But I've been in Florida a long time and have not had Pizza as good as Albas clearwater beach Anywhere else in this area , it takes just like the jersey shore pizza , crispy delicious and let the oil run down your elbows , l o l. read more

After reading the reviews, we decided to give it a try. The food did not disappoint. I opted for the baked ziti with meatballs and a small salad. The salad was plenty. The ziti was delicious. My husband chose the penne with vodka sauce which was even better. The staff were very friendly and accomodating. One of the reviews mentioned seating with an ocean view which does not exist. You can walk a little ways to the beach but bring a towel to sit on. The restaurant itself had a few tables under an awning. We may go back to try the pizza but will definitely get it to go. read more

The place was cute and small, only outdoor seating. Perfect to grab a slice or pie for lunch and head on back to the beach. Super close to beach access less than 100 feet from the beach. The outdoor sitting is great too, worked especially well for us since we had a small dog. The pizzas came out quick and sizzling, the sauce was on , supreme was delicious. I would say the only thing I'd add is for them to cook it extra crispy. The people working there were fast and very kind. We walked from Sandpearl through the beachside for this hidden gem. Quick, fairly priced and fresh. read more

Whoever made my pizza needs a raise. Best pizza in Florida. Crust was crunchy on the outside but soft in the inside. The place was nice too! 10/10! read more

We decided to give them a try based on their excellent reviews. We ordered a 16in cheese pizza with "beef pepperoni" meatballs, mushrooms, basil. The pizza was very good however for $3 a topping I feel the mushrooms & basil were lacking. They should definitely add more. The crust was crisp but soft inside. It had a slight coal oven taste. It was one of the best pizzas we have had in awhile. I'd give the pizza 4 stars but have to remove a star for hardly any basil or mushrooms. Maybe try cutting the basil to spread it more? Just a suggestion. Also, I usually order bacon on my pizza but theirs said "beef bacon" I was unsure of that. We took a chance with the pepperoni & it was great! Maybe I'll try "beef bacon" I'm still debating that. The salad that was $14.50... not even worth $5! The salad felt like robbery. Even the croutons, I haven't seen croutons that sad looking since the 80s. The Parmesan cheese was a tiny sprinkle of powdered cheese, not fresh grated parm. The dressing was so little it didn't even cover the lettuce. At least it was Romaine lettuce though. We ordered delivery so I'm not sure of the ambiance but, from the pictures it looks like it's just a tiny place on the beach. The service? The order was ready & delivered on time so zero complaints there either. If you're looking for good pizza, I'd recommend them. If you're looking for vegetables too... this isn't the place. You can get a better salad in a bag at Walmart for 1/4 of the price. read more

We went to Albas 3 nights in a row because the food was that delicious! First night- pizza. Amazing! 10/10. 2nd night-a well done pizza (as requested) fantastic! 20/10. 3rd night-calzone-Alfredo sauce was so delicious and it was huge! 10/10. We also ordered wings-they were delicious as well. And lastly, we ordered the garlic knots! So so good. What really was the icing on the cake was Eden. He was behind all that delicious food and was the kindest person ever. He recommended places for us to visit, and offered us free pop for being repeat customers. He also had some greater music playing while we waited! Would go again next time we take a trip to Clearwater! read more

The sauce had great flavor, crust was old school Neapolitan, fantastic. Our deliver was slow (spring break). So it wasn't super hot and still good pie read more

Delivery order to hotel close to roundabout. Missing requested plates/etc. Was cold. Was undercooked by a ways. If there is sauce, can't taste or see it. Ordered extra sauce in a cup. Didn't get it. Very soggy, and could not cut, and was hard to fold as everything just dumps out from the limp crust. Ordered extra cheese. Didn't get it. Disappointed as the reviews look great. read more

Great pizza! Im from Nj, and we know our pizza! Tasty, crispy and delicious. Best in Clearwater!

Yay!! Would come back:) It's dough straight from the fridge (not frozen pizza) and they spread it out and throw it in the air like in the movies. They make their own pizza sauce! It was so yum I didn't have to add any seasoning. I'm vegan and just ordered pizza without cheese and they were very kind about it. Straight up 100% Italian folk in there, lol! One guy who helped us was from California and he drove 3 days to be there! He was a good person and was genuine. Would come back! Pizza was crispy and baked to perfection. Not too crispy where it's burnt but not still too soft in the middle. They know what they're doing read more

Having been coming here for years now. As a local that lives on the island and has tried every pizza place... I can honestly say this my favorite. They use the right flour and they have an old school pizza oven. I went in a few minutes before close tonight and watched them make my pizza fresh and it was delicious as usual. Also like supporting a small family owned business. I highly recommend a cheese pizza or the white pizza. read more

Gluten free crust is some of the best I've tried, my hubby likes his calzone too, said they hand rolled the dough. The service was great. Would definitely recommend them. read more

The service from Eibor was amazing he made sure we had all of our cutlery, seasoning packets, napkins and plates!! The pizza was 10/10 which he insisted it was good to be the BEST. My husband and I both work and live on south beach and recommended this place to EVERYONE! Cute atmosphere outside to eat or take togo. read more

We got the Penne AlaVodka which was delicious. Family owned which is what we prefer. Really want to try the pizza and salads

This pizza is so good! The margarita and pepperoni hit the spot! We also got the garlic bread knots equally delicious. Perfectly New York style pizza. It's really more of a take it to go type of place. There were tables outside but when we decided to stay I wasn't aware they don't bring you plates, silverware or anything to eat. As a mom with little kids it would have been nice to know that. Just a warning for others. read more

Fantastic. Crust, cheese, all great. I'm picky and enjoyed it. Friendly service, went in right before close and they made us a pie.

Great to have a vegan option nearby. I was able to modify a couple things easily to meet our needs, including the veggie pizza without cheese and garlic knots without Parmesan. read more

Pizza and salad were both fresh and tasty. Walk right off the beach and grab a pie and eat or take it home. I'll be back.

This was incredible. Great NY style pizza, the baked wings are insanely good too. Margherita Pizza was amazing, and the garlic knots were amazing too. I would eat this meal every day for the rest of my life. read more

This place is right near the beach, and is easy to access, it has a very tranquil atmosphere with a nice patio. In total, we ordered 8 pizzas on a 6 day stay, I should've bought two more to drive home with. Crust was perfect thickness, cheese : sauce ratio on point, pepperonis were thick cut, The Parmesan was chunky grated and high quality. The bbq chicken was a hit with my kids, and my wife made her own, everyone was extremely happy, every time we ordered, the kids didn't even want to give the dogs their crusts.. read more

Best pizza Clearwater Beach. There is nothing that can compare. It's NYC delicious.

Great pizza and super nice owner! Frequent quick stop for me for an easy bite. Nice little outside seating area if you want to hang out

Was staying nearby while on vacation and stopped here during a late night. Pizza was excellent, and was so good we had to come back before leaving Clearwater. Staff was also super friendly, I highly recommend. read more

No frills very good New York style pizza. Small so pickup or outside seating only. Good prices.

It has been several years since my visit to Clearwater, but I will NEVER forget the pizza!! I searched for a long time to find the name so I could leave a review. I was staying at Hotel Cabana at the time, and it was a short walk for a cheap slice of some of the best pizza I have ever eaten! Thin, cheesy, foldable, and perfect in every way! At that time they served by the slice late at night, it was perfect to grab a piece on the walk back to the hotel from the bar. To this day I crave a slice! Thank you Alba for giving me such wonderful memories, and ruining all other pizza for me:) read more

Pizza was one of the best I had in awhile. Owners very polite and friendly. Dont pass this place up. Worth the stop read more

2nd time* I got the meat lovers pizza this round which was much better. The dough tasted better and fully cooked which makes me wonder if it's because I got the small last time. Now if you are a pork lover, you might feel weird about this pizza as the sausage taste nothing like pork sausage. That being said, I absolutely love that this place is beef based. I love meat on my pizza but never get it because it's always pork based. This pizza was sweeter than the margarita too.. the sauce tasted sweeter and it had a hint of cinnamon. Overall I am please with it and will def be back for another meat lovers. read more

I thought we the pizza was the best pizza on the beach but I have been proven wrong with today's visit. Alba is a cute little pizza store on the corner of mandalay. The pizza tasted different from any I've had in Clearwater, the sauce has a subtle sweetness that complemented the cheese very well. There must be some herbs blended in and I loved it. It's a small shop but you have a clear view of the kitchen and an interactive experience with the owner , who was very friendly to me and my brother. Great experience great pizza . Try alba out read more

Authentic as it gets. Passionate dude with 33 years of restaurant experience that's been through the ups and downs of the industry. From the sauce to the dough, everything is made from scratch! My first bite was interesting because this was different from 90% of pizzas out there. He makes the sauce so it's got some unique nice herb twist he adds mixed with some sweet tanginess, this already sets it apart from the others. Crust was crispy and had a great New York style under carriage. And the fact that there's no pork in anything is just another awesome perk. This means it's beef pepperonis, sausages, etc. and I'm all about my beef!!! Two thumbs up, genuinely one of the best pizza you can find in the entirety of Clearwater Florida. read more

I normally don't write too many reviews. However, this spot was worth one. I came here with my wife and 3 daughters. The lady was super nice! So was the gentleman. Service was A+ This without a doubt is authentic to the crust. The sauce is not that cheap sugary sauce you get from commercial places. This is the real deal. Absolutely fantastic! Be ready to fold that triangle in half and watch it hold straight out. Bellissimo! read more

Ordered a large three topping pizza. They seem to have forgotten or barely put on any of the third topping. Beef jalapeño, and black olive had very very little beef. I would not recommend this pizza only in a pinch. Way overpriced. read more

They replaced another shop that was there and wow what a difference! they also make some breakfast items and sweets, However the pizza itself usually stands alone! By far the best pizza on the beach , with a quiet little outdoor spot to sit down and enjoy! By far the best pizza on the beach, its not even close! read more
