The ambiance in this place is amazing, very romantic feel in the dining area. The cashier that took my order was super personable and made my group feel comfortable. The food was really good! We ordered a 1/2 and 1/2 margarita and pepperoni, didn't like the shredded basil (I prefer whole leaf) but all in all the taste was really good read more

I don't know how this place isn't above 4 stars. Gave dough to the kids to play with. Pizza is AMZING. It looks as good as the pictures. People are very nice and check in. 10/10 read more

Great service & great food. Recommend the godfather pizza and a rasta salad. Dining area isn't super big so you're best bet might be takeout or delivery. read more

Went after the kid spent a day at the beach. I was starving and saw Gina's while walking around the neighborhood. I checked the yelp review and felt it was worth a visit. We went in around 7:20pm on a Friday night and were quickly seated. Good thing because 20 minutes later there was a line and no seats. Since the door was open, I was cold and asked my son to get a jacket from the car for me. They noticed my ask and turned the heater on for me above my seat. That was very nice and accommodating. The service was really good and they were all very helpful. Anyway, ordered some wings, lasagna and a medium pizza. The wings and lasagna came out pretty quickly and the pizza took about an additional 10 minutes. We enjoyed the wings a lot. We didn't eat too much lasagna because we wanted to wait for the pizza. When the pizza came, we each had a slice and were full from there. The medium pizza was bigger than expected and was pretty tasty. We ended up eating the lasagna and pizza the next day and they both tasted even better then. My son said the pizza reminded him of pizza we had in Chicago. I noticed others adding arugula on top of their pizza. Wish I'd tried that. Next time. I'd give them a 4.5 but since I can't do that, I'll round up to a 5. read more

Service was just as terrible as the food. The place wasn't clean enough either. Who still goes to this place

Huge slice and it was actually really good! The undercarriage was nice and crisp. Definitely recommend trying it, though it might be a one-and-done for me. Around $15 per slice, so definitely pretty pricey. read more

If you like bland pizza that tastes like bread I would recommend this place. I ordered a slice of pepperoni pizza and paid $9 and was supposed to get 62 cents change back and the overweight approximately 50 year old male working the register said "you're good". I would tip if my food is good. In this case it wasn't and I regret even giving up a 62 cent tip as the cashier did not give me back my change. I prefer a pizza with flavor. This pizza has a thick crust that tastes like bland dough with a hint of pepperoni and cheese. Don't let the smell fool you. I kept taking bites trying to figure out why something that smells so good tastes so bland. The pizza is a 3.5 outa 10. You can get better pizza at Costco. read more

Gina's Pizza - The pizza I tried but couldn't finish. $8.38 + $0.62 tip I didn't want to give. - Pizza Near Me - Corona Del Mar, California

First time here. It's OK I'm glad they have lunch specials but pretty pricey. In my opinion I got the side salad and a slice of pizza with a cup of water came out to $13.99 For every topping you add it's $2.99 that's stupid expensive for one slice of pizza and a topping I should have just stayed with the cheese I just don't think it's worth the price. Glad I tried it once, that's where it will end for me. read more

Love the food ... the pizzas never disappoint and the staff working there are very kind people!

Gina's Pizza was served at an afternoon gathering and I thought it was good. The pizza crust was chewy, the red pizza sauce was flavorful (and not overly spicy) and the cheese tasted fresh. I tried the cheese-pizza and the pepperoni pizza and both of them were good. I didn't have anything to do with ordering the pizza, so I don't have any comments about the cost or service. This review is for the pizza only. read more

Gina is an absolute Angel !!!!!! Very attentive to guests and remembers people by their names ! The ambience here is very warm and welcoming ! Can't wait to go back for the pizza read more

decent pizza but not worth the wait. they quote you a certain time and you can basically double it We were waiting for more than twice the time they quoted us for and went to check and it turns out the pizza was in the back and missed. The guy blamed missed communication between the back and front of house.. Definetly not good processes from management. It was also missing toppings read more

Be prepared to wait after you arrive for online orders. Service for pick orders is hit and miss.

Pizza is probably the most subjective food there is to review between all the different styles/types. Gina's makes a good pizza. The sauce is not sweet like a lot of the commercial places. Toppings are under the cheese instead of on top. They have a nice crust. If you're looking for some indoor seating, they have a very small seating area with table service. It's really more of a covered patio than dining room. If it's chilly outside, they have one heater hanging from the ceiling. The one thing I noticed was they do a heck of a takeout business, so there's a lot of people that stop here to get a pizza. They've been in business since 1975. You have to be doing something right to stay in business for 50 years when your an independent pizza restaurant read more

Amazing Pizza salad was so crisp....nice staff. Good service came here with the Orange County Grand Jury

Delicious pizza, great customer service, and kid friendly environment! Would def recommend for a casual dining experience, also it's in walking distance to little corona Del Mar beach! read more

The food is good (especially the meatball sandwich), but this place is a dump. Thirty years ago I lived two blocks from here and ate here all the time. I'm 99% certain that they've not updated it since then. The inside looks like they just gave up. It's dank, and hot, and the windows don't open, the tables don't line up height-wise (which makes it annoying to put two tables together for a party of four), and the floors are gross and actually have a slope to them. The inside is what you'd expect from a low budget restaurant in a college town that caters to college kids on a tight budget. Oddly for a beach community restaurant: no outdoor seating (though there's room for it). Stated another way: Get your food "to go". read more

all day I've been thinking about the rasta salad and finally, I ordered it for them to not give me pasta in my Rasta salad. I cannot explain how excited I was to be so let down and it has beyond ruined my day. politely, I am devastated give me my pasta. #wheremypastaat read more

Great pizza- and this is coming from a New Yorker! I don't know why I haven't been here since the location across from UCI closed but I've been missing out. The pizza came out in 20 minutes flat on a Saturday evening which is excellent in my book when just about every table was occupied. Sam provided excellent customer service, going above and beyond. We look forward to coming back soon read more

So it's been over 5 yrs from my last review. Update.... The place hasn't changed even after Covid like so many other establishments have. This time we took my family along with us. Son, Daughter in Law, and two grandkids. I wasn't too hungry so I just ordered a slice of cheese pizza knowing I'll feast off everyone else's entrees. Service - 5 Stars, so attentive Wife's meal - Sicilian Chicken Fettucine Alfredo 5 Stars. Noodles were perfectly cooked Al dente. Garlic Alfredo was yummy and it came with 4 slices of Garlic Bread. Son's Meal - Chicken Palermo Alfredo pizza 3 Stars (for me) crust was perfect but Alfredo on pizza just isn't my thing Daughter - Maui Mamma pizza 5 Stars. Standard Hawaiian with pineapple, Canadian bacon, plus regular bacon The fun item was the BiggaSlice of Pizza for my Grandson. 14" thin crust slice. Add toppings that you like, for him, Pepperoni and Black Olives. It was bigger then his head read more

I KNOW THIS IS LONG! But it's worth the read! Sometimes the experience at a restaurant isn't always about the food! Yes! It's important to get good food for your hard earned money! But sometimes it's the employees that TRULY makes a BIG difference! I had a late work day. I'm single and didn't feel like cooking because I was tired. I called a single friend of mine and he joined me for dinner. It is Taco Tuesday! But I wasn't in the mood for Mexican food. It seems like I had eaten it too many times this past week. I was REALLY having a craving for Italian food! Spaghetti in particular! I told my buddy, and he suggested Gina's Pizza and Pasta in Corona del Mar! So off we went! When we got there, it looked like they were closing the dining room. (Chairs on the tables) Ugh! We didn't feel like getting it To-Go! Well... That's where "THE" employee comes in... DAVE TODD was nice enough to let us sit and eat! He was beyond kind and truly made us feel like it was no problem! AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! Dave is a SUPER nice guy! You really do feel like family here! No kidding! Oh yeah... AND... The spaghetti was off the charts! It was DELICIOUS! Pink sauce, sausage, and garlic toast! Yum! ALL the employees were incredibly nice! And I mean ALL of them! One guy was going home for the night and when he was leaving, he waved to my friend and I and said: "Good night, guys! Thanks for coming in!" Blew me away! Who does that these days? It seems like customer service is a thing of the past! But not at Gina's! I'll be back again and again and again and again and again! I saw SO MANY great things on the menu that I want to try! A great BIG THANKS to the owners of this fine establishment for hiring amazing people! read more

During lunch hours they have a special for either a slice of pizza and a drink or a BiggaSlice and a drink. I don't think the special is that great of a deal, especially since neither pizza comes with any toppings. It's either 69 cents or a dollar per topping, depending on pizza size. The interior of the restaurant is cute and has several seating options. The tables were a little dirty and I'd recommend the restaurant to keep an eye on that. Both pizzas that we got were good. We got one BiggaSlice and one regular Pizza Slice, both with individual toppings. I enjoyed the eggplant, broccoli, and Italian sausage on my regular slice. My partner got pepperoni and bacon bites. The meat was a little burnt in some places but overall very good. read more

Was looking forward to getting some good pizza. Stoped by 30 min ago, a young girl was cleaning already. My wife asked if they were still open, she turned to ask another employee and said darn. We got the hint they weren't trying to serve guests so we decided to leave. I hope she gets trained on how to speak to guests. Won't be back. read more

The pizza slices are ginormous! My thumb to pinkie measures 7" and my slice was at least 3-4" longer. Very much worth it. I'd like to try the meatball sandwich next time and order a full size pizza. The staff was very friendly. read more

I've eaten here many times before but not recently. I stopped today for a dinner of cheese ravioli in meat sauce and a root beer soda. The guy I ordered from was very nice and accommodating, no complaints there. He brought my meal a short time later and it was horrible. It looked like it was left over from the 4th of July weekend five days ago. It did not seem fresh at all. The raviolis were soggy, limp, and very stale tasting. The meat sauce had the consistency of runny crap. The food was barely warm. I'm sorry to have to leave such a dreadful description but I've had much better food at this restaurant. I left with my meal uneaten and wondering if Gina's had been sold to some third world entity. Oh, and by the was, my fountain drink was flat with little flavor. read more

Their salads, are decent and ample. The italian dressing is good. For a west coast pizza joint, the pizza is ok. Service is always friendly and attentive - particularly the one on harbor blvd in Costa Mesa. read more

Literally the worst pizza I have had since high school cafeteria days! Didn't finish it and threw it out. Crust is like cardboard. Almost $10 for 1 slice of pizza. So many good places to eat in CDM, skip this one! read more

Gina's is my go to spot. I'm not a pizza person however when I crave it this is the place. They prepare it as I like it no red sauce garlic olio sauce. Made to perfection. Customer service really needs to improve. Dear owner please train your employees how to meditate, handle conflict resolution and own it when they are the ones who cause the mix up, delay or mistake. Make it right , the customer should owlways be accommodated, wither discount , free cookies something. We are your bread and butter, without us you would be shut down. Every time I go I have the same problem as most who post here the orders are never ready, and others are prioritized before others. With only apologies. I ordered a personal pizza stated it would be about ten minutes. I waited 30. People who oelreded after me got theirs. I had to keep asking and finally after the 5th time they said it's coming in five. The atmosphere is cozy, good for dates and friends. Clean. However the restroom needs help. Pick up parking. Located in the mothers shopping center. read more

Soooo good! Great pizza, especially when it's right out of the oven! Their wings and pasta are also good.

We've ordered pizza from here for years. Usually call in. But this time used Uber Eats. Not sure if they use lesser quality ingredients when it's thru UE but this time the pizza was awful. Crust was dry and tasteless. I thought it was frozen supermarket pizza. Might try again but this experience was awful. read more

Went to Gina's for my first time yesterday, and I left very happy. My wifes family swears by this place, and they did not disappoint. Tiny little hole in the wall, cozy seating, and great service.

Always our families favorite pizza! We come from Seattle a couple times a year and we always look forward to Gina's! We always get take out. So I don't know what it's like to eat in the restaurant. Service is always friendly, pizzas have always been correct, fresh and hot, prices haven't changed much over the 10 years we have been coming. My favorite part about Gina's? They don't try to make their pizza "interesting" or "bougie" they just make traditional pies and they do them so good!! When you are craving pizza and you imagine what you want- cheesy, saucy, meats, Italian, on top of a perfectly thick crust- that's what they give you at Gina's. read more
