Finally got to check out Prime Pizza located in Brea, which is a New York-style pizza shop. We ordered the thicker cuts of pizza which were a square-style pizza and I got the Grandma's style. This is just pretty much mozzarella, sauce, and cheese. Which is simple but tasty! I love the crispiness of the pizza and the jalapeño ranch with it together was great. I don't eat pork so this was one of the styles that I could eat. Overall I thought the flavor and style were pretty nice. Maybe next time I will try their New York slices!

Don't do take out! The pizza gets extremely soggy to the point where it rips when you pick it up. But if you choose to eat there, seating is limited to 2 tables, 4 chairs each. There's a center courtyard with more in-n-out style outdoor tables but shade is limited depending on the where the sun's positioned. Pick up experience was long. I was told it'll take 25 min after ordering but it took 40min.

I've ordered from this place multiple times, and to be honest, this is my favorite pizza place. Everything here is delicious, but my favorite is the vodka chicken pizza. Their sauces are flavorful, and their toppings are always fresh, high-quality, and delicious. They have both regular ranch and jalapeño ranch, but the jalapeño ranch is the one I go with. It has a nice kick and goes really well with the pizza.

First time trying Prime Pizza out as it was recommended by a friend and seeing reviews it seemed very worthwhile to try. This location is a bit small, there is no indoor seating, only outdoor seating available. However, when you walk in, you can tell that this place is serious about pizza. You have several trays of pizza by the slice right in your face the moment you walk in. You have New York Style slices and square slices to pick from immediately that they will reheat in the over for you. Or you can order a full pie from the get go. We opted to get three slices: BBQ Chicken, White, and Vodka. Of the three, BBQ chicken was my favorite - the most flavor and the most feeling of a bang for your buck. The Vodka was also good. The white was okay (I probably wouldn't get this one again). The workers here were great they. Super helpful and talkative. They shared a lot, like the fact that the crust is actually sourdough. Definitely worth a quick visit if you want Pizza.

Excellent Pizza place in Brea. I'd been meaning to try Prime Pizza for quite some time and it was worth the wait! Really good pizza and garlic knots! I ordered take out and the turnaround was very quick and the pozza was still hot when I got it home. Definite thumbs up for Prime Pizza!

Four adults decide to try Prime pizza at Brea. The pizza shop is small, New York style, and welcoming. Basically all of us pick lunch special, but upgrading to pizza of our choice. For example, I have one Sicilian pizza for under a dollar more. Pizzas are thin, crispy and yummy. However one of my slice is kind of burned. Service is friendly as you can choose to order to go or wait outside and they bring the pizzas to you - which we did. It's a good pizza parlor if you are looking for good thin New York style pizza.

We arrived on a Friday night and there was a line, but it moved fast. Ordered pizza slices of: -Vodka (5/5) -White (5/5) -Cheese (4/5) -Sicilian square (4/5) All the slices had a crispy undercarriage with no flop. Ingredients were high quality. Favorite was the white pizza!! It's now one of my top 3 favorite white pizzas. Good amount of sauce & cheese because places usually skimp out on it which makes the slice dry. Also got the Caesar salad (5/5). Crisp, fresh greens, a good portion for 2 to share, and a yummy caesar dressing to drizzle. Love the late night vibe this place brings because customers are all sitting outside since there's no seating inside. Just wish the surrounding buildings in this lot had some night life or other eateries!! Maybe one day..

Was craving pizza for lunch so decided to give Prime Pizza a try. The store is nice, new and beautiful and they offer a lunch special - which I thought was a win, win. But reality is you get over cooked pizza. For starters, the store wasn't crowded, but people were waiting because one person needed to sign in and the other guy standing around said he can't clock in yet so can't take my order. I honestly don't get why he was standing by an iPad to take orders if that was the case. Someone else ended up taking my order and before I could make a receipt selection the kid who told me he couldn't take my order starts clocking in takes over the screen so I can't get a receipt or register for an account. He later had to go back to my transaction so I could get both. Now the pizza.. just my luck the kid standing around ends up reheating the pizza slices I ordered. But instead of reheating pizzas in sequence the orders came in, he took the order after mine and reheated their pizza first. The only problem is I didn't want a corner slice, but the person who ordered after me got the middle slice, so I was told my only option was a corner. When I got home to eat my pizza, I was super disappointed. If you look at the picture, you can tell my pizza was way over baked. It wasn't exactly warm either. I tasted burnt bits and this maybe my worst pizza experience ever. There's a place in Costa Mesa called Sugo that has a similar concept, but they've mastered their process and their pizza is amazing! Prime Pizza can probably learn something from a place like that because what I ordered was a super disappointment. The normal round cut was overcooked and dry - and the square pizza - it was overcooked on the sides, but the middle wasn't so bad.

Apparently everyone knows about Prime Pizza except me lol. This new location is close to home, and we were in a pizza kinda mood, so I decided to check it out. Inside it's small, and it's more of a take out or order ahead type of place. There are a few tables and chairs outside if you do wanna eat there. I ordered ahead and had to wait a few minutes which was fine with me. However, their line and pick up system is a little chaotic and they had people coming in and heading straight to the counter for pick ups while the rest of us were waiting in line. Customer service was friendly overall. The pizza itself is good, but honestly it isn't going to replace my go to spot in La Habra (Blackjack). It's a bit greasy and didn't really pack a flavor punch.

John M.

Waited 2 hours and the line devolved into complete chaos. I only got my pizza just as I was asking for a refund. I didn't trust they would process it, the haphazard way they were calling out orders randomly and holding a bunch of orders in the back. No organization. You can't do this to pizza. New York slices has to be fast. They also should have started handing out freebies or coupons. It was a real waste of a Friday night when you're trying to get something quick.

I've had a lot of pizza in my lifetime but this was my first time having NY style. When I saw that Prime Pizza was opening up near me, I was excited to try it out. After reading the majority of the reviews, I had high expectations even though it's so early on. Here's what I ordered: **Pepperoni Pie: Amazing! Loved how crispy thin the pie was and the crust was even better! Definitely my favorite style of pizza, hands down. (5/5) **Garlic Knots: Absolutely delicious! This container was oozing with that delicious garlic flavor that everybody loves. The bread was so moist and was bursting with flavor. Good by itself but even better with the cup of marinara sauce provided. (5/5) For context, this spot opens at 11 AM. I placed an online order at 10:57 AM to pickup at 11:30 AM. I then received a text telling me that my order was ready at 11:23 AM! Once I entered, I gave them my name and my order was brought out instantly! The place was packed when I arrived, which is already a great sign. Everyone working the front seemed to be up to par with the business model and there were smiles everywhere. There are plenty of decent pizza spots out here in the Fullerton/Brea area but Prime Pizza takes over the top spot. This is one of the best pizzas I've ever had in 34 years of living. This will be my new go-to spot and I'm super excited to have my next pizza experience from here again very soon!

Scott O.

So here is my take on the new pizza shop in Brea...Prime Pizza delivers a classic New York-style experience, especially when the pizza is fresh out of the oven. The thin, crispy crust is perfect, and the slices are impressively large. They also have proper ovens for reheating slices, which is a big plus if you're grabbing pizza by the slice. I had a pepperoni slice and we also ordered a full pepperoni pie. Both were quite good when warm. Once the pepperoni pizza cooled down, though, the cheese became a little plastic-like and lost some of its flavor. They're also fairly frugal with the pepperoni, which ends up putting the spotlight onto the cheese. Overall it was a good experience. I enjoy my New York-style pizza, but I probably won't drive 15 miles just to grab a slice. Service was faster than they quoted. The space inside is standing only. Not much space to order really. The surprise standout was the garlic knots--they were really tasty, and honestly, I would drive a bit out of my way for those alone. All in all: decent pizza, great garlic knots, good stop if you're nearby--but not quite my pizza.

Amy P.

So far, I'm impressed with what Prime Pizza has to offer. Ordered the Pepperoni ($28) and the online ordering process was quick and seamless, with the pizza ready right on time. There's only one size available for whole pies, which actually makes ordering easier. I opted for the double-cut slices. The tomato sauce is a bit tangier than your average pizza, so that'll come down to personal preference. The crust is thin with a great crisp - it even held up well even after the trip home and sitting for a bit before eating. Will need to come back to try the square slices next time!

Came to check out prime pizza today not too busy, but as I am ordering many people coming behind me, that's a good sign they only have just a few tables outside, so if you're planning on eating here, it might not be a table for you unless you want to sit outside as well no tables inside. Tried a slice and ordered a whole pie to take home very good I will say crust and ingredients all fresh I can recommend for sure I will be back . read more

Went there for their opening day - had seen them during the construction and even stopped by while they were training.

Ordered the go-to - Pepperoni and some garlic knots. Hot, tasty and plenty of food. Can't wait to go back and try their other flavors. BBQ was calling my name as well as the spicy pepperoni.

THIS IS ONLY A TAKE OUT SPOT. Not all Prime locations are the same. Yes, I've been to all these locations and drive out of my way for either Burbank if I'm in the area or Sierra Madre. This still beats Prince street. This is definitely a franchise now and unfortunately Best to worst: Burbank - consistently good Fairfax Santa Monica Sierra Madre DTLA Brea food was not up to par with Burbank. The Detroit squares are as thick as the slices. No rise in the dough. This place has no seating. There's 4 tables out front, 2 (4 guests), 2 (2 guests), and some round tables by the plaza's trash cans. Direct sunlight. Maybe 3 tables? read more

Pretty mid-pizza. We ordered the veggie and vodka pizza and honestly they were pretty bland. I wish the sauce had more flavor and we could barely taste the cheese. As a vegetarian, I really wanted to like the veggie pizza, but I realized maybe kale isn't meant to go on pizza LOL also the mushrooms were a bit too chunky, I wish they were smaller. And once the pizza got to room temperature/cold, it got really chewy and a bit had to eat. Wishing the best for this pizza joint though and hopefully the feedback helps! read more

I am a bit of a pizza nerd and I am embarrassed to say I had never tried a Prime Pizza slice until today. In LA, I've had Appolonias, Quarter Sheets, Danny Boys, LaSorteds, but that's 45-60 minutes each way living in North OC. Having Prime Pizza in North OC is monumental for residents. I ordered the pepperoni round. Just the right amount of crisp/chew, sauce/cheese. The ying and the yang. Ordered a cup of their pesto sauce to dip the crust and garlic knots in. Spectacular. Prime Pizza knows what they are doing when they open up new stores. The kitchen is running on all cylinders. The FOH crew are still feeling around a little bit, but that's expected. I am usually afraid to go to a new restaurant on opening week but this store was humming along perfectly. Much respect to Zac on his tenth store and sorry I waited so long! This is the best NY I have ever had. read more

We ordered a square pie, half Sicilian and half spicy pepperoni. If you've had Prince Street Pizza, this isn't really comparable. It's a solid pizza overall, but the sauce felt a bit lacking in flavor. The crust was excellent. It took about 30 minutes for the pizza to be ready, and they don't allow you to wait inside while your order is prepared. Overall, it's a decent spot, just nothing particularly memorable. read more

Carriage doesn't flop and they always add the right amount of zing to their sauce. So happy that they're so close now. I usually hit up the one in Fairfax but now I don't have to travel so far.

I've been waiting for this place up open for a few weeks now. I Just happened to notice it when driving by. I've been looking for a good New York style pizza joint for a while now. I went at lunch and ordered the lunch special, Two slices of cheese and a soda. I like to say if the pizza is good you should first order just cheese. It didn't disappoint! The sauce has good flavor and it had the perfect amount of cheese for a New York cheese pizza. I do want to note that this location is pretty much a take out location. There are only two small tables outside with two chairs each. I was lucky and one of the tables was open. It was pretty busy at lunch. While eating I noticed a group of 4 ladies walking over from downtown Brea area to have pizza and ended up not ordering and walking back since there was no where to sit and eat. I don't know if all locations are like this since it was my first experience. So just know it's best to plan to take it with you. But I will be back! read more

Perfectly made pizzas for on the go adventures. I love that the pizza is not greasy, so I can touch the controls and instruments and not get grease on it. the crust is nice and crunchy and really light with a bit of charing underneath to give that extra rustic flavor, but it's also not flaky to where I get it all over the place.

As a born and raised new yorker this place is definitely the closest you'll get to a NYC slice in all of OC. I got the 4 pie deal with salad and knots for my impromptu moving in party. Admittedly we did eat it a lil cold but the flavor was still there. Even better as leftovers. Great way to settle into the new place but still feel like home. The marinara sauce for the garlic knots was insane! Everything came packed up separately so our salad and croutons didn't get soggy. They provided all utensils too. I know most places you have to specify if you want them nowadays so it was a nice not needing to unpack the kitchen right away to enjoy our meal. Also the whole meal was ready early on a saturday night! We were def getting hangry so it was really great timing for it to be done 15min earlier. Definitely ordering again. Their square pizzas and pastas are def next on the try list. read more

East Coast style, west Cost Vibes! I see you Prime Pizza! You have captured the love and admiration of me and my family. From the first euphoric bite, to the bitter sweet long walk to the blue trash can with my empty box, all we talked about was our next visit to this new gem in our hometown. Thank you, for honoring us with your greatness! That first bite, took me straight back to John's of Bleeker st. But even better, because I didn't have to take 2 trains and walk 2 block to get to you. If you're wondering, what makes this place special. Literally, you can taste the freshness. Perfect sauce, great crisp, perfectly topped with cheese and the exact amount of pepperoni.

My husband and I love trying new pizza places. We are very open-minded when it comes to trying different styles of pizzas. New York style deep dish, etc. I'm sad to report we were very bummed. We ordered the following: 1/2 Sicilian and 1/2 Spicy Pep. A slice of pepperoni and Lemon Pepper Wings. Not let's break it down. The Pizza: overall the taste of the pizza was very good. However, I must admit that the sauce was a little bit on the bitter side and by the time we ate it, it was extremely soggy. The pesto on the Sicilian pizza tasted a little sour and was not my favorite combination. The spicy pepperoni was probably our favorite of the two. Sidenote, we ordered our pizza to be well done but noticed that it was not. Like I said, the pizza was just very soggy. Lemon Pepper Wings: we love a good lemon pepper wing, but I will say that these wings were extremely salty. The salt was very overpowering. Like I said, we were disappointed, but will be giving Prime Pizza another opportunity. Instead of take out, we will be eating it right then and there and seeing if that changes things. Ohh and the ranch is amazing!! Best ranch I've had in a while!!!! read more

We were so excited to go to this Prime Pizza after always having to drive out to Burbank! We ordered by slice and it was very fast. They told us it was a 5 minute wait but called us up in less than 2 minutes. Our pizza was COLD. Not even remotely warm. We were really disappointed. I understand that there was a line and that quick service is desired but at the cost of cold pizza...???? We're very disappointed. My boyfriend said that if this was our first time trying Prime, we would NOT choose to come back. But we know how good it CAN be from the Burbank one. I hope they fix the quality issue. The pizza itself was really good. As good as it can be when its cold. Another note. We got the text message that the pizza was done 5-7 minutes into eating, which makes me wonder if our pizza should have been cooking longer per protocol. Again, hoping our next experience is better and that the pizza is actually warm. read more

Was looking for NY Style Pizza Pie and this one was close by so I tried it! I would say the pizza felt a little overcooked (crust was darker and crunchier than I liked) which made it taste more bready/toasted when I bit into it as supposed to cheesy/saucy. I still enjoyed it! The garlic knots were not as toasted as I would have liked them to be, but the flavor was there! Would definitely order again and try different pies! read more

They sliced it up like a pickle and should have cut it like stick. Avoid in my opinion. The calamari appetizer was good, but not great. The Creamy Arrabbiata was too spicy for me and I just didn't care for the sauce. I wouldn't get again. The chicken was diced up so small it was hard to find and the vegetables just didn't match the dish. I gave 4 stars for the 2 good dishes.

Our server Brian was exceptional from the get-go. Attentive, personable, and genuinely accommodating. He's the kind of server that really enhances the whole dining experience. As for the food, we went with the sautéed mushrooms to start, which were buttery, satiating and just done right. Then, came the Shrimp Scampi & Scallops in pink sauce (which was highly recommended by Brian), and honestly, that dish alone is worth the drive to this establishment. The pink sauce had this beautiful balance between the creaminess and the tanginess of marinara, in addition to the shrimp and scallops that were cooked perfectly, without a rubbery texture. Please try the pink sauce. We also ordered the Veal Parmesan, which had a bit of the crispy ends (as the veal was very thin), but still had the factors of a well-cooked dish. Everything definitely tasted like it was made with care, not hastily (even though we got there pretty late). It is also located within a plaza, so parking is plentiful. So, if you're looking for solid, honest Italian food in the area, Fratellino's is the answer. I can't wait to go back to try the other dishes. A++

This is a tough review to write because it appears to be a family-run business, but hopefully the criticism is taken constructively. From the moment we walked in, the experience felt unwelcoming. There didn't seem to be a host or anyone greeting customers. We stood there somewhat aimlessly while employees behind the counter looked over at us without really acknowledging us or explaining where to go. One particularly strange thing we noticed was customers being turned away at the door and told there would be a wait, despite several tables appearing to be open. Then, about five minutes later, another couple walked in and was seated without any issue. Maybe there was an explanation for it, but from a customer's perspective, it was confusing and came across as very inconsistent. Unfortunately, the meal didn't improve things. The food was very bland and lacked the flavor I would expect from a good Italian restaurant. The bread we received tasted stale and was noticeably burnt. For comparison, I would honestly put the overall food quality below what you would expect from Olive Garden. Table service was almost nonexistent. Getting assistance throughout the meal was difficult, and even trying to pay the bill and leave felt like a journey. What concerned me even more was seeing several other customers spoken to in a way that came across as unnecessarily rude. I really wanted to understand why this place has such strong reviews, but based on our experience, I simply can't recommend it. Better hospitality, more consistent treatment of customers, more attentive service, and improvements to the food would go a long way.

Otherwise, you get what you get here. Just generic Italian food, nothing special. The cook/chef guy looked like he knew what he was doing but I really wanted to try something that he would cook. It felt like he was forced to cook exactly how the owners want it. Generic bland Italian food. Overall if you and your loved ones are craving Italian, I'd look elsewhere.

My husband and I were really excited to try this pizza place but unfortunately encountered the same issues a lot of people have already described. When we finally got to try the pizza and wings, they were both really cold and the pizza crust was hard. We only live about a 10 minutes drive away so it seems like our food had been ready long before we received it. We placed on online order around 5:30pm for pick up at 6:38pm. We arrived around 6:30pm and noticed the long lines outside so we expected a delay but not for pizza and wings to take 2.5 hours to be ready. We got down at 6:38pm to ask if our pizza was ready, an employee looked at a written list and said it was not ready and we would get a text when it was. No additional wait time estimate was given. We decided to give them the benefit of the doubt because of how busy it was but regret not asking for a refund right then and going somewhere else. We decided to wait in the parking lot and got through most of the first half of the Lakers v. Clippers game when we decided to get down and ask again around 7:30pm. We were not able to speak to an employee because of how busy it was but overheard an employee telling a customer that they were just getting to the orders that were supposed to be ready for 6:30pm pick up. The lack of communication was the most frustrating part because it became clear they have been slammed with orders and knew they were behind. This was definitely a leadership issue because a general announcement to the large crowd waiting outside or a text message letting folks know their order status would have been appreciated. Also, knowing how insane the wait times were, customers should have also received free garlic knots or food items during the wait. We went back in at 8pm and managed to speak to an employee who said they would go to the back and check. We had to follow up with the employee about 5 minutes later who said our ticket was up and it should be out soon. We finally got our order at 8:10pm. We didn't receive the text that our order was ready until 8:23pm so if we hadn't gotten down to check our order would have been sitting there for 13 minutes longer than it already was. As someone mentioned, I hope they fix these issues because community truly wants to show up but last night may have deterred a lot of people from coming back. read more

We were really excited to try Prime Pizza in Brea, especially as a new establishment. We completely understand that new restaurants are going to be busy -- and we truly wanted to give them grace. Unfortunately, our experience felt less like "new and busy" and more like a lack of management and organization. We placed our order at noon for a 6:30 pm pickup. We arrived at 6:20 and were surprised to see a crowd of at least 35-50 people outside waiting for their food. We gave our name at the door and were told it would be "out soon." That turned into over an hour and 10 minutes of waiting outside in the cold. During that time, multiple DoorDash orders were being called out while dozens of families who had pre-ordered hours earlier were still waiting. There was little to no communication about delays, and no one came out to address the growing crowd. When our pizza finally came out, it was cold -- like it had been sitting on the counter for quite a while. My husband went inside to ask about a refund, but there was no one available to help the line of understandably frustrated customers. The employee behind the counter was taking more to-go orders while at least 30 parties were still outside waiting for food they had already ordered and paid for. We understand growing pains, especially for a new business. But in moments like this, management needs to step up -- pause incoming orders, communicate clearly with customers, and prioritize the large number of people already waiting. It felt like there was no leadership presence when it was needed most. We truly hope they work out the kinks, because the community seems excited to support them. But this experience was incredibly disappointing. read more

I recently visited the Prime Pizza Mission Viejo restaurant and had a fantastic experience. I tried the meatball sandwich, and it was delicious and impressively massive! The bread tasted incredibly fresh, and the marinara sauce had a slight kick to it that really elevated the flavor without overpowering the sandwich. The meatballs were absolutely fabulous coupled with the cheeses melted on top... very tender, not dry at all, and clearly made with nice Italian spices that taste like they could come straight from someone's "Nonna." The staff was also very kind and attentive. My order was processed quickly and efficiently, which made the whole experience even better. I also tried the cheese pizza, which was sooooooooo yummy! The pizza slice has just the perfect amount cheeses. What really stood out was that it wasn't greasy or dripping with oil like others I have tried and it felt lighter and well-balanced while still being very flavorful. Overall, I was very satisfied with my visit. I left happy and would definitely recommend the meatball sandwich and the cheese pizza. I am frequently stopping in for the pizza slices and San Pellegrino Sparkling water ;) Highly recommend Prime Pizza in Mission Viejo, or other locations for your business meetings, Birthday parties and other events. Enjoy! read more

Overall, the experience was a little disappointing. The pizza itself is pretty solid -- definitely the highlight and worth trying. Unfortunately, the garlic knots didn't live up to the same standard. The biggest letdown was the 25-minute wait just to buy slices, which felt excessive and took away from the overall experience. This is not a quick spot to grab pizza at the moment, so plan accordingly. Another downside was the parking lot area -- there was a noticeable sewer smell right in front of the entrance, likely from the access point, which doesn't make for the best first impression. Hoping they can tighten up the service and address the exterior issue, because the pizza does have potential. read more

I had an incredible first-time experience at Prime Pizza! From the moment I walked in, I was greeted warmly by Danny, who made me feel right at home. She was super knowledgeable about the menu and steered me in the right direction with her recommendations. I went with her suggestion of the Spicy Pepperoni slice and the Market slice (which she mentioned is a special find!). Both were even better than expected--perfectly crispy in all the right places, with stringy cheese and clearly fresh ingredients. I topped it all off with the watermelon Italian ice for dessert, which was the perfect finish. Huge thanks to Danny for the stellar service and great picks. I'll definitely be back! read more

3 hours for pizza is genuinely crazy lol. Being a new place can be tough I totally understand. But when people are starting to wait for over an hour that's when they customer service should start kicking in. People were allowed refunds, but for the people who were waiting, didn't receive any coupons/freebies, or anything. I came for an early dinner at 5pm and didn't get to eat until 8:30pm. Unlike The Melt that just opened at the Brea Mall, they didn't connect with the customers, or at lesst explain why it was taking a long time. Prime Pizza yall need to take some notes from your other new restaurant competitor. The food was good but not 3 hour wait good. read more

I placed an online delivery order at 5pm, and it's now 7:16 and my order still isn't ready. I called the restaurant and they said, "Sorry, we don't know when it's going to be ready." What kind of customer service is this? Waiting over two hours for a pizza is crazy. At least get the timing right. At this point I'm committed and can't cancel since we have a few hungry kids waiting. Update#1 it's now 7:53 and I'm still waiting. Update#2 It's 8:13 pm and it's still not ready. I've honestly lost hope in this place. I won't be ordering from here again. Save your time and support other local restaurants instead. read more

Prime Pizza just opened in Brea and it's a great new spot in town. It has that classic NY slice shop feel. You walk in, pick a few slices from the display, they heat them up, hand them to you, and you're eating within minutes. Exactly how a slice shop should work. The crust was thin with a nice chew and crisp edge. The slices weren't floppy, which I appreciated. They held up well and had a good balance of sauce and cheese. Simple, straightforward pizza done right. The staff was friendly and gave solid recommendations when we asked. Easy place to stop in for a quick bite. Definitely glad to have this in Brea. read more

Ordered a pepperoni slice and a spicy pepperoni square slice today. Pepperoni slice: crust was thin, crispy, and had a bit of chew to it. Zero flop when holding the slice up. Sauce was well-balanced and not overly tangy or sweet. Pepperoni was flavorful and are the kind where the edges curl up. Square slice: this is where it's at. Crust had good crisp, wasn't overly heavy, and had just the right amount of airyness. The sauce was the star of the show - spicy, flavorful, and not too thin. Pepperoni was the same as the regular slice. I'll absolutely be returning! read more

Absolutely loved Prime Pizza in Brea. The pizza was hands down some of the best I've had perfectly crispy crust, fresh toppings, and so much flavor in every bite. The staff was incredibly friendly and made the whole experience even better. You can tell this place takes pride in their food and customer service. The restaurant was clean, the atmosphere was fun and welcoming, and everything came out fast and fresh. Easily my new favorite pizza spot. If you're in Brea and want amazing pizza, this place is a must try. read more

Had a great experience at Prime Pizza in Brea. The pizza was really good and the salad was fresh and flavorful too. Everything tasted fresh and the portions were solid. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The restaurant was clean and had a nice atmosphere to sit and enjoy dinner.

Terrible experience from start to finish. We were told a reasonable wait time for our pizzas, but ended up waiting over 2 hours with barely any updates. To make matters worse, everyone in our group got food poisoning later that night. This goes beyond bad service -- it's a serious food safety issue. Absolutely would not recommend. read more

I've been to Chicago, and I have to say, this deep-dish pizza really takes me back. The pizza is…read moredelicious, and the service was great. The place itself is on the smaller side with limited seating, so in my opinion it's definitely more of a takeout spot. Grab your pizza, take it home, and enjoy!

Tony's Little Italy "authentic" Chicago Deep Dish Pizza is a $10 pizza masquerading as a $42 pizza…read more Tony's "Chicago-Style" (it only looks like one) is closer to Little Caesar's than a true Chicago masterpiece. I tried Tony's Little Italy Pizza in Placentia for the first time and I can attest that THIS IS IN NO-WAY AN "AUTHENTIC CHICAGO DEEP DISH PIZZA" as advertised. It's not even close. I can't fault the enthusiasm of family frontmen like Taylor or his Uncle, Tony, for their contagious enthusiasm for their product, but all other comparisons end there. I lived in Chicago for more than a decade working for Leo Burnett Advertising/Chicago where the real Chicago deep dish pizza's, the standards by which you would judge "authentic," are Giordano's, Gino's East, Pizzaria Uno, and Lou Malnati's (a distant 4th in the rankings). These pizzas are HEAVY with quality ingredients and though deep dish, the crust is something that never gets in the way. In TRUE CHICAGO DEEP DISH PIZZA ingredients are 90% of the pizza, the crust 10% or less. The opposite is the case at Tony's where they make pizza's that are ALL dough and FEW ingredients. Tony's Little Italy Pizza offers a poor rendition of true Chicago Deep Dish Pizza. I ordered a 12" sausage, spinach, and mushroom - the exact same pizza I'd order at Giordano's, Gino's East, Pizzaria UNO, or Lou Malnati's countless times. What I got was a pizza that is 90% tasteless dried bread called a crust and a few tablespoons of ingredients (sausage, spinach, mushrooms) disguised under a heavy tomato sauce. In many places the unappetizing crust extended all the way to the surface hidden only by the tomato sauce topping on my pizza. Looks good but the deception ends there. I got almost no cheese, few mushrooms, skimpy sausage, and miserly spinach. This may be what one call's Chicago STYLE (and that's what Tony's should call it) pizza out here on the west coast, but this pizza definitely would not carry its own weight in Chicago. If you've eaten Chicago Deep Dish Pizza in Chicago where I've been you will easily be able to relate to everything I am saying. If you've never had a real Chicago Deep Dish Pizza then be forewarned. This isn't the real deal. It's what Little Caesar's would do if they tried to sell Chicago Deep Dish Pizza. All dough, no substance. As Scotty said in Star Trek TOS, " Fool me once-shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me." We won't be going back. Appearances are deceiving!

It tasted like a cheesy garlic bread, with the sweet potato puree. The crust is fresh, fluffy, and delicious! The staff and the chef were all very friendly. I'm looking forward to trying this local spot out again and supporting this business!

The restaurant is small, with a few tables both indoors and outdoors, and it was clean. The menu had a variety of options from pasta to pizza to breadsticks. The breadsticks were delicious (but the sizes were a lot smaller when we ordered the second time around) and cheese rolls were mediocre. Unfortunately, the pizza was disappointing. It was soft, soggy, and seemed almost undercooked, which affected the overall experience. The service was okay, nothing exceptional. Overall, I might go back to try their pasta, but I won't be getting their pizza anymore.

On a late Monday afternoon, we were seated immediately at a table against the back wall with comfortable padded bench seating. We were quickly greeted by our server who brought us complementary sourdough bread bites with olive oil flavored with herbs and spices. We came here since my girlfriend was craving their Tostada pizza (thin crust, black beans, queso and Monterey jack cheese, lettuce, tortilla strips, scallions, herb ranch, roasted tomato salsa, $20). I decided to stick with the Mexican theme and ordered the Carne Asada pizza (marinated steak, cilantro pesto, shaved poblano peppers, yellow onion, mozzarella and Monterey jack cheese, cilantro, served with roasted salsa verde, $21). About fifteen minutes later, our server arrived with my pizza. Unfortunately, he had some bad news that the kitchen had accidentally dropped her pizza and they were remaking it right away. We were offered a free dessert to make up for it. Her pizza finally arrived about ten minutes later. We have had these pizzas before and enjoyed them again. They are pretty filling and we both took home several slices for later. For our free dessert, we had the mini butter cake flight (dark chocolate & brownie crumble, fresh strawberries in puree, and smoked bacon & maple, all served on small butter cakes with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream). They were all good, and this plate is a perfect sweet finish for two that won't leave you in a sugar coma. Our server Daniel was very friendly, and very apologetic about the kitchen mishap. I appreciated the free dessert, but in hindsight her pizza should have probably been comped instead since I was almost done eating by the time her pizza finally arrived. We will continue to return periodically or order delivery via DoorDash, which is our usual method.
