    LW combo pizza - small size
    Glenn L.

    After considering a few higher end pizza places, I went with LW Pizza for small LW combo to go. It was exactly what I was looking for - a relatively thin crust traditional pizza. I ordered the pizza in the store and it was ready in about 10 minutes. The crust was a bit crunchy and toppings all tasted fresh.

    Calzone
    Eileen A.

    Dined in on 02/21/25 I don't know how many times I can review one establishment but I will keep doing so for LW pizza! I ordered a calzone for the first time ever. Ordered pepperoni and Italian sausage. There are two sizes to choose from; small which is 10" and medium which is 12". It came in a pizza box with a side of marinara sauce. Not surprising, it was delicious. The dough was baked perfectly and the temperature of the food was perfect. Hot but not too hot that I couldn't immediately enjoy my pie. Their marinara sauce. I don't know what to say about it. It's just too good. I honestly don't know if they make their own or not but whatever the case may be, I need them to sell jars of it. Like, immediately. LW, you did it again. Please don't get tired of seeing me. lol

    As of 7/15/25: Latest lunch special price of $9 ($10 w/tax) from 11am-3pm   @ojbaylen

    This is a great spot for lunch! For $9 ($10 w/tax) you get a sub sandwich (I believe you can choose from 4 kinds) and choice of salad or a drink. I ordered the Italian sub and chose the salad. So worth it! I live less than 10 minutes away so next time I'll call my order in so it's ready for pick-up!

    Hands down my favorite pizza! I've been coming here for years. I keep coming back. The crust is crispy the toppings are always fresh. And the lady there is always amazing. I highly recommend trying it .

    My new favorite local pizza shop. Everyone there is so nice, and the pizza is absolutely amazing. With a lot of local places I'm glad I found you guys

    BBQ Wings
    Rudy M.

    This was just another pizza spot to try since moving to Long Beach. Theyre not that far from us, but on this particular try, we chose to have it delivered. I went through the SLICE app and got a deal on a two topping pizza. We got pepperoni and mushroom XL which was thin crust and perfect crunch at the end. I decided to try their BBQ wings and they were a bit small for my taste but they were good. The cheese bread was good and we scored by having pizza sauce in stock at our place. This spot is a perfect edition to our lineup of pizza joints to choose from.

    Beef pepperoni & pineapple

    Yum yum ! LW pizza is a bit out my way but whenever I'm craving a pepperoni pizza I come here ! This is one of the only locations in Long Beach that carries BEEF pepperoni ! The pizza is always super fresh & crisp when I get there ! The ladies in here are always super nice & always hook me up ! This pizza spot is located in a very small plaza along side businesses like ups & a donut shop , in the same plaza there's a bar & it can get pretty packed but I always find parking ! A must to check out for pizza lovers !

    Plastic wrapping of some kind found while biting into the pizza
    Patrick V.

    Me and my family have gone to this pizza place plenty of times before, and usually the food is pretty good for the price. The service is pretty good, nice people. The place is a bit dirty but I wasn't ever one to care for that sort of thing. The BBQ chicken pizza is my favorite, and recently I purchased said pizza and was eating it at home until I found this plastic wrapping of some kind mid-bite into my pizza. It's quite a hard piece of plastic, and it disgusts me that I found this in the inside of the pizza. Instantly ruined my appetite, and although this was a one time occurrence (to my knowledge), it's still incredibly shocking to me that this happened at all. All I say is be wary of this place, the quality is questionable.

    13 different kinds of specialty pizzas with 6 different sizes of pizza  ...wow!

That was very much appreciated. This is a fun casual spot in 2nd and PCH shopping center, so you get 90 minutes of parking free here. You order at the counter, and they bring you the food pretty quickly after. You can eat inside or outside, both are lovely options. You basically pick your pasta type and sauce, so it's kind of a create-your-own-dish. They also have weekly specials and a few other specialty dishes on the menu. I will say, the lasagna looks to be the dish to get. The person next to me ordered it and the dish was massive. Looked delicious! I got the pappardelle bolognese. Pappardelle is my favorite type of noodle, and they make a great pappardelle here! Perfectly toothy. The noodles themselves were 9/10. The bolognese didn't have the deepest flavor I've ever tried, but it was solid. I loved the beautiful plate that my pasta was served in. I would definitely come back here.

Service is exceptional as always, the gals working were truly so sweet. We'll be back soon, this is truly such a gem.

The sauce was rich and creamy and the uni on top was fresh and buttery. The meal also comes with complimentary bread and salad. The salad was light and refreshing which helped balance out the richness of the pasta. The bread was simple but great for dipping in olive oil and vinegar.

The restaurant was…read morefairly quiet at that hour, so I expected attentive service, unfortunately, that wasn't the case. I ordered the burger and fries. Visually, the burger was impressive and looked exactly like something you'd want to dig into. However, the salt level was overwhelming to the point where I genuinely could not finish it. What made matters worse was that our server was not attentive with refilling our waters, and when you're working through an extremely salty dish, hydration isn't optional. I left the meal feeling dehydrated and honestly a little frustrated. The bright spot of the visit was the Brussels sprouts, which were genuinely well done and showed some real kitchen care. If I were to return, I'd probably stick to the vegetable sides. For a restaurant with a 4 PM lull and minimal table traffic, there's no excuse for that level of inattentiveness. A simple water refill and a quick check in would have saved the experience. As it stands, the combination of an over salted entrée and absent service made for a tough sell on the value. If you're in the area craving a burger, you might want to save your money and head down the street to Louis Burger instead. Ellie's may shine in other areas; I've heard good things about the pasta, but this particular visit missed the mark.

Absolutely delicious We also ordered fried onion rings (which I did not try as I don't do onions) and fried zucchini sticks. The sticks were very good but I was thrilled with the dip as it had dill and I should have just asked for ranch. I'm told the onion rings were very good. They came with a honey mustard sauce dipper which went great with the zucchini sticks by the way. We saw some very good looking chicken wings being served to other tables and plan to try those next time. Parking in this area can be tough at times however it's worth the effort believe me.
