“ I came here once with a party of 4 right when it opened so there was no wait. Our server was very kind and offered us some recommendations on portion sizes and what to order as it was our first time here. The feel of this place is very open as the front is open to the street. There's plenty of tables including bar tables and TVs mounted on the walls. This looks like a good place to be to watch a game and enjoy pizza and beer. We ended up ordering a stuffed deep dish pizza and a thin crust pizza, which were both decent. Although be warned, the stuffed deep dish can be heavy as most of it is cheese. It was a little too heavy for my friends' and my tastes and personally I wished there was more marinara on ours. But overall, I think this is a decent pizza place from what I've tried. As for parking, there's street parking and also some smaller lots are available in the area. ”
“ Went to have a sit down diner with my husband. We parked on a side street (meter parking). Got seated right away. Order a small staffed Chicago pizza with pepperoni and bell peppers. Our waiter was very nice, she said it would take around 35-40 minutes and recommended an appetizer. We had the bruschetta and I had a pineapple cider. The pizza size was perfect for us, 2 slices each (I was truly full lol). The place was not very full, busy do from take out orders tho). The restaurant is nice, fun decorated. Recommend ”
“ My manager RAVES about this place, had to give it a try. It was super busy, we did take out @ the bar. This was definitely a pretty darn good pizza! I enjoyed that it very much. I got a stuffed deep dish planned pizza with pepperonis, olives, and banana peppers. The flavors played off of one another so well. It was delicious. Great presentation, the pizza was beautiful. It was heavy, and it kinda fell apart after cutting. I legit ate it with a fork and nice. But I definitely recommend. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT I WAITED 45MINS, but the staff was super cool and gave me a heads up beforehand. ”
“ The pie was surprisingly tasty. My partner and I decided on pizza and I wanted to try them out. We went on a Saturday night after a dodger game so the streets on 2nd was booming. We ordered the regular fries, I believe they are considered shoestring fries and those were perfect. We also ordered the Bourbon wings.... And I got to be honest, we didn't hate them but we didn't love them at all * The bourbon wasn't cooked down long enough so the taste was stronger than anything * I can't get jiggy with the maple syrup flavor * I did appreciate the bacon garnish! The pie: We ordered the the "Carnivore" *pepperoni *sausage *Canadian bacon Crust: pan Sauce: smooth Marinara ( if you don't care for traditional chunky marinara, this is the best option ) THE CHEESE PULL!!!!!! Delicious!!!!! Super tasty. Everything blended beautifully We will definitely come back for the pizza and perhaps try other menu items and drinks ... I love the vibe and there were plenty of TV's for the customers to watch. Yeah will definitely be back. ”
“ If you're looking for authentic Chicago style pizza, this place is the real deal. Located in the trendy and fun Belmont Shore area of Long Beach, this location has a breezy indoor/outdoor vibe that's complimented by large screen TVs which make it the perfect sports bar. The stuffed Chicago pizzas are legit and can take up to 45 minutes to prepare so allow time for your order. The thin crust pizzas are also very good and if you're looking for an appetizer to hold you while you wait for the main course, the meatballs are delicious. There's also a great selection or beers and other drinks. It's a wonderfully casual place that's great for a group meetup. If you leave with some stuffed pizza leftovers, you can reheat them in the oven the next day and they generally come out tasting amazing. ”
“ Was craving deep dish pizza, but have always had issues with finding a place that will accommodate a tomato allergy. I called Rances to see if they could do their deep dish with their pesto sauce and they said yes of course. We ordered over the phone since it takes about 30 minutes to do a deep dish. When we arrived, we sat down outside With our pizza salad and the wings. We got the 9 inch which was perfect for two people. It was delicious. The crust was buttery and flaky...everything I had been craving. We also had the wings which were amazing. Highly recommend you get these. The wingswere meaty and the sauce was perfection. Sitting on the patio, enjoying our pizza while people watching, made it a wonderful night. There are also TVsso we could catch glimpses of the baseball game. Again, the Service was amazing and the accommodation to our tomato allergy was something I will never forget. Will definitely be back . ”
