I was hoping to try this place out. Vegan friendly (per reviews), local Upland business, I'm all about it. Unfortunately, the gentleman who answered the phone was not only unfriendly but just provided poor customer service. I am not writing this review to hurt the business, I'm actually hoping they read this and realize every interaction is an opportunity to create a new customer or to really turn someone off. I am a rational, flexible person who works in customer service daily. If you can't help me now, totally fine, but don't tell me all of your problems and basically brush me off and tell me to call "later" when I'm trying to place a costly order. The search for food for 60 people for a party goes on and, unfortunately, I will likely not be trying this place in the future. read more

Ever heard of the phrase don't judge a book by its cover? If you were to look up Riza Pizza it would say just that..... Order a salad, Chubby Sticks or Pizza you are going to re wave top quality produce.... Mario is quite a character, go there once by the time you go back the second time even if it's two months later you remember your name and maybe even what you ordered..... Best kept secret in Upland! Thanks Mario for the years of great food and great service read more

It was good pizza. The stuffed crust things are also good. The place is pretty rundown so you aren't going to dine in. But you should go and help them build it up. I did. read more

This pizza is better than any pizza around here and now he delivers. The owner super down to earth and has an Italian attitude. Everyone needs to try it at least once. Trust me I'm picky! read more

My First time I've tried this place was last year, and a year later I STILL LOVE IT! The pizza is delicious, full of flavor and the breadsticks are ADDICTING! We usually come to just pick up but decided to bring the whole family and dine in. The staff is welcoming, and made sure we knew about the specials. They were very accommodating, making sure we had everything we needed and making sure we enjoyed our food. Thank You Rizza Pizza! This is gonna be our forever pizza spot! read more

Ok so the owner reminds of the soup nazi. He flipped out over the phone once because I asked for deliver and on another visit for carry out he was yelling at a women in the kitchen to the point she was crying...... BUT the pizza is amazing and worth the drama. Best pizza I've ever had hands down!!! I will bow down to you, you looney pizza man. read more

I hadn't been back to Rizza pizza for several years but I was pleasantly surprised to see the same nice gentleman running the place and enjoyed the same tasty grub. Imagine someone willing to take your custom pizza order without trying to charge you for 10 additional toppings or say they don't have a button for that ... yes, some pizza makers still have common sense and offer great customer service! Happy to get reintroduced to an old favorite, and as always, a great value. read more

If you are serious about your pizza, this place is a hidden gem. I used to come to this place in the mid 90's when it was owned by a Russian family. It was known for very inexpensive ok quality food. Well after my brother came to visit I thought I would try it again for old time's sake and I was very glad I did! It has been under new ownership and is now more gourmet instead of your typical fast food chain pizza place. The large weighs about twice as much as a typical large from Pizza Hut or Papa John's and is loaded with toppings and has a crust so good you could eat it by itself(most pizzas the crust is hard and chewy, but the crust here is soft and golden brown). I can honestly say that there is no other place in the area that I've tried that even comes close to the taste and texture of this pizza. I have tried most of the top rated pizza places on yelp in the area, and although some of them are good, they are not in the same league as Rizza Pizza. If you are big on customer service or having your pizza within 15 minutes of ordering, then this is probably not the place to go(even though in my experience the owners are friendly enough, but just very busy working the kitchen). On average I find it takes about 30 to 40 minutes for a large pizza, but this is no big deal once you taste this pizza! If all you care about is getting one of the best pizzas, if not the best pizza in town, then you have to try this place. Also try the chubby sticks.. those are tasty little suckers! read more

The chubby sticks and pizza are amazing. The owner is always so nice to my husband and I. I will definitely keep coming back to this place

Loved the Pizza cheesy , fresh veggies , crispy crust and soft inside , as we waited he gave us a sample of chubbies and oh my our new favorite spot.. Antipasto salad was so good and fresh the experience was awesome and to compare it among other places we have ate at we will return . The owner Mario his out of his way this should be how business grow with guests workers are friendly and kind . Five stars because this place deserves it read more

Normally love this place but yeah I agree his service is ridiculous usually I see past it because he means well but he is kind of a slop . Anyways I've been craving this place but they for some reason have the most ridiculous hours ever closed on Tuesday ? Finally got it and I got food poising I've been in bed all day I have a 2 month old to take care of so who would have thought I'd regret eating . Horrible will never come again and I've been going here for over 7 years. Health inspectors need to go because all we got was 4 chubbies and an order of wings . My nephew who is 6 got it as well because he at half a chubby . It's dough and pepperoni ? So what was so unsanitary that it sickened us ? read more

This place is never open on time. When he finally opens he makes u wait for the oven to warm up. I ordered 4 chubby sticks and wings. Everyone that ate the chubby stick has food poisoning including my 6 year old son. Definitely the last time I will be coming here. read more

Wow! Called in my order of just 1 large pizza....told me it would be ready in 15 minutes, went in 25 minutes later and they said I took too long??!? So they got rid of my pizza?...young girl in the front counter is super nice but the tall dark haired guy making the pizza is really rude, not sure if he's the owner or not....heard him mumbling things about me not picking up my pizza in the back counter....so anyways he said he was going to make it again so there I am waiting another "8" minutes which turned into 25 minutes along with other people that seemed like they had been waiting for a while and looked like they where loosing their patience. The only reason I waited so long was because I thought of a possible discount or a free pizza he might throw in there for waiting so dang long! But no, he didn't even apologize ....never going back there again! And FYI the pizza wasn't even that good, tasted like it was rushed. read more

Best in the IE, I prefer this place over anything u see on TV. Dudes a hard worker that runs the spot which is respectable.

One of the best pies in the area, located in kind of a dead strip mall but parking is easy. The sauce and crust are fantastic, the rizza is my favorite, lots of generous toppings and a great flavor combination! read more

Stopped in after a big let down at the dentist office next door...took a walk to find this pizza place quite and inviting... I may have been first costumer of the day I got there about 2:45 and ordered 3 Chubbys because I was hungry and as I had waited at the dentist office I looked up places to go after this visit because besides being hungry I'm depressed and need comfort food, this place has 4 and half stars and is 450 feet from where I sit, exit stage left... I'm out of that chair and walking straight to this Chubby Piece of heaven and I wait for about 15 mins. Not bad as I need time to unwind... pizza bread is ready with a fair amount of cheese and pepperoni! The pizza dough was so delish soft and crispy...Oh my these where to die for! Hot melted gooey cheese and yummy crispy pepperoni! Served with your choice of Ranch Dressing or Marinara sauce. I tried them both! Excellent, try this place, you won't be disappointed. read more

We love this place. The chubbies are so good. The pizza is so good. The calzones are so good. Everything is super yummy. Mario the owner is very friendly and makes you feel like family. The best pizza in the inland empire. read more

This place is definitely word of mouth just like how the Chef mentioned. We are out of state (from Texas) and found this gem and we can't say enough about the hospitality of the ste staff and the quality of the pizza. OMG! We ordered the small (4 or 6 slices) depending on the heaviness of the toppings and we were full to the core. read more

I found this place on yelp and saw the good reviews and yummy pics. I thought we'd give it a try. We ordered the pizza with chubbies special. Funny name, but some seriously kicka$$ food. We even had leftovers. The pizza had a great crust, plenty of cheese and toppings. The chubbies had excellent crunchy bread, perfectly cooked, cheese and crisp pepperoni. The kicker was the parmesan cheese sprinkled on it. It added that kick of flavor. We want to try more stuff. We will be back. For sure!! read more

This place is wack!! I called in for a pick up. The guy said it would be ready in 25 min. When i showed up he was in the back cursing at his employee about not getting orders right. Very unprofessional even after he knew i was listening. I get home and then my hot wings had at least 3-4 wings with bite marks on them! WTF!? I guess his employees get hungry because he doesnt give breaks. Im never going back and giving him my business! read more

I have made two trips and several phone calls to Rizza's within the last 8 days...they are never open nor do they have an answering service. I had heard great things about their food but unfortunately haven't had any luck actually placing an order. Does anyone know their business hours? read more

what was life before chubbie sticks!!! Best pizza place in town. And their wings are amazing as well. Great service. Wait was a little long but totally worth it. I will definitely be going back. read more

We ordered a large pizza, 1/2 veggie, 1/2 rizza special. They were right on time with the delivery. Literally, exactly on time. Had I just had the veggie pizza, I wouldn't have ordered from them again. The artichokes on it were SO vinegary (if that's a word) and there was so much garlic on it, those were the only two things I could taste. The Rizza, however, was delightful. Lots of toppings, but you could taste everything mixed together. The crust is a review all its own. The crust is downright delicious. We also ordered the chubby stick and it was quite good as well. I think next time, I'll order less toppings to enjoy them and the crust more. read more

My sister told me about this place, she brought over a pizza one evening and it was great. So I decided to go in on Sunday evening and get a pizza to go . I ordered an Xtra large specialty pizza they said it would take about 30 minutes I said no problem . I said I would be back to pick it up, when I got back they were swamped with orders the owner apologized for the delay and gave me a discount I said I also used to work for a chain of pizza parlors and know how it gets crazy sometimes . He said he added extra cheese and sauce to my pizza , I thanked him for the effort to make it up. When I saw the pizza I was shocked it looked awesome and when I got home and ate a piece it was the best pizza I have ever eaten I could not stop my mother also said it was the best she had eaten . I have now found the place to get the best pizza in town Rizza Pizza . read more

This is the spot to eat at the chubbies are fire amazing, they have that super crunchiness on the out side and it's soft on the inside, the employees are always busy so they may seem a little in a rush because they are but if you're nice and understanding they'll hook you up. ITS THE BOMB !! read more

My husband and I normally LOVE the chubby sticks, but our experience today was a big turn off. We went in at 6:15 today to order pizza and the employee was too busy complaining about a bad review (or someone's complaint) to acknowledge customers. We over heard him say something about the customer taking a picture of a cockroach, him giving a "loaded" pizza for $11.99 then the customer still complained, and the employee stated "do you know what kind of crazy you have to be to do that?" The employee sounded like he had been drinking or something. We were there for a couple minutes without being welcomed or anything. We left shouting, "we will go somewhere else" and we still were not acknowledged. Shame on that employee, I don't have a name or I would gladly leave it. read more

I've been to this place twice already n I love it the chubbie sticks are great jus like everyone keeps saying. Awesome deal full meal for 2-3 ppl under 20 bucks can't beat that. Not sure if I would eat inside but the outside seems more inviting for pizza and beer while BS'in with friends n family. Will definitely be goin back. read more

Got to try their chubby sticks!!! pizza was so huge it lasted us for a week! small dining area

I absolutely love the pizza here. The pizza itself is worth an easy 10 stars hands down, however, the owners lack of people skills really kills it for me. Here's why: I called in on a Sunday afternoon, about 2:45ish. I wasn't aware that they didn't open until 3. Anyways the owner answers the phone and I attempt to place my order. He tells me they don't open til 3 and he wouldn't turn on the ovens till then. No problem, I asked if I could still place my order and he could let me know what time it would be ready. He seemed to get really irritated by that and raised his voice at me and said again he wouldn't turn the ovens on til 3. I said I understood that and I was willing to wait. But he came off again really irritated so I told him he was being rude and I'll take my business elsewhere. I haven't been back. We used to grab a pizza on our way home from work at least once a week until that happened. read more

If you are a true pizza aficionado you will defiantly want to check this place out. You pay a damn good price for some excellent pizza. Crush is light and crispy at the edge and plenty of cheese without being charged extra. Enjoy! read more

chubby bread is as good as the reviews. Good value too med pizza and chubby bead under $20

It is unfortunate that I have to give this place only three stars. Their food is really good and their chubby sticks are delicious. Definitely has one of the best pizzas in town, but I must say their customer service is terrible. The people that work at this place do not appreciate their customers at all. My only hope is that they take this and the several other reviews on here regarding their poor customer service seriously! read more

Unsure on this one. Good crust, lotsa cheese, a little saucy, flavor pretty good. Empty restaurant at 7 pm on a Friday.

We ordered a large with pepperoni/bell pepper & a med. with sausage/mushroom. Delivery took 35-min. as advertised. The gal was very friendly. The pizzas were quite good. I REALLY like the pepperoni. The cheese was very food as well. The sauce was a good blend tangy and spicy, but not overwhelming. I like pizza with a little char, so I would request them well done next time. A good pizza, try it! read more

When I travel with my family from Vegas to LA beaches, I make a point of stopping here along the way. We love Rizza Pizza!

OK. I'll come clean. I am addicted to the chubby sticks. Awesome flavor dough with quality cheese and peperoni (although you can get something else on it if you want) with a parm buttered crust dipped into the best pizza sauce I have ever had (I always upgrade to a larger sauce cup). My boyfriend and I usually get "The Best Deal" which is a good sized medium pizza with two toppings and 3 chubby sticks for around $15. I usually try to convince my boyfriend that he doesn't want any of the sticks and make him just eat pizza lol but the pizza is also really really good. We like the chicken and garlic with a sprinkle of basil on it. This has become a weekly meal! We always take our food home but the place (although nothing fancy) is homey and welcoming with tvs and plenty of seating. True, it is in a some what sketchy corner but its not going to stop me from grubbing here. Besides, I carry pepper spray =) read more

Great pizza was fluffy and crunchy all in one bite super cheesy.. chubby stick bomb!!!! Will come again

The food here is the best! Don't let the scenery scare you away because the pizza there is the best in town. And the "chubby" sticks there are the absolute best, it's a garlic breadstick filled with cheese and topped with pepperoni. They also will put other toppings on it if you ask. Overall the food is awesome and the people there are really nice and friendly read more

One of our favorite pizza places! Been ordering from here for years. Great thick crust, toppings are under the cheese, awesome sauce. Plus they have a ginormous party size pizza we always get when we have parties or just several people at the house! Great value for the quality. Make sure to order a side of chubbies! I like the pepperoni ones and mushroom chubbies. Owner is such a good guy too-Mario. Super friendly and takes a lot of pride in his pizzas! read more

Workers are so nice! Food is soooo good! Nice little small business in the area!! I would 100% recommend the chubby sticks and the pizza, don't go anywhere else! I drive miles just to eat here! read more
