Owners or managers, whatever they are, are miserable people. Have only been here twice and regretted coming back the second time. First time they were just pissy, didn't seem eager to want to help customers. No thank you, just grunts. Took my card, swiped it, handed it back without saying anything but the price. This latest time, I stood at the counter for 3-5 mins while the one in the hat and cargo shorts berated an employee. Something about not charging someone for something insignificant. When I asked if anyone was working the counter was told "in a minute!!" rudely. Asked her if she understood that making a customer wait while you berate your staff was not good customer service and she looked at me like she wanted to punch me. If running that place is sucking the soul out of your life, quit, sell it, whatever you need to do. Because it shows that you're miserable...

This is a nice local spot that if family friendy, with a nice older arcade area for kids to play. Their pizza is good, with lots of options. They have gluten free options as well. The service is not traditional as you order at the register and they bring it to the table, but still great for a family style pizza place. The owners are wonderful, talkative, and kind.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free and vegetarian options.
First time I went, I was a very disappointedCustomer service was not good, the two old women were so rude, I bought four drinks I couldn't drink it because the fountain drink machine was very dirty, yellow and moldy everywhere. Where the ice came from was moldy, I asked for a salad and the seeds were old, I said if I could change the salad but she said ok and she just gives me the plate like whether The spaghetti was tasteless my son didn't eat it . The only good thing was the pizza, I wasted my money. First and last time I will be there .

If you can afford a 40$ pizza, it's the biggest and the best. Just get some carrots or salad or something, because it's not a "healthy" idea, just eating only pizza. But it's time to learn what a quality pizza tastes like.Kid-friendliness: Arcade, prizes

I went in here and they were yelling at my boyfriend who has they/them pronouns. I specifically said, he wants the Hamas pizza and his pronouns are they/them. The cashier, "Wyatt", was very nice and polite young man. The manager came out and slipped me the Israel perc and told me to leave. 0/5 stars, NEVER come here.
Straw Hat Pizza in Long Beach is a hidden gem! The diverse menu offers delicious options for everyone. I loved the burst of flavors in their unique pizza creations. A must-try spot in the city!

I lived at Strawhat back in my youth, the one now gone in Torrance. Huge bummer Pizza Hut bought them out & with the exception of the few franchise locations, closed em, they were WAY better than Pizza Hut.Anyway, seems the sauce has changed & the sausage, both too sweet. Not as good as it once was.

Best pizza anywhere! I've been eating Straw Hat Pizza since 1979 and nothing compares. I fly to LA 6-7 times a year and always have time to drive to Long Beach! It's very reasonably priced, and the service is excellent. Highly recommend!
