About

Joe & Ernie's Pizzeria in Chula Vista's Eastlake neighborhood hand-stretches every pie on dairy-free dough brushed with vegan garlic margarine at the Eastlake Village Marketplace on Otay Lakes Road. The strip-cut format — where pies exit the oven sliced into rectangular strips instead of triangles — sets the texture profile apart from conventional pizzeria offerings near Otay Ranch Town Center, including the craft-beer-and-pizza pairings at Yard House. A signature sauce recipe coats every build before a custom mozzarella blend or plant-based cheese layer goes on, and the full vegan lineup includes dedicated configurations like the Vegan Supreme and Meatless Lover's pies. The calzone program seals the same house-recipe fillings into baked pockets that hold up through the delivery radius covering the 91915 zip code. That portable format complements the dine-in pizza-and-calzone program anchoring this stretch of Otay Lakes Road, where post-meal frozen treats from NuYo Frozen Yogurt Eastlake round out the Eastlake Village Marketplace tenant mix. Each 16-inch large build starts as a hand-shaped dairy-free dough ball, receives the vegan garlic-margarine edge brush, and bakes until the crust achieves the crispier edge profile the strip-cut format is engineered to showcase.
