Where to Go for Pizza in Orange

It's been said that you can tell a lot about a town from looking at its pizza, and if that's true, then it's clear that Orange, California is very much a suburb with slight pretensions of being something more, as well as more poor people than it would care to admit.  Although some of the chains try, there's no place to go for true Chicago-style deep-dish, and it's hard to find anything resembling real Italian pizza outside of upscale Italian restaurants.  As far as the local selection goes, it basically comes down to two things: how thin you want your crust (and there isn't even a lot of variety in that category), and how much you're willing to pay.




That said, not all pizza is created equal, and some is definitely better than others, so to discover where the best and tastiest deals can be found, read on intrepid pizza-seeker!

The local place to go for cheap pizza.  There are two locations, which are more less the same.  The restaurants are small and don't have a lot of seating - their business is primarily directed at take-out and delivery and they're a popular place for college students to turn to for party fuel since they're relatively fast and inexpensive. They used to offer great combo deals, like two large, three topping pizzas plus drinks for sixteen dollars, but they've recently ended those promotions and now seem to be pushing deals that include salad, lasagna, chicken wings and more complete "meals," which are still good deals, but also more expensive.  The pizza, admittedly, is not the best, but they're sized well for the price you pay.
