| - This was our 1st time to an Oregano's restaurant. If you go at dinner time expect at least a 45 to 60 minute wait. However there is seating outside for the wait to get in and they call your name when the table is ready. We waited almost an hour on a Tuesday.
There are 3 different kinds of pizza crust, deep dish, pan and thin, I wanted to get the pan or deep dish, but the hubby always wants thin crust. And boy of boy, this thin crust is super thin, thinner than a tortilla, so being that way of course the toppings are few.
As for taste wise and portions it was very good, and large.
Now the best things here are the salads!! Superb!! We shared with friends 2 kinds, the Oregano's salad which had pine nuts, roasted red peppers, raisins, onions and more with an Italian dressing, Awesome, I couldn't stop eating it. The other salad was a funny name that I cannot remember, but it had grilled chicken, tortilla strips, corn, black beans and an awesome dressing, it was the bomb!
And last, you MUST get the warm cookie topped with Ice Cream, holy moly 2 of us shared this and I could have eaten 1 all to myself. We had the Macadamia Nut, totally out of this world, warm gooey and wonderful! I know Chocolate Chip is also a choice.
The service was great, the hostess kept you informed on how long you would be waiting and how many more were in front of you.
The server was one of the best, very on top of everything and very informative, (he was also really cute), he kept our drinks full and cleared our empty dishes right away, and then boxed up our leftovers for us.
I will go back the next time I am here in the valley for sure, but I will make my hubby try the pan crust pizza!
