Yeah I know, if I already gave it a bad review why even come back, well my kid was told the pizza was really good and wanted to try it, I warned her about the pizza being soggy and tasteless but she still wanted to come, there was a guy that seemed to be the owner or manager just watching us and make me and my daughter very uncomfortable, 2 more people walked in , 2 young teenagers, he would just stare at them and us alternately, creeped the ef out of my daughter because he would focus on the females, I said to her "what do you expect out of a place named after a male stripper", so we walked out swearing never to come back, now why does this place have 5 star reviews? Guaranteed it's him and his family, friends and neighbors doing it, and maybe a few other people that no food is bad food.

Looks like it might be closed forever....just stopped there 5pm on a Tue and it's locked up and dark, calls went unanswered... After reading the other reviews it looks like it's a good thing.

Poor service on Friday 9/16/22 at 5pm. Ordered Hawaiian & Meatlovers. Got home to find two pepperoni pizzas in boxes. One over cooked, burned crust. Paid way too much. Called store and person answering was like, "Oh well"... "Are you happy with the pepperoni?" I replied "No! but I'm not coming back to fix it."... Lousy flavor. Buy a store box frozen and save yourself a LOT of money and aggravation. We wont be back...

The pizza is ok not bad but not great either. I had their pepperoni slice. Don't get the wings those were really not good. I've had frozen wings before with better flavor but it's a pizza shop not a wings shop so I get it.

This used to be Pizza Project but has since been bought out by a new owner. I used to go here at least once or twice a week prior to current ownership (I work in the same plaza). The prices for a build your own pizza has increased quite a bit (30%), options have changed (they used to have a setup similar to Mod or Blaze pizza, and the quality and taste has remained about the same or slightly worse. I've now given the new place a 5th time under new ownership. The friendly and excellent staff from the former Pizza Project are also no longer there. Tuesdays at lunch used to be packed because of the specials, but I was the only one there today during lunch time. As other's have reviewed, the prior ownership will be sorely missed. Hopefully the owner reads these reviews and makes some much needed changes to either quality and taste and or pricing of the product.

I ordered the Alfredo sauce sausage pizza with gluten free crust. Taste-wise it was pretty good. But the cost was nearly $20. Wasn’t worth the price tag. There wasn’t much sausage on it.I miss Project Pizza and the custom ordering experience. Sad to see them gone.

I tried this place for the first time because I love supporting local restaurants but I was very disappointed. The staff kept checking the pizza over and over again while consulting with each other whether the pizza was done. It was obvious they have no idea how to use a pizza oven. The pizza I got was very under done in the middle and burnt on the crust. It was also very greasy. The pizza was the worst pizza I have ever had. A frozen pizza that you can cook at home would have been better. When you pay almost $30.00 for a pizza it should be edible and delicious. I will never come back to Magic Mike's again. I can't understand how this place got any 5 star reviews. Owner must have friends and family giving bogus reviews.

This place used to be called Pizza Project and was a MILLION times better. Was much more fairly priced and even better quality than it is now. The specials on Tuesday's were so worth it, we used to go every single week. Have tried this for a few dinners since they opened but we're disappointed every time. Now we're back to having to find a decent pizza place in the area.

Unfortunately, I hate to write this review but here it goes: I love the pizza here, but if you want the WORST customer service definitely this IS the place to go. The workers do not care about communicating if they don't have your food ready or not. They made us drive in worst traffic and weather and once there our food was not ready and they were closing. Didn't even apologize. Never got the pizza. Never got the food.

Absolute trash under the new ownership. Originally, called Pizza Project, the $5 pizza on Tuesdays and overall quality was unmatched. Eventually a new owner rebranded the shop and it's uneatable in comparison. I'm never eating here again. How does a pizza go from S tier quality and $5, to C tier at BEST and $21. It's ridiculous and I recommend no one eat here.
It's so great to have a neighborhood pizza place that serves up such excellent food at reasonable prices! So far we've ordered twice. Every ingredient is on point, from the fresh well chosen toppings that are perfectly prepped for a high fire, good quality cheese, very tasty sauces, to the not too thin crisp-bottom crust with great flavor. Doesn't get much better! But wait..they send coupons too!! Truly the BEST margherita in OC. The only criticism is that their ranch is a bit runny. But that is easily forgiven..or maybe even fixed. Cheers Magic Mike's!

Very average pizza. The pizza oven holds promise but delivers a non charred somewhat soggy pizza. The build your own medium starts at nearly $14 and doesn't include cheese- that's an extra $2. Each topping is $2 and you can upgrade to a large for another $5. The pizza is fine albeit super salty. The toppings we ordered were scarce, the fresh garlic barely discernible and the tomatoes are not slices but baby tomatoes.

I was surprised about the previous negative reviews because our experience was great. I asked if I could create my own salad and it was no issue. It came out delicious!! We ordered a small cheese, 2 different salads, hot wings, BBQ wings and ravioli. Found the prices to be reasonable. The place was clean and the staff was very friendly! Definitely recommend

My first time ordering from here. And im definitely a food critic and like good food. I will rate this place along side Luigi's pizza at Universal Studios. I odered the gluten free pizza with vegetables it was loaded and covered. Pizza was impressively thick as well.OMG their pizza is soo delicious i will definitely be going back. I also had a house salad it was a very generous size enough for 2 people. I highly recommend you wont be disappointed.
