The store I work out of is less than a block away so when I needed a quick lunch on an inside day, I thought I would try this place. I drove by Ciros for years without ever thinking about trying it, Selection is broad with subs, pasta and pizza. Prices are reasonable for generous portions. Walking inside at lunchtime, there were no customers. It appears most of their business is take out or delivery. There is a tv and 8 – 10 tables. I walked up to the counter to order and not wanting pizza I opted for a cheese steak sub and it was pretty good, it contained tomatoes, shredded lettuce green peppers, onions and stringy gooey cheese that permeated throughout. The plentiful shredded beef was tender and extremely hot after baking in the pizza oven for 15 minutes. I retrieved a can of diet coke out of the cooler and this sandwich for about $ 10. There was enough bread that I couldn’t get my mouth around the whole sub and it was so juicy with sauces that the bread fell apart as I tore into it with my teeth. I ended up using the fork that was included in the take out bag and ate the insides while leaving much of the soggy Italian bread. I have had better cheesesteaks however at the time, this took care of my empty spot! Overall lacked freshness but still better than some of the national chains at their best.

I’m really surprised this place is still in business. They must make most of their money on pizza deliveries. I was starving and there is not much to eat in South Irving besides fast food. I stopped in and it was one older women and a young kid at the register. The older woman was watching tv and eating while I ordered and than she went in the back to cook my food. I ordered a Chicken Marsala and it came with a salad and stale bread. The portion was huge. It was like I got a whole chicken with a little bit of pasta. The sauce was horrible and the chicken was dry. I asked the kid what was the best menu item and that is what he suggested. If this was the best they got than no just no! I wont be back. I doubt the pizza’s could be that much better. Too bad because this place is right down the street from me.

If you are Italian you do not go into a Mexican restaurant that offers italian good and expect anything more then a cheap knockoff. Not worth it for myself or the trip

We ate here on our way out of Dallas. We were hungry for pizza and this place was close so we figured we’d give it a shot! We ordered the fried cheese and a 16″ pepperoni pizza. The fried cheese was ok… just frozen cheese sticks haha but the marinara sauce was good! The pizza was actually really tasty. It is definitely a hole-in-the-wall place but it’s good! Another customer in there at the time had a calzone… it was enormous. So huge portions, not a bad price, and it’s local. Not a bad deal! They did only have canned drinks though(everything was out in the fountain) but no problem for us. We enjoyed it for a quick lunch. The waitress and the man delivering pizza were both really friendly. I would recommend it!

Came across this place by accident but was coincidentally hungry for pizza so I decided to stop by. This your average hole in the wall pizza/Italian restaurant. What it makes this place besides its decent pizza are the people who work here. They are super friendly and willing to give you suggestions. Also if you speak Spanish you will have no problems ordering pizza. You get a huge 18″ pizza for about $ 13 with two toppings. I went with half plain and the other half with shrooms and pepperoni. The pizza came out piping hot and really hit the spot. We also ordered a salad with house dressing which was average. The pizza was good, so that is at least 3.5 stars. The service was was nice and we had a good time talking to the people who work there. They were very attentive and helped me out with my order. The service was 4 stars. The cost was cheep for good food so I give that 4 stars. So I’m looking forward to coming back here for slice of pizza($ 2.00) and maybe a Stromboli. When I do I’ll be sure to update my review.

Drive by Every now and then I drive down Beltline to visit family in Grand Prairie. I noticed a small little Italian place called Ciros Pizzeria. I make a point of supporting my local mom and pop places so I decided to get a slice of pizza and some lasagna. The place is pretty unimpressive. Just an older building and the interior is about the same. They have a cafeteria style counter so you can see what they have. To be honest the food was just okay. I wish I could say more, but it was pretty standard Italian fare.
