“This honestly might be the best pizza I have ever had and I’ve had my share of pizza in Italy and NYC.

Two things that really set Grazie apart from the competition is their dough and tomato sauce.
The dough has this incredible balance of chewiness and crispiness. I have no idea how they do it but it’s incredibly delicious.
The tomato sauce is very unique. It’s a light refreshing sauce. It has a unique sweetness to it and you can immediately tell it’s made fresh.

I’m just so thrilled to have discovered this place and that it’s only 15 minutes from my house. I can’t imagine ever getting pizza anywhere else now. It’s also great that they have such a nice seating area on PCH, you can enjoy your pizza and people watch.“

“Amazing venue, Great beers and pizza! A must do if you are in the area!“

“Amazing pizza and atmosphere! Can’t wait to come back again!“

“We tried your pizza tonight and we love it!! Three different pizzas and they were all perfect. We will definitely be ordering from here again ❤️“

“Love Neapolitan! Great service. Terrific selection. Our pizza was so tasty - crust and light sauce Yum! The Caprese Buratta was fresh and creamy. Fabulous, decadent dessert options. Very nice wine and beer list. Will return. Definitely recommend.“

“Sal’s is a class A establishment. I messed up my order (grandma pie with breadcrumb and onion + sausage pinwheel and cannoli + black and white cookies) I ordered for pick up when it should have been delivery. The owner delivered the order himself. The grandma pie was on point and the sausage pinwheel was right! Waiting to taste the desert but im sure it will be great. Thank you Sal’s“

“Just ate here today for the first time and the pizza was amazing!! I ordered the bbq chicken and my friend got pepperoni. The crust was insanely delicious and crispy! Cheese to toppings ratio was on point! The mozzarella cheese sticks were also very good! And to top it all off, the customer service was 💯!! Highly recommend!!“

“great food!!!! reasonable pricing!!! please experience their food!! nice people fast service!! love this place!!!“

“So, my partner and I have a couple of pizza spots we like to hit up, while in the area. The other popular one told us it was a 45-minute wait, while this spot was a much quicker 20 minute wait, big plus there! The customer service was solid; everyone was friendly and chill.
We were really craving New York-style pizza, but honestly, this place was okay, good not terrible but also not quite NY style. The wings, on the other hand, were a highlight: big, juicy, and the sauce was spicy enough to kick it up a notch. Overall, I’d definitely recommend the wings they did the job and then some. The pizza was decent, but the wings really stole the show for me.“

“First time ordering from Porky's Pizza. And...Wow!! Excellent!! One of the very best pizzas we've had in Orange County since moving from New York! Crust is fabulous and pizza topping outstanding! Will be ordering many more pizzas from Porky's. Would highly recommend.Also, very clean and friendly service. Five-plus stars for sure!!!“

“Adamantium Steel Band!! Great Music!!🎉🎉🎉“

“Hands down one of the best pizza locations in Orange County. I have tried pizza everywhere, but nothing beats the freshness and ingredients that are used here in Bella Roma. You can tell that the owner carefully sources all of his ingredients and products to give us the best tasting pizzas, salads, and pastas! Thank you Bella Roma, I will be coming more frequently.

“This is great little center. The beer and liquor store on the corner is great. The owners are wonderful people. The sushi place is shockingly good and the auto repair centers and smog centers are quite good as well. It has a lot more than most people realize. I highly recommend checking it out.“

“We loooove Lunita's! This ain't your average mediocre pie. It's artisinal. From the crispy yet chewy crust to the sauce and the selection of unique combos (my personal favorite is the Sexy Roni), every bite of a Lunita's pie is simply delicious. Oh, and we got the Caesar salad last time, which was also really good-- elevated and super fresh.

They've also got great t-shirts. And regarding the text to order concept, I think it's fun and refreshing -- it's right to the point and simple to do.“

“Clean and fast with plenty of out door seating. By from some of the best pizza I’ve had. If we’re ever in Laguna again I’ll be sure to stop!“

“Rubino's has the BEST gluten free pizza in town!

We love it here. Although they don't have a dedicated gluten free facility, they understand gluten allergy and most importantly, we have never gotten sick.

Thank you Rubinos for being accommodating and for bringing pizza night to our family again!“

“We want to thank CPK for honoring Veterans today. They gave a delicious complementary supper tonight with a nice menu. The food was delicious. The staff was excellent. Service was fast. Manager thanked the veterans and gave us a handshake and a flag. He even had a table set for the missing soldiers , sailors, and Marines. Happy that everyone in restaurant was having a great time. Staff was all friendly and excellent. We eat here about ever other month. Very affordable, great pizzas and pastas“

“Great place. Love the Beatles atmosphere. Great music playing.“

“Pizza is Great! Loved the fast Service.“

“Always a great time at Santora’s!!! Fantastic bartenders and friendly customers!!! Perfect place to catch the game!👍👍“

“I was originally planning to leave a 3.5 or 4-star review for Blaze Pizza, but something happened that encouraged me to change it to 5 stars. The quality of the pizzas was good for the price, although a part of the crust was slightly overcooked, and a bit more attention during baking would have helped. Still, overall, I’d say the quality was solid considering the price point.

In my order, I had included a Caesar salad, which I realized was missing when I got home. I called the restaurant to let them know, and after checking my email later, I saw they had refunded part of the cost. This level of customer service truly impressed me and convinced me to add that extra star.“

“Best pizza I’ve had since moving to CA from NY. Amazing food, great atmosphere and impeccable service. My go to place!“

“The food was pretty spanking good, but I fear that it could have been better had we ordered the deep dish. We just weren’t that hungry, but needed to feed the little ones. The layout of the place is a bit awkward if you have got a stroller or such since the front door immediately goes up a few sets of stairs, but aside from that there was the heat. The restaurant ran a bit warm, but it could have just been because of the heater outside. The place seemed to be a family magnet as there were tons of kiddos inside. Gotta go back and check out the deep dish next time around~“

“They have wristband tech. for wine/beer.“

“everything we ordered was good.. I recommend the bbq rib tips (honey bbq).“

“Great food! Great service! Awesome people! Love it!“

“Always have had a great experience here, and I have going here for over 40 years!!!“

“I’ll start with the little negative. Low interaction with the staff, they’ll take your order and walk away and move on, however, I understand that it’s a busy spot and they have to be moving quick so overall not a big deal. Now for the pizza! Great pizza, it will take a minute but well worth, the godfather was a meat lover style pizza and it was delicious. This is a spot that you can take a date to, get pizza to go, get a drink at the store next door, and walk like 1 minute to the beach and have a nice picnic at sunset. Amazing location and great pizzas. Will be coming back often“

“I just picked up my curbside groceries. The lettuce and spinach was fresh and beautiful. My peppers, tomatoes etc looked fresher than the market. I bought flour and yeast which is so difficult to find and eggs and milk. I will definitely order again. I would very highly recommend them. Thank you for providing this service!“

“Excellent experience! Excellent food! Excellent service! Fantastic little owner owned/operated Northern Italian cuisine restaurant. We will return!“

“Yummy best by far in town“

“Went in with 12 kiddos from the nearby elementary school. I was greeted and helped by Dennis initially and could not have been treated any better. He was very accommodating and helpful with ordering. K assisted next and got all the food ready in great time. Highly recommend! This team made the party happen! Very thankful for their help.“

“Thank you Scott (the manager)for being amazing!! My son’s 4th bday party is super successful .You did it all by yourself, u are an amazing employee..the best I’ve known in all over chuck e cheese I’ve been . My son and my guests are awe to ur work ethics on giving us good and quality party ..Salamat (thank u)“

“Delicious Chicago style and thin crust pizza. Their chicken wings were great too! They even had live entertainment outside. I will definitely come back again.“
