“ Our Family has been going to The Original Pizza Cookery since it's debut in Woodland Hills in 1975! And still...to this day there is nothing like their garlic cheese rolls, antipasto salad and pizza. SOOOO fresh... Check out our video review @TripoutwithSadieandRandThom ”
“ The service was absolutely amazing! We sat at the bar to watch The NCAA Tournament and the bartender was very helpful getting various game on for us to watch! The food was delicious as always!! 1000 Oaks is lucky to have "The Original Pizza Cookery" in our town!! Keep it up ”
“ The ROLLS are you kidding me 10 out of 10! They have huge salad portions and are very generous with sauces etc. Our server was very sweet and attentive. ”
“ I have been coming here since I was a young girl. The Thousand Oaks location has live music. Check out their website for the schedule. They have amazing garlic and cheese rolls that are loaded with cheese. The medium salad is large and as you can see, the salad and pizzas are delicious. ”
“ You cannot beat the original Pizza. Cookery for the best value and incredible pizza with dinner rolls in all of Ventura county. We drive 30 minutes each way to enjoy and always be able to take extra home for leftovers. Believe me, this pizza is just as good the next day. I would love to say that I've tried other food that they offer but the pizza is so good. That's the only thing we always order. ”
“ We arrived a little after 7pm. It was not crowded so we were seated quickly. Our server was nice and kept water in our glasses. The pizza is usually pretty good however this time it was soggy. And it was $46 with the tip which seems a bit too high for a pizza. I really like dining here but their prices are a bit to much. It's a comfortable dining experience. Booths and chairs allow pretty much anyone to be comfortable dining. Great for kids and adults. ”
“ The food is amazing. This fettuccine Alfredo tasted a little more authentic than typical fettuccine Alfredo from Olive Garden/cheesecake factory/etc. The portions were big so I took some home since I filled up on the mozzarella cheese fries at the beginning. Our server was good, she did seem a little unenthusiastic but our drinks/apps/food all came out very quickly so that made up for it. We sat at a booth. There was lighting at every booth which made the restaurant look very nice and elegant. Since the first time I went, I've gone a second time and had a chicken salad which was amazing! Their bread is also to die for! Can't wait to go again! ”
“ I've been to other locations before, this one is massive! We didn't wait long for a table, service is always top notch here, they treat you like family!! I can't tell you how good their bread rolls are, they come out fresh and fluffy. I love their salads, pizza, pastas, sandwiches etc. every dish here is great! Comfortable laid back atmosphere and you can come in casual. Love the good vibes, music playing, and friendly staff! My table of 4 loves everything they had (chicken parm, Alfredo, chopped salad, cheese burger etc) ”
“ Better get here before the secret is out!! Wonderful music and happy hour if you like 80s music. Chris the bar tender is super friendly and helpful for drink selections.. Definitely worth trying highly recommend.. ”
