50 Best Pizza Restaurants near El Segundo

“With counter and/or bar service, a full menu of appetizers, salads, and entrees are available in addition to pizzas. A limited selection of pizzas are available by the slice, and the thin crust has great flavor, although it's not especially crispy. El Segundo Brewing's lineup of beers are on tap, along with a couple of guest offerings, so if a slice and a pint appeals to you, the name definitely doesn't lie.“

“I've lived in Gundo for a long time. This location has been many restaurants. Naturally. I've eaten and support ALL the local pizza joints. But I've never been here... Last time I was here was when it opened as JustaPizza. Eating this 2 slice combo and drink here... $9 for 1 toping each slice with a drink(big slices)... But I got 2 toppings today?... Wow. So delish. So so crispy bottom crust. And just look at the pic. You get A LOT of toppings.Had the submarine sub last time. This place is great. Wish I supported it sooner.The owner is great. Nice. Food is delicious. It's hard to find a lunch now a days where you can get full off single digit price range.“

“Excellent food, & service . Jose was accommodating, friendly & courteous ‼️ Pizza , lasagna & sandwiches are excellent ‼️ Thank You“

“This store has been CONSISTENT for two years in their customer service! These girls go the distance and am rarely disappointed (if so it’s only been an occasional slacking in food prep) I’ll take that any day over poor service!! From taking orders to complaints to delivery… THEY have exceeded my expectations by far! Sorry it took so long to post;) Keep up the amazing job!!“

“For this yankee, the pizza was as close as it gets to any NY style pizza! The crust was perfectly thin (not too thin), the sauce had just the right amount of sweetness and the cheese had a good bite. The service was neighborhood friendly. The young men working knew the teens coming in. They were all pretty down to earth and polite. To too off the experience, very affordable!“

“Awesome food, friendly staff, generous sitting, good price, and at a nice part of town. A family run business that really cares about the customers. Highly recommended.“

“As an East Coast transplant, my search for authentic pizza in California has been a disappointing journey... until Prime Pizza. This El Segundo gem delivers the real deal that actually satisfies those New York/New Jersey pizza cravings.

Their round pies nail that perfect balance - thin, foldable crust with just the right chew, quality sauce that doesn't overwhelm, and properly melted cheese. But the true standout for me is their Sicilian square pizza - crispy bottom, airy interior, and those perfect crispy cheese edges that any square pie enthusiast knows is the hallmark of excellence.

The white pizza deserves special mention - perfectly garlicky with ricotta that's creamy but not heavy. It rivals some of the best I've had back east, which is saying something.

What makes Prime even better is the efficiency. Whether grabbing a quick lunch or dinner, the service is always prompt and friendly. The ingredients taste noticeably fresh, and they don't skimp on quality.

The space is casual and unpretentious - exactly what you want in a proper pizza joint. Prices are reasonable for the quality you're getting.

For East Coasters suffering through California's pizza scene or locals who want to experience what proper pizza should taste like, Prime Pizza in El Segundo is the real deal. You won't miss those cardboard-crusted, overly sweet sauced disappointments ever again.“

“The food tasted really good!“

“Exceptional and delicious food. You can taste the thought they put into every dish. The service was perfect as well, it was attentive but at the same time it did not feel forced or too pushy. Perfect place with a great atmosphere. Definitely recommend and would come back. I also appreciated that they add 4% health service charge to provide health care for their employees. It felt like they care about people working there and it was reflected in the atmosphere of the place.“

“Incredible pizza!

Absolutely worth the wait but definitely recommend getting a reservation if you can.

We ended up sitting outside which excluded us from getting any alcoholic beverages which was fine because we got drunk on pizza!

We split a Caesar salad, pickled vegetable appetizer, and ordered two pizzas for three people. It was more than enough food and we polished off the meal by splitting a tiramisu. It was define!

The dough really was the star of the show here with a soft chewy texture at the center, but a crispy crust.

I definitely wanna come back and sit at the bar as I’m sure it’s fun to watch them make the pies as you’re enjoying them.“

“I’m an east coast pizza snob, and this place nails it! I love both their Detroit style and round pizza. I typically go for plain cheese for my pizza fix, but the good green and hot jimmy are incredible. Also highly recommend the meatballs!“

“My son is in love with your minestrone soup.. Your pizza..and your tiramisu!!“

“Great pizza and knots! Visiting from Arizona. Owners very friendly and great customer service. Wish we had one of these in Arizona. Definitely we would give 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.Thanks till the next visit!“

“Wow!! This has been the best pizza i’ve had in a minute & I don’t say it lightly. The pepperoni had the right amount of crunchiness and the pineapple was juicy perfect crust as well! The owner and staff were also so warm and welcoming! & not to mention it is right down the street from the beach! If you’re in the south bay this is the pizza you MUST try! Will definitely be back for more.“

“great pizza great crew the pizza is a bit pricy but the flavor and quality merit it you can taste the quality and fresh ingredients I highly recommend it just wishi could afford to go more often.“

“High quality food, tastes like the homemade wholesome Ukrainian food back in Ukraine. YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED. 😀“

“Best food ever. Best staff ever. My daughter suffered a medical emergency at the WeHo location. The manager and staff were beyond kid and helpful. Not that I recommend having a seizure at a restaurant, but Pizzana handled it beautifully. I do love their food. Authentic, fresh and delicious. Their gluten free pizza is the best in town.♥️“

“Best Fkin NewYork style Pizza in all of Cali hands down and I’m a New Yorker to the core and tried every place north and south of there! Their House special is NOT TO BE MISSED - must get a slice of that or make that a PIE! The owner and staff are amazing too.i have been going since their one in the Palisades that was destroyed in the fires. Make sure you support them“

“This is the only pizza place in LA that brings me back east to the pizza of my childhood!!!! EXTREMELY personable staff at this no frills neighborhood pizza parlor ☺️ There's a lot of upscale pizza in this city but this place has my heart ??“

“Amazing people and atmosphere, the food was amazing, the service, and all the people were super nice and funny. Must say, this is one of the best pizzas I have ever tasted. Good price, and you MUST try the spicy wings!!! They are to die for. Recommend going on the classic pepperoni pizza, you can really taste the amount of love out into it!“

“My partner and I love pizza baby. It’s super delicious and they offer vegan mozzarella which is perfect for lactose intolerant folks. We’ve ordered from them three times now and it’s quickly become our favorite pizza take out spot.

Dietary restrictions: They offer vegan mozzarella.“

“I checked this place out after seeing the reviews, and it was even better than I expected. The Mushroom Pizza and Fat Tomato Works were so good, I can’t stop thinking about them. If you’re over greasy, salty, or dry crusts, I’d seriously recommend this spot – it’s legit New York-style pizza.

The staff was awesome too – they treated us like old friends while still being super quick and professional.“

“Steve the owner is a great guy so full of life and a smile that shines as bright as the sun. He's friendly and full of joy and you will be too. They only sell full pies that are extra large in size. I got the pepperoni pizza with sausage and it was amazing and it cost me $35 and worth it. I also got one of his meatballs and were so full of flavor and the marinara sauce was so fresh and tasty. He only serves on Friday's from 12pm to 7pm in the parking lot of a local church. This will not be the last time I go there! ;)“

“Wow! SO fresh (they import their ingredients incl. flour) and it’s a casual drop in spot — hard to find combo in LA. Drizzle the infused olive oil on the prosciutto panini - so good. Kind people working who care about the food and experience. Can’t wait to come back.“

“Red & Louie’s makes one of the best cheese pizzas I’ve ever had — simple, classic, and absolutely delicious. The crust was spot-on, the sauce had just the right balance, and the cheese was gooey perfection. I also tried their craft soda and loved it — super refreshing and a nice change from the usual. Great spot in Hermosa Beach. I’ll definitely be back!“

“Samo Pizza absolutely blew me away! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was welcoming, the smell of fresh dough in the air, and the service? Next level.

Victor was very, very, VERY helpful — the kind of person who truly cares that you have a great experience. Whether it was helping us decide what to order or checking in with genuine hospitality, he made the visit feel personal.

Now let’s talk about the pizza… hands down some of the best I’ve had. Perfectly cooked, rich flavors, and just the right balance of cheese, sauce, and toppings. You can tell they care about quality. Every bite had that “I need another slice” kind of magic.

On top of all that — the prices were totally fair. Great food at a good price? Can’t beat it.

Highly recommend SAMO Pizza to anyone who loves amazing food and even better service. I’ll definitely be back!“

“The food here is so good! The portions are also huge, my partner and I only ate half of what we got pretty much and were able to have the leftovers for brunch the following day ?, and it still schmacked after being microwaved! 5/5.

Decent service, it was a busy Saturday so it wasn’t anything to complain about ??

Atmosphere was great, washrooms were clean as well.

Only thing that sucked was finding parking, but we’re not from town, so parking could just be normal for locals?

Overall, you gotta try this place. The Vicky’s Breakfast is well balanced, the Pastrami was cooked perfectly and the roasted tomato and herb salad pairs with it so well to cut through that fat. The mushrooms were a sleeper in that plate ?‍? it was delicious! The chicken and waffles were great too, batter was light and crispy.“

“Great pizza, super friendly staff“

“Delicious food and drinks!“

“When we pass this tiny restaurant, my daughter, all the time, asks for a slice of pizza. Today was the day to try this delicious pizza. Service was good, pizza was delicious. I really liked their garlic rolls. Definitely will be back to try their pasta.“

“I moved a few weeks ago to this area from NY/CT area and wanted a NY style pizza, and I believe Lamonica's mostly delivers.

The pizza is pretty good, but a lot of it depends on the warming time right before you get it. I've had slices here range from perfect crisp to pretty soggy so I would just make sure you get it warmed up enough beforehand. Unfortunately, Lamonica's has smaller slices than typical NY style which is a little sad as I've had slices in and around NY much bigger than Lamonica's but they're still big slices. They are just barely foldable but a lot of times a little soggy unfortunately.

The service is pretty hit or miss, but most of the time it seems fine albeit it seems a lot of the time that most of the employees here just don't really want to be here. However, they're all pretty helpful.

The price feels a little high, I would only come here on a lunch special (11AM-3PM I believe?) as the prices seem pretty high, about $5-6 per slice + $3.25 for a drink.

The place is so great though, as a transit nerd I love all the older subway memorabilia. The whole place just generally feels like NY to me.

All in all, the pizza is good and the place is great.“

“A small but very popular place for its exquisite pizzas.

I made 3 visits and nothing to say, it is the most accessible in that sector and its garlic bread, phew, a delicacy. I'm definitely going to try it if you pass through Santa Monica.“

“Great people and mixing food. Ask about the Korean pizza and calzone options. So good!“

“Best pizza in town. Honey garlic wings are fire. Owners are awesome. Check it out“

“Food is always awesome, just wished there was more parking sometimes.“

“great non greasy pizza Loved the dough“

“I love this pizza, I get the works, every time 🤙🏾 friendly and clean, fresh salad🤙🏾“

“At this point, I've lost count of how many times we've been at Planta and I'm so glad that this restaurant has done so well. Menu standouts include the Unagi Eggplant, Red Dragon Roll, Mushroom Croquetas, as well as the Rosarita and Oaxacan Old Fashioned from the bar.“

“Genuinely amazing. On our honeymoon, my wife and I found this place within walking distance to our hotel and decided to try it out. As a New Yorker, I had high expectations. This place blew me away! If you order from here without getting the garlic knots, you're missing out on one of the greatest plates of food in your life. Don't sleep on Varilla!“

“Absolutely loveeeeee Grandma’s pizza. The sauce is the perfect balance of tomato, herbs, and a bit of sweetness. It goes perfectly with the basil and the crust on the pizza is perfect. Wings aren’t bad but we haven’t ordered them again.“

“Picked up dinner for the family. Delicious as always. Chicken saute was perfect!!“

“Food was great and service was awesome. I was craving a slice today“

“This was my second time buying pizza here and the first time they didn’t explain very well their product, but the second time they were amazing on that, so I loved it. Every time I’m in the area is my place to go for pizza. Everything is kosher.“

“Go for the Buffalo cauliflower, stay for the wine/beer 🍔🍟🍕🥗🍗🧇🍺🍷“

“great pizza ..and by famous for their unique hot wings ,by far the best hot wings.absolutely love it.“
