place never disappoint,they have a good selection of pizza's,pasta's and sandwiches with very fair prices. They also have good lunch specials

The place was awesome. We didn’t eat there we came in for takeout we did not wait at all basically hung up the phone Drove down there got our order.They were polite friendly and courteous. One of their delivery drivers actually open the door for my daughter and I on our way out as he was walking in. have a nice big patio. The pizza was awesome if I had anything to say would be they didn’t give you very much sauce for the breadsticks or dressing for the salad. But I would definitely go there again

The antipasto salad was fresh and delicious. The turkey sandwich was big with lots of toppings. Would request less mustard next time. Lots of people getting take out so a popular place. Cheap good wine by the glass

This is the closest pizza place to the resort we were at, and one of only two restaurants within driving distance, so saying that we chose to go here would be misleading. That being said, I enjoy one off places that differentiate themselves from the chain stores (which, let's be honest, are pretty much all the same). They usually have more friendly staff (as this place did), speacilty menu options (as this place did) and better costume service (as this place did) then you get at a chain place. We were stopped - presumably by the owner? - on the way out the door so he could add silverware and napkins to our order as our hands were full, and then he held the door open for us. It was a pleasant surprise. I'm happy to report that the food was as equally surprising and just as good. The onion rings were delicious, the fried cheese strips were well fried and melted, and the pizza had an unusually large amount of fresh toppings on it. We picked it up and there was a short wait, likely due to the food coming out fresh...it was well worth the wait.

Good place for a "traditional" pizza. You won't get anything with figs or arugula here but you will get a great pizza with the usual toppings. We got an XXL Godfathers for $32 but had leftovers as 4 of us were quite full after 3/4ths of the pie. Atmosphere is not much to speak of.

The best pizza you can get in town, Ramona Lisa's, is a staple in the community with deliveries going out nonstop. It's a great place to dine in with a friend while watching a sports game. They've been around for decades, and the quality of the pizza's dough is undeniable. The bottom of the crust is always so crispy and comes fresh 🔥 out of the oven. The pizzas tend to lean on the cheesy side, which I enjoy.

I randomly stumbled upon this place and was pleasantly surprised with the overwhelmingly large menu to choose from and busy vibe in this small town eatery. I decided to litmus test the place against my better judgment and ordered the jumbo chicken wings hot and took the order to go. The wings were on point and were just like I had them when I lived in Buffalo. The wings are the real deal and done the Buffalo way. The hot sauce had less tang but had a spicy kick that wasn't overwhelming. There was no breading and the wings were fried naked, holding it's crispiness through the skin. Even through it was a takeout order the crispiness held since they were eaten almost right away. Only small knock is they gave me ranch instead of blue cheese on default but hey, I'm in California. Other than that, solid all the way around.

I got a cold 6" Turkey BLT and I was a little hesitant about the price but it turned out to be one of the best sandwiches I've had in awhile! The portion size was very generous as well! Everything else involved in the experience was good but I wouldn't say exceptional. It was a pleasant surprise to have a such a great sandwich though! Definitely check this place out!

Best pizza in ramona, always perfectly cooked never over sauced

Our family orders pizza at least once a week. We love the taste and quality of the food. We could choose to be cheap and get it from the national chains, but honestly this is all around great. It’s pricy, but just get the specials. They run something every day. Owners are local and you are helping out a local business, especially in our current economy.

Their food is great. People inside serving are pleasant. However, their home delivery people park their cars on designated (blue lined) handicapped walkway, and walk away, when the regular parking is just 5 to 10 steps away! The management have been informed and NO improvement is seen to correct this situation.

Older place. No frills. Pricey food due to its isolated location. MANY different food options. Good tasting food!

Ordered three pizzas and 12 sodas for my hardworking crew. Good service. My crew enjoyed the Monday Special pizzas.

Garlic fries always delicious. Tried the pizza for the first time and the onion chunks were cut way too big. One piece of onion covered half the slice of pizza. Not easy to eat as pizza should be, had to pick the items off to eat separately. Chicken was dry and over cooked but crust was good

VERY EXPENSIVE BUT SO SO GOOD! I always get a sandwich here and they are so good but one time they did give me the wrong sandwich i don’t mind cause it was yummy but definitely a disappointment from my normal order! First time they messed up in almost a year though! so yummy.

I’m generally super happy with the pizza, the service, the promptness of delivery. The quality of the ingredients and the overall experience. I get pizza and pasta from this place every week, sometimes twice a week as I am a busy single parent. I tried to call tonight to give some feedback quietly, as it’s not a big deal but is annoying. Please cut your pizzas all the way, that’s all, nothing more. Maybe the cutter your team is using needs to be sharpened. The young lady answering the phone refused to let me talk to her supervisor. Saying no one was around when you could clearly hear the other employees around her through the phone. Look I get it, not every complaint needs to go to the manager, and again, I’m not looking to complain or cause trouble. What I do want is my pizza cut all the way when I order it weekly. Please sharpen the cutter in use or be more thoughtful when cutting so it goes all the way through the crust. This isn’t a big deal, it’s a small quibble, but I want to make sure it’s actually delivered to a leader, manager or owner who cares enough about the business to listen to the feedback rather than ignore it. If you make it impossible to give quiet feedback over a simple phone call, then I will just post it online. Jeez it would have been so much faster and less hassle to just let me talk to the manager. This won’t cause me to stop doing business with them unless they keep delivering pizzas not cut all the way.

Been coming here for years. Turk Bac Avo was my favorite but they've gone up and down in quality. I usually shy away from this place but the other day I grabbed 2 slices of pepperoni and I was pleasantly surprised. Damn decent pie. It was like the kind of pizza the Ninja Turtles would eat and that's not an indictment. I'll be back...🤖

Stopped in for takeout. Both sandwiches had burned bread. Salad was great. Would have taken them back but we were just passing through

Pizza was mediocre, but for a reason that could be resolved. It was simply not cooked enough. Some of the cheese was not even melted. Partially my fault for not looking at the pizza before I took it. My bad on that. With that being said...the pizza was pretty good and I am sure it would have been great if baked properly. The wings were tasty, although once again a few were under cooked and with chicken...well you don't want to mess around with undercooked chicken. The antipasto salad was pretty good in its own right. Overall...cook the food more and you have some very good stuff.

Very friendly staff. I have lived here for years and have never tried this place out. Food is pretty over priced. Pizza was good. Definitely better than your typical major pizza chain. I did however order the hottest wings they had (was hoping for a little kick) but they were nowhere near being hot. Either they gave me the wrong wings or they just don’t have hot wings. I would steer away from the wings.

Ordered couple of pies when visiting family in Ramona. We ordered the Godfather, sausage and pepperoni. All were decent with lots of toppings. The only thing was the dough was too thick and chewy and hard to eat and was bland. If they made it thinner and made it with a crisper crust it would be a winner. The sauce and cheese had good flavor. If I ever ordered again, I would ask for thinner NY style crust and have it well done so crust would have come out more crispy. Otherwise its decent pizza.

The pizza tastes like a frozen grocery store pizza... We ordered a large pepperoni, ate 2 slices and left the rest of the pizza on the table, $18 wasted

We try this place every once in a while hoping that they get better but they never do, food is always cold and they never get your order right. Golf course seems to be the only place to get decent food in the estates... bummer. As an example of what you can expect from this place, this pic is of our "caesar salad" it is two handfuls of wilted romaine, three pepperoncinis, one container of caesar dressing and two containers of ranch... $13.

Ordered a pizza to be delivered at 6. I just had surgery and fall asleep quite often and just wanted that part of dinner out of the way. My dinner showed up at 3 so now instead of the hot pizza we were craving we’ll be having heated up pizza.

The pizza was good. I am pretty sure they except you to do take out. The restaurant is dirty and so dated. TAKE PRIDE IN OWNERSHIP. There is literally NO service…no one talks to you or cares you are there supporting their business. If you are in need of a pizza fix, stop and get take out.

At 5:35, prime dinner hour, 1 slice of 2 hour old cheese pizza in the per slice area. $4.81 is absolutely absurd for a 2 hour old slice of cheese pizza. Get better. Horrible for small town Ramona.

The restaurant is under new management, and based on the cheese and Italian sausage pizza I ordered yesterday, the new management needs to review an Italian cookbook. The pizza was very different than any I've had in the US or Europe. While driving home with the take-out, I noticed that the pizza had an unusual aroma; there was no hint of mozzarella or seasoned tomato sauce. When I opened the carton, I noticed the ridge of crust around the edge of the pizza was quite large so the center was relatively small. The crust had a good texture and was properly chewy, but was flavorless. The tomato sauce was an unusual medium orange color rather than red, and there was so little used that it was difficult to tell exactly how it tasted. There was no oregano or other seasoning apparent. The cheese used did not appear to be mozzarella, as it did not 'stretch'; the layer of cheese was so thin that it was difficult to determine what sort of cheese it was. It had a different aroma than usually found on a pizza. The Italian sausage was fine, although sparse. As noted, except for the spice in the Italian sausage, there was no seasoning used. Even after adding garlic, oregano, and additional seasonings at home, I could only get it up to the 'meh' level. The pizza wasn't inexpensive, either. The staff was mostly friendly and the place looked clean. I hope the recipe is revised and improved in the near future.

Listen to the reviews! Wish I did!!! Horrible. 30 dollars for a skimpy pizza and don't get me started on the "Alfredo sauce"..... it's not. It's so cheap oil and alot of dry herbs. Go somewhere else.

Not good food. And very expensive. Avoid this slop. If this pizza was under 10$ then maybe eat it. It’s over 30 bucks for a pitiful large pizza. Avoid this place so it goes out of business and gets replaced with something respectable . We need to get together as a community and get this place out of our neighborhood.

Whoa. I admit I rarely ever eat bad pizza (I even like some frozen pizzas) but the pizza here was not good. I paid $15 for soggy pizza. It was so soggy I threw it all out. The garlic twists were actually not garlic twists but bread sticks. The marinara... yeah, no. So dissapointed. Come on, pizza is not rocket science. You can do better Ramona Lisa.

I probably just ordered from here for the last time. I ordered a sandwich and have shooting it out my rear end for 12 past hours since eating it. I usually order burgers from them which are always good. Their food is also getting too expensive at this point, $20+ for frozen food items is getting to be too much.

Way too much cheese. Flavor isn’t there. Definitely not worth $35 per pizza!! Save your money and get better pizza at dominos or little Caesar’s

Very dissapointed. I ordered a "large" pepperoni and mushroom pizza. $21.00 It was more like a medium. 13" diameter. A typical large pizza is 16". Very light too. Taste.....below average. There was almost no pizza sauce, the dough is stiff, the cheese is likely processed cheese made with oil. True mozzarella cheese stretches 5 to 6 inches when pulled. And the slices were barely cut. Had to slice it myself. Mama Ramona's has much better taste and is much bigger. And it's the same price. A few months ago I ordered their Italian sub. It was mostly bread. Very little meat. I won't go there again.

delivery drivers are rude, and are smart-aleks. some dude was like “you ‘just’ ordered an hour ago?”, like, yeah, i “JUST” ordered it 1 hour ago… ‘just’ also means recently... maybe stick to making pizza, not trying to mock people with more than remedial knowledge. the lady who took my order over the phone was super nice though, but everything else was kind of regretful not to mention, the food is low-quality; similar to chain restaurants. the soda cans aren’t even cold… like, this place gives off downtown ramona vibes, not the estates, esp. presentationally speaking they also seem kind of rude to people of hispanic culture… like maybe get out of san diego then… you know, the place w a spanish name…

Sub didn't even have a stake, to even be call Chili Stake . More bread then anything.

Food quality is terrible, no flavor in the marinara sauce. Way way to pricey, yes I understand inflation but however I'd rather drive to Poway. I know two awesome pizza joints that don't even come as close to the price of this place. Don't waste your time & money here.

First and last time ordering food from Lisa's pizza and sub. I ordered fettuccine alfredo, wings, pizza and garlic bread. I've never been so disappointed. The fettuccine had no flavor sauce was watered down. Wings and garlic bread had a weird taste. The pizza tasted old. Waste of money food was gross. DON'T ORDER FROM HERE. ORDER DOMINO'S OR PIZZA HUT.

Super expensive pizza and not very good. It was all cheese and soggy. Not good at all. You have to pay extra for everything. Do yourself a favor and drive farther down the road. Only thing good was the salad we purchased. I think this might be them most expensive pizza I have ever had!
