A group of 8 of us arrived this past Saturday and we were greeted and sat quickly. Our waitress Mina was so friendly and welcoming. We literally chose every item she suggested from pizzas, wings to sandwiches because she was confident about it being great. Everything was absolutely delicious and Mina gave great service! She truly made the experience even better. We really enjoyed our visit and would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for good food and excellent customer service! My only critic is to update the outside with some signage or window decor because we weren't sure we were at the right place until we saw the take out window. read more

So... I finally came back for dine in. It was a last minute stop since it was one of the only places open. I figured, let me give this place another try. & @ Mikey, the pineapple on pizza wasn't my order-- it was my friends but I *have* to let it be known that pineapple doesn't belong on pizza lol. So that's your logical explanation. Service was amazing, the two girls working really made my experience go well. They were so kind and friendly. The pizza was crunchy, I like the mini pepperonis. I added parm and red chili flakes to mine for some added pizzazz. I only ordered the personal sized pizza which was a perfect serving size for a personal pizza. I did split it. I'd come back for the dine in, IF I can find parking. Yall already know how LB is... that parking situation is ruthless. Restroom in the back is interesting. You pass by the kitchen, and it's a single use. I had to pass by the guy who was washing the mop or something in their larger sink next to the actual sink you wash your hands in. There's also an upstairs-- but I didn't go up to see it. That would be interesting to experience next time. The overall ambiance is pretty nice. I enjoyed it. It's darker inside and I like that. read more

Dirty Pizzeria - Personal Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

Dirty Pepperoni is enticing, but I originally removed it from my list because I thought it was too pricey for pizza. However, when I visited I saw they had a personal 8" for $9 and $1 toppings, which was all I needed. I'm fat, but not obese, so a medium or large wasn't necessary. I wanted to sit upstairs, but wasn't able to. Maybe next time. Also, this spot is cashless, so bring your card(s). I had personal pizza with pepperoni, sausage, and mushrooms. The crust was excellent and the toppings were delightful. I knew it was good, because only crumbs remained. They also had a few TVs showing MMA, so I was able to watch dudes pummel each other while enjoying a robust tomato sauce. Lastly, Lo was kind & friendly while dining. read more

This place has been around for a good year, and I can safely say that the pizza here is pretty good. We came on a holiday, so there was an issue with food being short, but not pizza. They have a good amount of seating and I believe they have a second floor. I kept things simple, and just ordered pepperoni and mushroom. I got a beer and my wife got a soda. The pizza was thin crust and the flavors were really good on top of it. My wife prefers a little more sauciness, but she enjoyed each slice. We will definitely be coming back to try the Caesar salad and the wings, because apparently their Korean style wings are very popular. read more

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. read more

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 :) read more

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! read more

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 read more

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! read more

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. read more

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. read more

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! read more

A pizza place within walking distance of me? Say no more! Dirty Pepperoni serves up my new favorite calzones and hot honey pizza - and I've yet to try their sandwiches, but am sure I'll love those too. I usually end up asking for a medium Dirty Pepperoni pizza with the pink garlic dipping sauce, absolutely scrumptious. I like that their crust isn't too heavy, and slices pull apart easily. They even have a late night personal pizza for $10 at 10pm. Dangerous, in the most delicious way possible :) Restaurant is located on the corner of Broadway and Linden Ave., which I believe has free parking after 6pm. Inside, be seated at the bar, a table, or the balcony which can be rented for group events. The poured acrylic floor is a fun aesthetic and my favorite thing is how you're able to peek into the kitchen from the outside and watch them cut the pizza pies with a huge blade! I typically order takeout, but have found service here to be phenomenal as well! The last time, they even offered my rescue dog Darby a couple slices of pepperoni (which he was all too happy to accept). Come for lunch or dinner - everything's good! read more

Dirty pepperoni is the newest pizza spot in the DTLB area (which always makes things fun). They are soft opened so everything I mention may change later. The vibe is very city, moto, almost New York (but not with the pizza). There's even a motorcycle parked up on the loft above. The menu for dinner had a lot of things crossed off including salads, their popular sandwich, wings, Mexican coca cola (which is a big hit), and had scribbles from alcohol not being available to having available written. Once a menu is ironed out, there probably will be a beer list somewhere besides looking over at taps. My SO and I shared a medium dirty pepperoni pizza, and each had our own can of soda. The pepperoni on the pizza was great, the hot honey drizzle was a sweet play with the pepperoni. The pizza was thin crust, and cleverly served on a serving tray with tiny holes which I'm guessing helps prevent it from sitting in its own grease entirely. The thing is, even as eaten as quickly as we went after it, it started sagging and folding downwards. The tip to eat this is fast, and to fold it. Seating wise, I believe there's room for 18 in total indoors unless you sit at the bar. The loft above is a no-go. There's two couches to sit at but no tables, so maybe it's a good spot to lounge with a beer. Service for us was quick and sweet. I forgot our waitresses name but she checked in. I did notice that tables finished their entire pints before getting their pies so this may be a point that still has some ironing out to do (growing pains are part of the process). After everything, we still left hungry. A medium super thin crust pizza can go down pretty easy. That makes this spot probably best for lunch IMO. It was $29 with change in total ($22 for the pie, $2.50 each can of soda, and tax). I know the pizza around here is competitive; this price range is difficult for what it is (and it pains me to say this knowing the rent here must be astronomical). Maybe they can figure out a deal with the blind donkey or something, or get a soda machine to make things a little easier. Idk. I may return because the salads actually looked tasty. read more

Overhyped to say the least. The pizza is good but not great. I dined in and we were given black plastic plates for the pizza we ordered. Very off putting. Especially since the pizza is a bit on the expensive side. Their garlic sauce has beet juice which just does not blend well. Kind of a one and done type of place. They really need to reevaluate the black plastic plates. Not a good look. I did like their water however. read more

Learned about this new pizza place in DTLB from fellow Yelpers that I met recently at the LB Yelpies. It opened in October and is still in the soft opening phase. It has a small, focused menu, centered around a very good thin crust pizza. I hadn't taken a long downtown walk in a while, so decided to walk the eleven blocks or so to pick up a variety of items and bring it back for lunch. My wife and her mother agreed: everything was tasty. I arrived a little before 11, and the doors opened promptly. Lorraine was manning the front with the chef/co-owner manning the back. She explained that the ovens hadn't been fully warmed up yet, so would take 20 minutes before they could start baking. Wasn't a problem for me, so placed and paid for my order, re-confirming that it was a carry-out. She warmed up quite a bit as I waited, offering me a complementary beverage (got some fruit infused water) and giving off better vibes for receptiveness of questions. I was admiring the 12 taps built into the backwall, and she pointed me towards the nitro tap that currently spews Modern Times Nitro Cold Brew...pretty sure my wife would love that (with me gravitating towards the cervezas and Blue Moon). The items came out as they were finished, with the calzone first, sandwich second, and the medium pizza last. I had to try a slice of the pizza immediately, and it was excellent: thin crust but solid enough to be crispy in the middle and hold as much toppings as possible. The dough was quite good by itself. Ended up eating another pizza slice before heading off as the world's slowest pizza delivery guy. It took a while to get home, because I wanted to stop by a nearby bakery to pick up their happy hours specials at noon (reconfirming my initial reaction that that bakery is not a place for me). Medium Dirty Pepperoni ($21.99) - really good quality spicy pepperoni, very tasty but not overly greasy (no need to blot out the grease on top with a paper towel)...would be perfect on top of a Detroit style. The crust was still good, but had gotten a little soggy. This is a pizza that needs to be consumed as soon as possible. Dirty Pastrami Sandwich ($16.80) - the other menu item mentioned frequently in reviews. It uses a freshly baked flatbread made from the same pizza dough. It's a well constructed sandwich, with a lot of pickles and banana peppers if you like a lot of vinegar on your sandwich (which I do). The quality and quantity of the pastrami was just OK, though. Calzone with two toppings ($17.50) - made with the same pizza dough, this was disappointing, especially for the price. The dough is better when cooked thin, and has enough heft to support a lot more filling than what this had. Been searching for a really good calzone since my college days, and this wasn't it. There's some good online articles about the trio that are the proprietors. It's a good story, adding to the mystique/origin of locally owned pizza joints and doing a good job of explaining why we should be supporting this business. They don't offer pizza by the slice, so need to bring some friends and have pizza and beer on-site, and devour that great pizza. Note: I carried the pizza box (along with the sandwiches in my backpack) while walking back to my home...got more than one shoutout across the street from local denizens asking for/demanding the leftovers...either word about the quality of this pizza has gotten around or the homeless are becoming even more brazen. read more

Dirty Pepperoni absolutely delivered. We grabbed a pepperoni pizza to enjoy poolside, and it couldn't have been a better combo. The crust had a perfect crisp with just the right amount of chew, the pepperoni was loaded edge to edge and crisped up nicely, and the cheese and sauce were well balanced without being overly greasy. You can tell they put care into their pizza, and the quality really stands out. Whether you're grabbing a quick slice or taking a whole pie to enjoy with friends, it's definitely worth checking out. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu. Highly recommend! read more
