It's not great nor terrible! Crust is great and so is the amount of cheese and sauce put on! but the topping ingredients are far fetched to what they say...it's not loaded, and dislike the pepperoni as it seemed as it was just topped off at the end..no crisp edges to them and tasted raw. Same goes with there sausage, it's terrible needs to have crisp edges all around honestly, it seemed like all meat ingredients were put at the end or boiled in water then Put on...again terrible toppings but great amount of cheese to sauce ratio and great crust! Please change the style of toppings! Tip- pan fry the meat toppings if needed, just get it with some crispy edges and texture.

Our usual from their original location in Santa Ana is the Wild Boar pizza. Which is AMAZING!! Today we were by this location and craving a meatball sandwich. From this day forward I will forever add pepperoncinis to my meatball sandwiches. It gives it a nice little kick. The one thing I wish it had more of was sauce. It was a bit dry for my liking. I prefer this particular sandwich to be more saucy. I'll be back for pizza soon!!

Just finished eating a pepperoni pizza and loved it. So much pepperoni on it, and much more flavor to the sauce than 1st class pizza. This will definitely be our go to pizza place.

Pizza is fine if on the pricier side, but it is Villa Park. Had a rather large order I placed online and everything was correct on the order and was ready at the stated time. No discernible difference in quality from prior place.

Same pizza as First Class and it's excellent. Disregard any review that says otherwise. Had it several times since First Class left, very consistent, good service. Highly recommend Buccaneer Pizza.

I'm so excited Buccaneer's opened a location in Villa Park (Santa Ana was further for us) Same great food. The pizza is by far my favorite in SoCal, the crust is awesome and the sauce is perfect. I love the Cap'n Atkins pizza which is loaded with meat (pepperoni, ham, meatballs, sausage etc.) My son loves their pasta, his favorite is the Rosa pasta. We go to Buccaneer's at least twice a month and often once a week.

I've been coming to First Class Pizza at this location for over 20 years, so I'm sad to see it go. This new place seems to be using the same pizza recipe, though, so that is good. Unfortunately, they no longer have lunch specials, so the prices are a bit higher than I'm used to for a couple slices and a soda. On top of that, they don't have blue cheese dressing, so I don't even have any interest in getting a slice and a salad anymore. There is a fountain machine sitting in the corner unplugged, so I don't know if they have plans to ever use it, but I bought a Coke and I was given a bottle, so refills are gone, as well. All three of my stars are for the quality of the pizza alone, but everything else is noticeably different (and not as good) compared to what I've grown accustomed to at this location for the past 20+ years. Sad

Very Sad ! for over 20 years we have enjoyed this pizza shop, and last week I called in my order and was told it was now Buccaneer's but was assured it was still the same pizza......... they lied it is not , and we will not be going back, sad to say. By By First Class .... so sad

Last week, I came in to order my yummy First Class Pizza, but they changed owners.. no longer First Class Pizza , and now Buccaneer Pizza... didn't taste the same
We're from Whittier, where we thought Pizzamania was great, but after eating at 1st Class Pizza, this is definitely the best Pizza in the OC! The staff was so courteous and friendly, the prices were quite reasonable and the house salad was delicious!If ever you're looking for a great meal in the OC, take it from me, 1st Class Pizza is the go-to place for you!! ???

I had this for the 1st time 6/17 while baby sitting & holy hell! Most places like Peps, zitos, sometimes porky's & others suck/mess up/etc. Holy hell this pizza is beyond yummy!! Right amount of cheese, sauce, etc. I'm very happy & even ate the leftovers cold & it still was yummy, garlic knots were good(lil too much butter/oil) & chicken w/fries. 5/5?Gonna continue getting it for baby sitting :)

The pizza here is usually very good but lately they've become a little weird. I ordered a pizza, picked it up but when I got home I discovered they had screwed up my order. I called on the phone right away, but nobody answered. About two weeks later, I made another order and when I went to pick it up I spoke to the owner about their previous mistake. He took my name and phone number and said someone would call me; no apology-nothing. Why didn't he handle himself on the spot? And, of course, no one ever called. I was blown off! To top it off, the pizza I picked up that evening (a simple mushroom pizza) had all the mushrooms on one side and nothing on the other. This isn't earth shattering of course but I'm looking for a new pizza source.

The worst! If I could give 0 stars I would. Supposed to be a good pizza place. I guess if you live in Villa Park and its the ONLY place. We heard it was good talked it up to friends ordered pizza on a Friday night 30 min wait no problem. We got there to pick it up said it wasn't ready, waited 20 min longer and the same pizza was sitting on the shelf. DISGUSTING super soggy. $36 expecting more. I'll definitely go to Zitos next time. I have tried daily for 2 weeks to talk to someone there. I have gone in left messages for the owner "Gary" I've been hung up on by Doris "the manager" I understand it's hard to find good people but the owner should at least try to return a phone call . Do yourself a favor go somewhere else

Garys pizza is the best ive had in while. During coved it was kinda of a daily go to meal. Well after eating pizza for a year, I grew tired of it. But when i came here for a delivery, i grabbed a slice to go. The portion is huge, and its very tasty. Anytime im near by and grab another slice. 5/5
