    Located in a shopping plaza. With plenty of free parking. I ordered the cevapi small meal, which came with 5 cevaps, lepinja bread, raw white onions, cabbage salad, kajmak, and ajvar. The halal cevapi were juicy, well seasoned, and cooked perfectly. The lepinja bread was soft and warm, great for building bites. Adding the raw onions gave it a nice sharp contrast, and the cabbage salad was fresh and light, which balanced everything out really well. The kajmak was creamy and rich, and the ajvar had that slightly smoky, peppery flavor that tied everything together. Simple ingredients, but everything worked exactly how it should. The place itself is clean and welcoming, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Food came out hot and fresh. Amazing Balkan food.

    + The Balkan (Bosnian) pizza was yummy, crunchy, and easy to eat. . I asked for side entrée recommendations. The clerk highlighted the Ćevapi (it's like a sausages sandwich). It was decent. I like that it comes with a variety of sides (onions and sauces). + Very friendly, helpful staff. + Decent amount of indoor + outdoor seating. + Pleasant ambience. + Ample free parking, but for some reason today (Saturday noon) was very crowded. . Though the pizza takes ~15min to cook, nice that there are nearby stores to walk around to pass the time. - The food was a lil exorbitant. Our total for a large pizza + a small Ćevapi was almost $40.

    Ćevapi are the best!

    I LOVE the ćevapi and pizza at this place. The ćevapi are some of the best, hands down, outside of Bosnia. (And I'm Bosnian so that says a lot!) They are consistently good, too! I've never been disappointed with them. The pizza is also amazing. It has a really good crispy dough and they have suho meso (smoked meat) as a topping which you honestly can't get anywhere else. The pita (burek and cheese phyllo wrapped savory pastry) is underwhelming, though. I wish they made their own dough for these. It makes a world of difference. The phyllo dough makes it very inauthentic, and is always doughey and undercooked towards the center. That is definitely taking a shortcut with pita and I wouldn't recommend that. Another downside is how dirty the bathroom usually is. They really need to have a better cleaning schedule here. This is a big turn off. Other than that, service is good and the usuals are consistently tasty so I will keep coming back for it. Oh, and everything is HALAL! So, a big win there!

    Came here for dinner and ordered a bunch of things to share. Cevapi -- delicious. I added all the condiments. I wanted a garlic component to it, like a sauce, so I added that to my leftovers and it was very tasty. The salad we ordered was also tasty. It was the Mediterranean salad. The pastry thing with spinach was good too. Sofra Urbana pizza was good too. Definitely want to come back again to try more.

    Love it, outmost flavorful and filling. It's been awhile and here we are again. They don't have fountain drinks anymore but they have drinks in their drink fridge to choose from.

    Saw the instagram post and my mouth started watering for the delicious food, we went there today for dinner, had the chicken ranch sandwich and the cevapi sandwich, both the service and foot rock, highly recommend it!

    Great casual dinner spot. Went for dinner with some guys and i was excited to try halal Bosnian food for the first time. Overall the meal and experience were excellent. My friends are picky about their meat and the flavor in the Cevapi (Bosnian mini kabobs/sausage) was impressive to all of us and the bread with it was also fresh baked - this is the one dish to definitely try. We also had the Sofra Urbana Pizza and the beef prosciutto on this was also delicious. The Erko pizza and chicken wings we had were also good. Restaurant was clean and the owner was very friendly and kept the place open a little late since we were a larger group so we could enjoy and finish our meal. Will definitely be back to try again!

    The place is pretty quaint with about two to three tables since I'm assuming it's mostly for people taking orders to-go. I had to look up the menu and have "Google" translate everything since I have no idea what everything is. I took the "Cevapi," which is like a pocket pita bread that you would find at the Olive Pit. The meat was really hot and not too chewy, but I wasn't too impressed with the bread, since it tasted a bit on the cold/"lukewarm" side, but the pickled veggies and onions were the BOMB!! Price is a bit up there for just a Cevapi for $10, but again, nothing to write home about.

    Sofra Urbana is a true gem in Fountain Valley. I came here for the cevapi and it completely blew me away. I've had this dish in Croatia before, and somehow it was just as delicious--if not even better--right here. The meat was juicy and perfectly seasoned, the bread was fresh and soft, and the accompaniments tied everything together beautifully. It brought me right back to my travels. Beyond the food, the whole experience was wonderful. The restaurant has a cozy, welcoming vibe, and the staff could not have been friendlier or more attentive. You can tell they take pride in sharing authentic Balkan cuisine. The portions are generous, the flavors are spot on, and everything feels homemade with care. I've heard rave reviews about their burek, stuffed peppers, and desserts, and after this visit I can't wait to come back and try more. Sofra Urbana is the kind of place that makes you want to bring your friends and family so they can experience it too. If you're anywhere near Fountain Valley, do yourself a favor and stop by. This is hands down some of the best, most authentic food you'll find in Orange County. Highly recommend

    10 piece cevapi 9/10 As a Middle Easterner, I'm someone who prides themself in knowing a little something, something about spices in food. I never imagined European food could taste so good! This Bosnian/Albanian restaurant serves something you've never heard of but need to try: cevapi (pronounced chevapi) What I can only describe as explosively flavorful mini Kabobs, served in fresh baked warm bread, accompanied by a side of a mayonnaise like cream sauce with a non-spicy tomato salsa, cilantro, and red onions. The kebabs himself taste like a combination of ground beef, spices, and I suspected cilantro . The only thing missing was a little bit of spice, but I'm sure on my next visit. I can ask for a little pepper sauce. This is such a satisfying dish that I am willing to pay nearly $20 for the larger 10 piece cevapi sandwich. That time I didn't get the pizza, but I'm sure it was delicious . I'll be sure to try it again next time Try cevapi!

    We've been craving cevapi since we visited Croatia last July and this place did not disappoint! Admittedly was better than the stuff we had over there. Service is also extremely friendly and the restaurant has a super cozy vibe. Will absolutely be returning!!

    Went there with my Bosnian buddy Sid right after the World Cup game with my Swiss jersey still on and was still welcomed :) and served a delicious dry meat/mushroom pizza and some other Bosnian specialties all super good.

    Do the staffs wear face masks and gloves when handling the food orders?

    As far as I have noticed, they do. I have visited them many times during the pandemic and they have always been considerate of the situation

    Is the meat Zabiha Halal ( hand slaughtered meat) ? Please advise.

    When I was there, I remember seeing that it stated halal on the menu, so I believe yes.

I'm concerned if this is being considered some of the best pizza in OC. We got two slices-- The sweet Gino and Pulp-Figton. The sweet Gino was good.. but everything else?? No. The pulp figton was tasteless, dry, filled with more pesto than anything else and burnt. I only ate half the slice and threw the rest away. We also got a pepperoni pie. The wait was about 25-30 minutes and when it came out it was BURNT/ BLACK on the bottom and top crust. When we took a bite the pizza tasted doughy in spots almost like it wasn't completely done. We were going to bring it back but figured if they made a new one we would have to wait another 25-30 minutes. Coming here, we basically took $50, lit it on fire, and threw it in the trash. You'd almost be better off at little Caesars. Looking back at old reviews and new ones.. There seems to be some serious issues here recently. I won't be back to this or any of Tony's spots.

    Such an amazing experience and SUCH great service!!…read more Okay, so I had to book this place with less than 48 hours' notice because our original outdoor venue became completely impossible when the weather forecast changed to over 101 degrees. We also had a princess coming for my daughter's birthday, and our princess impersonator doesn't perform outdoors once it gets above 95 degrees. Enter Pizza D'Z. Tien was SO incredibly helpful and accommodating, and honestly, this restaurant went way above and beyond my expectations. The restaurant itself is cute, convenient, and SO easy to get to and park at, which made everything so much less stressful. And the best part? There's no room charge! You just pay for the food and drinks. For a party of about 55 people, I spent around $1,200 and we had SO much food and drinks. And I'm not talking about just soda either. They had specialty coffees, matcha drinks, Thai tea, Vietnamese coffee with banana crème foam (OMG ), and so many delicious options. The food was FANTASTIC. My guests were literally raving about it. The portions were HUGEEEE. Everyone ate and we still had a TON of food for people to take home. We were able to have the restaurant for our party from around 10:30-1:45, so we didn't have to worry about setting up a kitchen, keeping food cold, bringing drinks, cleaning up a million things, etc. We basically brought our decorations, entertainment, and a few kids' activities and got to actually ENJOY the party. For a large party, this place is seriously such a STEAL. You get the space, the food, the drinks, the service, easy parking, and you don't have to stress about feeding 50+ people yourself. I honestly could not have asked for a better last-minute save for my daughter's birthday. Tien was amazing, the food was amazing, and our guests were so impressed. If you're thinking about having a large party here -- DO IT. You will not regret it!!

    Ever since discovering Joey's Pizza in the summer of 2024, I've been coming here occasionally ever…read moresince. To this day, I still purchase pizzas here as my preferred spot. I stumbled upon Joey's randomly when browsing local pizza places. I was on a pizza tour, trying to find the best local pizza place near me at the time. Joey's stood out to me because it ended up being my favorite. There is something very unique and delicious about their pizzas, which makes them stand out from other pizza places. I distinctly remember how delicious the pizza was compared to others. I believe they use quality ingredients and have a great recipe. Joey's is my favorite pizza spot because the pizza is really good, and the service is really friendly. They always have sports playing on the TV, and I talked to an employee about their favorite team. They not only provide great customer service, but they are also personable and friendly. I showed my cousin and my aunt Joey's Pizza once, and they still think about it to this day. They affirmed to me that it was delicious. My favorite and go-to order is a pepperoni, mushroom, sausage, and onion pizza. Their regular crust is good, but the thick crust option is also really good if you want a thicker pizza. The BBQ chicken pizza is also really good. Over the years, I've watched this business grow, they come out with nice artwork, a fresh website, and the store looks great. I've seen the things they've added over the years to create a SoCal theme, and I'm here for it. I'm always impressed with the changes when I come by every so often. I highly recommend ordering from Joey's because the pizza is great, but also the whole vibe.
