Manhattan Pizzeria

First time visit from Tacoma, WA - parked in front and saw Pizza and met the owner. I tried the Pepperoni Pizza slice and best ever... thin and crispy, great sause and good pepperoni and adaquate cheese. Minimal greesy but what do you expect for pepperoni pizza. I came back later and had Hawaiian and same thing - when I am in LA next time I will drive there just to have this Pizza, wish I has some right now.... NOTE: I felt welcome they were fast and professional. felt like NY quality more

Just discovered this place and really love it, the pizza is great and the staff are friendly and efficient more

I got a Deluxe with lots of toppings but you could only taste Salt! Maybe instead of frozen it's stored in salt? Pros: None! Cons: Pizza is awful more

Besides maybe Mulberry's in Beverly Hills, this pizza is the best in Los Angeles. I dont know what the dude two below me is talking about, but the service is awesome. Whether I'm going in for a pitcher and a slice to watch the game in the quaint and home made dining area with some good lookin people, or smoking bowls and ordering a large Royal Hawaiian (my fav) this place delivers quality food from quality pizza. The wings are amazing as well, and the pitchers are reasonable. GO CHECK IT OUT!! more

Best pizza on the west coast... I live in Manhattan Beach and this Pizza makes me feel like I'm back home.. They not only have great pizza, they have a great italian food. I always get an Italian ice on the way out or they have soft serve ice cream.. oh yea they play Grateful Dead and reggae all day.. the best thing is, They're located a 100 yards from the beach... Pros: Cheap prices and big portions more

Good food fast. more

Let me open by saying that I would have given this place ""0"" stars if possible. I live in Manhattan Beach and have had pizza delivered from many places in the area. I have ordered from this place several times over the years and have noticed a steady, rapid decline, both in the quality of the pizza and in the service. After a bad experience, I didn't order from this place for a over a year. I decided to give them a chance after reading the reviews here. BIG MISTAKE! The person who answered the phone had trouble hearing my order over the loud music they were playing. After being disconnected when put on ""hold"" I finally placed my order and was told it would arrive in 30-45 minutes. After an hour, I called and was told that it was already ""on it's way."" After another 1/2 hour, I called again and was told that they were having problems and was again told that it was already ""on it's way."" I called again to complain and asked for the manager. I was told that there were no managers and the owner was out of town. When I commented, ""When the cat's away, the m*** will play"" she hung up on me. The pizza arrived before I could get through again to cancel the order. When it arrived, it was cold, so thin you could see through it (we're not talking ""thin crust pizza here) and looked like a big bite had been taken out of it. ANY of the local or chain pizzarias have better pies and service. more

Ummm although the last slice I ordered to go (twuz late @ night) was ummm not even warm but the taste (seasoning and crusty/crunchy crust) is so incredible and outstanding ... it didn't matter that much ... I scarfed it down! All the other pizzas available to the public is ummm I DON'T HAVE A NAME FOR IT :( Pros: EXCELLENTLY SEASONED ... JUST THE RIGHT AMOUNT OF THIS AND THAT :) Cons: NONE ... WELL THE ""APPEARANCE"" COULD IMPROVE BUT IF IT TAKES AWAY FROM THE FLAVOR ... FERGITTTTTTTTTTTTTTT IT ... more

I went this place with my wife yesterday and there was a line out the door of Caucasian kids. We graciously stood in line and when our time came to order the Hispanic male who was taking orders returned to making pizzas. Then a tall, ball-headed Caucasian male looked at us and then turned his back on us for a good five minutes like we didn't exist. There was no one behind us so I suppose there was no urgency to tend to us. We never even had a chance to order any food as we grew tired of being treated as second-class citizens and left. We dine and shop in Manhattan Beach rather frequently and never receive this type of treatment from anyone! One would hope that one person doesn't represent the face of the establishment, but unfortunately he had them all look bad during our visit yesterday. Cons: Poor service. more

I am not sure where some of these reviewers have been eating, but it certainly is not at the same Manhattan Pizzeria that my family & I have been frequenting. We went over the weekend, & knowing that it takes a long time to get our pizza, we have begun to order over the phone so that we cut down on some of the ?wait? time. The phone experience was about par; we were put on hold 3 times, we had to repeat everything, & then the order was incorrectly read back. It was obvious the girl on the phone was pre-occupied & not interested in taking our order. She ended by saying the food would be ready in 15 to 20 minutes, & we arrived 12 minutes later. We were pleasantly surprised when we were told our order was ready, even though it was all packed to go when we specifically said we would be dining in. I presented my coupon at the time of payment, only to be told that I had to use it later, since the order was already rung up. I said this was unacceptable, & after much discussion with the gentleman I can only assume was the manager, my coupon was accepted. As soon as we began to eat we could tell why the order was completed so fast; the pizza was reheated from a pie that was sitting out to be sold as individual pieces. It was cold & hard, & did not have the extra cheese we had requested. The salad we ordered was missing the artichokes & croutons we had asked for, & when this was pointed out, they took the salad back to make the necessary corrections, only to bring it back to us still wrong. And, during the entire time the salad was being worked on, the manager was telling his cook (in Spanish) how unreasonable we were. We continue to eat here because my daughter loves the Italian Ices. If not for that, the food & service both are so bad that we would never go back. I cannot wait to find a place that serves decent Italian Ices, since that will mean that my family & I will not have to put up with people who obviously do not care about their customers. Pros: Italian Ices, when available, are great. Cons: Food, Service and Management more

This is truly the best pizza I have eaten west of New York. The low rating is customer service. Delivery is terrible. Either they have decided to not provide it on a given day or evening for whatever reason or, when it is delivered, the order is wrong. more

go sheck it out......it's not that bad for beach pizza - you may like it....tasty after a day of surfin OR turfing.... more

Being that I'm originally from NY, Manhattan Pizzeria had a lot to live up to on my first visit, but they more than passed the test.Their pizza is actually better than any pizzeria I've been to in NY! I've since been back countless times- it's the only pizza I crave! Pros: The food and service are exceptional! Cons: Too far from where I live! more

Just wanted to take 2 seconds to say how much we love their pizza...(one-one thousand, two-one thousand...hehe)...WE LOVE YOUR PIZZA! Being from Chicago, we're a bit biased about our pizza favorites, but if you want the best New York style pie west of the Mississippi, definitely check this place out. We go there everytime we're in town for a while and start to crave some classic thin crust perfection...thanks guys! Pros: Great pizza, fast and friendly service, just another good reason to get to the beach... =) Cons: They're not a pizza chain yet, available EVERYWHERE so we don't have to drive to them. more

Best customer service! There is always a smile to be had upon entering and The Pie Guy along with his staff are friendly and quality service minded. We look forward to going in, sometimes picking up rather than delivery just for the smiles! Some of the best wings ever; pizza is always great! Thanks Pizza Guy!! Pros: Everything Cons: Nope more

the pizza ROCKS! it's no deep dish chicago-style, but hands down the best in this neighborhood. yes, even better than that place on abbot kinney. they also deliver, but only after 5pm. and, definitely a great spot to stop at during the infamous south bay bike crawls. Pros: the pizza ROCKS Cons: not an eat-in kind of place, but they do have tables... capacity of 40, i'm guessing more

I went all the way to Manhattan Beach for the pizza--the pizza sucked...I wanted to ask for a gas refund. Anyone who says this is the best pizza in LA needs to get their taste buds checked!!!! VILAGGE PIZZERIA on LARCHMONT is by fat the best pizza in LA!!!!! more

I have been going here for about 3 years, mainly because my daughter likes the pizza. However, she especially likes the italian ices. Unfortunately, the consistency of the pizza is horrible. One time it is ok, the next time it is horrible. It has not been great for the past 2 years. As far as the italian ices, they now have a great supplier, but are often out of stock. This is the problem they have had since I started going here; one time they have the ices, then they are out for what can often be 2 weeks to 3 months. As far as service, it has gone from bad to horrible. They don't answer the phone so that I can call in an order, and when you get to the restaurant, the register person is either the pizza maker also, or they have no idea how to use the cash register. Pros: At this point, not much. Maybe the italian ices, when they are in stock. Cons: Service, Service, Service!! And now more

It's no surprise this Pizzeria takes the crown year after year... Great food, Great service and a Great crowd. more

This place by far, makes the best pizza I have every had in my entire life. An absolute must!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! more
