Service is always good. Last pizza (Sicilian) was not as advertised. Appears they ran out of dough and doubled a New York dough. Pizza was way to thick and weird shaped to be Sicilian. The cooked crust separated horizontally. Received email after order that there was an issue with my pizza. Did not see email until I already picked up pizza. Sad that TJs did not let me know there was an issue when I picked up the pizza. May have taken it anyway but at least they would have been upfront with the customer.

I don't eat cheese and I don't eat gluten however, they have a gluten-free Neapolitan pizza and I ordered it without cheese so I'm excited to bring it home and eat it Noah is adorable and very sweet to guide me through the process of ordering with my own accoutrements. It's easy to park here and it's not too long of a wait to order here or take it to go

If you want a great wood-fired pizza, and mega selections to choose from...TJ's is your place. The salads are delicious and made quite well. The variety of craft beers is a true joy, for the beer-lover. The inside is somewhat tight, but it's always a great pleasure to eat there.

My sister had opinions about this place. She was right..again. Thought I would finally try it. I ordered a Quattro formagio pizza with the cup pepperoni and a calzone. The pizza didn't have 4 cheeses on it unless I missed it? No ricotta for sure. The pepperoni was weird. It's like they took a cheese pizza and topped with some pepperoni they cooked. It was falling off the pizza when I was eating it. It wasn't baked in the pie. And the middle was soggy. Then there's the calzone. The dough was severely underbaked. And again where's the ricotta???? Their tomato sauce is very heavy and spicy and with lots of dried herbs if you like that. Not a NY/Nj place for sure. I'm a Jersey girl. But there's not much close by so they got you I guess....Unless I open my own place? These are my pizzas homemade dough cooked on a stone! 00 flour! Wouldn't you like to have one of these? Who knows maybe one day. Need funding! I HOPE MY REVIEW DOESNT GET BURIED UNDER THESE 5 STAR FAKE REVIEWS EITHER!

When companies operate right it is quickly recognizable. People often only take the time to leave reviews when things go south. I just moved to the area & was looking for our new go to pizza joint... for many reasons we landed on TJ's. It was (& this doesn't occur frequently & I hate admitting) completely my fault that I messed up the delivery vs take out option. I called and their response was, in a friendly manner, let's see what we can do. They took care of it all, to spare you the details, and the pizza was amazing! Thank you to who was on the other end of the line & you have a new loyal customer.

Yesterday, we went there with our kids and ordered three small pizzas, which were really good and more than enough for four people. Speaking as a newcomer professional chef who has been trained in pizza making in Naples, Italy, for years, I can say that the team is doing really well. This place was recommended to us, and we were completely satisfied.
Such great food and wonderful staff. Been coming here for years for the excellent pizza and salads. Surprised tonight by trying their pasta bolanese, wonderful! I would highly recommend it!

Pizza was great! Love the place and huge windows - so much air and light inside! Absolutely the best quality of dough I ever tried in OC. Highly recommended

Had this place for the first time and it was really good! Gotta come here to get the combo pizza since Costco got rid of theirs and it doesn’t disappoint. Don’t get that inferior frozen pizza from Walfart or dollar tree and get this instead. And the employees working there were awesome!

Friendly counter staff, helpful with questions about pizza options. Had one of the Napoleon wood fired pizza options and it was just ok. I expect a little darkening of the crust, but this one had achieved charcoal status on more than 30% of the crust. Sadly, I love crust so while the body of the pizza was pretty good, not being able to enjoy the crust brings my impression down to average at best. But on a plus side, an excellent hard cider was available on tap so in the end, I'd come back for another shot at this restaurant (thinking maybe the over baked crust was a one off incident since looking at other pizzas coming out of the oven those didn't seem to have the same appearance.)
