Tried Dirty Pepperoni for the first time last night and was extremely disappointed with the service and experience. I was in the Long Beach area and decided to give this place a try that i've seen on tiktok. It was a Friday night around 9PM, not extremely busy inside but a good amount of customers. From the moment we got there it was a little chaotic. Very confusing system of where to order/ ask for a table to dine in or just get some assistance in general! We finally got helped and were seated at a booth table that was very small and crammed (definitely uncomfortable). There was only 1 waitress at the time and she was juggling more than 6 tables, so it was very hard to get assistance from her which led to the service being terrible. Our waitress was very inattentive, we only saw her when she took our order and gave us our food. No check ins at all we were ignored for our whole experience. Once we got our pizza our waitress did not give us any plates to eat with... which was weird because that's usually the first thing they give you at restaurants. But anyways, it was extremely difficult to reach her and ask for plates we had to get up and wait until someone at the bar could get us plates. We also ordered wings, which did not come out until almost 20 minutes after the pizza!!! Seriously ridiculous we had already basically finished our food and were about to cancel our wings but again like I mentioned it was so hard to get any assistance AT ALL!! Also, our waitress completely disappeared after we got our food we could not find her and there was no one helping out at any tables. A while after that a new waitress came in and started helping out people who were waiting to be sat. This waitress was even worse! She was terribly inattentive, rude and just in her own world. There was a table of guys which it looked like she knew and I kid you not she was at their table talking to them for the remaining time we were there. She full on was standing there chatting not doing her job bringing them out free pitchers of beer just hanging out.... Does anyone do their job here? We were not checked on or assisted at all! And it looks like we weren't the only ones, so many other people weren't being helped. Not to mention several people walked out that were waiting to be sat because of how inattentive and unprofessional they were! I've never had such an unusual experience like this. Very understaffed from the looks of it. Please don't come here unless you don't mind the lack of customer service and professionalism! The pizza itself wasn't bad. Very honey forward you couldn't really taste anything but the honey. I'd say a 6/10. The wings were burnt but they weren't too bad. I wouldn't get them again. Very disappointed in the service of this establishment. Extreme improvement is needed this was an awful experience. Definitely will not be coming back anytime soon at all!!! read more

After weeks of seeing this place on TikTok I finally gave it a try. I believe this place is fairly new. I showed up right at opening and a lovely lady greeted me ; who was also the server. Shout out to that lady who worked about 5 tables at a time. There was really good music playing . The booths seats don't have that much space but they give you a city view . So I order an 8 piece chicken wings . I tried to mix flavors but that's not an option so I decided to get garlic Parmesan . The wings are crispy just how I like them but they lacked the garlic Parmesan flavor. They had other flavors that sound really good like Korean bbq .Now the star of the show The dirty pepperoni pizza ; traditional pepperoni pizza with a hot honey drizzle. But far one of the best stone grill pizza I've ever had .I've already made plans to take some friends cause the pizza is phenomenal 10/10 read more

I came to this place to get some garlic bread for my leftover pasta and I met this Gem by the name of Lorraine and she HOOKED ME up with the cheese pizza that was off the chain. It had a garlic base and it was PHENOMENAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was in the area again and stopped in and I had to find her and tell her how great her choice was. She was super friendly to me that I owed this to her. The food I had was excellent. I ordered another pizza and I let her pick the toppings and I am % a fan of this young lady.

So I decided to come and check this place out since it just opened and me and my family like pizza brought my son here for his birthday and the pizza was really good. It's oven toasted thin crust with good flavor, but the wings were no go for me. They were overcooked basically burnt and they just pour the sauce on top of it. as far as the pastrami sandwich that was a no go for me either it's not on your regular sandwich bread it's pizza dough that they make it with and they add ranch dressing on it not a good combo also as for the service it was OK you sit down they bring you your menus take your order and they're pretty fast. They didn't have salad and it's not a full bar and they only had limited beer available. They did tell us it's still in the soft opening process, so maybe that's why.they didn't have all the stuff on the menu . read more

The pizza size is huge here so it's worth the money, especially since it's yummy ! I've tried pizza from other places in HB/Dana Point (places that have high reviews too) and it isn't worth it at all for the price, taste & size. I'm so glad that i finally found a local pizza spot that hits the mark on everything. read more

My friends and I just visited this pizza spot recommended to us in downtown Long Beach. Unfortunately, we were unable to sit inside because there was a big party reservation, but there was plenty of outdoor seating for us to sit anyway! The staff were very nice and did their best to make us feel welcome even when we couldn't sit inside to get the full experience. We ordered the dirty pepperoni pizza in the 18 inch, and it was just enough for the four of us. We each had 3 slices to ourselves, and it was perfect. We got extra hot honey and their special ranch (which is pink!) to go with our pizza. Overall, it was a great experience, and I can't wait to try their other pizza combos! read more

Wow!!! Was I pleasantly surprised at this establishment. From the time we walked in the owner greeted us and walked us through the menu.

We will definitely be back next time we are in town!!!!!! read more

Came in to get a personal pizza, pepperoni w/ black olives. Definitely a cool had out spot, beer & wine mainly. The floors are super cool, it's like art. Pound seating vibes, it was pretty busy. The music is like 80's dance music, it was a vibe. The cashier and waiter were very nice. Decent pricing. They have an upstairs area but I didn't go up. My order took about 15mins. I got it to go. The personal was more than enough for me. I love how they gave me a really good amount of black olives. The pizza had a food flavor. Want too thick or too thin. And I loved that the pepperonis were spicy! I wish it was a little less cheese in it though, it was very cheesy. read more

Hey ! So I finally got to try the pizza next door to blind donkey , like literally after last call to be correct , First! The service was fast , who ever took my order was very kind , so many people were waiting for their personal pie , from what I know they don't do single slices , but it honestly worked cause I finished my whole personal pan , I ordered just a regular pepperoni pizza & towards the end I asked for the hot honey from everyone who said was good . I will say , I'm a spicy girl , so the hot honey was just honey ... buuuut it was still a good add on lol I like pineapple on my pizza * plz judge me * I don't care . It could be spicier ... lol I will say . But I will definitely have to come back n try other items , I have so many suggestions to try so I'm excited. See you soon read more

Came into Dirty Pepperoni on the night of Game 6 of the World Series to watch the game and grab a bite, and I must say this spot definitely has potential to become a neighborhood favorite. First off, the space is beautifully designed with warm lighting, a modern look, and a cool energy inside. There's an upstairs and downstairs setup, and even though it was still their soft opening and the upstairs wasn't open yet, you could tell it's going to be a whole vibe once it's fully in use. Service was good and quick, especially for a soft opening. Everyone was friendly and the food came out in a reasonable amount of time. We started with a Caesar salad. It was solid, fresh, and did its job, but nothing I'd specifically come back for or write home about. From there we split the Dirty Pepperoni pizza and asked for it extra crispy. It did not disappoint. Nice undercarriage with a solid crunch, good amount of pepperoni, and overall a very satisfying pie. But the surprise star of the night was the Dirty Pastrami sandwich. It was delicious and the perfect balance of creamy richness and acidity, super flavorful, and honestly not what I expected to be the standout item. Low key a must order. Overall for a soft opening the vibes and atmosphere were on point, the food was solid, and the service was on it. It's a 4 star spot for now but I'm excited to come back once they're fully dialed in, especially when that upstairs opens up and I can try more of the menu. read more

We ordered the prosciutto and pomegranate seasonal pizza for takeout. The crust was very well made and the ingredients seemed high quality. The prices were high compared to take out pizza but the restaurant (which was closed at the time) looked very vibey and cool! Next time would preferably go in for dine in but I think the pizza we ordered was among the more expensive items on the menu. Overall pleasant experience and will return to try other options and the restaurant again. read more

Thanks to a great IG food blogger, we dined at Dirty Pepperoni tonight. I literally sent hubby one of their soft opening posts, took my long nap (I'm a nightshift'er), and when I woke up I was told to get ready to eat and this was where we were going! BTW... hubby and I are lowkey on this search for a cool pizza place hangout, so....... Parking is the usual Long Beach get-in-where-you-fit-in kind of situation. We parked in a lot around the corner and it was a 3 minute walk to Dirty Pepperoni. We were greeted right away, and were able to sit at a table within 5 minutes of being there. They have a fairly simple menu, which I appreciate. Good food shouldn't be complicated, right? It's their soft opening so we were told they're not serving alcohol at the moment, they're not serving the dessert pizzas, and they're not serving their by-the-slice menu option. I already knew the twins were gonna order just the pepperoni pizza because they're picky like that, and I was looking forward to trying their seasonal pizza and one of their salads. The twins did get their pepperoni, and we decided on the Linden salad that comes with black olives, red onion, banana peppers, and roasted red peppers and drizzled with Italian dressing. I'm not sure if the dressing is house-made, but it was delicious. We weren't able to order the seasonal pizza because they ran out of Brie cheese and pomegranate, so bummer on that. We ordered the Broadlind, which comes with red and green chorizo, bacon, red onion, and jalapeño. I've never heard of nor had green chorizo before, but it's really tasty! It's more herb-y and veggie-y than the red chorizo because of the cilantro and poblano peppers and such used to make it, apparently. They ran out of their regular ranch, but we were offered their Pink Sauce, which is their take on ranch. I think I heard our waitress say something about dragonfruit was added, I'm not too certain? We received our drinks first, then our salad, and then our pizzas. The hourglass decor on the tables are nice, and they run for 15 minutes. We received our food in a timely manner, according to the hourglasses. The twins made sure of that! The twins thoroughly enjoyed their pepperoni pizza, and they both took turns doing their cheese pulls, a good arm's length! They ate every part of the pizza, too, which can be a big deal. If they eat the crust, it's a darn good pizza! Hubby and I left one slice of our medium-sized pizza. You'd think with all of the chorizo and bacon that the pizza would be greasy, but it totally wasn't. The thin crust was perfect and crisp, when you took a bite the rest of the toppings stayed put, and if you're a pizza slice folder'er type, you can do so without the slice falling apart on you. We ordered the pastrami sandwich to go for my oldest son. He said the sandwich was "very good"! I didn't see any pickles, but I like how they also use banana peppers. Overall vibes were your usual chill and friendly Long Beach standard. There was a good mix of families and couples, everyone seemed to enjoy their food, the waitstaff were friendly and prompt, and every dining space was filled during our time there. We spent about $90 for 4 sodas, a salad, two medium pizzas, and a sandwich. I'd love to come back to Dirty Pepperoni! For a first timer, their food was great, my family enjoyed it very much, and who knows... maybe this could be hubby and mine's new pizza hangout?!?! read more

(4 Stars) Dirty Pepperoni - Long Beach, CA (Linden Ave.) Visit Date: March 6, 2026 This was my first time trying Dirty Pepperoni in Long Beach, and overall it was a very good experience. The pizza here is a very thin-crust style, which I generally enjoy. I would have liked the crust to be just a little crispier, but it was still very good. The ingredients tasted fresh, and the toppings were generous. We ordered a medium pizza with pepperoni, jalapeño, and pineapple, and the combination worked surprisingly well together. The ambiance is one of the highlights of this place. The restaurant is located inside a historic Long Beach building from the 1920s that was originally a hotel. The space has since been converted into a few restaurants with a whiskey bar downstairs, which gives the whole place a really cool, historic vibe. It's a unique setting for grabbing pizza. Service was perfectly decent for a pizza spot--friendly enough and efficient. The only real downside is the price. They only offer two pizza sizes, medium and large, and the medium we ordered for two people was just barely enough. The medium pizza with three toppings was $32, a small salad was $11, and a fountain drink was $4.50. The food was very good, but that's definitely on the high side for pizza. That said, I will return. The quality of the ingredients, the thin-crust style, and the cool historic setting make it worth another visit--just be prepared for the prices. read more

Dirty Pizzeria - Pepperoni pizza - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

A new contender has arrived in Downtown Long Beach, and simply put, it is peak excellence in pizzeria form. Food, service, vibes, all top tier. Came through on a busy Friday evening and service was prompt and on top of everything. It's clear there's a high standard for everything here, and it is achieved well. Food was served quickly. Ingredients are of high quality and freshness. We had the Dirty Pepperoni, medium. Perfectly balanced mild spice experience with the spicy pepperoni and hot honey. Crust was perfectly crisp, and pizza overall had a slight char. Also tried the Dirty Pastrami and this is what absolutely sold me. Thinly sliced pastrami, nice and fatty. Topped with pepperoncini, pickles, mustard, and provolone, all nestled in a fresh baked pizza crust like bread that wraps around making for very little mess. This is the type of sandwich I'm going to think about regularly going forward. Doubling back, all in all this was an absolutely excellent experience, I highly recommend. Try it, like it, support it, and let this new business thrive and grow. They're currently in their "soft opening" stages, but can't wait to see this place operating in full effect. read more

Went to Dirty Pepperoni last night for their soft opening. We ordered a medium (8 slices) pepperoni and half sausage pizza. Pizza is thin crust and delicious.

Came during lunchtime and ordered their signature hot pepperoni pizza. The pizza itself was decent. Nothing that I would actually come back for or recommend anybody. However, the place itself seemed like it would be a cool place to have a beer and eat pizza. Basically what I'm trying to say is what I come back sober to eat pizza probably not what I come to have a beer and a slice absolutely this place looks like it's a cool place to hang out and the Customer Service was welcoming. read more

I had the Dirty Pepperoni this past weekend, and after posting it on social media, so many people asked how it was that I figured I'd leave a review. We ordered the pepperoni and hot honey pizza along with the pastrami sandwich. We didn't have to wait to be seated and were helped right away. The restaurant has a great vibe- modern, comfortable, and welcoming, with a good mix of age ranges. There's also a bar area with TVs, which adds to the atmosphere. The service was excellent, and the food came out in a reasonable time about what you'd expect for freshly made pizza. The pastrami sandwich was incredible! I don't usually like pastrami, but this one completely won me over. I'd honestly eat it once a week if I could. The pizza was cooked perfectly and the flavors were spot-on. You can really tell they use quality ingredients. Overall, this place is a must-try if you're from Long Beach. Great food, great service, and a perfect spot for a date night. Highly recommend! read more

Dirty Pepperoni popped up on my Tik Tok feed and it looked amazing!! I said I would go Friday. I went Friday night, I ordered their "The Dirty Pepperoni". The venue has a great ambiance, the staff were very nice. As soon as I walked in I was greeted. I ordered my pizza to go. It looked amazing, when I tried it, it was kind of a let down. The crust was very crunchy, but to me it lacked flavor. What was really holding it together was the hot honey drizzle. I bought my own bottle after trying this pizza. It was a bit over $26 and I don't think I'd be back. It didn't stand out and for the price I was expecting a bit more read more

This was a great experience. We got to sit outside and being from Texas, sitting outside in July and not melting is amazing! The patio allows for a view to see the world go by while in the shade. The waitress was attentive and so kind. We ordered wings and 3 personal pizzas all different. Everything we had was delicious! I would definitely recommend trying this place! read more

The people hating on the time it's taking, I guess don't know what a soft open is all about and if the food is quality, which it is, doesn't need to come out fast. We came in and ordered the Dirty Caesar, a medium Dirty Pepperoni and Chef's Special pizza. Didn't take more than about 20 minutes to come out and the waitress was checking in frequently. Everything was damn amazing!!! They also have an in house made ranch and Pink Sauce that I would highly recommend! The inside has a dope aesthetic to it as well that isn't pretentious, but not divey either. We look forward to coming back to try the sandwiches and the calzones as well. Well worth a visit in an area that has a lot of great pizza! read more
