Crico's Pizza & Subs in Gulf Shores - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Every summer visit we always make sure to get our pizza from Crico's. Always fast and fresh. The pizza is delicious and my family loves it!

Me and the family decided to try something new and this pizza place did not disappoint. The pizza arrived extremely fast and was by far some of the best pizza we have had. Thank you for helping make our first night on vacation a great experience.

This place is excellent! If you are in the mood for pizza and you are in this area, make this your choice. The pizza was very excellent. Also the flying pig cheese sticks but the star of the show was the steak and cheese sub. This was probably the best steak sandwich I've ever had. I got mine with mayonnaise, jalapenos, lettuce, oil and vinegar and salt and pepper. It was just so good. I could have ate an entire 12 in by myself. The prices are also very reasonable compared to other pizza places in the area.

I always get it to go, but it’s the best pizza in Gulf Shores! Yum! We like their pepperoni with jalapeño and pineapple.

Do yourself a favor and go here. Great place! Best pizza and hot subs in the area. Very fresh and fast to come out. The steak sub was probably the best one I've had anywhere got it with jalapeños lettuce oil and vinegar and mayo, so killer..the meats pizza and flying pig sticks were outstanding. I will be visiting again before I leave town.

Possibly one of the best pizzas I've had. The Supreme pizza was piled high with fresh ingredients. The crust was just crispy enough. The cricostix was so yummy!!! We dipped them in the giant cup of ranch! If you love ranch, you will be happy. Delivery was fast and friendly to our condo.

We arrived here later on Fri evening, and ordered delivery from our favorite Gulf Shores pizza place. Best pizza here. Had family in from out of town, and the order arrived around 8pm. Our sub sandwich didn't make it. I called, but they had closed. So, called the next AM, and they prepared us a sub for pickup. I had paid in cash. First time ordering the Italian sub, and it was superb. They were so nice and accommodating. Thank you Crico's, you run a first class restaurant!

We stopped by for lunch- it wasn't too busy, we were helped immediately, and the pizza was out of this world. Speciality pizzas were reasonably priced at $20 for a large. Will definitely visit this spot again!

Pizza was fantastic. I had the meat lovers and it was a very good pie. Daughter and wife split a pepperoni, mushrooms and jalapeños and they loved it. Made to order, great topping selection. Wings were good as well. If you're looking for good pizza give this place a try!

I've never dined in before but have called in a to-go order MANY times. Pizzas are the best in town, service always friendly- even when I know they're slammed. Never any issues woth ordering except parking/traffic in the area can get hectic. Love to support this business.

Best pizza in Gulf Shores by a wide margin. If you're tired of the tourist trap seafood restaurants, this place has real food.

Pretty pricey Order a 10"pizza with 3 toping and a small drink $20.00

Our favorite pizza in the area. We try to get Cricos pizza every other week.

Good quick pizza, get menu go to counter order and wait for them to bring out to you

Great pizza. Good pricing staff was very nice.

pizza & cheese stix were good. the pizza sauce tasted like it was watered down, definitely could use some more flavor. Felt like we were expecting more of a robust flavor seeing how the pizza looked but still tasted good and everyone was nice.

Ordered a supreme pizza. Not so friendly cashier who was trying to rush us through the line, took our order up front and we seated ourselves. Waited a long time for our pizza. My wife took a few nibbles. My son ate some breadsticks. The pizza looked hardy, and delicious. But who ever cut the pizza needs to go back to school. The pizza was soggy and fell apart very easily. The pizza did taste good but the soggyness and it falling apart, ruined the meal. Over $60 down the drain. Better luck next time I guess. Prolly won't be back.

The cheese pizza was heinous. The Supreme was ok. The bread sticks and Crico sticks were pretty good. The delivery gal was awesome.

This is a fantastic spot for fast, great-tasting food at a reasonable price. We had 5 large pizzas, 2 of the cricostix & 2 dessert pizzas, and all of them were ready in 25 minutes. The pizza is really good, but the dessert pizzas are the best hidden secret - go for the apple!

This was really some of the best pizza we have eaten. We ordered and picked up the pizza on our last night of vacation. The pizza was amazing, not greasy and just the right amount of sauce. We packed the leftovers and we returned home it was just as good as the first day. We all gave it 10/10.

We were at the beach and got hungry. Cricos had great reviews so we gave them a try. They delivered it to the beach for us and she couldn’t have been nicer. She communicated with us and got it right to us. We got the Italian subs and they were excellent!!! The meats and cheeses they used were delicious. They added olives too. Love it!! Thank you for a wonderful meal right at the beach🏖️ You made our day!!

Killer Meat Pizza. Even the cheese pizza is to die for!!

Some of the best pizza/cheese bread we’ve ever had! My husband and I got a medium pb&j and the rastastix and we were not disappointed!! They also have decent ranch, which was a plus!

Friendly service, superior pizza, fresh salad!

The staff is so sweet and they handled being incredibly busy with grace! It's a true moon and pop pizza place right in the heart of Gulf Shores. I recommend sitting outside and people watching! We got a couple of pepperoni pizzas, a specialty meat, and a large order of cheese bread. The cheese bread was sadly so disappointing! But the all meat and pepperoni pizzas were divine as far as the toppings go. Unfortunately the crust is lacking in my opinion. It's thin and flavorless. Overall it was a hit and I will definitely be back!

Called in an order for carry out and the pizza was fantastic.

Great subs, a bit long of a wait, crowded seating inside.

Good pizza. Friendly staff. Short wait.

Very good pizza for take out. Ordered take out for big group. Plenty of food had much left over. Everyone enjoyed it. Will do it again.

We did pick up on our last night of vacation. BUY THIS PIZZA! I’m a pizza connoisseur! This is a ten. Gluten free was good! I personally SLAMMED half a large of pep, mush and banana peppers. SO good and the people there were busting their behinds to get the orders out, correctly the first time.

Great food pizza friendly people's good prices

It's one of the best pizza places we have ever eaten at highly recommended

Pizza is great and the delivery was excellent!

Pizza was great, sweet sauce, baked flavor. Eating inside is fine but it's better takeout

Great pizza. Busy as heck on July 4 and every employee was as nice and personable as if we were the only ones in there. Will def be back next summer.

We tried it all! Pizza, wings, bread sticks, and dessert pizza. 5 STARS

Small pizza place in Gulf Shores! A must for any local or visitor in town. Best pizza in town!

The staff at Cricos is amazing! we ordered for 30 people and they made sure we got everything we ordered: I really appreciate the care and concern

We ended up ordering twice during our week vacation. Food was great, especially the cricosticks! Delivery drivers were very friendly and great.

Small, local pizza joint - did not disappoint. Wish we’d stopped in sooner. Not too greasy, ton’s of flavor. Lots of cheese which is a must. Crust isn’t overdone. Just a chill place to go eat, nothing fancy which was perfect. Make sure and get there a little earlier - they close at 8, otherwise amazing!

This is some of the best pizza I’ve ever had. On top of that, some of the best customer service I’ve ever had. We ordered two large specialty pizzas, a medium pizza, and the crico stix. Every bit of it was delicious. They are not stingy with their toppings at all, they really load them on there! So if you’re looking at the price thinking it’s expensive… I promise you it’s not that bad considering the quality of this pizza. The lady who took our order on the phone was incredibly friendly, and the pizza came within 30 minutes. Everything about this place is awesome! This will definitely be one of our staples when we vacation here.

The food was delicious, the people were friendly, and the delivery was ahead of schedule. It was a great experience!

Amazing food! Super friendly staff.

We decided to stop and grab dinner for our crew bc of the reviews. It did not disappoint! Great pizza- sauce, toppings, cheese were perfect. Loved the salads and wings. Didn’t get a Sandwich- but will next time & Olivia was super friendly & helpful.

The pizza was absolutely delicious and the cricostix were the best cheese sticks i think i've ever had. We ordered ours to go and we were told it would be 30 minutes. The place was packed and they had us out the door in 25 mins. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for some good pizza with good service.

I’m conflicted over this review. The pizza was really good but the service is nonexistent. This was my first visit (here with family on vacation). Upon your arrival, you are directed to a ordering Q. Once you place your order and pay for in advance, you get the obligatory tip screen. After all that’s completed they let you know it’s going to be a 45 minute wait. They hand your Styrofoam cups and point to the fountain machine and tell you to have it. There are no waitresses working the floor whatsoever. After about 55 minutes somebody screamed out my order number and I put my hand up. They brought me my food to go boxes and we consumed it at the table along with paper plates and plastic utensils. It was a half a step up from an outdoor picnic Flies included. I ordered two large pizzas and two fountain drinks and an order of cheese bread in my bill was $60 before tip. I would only come here if I was going to do a carry out.

Amazing pizza. Great service and the quality is great. We've been doing Crico's for the last few years. The quality of pizza has remained solid. Prep times have been stable as well. There are a handful of tables to sit and eat, but I think this is mostly a "to go" place. They get high marks in my opinion.

First, I never type reviews for anything. We showed up late to this place a little before close. The workers there generously let us put in an order. I got a steak and cheese sub. I swear it was the best sandwich I’ve ever had in my life. Sadly, I don’t live in gulf shores. But, I would show up every week if I did. Come here, and get a sub. Friends had pizza and loved it too.

You with think with an Italian sounding name, they would have good pizza. I was wrong…cooked on a conveyer belt and not an oven. No different than domino’s.

Lived in the area several years back. This used to be a buffet but I assume due to covid they no longer are. Still great pizza! (I don't like pizza so that's saying something)

Best pizza in Gulf Shores, we called it in and it was ready in 20 minutes like advertised. Small place with some tables ok to eat in, we always just call it in and take it back to where we are staying. Pizza is really good,it is on our must eat list every time we are here. Back in town had to have Cricos, they never disappoint.

We were on vacation and looking for a late evening pizza. Found this place on Trip Advisor and it had very good reviews. The place was packed and they had a ton of to go orders. Pizza was excellent highly recommend.

This pizza is seriously some of the best pizza my family and I have had! It was such a good surprise to find it on our family beach trip. We got it more than once and have already stated we will be coming back next trip.

I decided to give this establishment a 5 star rating because of the atmosphere here. The pizzas aren't amazing New York style pizza. But come on. We aren't in New York. After asking 7 people in our party how they like the pizza. They all said it was good. I agree the pizza is awesome for the price. The restaurant is clean, including the bathrooms being Saturday afternoon. Thanks for the awesome service. Shout out to Sidney for the great service. Thanks again Grillin And Chillin With Mojo On YouTube

Some of the best gluten free pizza 🍕 😋

I’ve ate a lot of pizzas in my day and I have to say my large supreme from Cricos Pizza was the best ever! Renae Whitaker

Pizza was really good and cheaper than other non chain places around. Very small restaurant right near the center of everything.

Service was good and food was excellent

We got carry-out and the pizza was ready on time and it was delicious!

Super good pizza! Got this with all my girls on my bachelorette trip and we loved it!

This place was a pleasant surprise. The service was good and the food was great!! We ordered flying pig sticks. It was delicious! The crust was awesome!! I’ll definitely visit again on my next trip. Grilled subs looked good too. We was a saw people ordering salads and thought the salads were huge.

Me and my now husband ate at Crico’s when we came down for our 2-year dating anniversary, came back for our honeymoon and Crico’s was the FIRST thing we wanted to eat. We’ll probably get it 2 more times before we leave! Their portion sizes are very generous, and they don’t skimp on their AMAZING ranch and marinara compared to other big pizza franchises. We get their pepperoni pizza and cheese Cricostix — so simple but SO VERY DELICIOUS!!!

Although I know this was delivery I always have an open mind. The Kids loved the wings even though they were listed as hot. The Ham and Pineapple and Bacon pizza was great! I would prefer really thin crust but I understand in this humidity and the time for delivery it probably wouldn’t work. Great job to you are your team! I was a king grandpa tonight and it was because of the people’s hard work! Kelly- A Business Owner from New Mexico

Quick bite of pizza, kind of expensive, not a lot of seating. Garlic bread not great. Sauce is good, generous cheese.

Ordered large supreme pizza. It was okay… I didn’t really like the cheese on top of the toppings, but it was alright…. LOVED THE GARLIC STICKS LOVED THE CINNAMON STICKS ❤️❤️

Wife and grandson wanted pizza on our first stay in Gulf Shores so we chose this place based on the reviews. The pizza for us was just ok. Nothing great. Order at the counter and they call your name to pick up. Get your own drinks. Pizza was no better then Pizza Hut or Little Ceasars. Probably would not return if in the area again.

Very good pizza great place to sit here n chill n have a pizza

We got the Cricos Favorite. The pie was delivered on time and did not miss! The dough was cooked to perfection and the toppings were plentiful and the cheese was quality. This is our pizza spot going forward!

Pizza was very good and wings were delicious!! Salads were great. Delivery was fast and everything was hot when it arrived. Highly recommend!!

Best dang pizza and subs in Gulf Shores. My husband and I were so pleased. Had dinner delivered twice, so on time.

Great food, maybe some of the best pizza I have eaten. Easily top 10...people were friendly and has a family friendly environment.

THE BEST Gluten-free pizza I've ever had!! Homemade thin crust, great toppings and nice and hot!! Not crazy expensive either!! A MUST try!! Thanks for doing it right and not breaking the bank!

Pizza was delivered hot and fresh, with a very nice delivery driver not to mention EARLY!!! Great company!! Will definitely order again.

Quality pizza in Bama! Must hit.

My daughters loved the pizza! We even ate the bones. Trivia was a lot of fun too. If you want pizza at the beach UT is the place to go!

Great food, fast and friendly service. Pizza is Great and subs are Fantastic also!!

Their website shows a photo of a pizza buffet. There is no buffet as advertised. A wasted trip. We went to Rotolo's Pizzeria instead and had a great meal.

This place is, as the kids say “Bussin!”

Loaded with the toppings we ordered fed our family at the beach 2 times.

I got an Italian sub and my wife got a meatball sub, they were both really good and served with a smile. We both ate for under $20 😊

Well this is an average pizza but good for south Alabama. It is definitely not Roman style or NY style. It is a southern style pizza with the standard pancake like crust but better than average topping mix. Not big on authentic pizza cheese or sauce or oil. Or Italian spiced. Like a stepped up Mr Gattis. But they deliver and when not in Rome. There is much better her but they don’t deliver east of 59. But worth driving to we now realize. And Crico’s website is soooo uninformative. No menu. Oh well

Best pizza I’ve had in a while!

We travel 20,000 miles a year in a rv, and the subs are the best we’ve ever eaten (usually Jersey Mikes is our go-to). It’s all about the bread. Going back tonite

Best pizza in Gulf Shores area! We look forward to the pizza each time we come to the beach.

Stayed at Gulf Shores for the first time the last week of March. Wanted something different besides what we have here outside of St Louis MO in Warrenton MO. We called and placed an order to go, it was ready in 20 min. Service was quick, just went in and paid and left. We ordered a pepperoni, Supreme, and bread sticks. It was so good! Crust was perfect, lots of cheese. I asked for extra pepperoni and definitely got it. Grandkids loved it too, which is an added bonus for kids who prefer pizza over just about anything. Would definitely recommend trying.

Very good pizza. Good crust and good amount of toppings. We ordered from a different place earlier in the week that was a disappointment and we’re very pleased to have a good pizza here!

This pizza was probably the highlight of our family vacation to the Gulf Shores. My son really wanted pizza our first night here. So we tried this little hole in the wall on the main strip of town. It’s a pretty simple operation that touted itself as having been there doing pizza for 46 years now. So they should really have it figured out, right? You bet they do! Let’s start with the Rasta breadsticks. These things are the bomb! Pepperoni, pineapple and a light sprinkling of jalapeño. Not real spicy but sooo flavorful. Baked with cheese all the way to the edge and just nicely browned and the sprinkle of Parmesan on top. These things are a MUST TRY item! We also got two pizzas. The Crico’s Favorite and a Hawaiian. Both were excellent! Again, great crust. Not too thick. Not too thin. Crunchy, pliable and chewy all at once. Cheese reaching to outer edges similar to a Detroit Style crust. And great flavor! You will want to eat all your crust here!! Next, the sauce. Just the right amount. Not acidic. Not spicy. Totally flavorful. Serve your Rasta sticks with some sauce vs ranch! The cheese used was quality. Not oily. Perfectly melted and done just right so it almost carmalizes on top. Fair price for what you get. Limited seating for a crowd but doable. Good location. Keep up the excellent job here! You’ve really got something special going on that will keep people coming back for more!

WOW this is good pizza! Visited from our of town and are sad we don't have a place like this back home. Seriously as close as you can get to perfect for pizza.

After reading a post on FB about recommended pizza deliveries in Gulf Shores I decided to try out Crico’s, and I’m glad we did! Our large pep with half sausage was delivered sooner than they had said, the delivery guy was super nice and the pizza was fabulous! The crust was not super thin nor too thick, the toppings were ample and the sauce was good. $22.69 plus tip for a large was a good value too.

Staff there were not friendly, food was good.

Got take out but the food was hot and great. Much needed

Excellent pizza in every way!! Don't miss the Crico favorite!! Thanks so much!!

THIS RESTAURANT DOES NOT HAVE A BUFFET. The Google description is wrong.

We ordered meat pizza cheese pizza wings and chef salad and it was delicious I have found my go to pizza place in gulf shores and they delivered great experience

Good food! Friendly staff! The pizza crust is well done but not burnt, the cheese is perfect and the sauce is mild. It's a good bite of pizza. Also ordered the Italian sub and the beef and cheese sub. Both were prepared perfectly. You can really tell these guys know what they're doing! Worth the stop!

Best meatball sub on the island...or anywhere else! ❤️

Best pizza in Gulf Shores, Alabama

Delicious pizza to pick up while visiting Fort Morgan beach.

Great pizza and worth the drive from out on the peninsula. We definitely will be back when we return! Will try a sub next time as well. They looked great!!

It's definitely not my favorite. I was only able to eat most of 1 slice (supreme pizza) it wasn't because I was full. Cheese sticks were good but very greasy.
