" I recently discovered Knockout Pizza while staying in Carlsbad, and after just one visit, I understand why it has such a loyal following. The pizza was delightful, with a perfectly balanced sauce and cheese blend. What stood out, however, was the garlic knot appetizer—it was garlicky, buttery, and utterly indulgent! The atmosphere is laid-back, perfect for families and beach-goers alike. It might have been a little busy, but the staff handled everything with grace. Definitely coming back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Knockout is my pizza place for life! The crust is flawless, light, and crunchy unlike any other. I really appreciate that they offer unique specialty pies like the Bronx Red Pie. Each visit, the quality remains consistently high, and the staff's enthusiasm is infectious. The location is ideal as it’s just a skip from the beach, making it a perfect pitstop post-swimming. " (*Curated Review*)

" Refreshingly delightful! I love how they combine great food with a chill beach vibe. I ordered a slice of the pepperoni and was blown away by the generous toppings and perfectly cooked crust. The service was rapid and the staff were super friendly, always checking to ensure we were enjoying our meal. Highly recommend if you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a strange experience here. The food was pretty tasty but the bathroom situation was quite unpleasant. It was not as clean as it should have been, and the waitstaff seemed a bit distracted. I will come back for the pizza because it was exceptional, but I hope the cleanliness can improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" The pizza from Knockout Pizza is simply superb! You can tell they use high-quality ingredients; the freshness shines through in every bite. I ordered a large pepperoni, and to my surprise, it was stuffed with toppings. The atmosphere was vibrant but cozy—a perfect place to enjoy a meal before a sunset stroll on the beach! " (*Curated Review*)

" A true gem of a place! The pizza is as authentic as you can get, reminiscent of the slices I grew up on in Brooklyn. I’ve tried multiple pies here, and each one has been a home run. The staff is always friendly, and they seem to genuinely care about customer satisfaction. If you haven’t been yet, do yourself a favor and go try it—especially their classic Margherita. You won’t regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pleasant experience at Knockout Pizza! Family-friendly and chill vibes. The pizza was generously topped, but personally, I found it a bit greasy. The staff was attentive and made sure we were comfortable. I’ll be back, looking forward to trying different topping combinations. " (*Curated Review*)
