Oggi’s Pizza Express

I went in for the first time today and the lady who helped me was SO NICE! Easy sauce, regular cheese and some jalapeños and the whole time she’s focused on making my pizza perfect for me. I ate every single slice and it was amazing! I wish I could do more stars so I’ll say 10 for pizza and 10 for service. Thanks Oggi’s, I’ll be returning soon and bringing friends with me!

So much better than Pizza Press. Pizzas are assembled with care and cooked to the perfect crispy crust without burning. Our favorite design-​your-​own pizza place!

So this was my first, and my last visit to Oggi’s. The staff was really cool here, but that’s about it. The pizza? Tasteless. The crust lacked any flavor and seemed like something you would buy at a dollar store to pop into the oven. I think you have to be great when you launch a new concept. Oggi’s truly failed.

Had a good pizza but girl was rushing me. She dissent even ask me what kind of do or sauce .It came out warm could of been toasted more l like mine crunchy.

First visit and really liked their pizza. The guy who helped us was super nice and explained how the ordering process worked as well as what we could order. The food was really good. This is my new favorite fast food pizza place. The restaurant is clean with lots of large screens playing different sports. Not busy at all but parking can be hard only because it’s mall parking. Lots of drink options alcoholic and not

Build your own pizza. If this is the future of pizza joints, I don’t want any part of it. Its like Home Depot decided to enter the pizza biz and opened shop on aisle 6 next to the dry lumber. Oggis’ had a decent pizza and forgot how to make it when the shareholders turned the key. Toppings on a tortilla. Thats the jist. Too bad flavor and ambiance are not on the menu. If you see this place… keep walking. I guess you could do worse at another eatery, but you might enjoy it more. Not worth the calories. Your welcome. PS they make salads. Ill let someone else review it.

The crust is super thin, the ingredients are fresh. It’s a cute little place. I loved that even during rush hours their employees were super friendly and they were on top of making sure the place stayed cleaned.

Been coming here since it opened. Good pizza. Reasonable price. Typically nice folks. Tonight was terrible. Bad service. Rude manager on duty. Won’t be back.

If your a pizza person then this is your place to go there service is excellent fast and good.

Highly recommend. This is custom build-​your-​own pizza or salad place. I had lunch there, based on a whim of being in the area and it was a very pleasant surprise.
I’ve tried a lot of build-​your-​own pizza places, and this is my new favorite. The pizza is 10″, and it is $ 7.99. The pizza looks small, but it will definitely fill you up. They have some sauces and toppings you won’t find at other places. In addition to the usual red sauce as the base, you can get PESTO sauce or even bbq sauce. They also have zucchini, artichoke hearts as topping. All of their meat toppings have no hormone. They do not offer salami though. Their dough also rises very nicely and it has a lot more body than the dough from Blaze or Pieology. Very nice crustification on the dough too. Oggi’s pizza tastes more like a real pizza, and you definitely feel more full even eating just half the pizza.
They also have a make your own salad bar, wings, and lots of beer options. Also lots of TVs all over the walls.
The service was very friendly, the guy making the pizza was very nice and explained us the ordering format and even answers some questions I had about the restaurant. Oggi’s use to be a larger restaurant catty-​corner to Walmart and World Market. They closed that and opened an «Express» version next to Sprouts, which is much more convenient if you just want a quick bite. The manager came by to all the tables and asked how everybody is doing. It was definitely a great experience, and I plan to return.

Never thought I would enjoy a pizza with no pizza sauce as much as I did this one. I’m looking forward to coming back and trying other things, the workers were helpful polite and professional really like this place can’t wait to come back… keep up the great work guys.

Oggi’s Pizza Express is one of the many «create your own» pizza places that have been popping up everywhere lately. Oggi’s is $ 8 for a personal sized pizza with unlimited toppings.
I went with Brian D on a Saturday night and it wasn’t too busy. I opted for the BBQ chicken pizza which is a suggested pizza you can order and added pineapple and artichoke. The crust at Oggi’s seems to be a little thicker than the crust at Pieology or Blaze.
Our pizzas didn’t take long to make at all and were pretty good. The chicken on my pizza had that weird day old chicken taste (but I am weird about chicken) so next time I will get my pie sans chicken.
Oggi’s has a nice beer selection and the staff is friendly. Even though we live closer to the circle where there are two BYOP places, I can see use going to Oggi’s more because parking is easier and we like the crust better.

Pieology-​type places are popping up everywhere. Oggi’s is one of them. Their new Pizza Express side is pretty cool. Personal size pizza with any toppings you want for $ 8. Can’t complain!
I do like my pizza well done — extra crispy but not burnt — so I requested it. When I got it, it was not crispy at all. But I ate it anyway. One of the guys from behind the counter walked around and asked how my pizza was. I told him the truth, with my pizza half-​way done. He was nice enough to offer to put the remaining of my pizza back into the oven and it did come out much better! Awesome customer service!
I also tried their «The Killer» wings, Louisiana style, and it was pretty delicious. Taste kinda like Buffalo but with a stronger, sweeter, and spicier flavor. They came out really hot where you can see smokes coming out. Awesome. There are 6 per order.
All in all, good alternative if you don’t wanna get in line at Pieology that’s right next to Cal State Fullerton full of poor and hungry college students. LOL

Very nice options for your pizza, wings are nice and many beverage choices. Pieology best becareful. This is really nice!
Peach tea, regular tea, raaberry tea, peach lemonade and strawberry lemonade!

Made to order, quick fired $ 7.99 personal pizza joint located towards yhe middle of The Village of Orange, facing the parking lot. What once was a sports bar, has now moved its location a few doors down and downsized to a popular build it your way style pizza, salad, wing place with TV and beer.
You know the drill. For $ 7.99 plus tax you customize your pizza from the dough, to the sauce, to the cheese, meat and veggies. Then its cooked in lightening speed. Pretty cool concept for cheap pizza.
The staff was friendly and very efficient not cutting any corners while constructing pizza masterpieces. Extra sauce? No problem. More cheese? Pile it on. Definitely not stingy on toppings. But, I know less is more. The more toppings, the more likely the pizza is not going to cook properly.
I customized 2 pizzas. The BBQ chicken style one had garlic infused oil, bbq sauce, mozerella cheese, bbq chicken, bacon, garlic, red onions, and roasted red peppers. The crust was thin and a little chewy, almost like pita bread. But the pizza was light, not to greasy like some places.
Second pizza was garlic infused oil, red sauce, mozzarella cheese, pepperoni, sausage, bacon, garlic and red onions. The red sauce was lacking the true tomatoe flavoring. The quality of the meats were just meh. The bacon is a little chewy and the sausage a little bland. The pizza wasn’t terrible but it sure did not turn me on. But, you cant beat the price or the convenience of customizing your pizza without paying a fortune.
Out of the 2 pizzas the BBQ style one was the best.
I would eat here again. Its not the best pizza or a 4 to 5 star pizza compared to other places. Buuuut I like being able to make 2 pizzas, then sharing. It is a win win. I would stick to BBQ sauce for sure.
This would be a fun place to take children do they can create their own pizza and get those veggies in their diet.
4 star service and price, 3 star food. A okay
Review #592

I feel like a complete A-​Hole for giving them two stars, since they were so kind to give out free pizza on tax day! But I guess I’d be giving them one star if they hadn’t done that.
I posted the comparison photo of Valentino’s pizza, because it seemed to most resemble Oggi’s pizza in appearance, but I couldn’t figure out why Valentino’s was so delicious and why this one was so awful, so I have figured it out I think.
By the way, I have been to the real full-​size Oggi’s and thought their pizza was really tasty, so I was very disappointed to find out that this pizza was in a whole different category. It’s nothing similar in the slightest.
Valentino’s starts out with raw pizza dough and cooks it long enough to cook the dough through, which then guarantees the cheese is totally melted through and the pepperoni’s have that crispy edge to them. Oggi’s on the other hand, starts out with a pre-​cooked crust and after they throw the toppings on, they cook it for what seems like maybe only five minutes, just long enough to sort of melt the cheese, but it’s not melted as nicely as a full cooked «real» pizza.
The other thing I’m comparing to Valentino’s is the flavor of the sauce and the cheese. The flavors were just not there for some reason. There was a blandness to the mozzarella, but beware of the pesto sauce and do not ask for extra, because it’s very salty and they do know what they’re doing to only put a little bit on. You will ruin your pizza if you ask for more. I tried this place twice to give it a fair chance. The 1^st time, i ordered pesto sauce and the 2^nd time, I ordered pizza sauce.
Also, the dough tastes like a soft keebler saltine cracker and it reminds me of the type of pizza you’d get if you bought a pre-​made pizza crust at Vons and threw on your own toppings and tried to cook it. If you like that sort of thing and the way it tastes, then you’d like this place, but I don’t go out to pay for food that I can make taste the same by making it at home. I guess this is why I don’t order grilled chicken breast at restaurants. Same idea. You can make a grilled chicken breast at home that tastes the same for less cost than what the restaurant is charging you. Same idea with these hamburger places so many people like and I won’t name names for risk of being egged. The hamburgers taste like something you could make at home, so why not go to one that sells the kind that do not taste like what you make at home?!
This was the worst pizza I’ve had in years and I couldn’t even finish the last two pieces because the cheese was already thick and coagulated. Pizza is my favorite food and even if it’s not that great, it’s still ok enough to eat it all — like frozen grocery store pizzas for example. Even those were not horrible enough to throw out, so that tells you this had to be bad!
I feel bad for writing this, but at the same time, it’s a little expensive for what you’re really getting in the end, compared to what you could get just down the street a ways. Their pizza is bigger than Valentino’s, so I can acknowledge my comparison isn’t 100% fair, but Valentino’s packs so much flavor into a smaller size too. I’d rather eat a smaller pizza that is delicious than a larger one that is so terrible, I have to throw it away. On the other hand, if you like beer, then there’s no place that could compare since you can get beer here.

My SugaryKids are bigtime pizza lovers. We’ve been to 5 pieology grand openings last year so when Oggi’s Express had theirs on TaxDay, we were stoked! Well, Daddy was stoked and the kids just went along.
I’ve been a long time customer of Oggi’s and Left Coast Brewery. I mainly go to the one on Harbor and Chapman. The pizza is great there, so are some of the pastas but the beers are just outstanding. I don’t think this location will have a happy hour, but I would love one. They have 20 different taps including Goose /​Coors/​Trestles. This place also has wings and salads but no pastas and no kid size pizzas.
I think Oggi wanted a slice of pie (no pun intended) in the Pieology /​Blaze /​PizzaRev, these quickfire pizza places. I mean, why not? They have everything already. Wouldn’t you expect a Pizza Hut express or something comparable too? What I love about this place is the toppings. The toppings are full sized toppings. By that, I mean if you see the size of the Italian Sausage, it’s not crumbled like Blaze. The cheese looks great and everything looks fresh. The pizza is freshly made to order. That I like. The dough on day of, I wasn’t quite impressed. It tasted like cardboard. But oddly enough, I ate it the next day after popping into the toaster and it tasted chewier. That I liked.
So for $ 8, it’s definitely up there with the competition. The only thing I sort of liked and disliked was the conveyor belt heating system. (Like the one from Costco). Your pizzas seems to come out slower than that of those 800 degree ovens. However, it won’t have any of those burnt spots either. So if you like it a little bit rustic, you might not like this heating element. However, it was done just crisp enough that won’t burn the hands of kids.
There’s TVs in here and a patio area. They have sodas as well as these flavored waters (lemon or cucumber) which was interesting. I didn’t taste anything in the water except for the water itself. I’m a fan, so I’ll be back but make sure to make a happy hour for me on the beers because I love the beers.

Review is for not for pizza but a salad.
For $ 8, you can build your own salad as well as a pizza. It’s a very good size too. Found this place by walking by, looking for a healthy meal to eat. Not a bad option compared to Chipotle across the way and a satisfying option for the gym rats next door.
It’s fresh and tasty as expected, but 1 star for not having anything innovative. 5 stars are reserved for the standout spots.

Super solid. From mild to wild you can customized your pizza with unlimited toppings for only $ 7.99.
The staff are very friendly.
pizza, salads and wings are off the hook.
With 20 taps full of local craft beer and wine you can’t go wrong.

Yep, I’m a fan. Several of these type of pizza places have popped up and this one finally got it right. Why? It’s all in the cheese. Watch the others guys — they all skimp on the cheese. Sure, it melts and covers the entire pizza, but it’s such a thin layer — who cares?
And I have to say it. The whole ‘brink oven’ thing — I don’t get it. It seems like they sacrifice something, mainly in ultra thin crust. Oggi’s has a conveyer belt oven. It stays in the until it’s done, but when someone ‘thinks’ it’s done on the so called brick over. Sorry other guys, but Oggi does it better.
I kind of wish they were open later as I work in the evenings and would love to have an Oggi option after 9pm, but that’s being super picky and honesty just hoping for a dream. Kind of like winning the lottery. I buy tickets, but no there’s no way I’m going to win.
Oggi’s is on my list of pizza to regular visit. I would worry if I owned a Sbarro.
