Thunderbolt Pizza in Long Beach has become my go-to pizzeria. After trying a wide range of their…read moremenu, two dishes stand out above the rest: the Pizza Margherita and the Garlic Knots. Pizza Margherita - 5/5. This is a perfect example of the care and craft that go into their food. The crust strikes a rare balance - it has that signature leopard-spotted char and slight floppiness you'd expect from a Neapolitan-style pizza, but also delivers the chewiness and airy structure of a great New York-style slice. It never tips too far into being overly crispy or dry. What really sets it apart, though, is the sauce. While many pizzerias treat sauce as an afterthought, Thunderbolt clearly does not. Their tomato sauce is rich, vibrant, and juicy, with a depth of flavor that avoids being overly acidic, salty, or tannic. It enhances the pizza beautifully without overshadowing the dough, which is exactly how it should be. Garlic Knots - 5/5. - Easily some of the best I've had anywhere in LA. These are essentially bread rolls with a super chewy interior and a thin, lightly crusty exterior, served alongside their excellent marinara sauce. They're incredibly satisfying and consistently a crowd favorite. I've brought visitors from Japan, Germany, and New York, and every single one of them couldn't stop talking about these knots. My only small critique is that I wish they had used fresh garlic instead of canned, which would have taken them to an even higher level. Still, even as they are, they're outstanding. Overall, Thunderbolt Pizza delivers thoughtful, high-quality food that stands out in a crowded pizza scene. It's the kind of place you keep coming back to--not just because it's good, but because it's consistently memorable.

They helped me immediately upon entering. The LBC is Mozz, pepp, fennel sausage, garlic, ricotta, pecorino, parsley, oregano. Delicious pizza! Hard to find good pizza in California. While it's a bit pricier of an option, I'd come back. It's delicious! Parking is street. But on the side street of the building you're technically not allowed to park there. So we did just temporarily for pick up.

I had high hopes for this place after seeing a few videos on Instagram recently…read more 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

Awesome bar. I don't want to call it a dive bar because the food is so awesome and everything here…read moreis definitely NOT a dive bar. But, I think they go for that aesthetic. You come for the pizza. But you stay for the arcade and pinball setups. And, if you're lucky, you'll come on a random day when a band is playing. The old horror posters on the wall and CRT monitors of old horror movies (Chainsaw Massacre the day I went) are a great touch. Truly a special place and if you're into horror, booze or arcades, then it's completely worth a visit. And, even if you're not, still visit!

We were greeted with a smile and were taken careful from the beginning to the very end. My husband and I shared the Cesaer salad and the fresh Parmesan was *chef's kiss*. We also ordered two pasta dish that were both unique and delicious in their own ways. I ordered the spaghetti nerano with a side of grilled chicken and my husband ordered the pappardelle genoese. It paired perfectly with each other because each dish can get overwhelming after a few bites. Our son of course shared our meals but also had a side of delicious crispy fries! We ended the night with a chocolate and hazelnut gelato. Both were rich in flavors! Our wonderful server also brought out two deep friend bread filled with Nutella and that took me into a ratatouille moment! Definitely can't eat more than one if you're watching your intake. Overall the restaurant looked beautiful on the outside and cozy on the inside! Definitely will be back!

My cousin used Yelp to find a place and very methodically we found ourselves here. Parking is a challenge since street parking is limited. We also were there on Sunday, Mother's Day so I'm not sure if that played into it. We ended up parking in the neighborhood several blocks away and walked over, service dog in tow. Each of us ordered our own personal pizzas, with our own unique requests. Bruschetta: Tomatoes, Garlic, seasons with Salt, Pepper and EVOO. I ordered: Spinach N' Feta Salad: Spinach, Feta Cheese, Craisins, and Crushed Candied Walnuts, with Honey Cider Vinegratette dressing. pizza: Stuffed pizza deep dish: with mozzarella cheese, and toppings, then covered with a thin layer of dough and zesty tomato sauce. I added artichoke. Overall, the salad was a favorite of mine. The pizza was 3.5/5. Maybe i was expecting Giardino's but the price hit more like Mortons. So, im going to say, 3/5 at best for overall service, quality of food, and price. Vibe: Casual, delicious, and very cheesy!

We came to meet some friends for drinks and a pizza. I remember walking by this place a while back…read moreand noticed it. It was quite lovely on the patio. Mid week when we arrived which wasn't too crazy. There was no one on the patio which was nice as it gave us first choice for a seat...lol... Everyone was seating inside. The place itself isn't that big. You have the bar area with some bar seating. Then there's a couple of tables inside and of course the patio which is along the sidewalk. Personally I prefer sitting outside for the people watching. The staff were all amazing and very friendly. Places like that make the experiences more enjoyable. You want someone who is friendly and respectful. As we were there early, we grabbed one of the beer which they have quite a good selection on tap. There's also wine if you're not into beer. When it came time to grab some food, we were able to get a table inside. Majority of the breweries tends to serve pretty much the same things, pizza sandwiches and salads. No complaints here. Simple food goes a long way. There were a couple of us so we grabbed a few things to share. Started off with the pretzel balls with cheese dip and honey mustard and the chips with queso cheese dip. Pretzel was tasty and outdid the queso dip. Pizzas of course which were pretty big in sizes. A couple of the pizzas and a salad did four of us with leftovers. Their Hawaiian pizza was quite tasty and was finished. We also ordered one of the mushroom pizzas with an egg. It was tasty but a little on the salty side. The arugula salad was delicious. Simple but tasty. And then there was ham pizza I believe with onions and peppercini. That was also a favorite of the night. Overall, the place was quite fun. Not a big brewery and more intimate. The crowd was great and as most places are very kid and family friendly. There was couple of kids when we arrived. Service was great. Food and drinks were enjoyed and the service and staff were excellent. Street parking available along the front but also along the neighborhood.

They are sliced thick, cooked to golden brown and always delicious. Enjoy the Potatoes with some ranch or ketchup and life is good. The pizza here is also made hot and ready to order and is high on the list for good pizza. This location along with the other location I have been to in El Monte are both pretty spacious where you can bring the family or friends and hangout. This location also has a full bar with bar top seating along with a big dinning area and out door seating as well. They have TVs for entertainment and Beer on Tap :) It's located in the heart of Long Beach off Pine Ave. I will say it's not the nicest neighborhood but it could be worse. You can definitely walk around before and after and grab a drink at a local bar or other restaurants but not much shopping or entertainment going on. Service is always good, the staff is always friendly and very helpful. Parking is rough since it's on a Main Street but there is some street parking along with parking structures around If you're in the area and craving pizza... this is the spot! SYoY, Enjoy.

Saw some solid reviews for this spot. Came in and ordered a medium pepperoni and sausage pizza…read more Also wanted to try their wings. The pizza had sesame on the dough end of it, never seen that. Anyway took a bite, mid, nothing you can't literally get at any spot around your house. The ingredients were pretty basic and they load it with cheese which is whatever but was honestly disappointed. The wings were also kinda fatty, not quality and mediocre. Overall a whatever spot, confused on the 4.5 they have. Maybe it's like a social spot people go to. Pizza: 6.7 Wings 6.3

We ordered a half and half pizza online for pickup and spent over $30 for pizza and a 4oz container of ranch. They told us it would be about 20min when we ordered so we got ready and left. We got there probably 15min after we ordered and grabbed two cokes while we waited. I tried to pay with cash and was told he might not have change to give me. I said that was ok even though it's pretty lame that you don't keep change in your register. He happened to find a very large coin bag and made me change. We were sitting right at the front and you couldn't miss us. They asked us a few times what our name for the order was and we told them the same thing every time. Finally after about 10 min they asked us for the 3rd time what our name was and then walked away. We could hear someone say "the order for Kymmy didn't leave they are here" or something along those lines. We kind of just looked at each other. The guy that rang us up came over and said, "sorry something happened to your pizza it'll be another 20min or so". At this point we had already been waiting about 15 min for the pizza. So we said ok because we were starving. One of the employees asked us if we drank wine we said no we didn't and that's why we were drinking cokes. He said, "ohh, okayyyy..." and gave us a very judgmental look. Like sir, you don't know why we aren't drinking. We also kind of figured he wanted to give us a few beverage for the mix up. But that was the end of it. We heard someone say our name and we asked if ours was ready and one girl acted like we were being impatient while waiting. Like we didn't just wait over a half hour for food. Finally our pizza was done after a total of 40 min and there was very minimal apology for the delay. We took it back to our hotel and we were so excited it smelled so amazing and it looked so good. I cannot tell you how disappointed we were when we took our first few bites. It was not that great. We had ordered pepperoni and the veggie pizza. We ate half of it because we were starving and very quickly regretted it. It made both of us super sick on top of everything else Needless to say we won't be back here and won't be recommending this place either
