Wicked West Pizza & BBQ

Love this restaurant. My favorite pizza, the «old lady». So many good toppings, all organic and a choice of whole wheat crust which makes me not feel too guilty. I also really enjoyed their birthday salad. The proportions are large but you don’t get a heavy feeling afterwards. Also, the staff is real friendly and helpful. This is now my favorite pizza restaurant

Good food and good fun! Looks like this location is closing down, but definitely a place you could go again.

I’ve been a fan of Wicked West for several years now, so was very excited to see that they have opened a second location in IKEA Court! Clean, fun, family-​friendly establishment with lots of yummy yet healthy options from which to choose, including whole-​wheat crusts and gluten-​free pizza… I’ve hosted many of my young sons’ birthday parties at Wicked, and found the experience to be very affordable and hassle-​free; sort of an «upscale» Chuck-​e-​Cheese, where you can actually feel good about what the kids are eating while they have a blast playing an assortment of games in the arcade (party packages even include their scrumptous gelato!). There are great deals for the adults, too — my favorite is half-​salads $ 2.99 on Mondays with sodas and bread, plus happy hour goes until 6:00 p.m. (for beer!). I love their salads, and I love a deal! :)

I love this place! They have the best pizza, whether you buy a whole pizza or by the slice. There are so many pizza options to choose from. They have a small selection of beer on tap but adequate enough for me. I like coming here for Sunday night football and having a slice of pizza with a couple glasses of beer. They also have arcade games for the littles if parents want to bring them along. There is a BBQ menu as well but I have yet to try it. The pizza is too good to pass up!

«Came here for lunch. The Cesar salad was OK, but the pizza wasn’t that good. The bottom of my pizza slice was hard and it needed more sauce. And the cheese had a weird taste to it. My experience was OK, but could have been better.»

Love Wicked West Pizza. Both locations (Next to Ikea too) are top notch family style restaurants that offer a premium pizza and many other types of food from Gourmet Salads, to BBQ, and many other yummy… Good…for you… tastes that everybody in your family would enjoy. For the kid in us all, don’t forget to bring gaming money. There are many, up to date, video games to play and earn tickets to select take home prizes.
Though I have enjoyed many pizzas with family, friends, Little League Teams over the years at Wicked West Pizza, my personal favorite pizza is «The Old Lady». Absolutely the best vegetarian slice of pizza that anyone… including meat lovers, would enjoy. I like mine on the Gluten Free Wheat Crust. Also taste great on the Gluten Free White Crust.
On top of everything that Wicked West Pizza has to offer, it starts with the wonderful owners and their family. keep in mind, when you decide to come to either location, you are supporting a true, family owned restaurant that not only cares for you but the entire community. Thank you Michelle, Ann and family for being a great friend to all West Sacrramentins. Your hospitality and generosity to our community is heavily noticed by all and greatly appreciated.
My Recommendation;
Whether your driving through from Reno… Tahoe…or just hanging out in town, Wicked West Pizza is the place to stop and fill your bellies while playing games and taking in the latest sporting contest on the many T.V.‘s throughout the restaurant. Set your G.P.S. to Wicked West Pizza. It’s a must! Stop… You won’t be disappointed.

Wow what a surprise… from the street it looks like some average run of the mill pizza joint with microwave meals. Once you get in there you notice right away the menu and options are just not that. The wings here are actually so good they run out usually an hour or two before closing. Get an order of wings just to try… cause if you don’t then jokes on you. Also they have custom made hot sauces behind the counter… ask for them… one of them has phenomenal taste and one brings the heat! Yes the hot one is worth letting your eyeballs sweat.
Great beer selection too! Many local beers and all different styles. The pizza slices are massive and dense!!! Unique pizza creations and their pesto pizza was wicked good. Even the crust is rolled like a long bread stick with cheese stuffed in the middle. No kid will be saying «I don’t like crust waaaaaa.» You wont be cryin’ me a river kid cause that crust is a cheese filled bread stick. Great place for kids… tons of video games to keep them busy.
Oh and the gelato is all homemade (many options)…the one with chunks of brownie in it… get outta town Wicked West!!! I could have pounded that whole tub down my throat is was so good!!!
When you leave the whole group will be screamin’… yahoooooo!!! Hot damn when we goin’ back!!!

Amazing food and great atmosphere! This place has the best pizza salad and more! I live in Elk Grove and drive to west sac for their amazing food! They have an endless amount of options and even games for my daughter! Staff is very friendly and welcoming! Please go try this place out you will love it!

Took the family there the other day and it was AWFUL! The service was poor & the food was gross my wife’s pulled pork sandwich had a huge slab of pure fat. I ordered the 3 meat combo not to mention they were out of tri-​tip & mashed potatoes at 3pm? Really! So I ended up getting pulled pork, pork ribs, & brisket which wasn’t horrible but was flavorless and the sauce they provided lacked flavor and was bitter. Lastly my son ordered a pizza which you figured would be a safe bet… WRONG it nasty considering it looked like they heated up a cheap frozen pizza. SAVE YOURSELVES… FOOD IS GROSS

was hesitance to try this place due to some of the poor reviews, but glad we gave it a shot. the food was pricey, but understandable; not only do they use local and organic produce, but also have meats that contain no gmo’s! Finally, a restaurant i cant take my kids to that have food with integrity.
we ordered the chicken wings, old lady, sixth degree, corn fritters, and mac and cheese. All were very delicious and everything is house made! we even had the option to pick whole wheat for both the noodles and pizza crust .
Overall we loved the food and will be coming back:

I’ve been to the Wicked West Pizza in IKEA court. We loved the pizza and the clean atmosphere. We decided to try the one on Jefferson as it’s closer to our home. Well that was a total waste of our time. The place is a joke. Completely disgusting. Tables were dirty, play room was also dirty and machines looked like they have never ever been wiped down, the carpet in the play room was disgusting. Token machine was out of order so you had to wait in line to get tokens. I counted 5 machines that were out of order… It was very disappointing to know you had a great experience at a different location and this one was a total dump. The pizza had NO flavor what so ever! Stay away from this dirty establishment.

Wonderful customer service! Very friendly! We ordered the fat free dark chocolate gelato while we waited for our pizza to go. We finished the single scoop and had to order more before we left because it was so amazing!

My first post on Unilocal.So happy its a good one. A last minute craving for pizza prompted me to check Unilocal for a new pizza spot. (New to me). Pizza, bbq, gelato and a arcade to keep the kids busy while I stuff my face. I ordered the whole wings, combo pizza, chicken and olive pizza, and the fried green beans. All was great! Except they messed up our pizza order. They happily and quickly made new slices (huge slices) to rectify the problem. Great customer service, so I will come back. I’m dying to try their smoked salmon and caper pizza. That’s all for now. Gotta get a scoop of freshly made Salted Caramel gelato. *smiles*

I’ve gone to Wicked West Pizza about 2 – 3 times. I come here because its my boyfriends nephews favorite pizza spot. This place reminds of of a mini chuckie cheese. You can play mini arcade games while you wait for your pizza, so its perfect if you have kids and they get a little antsy waiting for food. The actual pizza place is small enough so you can let your kids run around while you sit and watch them play arcade games or even take them to the «game area» while your number is called. The arcade games arent to bad, it averages between 1 – 4 tokens at the most, from deal to no deal, basketball (kids and adults), racing games, etc. The games spits out tickets so you can collect them for prizes, which and be fun for kids.
The pizza at Wicked West Pizza are fresh and tasty. The crust is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside so if you love crust this is the place for you. We got the artichoke, bacon, spinach pizza. It was tasty, the pizza is ready in about 15 min, and they bring it to your table right away so the pizza is literally fresh out of the oven. i would come back here again.

I prefer the BBQ over the pizza which is a little dry. The BBQ is quite good though!
Service has always been really good here and the place is always really clean and inviting.
A little on the pricey side for pizza, but better than Round Table down the street!

First time in Sacramento and we were looking for a nearby pizza place. Decided on this place since we never heard of it. Boy should we have just had round table.
The people working the front were very kind when we entered. We were deciding on what to eat looking at the menu, while looking a young lady told us about happy hour that was active. After looking at the menu for about 5 minutes when going to order the guy taking our order said the happy hour was over. No big deal guy was very rude (Davis) by the way but we ordered then found out the other cash register charged the other party in our group with happy hour.
Ok sorry for the long paragraph on the service, ready for the words about the pizza? Pizza was not good. Not even close. We all got by the slice since we noticed the prices were insanely high. One of the slices had a hair on a slice. Thanks to Davis for also making those pizzas (you can see who makes them). Charge for ranch that isn’t good at all. Crust came out too hard imo.
Stay away from this place, have kids working at this place and don’t seem to have a management system. Beware. Eat at own risk.

One thing better than corn meal fried green beans is dipping it in the house made dill sauce. Wicked West for everyone to enjoy! I always need to order The Combo and the fried green beans. Although I might not enjoy the games my brother at age 7 really enjoys it and probably wants to skip his pepperoni pizza to play them. Also if you want to be a little more healthy try the birthday salad, topped with grilled chicken and a tangy sauce is always a hit. If you are in the mood for something spicy I recommend asking for the Hargrove sauce!

Update to my review from 2011 — They have since added white crust as an option, which is of course very good, but I still opt for wheat. I have also since branched deeper into their BBQ menu items, and their smoked chicken wings are now my favorite wings I’ve ever had.
Be patient with them if you are calling in an order, I’ve had to restate my order 2 – 3 times per call, but they always get it right in the end.

UPDATE ⁹⁄₉ for the review below: I’m not sure why I’m not able to post an update for my review, but here goes. I am going to adjust my 2 star review to a 3.5 star, rounded up to a 4. Why? Because the owner of this business responded to my review immediately. Not only was she prompt, she was caring, and she was concerned and she thanked me for my advice. She explained that their pricing was as low as it could go, and I think she considered my comment about the crust getting larger and the pizza topping area getting smaller for the future. Perhaps I am a little grumpy about this place because of the wheat crust incident and also because of the latest order we placed with them. I was offered a gift card, which I will not accept, but I will re-​adjust my star count and hope that my suggestion was taken seriously. Like I said, this is a locally owned place and I appreciate that. And the owner has shown sincere professionalism. I might consider giving them another try, eventually.

It pains me to write this review as Wicked West does good things for our community… but having been here many, many times I feel the need to speak up.
I like that most things are homemade here, and I really appreciate that, especially given the lack of other choices in West Sacramento. The bbq-​type pizzas have tasty bbq and the restaurant is generally pretty clean. It’s wild at times with kids and tokens but that’s to be expected and the stars subtracted are not because of this.
Sadly, the prices here are VERY high for what you get when you opt for delivery. Not only are you charged a standard delivery fee, with a $ 25 minimum, your pizza is mostly crust and less and less topping. If I am paying a premium for pizza (which is essentially meat, cheese, dough and veggies, I expect to receive a fair slice of each. The better deal is to show up during happy hour and just order a slice which they make by hand at that time, and its’ about half the size of their large pizza that you will pay $ 25-​$ 35 for.
I’m also dissatisfied because we ordered a large pizza with a white crust, and what was delivered was a large pizza on a wheat crust. I have never spit out pizza, and I would never turn down fresh pizza, but this is the worst wheat crust I have ever tasted. And, we didn’t order it. When I called back the girl on the phone apologized but since we had waited over an hour for our delivery I opted to believe her when she told me the manager would call me back the next day and give me a gift card. No call. Would not return my calls. When I called and told the girls in the front they told me they couldn’t do the transaction. It makes me mad because we threw out the entire pizza. It was that bad. It wasn’t what I ordered and I just wanted a refund instead of a new pizza.
Our bill is always around $ 45 or so, and you know what? I’m done. No more of this place. Too expensive and in the end it’s just pizza, no need to try and be fancy about it.

This is a step up from Chucky Cheese. If you have a soccer team and looking for a end-​of-​season party, this is the perfect place. The food is as good or better than your std pizza joint (Round Table), they have bbq, salads and side items. For the parents, they have BEER and TVs. It’s like a Chucky Cheese/​Sports Bar and Grill.
I would not recommend this place except if you live in West Sac or have a soccer team.
