Whenever Harold and I go to Cebu, one of our usual stopovers is Oakridge Business Park, not really because we have plans there, but because this is where he charges his vehicle. 😄 So while waiting for it to get fully charged, we naturally developed our own little routine. Usually, we’d just walk around, tambay, and end up in our comfort spots: Starbucks and The Matcha Tokyo.
And honestly, Oakridge slowly became one of those places that started feeling familiar every Cebu trip. Then one day, during our usual stop there, we noticed something new. 👀🍕
The Pizza Place That Made Me Curious
It was actually their soft opening when we got there, so there was quite a bit of a crowd at the time. The space wasn’t that big either, which honestly made the place feel even more lively and busy. 😄
And every time we passed by, I kept staring at the place thinking, “why does this feel so American?” 😭 The interiors had that simple diner-style vibe. Bright lights. Chill setup. Casual but cozy.
Parang one of those pizza places you randomly see in movies.
So eventually… curiosity won.
Our First Bite at Tony’s Pizza 🍕
We finally decided to give Tony’s Pizza a try after passing by it so many times during our usual Oakridge stopovers. Haha! We ordered their Italian Sausage pizza, while mine was pepperoni because honestly… I can never say no to pepperoni. 😂🍕
The moment the pizza arrived, the smell alone already made me forget about my low-carb plans for a second. 😭 The crust had that slight crisp outside but still soft and chewy inside, while the cheese was melty and satisfying without feeling too heavy. The toppings were generous enough that every bite actually felt complete, making it the kind of pizza that quietly keeps you reaching for another slice without realizing it.
I also loved that they had condiments like chili flakes, grated cheese, and hot honey on the side. 🍯🌶️🧀 The hot honey honestly surprised me because it added that sweet and slightly spicy kick that somehow made the pizza even more addictive. 😭🍕
Not overly complicated.
Not trying too hard.
Just really comforting pizza.
Menu & Prices 🍕
One thing I also liked about Tony’s Pizza was how simple and straightforward their menu looked. No overwhelming choices—just the kind of menu that immediately makes you focus on the pizza. 😭🍕
During our visit, they had flavors like OG Cheese, OG White, Pepperoni, Italian Sausage, and Truffle Mushroom. They also served Italian subs, buffalo wings, desserts, and drinks on the side.
Of course, my eyes immediately locked onto the pepperoni because apparently my brain thinks pepperoni is always the safest and happiest decision in life. 💀🍕
What we ordered:
Tony’s Pizza Pepperoni
₱165.00 (~$2.90 USD)
Tony’s Pizza Italian Sausage
₱175.00 (~$3.00 USD) 🍕
Location📍
Tony’s Pizza is located at Oakridge IT Center 1 in Oakridge Business Park, Mandaue City, and it’s actually pretty easy to spot while walking around the area.
Tony’s Pizza is open daily from 11 AM to 10 PM, making it a nice little stop whether you just want a quick bite, a casual catch-up, or simply somewhere to sit down and enjoy pizza while waiting around Oakridge. 🍕
There Goes My Diet Again
I told myself, “tikim lang.” 😭 But somehow, that one slice quickly turned into another slice of pepperoni… then another bite… and before I knew it, my low-carb lifestyle was already temporarily unavailable. 🍕💀 Honestly, pizza really has a way of making you forget your diet plans for a moment, especially when it’s this good.
Closing Bite 🥔
Sometimes the best food discoveries happen during waiting moments.
A charging stop turned into coffee tambays, matcha cravings, and now… pizza trips too. 🍕
Tony’s Pizza wasn’t even part of the plan.
But now?
It’s one of the reasons Oakridge feels extra familiar every Cebu trip.
And honestly, I’d love to come back here again someday for another slice or two. 😭🍕
And yes…
I’d break my diet for this again. 😭
Thanks for reading. ♥
