Excellent pizza place. We drove all around looking for a bite to eat and stumbled on this place. It was delicious. The pizzas are all unique with lots to choose from. The pasta was also very tasty. They have a variety of craft beers on tap and bottles too. read more

Came after a long day at the beach. They hand bread their chicken tenders, which is always a great thing to see! We left satisfied

Great pizza and customer service. Jared was so sweet talking to me after a mix up with an order.

So we came here pretty randomly, but WOW were we impressed! The pizza is amazing, we got the pesto pizza with no chicken on it and it was delicious! I got the cheese pizza also delicious! Crust was on point and so was the sauce, def recommended One thing we ordered that could be improved was the roasted broccolini. It was good but super dry and it just came on a plate full of spices- just wasn't prepared the best, but the idea is there! read more

Took over a hr to deliver pizza was wrong and cold. Said they were sending another pizza and never did. This was my 2nd bad experience

My family and I have traditionally enjoyed Pitfire pizza. However have learnt that not all of them are created equal. This is currently our favorite location. We asked for our kids food to come out at the same time as our salads. They nailed it. We also tried the meatballs and brussels sprouts this time. Both were excellent. As far as the pizzas go. The honey bear is tough to beat. And if you like mushroom, the field mushroom pizza is fantastic. We still haven't tried the dippers, but that will definitely happen on our next visit. The food was stellar, the service was good, and the drinks (both in the pizzeria, as well as the speakeasy and back) were amazing. Oh yeah, they have a speakeasy behind the restaurant that you enter through another door called Pie Society which get a little crowded but the cocktails are very well done! read more

Never been to a pizza place that you can order alcohol to go. I think this is the new norm after COVID but this is still my first place going with this experience! I'm excited for the pink pizza box. It's so cute and good to differentiate them with other pizza places. Highlights of the menu: 1. Mozzarella & basil pizza adding bacon, pineapple, mushrooms 2. Garlic ginger chicken wings 3. Pizza port beer I'll definitely come back and recommend this place to my friends and family. I like the white chalked drawings on the black wall. It's fun! Also, you'll get a free pin when you leave review on Yelp or Google. read more

The Mac and cheese was super yummy! Especially on a rainy day. Bring on the comfort food!

Juice was AMAZING. She was so knowledgeable about the menu and what drinks pair well with each pizza. She was a delight to talk to, great customer service, and extremely attentive to us. I have never been here before but I am writing this review because of the breath of fresh air she was and I will be returning with my family FOR SURE. read more

Decided to stop in for some pasta and a cold beer and was very pleasantly surprised! From the moment I came in I was greeted and didn't have to wait to seat or order... on top of that, the dining area was very open and clean, and the atmosphere was on point. The pasta was DELICIOUS. The beer was cold, and I had a nice selection to choose from. Justin, Mikayla, and Brianna were lovely and I received very fast friendly service! 10/10 would recommend. I'm definitely going to stop by again before I leave town. read more

Pitfire Pizza - Spaghetti & Marinara - Pizza Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The below was shared with Cody Hopkins Regional Manager of Pitfire. At first there was no response then I resent it and he claims he never received it. Yeah right. Long story short is they are happy with how their failing restaurant is. Good luck to them. I doubt they will be in business much longer anyway. They offered me a couple pizzas the next time I come in but their were many restrictions attached. I have been a big fan of Pitfire Pizza since the day it opened in my neighborhood. Lately there have been some issues which have been ruining the experience. 1. Food is taking forever to come out. ~45 min after ordering 2. Everything is coming out burnt. From the pizza to the garlic knots it's all burned! 3. Togo orders are constantly missing items 4. Staff's attitude is generally is very poor Please fix these issues so Pitfire can be what it once was. Happy to keep spending hundreds of dollars a month here but things need to be better. read more

This is the best pizza I have ever had. The service was great my food came so quickly.

This is one of our local neighborhood favorites. The atmosphere is cozy and great for groups and even small parties with a private room behind the main dining area. We love the steak salad and really any of their pizzas but especially the honey bear for a spicy sweet combo. With a legit pizza oven, the crust is always perfect. If you love a good speakeasy - grab a night cap at Pie Society. read more

I absolutely love this place and I found it on accident! Their pizzas are great and so are the buffalo wings. Their servers are always really friendly and gives the place a nice atmosphere. This place has more to it than just delicious food, but you must see for yourself! read more

The to-go order system here has not great in recent weeks. Pizza is never ready on time, so expect to wait at least 15-40 minutes past your set pick up time, at least in my recent experiences in past weeks! The pizza here is almost always perfect, although my to-go pizza tonight was burnt on one side and raw on the other. I also paid extra to add pineapple to my pizza and there were maybe 7 small chunks on the entire thing.. Super disappointing! read more

The Honey Bear pizza is great. The dough is perfectly chewy and the hot honey combo is well balanced. The chicken meatballs are addicting with a solid red sauce. Cesear Salad dressing I would buy if I could. So tangy and the greens are very fresh. read more

The pizza here is just something else! Their bbq chicken and pepperoni are just sooo good! The place is quite nice for any occasion even date night, the service is always good and the people are polite. Kinda sad you can't put 2 flavors in one pizza but other than that I love this place! Will definitely be coming back! read more

The food here is fantastic. The wings are fantastic. It's like a regular chicken wing that someone has taken the bone out for you. Relaxed sport bar vibe with the big pizza oven in the center. We've had this place several times through DoorDash but ate here for the first time the other day and it was awesome.great service making sure the sodas were always topped up and the honey pizza was out of this world. read more

Really poor service. Asked for assistance three times for the same item and eventually had to get up to walk over to the kitchen to ask for it again from the same waitress we had asked already three times. As the same girl kept saying oh yea, I'll get that for you and then she was just dancing around in the kitchen area not paying attention. Finally she brought us the item we had been waiting for. Once we were done, we had asked her for some boxes. She again forgot we had asked for boxes. Instead she went to the booth next to us to clear the table while we still waited for the boxes to go for another 10 minutes. Finally got up to grab the boxes ourselves. We were not helped at all for refills either. No one came to check on us during our time there and to top it off our pizzas were just okay, definitely have had better elsewhere. The pizza was pretty burnt, the crust burnt, the toppings burnt and very bland. The frozen margarita that I ordered tasted like metal and was water down but the ipa was good at least. Really sad because people have hyped up this place and it was a true disappointment. read more

This is our go to for casual pizza & sangria. The pizza is excellent, I'd recommend the Zoe's pepperoni - and we often add mushrooms. The red sangria is excellent as well, but they've been out of it on a few occasions. For a casual date night check out their speak easy "pie society". Service is always great as well! read more

Our favorite place! The best pizza and salad. Kid friendly too. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

The steak salad is so good! It's my go to here. When people ask me about this place, I always say the steak salad is so good!

Love the pizza but was given moldy Parmesan with my to go order. I tried calling twice to let you guys know to avoid giving to other customers but no answer. read more

Pitfire Pizza - Moldy cheese - Pizza Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

The pizza is always great. I have come a few times before and I always enjoyed it. Their crust is good and their pizza toppings are premium. I have recently noticed they began adding a hidden service surchage at 3%. That's the the kind of thing that drives me away and makes not want to come back. Seriously, just include it in the real price. read more

We always drive by this spot and wanted to check it out since we were craving pizza. We called and ordered a sausage party pizza and it was ready by the time we got there. I asked for jalapeños which they said they do charge extra for. My go-to pizza spots normally just give them to me. By the time we got home the pizza did get cold but we warmed it up and it was delicious. The different meats on the pizza tasted so good together. We will definitely be back but will probably eat there. This spot reminded us of pizza port. Super chill and a great spot to grab beers and pizza at! read more

Pitfire Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Used to be a favorite spot for events parties birthdays etc but over the past year or so the service & manner of the staff has declined to a degree that is unacceptable... to use a mild term. Mountain Mikes across the street has excellent service so that's our go to now. To be clear the service at Pitfire seems intentionally rude. Additionally they have some absurd California 3% charge to all orders that you can choose to decline but who wants to deal with that! Probably the main reason i'll not go back. read more

We moved to CM 6 months ago. Decided to try Pitfire a few months ago. The first issue we had was that they gave us the wrong pizza. With that being said, the salad was good. We decided to give it another try recently, figuring mistakes happen. We ordered ahead of time, a medium pizza and salad. Showed up 35 minutes after the order was placed and waited almost another 30 minutes. The guy apologized and was very nice. The salad was good again but the pizza was mediocre at best. Too many other pizza options around for us to want to go back. read more

The food was great....service however....TERRIBLE! Out of our group of three, we each ordered a pizza separately. Cashier decided to put it all on the same table number since we were all seated together. They seemed to have lost the two tickets for the other pizzas my friend and I ordered. Finally, after 20 minutes, my pizza came. We had offered to share with our friend, but she had customized her own pizza and wanted to wait to try that. My friend kept waiting for hers before I flagged down a waitress and told her that everyone had finished their pizzas and my friend was still waiting on hers. Waitress said she would check on it. Waited another 10 minutes and flagged down another waitress and was told "ooh they totally forgot about it. It's in the oven now." When her pizza arrived, my other friend and I finished eating. They made no apology. Didn't try to correct or appease us at all....in fact they purposely avoided our table and sent another person to come over and asked if needed more water or boxes. We had previously praised this place for great pizzas, but the service today makes us rethink coming back. read more

Love this join, great pizza that doesn't make me feel like shit after eating it. Wine and Tap is good. Just a solid spot, doesn't get much better than this. Even the sides are super solid read more

Always a great experience here and come often with family and friends. Great pizza, pasta, salads, and sides. Always good microbrew and sangria available. They always have some seasonal items to keep the menu fresh. The service and attitude from those that work here are always stellar. Will continue to come back with one caveat. One item that should be corrected is charging your customers a "Happy and Healthy 3% surcharge to support sustainable earnings and benefits for our team". That's tacky and off putting. And to put the responsibility on the customer to identify and request to be remove the charges is inappropriate. Figure out your pricing so you don't surcharge, penalize and put that additional responsibility on your loyal customers after we are tipping generously already in a tough economy. Every adult we come with or I've recommended to come here had the same opinion on this. Hope this business has the awareness to make the change. read more

I placed an order ON the actual website. It then directed me to DoorDash for the delivery option. I placed the order at 7:12pm and I am still waiting for 2 pizzas and 1 salad. I called and they said "oh, well it says we received your order @ 8:05pm". PLEASE SEE the email I received from the actual restaurant attached. No remorse or genuine apology. RIDICULOUS. I've had 2 DoorDash drivers already cancel and one said "I wouldn't order from this place again, they screw up all the time" Never will I ever. So sad because the food is great. Service.. needs to change. Especially for an almost $60 order! Ridiculous. read more

Pitfire Pizza - Time that I ordered - Pizza Near Me - Costa Mesa, California

Pizza is very ordinary. Had roasted Cauliflower as an appetizer and it was below average bordering inedible. Young crowd is nice but very loud inside. I will give them a break on that cause I am older. Won't go again cause I expect better. read more

We ordered the chicken pesto and the chicken bbq pizza and they were cold and they were dry and chewy. I asked my husband to go earlier to pick it up so it would be hot, just out of the oven and they were both barely hot. The pizzas were barely cut, we had to recut them ourselves. Really disappointed. Considering they are pricey and even charged an extra $4 for two small ranches. We went about two years ago and it was the same thing when we ate there. Lesson learned! read more

The amazing find of a truly delicious cauliflower crust is rare and valuable. Pitfire delivers on that and more. Honeybear pizza is already amazing as is, I'm sure. But I decided on this first ever visit to Pitfire to swap ricotta for fresh mozzarella and add pepperoni. Baby! I'm crying! Ooh ooh ooh baby baby! So so good! I was brilliant as well in grabbing a side of the new hot honey dipping sauce and now I can't forget that salty, sweet, spicy goodness first bite of Pitfire's Honeybear dipped in hot honey! I'll definitely return for more. read more

Excellent wood fired pizza. I love the Sausage Party pizza, it's like a meat lovers, enhanced with buffalo mozzarella, herbs, and a wonderful sauce. The Honey Bear pizza is also great with a sweetness along with spiciness. Good selection of beer, wine, and cocktails. You can also bring your own bottle of wine for a $5 corkage fee.
