I tried MOD Pizza for the first time on Monday, for my nephew's 10th birthday. It's one of his favorite places to eat, and I can see why. They have a wide variety of delicious and fresh toppings and a pretty good thin crust base (there's also a thicker crust if that's more your thing). Shabar, who I believe was the manager, was very patient with our big group, including kids, and all of our options. When he clocked out, he referred my sister to talk with the assistant manager (I believe his name was Ty or Todd) regarding a special they had going on for teachers & nurses that she didn't redeem on time. They were both very helpful and kind. Aside from the great service, the pizzas were delicious. I somewhat recreated a pizza that I fell in love with in Yosemite last month, and it totally hit the spot. I had the 11" thin crust with their signature red pizza sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, pepperoni, sausage, basil, crushed red pepper and then had it lightly drizzled with hot honey and pesto after baking. It was very delicious, and I cannot wait to have it again! One price regardless of how you top the pizza is a winner in my book. They also sell cake-like desserts which I will need to try next time I'm there. There were also cans of wine in the display: chardonnay, rosé and a red blend. I had the chardonnay and got a nice buzz off of it. The 12oz can comes out to 2-2.4 glasses of wine. Not too bad at $9. Since we were a party of 10, we hung out at the tables in the back area, adjacent to the bathrooms, and it was almost like having our own private space. Would definitely return! read more

MOD Pizza - 11" MOD Pizza with House Wine Chardonnay - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

From the time I walked in to the moment I was walking out the door the staff here were amazing!!! The young guy who made my mini was so approachable, pleasant and personable. I wish I would've gotten names bc the guy who grabbed my pizza out of the fire was personable also. The ambiance was quiet today, there was no line this evening and I walked straight receiving 5 star service. Thanks to this location for your kindness - everyone should leave a business feeling as good as I did when leaving Mod today. Kudos to y'all! read more

This is my go-to mod pizza in my area. I would say the customer service is pretty good. Pizza is also really good and freshly made. This location is also not typically packed, so i would recommend overall. read more

MOD Pizza - Cheesy Garlic Bread - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

I usually love MOD Pizza, but my experience today was completely derailed by the guy working the counter. If you're looking to get your pizza served with a side of pure, unadulterated attitude, look for the redhead dude rocking a Raiders snapback like it's 2012 with a beard. First off, trying to get his attention was like trying to get a text back from an ex. He was moving with the absolute urgency of a sloth on vacation. When he finally decided to acknowledge my existence, his customer service vibe was somewhere between "deeply inconvenienced" and "actively hostile." I asked if i had to pay extra for ranch and he snapped back if it's on the ticket i'll serve it to you. and he looked at me like I just insulted his entire family lineage. I get that working the line is stressful, but maybe leave the Raiders-level defense at home and just put the toppings on the dough. If you see the ginger giant in the Oakland hat holding the pizza cutter, just turn around and go anywhere else read more

Just had a SUPER experience here at Mod Pizza with the family. Long story short, we had a unique situation and Ty help is in a very pleasant way. I anticipated he was the manager because of his service and I was right! Don't lose this guy Mod Pizza! read more

After that incredulously egregious interaction with an employee whom I'm certain is no longer affiliated with MOD Pizza*, amends were made, and I no longer have to fear getting ridiculed by any of their employees for any reason. Following such a debacle in customer service, my visits to this MOD Pizza were much less frequent, and I started patronizing Rubio's Coastal Grill in Lakewood. The recent, sudden, and certainly unfortunate demise of the Mexican fast casual chain caused that location to permanently shutter sans proper farewell. In spite of the rather high staff turnover rate where it seems an employee working one year wouldn't be working the next, the newer employees here have been holding down the fort quite well to stave off closure, a fate that was recently met by MOD's other Long Beach location in Bixby Knolls. I came three times during the month of June, ordering a pizza each time. One was online and two were in person. The first pizza I ordered online was pretty flavorful, but the crust missed the mark in two aspects. The first was that some of the edges were burnt, and the second was that the underside had a pretty grainy texture akin to sandpaper. I suspect there were residues of other customers' pizzas that got stuck onto my pizza while they were being baked in the oven. Either that, or their equipment could have used a deep cleaning. On my second visit, I asked for the crust to be well done, which makes the crust nice and crispy, but also close to burnt, though not necessarily dangerously. My grievances about the crust dissipated, but unfortunately, so did the flavor on this second pizza. Looking back, I don't recall being asked if I wanted some extra seasoning, but I would not chalk it up to that reasoning (yes, the rhyme was intended lol). However, it was enough for me to forgo the well done part on the third pizza. Luckily, third time was a charm! This time, I added some extra seasoning and also some leafy greens, which were offered by the crew member who built my pizza. Well, if there isn't a rule against it, why not?! That pizza was really what I needed, especially since later that evening, I worked a 5-hour volunteer shift nearby. Not to mention the crew member in charge of the finishing touches even offered a second cup of sri-rancha on the side. My previous pizzas used drizzles on top, but I think having the sauce on the side is a better idea. They won't charge you for extra sauce, even ranch, so if you really need that extra sauce, ask for more! :) I came once more earlier this month, but a couple things missed the mark. I ordered online, and the employee initially forgot to hand me my drink, which easily could have happened were I in a rush. Also, they kind of skimped on the toppings, so I didn't get as much compared to before. However, they more than made up for with sri-rancha. I had checked sri-rancha on my online order and said in the special instructions two cups of sri-rancha on the side. I was expecting sri-rancha to be on the side only, but they also included it as a drizzle. Not what I intended, but more for me I guess! lol There's definitely more than enough to bump my rating from a 2 to a 3. In fact, I'd say it's closer to a 4 right now, but on review updates, I only upgrade by one star unless the original rating was a 1, which then I could upgrade by two stars. Also, the new general manager, Amanda, is pretty cool and does whatever she can to provide a great meal to the customer with a side of hospitality. With progress being progressive over the past two years, this is now my go to for BYO pizza. And that's even with Pieology being closer to me, but I have recently developed a grudge against Pieology that may never go away. Don't ask me why. * The way I put it made it sound like she got fired. I can't confirm that was the case. What I can confirm is that she was a really good employee back then, but simply had a brain fart during my visit and didn't hesitate to admit fault to such a heinous act. I know her name, but out of respect, would not want to name drop, especially since it happened over 2 years ago. Extensive training was done to ensure that something like that wouldn't ever happen to another customer. read more

MOD Pizza is so underrated. I'm honestly surprised it's not busier because it's one of the best and most consistent places around. I order from MOD all the time, mostly to go, and I usually do the build your own pizza and build your own salad. Every time the food is fresh, the portions are generous, and they never skimp. Especially with how expensive everything is right now, their prices are amazing for the quality and amount of food you get. The people who work there really make it all worthwhile. Everyone is hardworking, polite, and genuinely kind, and the customer service is always great. Their drinks are also really good. Overall, the value, quality, and service are top tier, and I keep coming back because they're consistently great. read more

First time MOD Pizza eater here and I had a good experience! I met up for a pre-class dinner with some friends before teaching nearby at LBCC. This is kind of like Chipotle but for pizza, as in, you order at the counter and select all of the toppings you want on your pizza (or salad) and then your order is ready a short while later. I love thicker crust pizza (hello mid-west/east coast) so I ordered the Mega Mod pizza and got a whole bunch of different, random toppings including (but probably not limited to) mozzarella cheese, mushrooms, pepperoni, pesto sauce, garlic, bacon, red peppers, black olives, and basil. The pizza ended up being really good - it honestly exceeded expectations. I also noticed that if you sign up for the MOD Pizza reward program, you can get one of the the No Name Cakes on your first visit. When I spotted Red Velvet No Name Cakes, I signed up before I got to the cash register!!! All in all, this was a good experience and I look forward to returning in the future. Ambiance could have used some TLCL - there's nothing worse than using a public restroom and realizing there's no toilet paper in the stall! read more

Woooooww!!! This was the most lovely experience. The workers were the sweetest angels on planet earth and I couldn't have asked for a better end to my night. The food was spectacular and I felt so welcomed. Juan and Brett are the GOATS of pizza and they made my horrible day much better. read more

The bearded male that helped us, acted and sounded like he didn't want to work, poor eye contact. The restaurant was not all busy.

I had placed an online order of two unlimited pizzas and both were missing multiple toppings each, the crust on both were burnt. It wasn't busy inside when we went to pick up and the employees were standing around talking with each other and never addressed us when we were standing at the mobile pickup counter. We even noticed that another customer had approached the employees and had asked to use the bathroom and was ignored multiple times. When we asked about our pizzas they never even looked at us and responded very abruptly. We have never had any issues at any other mod locations so it was disappointing that our experience went this way. :( read more

We ordered two pizza online and picked up. The order came out on time, fresh, and warm. I would give the service a great rating. The restaurant ambience is nice, with spacious sitting and large parking area. I was happy and satisfied with my food. The restaurant was cleaned with supplies well stocked including red pepper, cheese, and napkins. This is a build your own pizza place with unlimited topping for one fixed price. It came to my surprise that they have anchovies as one of the toppings and lord it was so delicious. It added a punch of umami in my pizza. The chicken paired it so well I finished 11 inches all by myself. I love the flat thin crust and the charred. Everything was flavorful and tasted fresh. The pizza came out exactly how I liked it even though I ordered it online. I am sure you can be even more precise with your choices if you ordered in pizza in the restaurant. I would definitely recommend if you crave some self-customizable pizza. read more

I took my son here for a first day of school meal reward. We normally go to pieology but wanted to give this place a try. The crust was crispy but that's the only good thing. They were very stingy with the toppings. There was barely any toppings! They only put some in the center and none on top and the topping was so little and scattered. It was not worth the money and didn't give much of a taste. I will not be returning and stick with our usual spot. read more

Stop here every time I'm flying in or out of Long Beach! Fast service, all the best and freshest toppings, great pizza! Restaurant is always clean and the staff are super friendly and helpful! I prefer to build my own combo but the kids love the cheese and pep! Yummy! read more

Custom pizza the way I want and kind service. What more could you ask for? This is part of my rotation

The fact that I can create my own size pizza was great. Thin crust pepperoni, sausage, pineapple easy marinara sauce was just perfect. I don't remember her name but her positivity at work and awesome customer service made a difference. The restaurant was very clean and spacious. read more

Amazing service thanks to Harley! Guy loves his job great customer service definitely felt welcomed!

Customer service was terrible, pizza was undercooked. One of the workers looked hungover. Do not recommend this place. Stay away!

A great, quick, inexpensive pizza that is made to your exact specifications. Feel free to ask for more of anything. Service was top notch and quick. Total price was $12 and change - about the same as a combo meal at most fast food places Highly recommended and I would definitely come back read more

I think this is a great place for everyone in the family to have something that they would like in a pizza, including little ones! They have a lot of options for toppings.

What a disappointment. We've had pizzas from this location before and enjoyed the experience and the tasty pizza. Today they were disorganized. The employee didn't wear an apron and her mask didn't cover her nose. Two employees were talking and no one was waiting on us. Then when one of the twgreeted us another employee by the oven said "No, they're mine." We left and will need to find a new location. read more

I started remote work from home in 2020 and ordered a lunch pie often before the pandemic. I am selective about my pizza. I love a NY style thin somewhat crispy pie crust and MOD nails that. Plus the staff is always pleasant, sharp and quick on their feet so my pie was still hot when I got back to the office. It was such a pleasure to return to MOD for my pizza pie today. The man who took my order and walked it thru til the end was the best. He remembered to top my pie with chopped basil. He called me by my name (odd name) correctly. Little things are so much appreciated by me these days. Thanks! ~ Drake. read more

Really enjoyed my gluten free dairy free pizza! The crust was a good texture and flavor and different from Blaze's gf crust (which is also good) which was nice for a change! Thank you! Looking forward to eating here again. read more

I ordered a pizza to go . The guys that made the pizza and rang me up were nice , the crust was perfectly cooked, everything else was mid. There were hardly any toppings, including cheese. It tasted like I was eating pizza crust and garlic only. If you want quick, this place is good, otherwise, I wouldn't recommend it. read more

Love love love Mod Pizza. They make a thin crust with topics of your choice right there while you wait. And usually I'll get a mini salad to eat while the pizza bakes in their oven fire. And when the pizza comes out, the crust is thin, crackle-crispy and delicious. Everything baked to perfection. Don't forget to try one of their "no name cakes" which are essentially Ding Dongs, but on FIRE. Addictive. Can I add that these folks working behind the counter are lovely people too? Went to another place where they build a custom pizza while you wait, also here in LBC, and they were just miserable... all of them in need of antidepressants. Imagine that sad, angry, passive aggressive energy being folded into what you eat. Yuck. They were the only gig in town before Mod. But then Mod came along where I'm guessing employees are treated better?? Anyway, they are also LGBT+ friendly and we support businesses that are friendly and open to the WHOLE community. read more

Shoutout Donte for the amazing customer service. Makes sure everything is correct and you're taken care of. 5 Stars for my man Donte

Located off Lakewood Bl in Long Beach within the Long Beach Exchange. Good amount of parking which is shared. This is a few minutes away from my work office so came here to pick up lunch. The concept is like Pieology and Blaze you choose your size and toppings and then wait. Overall it was good and pretty quick. Staff was great as well. read more

Horrible experience. We arrived at 6:35 pm. Didnt get a person to help till about 10 min later. We ordered and paid at 6:46. Tell me why our pizzas sat on the counter until 7:03 and us saying "where is our pizza" and 4 people who paid after us got theirs for them to put the pizzas in the stove???? It is now 7:07 and we still haven't gotten our pizza. "We have a lot of to go orders" is what the girl said. The people behind us plus a dozen walk ups got their food before us. We have a small child who needs to get to bed and they give us rude behaviors and rude comments, we can see them talking crap about us behind the counter. AND TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, we see one of the guys (the guy who made our pizza) lean down and spit on the floor. Disgusting. Purely disgusting. And there is no manager?? I beg to differ on that one, where is he/she??? Truly disgusted and disappointed in the behavior of this establishment. We got our Pizza at 7:15. And IT CAME WITH A SIDE OF ATTITUDE. read more

My granddaughter loves Mod pizza. She likes a cheese pizza. I enjoy picking out unlimited toppings. We both enjoy the thin crust

It felt like a pizza and beer type of night so wanted to try this place out. Very similar structure to pielogy, pizza press, and blaze. Custom made pizza with unlimited meats cheese veggie toppings. They are also offer salads, making a pizza salad, cheesy garlic bread, and chocolate dessert. I do like they have a mini pizza that is 6 inches and standard size pizza that is 10 or 11 inches along with premade pizzas but you can also add additional toppings to those free of charge. Pricing very reasonable from 7-11 (rounding up on the change) Order 1 mini, 1 standard size, 1 premade, and 2 orders of garlic cheesy bread that I heard is amazing. Definitely they don't skimp on toppings and their garlic cheesy bread was indeed tasty, however eat the cheesy bread quick because the bread did get tough and cheese did get pretty solid at room temperature / cold. The crust on the pizza is thin and very crispy. My only complaint is that the cheesy bread comes with a choice of sauce and both orders did not have the sauce in it even though the wrapper did indicate what type of sauce should be in it otherwise I give this place 4 stars. Online ordering is easy for pick up, curbside, delivery, and they have a app for rewards. Definitely will be back to try more creations and hope that my future cheesy garlic bread has the pesto sauce! :) read more

MOD Pizza - Go big or go home! 5 orders for 2 people - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

I used to like this place during the pandemic, but I do not know what kind of people were hired after that. The attitude is awful. I went last night around 930 pm. There was a young black guy with an awful attitude taking my order and a white young one kind of chubby manning the oven with a terrible attitude as well. If you do not like where you work find something else or become an influencer since that is an easier job. I am a customer and you are not volunteering your time. Unfortunately I did not get their names. read more

It would appear everything that was in their control they dropped the ball on. The customer service: I came in at 8:30, a solid hour and half before close, yet the staff seem to have an attitude or annoyed that they have to work. Better staffing choice would be recommended. Not to mention they were pretty clearly understaffed for "pie" day. They managed to not all ingredients available a full 2 hours before they close and then to top it off I get a pizza with a completely burnt and hard as a rock. Something needs to change at this location. read more

Accidentally ran into this place and so glad I did! Never been to or heard of MOD Pizza but I was starving so I took a risk, one well worth it! This location seems brand new. Super clean and modern. Love the vibe! The staff was crazy friendly! I'm huge on customer service so I noticed that first thing! Food is fresh, tons of options, made to order with no extra fees for additional toppings. WINNING! The food literally took less then 5 minutes from order to my mouth. The price was AMAZING also! We ordered two 11" pizzas, garlic cheese breadsticks, and two small drinks for only $30! Now for the best part, the food tastes AMAZING!! Omg so amazing! Thin crispy crust and delicious sauce were second to none! I can't even explain how good it is, you just have to try it! I will definitely be coming vack read more
