    Best pizza in La Jolla. Went for the first time today and loved it. The owner is super cool and was really pleasant. I'll definitely be back to try the other food. Would highly recommend this place to everyone.

    Carino's epitomizes the expression hole in the wall  , because it's small and unpretentious . You never would guess you can buy a Lamborghini next door . The pizza my family and I had was delicious. Their crust is thin and the pizza is cooked to perfection . We enjoyed a couple bottles of white wine with our meal . The service was friendly and we felt very welcomed  an as though you were at a friend's house .
    I'm excited about this new discovery I found . This is my new beach pizza location to hit up this summer  .  It's a great  place to stop into when you're in the area . They are a cash only restaurant. But there is an atm next door at the liquor store if you don't have cash on you .

    My go to mom and pops pizza spot in La Jolla. Parking is rough so we usually call in and pick up.

    This pizza is good. Not amazing. If this is the best pizza in San Diego (as other reviews have said) then that is a major bummer.

    The service was sort of weird at first cause I think we were early but then it was very friendly (we got a free beer!).

    Avoid the garlic bread because it was basically buttery white bread.

    Good pie and friendly service. The vibes are def cute and very local.
