They have Daiya! - Edit
This place serves meat as well as vegetarian/vegan food. Their spinache and artichoke pizza is very good. Order an XL and take the rest home for a few lunches! They have vegan sorbet also, so that's fun. They have mock meats for pizza, if you're so inclined, and they serve natural sodas. The waitstaff was very pleasant. We went on Christmas day, and the waiter was friendly, funny, and hard-working. Love their pizza! Oh, and you must try their breadstick trio!!!!!!
Pros: Daiya, Several pizzas to choose from, nice atmosphere.
Cons: Only thin crust available

A nice surprise - Edit
We stumbled across this place while shopping at a couple of vintage stores up the street. Definitely a nice surprise!
The staff here were lovely, very friendly and attentive even while my partner and I just sat down with drinks waiting for our friend to finish her shopping. The pizzas (when we finally ordered them) were great, and easy to customise. They could have been more generous with the toppings, but since we don't have good vegan cheese at home, I didn't mind the mouthfuls of just cheese at all.
The brownies were also delicious- so good that our friend devoured hers on the walk from the restaurant to the bus stop. An admirable feat, since they're not small. I'll be coming back here next time I'm in San Diego.
Pros: Great, cheesy pizzas, Delicious brownies, Lovely staff
Cons: Sparse toppings

Delish, but way too pricey! - Edit
The vegan pizza that I concocted was amazing! My non-veg brother thought the faux cheese and faux chicken were remarkable. But if you customize your own pizza toppings, beware: the price gets outta control quickly! I especially felt the pinch on my wallet since their pizza is extremely thin crust (so you are not going to leave feeling very full).
I loved that they offer a vegan brownie (which was pretty tasty for a non-veg restaurant). But after enticing me with promises of an amazing brownie-a-la-mode, the server came back to announce they ran out of vegan ice cream. What a tease!! Our server also teased us with promises of the most amazing acai beer...but then came back to tell us they were completely out. I know restaurants run out of stuff, but at least alert the servers in advance so that customers don't get really excited/disappointed.
Pros: Vegan Cheese, Vegan Chicken, Vegan Brownie
Cons: WAY too expensive, Parking

Not Bad - Edit
Was quite as veg friendly as I imagined, looking at the description on this page I see I must have missed the vegan cheese and options somehow. The salad was good, but I think there are better veg restaurants in San Diego worthy of my time and money.
Pros: clean, friendly
Cons: noisy

just okay - Edit
i was kind of disappointed with my experience. the fusion salad was casino quality with some arugula thrown in. i expected better from an italian place. the crust was good and thin but even though i requested light tomato sauce it came on the heavy side. and they were out of carmelized onions, soy icecream (for the brownie a la mode), and mock meat. they skimped on the cheese too. next time i want my vegan pizza fix, i will go to stephanie's.
Cons: slow, out of stock, blah

Great food and service - Edit
Ate there recently. Loved the pizza. Met the owner--he's a really nice guy. Great beer selection (I didn't notice the wine options.)

Fresh, healthy and kid friendly - Edit
What is not to like about all fresh ingredients and good options for vegetarian and non-vegetarians (and vegans)? If salads are your thing, you can pick the protein--chicken breast, shrimp, steak. The pizzas come in varying flavors with loads of upscale toppers. Read our full review at http://www.athleticmindedtraveler.com/cities/eat_well_list.php?city=2
Pros: friendly, good ingredients, fresh
Cons: can add up

Great pizza & a pretty good brownie - Edit
Excellent vegan pizza, with a nice balance of crust, sauce, and vegan soy cheese. There are no mock meat toppings, but there is a nice selection of veggie toppings.
The waiters are really friendly, although the service is a little slow. If you do not like to wait, it might be better to try delivery or call ahead and pick it up yourself.
They have a vegan brownie, and it is pretty big.
Pros: Vegan brownie
Cons: A little pricey, Service is a little slow

Yum! - Edit
We went to Pizza Fusion to see if it was really true that they offered vegan pizza. They do! They even have a vegan brownie (which was given to us free) and it was moist and yummy! You can order the veggie pizza or you can make your own. Although it is a better deal if you get their veggie pizza. We did ask for mushrooms in place of the broccoli. The soy cheese was really well melted. It was very good. The waiters were really friendly and helpful. We will be back! Also, they deliver. Hmmm, I think I will get some tonight!
Pros: Vegan options, friendly staff
Cons: pricey
