Good pizza and food but too expensive won't be going back . $16 bucks for a 6 ounce glass of house wine . It's a pizza place not a restaurant. read more

Sacrilicious! "Sacred and delicious" :) Came on Sunday evening . Made reservations of course. Parking was plenty on the lot. When we walked in, the joint was packed. I walked up to hostess and check in. 5 mins later we were seated. I did quick look around, good vibes all around, family time and one on one. Our waitress came, she was friendly, went over a couple things we asked. We decided to go with meatballs for appetizers, salad, double pepperoni with added mushrooms, and I got beer of course haha. Meatballs and salads came out within minutes. Meatballs was great, not too hot. I took one bite of the salad and it was fresh. Beer was cold and tasty. Pizza came in no time, hot like a pie. When I fold the pizza in half it made that sweet crunchy sound that only real pizza lovers know. The taste was delicious, good blend of pepperoni, mushroom and cheese. Of course someone wanted to try dessert too in the end. Put this on your list folks, a must try. read more

We really like the sausage and kale pizza from here. I think everything else is fine. The employees seem to be nice and we haven't had a bad experience so far. It does sort of have a nickel-and-dime vibe sometimes, especially when we're asked if we want ranch with the appetizer and then see a charge for it on the bill. read more

the moment i made the reservation you could tell that this place is very homey and accommodating their servers were friendly, we came for a party of 11 and orders were on time. food was great, their chicken wings especially their Gochuchang wings are so good, the plains ones are very tasty and crispy. After dinner we had custard dont go without tasting the PB chocolate its so good. Shout out to their Manager Peter very professional and friendly with their customers. read more

We've been anticipating Mooney's pizza for a while, so we were happy to see it's open for business. We came here for dinner on a Thursday night. We made reservations for 7pm but arrived early to see if we could be seated earlier and we had no problems. We ordered a large Supreme pizza to share. It came out piping hot and freshly made. The pizza itself is good, crispy dough, fresh toppings. They were generous with their toppings and cheese. We also got BB Banana custard frozen dessert. My first time ever and it was delicious! Very creamy and velvety like a smooth soft serve ice cream. Service was excellent, our server is sweet and tentative. They seem to be high school students working here which is nice. There were a lot of staff members so service was impeccable. Ambiance is nice, I like the nostalgic pizza joint vibe. Lots of booths and tables to enjoy your food. There's also a front room for private parties if you have a large group. We definitely enjoyed the experience. read more

Came here last week with my son, daughter in law and grandson and had a very very dinner. We started with a nicely prepared Caesar Salad and the Bread with Calabrian Chile Honey Butter. I would definitely order both those items again. We also had an order of their wings with Gochujang BBQ sauce which was another winner. We ended up order two pizzas with one being the Ragu that was just ok, and the other being the Fried Eggplant that was very good. To you it off we all tried the Pistachio Custard that was a nice end to the meal. The place does get busy so you may want to make a reservation. They do have a big parking lot but parking can still get tight. As for the staff they are all very friendly and welcoming. They also do a really good job of keeping the place neat and clean. read more

This review is a little late because I went during their opening in March, oops! Mooney's is good. It's a pizza joint trying to be an elevated neighborhood spot. The decor is classy yet casual. There's a cute photobooth and play area for the kids. As for food, I was super excited to try their Al Pastor pizza, a Mexican-American take on a pineapple pizza. Unfortunately, by the time I sat for dinner, they were out of most of their menu, including the al pastor. I am NOT docking them for points for running out of things on opening weekend. It's so hectic I'm sure, and it's a lot to have to figure out. They were able to make the pizza with pork belly instead of al pastor though. It was pretty good, but honestly forgettable. I also think that their menu is pretty expensive for their portions and offerings. I know they were running low on items, but the toppings were definitely skimpy. I would like to come back to try a couple of more things from their menu, including their extensive variety of beers.  PRO TIP: save room for dessert and get fresh churros from the very nice lady outside at Churros Juquilita read more

Damn this was some really great pizza and wings. We did the pan supreme pizza (pepperoni, bell peppers, onions, and sausage) such a good choice. The bread in the pizza dough was the best part, just a really good quality pizza. Also I loved that they served us the pizza and it was still steaming hot.. we also did an order of the buffalo wings which were easily a 10/10. The wings came out crispy, but when u bit into them they were super tender and perfectly cooked. Also the buffalo sauce and homemade ranch was excellent. Def will be going back. read more

I really love this addition to LB! I heard about it from my mom so we came in on a Saturday night. It was busy (rightfully so) but we found seats at the bar. My pizza was amazing. Pepperoni with ricotta whip. 10/10. For me though honestly the highlight was the CUSTARD! 10000/10. This nights custard was like a coconut pina colada with passion fruit (or something similar) I have thought about this custard like many many times. It was thick, creamy and the flavors were wonderful. I'm excited for when I inevitably come back. Restaurant has the most badass custom lamps that remind me of old Pizza Hut vintage lamps. Overall I can tell time and a lot of thought/intention went into this restaurant. I also really love how the owner posts himself to Instagram a lot. I love to see a biz owner who is THAT invested in his business and to see the face of the company in the day to days that require a successful business. Keep doin your thang Mooney's!! I'll see you soon. read more

This was my second visit to Mooney's, and you can compare it with my first review. This time, we tried the pepperoni pan pizza, which was nicely made. The dough had a slightly undercooked, bread-like texture, the sauce had good flavor, and we really enjoyed the pepperoni. read more

Finally got a reservation at Mooney's and it did not disappoint! For a Wednesday night it was honestly pretty lively. Our rezi was for their dining room which is a little quieter but great for babies/high chairs. To order we got the house bread, cesar salad, and two pizzas: pineapple specialty and regular cheese. Appetizers were on point! Legit cesar salad with fresh dressing. House bread stole the show. Pizzas, we actually liked the standard cheese better! It wasn't super cheesy but went perfect with ranch. BOMB crust. Pineapple sounds better than it is--the salsa just doesn't feel right. Doesn't help that it came out waaay later than the cheese. Lastly custard is delicious. Overall would definitely recommend this place! It can be busy but pizza and menu options are unmatched! read more

Notable things. The service was great. Our waitress was really sweet and nice. The main area was just SO LOUD. We ended up sitting outside and they accommodated that which was great. If you want to sit inside though and are sensitive to loud noises I would not suggest it. I've never had to change seating from the shear amount of noise and yelling before. The food was really good. We started with the Caesar salad which was so so good. Creamy and rich without being heavy. The pan pizza is INSANE. the crust is fluffy and thick and chewy. Absolutely recommend. We got the ragu pizza and added burnt pepperoni cups which is a must. They end up such a nice crunchy texture on the rim. And the ricotta is delicious. The other pizza is a pineapple pastor which is really different. It's sweet and tasty but don't get this is you're feeling something more akin to pizza. It's like bbq pizza with a different twist and sauce. Still good. Just different. The custard to me was nothing special and really I could do without. If you get any red sauce time though, you will not be disappointed. We also tried the meatballs and I wanted to lick the plate clean. The red twice was so flavorful and hearty. Give this place a try if you're a pizza lover. Definitely worth it. read more

First time in and came here on a whim on a Friday at 4:30. Happily found some seats at the bar and were greeting by a sleuth of friendly and helpful staff. Since we were going out after and didn't want leftovers, took the advice of our bartender and got a small pizza and an app. Perfect amount. We started with meatballs. Super flavorful but the temp wasn't as hot as you'd expect for fresh out of the oven. Would have loved for them to check with a thermometer before serving, but they were still delicious. Pizza: went with the Fancy Cheese. OMFG! This was incredible and a pizza I will be craving daily. The bottom crust had a perfect crunch when you bite into it and the outer crust, pillowy and a perfect vessel to scoop up a side of their pesto ranch. (Thanks to the staff for that rec too!) The only let down (aside from luke warm meatballs) was my beer glass. For a place that prides itself of beer and being owned by a fellow cicerone (I'm one too), was that the glass was not "beer clean". No, there should not be bubbles on the glass because that's actually microscopic dirt that the beer is clinging to. The space is so welcoming and has a great flow to it. The parking is abundant. Absolutely will be back! read more

I was craving pizza & my friend @cheftiffanythomas suggested Mooney's Pizza. Before hand she let me know this place is packed and she booked reservations. We shared a combo between 3 people total, a Cesar salad, & meatballs. Everything was savory and filling. The ambiance of this place is rather unique as well. If you crossed an episode from the hit series Cheers with a 1980's Pizza Hut; you would get Mooney's Pizza. It's rather nostalgic for the millennial crowd. With reservations we did wait about 10 to 15 mins. Keep that in mind if you're going without. We noticed right away it was crowded, and people come here in large groups as well. We were vicariously enjoying the view of the pipping hot pizzas walking out from the steamy kitchen. Everything looked so good we were already making plans on what to order for our second time around. The lighting in this establishment is very much relaxed and pleasing. Right away I noticed that the lamps were similar to those from the 1980's Pizza Hut restaurants with the stained glass. The Supreme Pan Pizza we ordered was packed with plenty of vegetables, the edges are nice and crispy as well. Though we loved the pizza we would have liked it with a bit more char on top, like the classic. We were also craving a plain sparkling water, such as a San Pellegrino, so far it has t been added to the menu. They have plenty of prebiotic sodas, beer, non-alcoholic beer, etc. The Cesar salad is fresh with plenty of romaine and grated fresh parm; with just a bit more pepper and bread crumbs it would be perfection. The meatballs were amazing, and drenched with the right amount of sauce. We absolutely loved this new Pizza Tavern & we're looking forward to coming back. read more

Overall great experience as they were getting up and running. Inside is very pizza parlor vibes It was extremely warm inside and I had to ask for ice water multiple times since we were being given tepid water and our poor waiter finally gave us a carafe full!! Overall really kind and accommodating. The pizza was great! Chewy crust, great toppings. I would bring others back in the future! Highly recommend ending the meal with soft serve. I had cherry and chocolate swirl! read more

Went in tonight for dinner, busy so we opted to take a seat on the patio to skip the wait for a table inside. Chris was our server and made the whole night fun and enjoyable! Ordered the Chicago Salad, Tomato Pie & Potato (added pancetta-amazing choice) and asked for them to be well done. Really enjoyed the flavor & balance of both the red and white sauces. On Chris' recommendation we tried the Churro Custard with a side of hot honey! Can't wait to go back for another amazing date night read more

Brought my extended family for a great post-Friday night wedding brunch on Saturday at their 11 AM opening. Greeted warmly, in a family friendly environment, extremely comfortable. And then, we dove into the terrific menu! Needed to start with some fried cheese Kurds (so fresh, served with marinara & various ranch flavors) as well as Buffalo Wings spun with a GOOD authentic Buffalo sauce. Then, PIZZAS. Our server suggested pepperoni for kids, a sausage & ??? in a white sauce that was so well balanced by the flavors, both delicate & bold. Then, the specialty pizza of the day, prochetta and peaches with dabbles of ricotta! It's was almost decadent with the creamy sweetness and salt. On top of all this, a rotating 21 tap bar of beer selections from all around world along with a deep/wide selection of delicious wines. Tons of free parking. Service was outstanding. Ya gotta try this spot! read more

Very busy pizza tavern in a corner location that attracts a lot of people: couples and families, friends who want to hang out. The menu seems pared down but there are many options for customized pizza. We usually have had to wait a few minutes for seats especially around the 7pm mark when everyone seems to be getting their dinner. Indoor booths, tables and a banquette can accommodate a lot of group sizes, also has outdoor seating. Appetizers all good : squeaks or cheese curds either your choice of sauce, chicken wings (8 to a plate) your choice of buffalo or plain plus dipping sauce- we usually get ranch. Prior to the recent scare about contamination of lettuce, we would share a regular plate of Caesar salad. We chose to have Brussels sprouts instead- a very nicely toasted plate with nuts and balsamic vinegar dressing. We have been here a few times now, service is usually attentive and friendly. Have had the cheese, pepperoni and supreme classic pizzas - all come out piping hot from the oven, lots of toppings are quite delicious. Also recommend the fancy cheese pizza , sausage and chard and most recently prosciutto with peaches. There is a regularly changing menu for frozen custard , if you leave room for it! You can pay your bill by scanning a QR code on the receipt, another Convenience. Clean and very cold restrooms , just right for hiding out from the noise and hot kitchen. read more

Mooney's Pizza is a new pizzeria on the border of East Long Beach, Los Alamitos, Cypress, and Hawaiian Gardens and it offers really good pizza in a space that's evokes the vibes of 90s pizza parlors. The pizzas are top quality as you have a nice buttery, glassy crust with a really nice bite/chew that can only come from a fully developed fermentation. I ordered a 14" pan size of their "fancy cheese" pizza, which came with a rich tomato sauce, fresh basil, and high moisture cheese. In the past five years, a bunch of really great pizzerias have set up in Long Beach; however, what's unique about this place is that you can dine in here with your family at their full-service restaurant. On Sunday night it was quite busy; however, we snagged a same-day reservation on Resy for 8:30pm. For appetizers, I also ordered their house bread and meatballs. The bread was crispy and airy and was served with an addictive calabrian chili honey butter. The meatballs were juicy from their mix of chuck, shortrib, brisket, and pancetta. The important thing is that the food was actually as good as it sounded on paper. Ultimately, that's the reason that I think that this is a great pizza spot! They have great ingredients, they aren't cutting corners with the fermentation of their breads and pizzas, they have a nostalgic space that can easily host your family or soccer team (if you make a reservation), and the quality of the pizza is great. I'll definitely be back and I'll consider making a reservation to bring in family! read more

Definitely get a reservation! People who didn't get a reservation asked how long the wait was for a table of 2, table of 4, etc., and it was at least 70-90 minutes. Bar seating is typically full. We waited 25 minutes beyond our reservation time to get seated for our table of 2. We ordered the pineapple al pastor pizza and it came out pretty fast! It was missing something, and we realized it didn't really have any sauce. This one should come with a side of marinara or just have sauce on it in general. Otherwise, it was made well with a thin and tasty crust. Some portions of it had too much crust and not enough toppings, though. We ordered a strawberry and malt chocolate swirl frozen custard and ended up only getting served a full malt chocolate one since the strawberry thing broke. That was disappointing, and our custard was already melting by the time we got it. And nope, it wasn't comp'd. They have a pretty good beer selection that rotates daily and my IPA was tasty! read more

Mooney’s Pizza - Beer Menu - good selection! - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

I love Italian pizza w chewy crust and my fave pizza and pasta restaurant is Spaghettini SB. I passed Mooney's pizza a couple of times from the Y Lakewood on the way home. I bookmarked on Yelp and decided to go today. They open at 4 Mon to Fri except on weekend. Hard to wait for my late lunch or early dinner at 4. I got there 15 mins early and checked the area. This is located on the corner of big strip mall, where are Good Will, dollar tree, and grocery market, and etc. My first impression about the Mooney' was not good. I was waiting until 4:01, still closed. I tapped the door 3 times, then someone opened the door. They were not ready to welcome the customers after 4. When we sat the table, little tiny gnat flies around our table. Bothering me a lot. We got the dark Lager from the bar, the same tiny bug tried to sit in our beers. Very Annoying... I asked the server we want to move other table. Even thou we moved toward left side but that bug bothered us. And also, our table itself was so tiny for our pizza orders. I wanted to test and order at least 3 different pizzas, they barely fitted on our table. Not comfortable at all. Our server forgot to bring the iced water until I paid the bill. I didn't ask him at all. I didn't care. My hubby kept drinking the beers and I took my water from home just in case. Let's talk about the pizza. I went over the reviews on Yelp for 2 days and noticed the flavor and quality of pizzas here looked great. But it was not great taste for me as soon as I bit my first custom cheese, mushroom, pepperoni pizza. Way way too salty....OMG! What the hell? Seemed like they poured the sea salt by accident. And I tasted my curious pizza called pineapple al pastor, it gave me only sour taste due to the sliced onion pickles. For me, I love love sliced onions as pizza topping. But they were sour pickles. I have no idea why they put the onion pickles instead of raw sliced onions. Obviously I was skeptical for double pepperoni pizza. Same marinara sauce w lots of salt and tiny round pepperonis and little bigger flat pepperonis, that was all for this pizza. Why people said it was great? Wow! Wow! I wanted a new pizza place close from home to comfort me after work. Very dissapointed! Who commented the service was good? And the pineapple pizza tastes great???? To be honest, the 3 pizzas I ordered for the first time here were less than 3 stars. I don't want to recommend here. Only one thing I liked was draft beers, we got 2 dark lagers and 1 house lager. The location was so close from our home but the pizza was not met my expectation today. read more

Great food, great service. I ordered the house bread, which was light and crispy on the outside and this soft chewy texture inside. It was so good! The buffalo wings were perfect- well sauced, moist, good amount. The ranch it came with was delicious. We got half pepperoni and half garlic and olives. I can only speak for the pepperoni side. That crust was really crispy and flavorful with a light crisp. It was good. I would have preferred a little more sauce all over each slice. It was more like dollops of sauce around the pie. Dang this place was packed and loud. It was a great neighborhood environment, but a little too much for my senses. This is definitely a family spot tho! Omg I almost forgot about the frozen custard!! Don't forget to get the frozen custard. Thick, rich and creamy. I want more. read more

TLDR: Mooney's Pizza is that old school pizza sit down restaurant with new age thinking. You will be paying a premium so be mindful of that. Why: well let's be honest here, $30 for a large isn't something that can be affordable for everyday families but it sure is nice here and then. You will enjoy the quality of the dough, the flavor, the options, and just plain ol' attentive customer service. So when it all balances out, this is a place that you will visit here and there with friends/family for nice events. Other Details: TRY THE CUSTARD, it was delicious and a great way to close out the meal. I personally had the chocolate custard and enjoyed it a lot. Parking is easy within the strip mall area. read more

First time dining! We do not live in the area and were invited to celebrate a birthday. The restaurant is very well lit, clean, and spacious. Staff is friendly, our server was very animated and appeared to genuinely enjoy working there, was very responsive to recommendations and took very good care of our table. The food...YUM! We ordered house bread, brussel sprouts, and the wings to start. All were delicious. The bread comes with a Calabrian chili honey butter that is not spicy at all. The wings were crispy and well cooked. Of course we ordered pizza. We got a supreme and a pepperoni. The small cup pepperoni was too spicy for me but I enjoyed the sausage on the supreme pizza. If we are ever back in the area I will definitely return. read more

This place I found on Instagram, and for the first time it didn't let me down! Its a decent sized place on the corner of Wardlow and Los Alamitos, with a weird way of walking into the restaurant. Its very popular, and my wife and I went on a Thursday night with friends. Thankfully we had a reservation so i highly stress you make one or you will be waiting an hour at best. The restaurant is very old school looking. It reminds me of pizza joints in the 80's with those Tiffany lapshades that say Mooney's on each of them. Very cool to be taken back to the good old days. The help there is really great. We had a guy named Kyle looking after us and he filled in all the blanks that we had. My wife and I decided to keep the pizza small and try other items on the menu. One was the Buffalo wings that came in a set of eight and they were bigger than average. The Ranch dressing that came with them was good. The Caesar salad was really good too. Came in a small bowl, but there was enough for my wife and I to have enough of. Lots of cheese and the dressing was very tasteful. The pizza was the complete star of the night. We got a small pepperoni and mushroom and the crust was light but crunchy. The flavors were a beautiful symphony of the sauce, cheese, pepperoni, mushroom combined to a glorious eat. I was quite happy that they had oregano on hand, because having it on any pizza is a massive plus. The beer i wasnt too wild about. Their house lager tasted like a summer blend, which wasnt a bad thing, but it didnt come to comparison of just having a Coor's Light or Pabst Blue Ribbon. Either one of those with a slice of pizza, would have made it all phenomenal. They had plenty of choices of craft beer, but none of them spoke to me. Aside from that, I would highly recommend driving out for this one. It is a great experience from beginning to end and I will definitely be going for a bigger pizza and trying out their meatballs next time. read more

We tried to find the pizza place near our home and my wife found a new Mooney's just opened 3 months ago. The location is so close next to our city, in the big strip mall. We waited for about 15 mins before 4 opening time. My wife got upset the door was still locked after 4. My wife went over the reviews on Yelp for 2 days and she knew what to order today. I got first 2 dark lagers from the bar, my wife ordered 3 different pizzas. One custom cheese w 2 toppings, mushrooms and pepperonis. Popular pizza called pineapple al pastor, and double pepperoni pizzas. One thing annoying from the beginning around our table was tiny gnat fly. This tiny bug never went away until we paid the bill. Really annoying. My wife hates the tiny flies, or other bugs when she eats the foods. And also, we didn't get any water served by server. I liked cheese pizza w 2 toppings but my wife doesn't like it. She said too salty. She passed the first pizza. Next pineapple al pastor was not bad, sliced onions pickles, cilantro, pork meats, etc....my wife said too sour.... I like a regular sliced onions, not the pickles. She said, it doesn't give the real taste due to the pickles. Well, 3rd one, double pepperoni pizza, I liked it but my wife didn't. Overall, we were so excited to find a new pizza place so close from our home but the taste was not really our styles we were looking for. My wife wanted to try their frozen custard as dessert but she was not happy about the pizzas. Hope the service is better for the future and less salty to make the marinara sauce will be better for the good health side. Pros Tap beers: great taste Location: easy to find, plenty of parking Cons Business hour: open at 4 Mon to Fri Service: not really welcoming vibes, Should be served iced water in the beggining. Quality: recommend the real italian taste, quality of pizzas like Spaghettini in Seal Beach. read more

Walking in here there is just something different about the clientele. Looking around, people are not just sitting at their seats looking at their phones and ignoring one another. They are like smiling, talking and laughing, this place somehow brought up my mood and made me and the family just like, happy. We ordered the pepperoni to give it a try and the House Bread. Personally, I was not so impressed with the house bread which was delicious but just not special. Quite the opposite to the pizza. Pepperoni was great, the sauce and cheese was all a great blend and well balanced. The pizza had more than just the ingredients though, if love and care had an aftertaste it was all over this pizza. Hard to describe but it just popped with homemade taste and feel and all of a sudden I got it. It's like understanding the old TV show, Cheers? Where everybody knows your name... I was going to give the place a four but as I am writing this, the staff namely, Miles just shined right through. Made me think what a five really means to me. The overly welcoming staff and feel, the pizza, people having a nice little family birthday right next to us for like a four year old, across from like four older friends getting together and chatting over wine. This place is a definite return, Five. Will be back for sure. read more

What a great pizza place. Great food and great atmosphere. The wait was a bit long but Pete the manager was such a great host! All the staff was very positive and energetic. The focaccia with heavenly Calabrian chili whipped butter had such great flavor and texture. The butter was delicious and not too spicy. The meatballs were good but not really special. The Caesar was very good, but the rock star is the pizza. The double pepperoni was very good, and the crust is sooo good. I'm usually one of the 40% of people who don't eat the crust but this crust is more like the focaccia. And the sea salt olive oil custard was a great finish. read more

I have been wanting to try this place, but it's always so packed and it was never a good time, but tonight was the night. The restaurant is large and has a decent size patio. Luckily the parking lot is large as well. We had the Caesar salad, warm olives, a small pepperoni pizza and a pineapple pizza. The salad and pepperoni pizzas were delicious. The pineapple pizza is an interesting combination that didn't really suit my taste buds. We also had custard for dessert. They had cheesecake and pistachio and we had one of each. Both of them were delicious. Still think about them. They also have a good selection of beverages. Only beer and wine. I had two different IPAs, one from a Lomita brewery. It was OK. The one from SLO was excellent. Kai was our server and he was awesome. I will definitely be back. read more

I have been wanting to try Mooney's ever since they opened, and I finally got the chance! We started off with some BBQ wings which tasted good, but had to send off 2 times because they were ice cold in the middle. The last batch of wings was crispy, crunchy, with a really good sauce. The double pepperoni pizza was the star of the show. The crust was phenomenal with perfect texture and crunch. Top it with hot honey and it really hit the spot. For dessert I had the chocolate cherry(?) custard, which was really creamy and not too sweet. Service was fantastic as well, as our server was very attentive, friendly, and did not hesitate to get us new food when we had the problems with the wings. While Mooney's has some minor growing pains, I definitely want to come back to try another pizza. read more

I was excited to see Mooney's Pizza open up in a previously vacant restaurant space, so we decided to check it out about a month or so after they opened. We went on a Tuesday evening and surprisingly, it was crowded on a weekday and they had a wait list. However, one downside, is that they don't take takeout orders or accept online pickup orders. We were not planning to dine in, so that was disappointing (I was hungry). It was late and I did not have another restaurant in mind for dinner. The host suggested we try the bar to see if they could accommodate us, so my boyfriend and I sat there and was helped by Peter. We explained that we weren't planning to stay but wanted to order a pizza and take it to go. Peter said that was fine and accommodated us. He let us know their main focus right now is dine-in service, but they expect to start offering takeout in the next couple of weeks. We ordered a pepperoni pizza and two drinks that Peter recommended, one was their homemade lemonade, and the other was a canned drink (I can't remember the name), but they were really good. As we waited, Peter was great. He was very friendly, sociable, engaging, and had side conversations with us while we waited. Took about 20 or so minutes and our order was ready. We took the pizza home and it was yummy in my tummy. Overall, pizza was good and we look forward to returning. Either waiting till they offer take out service or when we are in the mood for dining in. read more

Mooney’s Pizza - Pepperoni pizza (very good) - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

I wanted to see what the local hype was and was able to make same day reservations at 8:00 pm on a Wednesday. Parking was easy since the place is in a shared shopping plaza. As soon as we came in, the place was pretty packed especially in the waiting area. We checked in and weren't seated until 15 mins after our reservation time. The seats still had some shredded cheese on them so we had to use our napkins to brush them off before we sat down. We already decided what to order while waiting to get seated but it still took about 10 mins until our server came and took our order. They did apologize for the wait but we did notice they were chatting it up with other customers. It's great to make conversation with people but not when other customers have been waiting for awhile. It took about 40 mins until our pizzas arrived. We ordered a small supreme pizza and a small pineapple specialty pizza. Both pizzas had a crispy crust which I liked, but the rest of the pizza bottom was just soggy and flimsy. The supreme tasted like any other combo pizza and was underwhelming. The pineapple pizza had pineapple sauce, al pastor, pickled onion, and cilantro lime salsa. It tasted like a carnitas taco but in pizza form and was flavorful and unique. The interior space is well decorated and there's an outdoor patio area with heat lamps. The noise level was quite loud with everyone talking and having a great time. Could barely hear the music they were playing. Seems like a great spot for big groups but probably not for a first date. Glad I tried this place once but not sure I'd return. read more

Came with my family. We ordered the cheese curds, wings, Caesar salad and several pizzas. The white pizza with pork and Swiss chard was the PERFECT combo. Slightly sweet and savory. The marinara sauce on the pepperoni pizza was so fresh! Loved the cold Caesar salad- perfect amount of dressing. We're a ranch family and our server so kindly bright us a "sauce flight" including the pesto and spicy ranch. Also added the hot honey to the pepperoni/mushroom pizza- chef's kiss! Service was fantastic. The craft beer selection stellar. Can't wait to come back! We will be back! read more

Mooney’s Pizza - Seating for 10 - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

We walked in 15 min before they stopped taking orders. Right off the bat, super friendly servers and quick to help and give us the deets on the menu. Shout out to Jakob for being the sweetest and most helpful server. Amazing service! We knew what we wanted - brussel sprouts, cheese curds (squeakers) with marinara and a double pepperoni & mushroom pizza with ranch and hot honey on the side. Brussels were solid. Lots of fresh grated parm on them. Squeakers (cheese curds) were crispy and yummy. The star - the marinara!!! Perfect flavor - sweet and savory at the same time. Delicious! Then the pièce de résistance - the pizza. Delicious crust, crispy pepperoni and real earthy mushrooms. What took this pizza to the next level? Their house made ranch and their hot honey to dip it in! Bomb! How has this place only been open 100 days? Found it on TikTok and it did not disappoint! Extra star for impeccable music selection and beautiful minimalist pizza parlor decor. Gorgeous wood everywhere! read more

Food: We ordered the deep dish double pepp, regular cheese, Cajun fries, house ceasar salad, and the swirled gelato (chocolate/vanilla). The deep dish is a lot of dough, but it is tasty dough! Fluffy, cheesy, with a CRAZY cheese pull...If you're worried about getting too full don't order this one but 10/10 the regular cheese was great, quality cheese, not too crispy or soft, a solid choice 8/10. The Cajun fries were just ok, hot and crispy but definitely had better 6/10. House ceasar salad was just good but not groundbreaking, the lettuce was fresh and crispy, the parm is freshly grated, the dressing seems homemade but have had better. The serving size was a little small for a family, and it didn't have croutons, it felt like a little something was missing 6/10. The swirled gelato was delicious and if you ask to "make it cute" they will add sprinkles on top! 9/10 service: You may be wondering, if the food was not all 10'a across the board, why 5 stars? The service. Specifically Skylar (shout out to you Skylar!) She was so sweet, attentive, and her personality was so bubbly. The kitchen made an extra order of hot honey brussels sprouts and she kindly offered it to us (spoiler... it ended up being the favorite dish for our family of 4 for the meal! 10/10!) Ambiance: The ambiance is a modern diner type vibe w/ retro details including the gorgeous stained glass lamps hanging above the booths. Such a cozy place. Very very busy and very loud filled with families, couples, friends, and everyone in between (but this didn't bother us at all) :) Wait time: We came on a Friday night at 7:30 with a reservation and the place was overflowing, filled with people waiting to be seated inside, outside in front, and trailing out around the building. I would not recommend coming at this time because it seemed like the craziest dinner rush. It seemed that around 8:15pm everyone was seated and the place really calmed down. It took us about 10 minutes past our reserved time to get seated (no big deal but something to be noted) Pricing: At first glance the prices looked a little steep as compared to your standard pizza shop but after looking at the bill everything looked very reasonable, total was $113 for a family of 4 before tip for 2 pizzas, 2 sodas, a family salad, fries, and 2 gelatos (fair!) read more

Not worth the hype. I got wings, pizza, and fries. Expensive for ordinary tasting food. One of the pizzas got was a cheese pizza for my son and I thought they accidentally gave us pepperoni at first because there was so little cheese. There was blobs/ uncovered area of marinara. For a cheese pizza I would expect it to look like a traditional cheese pizza that is covered in cheese. Interior was nice decor so it's more for the vibes than it is for the food. read more

Mooney’s Pizza - Menu - Pizza Near Me - Long Beach, California

I am a fan!! We were able to get a reservation for an 8:30pm dinner and there were some empty tables nearby so not too crowded at this time. Our server was nice and was joking around with our group. We enjoyed our pitchers of beer, apps, pizza, and custard! We started with the Caesar salad (family size) and fried cheese curds with spicy ranch. I liked both of these, but I think the pizzas were better. We got the double pepperoni with ricotta, sausage and chard, and pineapple pizzas. The double pep was my favorite, have to add hot honey, too! Sausage and chard was my second favorite. The pineapple we wanted to try because it had al pastor on it. I liked the idea of it better than it tasted. I want to come back and try other pizzas. We also tried the custard for dessert with seal salt and olive oil. A little pricey but worth a try on your first visit! read more
