1st time here. I live in Perris,CA area. Trust me I will be coming back. The smell of the pizza dough wow 👌. My brother comes here every Friday. Because of him, they now have me as a customer. Pizza and salad. Go try it for yourself.

We went around 3 PM. on a Friday. We paid around $60. We ordered 2 of the largest pizzas. On one pizza, we ordered half cheese and half pepperoni and pineapple. On the other, We ordered Supreme. The pizza was delicious. I enjoyed it because they were very generous with the cheese, which was very stringy. It had great flavor, and the bread was thick, but not as thick as like a deep dish. Its a self-serve type of restaurant. All they bring out is the pizza to your table. You order your pizza at the counter and serve your own drinks, silverware, and peppers. The vibe was very quiet. I wish they had music or something playing. Its a decent sized restaurant that fits maybe 50 people. And it looks very traditional. Overall, I enjoyed the experience but mostly the pizza.

Great service, I bought a pepperoni pizza for my daughter and had to come back for more the next day, it was delicious. We also tried the spaghetti on the lunch menu, price was under $10 it came with spaghetti, garlic bread, a drink, and a side salad. I thought I was a great deal.

This was the best pizza I have had in over 14 years. The pepperoni...........omg 😋, and the cheese is like something you see on t.v. Like the pizza commercials, and you say that not real, no pizza 🍕 lools like that. Well, here it is, people. They are very polite and welcoming. This was my first time eating there, and Ive lived over here for over 8 years 😏 shame on me. Stop over there. Its a quaint little place, not fancy, just cozy. They are putting out some serious food and great personalities.

Yallll… this place is BOMB! The main reason why we came here was because of the awesome ratings so we def had to try it out. Especially with me being from out of state & me being a foodie to say the least 😝 We had a chicken with pineapple pizza (not pictured) and a regular cheese pizza. It was so good. The texture puffy and filling! Good pizza all around + there’s plenty of other Italian favorites to choose from if not in the mood for pizza

I have been coming here for years but haven’t been here since before the pandemic. Just visited again today and had to leave a review. If youre looking for an amazing pizza place that provides great pricing, fantastic food, and an atmosphere that makes you feel like youre visiting a relatives house, then look no further than this gem. In the midst of the current state of inflation, this pizza place has managed to maintain prices that wont break the bank, making it a great budget-friendly option for date night or family dinner. But its not just about the price! The food here is incredible, with a menu that has something for everyone. Whether youre a meat lover or prefer veggies on your pie, the toppings are always fresh, and the crust is the perfect balance of soft and crispy.The staff here makes you feel welcomed and appreciated. From the moment you walk in the door, youre treated like family, and thats not something that you can find just anywhere.Overall, I highly recommend this pizza place to anyone looking for a fun, affordable dining experience with amazing food, friendly staff, and a cozy atmosphere that feels just like home.

Ok, if youre looking for high cuisine, upper crust ambiance, or candle center pieces, this aint your place. BUT, if youre looking for a good pizza joint with lasagna, manicotti, and the like, this is it. They have solid fare served up by friendly staff, with quick service to get you in and out (if thats what youre looking for).

Bread is to doey! The toppings here are full of flavor and easily the best part of the pizza. My only issue is that the “bread” (dough) is off. Something about the bread is to chewy or not cooked Right. Hard to put my thumb on it.The vegetarian sandwich is pretty bomb. If you like cheese. Lol

Been going there for years and its always good. Today I got the lasagne on the lunch special. It came with a small salad and garlic bread for about $8.99. The lasagne arrived piping hot and (after it cooled) it was very tasty. Probably one of my favorites on the menu, first being the Italian sandwich (amazing fresh bread). I always look forward to DCaesaros and it always delivers. 👍I completely recommend this restaurant. Look for the picture of Jay Leno on the wall next to the condiments and soda machine. Its not a million years old either, about 8 years ago I heard he was in town for a local car show and wanted some Pizza.🍕

This place is always packed at lunchtime. The chicken salad is good. I asked for pepperoncinis on the side. I tried the mini Pepperoni and Jalapeno pizza. I was full after two slices. Good Pizza. With a friendly staff. I ordered the pastrami sandwich today. Looks like it can use a little more meat.

So disappointed and dissatisfied! I wanted to enjoy the pizza based on the pictures I seen and the pizza looked so good! I ordered the D’Caesaro special! Toppings fell off the pizza! Wasn’t properly cooked so the dough didn’t rise and was gummy and flat under the toppings looked like raw dough. It was really wet & oily. Money wasted even my 4 year old didn’t eat her slice. Cheese wasn’t melted it just wasn’t cooked right. Pizza still sitting on my island. Wasted $22!!! I was so upset at the money I wasted I didn’t take any pics of the liquid before it dried up and the doughy bread. But I will not be back. Turned me off.

Great Pizza 🍕Large dining area... and almost all the tables were being used. I did see lots of them eating different pasta plates. Second time going there and felt the pizza was even better than the first time.

Had some issues with this place a few years ago. We hadnt been since before the pandemic. We decided it had been long enough. Pizza was as amazing as it always has been. Bright, cheery and genuine staff. Glad we squared that away.

I really expected a much better pizza for having the highest reviews in Riverside. The crust and toppings were under cooked and the meat was under seasoned. I have no idea how this place is getting those reviews.

The staff was nice and friendly..felt like I was over priced for a large pizza and 3 things of hot wings and wanted a Marconi salad but got a plain salad $95.00 but food was delicious ..will check my order before I leave next time..

Our first try.. and we LOVED IT! We ordered a XL pepperoni pizza and their wings.. the lady that took our order was very nice. She ensured us that it was going to be delicious and it was. We will definitely be back there to try their Caesaros Special and maybe a pasta plate. They have our buisness... thank you for the great service and awesome food.

This pizza is one of the best Ive tasted in a while. One of the best small independent chain pizza restaurants ever. Good quality, good taste, just overall good. The taste can compete with other big name pizza restaurants. Must try.

2021-11-02 21:59:07

Of course they have good pizza, but you have to try their soups. The chicken with vegetables is my favorite. It has a rich broth with thick and crisp pieces of carrots, celery, and onions, and its fresh. And, I love their calzones which are completely off the menu and completely delicious!!! If you are old enough and have the inclination, have it with an Elysian beer.Cibo delizioso!!!!!

2022-02-07 02:32:43

Always great service, the people that work there always have a great attitude and always working hard. This is by far the best Pizza in all of Riverside Ive been coming here for over 18 years... I still drive 25 mins at least once a month just to get some great pizza... You wont be dissapointed

Review №28

2019-08-15 03:01:35

ONLY ORDER THE PIZZA. The pizza is fantastic!! However, the mozzarella sticks were COLD and we’re not crispy. The pizza greatly outweighed this discrepancy. Staff was not happy, but courteous. Dark atmosphere but the pizza makes it worth it.

My favorite pizza place in the world...I drive from fontana to eat good pizza!

2017-06-05 22:37:24

...who puts a birthday candle on your mini pizza..? OK... yeah...the girl said it was a rarity, but so thoughtful (for my 70th)... Ive been eating there since they opened (a long time ago) and can honestly say, Ive never had a complaint...ever... they are the most consistent restaurant I know of...That goes for the food, and the service.!!! Once you go there, youll be hooked... ;-) (the Monster sandwich, is to die for...as well as their Lasagna and the Manicotti !!

Meat ravioli - awesome. Meat lasagne - awesome. Meatball spaghetti - great. Wings - awesome. Pizza - awesome. Amber bock - duh...awesome. Staff - family oriented awesomeness.Sep 2023 - Ive been coming for years. These days, my lasagne and beer comes to just over $17, and Im happy to tip the change from my 20. I get the dinner version, and I have to say, it was a lunch-sized portion in the bowl. It usually fills from one end of the baking dish to the other, edge to edge of deliciousness. This time, there was half inch space around, and 2/3 filled end-to-end. There was extra cheese and sauce to make the dish look full. It was delicious and I luv this place, but yeah.

Just tried this place for the first time. They were lightning fast despite having posted that they were short staffed. We couldnt tell if they were. The food was great and affordable priced, and the staff amazing!! Would definitely recommend it if you are looking for fresh delicious pizza and pasta.

Dropped 2 star because you are not open on Monday anymore! Idk about sun because God is the lord that dont bug me. But Sunday and Monday is my only days off and I cant go there to eat on my day off anymore because of this! Its the only pizza I really care for.. not happy! All I want is to eat there! And cant!

Review №42

2022-12-14 22:47:45

Hands down, this place has the best pizza in Riverside. Their prices are fair and the quality of their product is really good. If you are taking your food home, I strongly recommend calling it in first cause they tend to get busy, especially on Friday nights.

2023-02-12 04:20:53

What the hell is this?! This Italian restaurant needs to step up its game! The lasagna and calzone were a complete disaster, with far too much ricotta cheese drowning out all the other flavors. Its a travesty, a downright insult to their legacy! I hope this is not basic, lazy cooking, and I expect better from one of my favorite establishments. Ive been coming here on and off for years, and I can tell you, this recent experience is a far cry from what Ive come to expect. I hope this is just a momentary lapse in quality.Disclosure: This review was created with chatGPT. My concerns were real, added with a dash of criticism horribly impersonating Gordan Ramsey. All while holding back punches because I love this place. There was too much ricotta for me.

The pizza is Delicious! Dining in is not something Ill do again. The entire restaurant needs a lot of upgrades or at least deep cleaning the carpet, new curtains and a coat of paint.Again, the best pizza in town and nice service!

I stopped in for Spaghetti and Meatballs. You order at counter and lovely waitress brings your order, or you can take TO GO. The meal was excellent and the family that runs this place is friendly. I brought home ravioli and this is great tasting food at a very reasonable price. Please try, you will not be disappointed.😃😀

Great tasting food! Seems like a popular place, lots of people there to pick up their orders. You are able to sit inside and enjoy your food as well. We ordered the All meat Large pizza(yumm), family size antipasto salad(so good)wings(spicy and great tasting) and mozzarella sticks(yummy as well). Came out to about $48. For a family of 4 (3 males and 1 female) we had leftovers. I would definitely recommend coming here!

First time ordering here. Ordered for takeout. We are a good 15-20 minutes away from this place. Totally! worth the drive! Even after we got home the food was still hot. The portions are huge, big enough to share for light eaters. The meatballs are delicious! Will definitely be going back!!

First time ordering from these guys... and it was an absolute delight. Greeted with a friendly and motivated welcome, clear communication and accommodating service, followed by a very inviting pizza pie. Visually pleasing, with the right amount of toppings (not overwhelming and certainly not lacking by any means).The taste... fresh, flavorful and done just right.Rumor has it, they have sandwiches that will make your tummy sing and bring tear to your eye at the same time (Ill have to try those next time).Highly recommend stopping by and patroning their establishment... you wont be disappointed.

This is the best pizza/sandwich/salad/whatever your heart desires place in riverside. Hands down my favorite pizza. Quality quantity and flavor wise. Been going since i was just a little baby.Yum, love this place! So glad it is family owned, great customer service. The lasagna is a Must! We have ordered every one of their pizzas and have never been disappointed.

Walked in around 3pm and sat down, place was empty. Waited 15 minutes, no server came. Two different sets of customers walked in and up to what looked like the kitchen window where food would be placed waiting for a server to pick it up. The customers walked right up and ordered food. I jumped up got behind the others. When it was my turn, I asked if I was supposed to order here. The gal taking orders nodded yes. Then I said weve been waiting 15 minutes and no one even looked at us. Itd be really nice customer service if you put up a big sign with ORDER HERE printed on it. The 20-yr old woman-child didnt even look at me but instead, smirked into her order pad.Ill never go back there again. If they were the last pizza restaurant on the planet, Id bemoan the loss of one of my favorite foods forever and drive right by, cursing every second that someone had the nerve to think that all they had to do was hang a sign that said pizza on the outside of a strip mall building.

Love this place! Pizza is great! Staff is wonderful... Prices are awesome! They offer a great family deal that comes with 1 large 2 topping pizza a family sized salad and 4 drinks! I always get that plus an extra med pepperoni pizza and a beer and never spend more than 40 bucks. Sodas are self serve so free refills... It is a dine-in pizza joint which I love because it allows you to eat your pizza fresh. Also has my favorite pizza topping... Cashews which not a lot of places have. All around great place!

Had dinner here for the first time. Not only was the service extremely attentive but the food was great. Both servers there tonight were really sweet. Much more than we imagined for the price. We had both marinara meatball pasta and pizza. Dinner Pasta comes with bread. All potions were healthy without being overwhelming. Will be back for sure.

This is by far my favorite pizza place. Cheesy deliciousness!!! Wings are okay and havent tried anything else, but the pizza is heavenly!!!

Review №82

2019-07-13 22:28:37

The pizza was outstanding! The toppings were plentiful and lots of cheese. They put enough sauce on the pizza so you can taste it and it was super good. The only thing that I didnt care for was the buffalo wings. The sauce felt watered down and super runny with little flavor. Get some of that house made chunky type sauce for the wings thatll be amazing! Otherwise Ill def eat here again!

I was looking for a good Family atmosphere Italian Restaurant and wow did find one. DCaesaro Pizza & Italian is the best pasta in Riverside. All of dishes arrived made to order, hot and fresh and full of savory flavors. The garlic bread was awesome! Our server was warm and friendly and knew the menu front to back. Pricing was outstanding and the overall atmosphere was very warm and inviting. Great place to take your Family to eat.

Oh how I miss this place! I lived in Riverside and ate there for 20+years! They have the best vegetarian grinders! All their dishes are great and so is the pizza. My go to was always a vegetarian grinder no tomatoes, add pickles and oil & vinegar. They always made it the way I liked it every time! I ate there so much, now that Ive moved to WA 6 years ago I bet they wonder where I went. If your lucky enough to live in the area or be in the area eat here! Still my favorite even though I only get to eat there once a year when I am back in CA for the holidays.

Let me first start by saying, the pepperoncinis are the absolute best! They taste as if they are freshly grown in the finest fields of Italy. Packed with juice, overflowing like the Niagara Falls!The color, almost as if painted by Picasso himself. The staff is amazing and friendly. The pizza, Id trade my first born child for. If I had 3 thumbs, Id give this place 3 thumbs up

Beyond excellent. A true diamond in the rough. This place has nice and courteous personnel. Their food is amazing in taste well worth the price because in my experience my family and I always have enough food for two or three meals each. All the food is also made in house fresh. Bread is perfect.

Best pizza in town hands down especially if your looking for that authentic Italian taste !!! Not only is the pizza good but they also serve up some delicious grinders my favorite is the monster sandwich never fails to hit the spot !!! Just like their chicken parm!! And lasagna I can go on for days about how good this place is but I suggest you hurry up and go try it for yourself today!

The food was good quality. Only nice thing to say about the place. Staff acts like you should know their routine though they had no signs posted saying to order at a window or to sit and wait for a server. You have to look online for a menu. Crowded beyond the capacity of seats. All around I didnt enjoy the meal...the ambiance and rude staff offset the decent food.

Great food, great service, a little on the wait time, but that was nothing compared to the outstanding quality, generosity, and honest to god staff over there! Very personalable and incredible customer service and they know everyone by name there, unbelieavable!!! Dont see that very often nowadays, highly recommend it!

Last night on way home from work I had a taste for some spaghetti after hearing someone talk about their Italian lunch. I Googled “Best Italian Near Me” and this place popped up with 4.8 stars out of five and only one dollar sign ($) meaning it wasn’t very expensive. Bright and cheerful young woman who took my order and I’m guessing the Owner? who bagged up my food to go were both kind and thankful for my business. $7.60 for a huge spaghetti dinner with salad and garlic bread. I ate the Garlic Bread on the way home and was full from eating the bread and salad. The pasta tasted delicious and I look forward to having that later today. I saw them deliver a Lasagna to a table and the portion is big and I will be ordering that on my next visit! I love that you can ask Google for the best “whatever” near me and discover all kinds of hidden treasures near your home. Dinner was delicious and I will be back...with friends!

Was the best pizza Ive had! Price reflected it. Paid $60+ for 4 large 10 pizzas, but they were loaded! Service was friendly. Wouldnt have expected this hole in the wall type of establishment to have such good food. Worth it, but Id rather carry our. Im not much for the dark atmosphere in the dining room.

I am usually skeptical about pizza places because you never know what you are going to get. The reviews looked good so I decided to try it. I was not disappointed. Even though I have had better, for being a local spot I will be a continued customer. They serve all pastas, sandwiches, and pizza. I gave it 4 stars because I have had better pizza but everything else was great.

If you want great tasting, freshly made, quality pizza at a great price, then you definitely need to try DCaesaros.

I am so happy that I finally found great pizza in California. I am from NY, and Dcaesaro pizza is actually (I cant believe I am writing this) better than NY pizza! The prices are reasonable and the staff is very friendly. I asked for extra cheese, and sausage, and wow did they put lots of cheese and sausage on the pizza. I definitely will be returning often for this great pizza! THANK YOU!!!!

I have been coming to this place since I was a teenager, I dont live in the area and after a day outdoors we decided to stop for pizza. Still delicious!

Ever since a dear friend introduced me to it a few years ago, I have been a loyal customer to DCaesaros...Mainly the Pizza I have had but I hear their other food is delicious also, other days time permitting I will try their other delectables...The owner is very nice and his staff provides excellent customer service. I have noticed that the local police and some fire departments eat there...A good sign for me... Even though, I am from the neighboring community...I love this place. Businesses, good food and clientele such as this makes me happy.

I’ve been to Decesarios many times. Love this place. The prices are great, the portions are huge, and the taste is top quality. We often get their spaghetti special and let me tell you, it can’t get any better then this. Everytime I go in to, either, place an order or pickup my order, they are always very kind and professional. Reading the reviews some are surprised that this is a “hole in the wall”. It may be just that, but the quality that comes out Decesarios is way better then any other chain restaurant, fine dining establishment that I’ve ever experienced. We will continue to come back, that’s for sure.

The pizza here is amazing. Takes about as long as getting it from chain-store pizza places, and they dont deluver, but the pizza is WAY better than youll get from any where else. From what Ive been told the pasta is amazing and once you taste their homemade sauce, youll never want to use the stuff from the can again.

DCaesaros has the best pizza in Riverside and their other food (lasagne, sandwiches, antipasto salad) is great also. You can dine in or carry out. They also serve beer and wine, as well as fountain sodas and teas. They have fantastic lunch specials that include the drink and their Wednesday spaghetti special is incredible, as it comes with a big portion of spaghetti, garlic bread, salad and a drink for around 8 bucks. You order at the window and then sit down. Theyll bring the food to your table. Great service to go along with the food.

Best lasagna Ive ever had. It taste like my grandmother was in the back making it. Even the garlic bread is amazing.

Great food and friendly staff. Pizza is way better than the chain restaurants.
