On February 16th we decided to go to Oregano's Italian restaurant at 6:PM. on Speedway Blvd. in Tucson AZ. I ordered a thin crust pizza and when it arrived it was soft and not crispy at all. It tasted terrible one of the worst thin crust pizzas I have tasted. I mention to the server that the thin crust pizza should be crispy and not soft like noodles. She told me she is sorry and is not familiar how it should be baked. Anyway, Oregano's restaurant used to be good quality and it's completely gone down-hill in quality of food. Not sure why that is happening, but management needs to wake-up especially in the kitchen and make the correction before it's too late. I hope you are listening Mark Russell. read more

Really good restaurant. I like this location. We had shrimp pasta and cheese pizza. Both of the meals were very delicious. For drink, I had a pink lemonade and it was okay. Would go again and again and again. read more

The food was really good. And the staff was really nice as well. I definitely would go again. It's just a little in the pricey side but totally worth it read more

While the wait staff was wonderful, what the heck is happening in the kitchen?! We went for lunch, and the restaurant wasn't busy. We expected to eat fairly quickly but that wasn't the case. It took at least 45 minutes for our two personal pizzas to be delivered from the kitchen. When we did receive it, it was quite cold. I'm not sure if this was an off day but I don't believe that this is a location I would visit again. read more

Amazing service, the manager and staff went above and beyond ! Food was great as usually.

We had good food, but the service....crazy experience. We ordered our food and waited so long to get anything. We were not complaining about it, we just waited and talked. The entree showed up, but not the salad. I asked them to remove the salad from the bill. Not such a big deal, until one of the people in our party was left without his meal. We looked for our waitress and had to approached her, we were told her name is Mel, and my friend asked her "Did you forget to place one of the orders?" Then the waitress responded "Oh yah, I guess I must have, I made a mistake", as she twirled her hair on her finger. Later, we asked our waitress for a refill of ice tea's for a couple of us at the table. She took the cups and and never came back. What was frustrating to see is that there were 4 staff members, "women" and our waitress, behind the partition just chatting and chatting, and laughing, while we were trying to get their attention. Finally, a member of our party walked around to speak to our waitress to inquire about the tea. When she found her and asked the waitress about it and our waitress insisted that she gave it to us. My friend told her "Check our table for the cups, they are not there because you took them." She refused to go and look. Where I was sitting I witnessed, from a distance, our waitress flailing her hands and pointing to my friend and to herself, according to my friend she told her "This isn't working for me, I am passing you off to another waitress" and walked away to talk to the group of her co-workers. My friend started walking back to the table then turned around to speak to the manager. The waitress saw her coming and said "What? Your back for more?" The manager was close by and obviously was not properly trained to handle this situation, or the staff, as he made excuses for the waitress. A different waitress helped us and was offering to remove items off the bill, that never was our desire. We are very willing to pay for good food and service, plus to have a pleasant, and not stressful experience. Those of us at the table were between 58-67 years old. We are not kids trying to make things difficult for people. We know staffing is hard, but this is something that can bring a place down. They did have plenty of staff there, we just got the wrong one. This young lady was an example of what lack of professionalism looks like. Costumer Service training is desperately needed. The reason the stars were not a 1 is because the food is good. I hope they straighten the staff issues up, it has great potential. read more

Nice Italian place! I've been here three times and both food and service were excellent. It's a nice place to take out of town visitors.

One of my favorite spots! Wait can be a little long especially with limitations related to Covid so prepare for that. Food is always great and filling. Love their pizza, pastas and anything with their meatballs!!!! read more

Yikes! I'm not a pasta fan but OMG! amazing! Yes I would definitely 100%recommend their deep dish is also a must try! 1 slice will do ya! read more

Definitely wayyyy better than the location on Speedway. There was no wait time (there's always a wait at Speedway), and it took literally half the time for them to cook our stuffed pizza. Food was delicious and fresh, I will definitely be back! read more

Got here half an hour ago to pick up an order we confirmed for catering yesterday by phone and email. They couldn't find it. Then they found it. Said it would be ready in 15 minutes. Oh, and they said the manager was going to talk to me. It's been 30 minutes. No food . No manager. And I've seen it happen to two other people while I've been here. Might be a good place to order in but I'd be careful about ordering out. So in the end it was 45 minutes. The manager said he was taking the Alfredo off the bill. It's $38.95. Which is great. The final bill has $25 off. Obviously we will call them back. read more

Earlier this past week we were doing the touristy thing down in the Tucson area. Our last night there we found an Oregano's in a nice shopping area off the I-17 just south of downtown Tucson. Our server was a nice young girl, but not as attentive as she should have been. We were not in a major rush so that was no problem. We were not super hungry, but Oregano's gave us plenty of options to take the edge off. My wife had a bowl of Italian wedding soup and it was "excellent". We shared some garlic bread with cheese...and I had deep-fried zucchini sticks. All good! Oregano's has a real cool, casual atmosphere and when you get ready to leave they have a huge pile of free, individually wrapped mints and fortune cookies. (There's something neat about an Italian place providing Chinese fortune cookies. :-) ) Go to a movie, go shopping....go to Oregano's. read more

We were not prepared for Oregano's! We searched for a pizza joint online - we didn't want a big national chain but we also didn't want a trendy downtown place on a Friday night either. And Oregano's popped up. Yelp currently shows it as 3.5 stars, so we were expecting mediocre-ish pizza. We couldn't have been more wrong!! We had Oregano's version of the supreme pizza - sausage, pepperoni, peppers, etc. It's called the Numero One-o. And it was thin crust. I know we were pretty hungry, but we almost finished an 18" pizza y'all. Couldn't. Stop. Eating. The slices are cut into really small squares, so we kept saying, oh just one more. It was so so good. The thin crust was perfectly crunchy around the edges, the sauce was incredibly flavorful, and the sausage topping was perfectly spiced (and high quality). The pizza tasted gourmet but homemade at the same time. I don't know what their secret is, but their sauce smells kind of like my crushed tomato sauce - I add red wine to it. Anyway, you really have to try their pizza, it's amazing and you'll wish you knew how to recreate it! Did I mention Oregano's is full of puns? The staff have the best shirts ever. The backs say things like "legalize marinara" and "practice safe sauce" and "oregano dispensary." I love that they don't care about offending people, it's just some fun food humor that makes them stand out. I asked if they sold their shirts, one of the gents said he thinks they're online. I looked quickly on my phone and just see gift cards for sale. It would be really cool if anyone could buy these shirts! And if they had them for sale in the front of the restaurant, that'd be super cool, I think a lot of people would buy them. read more

Do not eat here. The food is wayyyyyy overpriced and the whole place has a very negative attitude. Will never come back.

Amazing service every-time! The food is always delicious and brought out hot. The Diablo Shrimp Pasta is so delicious.

Alfredo the Dark.... it calls to me. I absolutely love the creamy slightly spicy Alfredo sauce

Food was well worth the wait. Will definitely eat here again when in Tucson! Big Red Pasta with sausage was excellent.

We like the food, but the service is terrible. This is the second time in a row where we get an estimated wait time of 10-15 minutes and after one hour we are still waiting. The funny thing is there are several empty tables. No more Oregano's for us. read more

Iam very disappointed with service that we didn't get. We where seated waited over 15 mins waitresses didnt ask for refreshments neither knowledge that we where there. Not attentive we saw they seated the people came in they did ask for their drinks. We decided to leave so disappointed and we loving coming to oreganos. read more

We sat down then ordered 2 lasagna dinners with cheese garlic bread as a side . We waited awhile for the lasagna to cook and then they brought 1 dinner and put it in front of my husband. The waiter then said he was bringing 2spoons so we could share. No where in our ordering did we ever say we were sharing!!! He apologized and said he'd get another which would have taken another 20minutes but by then we were upset!! We won't come back.! read more

Food was great got seated fast I think the only complaint I have was there was too much food and maybe the music was a little loud but other than that enjoyed it. OK so we're back again we've been back twice since my first review the food is always good the service is just horrible. These folks pretending to be waiters and waitresses do not care that you were sitting in their section. They think it's OK to serve appetizers with no plates and they think it's funny. Maybe we should order to go that might be OK read more

Chicken garlic Alfredo very dry and seemed like over seasoned with something I usually like lots of spices Very disappointed My husband liked spaghetti Place is decorated very cute Would come back to try the pizza but avoid chicken garlic lasagna read more

Love this place. Great service. My husband lives the pizza and pasta. I live the salads!!

The food was good but dirty silverware that stuck to the napkin and plates that had black marks and other unknown things ruined the meal. It was pointed out to the waitress and she took care of the problem. This should not occur everything should be checked before it is put on the table. Music was to loud and asking for it to lowered was ignored. Pizza was good but will not eat in the restaurant again. read more

We had a very unsatisfactory experience with the call ahead for oregano's. We had two elderly women, both in their 80s, and called ahead to get on the waitlist. We waited for over an hour and there was very little seating by the doors where you wait. I will not try to do that again. We used the call-ahead to get on wait list. What a joke! read more

I'm a fan of Oregano's - I always suggest it as our dinner when we're back in Tucson after having worked in Nogales. I love to get the salads since they are a) the size of your head, b) full of fresh ingredients, c) super flavorful, and d) much needed after days of heavy Mexican food. If there is a large enough group, we'll also get the pizza or a pasta to share. This will be my new preferred Oregano's location as it is more spacious, closer to the airport, and has more ample parking than the one we usually frequent, all with the same delicious food and friendly service. read more

Waits are always long (around 45 for dinner) but when you love their food, it's worth it. Would put myself in the wait list on Yelp to make time shorter as a pro tip. read more

This was our first visit at this location. We are very pleased with the amazing food and fabulous service. There was no wait to be seated and smiles from everyone the entire time. We will definitely be visiting this location very soon! read more

Love Oreganos however this location has major issues and can't seem to get it together. This is our third visit here. All three times food has arrived yet no silverware. Always some excuse about running out . Easy solution- order more. Today after this happened again I told our waiter who replied " I'm sorry you feel that way" . What- I dont feel that way, it's a fact. Food came in a reasonable time and tasted good. May be back but will come with my own utensils I guess. read more

So the wife and I took an off the cuff trip to Oregano's today, but assumed it would be really packed because it was Easter Sunday. We were pleasantly surprised and ended up only having about a 15 minute wait. The new location has a great bar with open windows behind it where they can serve customers on both sides of the bar, both inside and outside. The weather was perfect and the windows were open; almost felt like we were in some other state or country. Great ambiance! Now to the food; the margarita pizza was awesome as always, it has the most delicate flaky crust and is bursting with flavor. We also had the Italian Gold wings which has this amazing honey mustard barbecue sauce! You have to try these if you're a wing lover! They're the right balance of large crispy meaty wings and sauce to satisfy those with the most finicky appetite. Jaylin was our waitress and one of the better ones we've ever had at Oregano's! She was on top of keeping our drinks full, and made sure we had plenty of napkins for those messy wings. She was pleasant and always had a smile! Made the dining experience all that much better! Great job in the new location Oregano's! read more

Honestly I'm not interested at this point. I feel your establishment should have known better especially a manager your staff was so polite and kinda shocked the plate was not removed from my bill. read more

I give it a 5 star because of the service. We had a server who was very knowledgeable, and very friendly. Every experience should feel like you're their family. Jayleen, suggested a few great dishes, and we were all stuffed, even had leftovers. Thanks for the great service! Only one negative comment, hosts needs to be on the same page. One greeted us and asked a couple questions, second host greeted us, and asked the same questions. A little annoyed. (This happened the last time we were there too) read more

Nasty food and poor service. This was the third chance we gave it. Never again. I cant find anything on this menu that has any flavor. Portions are huge . Place is decorated great. Service at bar was poor. read more

My family and I are regulars to Oregano's but since COVID we had given them three chances and last night we have had enough! Twice before they told us they couldn't sit us or do take out order even an hour before closing. Yesterday My brother came to visit from out of town and wanted Oreganos. We gave it the third time is a charm type of deal but to our surprise once again they disappointed. They gave us an hour and half wait time. Almost approaching our 1.5 hour wait I went inside to see where we where on the waiting list for 6 of us, which consist of two toddlers and a child. They told us we would be separated or wait another 1.5 hours to be seated. Families that had arrived after us with bigger parties were being seated before us. The patio had already cleared up and still no table for us. I wasn't going to wait another hour and half in which the Manager Martina corrected me telling me I had not been waiting an hour and half but only 80 mins. With my toddlers whining of hunger we ended up at Mod Pizza across the parking lot. Once we got to Mod we got a call from Martina wanting to seat us down. A little to late. My family and I don't see us going back, and if we do it would be to Speedway. read more

Had a 1.5 hour wait once we were told 30 min. Bartender ignored us for 30 min. Didn't even know what Prosecco was. At an Italian restaurant really? 4 meals came out cold, rubbery, and no Alfredo on my Alfredo. Manger barely made any attempt to help we walked out hungry and irritated. I won't be back. read more

To me it seemed like they might have been a little overwhelmed with the afternoon weekend rush. Service was a little slow, but was not a problem. The food that we ate was tasty enough (I just wish I could remember what we ordered our first time there, because it was even better). If you're going during a busy time, I highly recommend checking in online through the Yelp App because that saved us upwards of 30-45 minutes waiting while there. However, our biggest issue was the food that we (our daughter) couldn't eat: the chicken fingers we purchased for our daughter were pink in the middle still. The waiter brought over the manager who handled it without issues by bringing out another order, except these too had pink in the middle. She removed the order from the bill, and offered a free cookie to make up for it, but it is a little worrying that multiple orders of chicken fingers were pink in the middle. read more

Literally sitting here right now. We waited an hour to be seated because they told us the patio was closed for tonight when it actually wasn't. Someone finally asked us what our party's name was and told us that there had been a miscommunication and that the patio was open and had been open the whole time. We've now been waiting an hour for our food. At this point we're not even hungry. It's not even busy enough for the wait to be this long. There are multiple empty tables. If we hadn't already been waiting two hours I would leave. Definitely won't be coming back here. read more

Once again we came to this location and ended up leaving. The first time they told us it was a 20-minute wait and it was 2 hours. This time we made a reservation and got there before the appointment time and we're told that it was two to three hours. I don't care how the food is if the service is this bad I will never spend my dollars there. read more

Horrible seating kept bringing up the waiting time! Never had this happen before in this Oreganos. And I'm never eating here again! Makes me want to work here to do a way better job. read more
