Ciros Pizzeria & Beerhouse

After getting a terrible attitude from the guy behind the counter(dennis i think) we finally got our pizza and not only were we dissapointed in the taste but there was a hair in it. We were so put off by the whole experiance that we just left.\r Do yourself a favor and save yourself some heartache do not go to Ciros. There are too many good pizza places around to waste you time on negative attitudes and low quality contaminated food!!\r \r ZERO STARS Cons: Hair in the Pizza more

The pizza is the only reason to go but worth having. If you go with the expectation of eating good pizza only, you will be okay. But it's more of a take out place than a sit down with great atmosphere. more

My 2 friends and I went to Ciro's on a Saturday night around 12:20am. They didn't have any plain cheese pizzas in the window. Fine. But when we asked when the next plain cheese pizza is going to be made, this threw the employees at Ciro's for a loop. You would've thought we asked them for a pizza they've never heard of before...like pizza with apples on top or something. The girls at the counter didn't know, and when we asked if they could make one for us, they asked the guys making the pizzas, who in turn just shook their heads. What? You can't make a plain cheese pizza? Finally we convinced them too (as the line behind us was growing longer), and when we said we wanted to order and pay for our slices, they said they couldn't do it until the pizza came out. At which point of course we would have to get back at the end of the line, wait in it, just to get up front and potentially have there be no plain cheese pizza left. At that point, I went to go grab my one friend who had ordered the specialty slices that were available in the window, and who was eating it in the seating area, and also to use the restroom. Well, they close the area off at 12:30am. So, I couldn't go back to sit with my friend, nor could I use the bathroom (even if I had pizza in my hand, it didn't matter. They just close off the seating area and restroom at 12:30). At which point we left and went to Hoboken pizza in PB, who gave us a fresh slice of plain cheese immediately, and I was able to use the restroom. I can't believe Ciro's is able to stay in business considering how clueless and rude the workers are. After reading the other reviews, it seems I am not the only one who has experienced this, and not only at the downtown location either! Too bad, because I liked the pizza last time I ate it. Now I'm boycotting and telling everyone else that I know to do the same. Pros: Pizza isn't bad, if you get what you want Cons: The people that work there more

Usually get Bronx Pizza in Hillcrest and should have done it this time. Ordered 2 pies, 1 cheese and 1 Sicilian with sausage. First the Cheese was cardboard, overcooked and cold with no sauce(and I don't like allot to begin with) cheese was burnt and again I say was thin cardboard. Sicilian was awful the wax paper they put on top pulled all the cheese off and the sausage was like rabbit poo, just like Dominoes. We never do this but we actually called and got our money back, threw it away and ordered Bronx. Cons: Many more

just recieved another pizza that should have been left in the oven another 5 minutes. The store on university is a mystery. Sometimes the best new york style pizza in town and sometimes an under cooked mess. For $20.00 bucks I'm glad to wait an extra ten minutes. Slow down and do it right, people will wait for quality. Pros: usually good Cons: Rush job more

My first experience was not very good. I called in the order and repeated it several times because the girl on the phone just didn't get it. I did a half pepperoni, meatball and half pineapple not too hard with a side of 10 wings. I went to pick it up and the girl at the front was on the phone with another customer rolling her eyes and being rude saying I don't know what you are tyring to order, big surprise. She finally acknowledged me and got my pizza. She said half pineapple and I said the other half was pepperoni meatball right. She said yep this is it. The total came to $27.50 which seemed a lot for a large pizza and 10 wings, so I asked for the reciept. Upon review of the reciept I was charged for full toppings of pepperoni and meatball and $2.00 delivery fee. Looking at the pizza it was not made right all pepperoni and meatball, half pineapple. So, I went back to the counter to get the pizza remade (girlfriend is vegetarian so had to get a new pizza). The girl never looked at me because she was busy being rude to the next customer on the phone. I went over to the manager making pizzas which was busy telling some guy, ""If you want a job here don't come in here drunk and being rude"" I guess an insight to the quality of workers. I ended up getting the pizza re made, went home and now noticed there was no dressing with the chicken wings as ordered. The pizza was not very good at all. Half the cheese on the pineapple side was missing, looks like they threw it into a box and the cheese went all to one side. I worked at a pizza shop in high school and college, and this was on my bottom list of pizza quality and service. I recommend going to bronx pizza or woodstocks. This was my first and last experiece with this pizza chain. Cons: Poor service, pizza quality, value more

Ciro's just opened up in Hillcrest. The service is sub-standard. I requested a glass of tap water with my meal. Unfortunately, the profit margin on the bottled water is too good to pass up. I was informed that they do not serve tap water. If I wanted a drink I?d have to purchase it. Thanks, I?ll take my business down the street to Bronx Pizza where the pizza is better and I am treat like a customer. Cons: Service more

I placed a simple phone order with a guy that should have played in ""Half-Baked."" After a long pause he took my name and told me 20 minutes. I walk all the way down there (7 blocks), arriving 30 minutes after I called, and waited for a few minutes before being acknowledged. When I finaly had his attention I said I was there to get my order. His response: ""Oh.... I'm sorry (he wasn't very believable), I didn't even start it yet.... I got busy."" I left my Coke on the counter, walked out, and took my business to Del Taco where they were happy to take my order AND make it in a timely manner (I was hungry!). more

I have gone to Ciro's twice and was dissapointed both times. Their counter service/register girl was slow, rude, and pretty much ignored us. One of the other people took our order and I guess they mostly sell slices because they couldn't understand the concept that we wanted to buy 2 whole pies. On a fairly slow night it took over 30 minutes to make our pizza. I think that is way too long for a mediocre product. Bronx Pizza in Hillcrest is much better. I lived in NY for 25 years...I know pizza. This place would never make it in NY. It's way to slow, rude, and the pizza is not that terrific. This one already has 2 strikes from me, I'm not willing to give it another chance! Pros: Convenient Cons: Bad service more

Best place to stop if for a slice at lunch or get a whole pie for dinner. Highly recommend the chicken cutlet parmesan specialty pizza, but ask for extra sauce. Pros: quality, service, location more

Ciro's pizzeria has by far the best slice of Pie in SD. The selection of pizza that they keep in the pizza case is awesome. They always offer varieties of pizza by the slice,my favorite is the Buffalo Chicken pizza with chucks of buffalo chicken and blue cheese crumbles. The fact that there open until 2:30am Thursday threw Saturday makes them a great late night snack. I just wish they had two registers so the line would move faster, but overall I'm a huge fan.....If you haven't stopped by for a slice check this place out on the corner of 6th ave and market street. Pros: Great variety Cons: Sometimes it is a wait more

Ciro's is with out a doubt Gaslamps best pizza! Fresh slices any time of the day and that doesn't even touch upon there delicious wraps. After going out for a long night out it's my favorite place to stop before i head home and you'll defiantly notice it's a lot of other peoples favorite spot to because the scene is happening at Ciros once the clubs and bars close down. I work downtown also and for a quick lunch stop Ciro's is my place! The staff always accomodates my requets and i can get a little demanding at time :). I would highly recommend this little pizzeria to any one!!! Pros: quick, delicious, fresh, friendly staff Cons: parking more

I don't know about this place.... it took them well over 40 minutes to hand over a BBQ chicken pizza, which costs $17 and was far from great. True, I ate it, but it was lke they put NO effort into making it taste good it at all-- all chewy and very basic sauce on there. But, who knows, maybe I just got the one kind of pizza that is not all that. I think the prices should def. be brought down a peg or two for the quality. more

It's good for a slice, might even be the best downtown, but if you order a whole pie for delivery, it arrives cold. it's just not quite the same as ordering a slice and eating it ont he street or on your way home. yum. more

Absolutely love this place! Best pizza downtown... made like the make it on the east coast! Very quick service, and cheap! We order from there ALL the time! They also deliver if you live close after 5:00PM, which is great when you don't want to go out. HUGE pizzas, definitely would recommend! Pros: Delicious! Quick service, Cheap Cons: Parking more

Having worked downtown . . . you have a large selection of Pizza places, especially for delivery. Late at night, when everyone is out of the office, one gets hungry, and lets face it . . . if you can't leave you don't really have a large selection of choices . . . from Broadway Pizza (which I am told use to be better) . . . to Dominos (which is your generic chain pizza) . . . and then there's Ciro's.\r \r Now I am not a fan of New York style pizza, prefering the hefty Chicago style, I am not going to rate the food to high . . . however, you cannot say that it is not some of the better quality pizza you can order late at night. The selection of toppings speak for themselves. Try it out if you like . . . you may not be blown away . . . but your stomach will not reject it, by any means. more
