Dominic's: Reviews & Ratings
Great sausage and mushroom pizza. Generous toppings. Perfect crust. Excellent service. Nice atmosphere. Comfortable seating. Reasonable price.
Had a wide variety of choices on the menu. The quality of the food was very high and the portions were huge. The service was impeccable
First and for most the staff here are absolutely amazing! They were very kind, friendly and attentive. The food was outstanding. It did take a very long time for my food to come out but that’s ok considering the entire experience. I got the sea food plate and let me tell you perfection. Give this place a shot you won’t be disappointed.
This place was amazing. My family of four ( a 6 and 12 year old) LOVED it. The bread was delicious. The chicken Cesar salad is the BEST the dressing is not a traditional Cesar. The pizza was thin, and the sauce was sweet. The cheesecake was creamy. My favorite part of the whole meal was the salad, even though the pizza is great. The wait staff was super quick and attentive.
Very accommodating when i had a bad reaction to an ingredient that was not their fault. Pepperoni bread was good. The waiters were attentive and we got a table around 7:30pm on a Friday night. It seemed like the kind of place locals would go to.
We stopped in for a cocktail at the bar. We had great service. The only place in town that serves actual espresso martini (not from a can) The bartender brought us some of the complimentary house bread with cheese and marinara. Delicious! Need to visit for dinner.
Great hidden gem in Escondido. JR gave us fantastic customer service. We all loved our dishes. I got the lemon chicken and it was so delicious. My vegetarian girlfriend got the eggplant parmigiana, she loved it. Our 3rd friend got the sausage and peppers and she love it too. We had wine with our dinner, JR brought us a great wine. Too notch service, all the way around. We will be back for sure. The free garlic bread with marinara was addictive.
We did Take Out and it was our first time trying their food and let me tell you, it's DELICIOUS! I'm a big fan of raviolis; every italian place I visit, that's my meal, always. I requested Alfredo sauce instead of marinara and meatballs sauce, no regrets; it was so cheesy, so warm, so perfect. The lasagna was really good too. I would definitely recommend this place.
