What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
La Torcia Brick Oven Pizza is lauded for its delicious, thin-crust pizzas and friendly service, with many highlighting the flavorful specialty pies and appetizers. However, some diners have experienced issues with inconsistent food quality, such as overcooked pizzas and smaller portion sizes than expected, as well as occasional service hiccups.
"After waiting for a host, the menu was explained for the favorite items. My bacon chicken ranch pizza was really good. Not too much bread, with a crunch. Like a thin crust without the stomach bloating. Great pizza size, and flavor. Sweet tea, and drinks available, ensure a great time. Such a family friendly atmosphere, it was very peaceful. I've seen this before. I was checked on my 5 different employees... I've had an awesome time. I'll be back."

"We love this place! The menu is amazing…so tempting! My 8-inch cheese pizza was perfectly cooked: crisp on the bottom, not floppy.
I had the small Mortar salad: it’s not small! Great combination of ingredients. Get the dressing on the side in case you want to take some home.
We had the sweetest server; Rebecca. She made us feel very welcome and special. She’s a peach. And a great waitress."

"I live out of town and it was my son's birthday and he wanted brick oven pizza. First of all I was trying to call the establishment because I had specific orders to add an additional side of Peta bread to the spinach dip but I kept getting a message that they were not receiving phone calls. Then I tried to place an online order and it got to the point to where it was requiring me to set up an account on their website so I did that but then it would not let me get past the submit button after I filled everything in. So I was required to download the app that I did not want to download. I placed an order and sent my friend to go pick it up. I ordered a large Double Trouble pepperoni pizza. I did not make any changes to the way that this pizza came Or was supposed to come which was regular pepperonis. It did not describe that it would come with cupped small pepperonis which tastes different from regular pepperonis. So imagine my surprise when these pizzas get home and there's cupped pepperoni's on this this pizza. It also did not have the shredded cheese spread out throughout the top of the pizza it was only in 2 places. I have attached screenshots of the pizza picture from the website and what it looks like and the other picture of the Double Trouble pizza that I received they look nothing alike not the same amount of cheese not the same type of pepperoni not the green basil type stuff that was supposed to be on the top. My son tasted it and said it was disgusting. But my other pizza I order came with regular pepperoni. The spinach dip that we ordered barely covered a little bit of the container. I will never order from here again I should have listened and gone by the previous reviews I was reading on how bad the food in the service was at the establishment. I can't even call them to speak to the manager about the problem because the phone number that is listed on the internet tells me that they are not accepting phone calls when I call it."
