Pizza after the beach? Yes please! Captiva Island Pizza is a great option for a meal while on the island if you're okay with a bit of a wait. It's definitely a hard-working small business, so they're very traditional in how they work. You can walk in and order at their window, or call in an order. They don't deliver so you have to come pick up- they're on the main road in Captiva where most of the shops are, but up on the second floor. There's no true seating inside, it's truly just to walk in, order, and then wait elsewhere. We found the literal one table outside downstairs to eat at, but other than that you figure out in your own what to do once you have the food. But let me say, I really enjoyed the pizza! The wait was worth it. It had plenty of the toppings we asked for, and the crust was the perfect thickness. We also got cheesy bread which was lovely on thick Texas toast, and dipped in marinara it was chefs kiss. Though they're small, they're a great business and it's always better to support local! Plus, great pizza! read more

We have come to Captiva for four years and visit this spot each time. The pizza is always delicious. The owner is always super nice to us. I'm not sure what other people are complaining about. He was the one place open the year after the hurricane, and he was making lots of good pizzas for us during that trip. Thank you for your service! read more

Five stars for Captiva Pizza! They didn't have the personal key lime pies when we visited, but the Cannonball pizza absolutely made up for it--seriously delicious. Great flavor, served hot, and that thin crust was so good. We'll definitely be back for pizza the next time we're on the island. Bonus points for the adorable little shop tucked away on the second floor--such a fun find. read more

Everything great. I have a lot of pizza in my life, NY style, Chicago style and all things in between. We arrived hungry and needed a quick meal, so we chose pizza. Seriously good pie. This pic is mentally 5 minutes after I arrived back with it. It went quick, should have got two! Crispy crust but still NY style, folded and ate. Sauce was delicious, very flavorful but not overwhelming. Right amount of cheese and legit pepperoni. Seriously- well done Captiva Island Pizza! read more

Didn't even order! First time to Captiva and this place was rude as hell! Out of sausage and treats you terrible while trying to order. I told them never mind we'll find ANYTHING else! I gave a one star because negative 10 wasn't available! read more

Tucked away upstairs on the main drag, Captiva Island Pizza is one of those hidden gems that's easy to miss--but absolutely worth finding. The shop is small and has limited/no indoor seating, so it's more of a grab-and-go spot, but what they lack in space they more than make up for in flavor. The pizza is genuinely delicious--crispy crust, fresh toppings, and perfectly balanced sauce. They also serve a surprisingly good salad, which is a great option if you want something lighter. The staff is super friendly and clearly take pride in what they make. Because it's a small operation, it seems like they may have a limited output, so during peak season I can imagine it might take a bit longer. Still, it's worth every minute of the wait. If you're in Captiva and craving pizza, this little upstairs spot should definitely be on your list. read more

Don't bother.. Pizza was nothing special, Service was slow, staff acted like they're doing you a favor to wait on you.. Will look elsewhere next time. read more

Amazing pizza! The taste. Everything. I'm from out of town. This was the first restaurant that popped out. Glad we went.

Good pizza. I was really impressed by the detail in service and hospitality. Would recommend getting the cheesy bread.

Pizza was ok. We needed a meal quick due to travel. Had to call several times to get through. When the phone was picked up, we received terrible customer service along with slurs. If it wasn't the only quick option we had for our group, I wouldn't have continued with the order due to the service. read more

We enjoy their Pizza on most of our visits. Unfortunately they are not open today. We will try again on another visit. In the mean time we'll go to Tween Waters and try their pizza. read more

Up charge on EVERYTHING! Service was horrible and there was no manager on site to help.

Delicious pizza. Really nice owner working hard to get pizzas out to customers. Highly recommend. We had to stop in to order though because phone wasn't working. Definitely don't give up on ordering--pizza worth it! read more

We got some takeout pizza one night while staying on South seas. The pizza was pretty tasty and ready right on time. It's a good option for some pizza on a night when you don't want to go out for a more expensive dinner. There was a gentleman working there that made it a very uncomfortable experience I must report. So I said hey can I have some Parmesan cheese and some red pepper seeds to which he responded no we don't have any and he said your pizzas over there and there's the door and looked at me like he was going to kill me...... Fearing for my life (seriously) I left but I was definitely a bit taken aback. Also the guy in front of me spilled a drink and he basically threw a mop at the customer and told him he better not miss a drop I really don't want to take this out on the restaurant because it most likely doesn't represent the owners philosophy so I'm gonna keep the rating high and chalk it up to he's having a bad week. read more

I consider myself a pizza snob & don't toss out 5/5 stars easily, but I think this place is a 4-5 (better than the 3.5 average it shows here). I recommend this place for a really solid family pizza night, especially carry out while on vacation. Super friendly, fast and easy. The whole family enjoyed. Good pizza, give them a try! read more

This pizza is incredible! The only flaw is they only do takeout and don't have paper plates available. Yet I still gave it 5 stars because the pizza is so good! read more

Haha! This place is apparently well known for its comedically miserable owner/employee. Word around town is that his parents own most of the commercial real estate on Captiva and since their son made nothing better of himself, they allow him to run a pizza store on the second floor of one of these buildings. As such he doesn't need to care about any culture of customer service or generally acting like a decent human being toward others. One day he'll have a big inheritance as long as he keeps running this blasted pizza shop! The hours might be erratic, the service might be cruel and unpleasant, but you might occasionally get a decent pizza. Enjoy! read more

Visited Captiva twice this trip and really enjoyed the pizza. We were staying at Tween Waters and decided to pick it up and head to the room. I loved the fact that you could order multiple toppings without being charged a crazy amount. The pizza crust was yummy and we loved the red sauce. Great job and can't wait to have more. YUMMY. Wish we had some of this in STL because they would get my business. Great job. read more

We called to order a pizza and being out of town we had no idea what size he had. My husband is hard of hearing and asked more than once what size pizza he had and then the guy hung up on him. We called back and the guy asked him are you the guy that keeps asking what size pizza we have. My husband said I asked you once or twice. He said I'm not making you a pizza and hung up on him. Real classy and professional. read more

I've never left a negative review on yelp. I try to use this app as an opportunity to brag on good experiences I've had. However- Today after making around 12 phone calls to this place, we decided to walk in and order. We were immediately asked by the man with a ponytail behind the counter to leave the building and "wait 5 minutes" before we could come back in. Confused I asked him if we could give our order and he replied "no, I asked you to go outside and you're still standing here staring at me". The man was belligerent, short, and threatened me. I legitimately thought he was going to fight me in the restaurant.... And frankly I was angry enough to oblige. I'm not the only one who's encountered this- I attached a snapshot of another review. We walked outside and waited 5 minutes (partially out of spite). He then opened the door and lied about being out of pizza dough- denying us service. I can say though..... the pizza looked/smelled good while I was being threatened. read more

Loved this pizza. We were on the Island a week and had this pizza twice. Family loved the meatball one, the one with pineapple and ham , and the pepperoni. Cheese bread delish also. I think it may be a New York crust-oh so good!! Can't get that where I am in Indiana. Second time ordering on phone in, no answer, but then he called us back, so that was great! Wish there was one around here. Price was very reasonable also. read more

We had a great experience overall with ordering 3 different pizzas and a salad here. Fresh when we picked them up and tasted great. Prices very reasonable. Unfortunately they were out of the key lime to go. Would definitely order from here again. read more

Ordered pizza for take out on a busy Saturday. Pizza was excellent and cheesy bread was great as well. No delivery available despite having "free delivery" on their website. Pizza took about 55 minutes before it was ready for us to pick up. read more

After feasting on seafood for days while visiting Captiva we all needed a change and pizza sounded good. We had this one option that was near South Seas. The pizzas were a lot better than I expected and the ingredients were fresh with flavor. Of the pies we got the skinny pirate was the fav. It is important to note that the place is carry out only and pies are 16" read more

We had pizza for a snack one afternoon after the beach. It was really delicious. We had three different types, pepperoni only, pepperoni and onions and vegetarian. I loved the pepperoni (only one I ate). We did pick up. read more

This pizza is good. We called in our order and walked to pick it up. Pick up was upstairs and there is some construction going on nearby. No issues and nice folks working there. We tried several kinds of pizza and the cheese bread and it was all delicious. read more

My son and friends are on spring break on Captiva while staying in our beach home. Per our suggestion they tried ordering from Captiva island pizza. They could not get an answer on the phone to place an order so they went in person. They were met with the most sarcastic and rude person who kept telling them "as you can see we're super busy" and "try calling it in next time" They told him they tried calling several times. He took deep breaths as though annoyed and repeated that they were too busy. I thought, I bet the owner would like to know about this terrible service. But guess what, it was the owner. read more

Tonight was our first experience ordering from Captiva Pizza. We ordered garlic cheesy bread which was really really tasty. This was our favorite thing seasoned just right with garlic, the right amount of melted cheese, and a good amount of tomato sauce to dip it in. This was a large enough portion to share. We will definitely order this again. We ordered the 16 inch Cannonball Pizza which is with italian sausage, ham, pepperoni, meatballs, onions and black olives. We ordered ours without the sausage. This pizza was pretty good, plenty of cheese and toppings. The meatballs were fine but not my favorite and the crust was tasty and flimsy so it had to be folded up or eaten with a fork. The restaurant was not able to offer delivery tonight but we are staying 5-6 minutes away by car so not a big deal at all. We are glad that we experienced Captiva Pizza and we will likely order again on another stay on the island. Cannonball Pizza read more

There are very few restaurants on Captiva open so I'm so thankful for the ones that are. We got hungry mid day while at the beach and one of my family members found this place. We couldn't get through via the phone so my sister in law drove over there not knowing that they close at a certain time mid day. My sister in law showed up and was about to leave because they were closing down when the guy behind the counter stopped her and told her he would be happy to pop in some pizzas for us if she was willing to wait. I was so amazed at how kind and caring this business was to us. The pizza was amazing, my entire family raves about it. We'll definitely be back when we come for vacay next year! read more

Wowzers!!!!!! The one thing the island of Captiva and Sanibel lack is a quality za shop. Some come and go, others just don't have it.... but Captiva Island Pizza has IT. Service was friendly and quick! They ran out of Parmesan packets and he was willing to go the extra mile and shave off some Cesar salad parm and pack it up to meet our needs. And 2 large pizzas and an order of cheese bread was done and ready to be picked up in 15 minutes. (Not sure if they deliver) Pizza had that deliciousness to it that made you go back for that extra slice.... the "I really shouldn't, may regret it later, but I'm going to keep going extra slice." For those that like extra cheese, extra toppings- I would hold off on adding that to the order. This Za comes packed with cheese. And packed with ingredients... meaning extra extra flop read more

Seriously good pizza and Corbin is a great guy! It's a local go to for busy families. But everyone agrees it's the best pizza on both islands read more

The pizza was amazing! Service was dry but I think the poor guy is swamped with orders. We tried the phone and couldn't get through. Went in person and was able to order and pick up. I think he is so swamped with orders that he ends up having to turn people away. If you are lucky, you will get to eat great pizza! Loved it! read more

On an island where all the restaurant choices seem to be mediocre, CiP hits the spot. Simple menu and great tasting pizza. Can't go wrong.

Wow. The response from the owner made many assumptions. I cannot deliver a pizza when I live in Chicago and I did get my elderly mother birthday gifts. It must've been you that answered the phone that day. You can increase your customer base by just trying to be friendly. Sending prayers your way. read more

After getting some busy signals, I got through. It's a small operation so I was fine with this. Pizza was going to be ready in 45, was ready earlier. It was hot and tasty. Not the best, but would order again. read more

Terrible customer service!! Would give them 0 of it was an option! Sent my daughter with cash and they would not accept her cash. When I called to ask, they couldn't even give me a straight answer. Said that it was owner discretion, but would not give a straight answer. Apparently cash is NOT king in this place. read more

I ordered pizza from this place, The pizza was average. When I went to pick it up the guy was rude. On the way in I noticed a Trump bumper sticker and hat. That alone will keep me from ordering from this guy again. I'm here for two weeks with a house full of people. Too bad he had a need to politicize his business. We will order pizza from somewhere else next time. read more

I never leave reviews, but this was the worst service I have ever had. The owner told us to call the number to place an order, but we did call. The calls kept going right to voicemail. When we went back in, he threatened to call the cops on us. I left a couple snarky remarks and left. DONT EAT HERE. Below is all the calls I sent to the store. read more

If I had to make one rule while on this island it'd be this: no one gets to make pizza except these people. This is excellent pie with a bit of flop but, a spectacular crust, the sauce is amazing (best sauce I've had) and the pepperoni is to die for. I give it a solid 7.8!!! It's worth the drive and it's really really good!! read more
