    First yelp review. I know it's tough out there, being in the service industry for 20+ years, but the response from this owner warrants it. The gist - I ordered a custom pizza (takeout) for me and my folks in person, not online, and it came with no cheese. I didn't believe it until my folks sent us a picture and they were right. We called to see what happened - apparently you have to request cheese at Speak Cheezy. Again this was an in person order, not online. The next morning I called to ask what happened and the response boggled my mind - apparently the "rules" are you have to ask for cheese! When I reached out to the owner via Insta, which is the only way I could get a response; this is what he had to say. My message + see screenshots for Jason's response. ### Hey Jason, [PLEASE READ ] I've been ordering pizza since 1985 @ Dominos - back then, it was premium. Over time, I've learned there is better pizza out there, and your joint has proved that time and time again. Which made my experience last night so disappointing... I was happy to drop off your pizza to my folks last night, until they called to share (complain) their disappointment that the pizza had no cheese. We thought they were crazy so they sent us a picture and it was true - NO CHEESE from Speak Cheezy! This was an in person order, not online. So we called your place this afternoon and spoke to two of your employees - they confirmed and shared the policy for any custom pizza, the customer must ask for cheese. When we questioned your team members why it would not be defaulted/confirmed for cheese on the pizza, their response was "we wouldn't ask you if you wanted olives, would we?" I understand dietary needs have evolved but having to ask for cheese on a pizza is silly. You must agree... We love your place - order on the regular and recommend it to our community + we always tip above the three buttons offered. Please enable us to remain loyal and enthusiastic customers by making this right with a refund or credit for our next pizza and educate your front line team to do the same. Standing by...

    So, I've had this place on my radar for quite some time, and today I happened to see an influencer reviewing it on IG, which finally convinced us to give it a try! So after the movies, my hubby and I decided to check it out. We ordered a Margherita pizza, and I have to say, the cheese and dough were really good! The sauce, however, wasn't quite my cup of tea. It was thicker and more tangy than what we usually prefer. We like our pizza sauce on the lighter, brighter side, with that fresh, sweet-tart flavor. But then came the chocolate soft serve... and THAT was a solid 10/10! Absolutely delicious and definitely a highlight of the visit! Customer service was also very cordial, friendly, and attentive, which always makes the experience even better. Overall, glad we finally gave this place a try!

    Our favorite pizza place in Long Beach (besides mooney's). Great service and their ranch is soooo good.

    THE LBC
    Danica

    Randomly stumbled upon Speak Cheezy in Long Beach and so glad we stopped in. They specialize in sourdough pizza and it shows. Got a slice of the LBC - mozzarella, pepperoni, fennel sausage, ricotta, garlic, oregano, and parmesan, and it was really good. The crust was perfectly crunchy, the toppings were generous, and every bite had so much going on in the best way. The combo of fennel sausage and ricotta especially worked really well together. Interior is fun and casual, and staff were friendly. Solid spot if you're in the area, would definitely go back to try more slices!

    Vegan Cheeze with Roasted Mushrooms
    Anji B.

    We've gotten large pizzas to-go several times now. It's a small spot with a tiny dine-in area, basically one table and maybe a bar against the wall. One a nice evening we ate at an outdoor bench, though it was awkward. Their original sourdough crust is super tasty. The Vegan Cheeze pizza is great as-is, with a generous amount melty and delish plant-based cheese, but we've added the vegan pepperoni --which the online menu notes is Green Slice's Veggeroni-- which gives it a bit of a kick. We also tried adding the roasted mushrooms once. There are other plant-based toppings to choose from including oregano, basil, red onion, jalapeños, garlic spinach, roasted garlic, gaeta olives, cipollini onions, and the ever-controversial pineapple. As a vegan, so I can only speak to the vegan options, and I'm so glad they offer them here.

    Lemon pepper wings
    Lindsey H.

    Pizza is good but I have never been more disappointed in a wing in my life! If u like boiled wings maybe u will like these.... What a waste of money! Had one bite and had to throw the rest away. I truly cannot believe they are selling wings after ordering these for the first time. Absolutely disgusting.. Long Beach is an incredible food city I don't know how they get away with having these boiled wings on their menu. If I was giving stars just for the pizza I would put 4 but the wings are bringing my review down to two stars

    Truffle Shuffle
    Crystal G.

    I had high hopes for this place after seeing a few videos on Instagram recently. I tried their truffle shuffle and it was decent at best. I feel like this place has a ton of potential to be super cool if they just live it up a little bit by even playing a little music. The inside decor of the place was really cool, and the customer service was pleasant. I did notice that they have like a little pick up window. Where perhaps you could grab a slice and go versus going inside. Parking is on the street and free. If you're unsure about trying this place, I recommend going during lunch for their lunch special but to buy a whole pie I don't know if it would be worth it unless you're sharing with people

    Bloomsdale Slice (white sauce base with a pesto drizzle)
    Jay S.

    I have to say, this is probably the worst slice deal in America (and I've eaten a lot of slices at a lot of places). With tax and tip each slice came out to a little over $10, in this economy?! However, their full Pizza prices are in line with what you would expect from a place like this, so this is probably a place I would only recommend coming if you want a whole pizza. It does have a very cute ambiance and it's a bit of a cozy location with not a ton of seating, but it gets the job done. I was also a little disappointed because of the hype around the crust, it really didn't taste that unique, but one of the pizzas I had was very flavorful (the Truffle Shuffle). I really regret not getting the vodka slice because the gentleman at the counter said the other option was better, but I've heard very good things about their vodka pizza from others. At some point I would like to come back here and give this another try, maybe in a group setting and getting a whole pizza to-go. I also heard their ranch is very good, but I forgot to try it this time. Food: 3/5 Service: 3.5/5 Ambiance: 4/5 Value: 1/5 (for slices) Overall: 3/5

    George R.

    Long Beach's cornerstone pizza shop that has a lot to say and definitely here to stay. It proudly boasts a finely tuned sourdough, perfecting the crust and overall feeling to the dough. Throughout every visit, they've hit all the marks when it comes to different types of pies and each experience was consistently awesome. Offering more than just slices and squares, theres always something for someone. I recommend any of their hot honey or burrata pieces as it's my favorite combo but that veggie mushroom pizza is another level too. They always are quick with orders or heating up slices but i do recommend calling in when busy. Stepping in always feels like getting a classic pizza shop experience with big city quality. People are free to enjoy their slice and just hangout in or outside. The weekends are almost movie like with a friendly neighborhood vibe that will reel you in.

    Brooklyn Bee
    Sally W.

    Yes, please, thank you, and may I have another? Speak Cheezy is everything good about pizza and definitely one of the top pizza shops in Long Beach for a reason. I ordered the Brooklyn Bee. The crust was incredible, and the ingredients used were delicious and well balanced throughout the pie (including the hot honey - yum!). I ordered online for an easy breezy pickup. The hardest part is just finding parking when it's peak hours.

    Is there indoor seating?

    Yes, a few seats are available at their 2 tables.

    Do they sell plain cheese pizza or plain cheese slice?

    If you look on their website (or ToastTab) you can see all the pizza options, including cheese. Not sure about slices since I've only ordered whole za's.

There was something special…read moreabout whispering sweet nothings into that little ordering window, then walking over to another little window to receive your heavenly gift: a crispy, juicy, delicately cheesy burger on a soft bun--all for under $10. I've traveled around and tried a lot of burger joints. It's honestly hard to fuck up a burger, but it's also hard to make one truly memorable. The Win-Dow captures exactly what an LA burger should be: quick, simple, delicious, and affordable. Now they have locations throughout Southern California, including this one in Long Beach--which I especially like because it isn't surrounded by hundreds of hipsters. It's in one of my favorite parts of Long Beach, where you still get those laid-back beach-town vibes. The staff is usually pretty straightforward. Smiling must be considered an "ick" nowadays, but no worries--I'm here for the burgers. There's a chill little area outside the pickup window where you can eat, or you can drive a few blocks to the beach and enjoy it there. For the quality, simplicity, and price, The Win-Dow is genuinely one of my favorite burger joints. When you consider everything--not just the burger itself, but the experience and value--this could possibly be the best burger in LA.

This place did not disappoint for a burger joint. I ordered just a a simple cheeseburger and got the crispy brussels sprouts and wow just wow. The crispy brussels sprouts was actually pretty tasty and the perfect crispy. It is not soggy at all more than crispy like some restaurants do when offering crispy brussels sprouts . It also was seasoned simply but still tasted so good. The cheeseburger was also just a simple cheeseburger, but it was so good and cooked perfectly to my liking with burgers. I had some of my cousins fries with the jalapeno ranch and house ranch to try and I def recommend trying the sauces they have. I also tried my cousins shake (the chocolate s'mores) and it was quite tasty that I kept taking a few sips of it. Overall, 1000% recommend when in Long Beach. I believe they do have another location somewhere else in SoCal according to my cousin, but I am not too sure where.

    Came for the $3 Taco Tuesday night. Surprisingly not busy! Was worried about parking on the street…read morebut luckily we found a spot not too far of a walk away. They had sports playing on the TVs and the interior is pretty small. It's more of a casual vibe good for a chill night out. It kinda feels like a place where you order at the front and get takeout, but they have someone who will wait on your table if you choose to dine in. I came with a vegetarian friend and we had a fun time sampling the different taco meats and rating each. Here is my ranking: 1. Asada - I hate to be basic, but this was good for what it was. It tasted like they might have used mushroom meat, but this takes place as #1 for me because I think it could be a general crowd pleaser for any non-vegetarian. On the contrary, my vegetarian friend did not like it because she found it too dry. 2. Barbacoa - A very, very close second. The only reason it places behind asada is because asada is a classic. Barbacoa has good texture and I could eat a lot of these too. 3. Chorizo - This was the closest to tasting like its actual counterpart. I could eat a bunch of chorizo. Crumbly meat with lots of flavor. 4. Tinga - I'm not as familiar with tinga meat, but the pickled red onion that went with this taco gave it a savory taste. Good to try out but you're not missing out if you choose other flavors. 5. Chicken - Tasted like tofu meat? Not bad - I don't usually pick chicken for taco meat so this might be a personal preference choice. 6. Pastor - Sweet, but did not taste like pastor. Had a little trouble distinguishing between the pastor and the tinga at first, but came to the conclusion the pastor was the one with pineapple on it. I mostly prefer savory meats and while I don't mind the pineapple, the pastor I usually have is not sweet itself. If you like sweet meats, this might be worth getting. 7. Potato - Everybody can skip the potato. It's a fried potato taco, but the potato they use resembles a breakfast hash. The crispiness is nice, but the texture is flaky and the sauce doesn't save it. Even my vegetarian friend was let down by this one even though she had high hopes and usually likes potato tacos. Overall the server told us most of the taco meats were soybean based (not the pastor). I think the chorizo might be falafel, but that's a guess? Ended our meal with the Tres Leches as a dessert. Frosting is buttery and sweet (maybe a little too much frosting) but the cake goes super well with the milk. It sits in a soy milk bath which is a first for me. I wish they had added more soy milk! The menu is huge though. I was very tempted to try other stuff on the menu so I am very open to coming back and trying the breakfast platter (or getting more tacos again, yum).

The menu was vast but I ordered an indulgent chocolate crepe, as I was craving something sweet and light. The crepe had a lovely pillowy texture and was so heavenly, both the chocolate sauce and chocolate mousse were so rich and decadent and had me wanting more! I loved the freshness, sweetness and juiciness of the berries! The coconut whipped cream really took it over the top and added a nice airiness. Their crepes are must haves and I'm dying to try more of them! I will definitely be back soon to this location or one of their other conveniently located ones!
