Lo Mo Pizzeria

This was our first time for me and my grandkids and when I tell you it was a 10/10, from the time we entered until we left. This is a small but big spot at the same time -the music the vibe inside ,there is a nice seating inside and outside once the weather warms up. I have to usually order extra cheese but the balance and taste of the cheese pizza / Margherita was delicious, this will be our spot for the warmer months. My grandson said this taste different and fresh he couldn't stop eating the red sauce. We will Def be back.

I enjoy good pizza and this pizza does not disappoint. Got the cheese pizza and from the moment of opening the box I knew this pizza was going to produce a high score. The crust is excellent. Yes, a little charred, but great crunch, excellent flavor on the dough and sauce and cheese executed well. Even ordered the roasted beet salad, which was not what I was expecting, but it was also very good. Don't sleep on this place. Enjoy!

Zoe took our order…welcomed us with kindness and a smile. Chris…amazing guy/owner! Great customer service and tasty pizza. We had the margarita, spicy pepperoni and the Fall Pizza. The ingredients were fresh and savory—the crust had a nice balance and “chew” and crisp. I would return! 🥳

My husband and I recently discovered this place and now it’s been a weekly pizza night for us! The margarita pizza is amazing and very fresh. The garlic knots are super soft, good garlic ratio as well. I recommend getting their house made ranch! So light and fresh, and of course delicious.

Been hearing a lot about this place online and it is definitely worth the hype!! The fact that there’s nights where everything is sold out should tell you everything you need to know! The pizza was so insanely good I wish I would’ve got two boxes! Highly recommend coming here, you won’t be disappointed

visiting from out of town and decided to check this place out. Got the spicy pepperoni with hot honey and ranch on the side and it was absolutely delicious!!! the crust is PERFECT and so nicely crispy. This pizza hit the spot!! will definitely be back. We also had the summer salad which had a delicious orange vinaigrette. 10/10 no notes!!

Very good pizza. I got the whole Margarita and the crust is nice and thin just like it should be. They are on a pricier side ($20 for the whole margarita, some pizzas are priced higher) but if you can afford it, definitely do it, you won't regret it.

So grateful to have been recommended this spot! I'm from New Jersey and lived for years in Philly and New York. I used to wait tables at Patsy's Pizzeria in East Harlem, a world famous pizza institution. Moving to Norfolk, I had tried a couple of pizza places and basically given up on finding something that tasted like pizza. This doesn't just taste like pizza, it tastes like great pizza. Thank you, LoMo. You're doing the good work! My partner is gluten free, and while there are no pizza options for him, their salads look fantastic and my kiddo and I will be loyal pizza and garlic knot customers.

This is the place to go!! Chris makes every pie with care and love. They are absolutely delicious. I cannot say enough about the flavor... you will want to eat the crust! That's how good it is. The inside is a total vibe. One wall is covered with pothos and you can watch Chris cook if you go to the side - a favorite for the kiddos! Pro tip: Order early and order ahead... they usually sell out. Ordering ahead allows you to have minimal or no wait for your pizza. 11/10 Cannot recommend this place enough! Our 4 year old asks to go there by name! Oh and don't miss out on their seasonal pies. Those are created with a lot of thought and passion. I haven't tried one I didn't love!

Best pizza in the 757!! The service was quick and friendly. And the environment was chill!! This is the best pizza in the 757!! Perfect 10/10. This pizza was light and crispy and had tons of flavor. My favorite pizza spot!!

I just had a cheese pizza from here for the first time and it was absolutely amazing!! I would have thought it was from Brooklyn NY if I didn't know better.

It's in my holy trinity of Norfolk pizza joints. Perfect char on crust, crispy outside, chewy inside, perfect thickness. Cant say enough good things about LoMo's.

Being from the Northeast, I consider myself a bit of a pizza snob. I've had some of the best in NY, NJ, New Haven, and even Naples, Italy. Ive tried pizza all over Hampton Roads - Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and everywhere in between and honestly, they all let me down. Brooklyn-style, NY-style, I'm not sure who they are fooling style?! Then I found Lo Mo one evening, and for the first time in Virginia, I felt redeemed. The pizza was fresh, flavorful, perfectly thin, with just the right amount of char. Exactly what (IMHO) real pizza should be. I also ended up talking with the owner for a bit, and his story makes the place even better. Don't waste your time anywhere else, seriously this is the spot. Norfolk has so many great food options and is really becoming a legit foodie destination. It's about time the area has finally got pizza that represents. Lo Mo is it.

In crust, we trust. Amazing crust and pizzas. My wife said the crust was like eating a cracker... so thin, so crispy. We pigged out with a summer pizza and a spicy pepperoni pizza. The pizzas were so flavorful there was no need for sprinkle cheese, hot pepper flakes, or salt. Honestly the best pizzas we've had in a long time. It's a cozy place with a small bar, several tables and several outdoor benches. We sat at the bar. It apparently does a great deal of carry out business. The front staff was knowledgeable and friendly and the owner and the employees in the back did a tremendous job with the pizzas. Dining is very casual with plastic utensils and paper plates to accompany your pizza in its pizza box. The beer selection is limited, but we were able to find a couple that we enjoyed. A larger selection of beers would have catapulted it's rating to a five (sorry, I like beer). It has a small private parking lot. We did not observe any restrooms.

Hands down the best pizza in the area. I went to school on long island and this is the closest you can get to thin crust pizza reminiscent of the area. Great flavorful and seasonal selections, a curated wine and beer menu, and the best garlic knots in the area. The star is the process - the pizza is cooked to perfection every single time, no matter the toppings. The homemade ranch is also worth the splurge. Don't miss out on Lo Mo!

Pizza is very good. I still patronize when I am in the area and have time to spare. But I have to add this .... Just say the pizza will take an hour or more when they place their order. Stop telling folks 30 minutes. It. Is. Never. 30. Minutes. Never.

I have driven past Lo Mo so many times and finally had the chance to stop in. AMAZING!!! We started with the summer salad and garlic knots. The salad was super fresh and had a great tangy vinaigrette. The garlic knots were SOO good and had confit garlic and lots of pecorino... it was everything we wanted. From there, we knew the pizza was going to be special. The PIZZA!!! We got the pepperoni (pepp)and it was a perfect pie. The crust had amazing color, chew, and was so thin it almost melted in my mouth. The crumb was perfect, there was stellar blistering, and the slice was structurally sound: NO FLOPS! This is now my pizza place forever!!

visiting from out of town and decided to check this place out. The service was amazing and the ambiance was so nice. We got our food and ate outside. Got the spicy pepperoni with hot honey and ranch on the side and it was absolutely delicious!!! the crust is PERFECT and so nicely crispy. This pizza hit the spot!! will definitely be back. We also had the summer salad which had a delicious orange vinaigrette. 10/10 no notes!!

We love to get takeout pizza from Lomo! They are always fast and efficient. Their staff is kind and friendly. The restaurant is rather small with a few tables to eat in. There is about 10-12 parking spaces out front. We normally just get either the cheese or pepperoni and we ALWAYS get the garlic knots. They come with knotty sauce but I normally opt for the garlic confit it is AMAZING if you are garlic fan! :) (i ate the garlic knots and forgot to take a pic) We will be here again and again

I know people complain that there aren't any real pizza spots in the Hampton Roads. Well, Lo Mo is the real deal. I have a tradition of celebrating events with pizza. I'm so glad I chose Lo Mo this past celebration. Look at this pie and tell me it isn't beautiful. Let me tell you, the spice was there but the pockets of ricotta made the perfect balance. The pizza was cooked right (it wasn't a soggy, floppy mess like so many places), the sauce had good flavor, and the basil was fresh. They have a decent sized dining area. It was a take out order, so I can't speak too much about the service. But from the little interaction I had, they were very friendly and my pie was ready pretty quickly. I won't yet hail it as the best pizza in the area, but I honestly can't think of any contenders. Keep it up Lo Mo!

Pizza was pretty good and honestly the place was probably a 4. Limited seating inside but the vibe was solid. What makes it a 5 for me was the staff. The guy who made our pizza came out and talked to us for a bit. Wicked nice guy.

Oh how I love my Lo Mo Fridays. Yes, almost every Friday my boyfriend and I now get a large pepperoni pie with a side of their homemade ranch. This place is amazing, and nice take on a NY pizza. Now you all know as a NYer I always gotta have my take on pizza lol. The pizza here is amazing. It gives an air of the old school pizza parlors back home in queens. Thin, perfect amount of sauce, and a crispy crust that you wanna dip! Love dipping my crust in their ranch, and I'm not normally a ranch girlie when it comes to pizza. This place does what they do exceptionally well, and I couldn't ask for more from a local place! The service is always quick and friendly. Even when I go inside to pick up the inside of very cute and intimate. Perfect place for a nice bottle of wine and a pie. This is for sure a gem in Hampton roads in terms of pizza. Get there quickly, they sell until sold out! (Lets you know it's fresh!)

The crust was prefect! Thin and crispy with the airy fluffy outer crust. I liked the more dynamic flavors of the winter pie (kinda spicy but with sweet onion). The fungi pie could have used something to make it pop, like fresh herbs or a glaze. The pizza maker seemed very friendly but the lady at the counter didn't seem to really care, almost bored with my questions. The inside was very cute and chill.

Terrific pizza!! Thin crispy crust!! Toppings divine. But honestly it's all about the crust and LoMo nailed it. Best in Norfolk.

Let me just say, pizza is a food group for me! I can eat it any time of the day. Tonight we visited LoMo and I (we) had a great experience. The shop is a smaller place so don't think it's going to be easy to roll up w/ a party of 10, but I am certain they'd do their very best to accommodate you! It's dimly lit so there is no commercial feel, tasteful music was playing and the vibe was good. We ordered the spicy pepperoni with roasted garlic (comes on the side in oil, very yummy addition to mine) and the hot honey to drizzle. We also each had drinks and we got a bottle of sweet red wine. The pizza was delicious. Sourdough crust, which wasn't too dense. The edge crust was kind of airy, which, I liked (and no complaints from my son or his girlfriend). It had fluted dollops of ricotta and basil leaves, giving it a fresh touch. I'm assuming it was the owner who came to our table and asked how we liked it. We gave him props because it was good! He was very friendly. We will be back, you should def give them a try!

Was in the area, and thought to try someplace new. Saw how good the ratings and pictures were and thought it'd be a good place to try. I have to say, I am glad I picked up a box! It was crispy and thin, and the sauce was flavorful. Cheese was nice, if you're looking for cheesy though, this isn't the pizza for you. It's just the right amount. It also wasn't greasy, which is always nice. The crust is chewy and crisp, not my favorite, but still really enjoyable. Overall, definitely will go here again if I'm close enough, and if you haven't been here and can, please do. You won't regret it!

Literally writing this review as I'm eating the pizza. This place has delicious pizza, and the people are very nice. The inside of place is super cool with chill music to go along with it. Would definitely recommend!!

Nice pie, thin crust that was perfectly made. Garlic knots were very good but be advised you get a large number of huge knots! Lots of leftovers which is a great thing!

I've been following LOMO Pizzeria on Instagram for months now, patiently waiting for them to open up, and I'm glad I was finally able to try it! FOOD: We ordered the spicy pep and their garden salad. Their ingredients are legit from a local garden, and you can taste them! Props to the owners for being so intentional about their ingredients. The crust is too crunchy for my taste, and the big pieces of cheese are a sweet touch but not my favorite. SERVICE: I called in advance to place an order, and the young woman on the phone was so nice and accommodating. She said my order would be ready in 30 minutes, but I was an hour away, so she said she'd adjust the time they'd start making the order so my food wouldn't be cold. When we picked it up, the place was packed! There was a vibe in there of camaraderie and positivity. I loved it. LOCATION: Can I say how much character this place has? I mean, the subway tile, the tomato jars as decoration, and the picnic tables as outdoor seating. So much thought went into the details of this location, and I really appreciate that. There are 6-7 parking spaces in this lot. Will I come back? YES! I plan on it since we can just ride our bikes here. I hope this business thrives!!! You guys deserve the best. We need more places like this in this area.

We ordered a large cheese pizza and garlic knots. Both were delicious. The pizza was New York style big slices. Perfect ratio of cheese to sauce to crust. The garlic knots were decadent doughy greasy and yummy.

Lo Mo is making some of the best pies in the 757, hands down. I'm a native New Yorker and a total pizza snob, but Lo Mo has made me happy every time I've gotten a pizza from them. The crust is perfect, thin, light, crispy, burnt in just the right amount, while still foldable. The pepperoni they use is really excellent too. The spicy pepperoni is really interesting, I love Calabrian chilies as they always give a nice kick, and the ricotta is a really nice balance to that. The service is always friendly too. I do wish they had some customizable options on their pies, you can't just pick your own toppings like Italian sausage, onions, mushrooms, etc. That being said the Margharita and the two pepperoni options are right up my alley. This is a great little pizza spot in Riverview!

As promised, here is the post 6 month review: they got 5 stars again for improving on the timing which was my only concern. Good pizza and excellent, friendly staff. No issues at this time. We enjoy our weekly Friday pizza nights with them via take out.

Can't say enough good things about this place. Best pizza I've had in Virginia. Inside is cute and homey. I probably eat here 3 or 4 times a month since I'm in va Beach. Highly recommend the cheese pizza, its like a mix of an authentic italian pizza and a ny pizza. All of their pies especially their seasonal ones are great. The staff and zoe at the counter are extremely nice. They can get busy and or sold out, but that's a sign to tell you they're good. Definitely worth the wait!

Dropped in last night and was very happy. I'm a pizza snob and this place had some of the best pizza HR has to offer. Perfect crust, undercarriage and cheese. I also usually hate pizza toppings and only do plain cheese but we did the spicy pepperoni and that was also amazing. Definitely coming back and would recommend as one of the best in Hampton Roads. Staff was super friendly as well.

Lomo is Bueno! Thin crispy crust NY Style, bake resembling Chelsea Bakehouse wood fire oven. I questioned a "Potato" pizza but it works, flavor and texture; though not something I would pair, "Fall" was also good but I like squash and prosciutto. Gotta say Cheese and Margarita varieties were top notch. Love that they're in Riverview. Can't wait to try the Winter season offering (super secret apparently) and deconstructed cheesecake!

I've lived in Norfolk for about a year now, and I haven't found a better pizza spot than this. I'm surprised this place isn't slammed at all times of the day. I've had the pizza from New York, and I can tell you this is on par if not better than those places. Spicy pepperoni and the margarita are the best options, and the garlic knots are doughy and flavorful. All of their pizza is great.

By far the best pizza anywhere around here. Amazing value for what you're getting. They do occasionally sell out so just know that but that should let you know how good it is.

So amazing I went back two days in a row. Very flavorful and all ingredients are so fresh. If I could give more that 5 stars I would!! Just an overall work of art!!

This pizza was actually delicious. And not because it looked like it. No, because it tasted like it. I had the pleasure of having the spicy pepperoni and the way it immediately filled my nostrils with an amazing scent of their pizza was amazing. Not to mention the service was amazing. I was greeted immediately by an amazing employee who took no time in making me feel welcomed and recommended what they are known for. I don't do reviews, this is actually probably my first one but the truth is, I love pizza. I love good pizza. I love pizza when it isn't just made in the morning and reheated when I order it. I love when pizza just does its thing. When it doesn't feel like I ordered it from a chain and is made so fresh you burn your mouth because you are so impatient to have a bite and don't let it cool down. The ambiance is nice. The weather right now is a little cloudy and fresh. I ate this bad boy outside in their outdoor seating and I actually very much enjoyed it. This is sweet for a small date night or a random weekday night out with friends. I beg you to try this place if you enjoy amazing pizza and even better down time

Food quality and execution are top notch! There are two things that make them different: 1. The quality of the crust - the right amount of chew, that is thin but still holds the ingredients, plus the toasty edges and bubbles add extra deliciousness! 2. The pizza sauce is delicious, simple, and is not overly sweeter like SO MANY OTHERS. Their wine selection provides a perfect blend of options for premium wines that are value priced. THANK YOU! This is the best pizza I have had in the area, and their food can compete against any I've ever enjoyed. I have lived in NYC, SF, Seattle, and Europe and I believe LoMo would be successful in any of those places.

YUM! Delicious new pizza spot! Definitely recommend to try this summer! Spicy pepperoni was a first for me, but was incredible. They offer outside seating which would be great in the evenings.

INCREDIBLE. The thinnest pizza we have ever had. I was glad it was so thin so I could keep eating more. The best pizza in the 757. House ranch is worth it. A must stop! Nice people all around.

So this is my fourth yelp review in 10 years. This place is amazing! The pizza is unbeleivably good. Not sure how they make their dough so good. They have inventive and fun pizza choices. The summer pizza is beyond words. I got to meet Chris and Cody the geniuses behind these pizza creations. Good people, good pizza.

The pizza was incredible. Perfect NY style pizza. Thin, great undercarriage, and great crust. Very friendly as well.

Great pies! Hours are a little weird and days they are closed but the pizza was delicious. I got one cheese pie and one pepperoni pie. Can't post a pic cuz the family destroyed that sh*t!

We got a half cheese half pep and it was amazing!!!!! So good and fresh! 11/10! They have a 9.0 on One Bite but they really need a 10. My picky 3 year old ate a whole slice by himself. RARE

Ordered on DoorDash and had a great experience. The pizza has some of the best crust in the area. The flavor profile on the spicy pepperoni pizza was awesome paired with the ricotta cheese. In my top 3 spots in Norfolk for pizza!

Had to wait 15 minutes after food was promised. Had the spicy pepperoni pizza. It was good but not orgasmic (as some fans have indicated). Pleasant atmosphere.

Got takeout for my first, and last, Lo Mo. read the reviews that raved about garlic knots. My fav. Lo Mo's we're big, doughy, dry gobs of dough. Plenty of garlic but little olive oil and/or butter. Oh and the knots sauce? Some strange mayonnaisey concoction. Just a lil red sauce please. Some things are better left original. The pizza was meh. They don't lie when they say spicy pepperoni. Very thin crust, fine sauce, little cheese. And all this for 37.00 before gratuity. Pretty disappointing considering the hype.

Great hole in the wall to go to if you want unique pizza. You won't be disappointed with the taste.

Found this pizza delicious. Thin, crunchy and really like a NY pie. Only done take out and pizza has always been fresh and hot.

Mmmm. Pepperoni pizza with ricotta is a must!! I highly recommend Lo Mo! I already can't wait to go back!!

We had the spicy pepperoni pizza & absolutely loved it! The basil is literally freshly picked, right before your eyes Their pizza is more expensive than a Domino's or Pizza Hut but it is worth it! The ratio of topping to crust is just right. The hotness level is spot on. The pizza looks IG-worthy. Service was prompt. The place is on the smaller side and can only accommodate a few groups. My fiancé & I ate there & he enjoyed some beers with his pizza. We didn't expect that there was a large selection of alcoholic beverages like wine & beer. Overall, our experience was great & I would recommend !

The crust on the margarita pizza is absolutely amazing! We very much enjoyed eating here for the first time.

Best, delicious pizza ever! Quick service with a delightful smile. Staff were very friendly! Will be back again and again. Thank you!!

So, I ordered a pepperoni pizza and garlic Knotts. Let's just say...I was deeply disappointed with the food I ordered My pizza arrived cold, over cooked, dry, and greasy. Ordered garlic Knotts, and I got steamed rolls Doused in old garlic butter. Not worth $50!!!​

Best pie in the 757! You can taste the love in every slice. If you like your pie on the thinner side but still carry a hearty, rustic bite, you cannot go wrong with this place. The people and the service are also absolutely awesome! I can see them outgrowing the space soon enough with how good their food is but it's a cool, casual vibe hangout spot, for sure.
