]]> It’s on a side street behind VG’s Donuts. The interior decor can best be described as “I got a little high and decided to start hoarding knickknacks and I love my dog.” And The Besta-Wan Pizza House has been one of the city’s most iconic hangouts since opening in 1965. It’s where locals refuel after sunset surf sessions. It’s got craft beer and a painting with dogs dressed up as Michael Jackson and Mr. T. It’s just pretty great. Now they’re opening a second, bigger location in Vista. The new joint, called The Besta-Wan Big House, will be going into the mall at 1814 Marron Rd. (formerly Finnegan’s Pub). With Flying Pig and Urge Gastropub also expanding into Vista, the quite-awful food scene up there is looking better by the day.
