I use to love this pizza place. This is the second time pizza was horrible. And the chicken panini was burnt and not hot along with the pizza. The ziti pizza was cold This will be the last time I'll be eating anything from Ciros read more

Worst silician pie I've had since the last time I ordered Elegante. Uncooked dough, untasty sauce, unmelted cheese. And waited over an hour for it. Not sure what is going on with this place, I've been a customer for 30 years, but this was the worst. read more

The staff is very friendly but that is about the only going thing for this establishment. I gave it a few chances as some places do not excel in everything. However, the wraps were pure oil and cheese (I felt sick after). The pizza was cold and tasteless. The penna alla vodka was okay, and perhaps something I would try again. Overall, not worth it. And overpriced for the lack of quality. read more

How is it the best pizza in the area for years could have such a dramatic fall from grace. For months the quality has been dropping and dropping. Finally, my last order ever was last week. The pizza was a greasy mess. The oil soaked cheese was falling off the pizza. The pizza slices flopped over as the greasy cheese slid off the pizza onto the box. Years ago this would never have occurred. There are plenty of other establishments to investigate and pursue. I look forward to it but there is 0 chance I return to this place. read more

This place was one of the very few places I considered a hidden gem a decade ago especially when the older native Italian owners screaming and fighting at the older location ran things, they have since retired back to the homeland. Then a few years after that it gentrified it's location to match the freak lame crowd coming in from that god for saken rockaway shuttle piping in those annoying hipsters from east Brooklyn, NOW a full decade later it's last location over at the mall is all that's left with a decent slice yes still BUT has dropped off hugely due to...well...no give a fucks as usuall, young Italians see pizzerias as a money machine no matter how little love they put in and then they hire a bunch of NON Italians bro run shit....yea...INTO THE GROUND! And this is why all these new brick oven pizzeria's but over priced pizza that we don't want to pay for and over even quality that we don't necessarily want all the time we just want a good Brooklyn slice can't get anymore because we're stuck with all this gentrification and like I said prior Italians who don't want to pass along any care about anything in this world as a whole world operates the same way everything in this planet is turning to shiT! Ciro's is now one of them...not dead BUT it's grave is 3 feet to six feet dug as of now...at least with ME! read more

I bought a pie for delivery and the cheese was All Over the place and box was too small for the pie,than I gave another chance following week I bought a Sicilian pie omg terrible,steal as hell,most went into the garbage! Never will order from this place again! read more

At this point I'm just looking for a really good pizza with soft delicious crust, reasonably priced quality toppings, and not overpriced. Why is it so hard to find good food out here? It seems like everyone just does the bare minimum to get by. Hard cardboard crust, old, dingy/dusty establishments, and overpriced meals. Not a good look. Let's step it up NYC! read more

Ciro's Pizza - a pizza in a box - Pizza Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

I ordered for delivery. It was quick, guy was nice. But the pizza got to me like this !!! I was so annoyed. All the cheese slid to the other half. They need better quality control or a delivery guy with steadier hands. Also, the mozzarella sticks were average they would've been better if maybe fried a minute or 2 longer. The cheese wasn't very melted. The only reason why this place gets 2 stars is because I've gone in to eat the pizza and it's good. Also the buffalo wings are amazing! Will go back in store but won't be ordering pizza for delivery. read more

Ciro's Pizza - Large cheese pizza pie - Pizza Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

I used to order from the originial Ciro's on Beach 116th St. Wonderful. This location sent me a lasagna with no meat in it whatsoever. I called and told him thanks for the free wilted salad saturated in oil and vinegar. Where the hell is the meat? I ate so much mozzarella and lasagna pasta. Well, won't go or order again. read more

Alright: Their portions are decent enough but there are plenty of issues; we have ordered from them multiple times so this isn't a one time thing. They wrap most of the food in aluminum (which isn't a bad thing but it sticks to a lot of the food) haphazardly roll the food up and stick it in the pizza box. Heroes and rolls lose their cheese to the foil. Sandwiches should be right side up and in plastic containers. Gotta work on that. read more

Tried the large cheese pizza and a beef pattie with cheese yesterday, the location is very convenient on the way to the beach or leaving the beach. The service was cool, happily they had the large cheese pizza that was freshly being made at the perfect timing. I only could eat two slices the pizza was pretty fulfilling. Didn't get to take pics because was too hungry lol. They have an outdoor and indoor seating area, sat outside and got a nice breeze while having good convo. You can tell the pizza shop is a staple for the block looks like the home to a lot of regulars. If in the area would def come back for a slice or a pie. Would highly suggest read more

The tastiest and friendliest choice in Rockaway! The best part is they are so good to my Mom! She likes a little thing of extra sauce with her slice! Ciros always gladly gives her a lil extra sauce!! (Unlike anywhere else.) And it's warm too! And shares it with me! They won her over! Ciros is the only pizza choice in Rockaway! read more

Ciro's Pizza - So goood. Even the crust was delicious! - Pizza Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

Stopped for lunch- my first visit. We ordered a margarita slice, regular slice, white slice and garlic knots. The regular slice was good, just what you'd expect. The margarita slice completely fell apart in my hands and went everywhere. I sort of mashed it all together like a mushy pizza pattie and it tasted good. The crust was soooo soggy. The white slice was really good, although I love the cheese, it was actually a bit too much. I can't believe i wrote that but it was somewhat overwhelming after a few bites. Great flavor though. The garlic knots were meh. All in all The food was ok. There were 3 men working. Those making the food wore their masks the whole time we were there. The one working the counter put his mask on when we arrived but pulled it down within about 10 seconds and didn't put it back up the entire time we were there. Man- you're selling food during a pandemic- wear your mask!! Come on! read more

The pizza is ok .. but cmon man fix up the place ! Won't be back .. to dirty .. and that's not cool

Decent pizza and wings but don't ask for delivery. It's terrible unless you don't mind waiting a long time for your food and really like cold pizza. On the bright side the manager does call back and made sure to correct the order and the delivery guy was friendly and very apologetic. That goes a long way! read more

Love, love, love Ciro's Pizza. The rates are pretty moderate as well. These guys got a marvelous menu too. Crew is very polite and can help you with everything. Ciro's Pizza is definitely a special place. read more

Not impressed but will try again, hardly any sauce on the specialty Ciro's pizza. Burnt bottom crust. Free delivery. Pork just doesn't taste right. I know this place is popular and will give them a second try. read more

Wow, Ciro's Pizza was simply something else. I've never had a bad experience with them, never tried something I didn't love. Everything was very yummy and I can't wait to go back already. The service here is outstanding. Ciro's Pizza: Certainly a must try if you are in the area. read more

I ordered a shrimp Parmesan dinner which comes with salad and bread there was no Salad it was wilted lettuce and a piece of sliced tomato in some hot juice the Shimp was way over cooked and dry. read more

Ciro's Pizza - I ordered a shrimp parmesan dinner which comes with salad and bread this is what I received some wilted lettuce and the shrimp overcooked - Pizza Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

Probably the worst pizza in Rockaway. Steer clear. Original Ciros on b116th or plum tomatoes are both better. read more

I simply had to try out Ciro's Pizza after hearing the great reviews from my friends. First of all, the price is unbeatable. Every thing that I have tried has been rather delicious. The servers are extremely friendly and attentive. So thankful for the addition to the neighborhood. read more

First off I don't think I believe the story in the other "review" about someone being denied because they had a service dog with them. The picture just looks like it was taken from a fair distance and as if it were taken while someone was just passing by. Anyway, Ciro's DOES allow blind people and service dogs in their cozy establishment. They even have a sign on the door that says it. This is an old school looking Italian pizzeria located in the Stop & Shop shopping center. I had the Chicken, Bacon, Ranch slice and if like Bacon then this slice is a must. It was very steadily busy as I sat there with take out and deliveries. The staff was great. Fast, friendly and efficient. Anytime I am back in this area I will stop here for lunch. read more

My first time coming here. Not bad pizza. I am a resident of Far Rockaway for years. I've walked past this place for years. Who knew they could cook with flavor. I had 1 buffalo chicken slice. So cheesy and filling. My son had a pepperoni slice and garlic knots. Slices were great but knots were too greasy. But I'll be back because the service was quick and clean. Too bad they don't deliver to Far Rockaway. read more

I usually love ciros but my last few orders have been disappointing. I ordered a bacon cheese burger and fries last night. I don't know how you get that wrong but they did. The bacon was burnt so it threw off the whole flavor of the burger. The burger itself was under seasoned. The lettuce was wilted to the point it wouldn't even break apart when you bit into the burger and the tomatoes were soggy and yuck. The fries were ok but no seasoning as well just fries. My order before that was a lasagna and I swear the ricotta cheese was bad because it made everything smell and taste sour. My uncle ordered a ziti and same thing. The sad part is this place doesn't care if they're selling bad food or get complaints. It's sad to say ciros lost a long time customer in me. read more

They threw my friend out who is blind and needs a service dog. I'm appalled and will refuse any service in the future. read more

Ciro's Pizza - Refused service because of service dog. - Pizza Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

I don't know what has happened to our favorite place we always order from but today was the last straw. Two weeks ago we only got half of the items we ordered, Three days ago we ordered a meal with garlic bread the bread came fully molded . When I called today to place an order I told them about it, I also told them I have a picture as proof and they still didn't offer to credit our today's bill. Anyway, today I ordered a philly steak sandwich that arrived fully burned ( not crispy burned, burned,burned) and a stone cold pizza . This was the last time we are ordering from them. read more

Ciro's Pizza - Burned Philly cheesesteak - Pizza Near Me - Rockaway Park, New York

See all

Their calzones are delicious and we like their food normally. But I'm commenting because today my mom and I walked in and the worker at the counter was on his phone and didn't want to be bothered with helping us despite us asking questions. Poor customer service! read more

Located on a busy, upbeat street in Rockaway Park, the pizza here is decent. I've stopped in several times. It feels a bit cramped when you first walk in but there are more tables in the back. I had a plain ol' slice and it tasted pretty good. Not as crispy on the bottom as I prefer, but a good slice overall. They had a few other pizzas in the case, as well as some mozzarella sticks and Jamaican beef patties. The table I sat at had grease all over it, as did my elbow. ugh!! After moving to a cleaner table in the back, I enjoyed my slice while watching the news on their tv. Nice quick meal before my road trip home. :-) read more

Never again! I was informed with a nasty attitude by the guy who picked up the phone that "They only take cash for delivery". In the yr 2020! They tell you 1/2 hr for delivery and one hr and 10 min later the delivery finally shows up! It wasn't edible! It was soggy like someone dumped water on it! As soon as you went to pick it up all the cheese and toppings fell off! It was like trying to hold a wet noodle!!!!! It's a shame, that a business who depends on delivery probably to make most of its money can make such a horrible product. Lesson learned. There should be a way to give this negative stars!!!! read more

They have decent slices and garlic knots...but the interior is jus ta run down pizza shop that has not been updated since it opened in the 80s. The best things to order by far IMO are the giantic chicken rolls. Seriously try and find a bigger one in the NY area. It is massive and could feed two people. Also the giant salad is delicious with grilled chicken on top of mixed greens. read more

5 words [including numbers]: $12.50 Chicken francese with Penne. Oh my god. Let me tell you, nothing gets me going like a GOOOD plate of chicken francese with penne. full plate with a few pieces of chicken instead of the usual oversize one or two. it also comes with a side salad and bread. I haven't had a chance to have their pizza yet. Also, chicken parm hero about 13 inches long for $8. SO good. The place looks like a little hole in the wall but the food ive had from there wow'd me. reason not given 5 stars: i haven't had a chance to have more menu items and last time i was there the guy behind the counter was REALLY rude, like i bothered him that I came in. He told me he didn't take debit cards [I used a debit card 2 days before hand]. I told him that and he said that well he cant do it now, so i had to go to the bank and take out my last $20. other then that, good stuff. try it out ! read more

I actually stood in the shop for 25 mins. Is it really possible for someone who came in after me, have a larger, detailed order and still walk out before I did. I asked the person at the register, if my order was being made, who simply shrugged and said "I don't know". Needless to say, I left without my 2 slices. Never again! read more

These guys are really good and convenient. I love their dinners especially the lasagna and pene, the portions are huge. If you get the pizza order it well done, the crust is a bit thick. read more

Pizza is not good by any means...chicken rolls are very big and decent but you must get them well done...they also take forever to cook food

Wow, you guys nailed it. A sausage calzone and a small antipasto. The Calzones crust was just slightly thinner than usual, like authentic Italy crust. Light and flavorful and the usual stuffed antipasto. Fabulous. I should have taken a pic read more

Best pizza I've had in years. It was such a treat to be back home and have real pizza. The place was slammed and our pizza was well worth the wait. Quality ingredients, perfectly cooked. read more

Well I got over it. Since their closing I have always kept up with their inspections and they have always maintained an A. Since Superstorm Sandy wiped out most of our restaurants - and they were open sooner than others, we took a chance. Ciro's did not disappoint. The jumbo chicken roll is still amazing, and HUGE enough to serve several people. Thanks Ciro's and welcome back, glad to see a local business is still thriving after this disaster! read more

What a surprise I had today. I walked into this average looking pizzeria with low expectations Instead I had what was probably the best slice of sausage, peppers and onion pizza I've ever had. I had to use a knife and fork on this oversized slice Only issue I had with the place is they are cash only. I spoke to the owner who said he's working on the credit card issue. BTW, my friend had a regular slice and he too raved about it. read more

I was looking for a pizzeria near me to order several pies for a child's birthday party. This pizzeria had the best deal in the area so I decided to order from here. The delivery guy came on time and the pizza was pretty good. Nobody complained and several had seconds. I had no issue with them and would order again if I have another pizza party. read more

My aunt ordered a pizza to be delivered for my last night in NY. The pizza took a very long time to get there and it was really disgusting. The box was so stained that is how much grease was on the pizza. The pizza crust was uncooked and toppings were raw. The toppings fell right off the crust because it was soaked in so much grease. The Crust tasted awful since it was so soggy and raw. I got sick/food poisoning. I have never had a bad pizza in NY before so frankly I am a bit baffled. I feel my aunt should have called to get a refund. However, by the time we got the food everyone was too hungry and it was to late to call back and wait another hour or two for a new pie. They need to get their act together. Boardwalk Pizza is too die for compared to them. read more
