Chewy was our pleasant waiter, very friendly and attentive. Fresh cold water when we sat down and a nice short easy menu to peruse and decide from. No frills, no uneasy decisions. Simple greatness is all that's needed. I'm guessing every table gets the Caesar salad, which was a botttomless pile of fresh lettuce, tons of delicately grated smoothe Parmesan cheese, delicate crumbles of breadcrumbs, with an absolutely decadent Caesar dressing - pleasantly spread throughout the whole entire plate of goodness. Next time I will try the fresh loaf of bread sliced thick with a bowl of cherry tomatoes. Whoa that looked great. Every plate that walked by us whispered 'try me' next time!! Saved the salami Calabrese pizza for home directions on the box which provided the most perfect texture for a reheated pizza we've ever had. Delightful! The pizza. The crust. I can't even believe a whole table while we were eating there skipped the crust of the whole pie. You can't! That's a sin! Greatest sourdough pizza, dare I say delicate but hearty? Perfectly crisp yet soft where it's necessary. I can't wait to try more flavors. Such an adorable place at 'the Camp' -quaint yet plenty of seating outside too for a larger party. It's all you need for a perfect slice of heaven! Thank you Folks! We will definitely be back!

Worth a try! The…read morepizza crust here is AMAZING. Light, airy, crispy, and maintains structure to hold up the delicious toppings. All the ingredients tasted super fresh! Started off with the meatballs. You MUST order the meatballs. Sauce is perfectly seasoned, and the bread that accompanies this dish is perfect. Can't go wrong with beef tallow fried fries and Caesar salad either! Also ordered their wings. I was intrigued by the "Italian fish sauce" that was listed as an ingredient. The wings are definitely a flavor bomb, but I wouldn't order them again. Personally, a bit too salty. Finished off with the "burnt" cheesecake. (They really love burning things here.). It was just okay. I'd pass on that. Our server was great, but some of the food runners were meh if you care about that sort of thing. If you haven't checked out Folks by now, you should.

The good Right amount of cheese, pizza toppings and pizza…read moresauce Fresh additional toppings (green bell peppers and onions) Thick crispy crust Ready when promised The bad None Many people are passionate about pizza. It's often hard for people to agree on whether one is good, bad, or great. I had several guests come over so I ordered large pepperoni pizza with green bell peppers and onions. We all agreed - It was great, lots of toppings and the right amount of cheese and sauce. Crust was perfect texture. It was ready when promised so I quickly drove it home to a hungry group. There are many pizza places much closer to me, but I had to try this one. I am taking a class at Orange Coast College and one to the cooler classmates (Simeon) told us how great their pizzas are at his location in South Irvine. But I went to the one at Jamboree and Irvine Blvd. It was great there, too. It's in a shopping center with lots of parking and a short walk to Ralph's to pick up some beer and sodas. Anyway, everyone enjoyed the pizza and will return when I am in the area again craving for great pizza. Pizza like this went great with some bottled craft beer. PS Sorry no pics, We ate it all before I could pull out my camera.

Service is always awesome whether picking up or delivery!

I'm glad that this place doesn't take their customers'orders too long. The food here tastes like the meals from Zito's pizza in the Orange Circle. This place is kind of small and I don't mind it. The workers are kind and I even asked if I could get a bag so that I could give my pizza bunnies to my younger brother. My brother absolutely loves the taste of the pizza bunnies I offered him. I'm also excited to be going to the Fullerton location shortly after that location opens. I can't wait to try out the food there next to the Barnes and Nobles.

We placed a catering order for a birthday celebration. One dish, pasta primavera, is described as "angel hair, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, zucchini, basil, olive oil, garlic. This dish we have ordered many many times, specifically because we have people with tomato acidity concerns. This dish came doused in marinara sauce. When we called Bari, they claimed it's because we ordered a side of meatballs. The meatball was a side dish! Why would you change our entire order for a side dish? What if my order was fettuccine Alfredo with a side of meatballs?! Also maybe call us to explain? Bari offered a $25 store credit. Would you order again if a restaurant handles your food order as such, never acknowledging the error? So no I don't want a store credit. We asked for a credit card chargeback, they denied it. We asked for the credit in cash, denied. Basically said too bad take it or leave it. Look. The dish was made wrong. I'm not even requesting a full refund on a $150 order. We accepted a tiny $25 for a totally wrong dish. You can't just pull $25 out of your pocket to fix the error? Oh and they blamed that it was our fault to not deal with it the day of. When we had 100+ people at the event. Not cool guys.

My Curry Chicken Marsala pizza was very spicy. #4 I was shocked when she rang up my order on the register at over $ 35.00 for just me.. smallest size Curry Chicken Marsala pizza just above the children's size which they do not make a "curry pizza" in. I had a can of soda with it and that's it. I added a ten percent tip for bringing me the pie. I helped myself to the little plastic fork and knife and napkins are on the table. Again it was over $ 35.00 !! #5 Nowhere near as good as a real Chicken Marsala dinner at a good Indian restaurant and this pizza was double the price!

I've been to the Curry Pizza location in Lake Forest, and I'm happy to say the Tustin location is…read morejust as good. Consistent, flavorful, and just as satisfying. What I love most about this place is how unique the flavors are. You get all these bold, aromatic curry spices and creative toppings -- but it's still grounded in the comfort of pizza. And honestly, who doesn't like pizza? It's the perfect balance. Adventurous, but not intimidating. Lets talk about the pizza, when done right, is basically a full meal. One slice has carbs (the crust), protein (chicken or other toppings), veggies, and dairy -- it checks all the boxes on the food pyramid. At Curry Pizza, those ingredients are layered in a way that feels both satisfying and surprisingly balanced. In a way, it satisfies your craving and your daily calorie intake in one go. It's indulgent but doesn't feel heavy or regretful afterward. If you're tired of your usual pizza joint and want to spice up your routine -- especially if you're trying to "eat better" in the new year without giving up flavor -- this is your spot. You'd honestly be missing out not giving this place a try. I almost forgot to talk about the price point, which is the going rate for most pizza joints. However, they have a lunch special that lets you choose any flavored personal sized pizza and a drink for $15. Great deal!

I highly recommend the main courses and appetizers. Everything was hot and fresh and delicious and the flavors were amazing. The sole was perfectly tender and the citrusy flavor was amazing with the capers. The pizza was also great. The crust tasted home made and was baked to perfection. I would skip over dessert next time. The custard in my caramel brûlée was grainy. The chocolate mouse cake slice was ok, and the vanilla ice cream was sugary. We will definitely be returning for the pizza and mains!

A potential customer rang the bell to attract attention, no one appeared, and she left. Liked the food: fettuccine ai funghi porcini, seven lobster ravioli, and panine or sandwich with meatballs and fries! The lobster was finely ground but might have had more flavor if it was coarse ground. Host seemed upset that we had no reservations, even though there were several unreserved tables. The waiters were friendly. Our breadbasket was not refilled. Plates were cleared quickly. We were not asked if we wanted to see the dessert menu. So, we did not ask for the dessert menu and left.

This review is kinda late, but I was down here in SoCal with my crew last week for a week or so and…read morewe had tried the other Rance's pizza location and really liked it. We were in the Costa Mesa are before we were going to head out back north and my crew wanted to have this deep dish pizza again. What we liked was the crust was so good. It wasn't overly cornmealish like some of these "authentic" Chicago pizza places. I grew up out here in the west, so I'm used to a more flaky light crust. My first Deep Dish Chicago pizza was Zachary's in Berkeley in the Bay Area. This Costa Mesa location is located just south of the 405 at Harbor Blvd. Go to Baker Street and turn left and it's right there. Easy Parking. One thing you gotta know about the deep dish pizzas, they take longer to cook cause they're just so big and need more cooking time, like maybe 35-40 minutes, depending on how busy the kitchen is. We get a classic combo pizza and have some drinks while we wait. It arrives and oh boy does that look good. Dishing it out takes a little practice, but we're good at that now! Everybody loves the flavor and crust. This isn't the cheapest pizza round, but well worth the price and wait. You want cheap go to Straw Hat or something like that.

This place is a must try!!!…read more Some of the best Chicago style pizza I've had was only in San Diego ... until we found Rance's! The restaurant itself is small and quaint. The decor was street style but simple. The staff was so welcoming and attentive. They answered our questions and regularly checked on my boyfriend and I. We tried the buffalo wings while we waited for the pizza. They were perfectly cooked and sauced. Paired with their own ranch, so delicious! We did the traditional 9" pan pizza with only pepperoni. (You just have to keep in mind, the pizzas take approximately 45 min.) The sauce to cheese to toppings ratio was perfect. The cheese pull was soooooo good! I normally don't like crust, and I ate mine here! Pizza so good, you don't need ranch! I tried an Ube beer. And surprisingly, it was so tasty and refreshing! I wish I could remember the brewery and beer name. This was the Costa Mesa location. They do have another one in Long Beach. Overall a great experience and delicious! We'll definitely be back!
