This is the BEST pizza with an amazing atmosphere and incredible service. The bar, with mixologist is the cherry on top. PLEASE REOPEN SOON!!!!

Poor service and rude management. Overpriced and mediocre food quality.

Amazing Pizzeria! Wonderful combination of Gorgonzola and Prosciutto.

Pizzeria Ortica used to be one of our favorites, but they seem to have gone through too many cooks (one insisted on burning the pizza crust). This last visit too many of the salad leaves were wilted. With so little business there was ample time to sort through them. Thankfully the waiter still provides excellent service.

Understand the transition between being only open for takeout due to CoVid and being open for limited seatings but the experience still could have been better. There was no staff anywhere to be seen when we walked in. There were notes everywhere and it seemed like the lights were off. Even the homemade "open" sign on posterboard should have been better executed. The menu selection was ok and we understand that a full menu might not be available but the bar was closed except for beer and wine and when we received our food, it was in to-go boxes with disposable plates and cups. If you're not ready to open, please don't. Just keep it to go orders until that time where you can transition properly.

I really hate leaving a bad review after the covid restrictions are being lifted. The service was fine and the order was completed for pickup in about 15 minutes. We ordered the butter lettuce salad, it was pretty decent but for $16 the bar was set pretty high. We ordered the fusilli pasta and it was way below average, the pasta was overly greasy, the kale had a weird texture and just the overall flavor was poor and something that I would never recommend anyone ordering. We also ordered a House-Made Salsiccia pizza and it was along the same lines as the pasta, flavor was not ideal, it was very heavy and the pizza was very soft, I normally appreciate a little more crisp to the pizza but that's more of a personal preference. Overall I just feel disgusted with myself after the meal, I have driven by the restaurant 100s of times and this was a bad first impression. Maybe chalk it up to reopening jitters, but I certainly dont have a desire to give it another try.

I go to this marvelous restaurant once a month as I love the special air that is unique to this place. The staff is extremely helpful and professional. The service is extremely efficient. Also, the food they prepare is excellent. I came often and I was always satisfied. The pay is reasobable. I suggest this place to to everybody.

I came here with about 20 people on Thursday night. Drinks came fast and the staff was nice. Especially the hostess with the nose ring, she was very accommodating. The decor was nice and the place looked very clean. Ok, that is all I can say nice. The consensus from the whole group was the food was very salty, mediocre, and way overpriced. The apps were had were 6 orders of meatballs which were 3 to an order. They were just a meatball in red sauce. I heard the bag at Costco is compatible both in taste and cost. One order is about $15 and so is 5lbs from Costco. The fried green olives were actually good to me. I have never thought to fry them. Mains- I had the papperdelle with lamb something which was very salty and the pasta was very al dente. I also heard from around the table of underwhelming taste and very salty dishes. Dessert I heard was good as far as the ice cream went. I did not have any dessert as we had planned to order some pizzas when we got back to our hotel. So much for almost a $1k spent on dinner, the company was great and the drinks stayed full.

To begin, I believed this was some some top notch resturesturant. Within a small amount of time however, I discovered that they had some not so top notch food or service. One of the waitresses saw me wave politely for her attention, as I was going to ask for a refill. She promptly turned away from me and ignored me. Terrible service and rude hostess. Even my kids noticed the brush off. Food was amazing
Went here for a co-worker luncheon. My co-worker and I ordered the same exact thing (margherita pizza) but they looked totally different! Mine was clearly overcooked. Additionally, the place was unsightly - very run down. Tears in the shades, dust on the windowsill, and broken wood in the ceiling and walls. Definitely do not recommend. I've had better margherita pizza at California Pizza Kitchen and MOD!

Great location, nicely designed very good food and the service was excellent. I had the Rigatoni and my lunch dates had pizza. It was all very tasty.

Great food, very welcoming employees, consistently good mood. They charge affordable pricing and the food quality is awesome. 5 stars.

The first thing we noticed is that the online menu is much different than their actual in-restaurant menu, very much reduced. When we pointed this out to the waitress, she said the online menu was being worked on...fair enough... Also, the online site said it was one of the few restaurants that did not have a corkage charge...so we brought a bottle of wine. The waitress told us that there is a corkage charge of $25 per bottle...so we didn't open our bottle and ordered a martini and a glass of wine. When I asked about Happy Hour, I was told that it was from 8pm-10pm...then was told that they normally close up about 830pm on weeknights...sheesh... The martini was served in the smallest martini glass I've ever seen and they appeared to forget about the glass of wine, we received that about 20 minutes later, well into our appetizers. The sauce on my pizza was not as tasty as the one I recalled from a previous visit several months prior...but could that have been the result of our increasing disappointment in the place? Maybe... I had mentioned that we were celebrating a birthday in our reservation but no mention was made of it by the concierge or the wait staff...it just wasn't important to them I guess. We also noticed that there were only about 6 people in our half of the restaurant. When we asked why so few, we were told it was still early and it was only Thursday....we're thinking there are other reasons, some mentioned above, that may account for the lack of patrons. We wish the biz well because we don't want any to suffer but sometimes a restaurant is responsible for it's own condition and popularity. I'm afraid we'll choose a different pre-show restaurant next time.

Got there at 8:23 and they refused to serve as they close at 8:30! For one, who closes up that early and if a customer wala in before closing time you should serve them.
