    My friends recently hosted a private event at the patio and I was really glad that the dinner was hosted here as I don't really frequent pizza places. Otherwise I might not have set foot in this place for a long time, despite passing this place on the daily. It was a Thursday night and the place was moderately busy. It was clean and the staff were prompt with setting up the food for the event. I had Strawberry Lemonade, the Frozen Lemonade, Garlic Ginger Chicken Wings, and a MYRIAD of pizza. The pizzas were undoubtedly the best dishes that the restaurant served. Which is no surprise as it's called Pitfire Pizza and not Pitfire Chicken Wings or Pitfire Burgers. I don't know if I was just really thirsty since it was a hot day, but I was chugging the lemonade like there was no tomorrow. Either way, it was good enough for me to treat it like a bottomless beverage. For the pizza, I believe I had the BBQ Chicken and Field Mushroom. Pretty goated options, absolutely no wrong options here. The Garlic Ginger Chicken Wings had a really great dipping sauce to it, unfortunately I had to chew it for an unexpectedly long time to finally scarf it down. The consistency was like cardboard. It's also worth noting it took around 20 minutes for it to be served, and I had to follow up on it after 15 minutes of initally ordering it. So I'm definitely skipping that for next time. But hey, like I said, it's not called Pitfire Chicken Wings for a reason. I also want to add that I ordered the wings separately from what was provided at the event. Overall a really solid choice for food, just gotta be careful of the Garlic Chicken Wings in the future.

    Sausage Party Pizza

    I was pleasantly surprised with this pizza despite it being a chain restaurant! The crust is thin and the dough is delicious. They do not skimp on the toppings either. I got the Sausage Party pizza and it was delicious. Not too greasy either. Service was very quick. We had a party of 11 and were all served quickly after ordering on a busy Friday night. The restaurant has ample space for large or small parties both inside and outside. The ambiance is fun, noisy, and casual. Will definitely be back to try more dishes.

    Walked in and loved the ambiance. Super cute design. The service was great . Super friendly. The food all looks amazing. I got a personal size pizza and they had options to make a cheese substitute which I loved because I can't have cheese. It was super tasty and fresh ingredients.

    LOVE this spot!!! I was looking for a pizza place on a Thursday night around 8:30 PM, and most places were closing at 9. I saw this spot was open until 10, so we decided to give it a shot--and OMGEEEEEE!!! The whole vibe is sooo good, everything was super clean, and OMGEEEEEE the food!!! We had the Caesar salad, and it was aaamaaazingggggg!!! Then came the pizza... LOVE!!! The staff was super awesome and welcoming too! We will definitely be back!!!!

    Love coming to this place! Always something good for everyone in the family. Great atmosphere and wonderful service! Highly recommend to anyone who wants a great and reasonable meal. Most dishes are shareable for 1-2 ppl.

    EPIC. BBQ. CHICKEN.
    Nicholas H.

    We ordered the BBQ chicken pizza and the honey bear pizza and the garlic ginger chicken , everything we ate was very delicious and had lots of flavor. The garlic ginger chicken definitely is the winner and stands out the most and the pizza crust was probably the best I've had in a while from a quick service place. The BBQ chicken pizza probably needed just a little more sauce and the honey bear needed a little more sausage but in all this place has my recommendation if you're in the area. 10/10 I'll be back to try more of their selection of pizzas.

    ZOE'S PEPPERONI PIZZA
    Cindy T.

    Got the pepperoni pizza and it was delicious! Having it with hot honey on the side made it even better. I do wish I tasted more of the marinara, as it got lost in the cheese and pepperoni flavor. I also wish the crust was crispier. But overall, the pizza was very flavorful and tasty. I would come back to try their other flavors. Also got the Aloha Warrior IPA and the Cosmic Crisp cider which were delicious!

    chicken BONELESS GARLIC GINGER WINGS

    I GOT FOOD POISONING FROM THIS "CHICKEN" PLS DONT GO HERE . the chicken itself looked not like chicken. some of the chicken inside were purplish and very dark, not white meat. the batter was somewhat crispy but most was soggy. i really wish i had taken a pic of the purple meat but i was so unsatisfied and grossed out. when we first looked at the chicken we thought to ourselves "is this strips or bone in?" even though the menu described it as bones less. Not even 10 min later, my stomach was GRUMBLING AND HURTING SO BAD. i literally was on the toilet for less than 2 minutes with how bad my stomach was hurting. ive literally never shit this bad in my life.

    Only $10 each during happy hour! BONELESS GARLIC GINGER WINGS LRG BOLOGNESE LRG MAC + CHEESE
    Esther C.

    Parking will be crazy before an event so plan accordingly! It was fairly easy to park and empty on Sunday night my last visit. Their happy hour is every day from 2:30-5:30 & such a good deal! $10 select salads, pizzas, pastas & wings. Beers were $6. My toddler loves the bolognese (over the Mac - I was surprised). The Honey Bear pizza is the parents' favorite and the ginger wings were delicious. We'll probably skip the Mac next time (ours was bland) and try something else. If you have an Amex Plat card, this is a great place to use your quarterly $100 Resy credit! The interior is large and clean and customer service has always been great - I don't mind paying the extra "fee;" you can always request for them to take it off. Also, they have an outdoor dining area that is pup-friendly so we love bringing our dog when the weather is warmer. Note: they'll ask if you want marinara, ranch, etc. for dipping - just know there's a charge for it.

    Pesto chicken
    Tiffany M.

    Wanted the pesto chicken and noticed it was no longer on the menu, but they were still able to make it and it totally met expectations. Also one of the best Caesar salads I've had

    LITTLE GEM CAESAR
    Kayla S.

    This place was good! When you walk in, you order at the counter, and there are plenty of tables available. The staff keeps the dining area clean, and the tables are wiped down quickly. The food came out fast, starting with the Caesar salad. Just a heads up, it has a very strong anchovy flavor that felt a bit overpowering. The cheesy knots were amazing. They were warm, soft, and paired perfectly with the marinara sauce. My favorite item was definitely the Honey Bear pizza. The combination of sausage, spicy chili, and honey was delicious, and the thin crust had great flavor and texture. I would honestly come back just for that pizza. The only downside was the drinks. Unless you are getting a beer, I would not recommend them because the specialty drinks had a very lime heavy flavor. Overall, this is a solid spot, especially for that Honey Bear pizza.

    Diet Coke and small cheese pizza
    Nancy T.

    Had grandkids and wanted something fast and what they all like. We found a parking place and a nice large booth inside. Everyone was nice and friendly and the place was clean. Prices very reasonable including drinks. I got a taste of Melvin Heyz Mexican Lager, very good so I got a nice large glass. Kids had water and Diet Coke. The youngest ordered a cheese pizza. The rest of us (4) got a large Zoe's Pepperoni and Margherita. Not much left which is a good sign. They also had a full bar.

    Pepperoni

    Came here conveniently after watching a movie! We were greeted by some friendly workers who kindly told us to ask them any questions that we might have about the menu. The interior is pretty clean and I appreciate how they have stations were you can treat yourself to some things such as utensils, to go boxes, and even add ons for your food. Thankfully, we actually arrived at a time where happy hour was happening! This meant that as opposed to paying full price for the pizzas we wanted (about $17 each), they came out to be $10 each, which is an amazing deal for how big the pizzas are! Not only was our order rather cheap, but it was delicious! These pizzas stood out in that they have great cheese flavor! The crust and sauce in the other hand did not seem to stand out as much but nor was it bad in any way. I would definitely come back for more happy hour items or if I am really feeling it, maybe some other items that this place has to offer. If you are craving some solid pizza especially after a movie, this is the spot to visit especially in the afternoon!

    Everyone needs livable wages!

    This is my new go to place for pizza and I've been telling my fellow foodies in the area about it…read more Let me preface this review by saying that I'm usually a Pizza Hut customer and had been pretty happy with my local location, great pizza, frequent discounts and friendly service. I came across Pizza Guys, because my child's school was running a fundraiser here, so I didn't have high expectations, I mean, it's a fundraiser after all... Wow was I in for a surprise! There are 3 reasons why I would give a restaurant my business, all 3 reasons being equally important. One, it has to be yummy. The pizza here was surprisingly yummy and they didn't skimp on the toppings! Two, the price has to be right. The prices were reasonable and when they run a sale, I am getting excellent value for my money. Three, it should have decent service at a minimum. This is where it blew me away! The service here was not only excellent, it was the kind that retains customers and loyalty. In fact, I will buy from this location regardless of whether there was an active sale at the time and even if the location is out of my way. The people at the Katella location are usually friendly and nice. However, the dynamic duo that has earned my loyalty to this location are Bruno and Josh. Long story short, my kids like their pizza square cut, but at some point, the app ordering system was changed so that I can no longer choose that option and it's too much hassle to call in every time, so I went several orders/months with the typical cut/slice. When I went in last night for my app placed pizza, I was happy to see that Bruno and Josh were behind the counter, since I hadn't seen them in a long time (I've been visiting on their off days), but what surprised me was that Bruno actually remembered that I prefer my pizza square cut and Josh had the pizza/toppings just the way my kids like it. The guys did that for me, without my asking! Wow!!! I can't believe that Bruno actually remembered my preference after all this time!!! As busy and lazy as I am, I feel compelled to write this review, because what they did was above and beyond expectations. Bruno and Josh are young men, I have no doubt that if/when they outgrow this location, just the attitude and attention to detail alone, both essential entrepreneur mindsets, will get them far in life. I wouldn't be surprised if they have their own franchised Pizza Guys locations later and I'd be one of the first customers to visit and say, I told you so! ;)

Now the to-go order I had was NOT at all acceptable. I ordered the stuffed manicotti and it simply tasted off. The sauce was great but the stuffing tasted a bit bitter. I only had a few bites and threw it away. I don't see myself ordering from here again.

When I placed my order, I specifically asked for pepperoni, ricotta cheese, and basil. The cashier told me the order would look different on the receipt, so when I saw salami listed, I assumed that was what she meant and didn't think much of it. Additionally, I placed an order for a 2-liter Dr Pepper and five cups. When I asked for ice, the cashier initially took the cups and then she said there was no ice, but then I heard her inform her younger male coworker that there actually was ice. Mind you they gave ice to other customers. She also made a comment about there being five of us. At that point, her attitude came across as unnecessarily petty and unprofessional. She later told me they didn't have basil, so I asked for olives as a replacement. We waited approximately 25-30 minutes for the pizza. When it finally came out, there was no pepperoni on it, despite pepperoni being part of the order I originally placed. I showed the cashier my receipt and explained that I had specifically requested pepperoni, ricotta cheese, and basil. She insisted that she had repeated my order correctly, but the receipt actually reflected the items I had requested. Instead of simply correcting the mistake, I was charged extra for the pepperoni, even though it was an issue with the original order. On top of that and once our pepperoni was added the second time, we waited about 15 plus, additional minutes. the younger male employee was trying to flag me down to come get my order rather than bringing it to the table. At that point, after everything else, I said "No, you bring it over here." The audacity of them requesting I go pick up my pizza was crazy. I really hope that their manager reads this review. I'll be reviewing this on their website as well. The pizza itself was alright, but honestly, it wasn't worth dealing with the attitude, the ordering mistake on their part, the extra charge, and the overall experience. I came in willing to give this place a try, but unfortunately, I won't be coming back, and neither will the families of the children I brought along with us. They already spoke to their parents about this I unnecessary experience. Mistakes happen, but how you treat customers when mistakes happen makes all the difference. This experience was disappointing from start to finish. The staff was immature and the cashier (only female) had a crappy attitude.
