Oggi's Sports Brewhouse & Pizza on Encinitas Boulevard operates as a franchise unit of the sports-themed brewpub chain founded in Del Mar in 1991, now spanning 16 locations across California and Arizona. The Encinitas location recently transitioned its fryer program to avocado oil and beef tallow, eliminating seed oils from wings, fries, and fried appetizers -- a cooking-fat upgrade that brings the kitchen's oil profile closer to the organic-only standards at Healthy Creations Cafe than to conventional sports-bar frying. The on-site microbrewery has accumulated over 60 medals in international, national, and regional competitions including the World Beer Cup and the Great American Beer Festival, brewing styles from a California Gold blonde ale to a Scottish-style session ale on proprietary equipment. Dough is made fresh at each franchise location using a house recipe, and the all-day menu spans pizza, pasta, burgers, wings, sandwiches, and catering platters -- a multi-format kitchen broader than most single-cuisine Encinitas restaurants including Sushi Lounge Encinitas on South Coast Highway 101. The most complex pizza build is the Thai Chili Short Rib, topping hand-made dough with braised short ribs, mozzarella, cashews, red onions, red bell peppers, jalapenos, fresh cilantro, and a Thai chili glaze.
