Buccaneer pizza

I read about Santa Ana’s new Buccaneer Pizza this week over at the OC Weekly and decided to try them out on Friday night.

I found a postcard they sent us but the coupon was expired.  So I called them and asked if they would still accept the expired coupon.  Of course they did!

The Buccaneer special was $19.95 for a large pizza with one topping, a Caesar salad, a free order of chicken wings and a 2 liter soda.  We added an order of their garlic cheese bread sticks.  We also paid for an extra topping on the pizza.

We ordered a pepperoni with black olive pizza.  The crust was as good as promised, as was the sauce.  But the olives floated on top and fell off.  Better to bury them in the cheese I think.  The pizza was however fantastic.  And it was big and fluffy with generous toppings.

The breadsticks were basically a small pizza cut into strips with no sauce.  They were very good too.

The salad had too much dressing.  It would have been better with the dressing on the side.  But it did come with lots of Parmesan cheese and tasty croutons.

The wings were good.  They were large and tasty with a chipotle type BBQ sauce.  We didn’t order the hot wings.  They came with celery, which was cool.
