Ameci Pizza & Pasta

My husband and I love this place! Nice to see that the staff is made up of teens that work and are pleasant. Great food. Totally recommending

The Pizza itcwas super Taste. Its like a family own business service super great. Home style flavor.

I go pretty often and get the 10 special. It's a large pizza with one topping. Feeds 2-3 people (depending on how big of a pig they are) and is good for the price. Definitely better than little Caesars but not as good as Papa John's. The staff is nice and even when busy they seem to have it under control. Free cheese and pepper packets are out if you want to put extra on your pizza. And as a nice touch they have the pizza sizes on the wall.

Drive all the way from the valley down south to get pizza from this place , such a unique taste , excellent and highly recommend

Great pizza and the pasta is good too. New York jumbo style. They sell slices for $2.50 and have a great lunch special too. This is my favorite pizza I grew up eating them in the valley and was so glad to find locations in OC

Standout pizza! I ordered a large sausage and pineapple pizza and ended up eating in all to myself, the pizza is outstanding. You can really taste the quality and expertise that goes into a great tasting pizza like this. I know I will be a customer of Ameci's for a long time to come.

Ameci Pizza is the best. In fact I have tried a lot of there stuff and I have never felt disappointed. They have everything from pizzas, sandwiches, salads and a variety of pastas. Ameci's staff is always awesome. I've been coming to Ameci's for long time. Great place to eat. Love it ❤️

Yum! My new favorite pizza place. Lasagna and pizza are amazing. Cheese is amazing too. So stringy and REAL! Ironically I've lived in the area for the last 30+ years and didn't realize I had it so good till now. Thanks Ameci!

Ameci is an all-around quick and inexpensive Italian option, whether you are in the mood for any common variety of pasta, meatballs, pizza, and salad. Not fancy, but the price is right for the family who just wants that pasta fix! Parking is plentiful as this is in a local strip mall off Magnolia with a grocery store as well. Garlic bread is good too!

After checking out several pizza spots, we finally landed on Ameci Pizza, and we couldn’t be happier with our choice! Their prices are fantastic compared to other places, and the food? Bomb bomb bomb! We ordered the pepperoni pizza, Deluxe Calzone, antipasto salad, spaghetti and meatballs, and garlic bread, and everything was on point. The pizza had the perfect amount of cheese and pepperoni, the calzone was stuffed to perfection, and the antipasto salad was fresh and flavorful. The spaghetti and meatballs hit the spot, and the garlic bread was crispy, buttery goodness. If you are visiting the area like we are check them out.

Cheap pasta, that is excellent quality! All pastas are less than $10. Choose from a variety of gourmet pasta combinations. I highly recommend the house pasta which is penne with chicken, artichokes, and sun dried tomatoes. I highly recommend you sub in the pink sauce. In fact it's all about the pink sauce! If you don't want to order the house special pasta, then still ask for the pasta of your choice to come with pink sauce. The lasagna is average. The pizza is average. The fried zucchini is average.

🌟 GOOD VALUE, GOOD PIZZA & FRIENDLY SERVICE 🌟 ✔️ STAFF = Never had a problem here, sometimes the phone ordering can be a bit abrupt, but I don't really care. ✔️ FOOD = My friends and family 'warned' me not to go here to eat. I decided to check it out anyway and found everything to be fine. Pizza tasted much better then DOMINOS, PIZZA HUT & DIGIORNO. The crust is a little thin and sometimes soft, but it is very good to me. ✔️ DETAILS = They always have a game on TV of some sport & the tables have been clean every-time I visit. I have eaten here dozens of times & no problems yet. I am picky about sticky dirty tables, so if they had issues I would note them. :: OVERALL :: They offer a variety of food (see my menu picture) and I have wanted to try other things. I do not like GARLIC & saw a complaint/review about too much garlic - I have not had that problem after ordering close to 50 pizzas. The food is always done on time, paying at register is quick, grabbing TOGO orders is very easy. I have no complaints & I am glad I ignored my friends/families complaints :)

I have only been here once. The pizza was picked up Monday Aug 3rd 2020 during the covid pandemic. The crust was made very well. The toppings were not greasy. Overall it was a very good pizza. I only interacted with a younger woman over the phone and in person. I don't know anything about the man others are complaining about. I would definitely recommend this pizza to anyone. The key to a good pizza is crust because topping are interchangeable and the crust I received was prepared very well. The image is the box that carried the pizza. Lol in case you forget you bought ameci pizza.

They have great takeout deals as well as delivery deals as well as amazing salads. Their pizzas are ridiculous. What a great local place!!

This was a complete surprise. We intended to go somewhere else for pizza but it was out of the way so we decided to pull in here since we were getting gas nearby. We honestly didn’t expect much. Just wanted a slice to hold us over until our dinner at the beach. We were thoroughly impressed at how tasty the pizza was. We hadn’t planned on ordering pizza for our dinner at the beach bonfire but it was good enough that we wanted to share. We ordered 3 large pizzas and it took about an hour and half to get to us. Which was fine since we had tons is snacks to munch on. Everyone really enjoyed the pizza and asked where it was from. Super happy we discovered this place and will definitely be back again in the future.

We ordered two large pepperoni and cheese pizzas. Large serving of pasta with meatballs. And four of us devoured it. This is not the first time we’ve done this from this place. This is amazing Food highly recommend it.

Took 2 pizzas what like 15 minutes they are amazing and believe me the people are kind and seem very humble 🙏 I would totally recommend this place the food is delightful and very delicious 😋 I give this place a 10000 out of 10

Easily a new local favorite for me. The crust is great and not too thick. Got a large take out of Pepperoni and sausage last 3 visits. Yum. Family loved it too

Our company would order pizza every Sunday from a different places whether they were major chains or hole in the walls just to see who is the best. Some great pizzas out there but this location took the blue ribbon. Not just on flavor but they are tops on value. You can order a giant size at some companies and it looks like a medium. Hats off to our winner!!!! We’ll see you every Sunday.

Our to go place for catering . Food is delicious and the prices are great . Staff is friendly. Not sure what to get ask an employee. My favorites are the calzone and the giant pizza meat lovers . For catering we get a bunch on pizzas and pastas . Fettuccine Alfredo definitely a must try . Pizza is thin crust reminds me of my trip to New York . Place is a bit hidden , close to the dollar tree . Plenty of parking in the plaza . Don’t forget your Dutch bros coffee in the same plaza lol .

Pizza is pizza even when it’s bad it’s good this place is great though the garlic rolls are great however my order of chicken wings was pretty lackluster somethings usually off about the chicken wings I can’t leave my finger on it I am not in the pizzas always a home run!!

This place is a hidden gem. It's high quality food and the portions are way more than enough - I haven't managed to completely finish a dish yet - and reasonably priced. These kinds of meals go for $15+ at a normal sit-down restaurant. The decor is nothing special, better for take-out, but it doesn't taste like take-out, and that's the magic. I suppose the basic decor helps keep prices down, and that's awesome. I haven't tried the sandwiches yet, but the dinners are great and I highly recommend them. Delivery is $1.50, and it takes about 10 minutes if you order in for the food to be cooked, delivery 30 minutes and $10 minimum, it's worth the wait. Give this a try. Kudos to the smart person who posted the menu as the main Google Maps image, that is what got me there the first time!

One of my favorite pizza places. We will definitely be back again! #LOCALGUIDES

Food was good. Online menu pricing is not updated. Pleasant, friendly staff.

So either I'm getting older or I'm learning this place goes to heavy on the sauces and gives me acid reflex shortly after eating it. Doesn't matter what i order(pasta wise) love the food here other than that.

Not bad, slow service They only have one oven, so be ready to wait for awhile to get your pasta or pizza.

Update: We stopped going to this place since they seem to not understand customer service. A man cut in front of a very long line & the cashier did NOTHING. I even walked up to tell them the guy cut in line. The rude jerk was a pompous a-hole. Moving on- the cashier said he couldn't do anything. Maybe he didn't notice the jerk cut the line BUT... he didn't seem like he cared much either. Not cool. (this was a while ago but the rude jerk clearly scarred me for life). Thanks Ameci. --------- Great pizza and pasta and just about everything 👍👍👍

I recently ordered from here for the first time and I was very underwhelmed. One of the items I ordered was the chicken arrabbiata. There was barely any sauce or chicken. The tomatoes were still somewhat raw and not the advertised Roma tomatoes as you can see in the photo. I would not recommend this dish. The other good was alright. I gave 4 stars for the other ratings because I didn’t have any issues. But, I did only pick up.

The pizza is okay, but the meatball sandwich was the most flavorless, blandest, crappiest meatball sandwich in the history of the world. It's like being robbed of $11.

First time ordering from the place. Ordered online and took a 15 minute break from work to go pick it up. Finally got to sit down and eat it about half an hour later (cuz I was helping clients) and it was way too garlicky. Tried to call and get my money back since there was no way I could eat it and they said that wasn't possible since I didn't call right when I got "home" (back to work) and I ate some. Guy on the phone even said sometimes their chefs don't pay attention to what their putting in their food. I am never ordering from here again. Food was awful and customer service sucked. I just hope I don't get sick before my race tomorrow.

Food is pretty good for the price. I wouldn't get anything but the pizza. Service is mediocre and the owner walks around like he's to good for his customers.

Ordered a steak sandwich...it went right through me cook was touching sink at same time making food. I got sick. I am sitting on toilet as we speak. Only ate half. Thank GOD!!! They usually are on point. Not today.

Older male employee, VERY RUDE!!! Pizza’s great, but you can get good pizza anywhere and not be talked down to! Won’t return!

Very negative vibes when walking in. Asked the man at the counter, "How are you?" No response. Nasty looks from all the workers behind the counter. My family and friends will spend our hard earned money elsewhere.

Ameci has great pizza, however, the last time I went they had a special on two one-topping pizzas. I asked if they could, instead of putting one topping on each of the two pizzas that they put two toppings on one pizza and the other with no toppings. Their answer was “no”. I really thought they were joking. When I got the cold stare back I asked them “why not?” they said “it’s policy.” Haven’t been back since. There are plenty of other great pizza places.

Ordered a medium double pepperoni well done, came in and the lady at the register tried to switch the price for $28. And she told I should have ordered a large at 10.99. Why would anyone pay for a smaller pizza and almost 3x the price. A rip off. Will not come back

I used to eat here and the pizza and service were great but in the last year the quality and service have hit rock bottom. I was going to get a fountain drink and slime came out of the machine I told the man working there and he didn't even care I took a picture of the soda machine it's the worst one I've seen looks like they don't clean it or maintain it properly very unsanitary imagine what it looks like inside. The pizza was also dry like cardboard and the salad was black and dirty

I found a cockroach in my pizza!!!!!!!! when I called to talk to the manager about it they refused to speak to me and hung up on me Definitely getting reported

There is an Ameci pizza that’s great by my apartment in Los Alamitos and I don’t know why this location is so much different but the pizza here is so gross. Crust is thick in the middle. The cheese had no flavor. Thankfully, I ordered this through DoorDash and I got a refund because I couldn’t even eat this. I left it outside for homeless people. I got spaghetti too. No surprise it was absolutely flavorless. I don’t know how you can make food with no flavor but these people did it. I will never order pizza from this place again. I’m so upset because this was my treat. I’m diabetic and I cannot always eat stuff like this and I just wasted my treat on frozen pizza and Campbell’s Chef Boyardee cause this is not real food. I almost sat there for a minute and started licking things in my car because I’m like how does this have no flavor.

Ordered two medium pizzas and it took them over an hour to get my pizza. When I called in for an update, they said that the diver had car problems. If that was the case, where my update? I didn’t get a call, discount or refund. All I got was “sorry”. Last time I order from here. For reference - placed my order online at 6:12pm on 10/2/2025. Hopefully the owner sees this and take action with his team.
