This pizza was everything and I can see why it's so popular. Got takeout for a whole Pepperoni and White Pie. It was ready on time by the time we got there. Crust on both pizza was the perfect balance of crisp and thiness. Pepperoni - Not too oily or salty. Super generous with the pepperoni. They use smaller pepperoni which I always prefer. White Pie - I'm usually not a fan of pizza with no meat, but this was an exception. Incredibly delicious and I didn't feel like it was missing anything else. read more

Tried Little Coyote for the first time after stopping by the brewery next door. Kept it simple and went with a pepperoni slice to start. Overall, it was solid--sauce had good flavor, cheese was decent, and the dough was nice. Nothing mind-blowing, but definitely a respectable slice. My only issue was the balance--there was a bit too much cheese for the crust, so even folding it New York-style, it didn't hold up well and kind of fell apart. A little more crisp on the bottom would've made a big difference. I also tried their Sicilian grandma-style focaccia pizza, and honestly, that was a huge letdown. It had this dusty, raw flour taste right away, was dry and spongy, and way overpowered with Parmesan. It just didn't come together at all--pretty disappointing, especially for the price. I've had frozen pizza that tasted better. Ended up just picking at the cheese to salvage something. On the plus side, the service was friendly and the space itself is chill--nice casual vibe with a few tables inside and outside to hang out. All in all, the regular slice was decent, but the focaccia pizza really missed the mark for me. Probably not a spot I'd go back to. read more

I recently ordered delivery and was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the stromboli was. It arrived hot, well packaged, and was a very generous portion. Loaded with cheese and full of flavor, it definitely hit the spot. The tomato sauce wasn't my favorite as it was a bit on the watery side, but honestly the stromboli had more than enough flavor to make up for it. The location itself is pretty small, but it seems like a solid spot for a quick and easy pickup. read more

Wanted to give this place another try since I was in the area & could have done without it. The calzone was really forgettable. Skimped out on the sauce for the portion size. Never thought something could be too cheesy but it was too much soo much grease. The ratio of meat to cheese was so off. Little to no flavor. Their pizza is also very basic and lacking in flavor. The wait time to get our calzone with 40 minutes on a Tuesday night. Not a very welcoming atmosphere. read more

Great pizza spot on 4th street. One size pizza size 16" plus they have slices. They also carry salads, beer and wine which you can order by the bottle or glass. It's a fairly small space but they do have booths and a few tables outside. Pizza is excellent. You order at counter, find a spot and they bring it to you. read more

service at this location is a 0/5. friend and I go in with the intention of buying a slice of pizza each, the worker at the register said they were "out of slices and squares." so naturally, we thought our only other option was to buy a full-sized pizza since they were "out." we were waiting for over 30 minutes and see other customers walking out with their slices of pizza. after asking the worker at the register, the only thing they said was "sorry, your pizza is already prepped." why wouldn't you mention that you have slices coming in 10 minutes instead of saying you were out and making us buy a full pizza? ridiculous customer service and just plain weird. 40+ minutes later and we get our pizza, I went to grab a slice and the entire surface of the pizza slid off--cheese, sauce, toppings.... and this is what I was left with. not exactly what you want to see after the long wait and the service you just experienced. we love to support local businesses, but experiences like these make it difficult to want to return. pizza was good though. read more

I waited 2 hours for a pizza that was never put in the oven. Saw over 4 ppl get a pizza before me and they ordered after me. I asked for a refund just to get a partial refund. Disappointed and hungry. read more

lil coyote is not what it used to be. the ingredients seem much cheaper and skimpier, the pizza has a lot less oil in a bad way, the dough has changed. and 3 hours after eating it, my stomach is already not feeling so great. in the old times during their heyday, i would have eaten 3 slices and keep yearning for more.... even when im full. this time, it was just a big meh. i've heard that they've gone downhill and they have. big time. and the generic sounding replies from the management doesn't help their case either when i'm looking over their recent reviews will not be going back there again. so sad because they used to be really good. read more

Great pizza! bad parking, in fact there is no parking. You have to drive around until you find a parking or pay $5/hr at a parking lot down the street. Service was meh... they are so focused on serving the take out pizzas they forgot to make our second pizza, so we sat there and watched our kids enjoy their pizza. No one came to tell us they forgot our pizza, no apologies, no one cared. Not sure if we will be coming back, the place is constantly handing out pizzas to go and is very busy. Dine in pizzas take over 30 minutes to be served. read more

Yummy times at the Little Coyote! We strolled in while showing some of our of town family crew the sights and sounds _AND TASTES_ of 4th Street... and guess what we got hungry!! We strolled in NEEDING a slice or two and Yo! we got 'em! They heated em up and they were super warm and melty - family was stoked! Cruised outside to eat and delightful parklet in the shade, just wham! Immediate fun and mow-down show down! read more

So I've seen this place on Instagram and the video look phenomenal. Unfortunately that's not what i experienced. Walking in it was my first time the cashier really didn't help much. But I'm a basic girl so I just ordered a pepperoni slice and the white pie slice because it sound good. The inside is very cute hipster trendy. My only issue which is kind of a major one is my pizza was cold. I order I believe the granny sicilian slice so I believe that a really thick bread like focaccia and it was hard and cold. My white pie slice was thin crust and also cold. I ultimately just left I was going to work right after just wanted a quick lunch. What I didn't understand was the girl said the wait would be about 15 minutes and our food took 2 minutes so I believe she just gave me the food as is instead of warming it up. read more

I am going to sound like a hater, but not to Little Coyote specifically! I am not understanding the hype around pizza, especially expensive pizza, in Long Beach. I got two pizzas from Little Coyote to try: one pizza with bacon, onions, pineapple, and pickled jalapenos and one with sausage and mushrooms. Good! I don't think it's entirely worth the four times price as, say, Domino's... Maybe I just don't love pizza like that. I think Little Coyote is good, but not worth the price point. There has also been talk about a change in leadership which has resulted in the quality of the ingredients noticeable decreasing. If someone I knew wanted to get pizza at a non-fast casual chain, I would be happy to try Little Coyote again, but it's not something that I am itching to go back to or something that has turned me away from ordering a cheaper delivery pizza. read more

I walked in at 5:22 and ordered an expensive $30 pizza that was supposed to be ready between 5:52 and 6:02. I went to the counter at 6:02 and was told it would be 8-10 minutes longer. At 6:12 they said it would be a few more minutes. I canceled the order. The women at the counter were nice enough but it's bad service for a pizza that costs $30. Lots of other cheaper and good options around. read more

We came for a Tuesday lunch and were the only ones dining in when we ordered. We were told that our whole pizza would take around 20 minutes, but it ended up being 40 minutes. The BYO pizza costs more than their signature pizzas, but they do load up on the toppings. The individual slices are the better alternative if you're in a rush or just want something for yourself. Our individual slices came with a little bit of pepper flakes on it, if you don't eat spicy then you can ask them to omit. The restroom didn't have soap or paper towels. They have indoor and outdoor seating. The street parking in the front is paid, but in the neighborhoods they're free. read more

Love walking over here and taking my pizza next store to watch live music at The Vine. I am a Margarita connoisseur and this one keeps me coming back. Thin crust, fresh basil, quality cheese, and lots of flavory sauce - I mean dripping ! 24$ for a large to feed the two of us with a decent local beer and wine selection. Dog friendly The only negative was the bathroom was a mess! Clogged sink, dirty floor, and no paper towels. Lucky i am no health inspector because they would have been docked for sure. Won't keep me from coming back though ! read more

I want to like this place more, but they're so maddeningly inconsistent. I've had some great pizzas from here, but also so some so-so pizzas, and a few truly terrible ones. The crust on the pie I ordered last night was one of the worst I've ever eaten - hard, dry, and absolutely no chew. It was more like a cracker than a pizza dough. When you're spending $30+ for a pizza, it shouldn't be a crapshoot like this; I think I'm probably done ordering there. read more

Always delicious. Always fresh. Takes about 20 min for whole pizza to bake. Which is enough time to go to the cheese shop or natural wine bar a few doors down. Their weekend specials are always fun but the white pie is our go to. The crust is garlicky and delicious too. The workers are so nice too. They provide plates, peppers, and cheese as well! read more

tl;dr the highly recommended white pie doesn't disappoint, although the doughy crust and gummy Sicilian square leave room for improvement Is it fair to include a Long Beach restaurant in the best-of-Los Angeles lists? Plenty of pizza connoisseurs seem to think so, and Little Coyote is routinely ranked among LA's top pies. Here, New York-style pizzas meet unpretentious drinks in a laid-back, takeout-friendly setting. A mosaic-style, gold-chained dog mural catches the eye as you drive past Little Coyote's narrow storefront. Outside, a trim street-ery is bounded by large potted succulents. The interior feels both minimalist and effortlessly cool. The left wall is painted with a black-and white mural wave pattern, while the right wall is lined with shelves of beverages and pizza boxes. A line of off-white wooden booths stretches to the cashier counter in the far back. Warmly lit globe lights hang from the high ceilings, while soft rock never interrupts the communal chatter. My partner and I arrived for weekday dinner and placed our order immediately. We opted for a Pepperoni Grandma Square and The White Pie with added sausage. Within 5 minutes, a baseball mitt-sized square slice and a carafe of water arrived at our table. The slice was thick and doughy like focaccia, more Sicilian-style than the prototypical grandma slice. The pepperoni was moderately abundant and enjoyably crispy, but the cheese layer was only modestly warm and regrettably gummy. We ended up asking for a side of marinara to salvage the otherwise dry slice. In comparison, our white pizza (which arrived 20 minutes later) was lip-smackingly delicious. As I peeked into the box, I was immediately hit with the aroma of garlic. No ingredient felt out of place across the dizzying array of rich flavors. The sausage was evenly distributed across the pie, with the perfect portion for each bite. The heavy helping of toppings far outweighed the floppy, paper-thin crust. The cornicone was doughy and soggy, reminiscent of Olive Garden breadsticks, serving as a reasonable conduit for the tasty sauces. The staff were friendly, and countless takeout customers came and went over the course of our meal. Our bill totalled $37, and the lot could reasonably have fed 3 ravenous appetites. While Little Coyote's pizza may not be worth a dedicated rush-hour drive down the 710, the signature white pie is a strong bet to be a delicious, party-pleasing meal if already in Long Beach. read more

After touring the Queen Mary, we were starving and stumbled across Little Coyote, one of our best choices that day. We ordered the pepperoni pizza. The crust was crispy but fluffy, the cheese was super melty, and the pepperoni had those perfect little crispy edges that I love. The vibe is super chill, and there is some outdoor seating for a relaxed lunch. It felt like a local gem, not some overhyped spot. I recommend it if you are looking for a solid pizza after sightseeing or want to treat yourself. read more

Today I went to get a grandma slice, cause I was craving one, got there at 11:45am, closed. Check the sign: we open at 11! Ok. So I came back later in the evening at 7:22pm, prime pizza hours. Cause I can't control my grandma slice craving, ordered a white pie slice and a grandma slice. The grandma slice was COLD IN THE MIDDLE. Completely undercooked. And the white pie slice was just ok. And the staff was rude. This place used to be good not sure what happened. Pizza is not as good as it used to be and service is bad. Little Coyote fell off. Why bother, not coming back here. read more

Food is great! Service is terrible. Wish they were more organized. Also took almost 40 plus minutes for a pepperoni pizza.

I was craving pizza, this place came up and boy did it not disappoint! I just got a pepperoni slice which was very reasonably priced and also got a side of what seems like their homemade ranch. I also got a side of jalapeños which took the slice to the next level. The wait wasn't long, I joined their reward program because I knew I definitely was coming back. My favorite thing is how cold their drinks are, the refrigerator has them so cold my soda just tasted crispier. The overall ambience was very chill, their outdoor seating was nice too. I can't wait to go back and try their grandma square slice! read more

Little Coyote is unapologetically Long Beach and I'm here for that. I shared the antipasto salad ($7) and the small portion was more than enough. It comes with provolone, soppressata, garbanzo, artichoke, red onion, pepperoncinis with iceberg salad. There was definitely more toppings than salad, but that's how I like my salad sometimes. I absolutely loved their rendition of an antipasto salad - it was tart and creamy with plenty of good textures. Since we already had salad, we naturally went with the meat lovers pie ($26) This did not disappoint. It comes topped with pepperoni, Italian sausage, bacon, mozzarella and red sauce. I love a good meat lovers pizza, but I don't like when it's too, too meaty. 3 is the perfect amount of meat love. I also like that the crust at Little Coyote is crispy but has a little chew. You consistently get a v good pizza pie regardless of your topping choice. This is the best neighborhood spot to have a casual pizza dinner. read more

I will definitely order again. I went once previously with friends and sat outside. I was more focused on our time with friends than the food. This time we ordered for delivery... We ordered a margarita pizza. Crust was one of the best around. It had a good amount of sauce. I'm from Chicago and we put more sauce on pizzas than most people so I like that. That said, I don't think a margarita pizza should even have sauce. Should be sliced tomatoes. There was plenty of basil (which was a little too burnt and should have been added later in the cooking process), a little short on the fresh mozz, but overall it was an enjoyable pie. Everything else was fantastic including the phone service when I had a question about the website menu. We ordered 2 Grandma's squares as well. They were slightly undercooked, but my wife really liked that since the bread was so soft. It is also less oily than typical focaccia bread which was actually nice. With the crust being so good, I'm looking forward to ordering again but a more tradition pepperoni or something with the regular cheese. read more
