    Simple and delicious pizza!
    Rich B.

    On our visit to Newport we ordered pizza here twice for pick up. Super friendly service and ready to go in a flash! Small inside but definitely pizza parlor vibe for the seating area! We were pleasantly surprised by the size and price of their pizzas. Very fairly priced considering it's on the beach! Obviously we liked it as we came here twice in a few days! Order from here and stop worrying!

    After fishing with my kids we wandered around for the right vibe and food and found it at 22nd Street Pizza. Excellent pizza for me and one of my twins. And then excellent wings for the other twin and me as well. I also appreciated the Hazy IPA on tap. Super nice guy at the counter and just all around excellent vibe and food. We will be back!

    I first tried this spot last year and I've been coming ever since. I became a regular pretty much, when I visit the beach I have to order something lol the food is very very good you can taste the freshness. I can say the same about the service as well the employees treat customers with kindness also very welcoming. What I really like as well personally is the ambience and how small the place is lol it's a nice vibe especially at night. Will never stop coming here.

    One of the worst pizza slices on record.

    ** This review is strictly for the pizza by the slice ** First off, I have 200+ Yelp reviews and this is only the second 2-star review I've written. I recognize the impact that negative reviews have on small businesses, but I felt this review was justified. My son finished surfing at Blackies and he wanted pizza. 22nd Street Pizza had excellent Yelp reviews and was a one-minute walk from our car. It was beautifully lit and full of patrons happily dining and enjoying their dinners. I saw a clear countertop display with pizza by the slice and I felt the tingles of a 5-star review in the making. My son ordered a slice of cheese and a slice of pepperoni. I paid the $7.14 (very reasonable!) and I saw two depressing slices boxed and handed to us. Was the pizza going to get a little love in the oven? I guess not. Maybe, despite its lackluster appearance, it was fresh out of the oven?? Nope! The pizza was cold and less appetizing than a slice of pizza at a dodgy gas station mart or school cafeteria. Both slices were marred with large dough bubbles that had no cheese nor sauce. While the first third of the slice was mediocre, it was edible. The rest was literally (not figuratively!) inedible -- so hard you couldn't break it with your teeth! Desiccated and inflexible, unyielding to human teeth. It was so bad, I was tempted to walk back and ask for a refund -- something I've never done in my life. Thankfully, my son was in a post-surf bliss and in no mood for drama and he rapidly diffused the situation. He took two bites out of each slice, laughed hysterically at the worst pizza he had ever eaten, and posed for some photos before trashing the rest. We finished the evening with donuts (Seaside Donuts) and ice cream (Handel's), both which he rated 5-stars.

    Last 2 pieces of Mary's Margherita didn't last long! 22nd street is the best!

    Went to New Port beach and was craving pizza! This is my second time here and it did not disappoint. We got our pizza within 20 minutes and had a wonderful meal and enjoyed our pizza on the beach. We would've ate inside but it's super busy and there was no more seating. I loved the ambiance of the pizza shop though as it felt so alive and energetic.

    The time walking in we found a table a little dirty however the gentleman was able to clean it up for us by the name of Christo. We ordered wings BBQ wings in 18-in large peso pizza in Italian chop family size with no garbanzo beans and three medium HI-C drinks Christo customer service was on point 4.5/5 Music 5/5 Cleanliness 3.8/5

    We had three slices of pepperoni pizza and loved that it was available by the slice, especially since we were hungry. They also offered other options like whole pizzas and calzones, plus beer. I liked the different combos available as well. The pizza was super delicious--well-seasoned and even better than expected. The customer service was great, and the prices were reasonable. Overall, it was a nice experience in a cute spot. I'd definitely come back!

I would just advise to not go on a holiday, for the demand of the crowd and limited staff may be why the quality in food dipped that evening. We were just here a month ago to celebrate a birthday, and I have just made a reservation for tomorrow night. Very much looking forward to it.

Great overall lunch made me very sleepy afterwards because it was so delicious and so filling. Would come again, five out of five stars.
