Ameci Pizza Kitchen — Restaurant in Tustin

Food is great but went here last night 30 minutes before closing and the restaurant was just closed. We called 40 minutes before closing and they didn’t answer. Real bummer when we rushed there immediately after I got off work to try to get dinner and wasted just enough time that we couldn’t get pizza anywhere else in town since almost everything in Tustin also closes 9pm. So go well before 8:30 if you want them to actually be open. I understand people want to go home but when i’m also off work late it sucks they couldn’t at least stay open until they say they are.

Edit: The owners response is just a straight up lie and it’s kind of ridiculous to make me think my timeline was wrong. I was off by a little but we called Ameci last night at 8:33 which is 12 minutes before they say that hey closed with no answer. No “i’m sorry we’re closing early” which would have been totally understandable. Instead we drive over immediately after they did not answer the phone and arrive at MOST 5 minutes later since we live right around the corner. Owner says they only closed at 8:45 and changed their hours online which is just a straight up lie. Doors were closed, no sign, lights off, and no employees before 8:45. I know what closing looks like so if they “closed at 8:45” employees would’ve still been there for at least a few minutes after. Closing early due to technical difficulties is completely fine, and if the owner just apologized instead of insinuating that I’m wrong/lying (granted my timeline was off but only by a little and the owners timeline is just wrong) is unacceptable and unprofessional. I may have even edited my review had the owner/employees been even a little bit remorseful because I understand things happen. Anyways, we got pizza at Mongiello’s Pizza and Wigs in Santa Ana instead last night. From Ameci we would always order a pepperoni and jalapeño pizza and at Mongiello’s we ordered the Los Angeles Style Pizza which is their spicy pepperoni, candied bacon, and jalapeños and it was superior to Ameci’s anyways. Before the owners response I definitely would’ve come back but as someone who has worked in customer service my entire life I will definitely not tolerate being treated like this...

For starters, this place is located next to Style Today Tailoring and the reason is Google Maps directed me to the other side of the actual restaurant and it was way off. I called yesterday to order for pick-up. The Lady that took my order was friendly. Upon my arrival, I was greeted by a man and a woman. They both said, " Hi, welcome." I informed the Lady I was there to pick-up my order and she asked me for the name. The men went to the back and came back with my order. He was nice and asked me If I wanted separate containers for both items and I said, "No, thank you." The interior is quite homey, with enough seating and welcoming, especially with the friendly staff who made my experience a great one. My partner and I had the meat calzones. I truly appreciated that the staff put the tomato sauce on the side to avoid the calzones from getting soggy. My partner slathered the sauce into his calzone and stated that it was flavorful and good. He finished the entire calzone which is pretty big. The cost is worth the amount you receive, unlike other places that give you a tiny portion for everyone they charged. We plan to try other food items. I highly suggest this place and their customer service was...

Not sure why there arent MORE raving reviews of this place. The pizza is hands down the best for miles around. You know. The kind where the sauce tastes so flavorful and the cheese is nice and almost meaty in itself, not non-existent like other places where the sauce tastes like its moldy and the cheese tastes like ... yea.

Pepperoni was nice n crisp around the edges just like the crust. Not cardboard-like, not overbearing.

This is the pizza even skinny girls cant stop eating.

GET OVER HERE ASAP AND HAVE SOME OF...
