    Mushroom pizza
    Jill G.

    So glad I tried this gem. Small place with few counter seating. True Italian food. The owner was there & recommended the mushroom pizza. Great suggestion. No red sauce, it was delicious. We also got a slice of the pepperoni. It reminds me of Detroit style pizza with the caramelized crust. Fast friendly service. We took home the house made tiramisu to have with coffee. Omg! Probably the best I've had. Shareable size, but I wanted to lick the bottom.

    So if you're in HB. Don't forget to check out Zero Zero pizza... Great slices with great pricing. Great customer service and a relaxing vibe to the shop. Great seating inside and out. Brings memories back hanging out in HB. But if you're ever in the mode for a slice. Don't forget to check out Zero Zero Yelpers.... Thank you Zero!

    Pepperoni pizza and root beer

    Owner dished out our pizza by the slice. Totally Italian vibe here. Being from Chicago and so close to Detroit, I would say this pizza is what would happen if both cities pizza had a baby. Owner may debate you and tell you it is Roma Italian pizza but, let's just agree to disagree and say it Huntington Beach style pizza. Pizza was delicious and do not hesitate to stop here and get a slice if you are in Huntington Beach and craving pizza. We got cannoli and tiramisu to go. I strongly recommend this choice. Made coffee at home and devoured these desserts. They were in house made by the owner's Italian wife.

    Pretty good stuff. Feels like a hole in a wall.... Food were by the slice and or a whole one. The flavors were classics and some interesting ones. Service was quick and helpful. They pretty much steer you towards what you could get. A slice could be a little pricey but you get what you pay for. Had the pepperoni and they were crispy. Also the mushroom flavored one was pretty good. It tasted truffle y if you get what i mean. But yeah. Nice to get takeout then just eat it on the beach :)

    Ciao! First time here. Went to HB to spend time with family. My sister Elizabeth is more of a regular but they always talk about this place. After here I can understand the pizza is fantastic - it's light and refreshing and the sauce they use is just right. My only suggestion is this get rid of the pineapple on pizza I know it's catering to us Americans but I would suggest offering tuna, red onions and capers, mozzarella as an offering instead. I suggested to the owner (woman) handling the register but didn't tell her about getting rid of the pineapple on pizza. Anyways I will definitely stop by to try out more of there offerings I noticed they sell pints of gelato and some desserts. Hopefully some espresso too! But yes you cannot go wrong here!!

    "Garage parking" could mean private parking. Doesn't say lack restrooms outright. Yelp asking if they've restrooms; even Yelp doesn't know.

    My review is based on my experience + perspective during my visit (regardless of prior notices). The star rating I give reflects the perceived pros vs cons, influencing my opinion of the business and my likelihood of returning to the business while weighing against the pro:con (like:nonlike) ratios of the business' competitors. - No parking lot. Parking around downtown HB, or anywhere dt for that matter, is hectic wild card. I heard there's validated parking in a nearby structure. I had to pay about $2-3 worth of quarters for 1-2hr street parking. - This place didn't have potable water. - And no restrooms. Wherever you're coming from, make sure you go before you go~ - Limited seating. + But nice they have both indoor + outdoor seating. + Yummy calzone. Various revitalizing meats inside. - But lots of cheese and bread. Not my cup of tea. + One communal can of pepper flakes, hand sanitizer, and napkins readily available. + Abundant interior decor. + Casual ambience. + Nice staff. Quick service. + Tip: I ordered ahead on Seamless, some $7 promo code auto-applied for me. I had: $17.99 Hangover Calzone + tax - $7.20 promo = $12.63 yippee! Elaborating why I gave more than 2 stars: + Despite not completely enjoying the food, I certainly enjoyed the meat diversity (the calzone had pastrami, beef, salami). Yum! Elaborating why I didn't give 4+ stars: - Besides the calzone consisting of so much cheese and bread (I don't like that), it also lacks vegetables (leafy greens, mushrooms, etc.) I value a food for its ingredient diversity for both nutritional diversity and texture diversity. In this case, noting the lack of vitamins and fiber I'd get vs if I had a more well-rounded calzone. - There's tough competition in pizza. Various other pizzerias offer higher pro:con ratios as well as fewer total cons for me. Other notes: . I'm checking this business' Yelp page, particularly the "Amenities and More" section, and I don't see where it clearly says "do not have private parking". I see it says they have "Garage parking, Street parking". "Garage parking" can be interpreted as private parking. . The Yelp pg also doesn't clearly mention they don't have restrooms. Only one relevant mention: "no ADA-compliant restroom". That doesn't mean the business has no restrooms outright. . And no mention of potable water. - Though it wasn't my point during my initial writing of this review, seems there are surprises after all. . True, the business can't control city matters like meters or street policies. Nevertheless, I mention these details in my reviews not to count them directly against the business but to provide abundant information to readers because, like I said in the beginning, these details are still part of the overall experience at the business and influence my likelihood of returning to the business while comparing against the likes vs nonlikes experienced at the business' competitors. - Someone once told me they care especially about parking. Even if the food's good but the parking's a hassle, they don't bother. Even IF the business had -clearly- forewarned about its (controllable) dearths, to me that's no excuse from amelioration. Maybe someday they'll consider installing restrooms or fixing their soda machine to dispense water. Or -clearly- mentioning the existence and location of validated parking on their Yelp pg. Anything to improve future customer comfort. But for now, my review reflects Feb '26.

    DOPPIO ZERO , my favorite!!!
    Kristina K.

    Not only is this the best pizza in SoCal, but I think in general, it is one of the best I have had. I am beyond obsessed with the zero zero Doppio pizza of the truffle mushrooms and sausage. I could eat a whole pizza to myself. I love how one slice is really two, bc they cut a big size in half. I also love the veggie pizza, it's packed with thinly sliced veggies on top! Pizza is always fresh and depending on the time, they may have different options and some baking in the oven. The family is from Italy so you know it's legit and they use scissors to cut the pizza. Service is fast and friendly and it's the Italian owners who work there! The only sad thing is I'm not near this place 24/7. Some wall seating inside and more seating outside. If you don't go here while in Huntington Beach, you've missed out!!!!

    Zero Zero Pizzeria in Huntington Beach is hands down one of the best pizza spots around. The crust is absolute perfection -- light, airy, slightly charred, and full of flavor. You can tell they take pride in authentic ingredients and doing things the right way. Every bite tastes fresh and thoughtfully crafted. The atmosphere is fun and welcoming, whether you're grabbing a casual dinner with family or meeting friends. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. If you're in Huntington Beach and craving legit Roman -style pizza, Zero Zero is a must. We'll definitely be back! the Owner was super friendly & so appreciative

    PEPPERONI & SAUSAGE LG
    Erika T.

    This pizza here has always been phenomenal from the first bite until the last one. After a nice morning walk, we stopped by to grab a bite here. This is a small hole in the wall, that deserves the attention to be highlighted. I forget how generous their slices are! My daughter and I each got a slice and I promised myself I would only have half of it, but I lied to myself because this pizza is soo good I couldn't have only a few bites. They offer a variety of pizzas, the taste is so authentic and original, unmatched. I was a happy camper with the pepperoni sausage. I have to come back and try the rest although I stay loyal to the pepperoni kind. The young lady behind the counter was sweet and helped us out right away. They also offer a variety of dessert which I have yet to try.

    ZeroZero39 Pizzeria is a true Roman style slice shop and a great find in Huntington Beach. The pizza has that crispy, airy texture that makes Roman slices so good. Light yet satisfying with a great crunch and strong execution. You can taste the authenticity. The place is run by true Roman Italians, and it shows in the details. If you are looking for a proper Roman slice in Orange County, this is absolutely worth the stop.

    Gluten Free Mushroom and Sausage  To die for!

    Update: This is the best authentic homemade Italian Gluten Free pizza dough I have had yet. Always on the hunt since I have celiac disease. We met Carlotta and Francesco a few years ago and have been coming here since. About time for a review. They are an amazing family owned business with incredible hearts to share their fabulous recipes with us to enjoy. My husband and I have come to know them as regulars enjoying their fellowship as well and wonderful service. Their place is quaint & clean, & close to the beach which is fabulous for a date night. A couple of blocks away to watch the sunset is a gift to experience as a local. Best pizza in town... Come if you're a local or a tourist and you won't be disappointed!!

    Why is ZeroZero so bomb? This is our go to pizza place in downtown. Yes, there are others. Yes, they may be cheaper. But no, you will not have your soul left happy. All of their topping combos are bomb. You honestly can't go wrong.

    I can't believe I didn't eat here earlier in my life. Absolutely wonderful pizza from the softness to crunch ratio in the bread, to the fresh herbaceous tomato sauce, to the amount of toppings -- I loved everything about this pizza. It is not directly on main street but is tucked away on the side with a few bar seats in front. The kind lady who helped me was extremely knowledgeable about all the pizzas, what goes into it, and the process. It made the experience here 10x better. I ended up getting their special with sausage, onion, mozzarella and it was my absolute favorite. The quality of sauce really shined here. I also got their mortadella which honestly could pass more as a sandwich than a pizza. They had some drinks I hadn't seen before and the decor of being a family owned business made my eating experience here even more enjoyable. Would definitely come back.

    You can totally get slices. The counter when you walk in always has 8-10 different types of pizza available by the slice.

    Anyone know if this is open on Christmas Day?

    They are a family business and arent open on Christmas.

    Any gluten free or cauliflower crusts available?

    Gluten free pizzas are a 10 inch round, personal sized made to order, whatever toppings you'd like, normally takes like 10 minutes.

    We had hoped to have dinner at 6:30 PM last night as family from out of town would be driving home…read moretoday. Our timing was not good as the restaurant had experienced a rush of diners and it would be a 45 minutes wait until our party of 6 could be seated. We would wait knowing the food quality is good. We were joined outside by 2 other parties that also were repeat customers. Both parties of 6 and 5 were seated back to back so it was a little tight in terms of spacing between the tables. However, since the acquisition of another storefront, the restaurant is double in size we told our out-of-town family members whom we were introducing to our favorite local family Italian restaurant. Veronica was our server again. She was our server the last time we were here for my husband's birthday dinner. We were happy to see her. Veronica took our drink orders and gave us time to look at the menu. Daughter had strawberry puree with sparkling water and lemon. Veronica was up front in letting her know that it was from a can. Brother-in-law had a Philadelphia root beer--Hank's in a bottle. Niece ordered Calamari Fritti and Spaghetti Bolognese with gluten-free pasta. Brother-in-law went with Veronica's suggestion of the Insalata Mona Lisa small after finding out how large the salad would be. He also ordered the Margherita Pizza to share with his niece. Daughter upon hearing that the Salmon Limone was not dairy-free opted for the Spaghetti alla Checca with a salmon fillet. The rest of the family had the day's specials of Salmon Limone, Linguine Pesto with smoked salmon and asparagus, and Bistecca done medium rare with pan sauce. Everybody had had small lunches and so were really hungry. Bread was warm and balsamic vinegar olive oil combo in dipping saucers was soaked up by the sliced bread prompting a request for another basket of bread while we waited for our entrees. Calamari Fritti is niece's favorite appetizer and did not fail to please. Brother-in-law's salad looked good with greens, red beets, tomatoes, and candied walnuts. Margherita pizza was simple with mozzarella cheese, tomato slices, and fresh basil. Daughter was delighted with her salmon fillet. Other daughter enjoyed her linguine pesto, but it was so rich that she was only able to finish a quarter of her dish taking the rest home for another meal or two. She wasn't done with the sauce in her dish and let the assistant server wanting to clear dishes know that she wanted to enjoy the remaining sauce a bit longer . I enjoyed my salmon with lemon capers that cut into the richness of the creamy angel hair pasta. The cherry/grape tomatoes were fresh. Husband's Bistecca was a big boy's portion. He enjoyed it tremendously, but was only able to finish half of the 16 oz. steak. We passed on desserts this time, but my family remembered how on our 1st visit to the restaurant about 15+ years ago I ordered one of every dessert on the platter. They were all very good. My husband's favorite is the cannoli. I prefer the limoncello cake. Dinner here is always worth the wait and the food and service are excellent.

After our visit, we wanted to pick a nice place to eat dinner, and because my kiddo said she wanted pesto, I went to faithful Yelp to look for a new Italian spot to check out. I will admit that I was a bit hesitant to try Buon Gusto out at first, not being from or too familiar with the area, and then there was the wait, but I am so glad we held our spot in line for a table. We were sat in the line of view of those who are waiting to be seated. I thought this would make me uncomfortable at first, but I hardly noticed them. Our server John was super friendly and attentive, very personable. One of the owners that we talked to also was social with us when I asked him about his restaurant and the influence for the menu items. I did not get his name, but he let me know he has Greek and Italian roots, which makes sense seeing that there are a lot of Greek/Mediterranean items on the menu as well. I believe he said his Italian ancestry is from Sicily, which was nostalgic for me because Sicily was one of my favorite weekend trips back when I spent a summer in Italy. Anyway, on to the food. I ordered the Penne Marco Polo which came with a delicious cream sauce and served with shrimp, broccoli, mushrooms and artichokes mixed in. It was one of the best pastas I have ever had! My mom ordered the chicken piccata - it was good, but she did have a complaint. Her plate arrived drowned in the wine sauce. I do not think it was supposed to be that wet. My daughter ordered the kids fettuccini, and our server was able to modify it so that it would come with pesto instead of the alfredo or pomodoro sauce. My mom and I each enjoyed a glass of the sauvignon blanc with our meal; thank you for the wine rec, John! I would definitely return if meeting friends in the area.

A special thank you to Abraham, the owner, who went above and beyond to make sure my daughter Kamila could enjoy her meal. Since she is unable to chew food, he took the time and care to accommodate her needs without hesitation. His kindness, compassion, and attention to detail made us feel truly welcomed and cared for. Kamila enjoy her pasta it was just perfect!!! It's rare to find a restaurant where the owner is so personally invested in ensuring every guest has a wonderful experience. The food was outstanding, and the hospitality was even better. We will definitely be coming back and highly recommend Piccolo Stivale to anyone looking for great food and exceptional customer service!

    Food was great! Desets were ok. Service was great!!…read moreWe started off with cheesey garlic bread. Everyone loved it. Then we all had a fresh salad, everyone ate everything on their plates. Daughter's shared linguine and clams. They really enjoyed it. Waiter brought it out already in separate plates, which was nice. They are both usually picky eaters. One finished and the other almost finished their portion. Wife and son both ordered lasagna. They both really liked it. Wife said it was very fresh. The tomato sauce wasn't thick meaty, sloppy and overpowering, but light fresh and not too sweet. It was definitely a healthy portion of lasagna. Wifey ate over 1//2, and my son usually finishes his plates, but couldn't finish the lasagna. I had the seafood linguine. I can't eat tomatoes, so requested the sauce to be changed from tomato to the wine sauce. They were able to accommodate. Fresh pasta and seafood. I ate everything on the plate, and soaked up the sauce with the warm bread that was served upon request. Now the desserts. We had two of each of the canolis, and tiramisu. Wifey said one of them didn't taste freshly/ home made, but forgot which one. That was the only negative I have. However we did eat all of them, sooo.... Ambiance nice candle lit type atmosphere. It was night time and we ate outside, so it was perfect.

    We were looking around the area for a casual dinner and decided to get some Italian food after…read morestumbling upon Mama D's as an option. It looked like there were two locations, but we ended up at this one as it was on the way to the store. - PARKING - Street parking, but luckily there's tons of spaces up and down the street. - SERVICE/ENVIRONMENT - We came around 6:30pm on a Saturday and were told it would be a 45 minute wait. We had to go to the store anyways so we decided to go out and come back. The timing was about perfect and they sat us when we returned. Really welcoming environment - huge shout out to Jeremy who was our main server. He was warm and inviting, and honestly made the meal that much better. We let him know it was our first times and they ended up bringing out free cheese ravioli and pink sauce for us to try - this only solidified our picks but we were all so appreciative of the extra mile the staff went. It's not a huge restaurant, only about 10 tables that seat mainly 2-4 people. - FOOD - Meat/Spinach Ravioli: So happy they let us know we could mix and match the ravioli! I preferred the Meat Ravioli but was happy to have been able to try the Spinach as well. The marinara sauce that's served under the Ravioli is perfectly tart. Sausage and Chicken Capri: We swapped out the spaghetti for rigatoni to really soak up that pink sauce! Great option if you want a delicious sauce with some protein already included! They even gave us complimentary cookies at the end, and they noted that it usually satisfies the sweet tooth for customers - it did for us! - OVERALL - Great vibes, great food, great service!

    Went right at opening and was seated immediately. The restaurant has a nice smaller family…read morerestaurant feel. Quick and efficient service. Lasagna is delicious with their pink sauce. The tortellini was equally as delicious as the lasagna flavor wise but in my preference, it really needed a lot more alfredo sauce, as it was pretty dry. Meat filled ravioli is good but not as memorable as the other dishes, and the marinara sauce was just okay.

    Dining with Diane and my son and daughter-in-law, we began with Carciofo Alla Griglia, Mozzarella…read moreMarinara, and complimentary Garlic Bread, which was replenished once upon request, and without charge. The bread was light and addictive, as usual. And breaded batons of Mozzarella Marinara were superb with a mild Marinara Sauce draped over them. Only the artichokes were wanting, with little vegetative meat on the leaves. For me a piping hot bowl of Stracciatella, with egg yolk and spinach circling on top, was next, followed by a pretty good House Salad with Creamy Italian Dressing. And Sausage & Peppers nicely covered by a saucy Red Sauce, featuring small tubular hunks of mild sausage and bell peppers cooked al dente, nicely filled out my memorable repast. Others in my party very much liked their Lobster Ravioli with Alfredo Sauce, Beef Ravioli with Penne Pasta, and Veal Piccata with Bowtie Pasta. Service by Rachel C. was excellent. And we liked our table placement in a corner of the restaurant, which promoted private conversation. For me, Mangia Mangia remains the premier Italian restaurant in Huntington Beach. As it advertises, it truly serves authentic Italian cuisine.

    We've been coming here for 20+ years and went Saturday night looking to celebrate my…read moremother-in-law's birthday. The place was packed and we waited about 20 minutes for a table of 7 (5 adults and 2 kids). As the waitress took our order, she proceeded to ask each one of us soup/salad whether it came with our dish or not. Pay attention otherwise you may unknowingly be ordering a soup/salad thinking it is included with your meal to later find out it is not. The garlic bread which is complimentary was delicious and the calamari appetizer we ordered was good, better than most places, but those were unfortunately the highlights of the dinner for me personally. My brother-in-law had to send back his silverware and appetizer plate that was set out for him were really dirty. Mine were questionable but I just went with it. I ordered the Linguine Frutti Di Mare at the recommendation of the waitress. Once it arrived it had an extremely watery sauce and looked more like a Cioppino (seafood stew} then any type of pasta entree dish with a sauce. The flavors were okay at best, but I was shocked at how watery the sauce was. I even asked the waitress if it was supposed to be so watery to which she had no response. I don't know if they are watering down all the sauces to stretch ingredients or if they don't drain the water from the pasta before they mix them - either way it was way too watery. My 5-year-old son had spaghetti with marinara sauce that was extremely watery as well and he refused to eat it after a couple of bites. My son always eats spaghetti with red sauce everywhere we go so we were shocked to see that he wasn't going to. We asked the waitress if we could get something else since he didn't like it to which she stated she would have to check with management. She came back and said unfortunately we could not nor would they remove it from the bill, but she did say she could get us some Alfredo sauce that we could mix in to the spaghetti and red sauce pasta. My 8-year-old ordered Fettuccini Alfredo which had good flavors but was extremely watery as well. It was more of a scampi sauce (water/butter sauce} then anything remotely close to a creamy alfredo sauce. My wife and brother-in-law who also ordered pasta dishes agreed their sauces were extremely watery as well. Lastly, when the bill came, we were shocked to see a $6 fee for tiny little dish of Alfredo Sauce that the waitress went out of her way and offered to bring my 5-year-old son so he would eat his dish. She should have at least let us know there was a charge for it if it wasn't going to be free. I do not plan on going back and would much rather eat at Renato's in Westminster.
