Dirty floor

I haven't been to Zito's in a long time... Their pizza is generally good but I can tell you after today's experience I will not be back. Number one, the restaurant was filthy. I cannot believe that they have not been closed by the health department. When we walked in, there wasn't a single clean table in the large room. I am not exaggerating. The tables for the most part empty, but the room had not been cleaned in hours. The floors were covered with trash, food, etc. We ordered two pizza, salad, and a drinks. If I had seen the state of the dining room prior to ordering, I would've left . One pizza was delivered after about 15 minutes. We were told the salad would come however it never showed up. After about another 15 minutes, I went to the counter and was told they would put the salad together, even though we had already finished our pizza. One would think that the salad would be delivered first, not after your pizza is finished . I asked about the second pizza only to find out that the order had not been placed. Since it had been so expensive, it never occurred to me that she didn't include the second pizza. Regardless, we went ahead and ordered the second pizza we were told the salad would come. After two more trips to the counter, he finally brought a salad with no dressing then after two more trips to the counter, checking on the pizza they had forgotten it underneath some boxes finally brought it out, and it was the wrong pizza. At this point, we just packed it to go. For the record, they must have been understaffed and I appreciate that the guy behind the counter was trying to make it right it's just that they couldn't seem to do anything right. However... The lack of cleanliness in the restaurant is not something I can handle. ... Zito's...You have been an orange a long time. I hope you can get it together. This was a big disappointment.

Lemon pepper chicken wings way too salty.

Spent close to $100 here and left disappointed. The pizza came out undercooked doughy in the middle, not what you want for that price. The chicken wings were also way too salty, honestly inedible. To top it off, they forgot to include the icing for the cinnamon knots, which is kind of the whole point of ordering them. Won't be rushing back unless there's a serious improvement in quality control

Looking for New York style pizza in Orange County? Then zoom over to Zito's Pizza on Tustin Street and get your pizza here along with the traditional Italian food favorites at this pizzeria which is one of 4 locations with this being the largest and includes an arcade! I came here with 2 other families which was a party of 12 including 6 kids and though there was no kids meal, we happily ordered a family style meal with salad, pizza, and the knots including fountain drinks. We had the dinner salad, spaghetti with marinara, cheese pizza, Zito's special, garlic knots, cinnamon knots, sugar knots, soda fountain drinks. My favorite was the pizza and knots especially the sugar knots. Everything was delicious and more than enough food to feed 6 adults and 6 boys; we even had some leftover because we were so full from the carb loading, well worth it though. The kids got to play in the arcade which had pinball machines ( Jaws & Venom), air hockey, basketball, Jurassic Park, and a racing game to name a few. This was an excellent place to have a meal and a play date all rolled into one. The staff were nice and accommodating, the venue was large enough for big parties, and parking was free with spots available. So for your next pizza outing whether it be for dine in or takeout, choose Zito's and mangia mangia (eat eat in Italian)!

Cheese pizza

I had some pizza from here on Halloween. The pepperoni with red onion was fabulous. The sauce and cheese were the perfect amounts. I also ate half a slice of cheese and took some home to my grandpa. I didn't order the pizza, but I can say it arrived quickly from the time it was ordered by my co worker..it was fabulous party food.

Love some pinball! Secret hack put two dollars into the venom machine you get three credits instead of two.

Hands down one of the best pizza spots in Orange County We visited Zito's Pizza on Tustin St and honestly it blew our expectations away. From the moment we walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming. It has that rare family-owned vibe where you can tell the people running the place genuinely care about the food and the customers. All four locations are run by the same family and it really shows in the quality and consistency. First off -- the ingredients are seriously next level. Their pepperoni isn't the typical factory stuff; it's sourced directly and you can taste the difference immediately. They even have jalapeño-infused pepperoni, which is incredible if you like a little kick. The garlic knot bread might be the best I've ever had. Perfectly baked pizza dough knots brushed with garlic butter and dusted with parmesan -- absolutely addictive. The wings are fresh, never frozen, and you can tell. Crispy outside, juicy inside, and tossed in great sauces. And the ranch... wow. They make it fresh in-house and it's easily one of the best ranch dressings I've had anywhere. We were dipping everything in it. The pizza menu is huge with tons of specialty options. We tried a couple and everything tasted fresh and high quality. Here's the crazy part -- three days later we reheated leftover pizza and the cheese still melted like it just came out of the oven. That tells you how fresh the ingredients are. They also have a great happy hour on draft beer and the wine deal is insane -- bottles for just $18 at a dine-in pizza restaurant is almost unheard of. If you have kids, this place is a dream. There are retro arcade games, pinball machines, and claw machines and my kids went absolutely wild. They had so much fun they literally passed out in the car on the way home. The restaurant is huge with tons of seating, which makes it perfect for groups. In fact, after visiting we're now planning to host a birthday party here for 50-60 people because there's so much space. They also have desserts, a big menu with something for everyone (salads, sandwiches, calzones, wings, appetizers, etc.), and everything we saw coming out of the kitchen looked amazing. We went to the Tustin St location, but now we're already planning to check out the Orange Circle location soon. If you're looking for a family-friendly pizza spot with fresh ingredients, great service, tons of menu options, and a fun atmosphere, Zito's absolutely delivers. We'll definitely be back again and again.

We love Zito's! We have been coming here for many years. Sadly, our order came out in different time increments. Pizza was great! Kids had fun. (It was for a football team end of season party) just wish that 3 people who ordered after us, got their pizzas and wings and salad before we got our sandwich. It was worth the wait!

A delicious twist on cinnamon rolls!

We had an amazing time and absolutely delicious food at Zito's Pizza! I am very picky when to come to Alfredo sauce and have never liked it at restaurants, but Zito"s did a great job! I felt like I was eating homemade sauce with lots of garlic, the only way to go! I enjoyed the Bianca pizza as is and then I spruce up an individual serving with sausage, olives and basil. So so sooo good! My son who picks off mushrooms from pizza ate most of my pizza as is and said he's never liked mushrooms on a pizza until he tried Zito"s. That's a big wow! Besides the fantastic food, the service is amazing. Very attentive and friendly staff. The space is so big it's perfect for parties. Yelp should hold an event here! The owner came to our table and chatted with us. We love supporting a local business with great food and great people. We will definitely be coming back and become regulars. Definitely recommend Zito's.

Margherita...look at that crust!

We are big pizza fans. Always on the quest for a great pizza. We stumbled on Zitos and I cant think of enough adjectives on how good it is.. We tried 3 different pizzas. Let's start with the crust..cooked perfectly. Not flat, not overly doughy. We tried this amazing spicy honey one. (Never heard of honey on pizza) but WOW it was good. The Margherita pizza did not disappoint. Finally the Zitos special...FULL of toppings...I mean every space had toppings...they do not scrimp like most places...and the flavor....oh the flavor!!!! Soooo good. The sausage was exceptional. Don't forget the garlic knots dipped in homemade ranch.. Beers on tap and wine..we are definitely going back!

Business Owner Steve!

GO HERE!!! If you want to feel ripped off by exorbitant prices for less than mediocre food, have to walk through a dirty entryway with food on the floor to pick it up & be misled by owner Steve's promises! (see pics below!) Steve...3 star average? You may want to update your mission statement. Only positive is young kid w/ long hair at the counter was really helpful (sorry we didn't catch his name). Last time for us at this establishment!

I don't want the two star review to reflect on our bartender. She was great. (Unless she was the one skipping our songs because low-key ... ) ... I did try to bring this to her attention and she kept saying it was because other people are playing priority songs ... however, when you buy a priority song, it does not skip the previous song or current song that is playing... rather, when you buy a priority song, it puts you next in line once the song prior to your purchase is finished playing. So clearly our songs were being deliberately skipped by the establishment as they were being "nexted" after only 10-30 seconds. Anyway, looking back now, I'm looking at her funny like were you the one skipping our songs? nonetheless like I said we tipped her well because we are good people. However, when you pay a lot of money for jukebox songs, especially priority (which was all that we did ...) for them to get skipped deliberately by the establishment immediately after they play one after another is a sad reality. If it really was the bartender the whole time skipping our songs I'm just genuinely sad because I guess you got us. You really played us. I thought you were our friend. Also, who skips "pour some sugar on me" at a bikini bar ... like that is so quintessential bikini bar and you skipped it ..! that's on you 10/04/26 11:30pm

We ordered the appetizer platter, which came loaded with all the favorites--fried pickles, onion rings, fried mac & cheese, mozzarella sticks, and chicken tenders--along with some wings. Everything was delicious, and the drinks hit the spot! The vibe is energetic, with great music, lots of TVs for watching sports, and plenty of room for bigger groups. It can get a little loud, but that just adds to the lively atmosphere. A great place to unwind, have fun, and enjoy a night out!

With plenty of parking this is the spot to hang with friends and relax with their famous beers and spirits and of course their top tier American bar food. Our waitress Emily was fantastic and on top of it, from her stellar service to her efficiency and urgency especially on a Friday night, our food came out relatively quick, which we appreciated. We started off with the 10 for $19 wings and had two sauces the BBQ and Buffalo which is what they are known for, from the gigantic size to the flavor. Wasn't too spicy but had a kick. The nachos with chicken was filling and really large portion for $19. For our entrees we had the pastrami burger and BBQ Bacon Burger with onion rings and fries. All cooked and tasted really well. For $17 it was definitely worth it in this economy. Overall if you want to hang and have a good vibes come here from billiards to full screen tv to a full bar and food, something for everyone.

Hi Melene Thank you for your response. I want to acknowledge…read morethat I did eventually sit down without being seated, and I understand that doing so was not consistent with your normal process. For that, I take responsibility. However, I believe your description leaves out important context that contributed to the situation. I waited in line like every other customer and spoke directly with the hostess. She was preparing to seat me, but then informed me that because I did not yet have all four members of my party present, I could not be seated. I explained that some members of my party were still looking for parking while others were on their way, and asked whether I could simply be seated as a party of one while I waited. I had driven a considerable distance specifically for this event and intended to purchase food and drinks. I was told that I could not be seated or served until the rest of my party arrived. What made this especially confusing was that the event had been advertised as first come, first served. Based on that advertising, I reasonably expected that arriving early and waiting in line would secure a place. Instead, I was told I could not be seated or served despite having arrived and waited my turn. Out of frustration, I briefly sat down hoping to get a drink of water and order food while waiting. When I was told I could not sit there, I immediately got up and left the table. I then asked whether there was anywhere else I could at least get food and water while waiting for my friends. Both the hostess and the manager informed me that I could not be served unless my full party was present. What further added to my frustration was watching a party of two get seated shortly afterward. Whether there were circumstances I was unaware of or not, it created the appearance that the policy was being applied inconsistently. My concern is less about being denied a table and more about the inconsistent messaging and customer experience. Had I been clearly informed in advance that "first come, first served" was subject to a full-party seating requirement, I would have planned accordingly. While I can acknowledge my role in the interaction, I believe there is also an opportunity for your business to reflect on how situations like this are communicated and handled. Customer dissatisfaction often comes not from the existence of a policy, but from inconsistent application and poor communication of that policy. Given the number of reviews expressing similar concerns, it may be worth considering whether there is a pattern that deserves attention. I wish your business success and appreciate you taking the time to respond.
