Reviews Mozza Newport

Stopped by here on a weekend night near closing(I think 8/8:30) as that’s the only time they had available for reservation. The had an extensive amount of items from food to wine. We ordered some drinks first then all the other food items. I don’t know if it’s because it was busy and we stopped by near closing but I recommend ordering everything all at once via drinks and food otherwise you are going to be waiting for a LONG time just to even get your order in. The salad was more than enough to share for a table of 4. Margarita pizza was great, the crust on the pizza was quite crispy but also soft and chewy in the middle, a great tasting crush/dough overall. The fennel pizza has huge chunks for sausages that needs to be broken up, especially if you’re trying to share, tasted like a finer sausage pizza. Mushroom pizza had its own creaminess and had a bit of gaminess from the mushrooms but not over the top which I enjoyed, just enough. The lasagna looked burnt on the outside but was quite crisp and had a green/greens infused layers of pasta dough, it was creamy in its own way. You definitely need to order at least 2 to share decent portions split amongst 4 people because it was quite small. The portion of the lasagna was enough for 1 person. All were quite delicious but I’d definitely go for the margarita pizza as with the mushroom one as well. I’d definitely stop by to try some other items that also caught my eye. Decent place to stop by but depending on time of day, get ready to order all your items without pausing or waiting because you might end up waiting for a while just to get in your items.

This was out first time at Mozza. This is such a fantastic restaurant with a very special and relaxed feel. The service was superior and the food was super fresh and flavorful! We were there to celebrate my sons birthday and this was the perfect spot to celebrate. Comfortable atmosphere and beautiful ambiance, we are so glad we picked Mozza to celebrate this special occasion.

This was my first visit to Pizzeria Mozzarella and just happened to be for my birthday. Quaint, adorable setting with views of the cooks and pizza oven. The bar seating is lovely facing PCH. The outdoor dining section is like a charming outdoor garden feel. I chose the mushroom pizza. The bursts of Italian flavors were extremely satisfying. I can’t wait to go back and try more. The waiters were extremely attentive, friendly, and helpful.

First of all, the food was outstanding. Everything we had was delicious. The Mozza Caprese was actually burrata so it was suggested we get the Pane Bianco with it, which I also highly recommend. The spaghetti cacio e Pepe was delicious as expected. The speck pizza was very good but did not have any base sauce. I’m not sure I’d get it again but if you like the ingredients listed on the pizza, you’ll surely enjoy it. I was surprised at the serving size of the coconut stracciatella and it was delicious. First impressions upon arrival weren’t great. There was a line of cars trying to figure out where to park. There were cars pulling forward and backward trying to make room for valet. McDonald’s and Ferrari lots have no parking available for Mozza so you’re basically left with street parking or valet. Mozza turned their parking lot into outdoor dining so they basically added more seats but removed their parking which obviously stressed the street parking situation even more. I dropped my fiancé at the door while I had to drive down the PCH quite a ways to find street parking. When I made it inside, the waitress was friendly and promptly and asked if I wanted anything besides water. I replied I needed a minute to see the menu but it ended up taking quite a long time for her to return. They sat us in the corner against the wine storage and ended up having to ask my fiancé to move twice so they could get to the wine. The bathroom was a mess. Overflowing garbage with towels all over the floor. Empty tissue box. No soap in the soap dispenser.

Great service! We had some mess with our reservation and the manager Hendel it quickly and find a table for us!! Food is delicious ! It's definitely the best pizza we ever had!! Was perfect! Thank you.

If you’ve ever experienced pizza in Napoli then you must try Mozza pizza! Even no carbs fanatics are unable to resist eating this crust. Exceptional service combined with quaint ambience that offers a dining memory that you’ll hold true to your heart forever.

Delicious!!! First time trying this restaurant and it was so yummy!! From the valet, to the seating host to the wait staff! Everyone was on point. Our waitress Erin C was wonderful and broke down the menu for us and made awesome recommendations. Definitely coming back!

My absolute FAVORITE pizza everrrr!!!! We love Pizza Mozza so much. The food is always delicious and the service is always outstanding! When you visit, please ask for Cristo. He is the worlds best waiter! You will love all of his recommendations!

My wife and I's third time at Pizza Mozza, but first time at their new Newport Beach location. There is no loss in quality and it was actually my favorite experience to date. The food was sensational with the kitchen firing on all cylinders. Our server was highly knowledgeable about the entire menu from apertifs to desserts. Overall you won't find a more fairly priced and delicious dining experience in LA. Do yourself a favor and get to all of Nancy Silverton's Mozza Complex Restaurants. The meal consisted of: Mozza Caprese - order this every time. The tomatoes are among the most fruitful and fresh I've ever tasted and the buffalo mozzarella is creamy and delicious . Margherita pizza add Fennel Sausage - perfect chewy crust with incredible flavors. Ricotta stuffed Squash blossoms - a unique bite where the creamy ricotta pairs so delightfully with the salty and bitter squash blossoms. Spaghetti w/ summer truffle - handmade pasta remains the star here with light summer truffle, cheese and butter adding richness and depth to the dish. Ribs Al Forno - dry rubbed and delicious as can be. The meat pulled off the bones effortlessly and with so much flavor in every bite, you can't help but keep eating these. Butterscotch Budino - a salty sweet dessert that dreams are made of. An absolute must if you have not had it before.
