32 Best Pizza Restaurants in Santa Monica

“My family and I capped off a great vacation with a dinner here on a whim.
1st) We didn’t make a reservation and the host made it happen to get a party of 6 seated in no time at all
2nd) They were extremely accommodating of 3 kids in a party of 6 which many restaurants are not
3rd) Food was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. From the bread, to the pasta, to the prosciutto to the pizza, and even the mocktail. 5 stars all the way
4th) The service was tremendous and especially when our oldest son, who’s on the spectrum, lost something and the server held onto it for him, which absolutely made his day.

From a restaurant owner in New Jersey, we all left filled, happy & was the perfect ending to our vacation.“

“If I have more STARS I’ll give them more than 5!!!! BRAVO! Simply the BEST PIZZA EVER! BEST PESTO SAUCE!!! Amazing and beautiful restaurant near the Santa Monica Ocean boulevard; artfully decorated, Great Sevice! Cozy! This place is insanely a Great Gem near the Ocean, #dreamypizzalovers“

“Great service and welcoming environment. ample parking and seating both indoors and out. amazing selection of both beers and ciders on tap. my only major issue is the removal of the tip system to a forced service charge (mandatory tip) system of 18%. we ordered a single flight and a pint at the bar ourselves, no table service or any real interaction yet a tip was fourced upon us on the bill.“

“This gave me the perfect five star experience with the back area where the seating is incredible and the food would be even more amazing! I had the pleasure of a friend joining and he decided to have the fungi y truffle pizza with a Pilsner and I joined in with water and two slices of the magherita pizza! The service was incredible and the music was an absolute hit lol the bathrooms are unisex so all you have to do is lock the door. They except most modern forms of payment, and the iced latte with Carmel was the perfect way to finish of celebrating my day. There’s so many things here to try, where I am not on a diet I would have tried even more!“

“This pizza is awesome!! The best pizza our family has had in years. The service is also first class Thank you so much!!!!“

“We went to Vito’s with our son and his family and really enjoyed it. The service was very good and the pizza was great. Very casual atmosphere, which was/is great for the kids and us !

Vegetarian options: They made the pizza without the cheese and were very accommodating“

“Triple Beam Pizza isn't your average pizzeria. It's a celebration of fresh ingredients and unique flavor combinations. My experience there was nothing short of delightful, thanks in part to the friendly staff and especially Chef Juan Robles' creations.

First off, the focaccia. I can't recommend it enough! It's the perfect starting point - airy, slightly crispy, and begging to be devoured. The butternut squash option was my favorite, with its sweetness complementing the savory dough beautifully.

Next, the garlic knots. As expected, they were gloriously garlicky, perfect for those who love a potent punch.

But the real stars of the show were the pizza slices. Chef Juan Robles truly outdid himself. The corn mesquite pizza was a revelation. It captured the essence of Mexican street corn in every bite, a sweet and smoky explosion of flavor.

The mushroom slice was another winner, showcasing the depth and earthiness of the fungi. But the real surprise was the Hawaiian. Forget the tired classic! This version sported a delightful combination of prosciutto, jalapeño, and pineapple, creating a sweet, salty, and spicy symphony on your taste buds.

Each slice I tried boasted a unique flavor profile, a testament to Chef Robles' creativity and the focus on using high-quality ingredients.

If you're looking for a pizza experience that goes beyond the ordinary, Triple Beam Pizza is a must-try. Just be prepared to be amazed!“

“I came to try out this pizza because my son, pizza was really good but great. The crust wasn't my favorite, the sauce and cheese was good. I took some home and my wife liked it very much so we'll definitely come back to try the rest of the pies. Apollonia's is better in my opinion“

“The cold platter was fantastic! Love the atmosphere. Love the decor. Great experience!“

“The portion of the pizza was very large. We were both very hungry. We ordered a medium portion and worried that it would not be enough. When the pizza was ready, I was shocked. Never seen such a big pizza. The taste is also decent and I am very satisfied.“

“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.“

“Stopped in for a late night bite and was recommended the Lasagna. Let me start off by saying WOW ? not only is it homemade like Mom’s but the noodles are cooked to perfection and the sauce and cheese are bursting with flavor! Can’t wait to come back and try the pizza next time. Overall rating 10/10!“

“Nothing special about the atmosphere but they keep a pretty clean place. The lunch special is awesome.... especially in santa monica. $11 after taxes for a personal pizza, a good fresh brothers salad and your drink of choice. I've seen a lot of turnover with staffing but everyone they hire seems to value customer service. This is the place for our Wednesday lunches.“

“It was fun! And pretty environment. Food was delicious“

“great venue. great customer service, excellent appetizers.“

“I stopped in for a late lunch on a Sunday afternoon and was greeted immediately and was directed to a booth. My friend ordered the Banh MI Bowl and I told her it was very good! I've had it before. I was craving the Thai Crunch Salad, Large. I couldn't finish it so I took the rest home and had it the next day and it was still yummy. The grilled chicken in this salad was cooked perfectly and the grilled taste, amazing!! Faruq, our server was On Point and was very attentive with a smile! He definitely has pride in his job, which is rare these days. I will return to those location again!“

“Located in the food court on the top floor.
New York style pizza by the slice!
Grab a bag of Doritos or Lays for around $2.50
We got a slice of cheese pizza and a large cup of lemonade for $11.
The cheese on the cheese flavor has beautiful cheesy notes to it, it’s a step above your typical mozzarella cheese. The dough is made fresh at the shop daily.
I have to come back and trey their pastas. The meatballs look incredible and they’re steaming hot in their warmers.
You can sign up for their free rewards program called Sbarro Rewards to earn points with each purchase.
The employees were super nice. I don’t know where the line started and a girl cut in front of me and my toddler. One of the employees saw and took it on himself to ask what I’d like to order. It was a sweet gesture.“

“Good slice of thin crust nyc traditional cheese. Thin crust that you can fold, good sauce spread not too much not too thin either. It's the same size as a Costco slice at twice the cost but flavor wise definitely true NYC style. I'd buy 2 slices if they had more.“

“Great customer service, very good espresso, tasty fresh pastries.“

“Will Pizza hut's Pizza Hut but I can tell you this one isn't like one I've ever seen before it's for takeout only folks that means there is like no atmosphere and you just got to counter
The pizza is good and there's a park just up a block away where you can eat.

Parking: Pizza Hut has its own parking lot behind the building off 21st Street.

Kid-friendliness: There is no opportunity for kid friendliness

Wheelchair accessibility: They have a ramp and double doors to get up to the entrance“

“If you like Italian food, you owe it to yourself to try it here at least once.
I've been coming here for over 30 years, the food has been consistently terrific. Same with the staff, same with the atmosphere. Very highly recommended!“

“Neighborhood Italian eatery with 50% off food on Mondays from 5pm-9pm. They also have happy hour every day. I’ve been here a few times and really enjoyed the handmade pastas. The funghi pasta is very creamy with al dente pasta. The chicken and mushroom pasta is also a good choice if you want a lighter meal. They provide complimentary bread which comes freshly baked in addition to an olive oil/tapenade. The place can get quite busy but service is always nice. Indoor and outdoor heated seating is available. Credit cards accepted. Metered street parking. Overall, a cute spot for a casual date night or catch up.“

“Had a great time here dining with family and friends. The food was great! I ordered a simple Caesar salad and tried others food and all dishes were delicious. Matt our server was very attentive and kind. It made the experience even more enjoyable. Will definitely return!“

“Great service and welcoming environment. ample parking and seating both indoors and out. amazing selection of both beers and ciders on tap. my only major issue is the removal of the tip system to a forced service charge (mandatory tip) system of 18%. we ordered a single flight and a pint at the bar ourselves, no table service or any real interaction yet a tip was fourced upon us on the bill.“

“Yummy pizza. Always look for a slice of sicilian. All pies very good.“

“Had such an amazing experience at this delicious Italian restaurant! Our server Jax was super friendly and helpful. She offered great recommendations and was helpful and attentive. Food was delicious and street parking was easy. Can’t wait to come back and try other items on the menu! Thanks Jax and Felix!“

“We're big fans of this location. Yes, Domino's is a chain...but that's why the food is consistently delicious and predictable. Every Saturday night, my husband and I have a date night in and we order our favorite pizzas from this location. It's a fun ritual. I'm a big fan of the Thin Crust with Extra Spinach and he has a serious food allergy so it's a relief that there's a delicious gluten-free option on the menu for him. There are good deals, a great mobile app and easy delivery. Thank you to the hardworking team here that makes our weekly "date night" at home possible! With a toddler at home, we're grateful that someone else did all the prep, cooking and cleaning for us :)“

“Nestled within the vibrant community of The Shores, The Cafe beckons with promises of culinary delights and warm hospitality. Intrigued by its reputation for fusion cuisine and cozy ambiance, I recently embarked on a gastronomic journey to uncover the treasures hidden within.I had the chance to try their new item Kimchi Fried Rice Bowl, I was immediately transported to a realm of savory bliss. The rich umami flavors of the kimchi mingled harmoniously with the hearty goodness of the fried rice, creating a symphony of tastes that danced upon my palate. Each forkful offered a delightful contrast of textures—crispy on the outside, tender on the inside—and left me craving more with every bite. The addition of perfectly cooked vegetables added a refreshing touch, while the subtle heat of the kimchi provided a satisfying kick that lingered pleasantly on the tongue.“

“Thx for the delicious empanadas and lemon bars! So delish :)

“Cute little cafe in the middle of the 3rd Street Promenade.You order what you want at a little window and then they will call your name to come forward and collect it at the other window.Convenient and quick for when you want a small bite/dessert/drink on the go. This location in particular has a nice indoor/outdoor vibe with small tables.“

“The atmosphere was fabous. The staff were all great, friendly, and very attentive and professional. The drink presentations were phenomenal. Great time, not too crowded, so service was quick. I recommend this spot to anyone wanting to het away and have a spirited eveni ng.“
