    We tried this place on Mother's Day. They were on Resy and had availability last minute. We were sat down about 30 mins after our reservation but kinda understandable given Mother's Day although the hostess told us that they had a 90min limit. The servers weren't particularly happy except the Latina one. We had their spicy chorizo and pineapple pizza (4/5) peperoni with pineapple pizza (3/5) we also had the kale Caesar that came with a big dome of baked cheese. Looked great but was 3/5. Carrots were good and nicely presented (5/5), saffron miso pasta (2/5) flavorless for a dish with two spices in that name and ratatouille with side of chicken (2/5). You are here basically for the view.

    Kale Caesar salad

    Tried Skal Pizza with a group recently and had a really solid experience overall, with a few standout items. We ordered the regular cheese pizza, a butternut squash and sage pizza, a kale Caesar salad, and a pepperoni pizza with added sausage and mushrooms. My favorite was actually the pepperoni with added sausage and mushrooms--it had great flavor, really savory and well balanced, and the toppings just worked really well together without feeling too heavy. The table next to us asked what we ordered and I think that this combo would be a great addition to the menu! I also really enjoyed the regular cheese pizza. It was simple, but in a fresh, homemade way. The kale Caesar salad was another highlight for me. It felt fresh and well dressed, and it was a nice contrast to all the pizza. I'd definitely order it again. The butternut squash and sage pizza was the one I wasn't a big fan of. It was quite sweet, more than I expected, and I personally didn't love that.

    This pizza spot in Lido Village is very cute. It's right on the water, overlooking the harbor. It's mostly patio seating, and if it gets cold, they have heaters. The menu is small, but when the food is good you don't need to overcomplicate things. Parking is difficult. There is a lot that the restaurant will validate for you, but it's only 90 minutes. The lot fills up fast, but they do have valet. Kale caesar: The parmesan crisp over the top was fun to crack into - literally. I thought it was really good, but honestly, it was more fun with the crisp that you have to crack on top to get to the salad beneath. Spicy chicken sausage: This was the highlight of the meal. It's a white sauce pizza with mildly spicy chicken sausage. If you can't handle spice, don't worry, it's not very spicy. The tomatoes (which there could be much more of) tampers down the spice. But it's very tasty. If I were to come back, I would definitely order this pizza again.

    Cute spot for pizza and drinks with a view of Newport Harbor! They've got both indoor and outdoor seating, so you can bring your dog. Outdoor seating has patio heaters as well. Most pizzas are in the $20-ish range but if you add meat to it like I did, it can hit closer to $30. It was a little pricier than I would've liked, but the artichoke pizza with prosciutto did taste really good and the view is nice, so I'd still recommend the spot.

    The food was very good! Definitely not typical "Italian" food (pasta and pizza) but was very refreshing. Service was friendly. Food took a little while to come out. Cool comfy vibe next to the water with indoor and outdoor seating. It's probably not the best situated place in that complex of restaurants because it's on the far end next to a wall (compared to Malibu farm which is open on both sides). I loved the avocado pizza and saffron miso pasta. both were surprisingly very light and refreshing. The pineapple chorizo pizza was a bit heavy for my liking. Overall, this is a great date spot, well-priced and with an ideal ambiance.

    The pizza was decent. It wasn't the best. It was a little bit oily. We did a takeout so possibly that could be why it wasn't as hot and fresh as it probably would be if you were to sit down in the restaurant so I think we probably will try to give it another go and sit down in the restaurant I just feel sometimes takeout can be so iffy

    It was freezing outside so we requested an inside table. The place is tiny but they gave us their booth in the rear of the restaurant. It was roomy and we were very appreciative. To start, we got the kale caesar and the wedge salad along with the meatballs and fire-roasted zucchini - nothing disappointed! The big ole "bowl" of cheese on top of the kale salad was a crowd pleaser. For entrees, we ordered the pineapple and Spanish chorizo pizza, the tomato pizza with nduja added, the saffron and miso pasta with nduja added and the pepperoni pizza with spicy sausage added. The pizzas were all well made, reminiscent of Neapolitan style. The pasta was also super delicious. For dessert, we got the lemon tiramisu as well as the caramelized bananas. Both were good but the bananas were out of this world. Who knew the humble nanner can be elevated to heights such as this! Hubby definitely enjoyed it. Everyone was super pleasant and the food came out at a nice clip. Definitely a place to return to. Check it out!

    Saffron Miso Pasta Pepperoni Pizza Artichoke Pizza

    An amazing pizza spot that also has great pasta dishes. This is located in Lido and you're able to make RSVP through the website. There's limited tables for outdoor seating and a large community table with some bar seats indoors. With a RSVP, we still had to wait for a party outside to finish up, before being seated. I'm not sure if today was understaffed but we ordered the cucumber ginger lemonade and was told, one glass would taste different because it was made the day before? It was an odd thing to say after we already noticed one was regular lemonade and didn't have the same coloring as the other glass. Loved the pepperoni and spicy chicken sausage pizza. We decided to try the artichoke one. It got a bit tiring but was unique and still worth trying, if you share it with a couple of people. The star of the show is definitely the saffron miso pasta. Great portion size and filling.

    Extremely mediocre pizza. Came here with high hopes after a bunch of my Yelp friends sang high praises about it but was left feeling meh about it. Waited forrrevvverrrrr for one pizza and one pasta to arrive, and it definitely got much less busy after we sat down at 2PM, so it wasn't an issue of the kitchen being backed up. The food was definitely not worth the wait. The Saffron miso pasta was very oily with not much taste to it, and the Pineapple & spicy chorizo pizza was quite "wet" (not sure if it was because of oil or from the pineapple juice). Sitting by the docks and the boats was nice though. Won't be returning. Thanks for reading! ^-^

    Favorite pizza place in Newport by far. The drinks are amazing, great service always, and the vibe sitting next to the water is unmatched. I've been twice in two weeks if that says anything.

    Tonight was my 2nd visit to Skal pizza! Our server was amazing. Super sweet, kind, and helpful! I offered the cucumber mint lemonade and was a little disappointed by how sweet it was...I was hoping it would be a little more tart. But, I absolutely love the bottles the lemonades come in, with the cute green and white straw. It is such a fun vibe! The last time at Skal I had the butternut squash and basil pizza and that was amazing! This time, I went with the charred wedge salad and I was surprised by how small it was. I'm thinking it was a 1/4 of a head of lettuce. It had a lot more dill than I'd prefer, but it was still very tasty! My friend got the kale cesar and I'd recommend that for sure - especially because of the crispy Parmesan topping! I finished the meal off with the coffee tiramisu and it was just ok for me. It was more like a parfait with layers of crème and sponge cake. I sadly didn't taste much espresso or coffee. Despite a few missed opportunities as mentioned, I still really enjoy this location and they have a lot of really unique choices. I can't wait to come back and try a pasta next!

    My friend asked me to meet up at SKAL Pizza, and I'm glad I did , it turned out to be a lovely afternoon with delicious food and a fantastic view. We chose to sit outside, right by the water. The weather was perfect, and the fresh ocean breeze made the experience even more enjoyable. There were also some beautiful yachts nearby, adding to the relaxing coastal vibe. I ordered the Pineapple & Spanish Chorizo Pizza $23 to eat at the restaurant, and also got a Pepperoni Pizza $23 to go. Both pizzas were delicious , full of flavor and clearly made with quality ingredients. The crust was crispy, yet still had that nice chewy texture that makes a great pizza. The portions were a bit small for the price. Each pizza was just enough for one person, so $23 felt a little pricey. But considering the premium location in Newport Beach, the price makes sense Our server was very friendly and cheerful, which made the experience even better. One downside was the parking , it was quite difficult to find a spot.

    Housemade meatballs with crostini ($15)
    Brian F.

    Skäl Pizza is located at Lido Marina Village in Newport Beach and serves wood-fired pizzas. It's tucked away in the back facing the water with outdoor seating and some indoor counter space. There is a parking structure and the restaurant validates parking for up to an hour. We ordered the pepperoni pizza ($23), pineapple & spanish chorizo pizza ($23), and housemade meatballs with crostini ($15). The pepperoni was classic but we enjoyed the pineapple & spanish chorizo more. It was sweet from the green hot honey and pineapple, spicy from the jalapeño, and herbaceous from the micro cilantro. It was a unique combination of flavors I haven't had on a pizza. The meatballs were very flavorful and one of the better meatballs I've had. For drinks we ordered the passionfruit lemonade ($8) which was refreshing. Along with pizzas they also serve pasta, sandwiches, and salads. They also have happy hour during the weekday from 2pm to 5pm. It's a nice lunch or date spot with good views of the water in a chill environment.
