Pizzeria Ortica

Best pizza crust in the OC. Pastas and salads also great, and wine by glass selection is decent

The crust on the border could be less burnt but overall it is a good Neapolitan style pizza . If you like spicy food , ask for the spicy oil : it is flavorful, dense and ... hot!

Great service! I had the Margherita pizza , which was delicious. Even better was the Tiramisu ! Definitely recommend dessert !

Get the Budino di Cioccolato! Cream top, decadent chocolate middle, and dark custard manna on the bottom, with sprinkles of salt throughout to enliven the senses with a dissenting, magnificent note! Read more

Authentic Rustic Italian pizza is served here. They are obsessed with pizza and you can definitely see that. *Guanciale , ricotta e cipollottoFresh ricotta , house-cured pork cheek , scallions*

Perfect place before the theate enjoy a bottle of wine then walk to OCPA center. , Choose anything with the Buratta . Especially the burrata appetizer with balsamic. Dang.

Best Pizza in the greater LA OC area, great happy hour too

Pizza with a fried egg on top was delicious. As was everything we had.

Excellent cocktails

Hand made Napoli-style pizzas and fresh pastas as well as traditional antipasti in a casual setting.

Pizza is some of the best around.

If there is an event going on, don't pay the $8 parking fee. Just tell them you are going to the pizzeria and get a ticket. The restaurant validates!

Nothing on the menu sounds appealing. After ordering the best of the limited options, nothing I ordered tastes good. Not impressed with the food or the service. Not recommended.

Go Italian.. perfect food and atmosphere

Perfect for when you are craving Italian!

Salame piccante e funghi is delicious here! Try it!

Don’t get any fish , just the pizza

Try the Arancini

Dare I say, the best pizza in the OC... yep, I said it.

Not that great anymore. I used to love this place, but the quality has declined in the past few months. Pizzas come out chewy. How hard is it to fully cookand slice up a pizza ?

Pizza is good. Stick to that. (Other plates look pretty and that's it.)

Ammazzagrappa

Get the tiramisu !

Excellent food and ambiance!

Have a pizza - it's the closest you'll ever get to an authentic European-style pizza in OC.

It's just okay. Service is great. Food is average. But a nice place.
