    This is an absolute stable for a quick lunch or dinner with friends. Its super casual and cozy inside, and they are constantly busy. I have had many salads and pizzas from this place and it is always a 10/10. I love how kind everyone is even when they are extremely busy. I have been going here for over 6 years and the quality has never gone down. highly recommend!!

    Wise Guys Pizzeria is located in the corner of the Yorba Ranch Village Shopping Center. A friend and I visited on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. There was plenty of parking available, but the lot does get full at times, as there are a lot of popular shops and restaurants in this center. They have a good number of tables inside, a bar, and some tables on the patio out front. The walls feature sports décor. There was no wait at the front counter. We looked over the menu at the register, placed our order, and got a number on a stand to place on our table. They have a large number of pizza ingredient combinations, and the prices are very reasonable. We sat in a booth by the bar area. The bartender was friendly, and he was happy to put a hockey game on the TV for us. We had the 14" Hot Honey Pizza (Hot Honey, Provolone, Pepperoni, Goat Cheese, Baby Arugula, drizzled with WG's hot honey, $24.49). The crust was nice and doughy, baked well, and not soggy at all. The pizza had a lot of pepperoni, and plenty of goat cheese and arugula. I really loved the hot honey which had a good sweetness and definitely some heat. This was an excellent pizza, and I loved the combination of ingredients. All of the staff were very friendly, and we were thanked on the way out. I will definitely return to try some of their other interesting pizzas.

    Pizza was pretty good! It was more on the higher side pricing but valid Staff was nice as well and inside was filled with many tables. Gave a classic old school town feel Seems fun to be there and done there since they have various options for food. Not just pizza Will be back again!

    The people at Wise guys are definitely wise! This place has the best Veggie pizza I have ever had. Their toppings are super fresh and really tasty. I don't even like veggie pizzas. But this place makes me want to order one every time I visit. They have a great beer selection as well, with craft beers on tap. The interior of this place can host a good amount of people but if you have large party or just want to be outside during the day or night, they have an incredible outdoor area with a TV to catch sports on. Do you like Italian Hot Wings ? I I suggest you order them. Thank you Wise Guys for you incredible work. Cheers!

    Large pepperoni and sausage - they didn't skimp on the toppings!

    Just had Wise Guys Pizzeria last night. Ordered take out and came home to this beautiful-looking, perfectly-baked pizza!! And it's Tastes just as good as it looks! We got the Family Meal Deal $42 with tax and one additional topping. It comes with a garden salad, cinnamon knots, ice cream, and 2-liter soda. Perfect for an end of the work week dinner with the family. The young gentleman who worked the cashier and gathered the food was so welcoming and courteous. He looked happy working there. The place was busy and had that "being out and about enjoying life" vibe, if you're looking for that. I just wanted a quiet night after a long work week.

    One of the best pizzas I've had in a while. Fresh ingredients make this place stand out from the rest. Nice friendly service too.

    Alfredo Pasta

    The pizza was delicious! We also ordered the wings and pasta. The pasta portion looked small at first, but it was actually very filling. The service was fast, and everyone was friendly. We really enjoyed our meal and will definitely be coming back!

    Only slice left - and it's going to be tmrw's lunch

    Popped in for some margarita pizza today.. this place never disappoints. Fresh ingredients, hot food, friendly staff, plenty of parking and fair pricing. Place is cool and has a fun busy atmosphere. I would give it a try there are so many options it's up to you what greatness you create.

    Veggie pizza
    Lindsey D.

    Listen I don't even like veggies but this place has made me a fan! I'm always craving their veggie pizza but the pizzeria is a bit far so I can only enjoy it once in a while. I definitely recommend calling ahead to order so you don't have to wait that long. The veggie pizza makes me feel healthy since the toppings are loaded up with a bunch of different veggies and their pizza sauce is to die for! If you're looking for a change and some more veggie intake in your life definitely get this veggie pizza you won't ever go back to meat pizza!

We wanted to try the pizza, which is one of their specialties, but we will have to come back for that. The interior is nice and it gives the possibility to make it feel like a date night place while still offering a bit of a casual vibe. I would recommend this place for sure.

My parents got the artisan pizza and the arugula salad with salmon and said it was delicious, especially raving about the dressing for the salad and the wonderful amount of meat on the pizza I got the wood fired mushroom pizza and it was soooo good. The crème fraiche wasn't overwhelming and the flavors were just spectacular. Definitely recommend for a nice and cozy dinner in the Yorba Linda area!

    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!

Thought I'd make dinner easy on the kids, so I ordered a cheese pizza to take out. I sat down after placing my order and ended up chatting with the owner for about 10-15 minutes while they made my pizza; I believe it was his daughter in the back making the food. I love family businesses, and they were extremely pleasant, awesome people. He also offered me a free drink while I waited for the pizza; I get it if I ordered $100+ in food, but I literally got an $18 cheese pizza for my kids. His generosity and friendly demeanor won me over as a customer. Kids loved the cheese pizza, too. Tonight was pizza night for the whole family so I ordered from here instead of my normal lamppost or wise guys. The kids got their usual cheese, and loved it, and the wife and I split the chicken Tikka, spicy with some tandoori wings. All was phenomenal. The wings were small, but that's not a knock - they're likely just not the GMO giants I'm used to from wing-stop. They were fresh and packed with flavor. The Tikka pizza with the garlic base, spicy seasoned chicken, green and red onion and cilantro was one of the best pizzas I've had. What started as a desire to support a neighborhood friendly family businesses has developed into an addition for Indian/Italian fusion. This is officially our new spot, despite being at the east-most end of Yorba Linda; we'll make the trek.

    Date of visit: Sep 8, 2026…read more What a disappointing birthday dinner. I came here with high hopes of finding one of those hidden-gem, hole-in-the-wall Italian places, but unfortunately, it all ended up blowing up in my face. The biggest problem was simple: everything--from the soup to the main dishes--was way too salty. We were a party of six, and three of us ordered pasta with the garlic cream sauce: the Pescatore, Shrimp & Scallop, and Clam. The sauce wasn't thickened enough, so it was much too soupy for a pasta dish, and the taste of white wine was very prominent. The garlic cream sauce was salty too, although nowhere near as crazy salty as the Chicken Piccata, Tortellini Giovanni, and Minestrone. Chicken Piccata: Like everything else we tried, this dish was just way too salty. The lemon-butter sauce was completely overwhelmed by the capers, and eating it honestly felt like shoveling forkfuls of salt into my mouth. The only saving grace was the chicken itself, which was cooked well and had a nice golden-brown exterior. Tortellini Giovanni: Just okay. I've definitely had better. The cheese filling inside the tortellini wasn't particularly good, although the Italian sausage was pretty tasty. The more I ate, though, the saltier, heavier, and oilier the dish seemed to get. Overall, there was really nothing special about it. Minestrone: SO salty that I couldn't even finish it. I'm not sure if this is simply their recipe or if the soup had been refrigerated and reheated to the point where some of the water had evaporated, leaving the salt increasingly concentrated. It's too bad because the underlying flavor was actually there--it was just completely ruined by the amount of salt. Pizza: Just okay. The dough wasn't bad, and I actually liked that it had some chewiness to it. But for the price, I'd rather go somewhere else. I really wanted to love this place, especially since this was my birthday dinner. I wasn't expecting fancy or perfect--I was hoping for a charming little hole-in-the-wall with really good, comforting Italian food. Unfortunately, we left super disappointed.
