This is a perfect spot to grab a quick slice or small snack. I love their cheese pizza, which come in huge slices, and are warmed up upon ordering. This was my first time trying their garlic knots which were nice and buttery, not overwhelmingly garlicky but allowing you to still taste it. It's coated with some parmesan and comes with a side of marinara which is a necessity. They are soft and delicious. I have come here across different occasions and have had a good experience each time. There is a seating area in the back which is convenient, but this food is also great to enjoy on the beach as well. read more

Pretty mediocre pizza. With so many good food options in the area, I'm pretty sure this spot mostly caters to bar go-ers. They offer pizzas, subs, and more. I was surprised how pricey their pizzas are. The Chicken Parmigiana Pizza sounded unique, so we decided to try this one. It has fried breaded chicken breast, fresh basil, and mozzarella. There were small pieces of scattered chicken parmigiana across the pizza. They were very thin pieces, and it mostly tasted like end pieces with a lot of batter. Pretty dry too. There was also zero basil on the pizza. Thought it might be hidden under the cheese, but it wasn't there either. Pretty pricey for what you get. The pizza took a really long time to make considering there was only one other person waiting for their order. I think they forgot about us because it wasn't until some time after the other person waiting had left that they asked us if we were waiting for an order. Once we got our pizza, it was super hot. Beware, don't just bite into it right away like I did and burn yourself! There are some tables in the back where you can eat your pizza. They have a few TVs, but when we were there, they had the read aloud setting on...but it was on the movie selection screen, so it just kept saying the same one liner in a robotic voice over and over again. Pretty annoying. Several employees walked through the area but didn't change it or turn off the TVs, so I'm assuming they're just used to it? read more

Bro with the baseball hat said 10 mins for a slice of pepperoni. After not being greet for 20 mins. It was awkward standing there waiting to notice you. While the staff was all cackling and shit. Told us to wait after we waited for 15 mins. Came to take our order 5 mins later. And there were like only 2 parties of 3 (6people) to wait 45 mins for a pepperoni slice is GNARLY. Let's do better. At the very least acknowledge the customer as soon as possible. It makes a huge difference especially if you're going to ask them to wait for 30 mins. read more

We grabbed a quick bite from this Pizzeria while on Manhattan Beach. Skip the pizza, it wasn't really cooked through and we tossed it. The mozzarella sticks were pretty good! They do have fountain sodas which was much appreciated. Decently priced for a soda and appetizer & close enough to walk to the beach / pier to enjoy your food! read more

This place is good and decent, but do not expect a beautiful ambience or to be waited on. It's a hole in the wall type of spot, but it hits the spot and is a good place to grab good tasting pizza while on the beach. They have premade slices of pizza or you can custom make your own pizza. The workers are cool and it's mostly men. If you're close to the pier, give them a shot read more

Never again! What a complete waste of money, and experience. Took the wife and kids there expecting a cool vibe, fun 'california' experience, at what seemed like a cool, established, pizza joint. It was so much less than that. The attendant (seemed like a one-man thing), was very rude, impatient, kinda a jerk to us. The food was overpriced for what it was, the pizza was burnt and just a huge grease pit of food. Horrible experience. Don't go. So many other better experiences in the area. read more

Came with friends and asked for only three slices of pizzas and was told it was a 15min wait since he had to make a new pizza which is totally understandable so we waited, at 9:45 a new customer comes in and he had just took out the whole pizza that was for us and gave it to the new customer that came in. He asked if we were ready to pay then tells us he has to make a new pizza. i find it very rude and disrespectful because we waited and didn't mind waiting. read more

Offers freshly baked pizza and calzones as well as premade slices. you can customize toppings or grab and go from their pre made slices, could be cute for a sunset meal by the beach! has a classic nyc grunge diner vibe. the prices weren't bad but i wasn't wowed by the food, the calzone was a little under cooked. we came on a weekday at 7 and got it within 20 min. parking can be really hard in this area read more

Went here with a friend who was visiting from out of town and was looking for an affordable quick service restaurant nearby. We luckily found parking near the pier so we walked from there. Otherwise I'm sure it's a pain. In hindsight I would rather have gotten back in the car and driven somewhere else. I'm not sure that the one dollar sign is accurate based on the menu options, and I wouldn't eat here again for multiple reasons I'll try to detail below. The pizza was OK, but it definitely took forever even though they weren't that busy. Also wasn't a fan of the ambiance and it felt out of place among other eateries in this area. Another review said it seems like the place is ran by teenagers and that was the exact vibe I got! It's not giving family friendly or kid friendly or even a fun catch up meal with the girls. The narrow walkways and dining area are likely not accessible either. The service was nonexistent. We had to ask for multiple updates on our food, for utensils, literally everything . I just remember being annoyed the whole time we were there, lol. Staff just didn't seem to care to be honest. There was also so much trash left on our table (from the people before us) which they clearly made an effort to ignore. I'll add an extra star for the bathroom being better than I expected... I was honestly expecting the floor to be disgusting and it wasn't so congrats on that. read more

After an amazing day at he beach and hoped to get pizza for the little one----we were met with extremely rude girl worker stating that they were serving only appetizers and pulled noisy door closed --- Cooks were making pizzas ... when we inquired more about what about those pizzas being made, the rude girl said they were out of cheese. read more

I don't know what you feed your staff but they're amazing. Brain and David definitely turned our evening around, great people and very hard working! The service I got here was amazing. Food was 7/10! Great staff! Great food! read more

Classic not classy. Imagine an old school boardwalk pizza spot in the middle of Manhattan Beach. That's exactly what this is. The pizza is perfect. And so are the knots. The beer is okay. And that's okay. If you're looking for classy, walk a few blocks over to Slay Italian. If you just want a slice and a beer, come to this spot. It's been there for decades. And it'll be there decades more. Yes. The staff is composed of teens and early 20-year-olds. And yes, sometimes they make mistakes. But I'm certain you did the same in your first job. Give em' a break. read more

Waited a good ten mins to have our order taken one of the guys just stared at us while he made pizzas, we waited until I asked one of the other employees to take out order. Wait time was horrible, in addition the guy that made the pizza was overall rude and I was charged twice first for the wrong pizza then second for right pizza. And finally the place was unsanitary. read more

This is a longtime landmark of Manhattan Beach and my family and I have enjoyed quite a few great pizzas here. However, what is going on inside here? We went to grab some pizza this last Labor Day weekend - I couldn't even hear the employee asking me questions above the EDM music. The back tables are a mess, the leather is cracked and hard, its not that clean, the tables are never set; its more a storage area if anything. Its an uncomfortable place to be inside. This place used to be much more fun to sit and enjoy food in the restaurant. I'm disappointed with the environment and service. The pizza was ok. Like the ambience, its been better in the past. read more

Service is comically bad. Zero attempt at organization, kinda feels like if me and my buddies got fried and tried to run a kitchen. If you guys are reading this, do you have a system? That was the most "winging it" operation I've seen in years. I ordered a 14 inch pep and some mozzarella sticks and it took 50 minutes, despite my friends asking multiple times if the food was being made and despite the restaurant not being particularly busy. It was an actual sauna in there, I think the heat got to the staffs head, as it certainly did to mine. Nonetheless, the food was great. The pizza was delicious. The cheese was good, the mozzarella sticks were pretty good. Hope you guys figure it out, lot of potential here. read more

Absolutely miserable experience. Waited an HOUR for an insanely overpriced and disappointing pizza. throughout that hour, we kept asking for updates from the cashier, all for him to keep brushing us off and sometimes even ignoring us. Please do not come here. For the sake of your wallet and stomach. By far the worst pizza experience I ever had read more

Pizza with a view!!! And what a view it is!! Grabbed a quick slice while in the area. It was good, sauce was a little sweet but balanced out by the pepperoni. Next time I think we'll add some jalapeños as well. Overall - craving satisfied!! read more

We waited an hour for the worst pizza of my life. Was not packed staff was just lazy and inconsiderate. After 30 minutes of waiting they finally started making the pizza. When they finally gave it to us they put it down and didn't say anything even though we just waited an hour. We tried to talk to one of the staff but basically just said he works there and it's not his fault even though he was the one that was making the pizzas. I could make a better pizza blindfolded. For such a nice town you would think the local pizza would be good but that is not the case. I highly recommend eating anything else don't waste your time going here. Also the staff ALL look stoned. Biggest waste of 40 dollars. SMD read more

If I could give negative stars, I would. This place is an absolute joke. My husband went in for TWO simple slices of pepperoni with mushrooms. Should've been a 5-minute thing. Instead, he stood there for over 25 minutes watching people who came in after him leave with their food. Finally, he asks what's going on, and surprise -- they "forgot" to make it. The "solution"? Slap a handful of raw mushrooms straight out of the container onto the pizza and try to hand it over like that's acceptable. No gloves, after touching the register & everything else behind the counter. When he asked them to actually cook it, the slices came back with four sad little mushrooms dumped in the middle, barely even warmed up. Absolutely pathetic. When my husband -- calmly, mind you -- asked if it could be remade properly (an HOUR had already passed at this point), the long-haired slob behind the counter lost it. Called him a "dumbass," told him to "get the fuck out of my kitchen," and started throwing out other insults like some unhinged teenager. He literally tossed the food in the trash instead of fixing it, and of course, didn't even offer a refund. The worker looked FILTHTY, hair dangling everywhere, no gloves, touching register then touching food. Disgusting, incompetent, and completely unprofessional. This place is a dumpster fire, and anyone who values hygiene, service, or even just basic human decency should stay far, far away. It's dirty af just like the workers. read more

Very disappointing pizza. My family wanted pizza so I picked a large to go. When my family opened the pizza box; it was burnt pizza. This pizza was horrible! Don't eat pizza at the place. I spoke to the manager Oscar; he stated he can give me 10% off the next order. I would never order pizza from this place again. My fellow Yelpers stay away from this establishment. No good!! Order Dominos pizza; better than this place. read more

This place used to be a gem, but lately its been terrible. Not only is the pizza not good anymore, it appears to be ran by a group of teenagers as if it's the fucking hype house; there's random kids walking in and out the back who don't even look as if they work here. They also love to say slurs as if the customers don't have ears... Specifically the n-word. This is extremely disgusting and disappointing, especially having spent money here. Won't be buying from here again.. do better. read more

I went here to pick up a bite to eat as I was hanging out on the beach, and the sun was doing a number on me and I needed to eat some thing. I ordered my food from the cashier, asked a couple of questions. She was knowledgeable, I made my decision, and told her I was gonna go to the bathroom. Well, I'm sure the side salads are premade, so my order was up quickly. I heard the Cook yelling "small house"which is a small house salad (what I ordered)...and I opened the bathroom door and I said "in the bathroom I'll be right out"....I don't think he hear me because the music was so loud! But, to yell small house at least four times was ridiculous. If someone hasn't answer by the second call, just leave it for a bit! I was also surprised that the cashier didn't lean back and say she's in the bathroom she'll be right back because I told her I was going to the bathroom. Let's discuss why I think he couldn't hear me... he had the music playing so loud. He was blasting hip-hop with explicit lyrics! I listen to everything with explicit lyrics! But, as a business, during the day with parents and small children present, that should never happen. In fact, when I retrieved my salad and sat down in the back, there was a table across from me that had said that they didn't like the music that he was playing and they didn't like that there was so much cursing in the music. Perhaps the person that took my order was overwhelmed. There were a lot of people there was at least to 10 person deep line. To their defense there was a sign in the window saying that they needed help but the sign was so small that you have to get right up on it to actually see it. I would suggest to the manager, moving forward that they create a better sign that draws attention to it with a way to apply directly and a number to contact or a website to visit that they can receive applications on. I would have no explicit music playing during the day. I would have better communication between the cook, and the order taker. About the salad... It was OK. I mean I was hungry, so I ate it but I feel that it was missing like some toppings. I had like four or five olives, one artichoke and like three rings of pepperonchinis. However, the ingredients were fresh and the dressing was good. Just some improvements need to be made. I don't think I would go back though. read more

Joel is the man. Thanks for your great service. very quick and accommodating. 10/10 recommend

Antonio and co took care of us while our third tried to close the deal at Shelby's - like being back home in NYC.

Manhattan pizzaria is one of those spots where the food itself is alright and passes for a pizza spot, however I feel that the staff needs some work. When you walk in, the cashier girl looks like a miserable teenager who's parents forced her to get a summer job. The employees there are unprofessional. They were yelling at each other and It seems like it is run by teenagers. I got 2 cheese slices and a drink totaling up to $15. Got a spot in the back to sit and eat my pizza and noticed that the building is very worn out. The pipes and cables on the wall look like they're about to fall off and the building itself might collapse soon. Took a bite of my pizza and it was alright. I wouldn't call it a NY style pizza. The pizza looks like it but the cheese and the sauce doesn't compare to a good ny pizza. Then, a group of middle school kids arrived and when to the back to socialize and play around. They were throwing fries at each other. No wonder why this place is filthy!! Not to mention that they had Manhattan pizza shirts on. 1 star for the service but I'll add in a star for the pizza. Not bad for the pizza but not great. I think I would spend a little more next time I'm in the Manhattan beach area for better quality and better service. read more
