Villa Formia is an Italian restaurant located in the Madison Plaza Shopping Center of southern Oceanside. It's right down the block from the Sands Shopping Center.

The restaurant is split into two parts: a pizzeria on the right and a dining area on the left. Most business is done in the pizzeria, however, they get their fair share of parties in the dining area on certain nights.

"Villa" is known for it's array of specialty slices,  including a tortellini slice and cheesesteak slice among others. Chicken slices include the buffalo, caesar salad, marsala, tomato, parmigiana, and francese.

The spinach and riccota, stuffed meat, and fried calamari slices are others that may surprise you at the counter.

After visiting Villa a couple of times, I realized the chicken caesar slice was the most unique of them all. Plenty of pizzerias make it, but not like this. The chicken is breaded, unlike most caesar slices that have grilled chicken. This element brings out a whole new flavor that's unmatched by other places.

The slice is loaded with chicken and lettuce. And the caesar dressing glaze mixed with parmesan cheese is perfect over the top.
