Ocean Park Pizza

Gabby was an amazing server! Extremely nice and attentive despite it being a very busy Friday night. She had great energy, didn’t make us feel rushed and was just lovely! We were extremely impressed with Gabby’s service! We always come for the Greek food because it is delicious and great portions! Our only complaint is that some gluten free options like gluten free pizza would be really appreciated!

Honestly, I'm very confused by these reviews. We've eaten here 3 times, and ordered pizza for delivery, and every time it's been terrible, just terrible! We keep "giving it another shot" because we keep hearing how amazing it is. It is in fact overpriced and TERRIBLE. Is everyone in love with it because there is simply no other option? SO confused! Firstly, what restaurant in 2022 has ZERO gluten-free options? The food: Beef dip - stale bread, over-cooked cheap meat, flavourless dip- gross. The crunchy chicken sandwich, looks like a Sysco truck threw up a frozen chicken cutlet on a bland bun - flavourless and gross. Caesar salad - tasted like wet-lettuce with a couple slices of flavourless cheese thrown on it - gross gross. The Sheppards pie is obviously (over)heated from frozen (and after requesting a GF option, is served with garlic toast - that's a law suit waiting to happen). The pizza. Oh my. The pizza we kept hearing was incredible - overly sauced, with a half an inch of some nameless (figured I couldn't use "flavourless" again in this review) white cheese on it. Because the cheese is put on top of the pepperoni (the only good ingredient in the meal and the reason this is a two-star review instead of a one-star review) means the toppings are independent of the pizza base (rookie mistake) and slide off the base. The Calamari is the worst I've had ever! Imagine slicing chunks of rubber off your car tire - deep frying them and throwing some raw onion on the plate - that's a pretty accurate description. I just figured out why they spell it "Kalamari" because it must be some rubber calamari substitute. The service is... well... worthy of zero tip if such a thing was culturally acceptable. Did I mention prices are about 20-40% higher than other restaurants in the area? Like I said, we keep trying this place because we WANT to like it. We live a block away and I'd LOVE nothing more than to have a great (I'd take "decent" even) pub/restaurant around the corner, alas, this is NOT it. I keep reading all these other reviews, and I'm wondering: what do we keep missing? It's just awful here. Yet it's always busy. We can't quite figure it out. It's a head scratcher.
