    From bottom left to right: Chef's Special, Bruschetta, and the Dirty Pepperoni
    Wendy L.

    My favorite pizza place is Prince Street Pizza. Correction: my favorite pizza place WAS Prince Street Pizza because Dirty Pepperoni just blew my mind out. With its sumptuous eats and convenient hours and location, this place has it all. I HIGHLY, and I mean HIGHLY, recommend the Dirty Pepperoni and Chef's Special as the starting pizzas because, oh my dear, they taste absolutely scrumptious. The Dirty Pepperoni comes littered with artisan pepperoni -the kind curls while being baked in the oven; all while drizzled with their hot honey, giving this pizza a sweet kick (and licks!). The second pizza one should try here (in the same sitting) is the Chef's special. Unlike the DP (dirty pepperoni), this one is a white pizza made with their white garlic sauce and topped with bacon. There's an important tip to this pizza: while absolutely fantastic on its own, DO ask for the hot honey sauce to this pizza. It takes this pizza from level 50 to level 100. Man, I can't stop thinking about how much it elevated the experience it added. However, if you're tire of hot honey, do get the chef special, it is great on its own! Lastly, I want to shout out to Moe for being an MVP employee. She was so friendly and helpful - she's the person who convinced us to try their house sauces (their house ranch and a ROSE ranch) and add the hot honey to the Chef's Special. Thanks to her, our pizza standards will never be the same.

    Pepperoni and jalapeño's. My half added mushrooms her half she added pineapple

    First time here The atmosphere here is awesome. Kinda dim. The waiters are on top of it. Pizza was so good. It came out fast. The wings were also real good. The prices are very reasonable also. I definitely recommend.

    Medium Smoked Buffalo Brisket and Medium The Naked Pizza
    Andrea D.

    My friend and I wanted to try a new pizza spot and found The Dirty Pepperoni on TikTok :) We got the naked pizza, the smoked buffalo brisket, and the dirty ceasar. Everything was fantastic! The salad was so light and refreshing, the pizzas were made perfectly and have a thinner crust which is my favorite. Between the two pizzas I like the Naked Pizza more. Don't get me wrong, the smoked buffalo brisket was really good, but next time I think I would ask for the blue cheese on the side or to go light on it. It overpowered the rest of the flavors in my opinion. Still delicious though! I got a side of the pink sauce which almost tasted like a sweeter ranch. It was a good flavor to mix with the pizzas :) The servers were very attentive and nice! They checked on us frequently to make sure the food was good and if we needed anything. We sat on the first floor that included a small bar and ordering station along with a soda fountain so you could grab a drink as you see fit! It was slow when we went so we almost had the place all to ourselves. It was kept clean and comfortable. I would definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for a good pizza :)

    Hell yeah

    Wish my mother still lived at the Lafayette building across the street then it would be more of an excuse to visit more often but my god, the pizza was mighty good, and wuuut, they give you honey to pour over the pepperoni. That was new to us and it was interesting in a good way! The wings don't come in flats but we still liked them, the pink ranch was also different, though good. We enjoyed two pitchers of beer, and watched the game. Our server was bubbly and attentive, we appreciated her warm service. The place is cool, not busy on a Tuesday for lunch- def be back since we do business downtown, good reason for us to revisit! Thanks!

    First off, the staff here are super friendly and helpful. Also, the personal pizza is a good deal and hella delicious! I got mine with jalapeños and black olives.

    The dirty pepperoni pizza with hot honey
    Lydia J.

    Our server, Kumari was amazing!! Our first time there and right off the bat she made us feel so welcome, like we were long time customers. The food is the best. We got the dirty pepperoni pizza and WOW!! Flavor explosion!! Great choices for beer as well. There is indoor and outdoor seating, super comfy. The weather was great for sitting outside also. As we sat there we noticed not one or two but at least 9 people walk in who Kumari greeted by name. She knows her customers and they love her. Talk about an ambassador for a pizza joint! Left her a 25 dollar tip on the receipt and my husband said here give her 20 more, I gave it to the owner I hope he passed it on. That's how impressed we were. Her timing was great she was nothing but smiles and the food was nothing but amazing. Thanks and we will see you again!! Definitely going back with more people next trip! I'm

    I got the Dirty Pepperoni w/hot honey and it was Legit w/the garlic sauce Great selection of beers on Tap - I got Voodoo Ranger - More bang for the buck Will be back w/ the homies to try more on the menu

    The Linden! Yummy and fresh!
    Tatibella D.

    We had an great experience at Dirty Pepperoni! Located in downtown Long Beach, it was the perfect choice for us after a night out at Disney on Ice, at the Long Beach Arena. The staff was super welcoming and provided great service throughout our visit. A special shoutout to Lorraine (hope I spelled her name right), who truly went above and beyond to make our time there pleasant. Her A1 customer service and genuine hospitality made such a big difference. The food did not disappoint at all. We ordered a personal pizza with olives and sausage for our baby girl, and it was perfect. She gave it a 29 out of 10 lol! My husband and I shared a pepperoni and sausage pizza with light garlic sauce, topped with a hot honey drizzle and ranch. It was absolutely delicious. Their hot honey has a thicker honey like consistency with a nice kick, unlike other hot honey sauces I am used to that are thinner and more like hot sauce with a honey flavor. I was initially a little skeptical, but it ended up being the perfect addition to the pizza. The thin crust was perfectly cooked and had just the right balance of crisp and chew. We also tried the Linden salad, which was fresh and flavorful, packed with yummy veggies and Canadian bacon. The house rose gold ranch was unique and delicious.Beautifully pink and tasty! We were craving their delicious pizza the next day and only wished this spot was closer to us, but we will definitely be coming back. Only downside was the fountain drinks were out of order this night. But they still had plenty of can soda options as well as a full bar with beer on tap. Otherwise, highly recommend for great food, great people, and a great vibe! They are also open late which makes it a great spot to stop at for food after a night on the town!

    This was my first time ordering from Dirty Pizza, and we went with the thin crust. I have to admit... I'm usually not a pizza person, but WOW--this one surprised me! It's unlike any pizza I've had before. The crust is paper-thin, perfectly crispy, with a little hint of sweetness followed by a nice kick of spice. It's one of those pizzas that keeps you reaching for "just one more slice." Seriously... look how thin that crust is! We ordered it for pickup, and the service was super fast. If you're looking to try something a little different from your usual pizza, Dirty Pizza might just surprise you like it surprised me. Place is nice,and has second floor.

    Dirty Pepperoni 5/5 - thin crispy crust and I liked that there was a little burn in the pepperonis Dirty Caesar salad 3.5/5 - the dressing was a little lacking in flavor but overall a decent Caesar salad 5/5 ambiance - limited seating indoors but lots of outside seating with half of the area with heat lamps and the other side without. 5/5 customer service - great friendly and amazing staff

    I have been seeing this pizzeria for awhile now on social media and have been looking forward to trying it. Had lunch with a buddy and wanted to grab as slice and catch a World Cup game. The hostess/owner I believe was this kind and sweet woman who was eager to seat us and give us the BEST possible service you can ask for. She shared the story of the humble pizzeria. The establishment itself was gorgeous and featured two levels of roomy space that also does group parties. The pizza itself is delicious! Along the homemade sauces the hostess said were made in house. The quality of ingredients were top tier. We stayed for a while and it started to get fairly busy for the dinner hour. I am truly looking forward to visiting Dirty Pepperoni again. And to the kind hostess; thank you for being genuine and sharing your love for pizza and people!

    Large Dirty Pepperoni Pizza

    Woahhhhhh! We stumbled upon this place because we simply wanted pizza. We found this with no expectations but good pizza. We have NEVERRRR had hot honey drizzled on pizza before either. We ordered a large to go and ate almost the whole box in the car. It is absolutely delicious! WE HIGHLYYYYY RECOMMEND THIS SPOT to EVERYONEEEEE! It's almost TOO GOOD

    Just for pizza 5 stars. Keep thinking about this pizza. I already want to go back!!! Late night vibe poppin. Our waiter was great but the wait time was terrible. Got our wings waaay after our pizza. Our pizza took almost 45 min to get out. Definitely call to pick up. Like most of Long Beach, parking is rough but it's worth it. Dirty Pepperoni Pizza -- it's not grease it's hot honey! Sooo fricking delicious. New York style and the flavor bussin! Between 2 of us there was no leftovers. Buffalo Wings -- big decent size but a little on the dry side (inside the chicken). Sauced down which I loved. Pretty acidic which wasn't for me. Fountain drinks had hella options too plus beer on tap! This a win for Long Beach.

Buffalo Bill had that perfect spicy, tangy buffalo flavor with the vinegar acidity you want from a good buffalo sauce. If you like heat, definitely try it. Night of the Chicken Dead was creamy, garlicky, and loaded with chicken. We also tried a few of their non-traditional cocktails and the deep-fried cinnamon balls for dessert. The cinnamon balls have a warmer spice profile with noticeable nutmeg/allspice flavors. The atmosphere is basically punk-rock bar meets horror pizzeria, and that's part of the charm. Stickers and artwork everywhere, loud punk music, cocktails, pizza and a very casual downtown Long Beach vibe. Just know that the music is LOUD, and the restaurant can run a little warm during summer with the pizza ovens going. First-timer tip: When you walk in, get in line first. That's where you order both your food and cocktails. Seating at the tables and barstools is first come, first served. Great spot if you like horror, punk rock, good pizza and places with some personality.

Well asked for it to be welcome and perfectly it came out. Our main was Pappardelle with short rib and the lemon chicken. Unfortunately the mains were pretty cold. Small blame on the kitchen. Here is how my experience became a WOW. My server NASTASSIA was the reason my night was perfect. She was so understanding and empathetic about the cold food. She immediately asked what she could do to make it better. She requested a new dish to be fired up. New pappardelle came out perfect with another side of mashed potatoes. She once again asked blue the food was and if we're were happy. She also informed the manager of our experience. She came over and also apologized and offered my wife and I dessert. My wife picked the bread pudding. Overall I am a BIG believer that employees are the reason for the success of a business. More employees in the world need to be more like Natassia. THANK YOU

Not a big deal though as my taste buds prefer beer with pizza ... Anyway, I'll start with parking. Metered street parking or you can do laps until you find a spot on the residential side streets that I believe are free without restrictions. If there are signs, I don't know because I chose to park in a metered space and managed time via the app (Passport Parking). Service was great. The team - I say team because several staff members were on the floor and they worked together with orders, following up and even changing the games on a TV for me so I was craning my neck to watch. Appreciated it big time. Then the food - I liked it but didn't love it. Here's my take - it was bready or doughy but I prefer more flaky. The sauce for me I like sweeter - but on that it's probably because I'm used to sauce being covered by cheese and toppings. But I did like it. I'd go back and have it again. I just have to get it out of my head that every place is different and going in with expectations thinking I was gonna have what I had when in Chicago is on me. Enjoyed the flavor of the chicken wings but felt they were a little dry. It's an open restaurant with communal seating (bar height) in the middle with lower tables on the outside, speaking of - a few tables outside as well. TVs all around. Only one TV's audio will be broadcasting though - keep that in mind if you're going for the games.

Also I love that they let you know on a big sign that the pizza is going to take certain amount of minutes. You can't rush perfection lol The pizza is that. I usually get the deep dish but this time we did the thin crust and it was so good. Their wings and their ranch are a must Wifey really likes the bruschetta.
