Kudos to the new manager Shannon who started the day after we were in for dinner 2 Sunday's ago. We ordered a pizza and 20 minutes later they said they were out of pizza cheese. Not sure how a pizza place runs out of cheese but unbeknownst to us the pizza was still on the check. After discovering the mistake a few days later I called the restaurant and Shannon was quick to rectify the situation. we will be back in for dinner very soon! read more

If you live in the Cave Creek area this is a welcome restaurant addition to the town. It's busy all the time. The food is good, and the servers really try hard to manage things. It is like a locally owned Olive Garden Don't expect haute cuisine, just a tasty Italian meal that more than fills you up read more

Waiting.....So. Much. Waiting. Don't bring kids here and don't go if you have an hour to eat. You need 2 hours here. Service is so painstaking s-l-o-w. We have been here twice on Sunday evening - around 8pm. Never seen a manager or even an essence of a manager. It's weird. You walk in and the hostess will say - there will be a 20 minute wait and there are tables open?? I think this place is either under staffed or the manager is not lighting a fire under anyone's butts to get things moving. I knew the food would be great because Oregano's food is always great. WE WILL NOT BE BACK UNTIL WE HEAR SERVICE HAS IMPROVED. Move people! Stop standing around! The atmosphere will be more lively too, like the feisty,quick,fun Oregano's that I'm used to! read more

Hand's down, Oregano's is our favorite pizza joint in all of the Phoenix area. We have eaten at several, however the new Cave Creek location is nearest to our home. We tend to go "off hours" or before the rush times, never having to wait more than a couple minutes for a table. The pizza, of course, is superb and the wait staff here is great. They are always friendly and easy to visit with.We went on my birthday in Oct and I had no idea there was a "birthday cookie". Susan(waitress) brought out this incredible, warm, freshly baked 6"-8" cookie with melting ice cream on top and needless to say, after eating most of a medium pizza, I made room for the cookie....yes, I shared with my wife....We love the pizza so much here, we find it difficult to order anything else off the menu! read more

Last two times we ordered pizza to go the bottom of the pizzas have been burnt. The 2nd time we ordered we let them know and it also came back burnt. Their pizza is pricey, do they shouldn't burn it! Haven't been back since. Disappointing cause they used to be better. UPDATE: I was contacted by management of Oregano's who truly was concerned about my burnt pizzas. It is very nice to know they care enough about their business and customers to read their reviews. We will definitely go back and try their delicious pizza again. read more

Our family loves this place. The food is so good and generous portions of everything. The servers are all so great too. So happy you came to Cave Creek. read more

Meh pizza is ok but the clientele here is usually rude, especially if you have kids. As someone with Italian roots who grew up in New York then Philly this makes no sense, Italian places are about family. Staff try to make up for this with promises of this or that but then fail to deliver... make the trip down to Spinato's instead you will be happier read more

Yesterday was the worst experience in this restaurant. We arrive at 2:55 pm, my husband, my two toddlers girls and I. The restaurant it wasn't busy, when the server took our drink order, we order a wings of fire and the fancy dancy pizza. The wings arrived at 3:35!! And the pizza 10 minutes later!! The server said that this pizza took so longer to cook, but the pizza was a mess, it was burned, the bread was like a salty cracker and the cheese looked like microwave heated. My husband told me that we should leave the place, but my girls were so hungry. The manager went to our table and said sorry for the crispy pizza and she paid for the pizza. I heard another families making complains. We used to go to the Shea location and always was perfect. read more

Once again I decided to call ahead and was told there is a long wait about 45 minutes. Decided not to go again. what kind of place everyday has such a long wait for dinner and it is only 5:30pm on a Tues in summer. Give me a break. I will wait until all of the hoopla dies down. read more

Very slow service. Sat for 15mins before even being asked if we wanted a water. I had heard this place was slow and poor service from several others, but since it was not busy and we came in after the rush, I was expecting better service. Once the server came around, he did a fine job. Refilled our waters, etc. Food came out in decent amount of time. We had pizza & wings. The pizza was just "ok". Many other better pizza joints in the area. Barros, Rosatis, Rays, Uncle Louie, Pizzafarros; all blow this place away. Barros being my local favorite. The wings were the smallest I've ever had. Literally. I wish I would have snapped a picture. Some were seriously 1/2 the size of my pinky finger. I have never seen such small wings. Very, very poor quality. Again, all of the other places selling wings put this place to shame. Flavor was good, just the wings were about 1/4 of the size of standard wing. My wife and I order pizza/wings once a week so I have a pretty good idea of what other pizza joints are serving up. The pizza for what it is, is overpriced. Large pizza and wings was $40 not including tip. Save your money; save your time and go to one of the many other great pizza joints in our great town of Cave Creek! First time and last time customer at this location. read more

YAY!!! We had the best experience here. The service from everyone (mostly teenagers) was excellent. They were all smiles, accommodating, and confident. Everyone seemed willing and anxious to help each other out, which made our experience even better. The food - well, it's Oregano's, so it's awesome. Salads are huge and great, the pizza (we had Bistro Classic thin crust) is amazing. And don't forget the pizzookie. It's incredible. Seriously back to the service, though. We could not say enough great things about how we were treated, as though everyone was genuinely happy to see us and wanted to make sure every need and whim was accommodated. We sat on the patin and enjoyed the sunset and music. Beautiful views of Black Mountain too. This is a great thing for Cave Creek - awesome food and service combined in a great restaurant. Thank you for opening!! :) read more

I've been to Oreganos many times and have never been disappointed in their food. They do get crowded at times, which is to be expected when the food quality is so good. I've always been greeted with a friendly smile from the hostess and everyone working there has been most pleasant and friendly. My last meal was at the bar and Katherine took excellent care of us while she shared her radiant friendly demeanor. Most everyone there seemed very happy while working there. This is a tribute to good management with an emphasis on excellent customer service. I am looking forward to my next dining experience at Oreganos, for sure. read more

It's hard to say anything negative about this place. The prices are so reasonable, the food is consistently good, and it's a fun atmosphere. I love their frozen bellinis. I can't go without having one. They are super strong too-be careful. Their wings are the best in the valley. Super meaty and delicious. We mix medium with Italian gold-so good. Their plain old thin crust cheese pizza is what we usually go for; sometimes we throw on some sausage. The pesto pie is also good. Their salads are delicious too. Waffle fries! Yes, please. Stuffed 'shrooms? Ok! (Huge and filling). You can't leave without a pizzookie (pizza cookie topped with cream--go for the classic chocolate chip). Be prepared for a wait for dinner especially in nicer weather. This location isn't too bad to wait at--they have cornhole. read more

This food was delicious and the ambiance was comforting. We went to celebrate a birthday and we were accommodated with a friendly smile and a free pazooki. However, the best part by far was the service. The service was exceptional and all the employees we encountered were kind and courteous. An especially outstanding member was a man named Bobby Murphy. What he lacked in height and age, he made up for with witty humor, kind assistance, and a smile that makes me want to live a better life. read more

This is now the only Oregano's we will go to ever again!!! Let's please start with our server, Kendall. Most friendly and attentive server we have ever had at an Oregano's establishment and have been to all of them! Hostess always seats us with a smile, restaurant is always super clean and the manager is always walking around checking on guests and service provided. Kendall, thank you for always making our visits to the Cave Creek Oregano's so enjoyable! read more

Suckered in again to try it hoping it would be better. Right away it sucks. 10 minute wait for a waitress once seated. Then can't get pizza as it's an hour wait. Cave creek Oregano's is an F-ing shit show. EVERYTIME read more

They have done it! They are back to the Oreganos we loved. Great food and great service. We highly recommend you give them a chance. We are back to visiting them 3-4 times a month and love every visit. read more

Quite a disappointment after our first visit was great. Waitress was very poorly prepared and trained. Not worth the money. We waited 45 minutes before getting food and we had to send our spinich back since they put cheese. The manager did her best but we will be hesitant to go back. Pizza dough is good and atmosphere is pleasant but pricing is too high. Brussel sprouts are quite good. Hope they get it together since there are not a ton of choices around. read more

Food is great but the service is awful. 30 minutes to get seated and 50 minutes for a pan pizza and 20 minutes to get a bill. Good luck. If you have all night it's a great place to go. If you're hungry right now don't go here!!! read more

Marcia was amazing excellent customer service thank you for now having gluten-free pizza and gluten-free pasta I will return and will ask for Marcias section read more

I recently took 8 family and friends there for my Birthday Dinner. Everyone is very nice there and attentive. The Anti-pasta salad is my new favorite and I love the thin crust pizza. Friends had lasagna and chicken parmesan and all the food was really good. The only issue was our salads and garlic bread showed up very late but the staff was very nice about it and we were happy all in all. It's a fun, busy, vibrant place so expect to wait a bit. I prefer that actually - the food is fresh and good. We have been there 3 times now and will be back for sure. Great Prices too! read more

Called in to place an order to go only to be placed on hold twice and they never picked up the phone as I was on hold until we got to Oreganos in Cave Creek, we drove for 30 min to get there. I told manager, he apologized and that was it. We decided to eat there, while the pizza was good the place was dirty, floors even the blinds looked they never been wiped down, crumbs on them. Better cleaning needed. read more

My family and I love the Bowl-O-Pastas! Super easy, delicious, and filling. We always have leftovers. The service was extremely attentive and accomadting for a busy Saturday night. Love coming here! read more

Delicious food and drinks. The wait is a little long but it's well worth it. We have tried almost every specialty thin crust pizza and love them all. read more

My kids and husband enjoy coming here to have a dinner night out. The prices are great with huge portions. I love all there appetizers especially the brochette. They also have the great cookie dessert . They are very kid friendly and while you wait for tables they can play outside. read more

So slow. We ordered one pizza and 2kids slices. We were there for over 2 hours and probably spent 10 minutes eating because we were so hungry by the time it came out. Then it took another 15 minutes to get the change from the bill. The pizza was good but I wouldn't wait again. read more

We eat at this Oregano's location At Least 3 times a month, usually lunch, but sometimes for dinner since it's the closest location to our home. We also have eaten at the Scottsdale & Shea, and in Phx. on Cactus, Glendale, and even the New one in Flagstaff, so we know the menu well & how the food should be. We arrived at 11:50AM, and they were out of stuffed pizzas?!? which is a midday special. The restaurant was not very busy either. So we changed our orders. My tree hugger skillet of vegetables looked very small on arrival compared to the other 2 times I've had it. Turns out it was totally missing the broccoli & not topped with the shredded cheese either. So they took it away to add the missing ingredients while I ate my husband's side salad. I've noticed there is just NO consistency at this location!!! In the past, my eggplant parm. was tiny while other times normal size & the pasta was cold to boot, my chicken Caesar salad once had crumbled pieces of chicken on top, like tiny scraps while other imes you can see it is chicken, and the Oregano's Favorite salad was so over dressed with very wilted lettuce, the big hot chicken parm. sandwich sometimes isn't big, like you got a half of one --- I let these things go until today, when my skillet arrived is when I finally voiced My disappointment to our server. I couldn't understand why it looked so skimpy. It didn't even fill the skillet to the edges. It was the manager who noticed it was missing items. We still tipped our server very well, she did apologize profusely, it was of no fault of hers, it was the kitchen who goofed up. The manager who was sent over was very nice. We had a lengthy chat. He did take care of this goof up, but by the time my corrected skillet was finally about to come out, we had to leave -- so it was packed to go. So my lunch today was an iced tea & my husband's side salad. :( No one should leave a Lunch Out hungry! read more

A must try!! The pasta was flavorable and the best i have ever eaten. Service was top notch.

Staff is ridiculous. Came in tonight and there was a pizza at the hostess stand, as there often is. I helped myself to a piece. The gal that was standing there yelled at me "next time only take the piece with a napkin, its a health law". I didn't take one with a napkin(only two had them) because she was picking them up with her bare hand and putting them in a napkin on the counter. Putting her thumb on the pizza to deliver it to the tray. I preferred to try my luck with a piece she didn't have her hands on. In between handling the pizza with her ungloved hand she would handle the menus. Thinking the food handler classes the county gives might cover some of these issues. Generally being a little nicer and not humiliating people partaking in the pizza samples could be a store policy. Food is great but staff up front was not a treat! What a night! read more

Frequently patronize Oregano, but failure to honor Yelp "join the waitlist" wait time was today's huge disappointment . Eating elsewhere tonight. Thought we'd give it a try tonight, got a table but they no longer have beer by the pitcher and no longer serve Blue Moon, happens to be our favorite. read more

Awesome service, great food! 3 cheers for Katie, Kareem, Marissa, Brandon,, Tanner.. You did a fantastic job. We're so thrilled to have Oregano's out in our neck of the woods at long last!!!! Beefstro salad can't be beat, thanks for serving it just the way we like it. You guys are the best... Sure to be a regular dinner spot for us! read more

The food is always good, but it took 16 minutes to even be acknowledged by the waitstaff. Very frustrating especially when employees are standing around and chatting. read more

Every time we visit this location service is terrible. We have never gotten our food in less than an hour. Have waited as long as two. Does not seem to matter what day or time. read more

This was the most amazing tasting food that I have had in a very long time. I had the wedding soup, calamari and some pizza and I can honestly tell you that if you dont eat here you can only be mad at yourself. The service was amazing the food just the same and I'm telling you. TRY THIS FOOD read more

Oregano's - Very 70s diner vibe in the best of ways. Amazing decor and an amazingly friendly family like feel from the staff. - Pizza Near Me - Cave Creek, Arizona

6 PM Monday evening. Fairly busy. Ordered the Chicken Lasagna. A long wait for slightly warm food. Bread was cold and dry. Lasagna was dry, sauce was not well prepared. Tasted like tomato paste with a few dry herbs ground in with no prep involved for flavor. read more

3 stars overall? What? This place definitely deserves 5 stars! I made a yelp just to review this wonderful new addition to Cave Creek! I went with a friend a few nights back and we sat at the bar. We ordered one of their flavored margaritas, the pom-o-granite (so it's called on the menu), and a bellini. Delicious! As far as the food goes, we also ordered the calimari (a little greasy to be honest), but very good. For dinner, we got a thin crust pizza with pepperoni. Simple and full of flavor. Unfortunately, we were too stuffed to get one of their pazookies, but will definitely be back to grab one! The bartenders, Dave and Brie (I believe their names were), were attentive and very nice. We never had to wait on refills on drinks, boxes when we were done, or anything else we needed even though it got crazy at the bar right after we got there. I suggest showing up a little earlier (before 5:30pm) even during the week. It gets SO busy! Other than it being noisy because of how busy it was, I HIGHLY recommend this place. So good! read more

Shrimp Scampi - cooked to perfection! Authentic Italian cooking, a hidden gem in Cave Creek. The Marinara and pastas were cooked the way your mother would have if she came from Brooklyn. I would stay away from the appetizers if your a true foodie but the entrees are the real deal, they are the reason the parking lot is crowed every night and are a reason to come back again and again....service is top notch as well....a nod to Kareem....thank you for a great family dinner. read more

Oregano's, at ANY of their Phoenix-area locations, is wonderful. Great food, no matter what you order. Love all the pizzas, the pastas are great, the salads are tasty, and the pizza cookie is epic! This isn't gourmet or fine dining, but for a casual meal it's great food, and the ambiance and service are great, too. read more

I had a delightful meal. Service was great. I love the casual atmosphere. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. I enjoyed the music and taped scenes of Sinatra. I hope you give this place a try once. If nothing else, you will walk out with a smile. read more

This location is outstanding with service and quality . The people are all very nice. My only comment is their pizza is loaded with salt and thus not as flavorful as others. We asked them once if we can get a no-salt or low-salt. But we're told they add no salt at all to their pizza. But other than that they seem to be incredibly nice and a good people ! We will continue to eat there, but probably will ask again about less salt on the pizzas read more
