Prime Pizza

I'm always looking for the best pizza wherever I go--with Prime Pizza being a larger chain, I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of their pizza! I tried their various cheese and pepperoni slices which were reheated to give you that crispy crust and melted cheese. The person who reheated our pizza accidentally burnt one of the slices, but not only did she remake our pizza slice, but she also gave us an additional free slice of a different pizza we were considering ordering originally--top notch service that reflects their top quality pizza! (My rating is mainly for the regular cheese slices/pies in order to keep the reviews consistent) Taste: 8/10 | If you get the square pizza, the crust is definitely thicker and more doughy, but overall the crust is perfectly balanced by the sauce/toppings Price: 10/10 | Price is not bad (currently $4 cheese slice, $4.75 pepperoni slice, $5 square slice), but I have to give it a 10/10 mainly for the excellent service and free slice! Vibe: 6/10 | Adequate indoor seating and free parking

Decent pizza overly priced. I went in hoping for NY style pizza. But it just wasn't that. It's a good attempt for sure. And by no means is the pizza bad. I just wouldn't get it again. Staff was very attentive. Display of the food and restaurant is good. Place was clean. They forgot my cheese and peppers. Didn't think to open the bag to check since it was stapled I figured it was in there. It wasn't. Anyways... Decent pizza. Woulda rather had dominos that's basically down the street.

Finally had an opportunity to stop by Prime Pizza's El Segundo location! First things first, I'm quite appreciative of how big the parking lot is here. If you have been to their other locations, you'll know that a lot of the locations either don't have any parking or the parking lot is not the biggest. Other than that, this location is quite spacious. Lots of room to sit either inside or outside! As far as the pizza, I ordered a sausage pizza with added meatball, ricotta, and garlic to go. The quality here is as great as any other location that I have ordered from. Definitely not letting down the Prime Pizza name! Staff here are really friendly. My pizza was a tad behind schedule on my order time, but they were prompt and had it to me quickly. Pizza was super hot at that point! Great location that I wouldn't mind actually dining in at at some point.

Ordered pizza for delivery for a work lunch and the process online was so simple and the pizza came hot & on time. I'm dairy free so I typically default to vegan pizza and have got to say that the Vegan Supreme Pizza was so delicious. So flavorful and no typical odd vegan cheese taste. Garlic knots were soft n toasty, perfectly paired with the marinara sauce. The Caesar salad was fresh, dressing was on the thicker side which I prefer! Crutons appeared house made and seasoned. Overall, such a great first impression!

Prime pizza is a nice pizza establishment! It got its fame from a 8.1 Dave Portnoy review a few years ago (though at a different location). When you walk in, you're welcomed by the smell of fresh pizzas. You just walk up to the counter and order what you like, you can grab a whole pizza or order by the slice (along with many other options pasta, apps, beer, etc.). The ambiance is casual. There were TVs playing the game a plenty of people deep in conversation, especially families of all ages. We were a little larger group, so we grabbed an Arrabiatta round, meat lovers square, Sicilian square, and some garlic knots. All the pizza was excellent. Though I do think it would've fallen slightly short of the Dave Portnoy 8.1 for us. The flop wasn't quite there though the crust was crispy! If we were to rank them we liked the dough/crust of the squares better, but the Arrabiatta was our favorite. Something about the combination of flavors, with the hint of spice just made it delicious! Oh and don't let us forget about the garlic knots! Those suckers were garlicky in all the best ways! Definitely a great add.

Came here to nab some dinner and watch the game before Christmas lights. I did hear good reviews by el presidente (Portnoy) about this spot. It's your typical sports bar type of vibe. Couple of tvs to watch Thursday night football. The food was pretty decent but nothing special in my opinion. It is worth the price. I had both the square slice and triangle, I think the crust on the square is better but the triangle flavor is overall superior. Service was good and quick. It will take about 20-25 for your put hit they are made fresh. 4 stars for me.

I freaking love prime pizza because it's the closest thing we have to NYC style pizza. The secret to all slice shops is the reheating factor and man I love it here. The slices are a big pricey but to be honest even in NYC it cost just as much (if you exclude the crappy $1.50 slices). I'd say prime pizza can definitely go toe to toe with some of the slice shops in NYC. Flavor/taste of the slices here are amazing and I love the grandma/square slices. The ice cream/shaved ice was a little too frozen so I won't be getting that again but I'm glad I found this location a bit closer to where I work. Slices came out in about 5 minutes.

We've been here a few times and the pizza is alright. They always overcook it, even when you ask for light cook and my kids think it's too burnt and crunchy. We tried the Sicilian during our last visit and it was a tad too salty. I think Fatto A Manno does a better Sicilian.

I have made a promise to myself to visit every Prime Pizza- it's serious business. Happy to add El Segundo to the list. This location is the most spacious Prime I've been to - lots of indoor and outdoor seating, and parking! I always get the same thing, Arrabbiata pizza with no onion, extra cheese. Oh and load up on those bottles of ranch. Best ranch in the worlddddd!!

I was here on Sunday picking up a pie for a family dinner. I got the Sicilian. The expected pick up time matched when I got a text telling me that the pie was ready. I dropped in and the pie was sitting with all of the other take out orders in a warming oven. I got back home about 20 minutes later and we dug in right away. We heard a lot of great things about Prime Pizza, but were a bit disappointed. The pesto and ricotta were great but the crust was a let down. I was expecting a little bit of a crunch to the bottom and the inside to be more airy, but we weren't getting that. Maybe it was an off day. I'll probably go back to try a white pizza.

Excellent cheese pie, very quick and polite service, and seems to be constantly busy ish. Food came out pretty quick and most definitely best when it's fresh (the crunch and pizza sauce were amazing). Big fan when there's a nice char on pizza as there was.

I really liked the crispness of the pizza despite it being a bit thicker. It was tasty and unique compared to other pizza places. I recommend the Sicilian for the square pizzas.

I love love pizza. It's my favorite food group lol. I've had Prime pizza from various locations and it is always delicious. I love how their slices are so big and they have so many pepperoni slices. Other pizza places barely add any pepperoni but Prime isn't stingy with theirs. Their pizza is so savory and delicious and reminds me of NY pizza. If you love pizza and great service then you have to eat at Prime. They have a big parking lot so no need to worry about that.

Had devilvery and have to agree this is one of the best pizza places in LA. Had the square spicy pepperoni and a cheese pizza. Crust on most is what makes the pizza, both perfect and not burnt at the bottom. Sauce also is great, up there with the best in LA

Love this place so much. My favorite and my wife's favorite. Simple menu, fresh and crispy , gluten free options as well. Ready made slices if you don't want a whole pizza. Strong 5 star.

During weekday lunch rush, online orders could take up to 30 minutes even for slices of pizza that just need to be reheated. However, the estimated time provided after ordering is pretty spot on, and you get a text when your order is ready. Lunch specials are about $10. One of the special is two cheese slices and a drink. If you want special pizza then it'll cost more. The pizzas are okay. Nothing special to rave about. But when there's an online coupon code to bring the lunch special down to around $7, it's a steal.

We finally tried this pizza place that had been recommended to us - and we were not disappointed. We went for the square style meat lover's pizza with added pesto. It was an excellent pizza. The crust was medium thick and leaned a bit towards the chewier side. The toppings was tasty and it was definitely worth adding the pesto. Service was great - pizza was prepared well within the time promised and they have a nice warmer oven to keep the pizza fresh before you arrive. This will now become a regular on our pizza rotation.

Wow, what can I say? The pizza was delicious. I got the round pepperoni, which was way better than I expected. I thought it was a run-of-the-mill pizza, but they surprised me. I highly recommend it. I will definitely be back. I can't wait for them to open a location in Torrance.

This place was recommended by a buddy that I played a round at the Lakes with. It was delicious! Grandmas Square Pizza (5): Kind of like a medium/deep dish. Crust was fantastic! Buttered and crispy. Good size. Grandmas sauce brought everything together and was amazing! I could drink that sauce! I just got it to go to share with family at home. Everyone loved it. Leftovers heat up nicely too!

Prime pizza has some of the best By the slice NY style pizza in the southbay! Lots of parking available in the plaza, and the workers are all very lively and fun to communicate with! There is limited seating inside and outside. When you order the pizza by the slice it is warmed up for you and if you order to go it will be provided in boxes! Loved the Spicy Pepperoni and the White Pizza!

The Vodka slice here is pretty solid too, but I prefer the Sicilian pizza and the whole pizzas in general since the crust gets very hard on the slices when they've been sitting out for a while before someone buys them. The service was pretty fast and the the ambiance is nice and give a good local pizza spot vibe.

This place has been on my list for a while. I finally tried it last night through Uber eats. I'm am so happy that I did it was awesome. 1st of all the pizza is huge, one slice can easily be two. The crust was just right not to crunchy and not to floppy. I love a large foldable NY style slice, so this was perfect. The pepperoni's on this pie taste so good with a little kick to it, I could eat a million of those little cups of goodness. The sauce was light and flavorful a perfect pair with the pepperoni's. The cheese was that real deal mozzarella cheese very tasty. This is my wife's and I favorite pies at the moment we will be getting many more in the future. Oh this location used to be the home of Valentino's pizza. That was me and my family's favorite pizza place. This Prime pizza that took it's place is 10x better for sure. I would definitely recommend Prime pizza and specifically the pepperoni pie. Thank you for the amazing pie.

The vegan pizza is in the top 3 for me. The square pizza is my favorite as the crust is thicker. The service is A1 even though they are always packed. They have a nice seating area very family oriented and pet friendly and the employees are friendly love this place

Nice clean pizza stop with seating inside and out Friendly staff Tasty pizza - crispy under carriage, no flop, regular tomato sauce, light tangy taste Lemon pepper wings the bomb

My favorite pizza place. Ample parking and the main thing is the happy staff. I come here at least once a week. The manager, Jesus, is the best. Previously, I would travel to the Santa Monica location to get my Prime Pizza fix but when the El Segundo shop opened I can easily get here in minutes from my house. My favorite is the BBQ chicken / jalapeño / Coke lunch special.

**Review: Disappointing Experience - A Pizza Nightmare** I've been a regular at this El Segundo location, visiting several times for lunch, and I've always enjoyed the Spicy Sicilian square slice. It was consistently excellent. Today, however, my experience was entirely different--and unfortunately, it was a major letdown. After a positive history with their pizza, my wife and I decided to try a large cheese pizza for dinner. I placed the order, picked it up on my way home from Top Golf, and arrived just before it was finished. The pizza was "fresh out of the oven" when handed to me--at least that's what I was told after waiting about 10 minutes for it to be ready. The staff seemed overwhelmed and a bit stressed, but I tried to brush off the attitude of the cashier. After all, I understand that the place can get busy. Once we got the pizza home, however, the disappointment was immediate. The pizza was easily the worst I've had in years. It was, quite honestly, inedible--stiff as cardboard. You could hold a slice horizontally and it would stay perfectly rigid, like a piece of scrap material rather than food. This happened right after picking it up--5 minutes into the drive home. Even more baffling, the pizza remained in this sorry state. Those $2 frozen Totino's pizzas you can get at the store and bake at home? Far superior. Things didn't improve when we got home and my wife tried a slice. By that point, the pizza was so dry that even the thought of eating it felt absurd. We could only laugh at how bad it was--it was truly almost inconceivable. I'm willing to overlook a one-time error, but this was something else. There's no way the person who boxed up that pizza didn't realize it was more of a dried-out, tasteless disc than anything resembling a pizza. It's hard to imagine how this could happen unless one of the following was true: 1. **They can't make a decent thin-crust pizza**: My previous experiences with their thick-crust pizzas were fine, but this thin-crust pizza was beyond disappointing. If this is the case, I'd strongly advise against ordering their thin-crust pizza. 2. **The pizza had been sitting around for a while**: It's possible that this pizza had been made much earlier and was simply passed off to me, which would be completely unacceptable. 3. **I was given an old, discarded pie**: Maybe the staff gave me a pizza that had been sitting around for a long time--one that wasn't picked up earlier, and just reheated or left out until it was a sad, dry shell of what it should've been. None of these possibilities are acceptable, and after this experience, I can't see myself returning. Even if this was a one-off incident, it was so egregiously bad that it's hard to overlook. There's no excuse for a pizza that's this unappetizing to be served to a customer. I don't typically leave negative reviews. In fact, most of my reviews are positive, and I don't bother reviewing places unless I have a good experience. But this time, I couldn't let it slide. I'd recommend you try another spot for pizza, because this one missed the mark in a big way.

Excellent service, DELICIOUS pizza!!! My new favorite spot. Worth the price. Definitely try the BBQ Chicken and Sicilian.

The branding for this place is really fun. I mean, come on, a pizza slice guy making a delivery and it's drawn really nicely? So good. The pizza taste is great quality. Got the meat lover's. Did not disappoint! Check it out if you're in California!

Came here on a Friday night and shared 5 different pizza slices for dinner. It was fun to mix and match and overall, it hits the spot if you're craving thin sliced pizza. I'd be curious to order a full size pizza next time because I'm not sure how long some pies sit out. That said, I appreciated that they heat up the pizza for you before serving it.

My first time ordering here and the only reason why I ordered was because I seen a post on Instagram from Richard Haynesrealestate buzzing about how good this place was and I decided to try one slice of the New York and one slice of the Sicilian pie to try it out. I placed my order on the website and when I picked up my order, I was given the oldest slices that were available because they were hard extra crispy, almost burnt and dried not the way you expect to eat a New York pizza I couldn't even fold the slice so disappointing

I was so excited to try this place after seeing it on social media but it was actually pretty disappointing.. we ordered the whole supreme pizza, vodka pizza slice, spicy pepperoni slice, white pizza slice and a salad. The pizza was floppy. The toppings on the supreme pizza would fall off when lifted. The others tasted okay.. nothing special

Cute pizza spot close to LAX. Went and got my coworkers a pizza. Davion was my cashier, super friendly great smile. I accidentally ordered a pizza pie and not a square pizza but it was still good. I don't even have a good picture of the pizza because my coworker's devoured it. Definitely recommend.

Food I got the white pizza and Sicilian pizza. Both pizza were definitely really good. The white pizza was rich with that cheese, and the ricotta was a good way to cut some of that richness. The sicilian was my favorite, it had tomato sauce, pesto, and ricotta and the flavor of the three just melded so well together. My main complaint with the pizza is that I found it to be overcooked making it crunchier than it needed to be and making it harder to bite and chew on. But the flavor is really the saving grace of the food Service/Ambiance It's a good lowkey place with that brooklyn pizza place vibe. There are some seating for those who want to dine and we get the pizzas really fast.

The best NY style pizza in South Bay. The sauce is just right and dough is good. On the cusp of being too chewy. This is the only place I'll order a pie from. I grew up in the pizzeria world on the east coast and this place is legit. The price of a pie is high compared to other places but at least they make a good pizza.

So excited Prime Pizza is in the South Bay. The workers are super nice. I would recommend calling ahead if you are in a hurry. Both tradition slice and the Sicilian style are delicious. Prime uses premium ingredients and you will be able to taste the difference.

Prime Pizza is pretty mediocre. We ordered the supreme pizza (tomato sauce, mozzarella, pepperoni, sausage, olive, red onion, red pepper) for $30 and it was just decent. The crust is pretty flavorless, but the tomato sauce was really good. Food is just okay. I would recommend just getting a few slices of what's already made, and maybe try something different. Parking is pretty easy, and the staff is nice.

By far THEEE best pizza in the South Bay ! I ordered a pepperoni round pizza and I am giving the taste a 10/10. The cheese was soft and not overpowering the taste. They could be a little bit more generous with the pepperoni. Since I ordered takeout, the pizza was room temperature by the time I got there, however that's nothing your home appliances can't fix. I also tried their vodka pasta and lemon pepper wings which I'll give a 8/10. If you're planning a pizza family night, definitely try this place. PS if you order online, you'll get a discount on your next order.

It's 4.5 star pizza. 5 stars because I don't have to go to NY for a great slice. Very impressed! Thankful for Dave Portnoy's 8-2 that made me discover this gem! Working in the South Bay, I think I'm gonna gain some weight in the future. Had a regular pepperoni slice and a grandmas square. Different but equally amazing. Slight advantage to the regular slice since it has that crunch/chew combination that I love in a slice. Perfect ratio of cheese and sauce. My go to from now on in LA!

Stopped in about noon on a Monday, lively, GOOD hip hop playing, was able to order quickly. Staff was friendly, dining area and bathroom were clean, parking was super easy and also clean. Ordered a square slice of Sicilian from the existing items ready to heat. It was ready in only a few minutes. Juicy, doughy, crisp, flavorful, and fresh, very happy! Just noticed they're open until 10p, a boon for the of us on the go near LAX / El Segundo. Will definitely be back!

Boy, was I in the ZONE! I was in complete control of my workday, just breezin' through with ease and thought I was gonna have an easy day! But then my appetite decided to throw a wrench at that flow - "WE WANT PIZZA!!!" (Insert face-palm here.) Since I had tons to do, the break needed to be quick. And I didn't want a whole pizza, the palates really just wanted a taste. Easy enough, went through the list of pizza places in my bookmarks and I was here in no time. It's a no nonsense kinda place. Simple interior decor, if at that. They're pretty popular for a lunch run, though. A lot of their tables were occupied, tons of pick up for called in orders and I was behind maybe 2 or 3 customers to put in orders. I went for a regular pepperoni and a square spicy pepperoni. Staff was nice and asked if I wanted a corner piece. "Sure!" Didn't take long before I got back and pies were still hot. Took a bite of the regular pepperoni and nothin to call home about. It was the "taste" I was looking for. I was a little nervous about the spicy slice, though, as there was only so much heat I can take. But it wasn't bad at all! It had a kick, sure, but nothing detrimental. And I'm glad I got a corner piece: the sorta-burnt corner made a difference in taste. FOOD: 4. There something about the crust I REALLY liked. It wasn't because it was cooked through-and-through (although that's always a plus.) More about its flavor. I'll figure this out hopefully on the next visit. SERVICE: 4. Staff was friendly and I loved the corner suggestion! VALUE: 5. Less than $10 (plus tax and tip) for two generous slices?! Worth it. PARKING: Private lot shared with others. Parking spots aplenty. Not an issue. OVERALL: 4.25. Fine, I'll admit, one of the reasons I wanted to check them out was because this place has the same name as my fur baby. [Insert chuckle here.] And satisfying that crave, I got back in the zone in no time! But I get why they're so popular: it's affordable and delicious! Will return as soon as my appetite screams for pizza again!

Easily one of my top 3 pizzas in the South Bay. Their square pie is the best I have ever had. Inside is a bit noisy and outside is pleasant. Great for families and gatherings and fairly priced.

A friend told me about this place and finally had a chance to try it as I was running errands and needed to grab a quick bite. Pizza can be ordered whole or by the slice. I decided the square spicy pepperoni and a vodka. It was excellent and reminiscent of a New York style. The service was friendly and efficient. Really clean and chill vibes. Music was great old school hip hop. Will definitely return!!

Service and pizza are wonderful. Owner and employees make you feel welcome every time. Pizza is delicious!

Very good pizza. Still not as good as NY pizza but over all, consistent in quality and the dough is very good. The reason they don't get a 5 star? They're a little light handed on the toppings..

Ooffff talk about quality control issues lately, today's pizza literally didn't get any sauce and was burnt. Had 2 bad pies in recent weeks. Hopefully this gets figured out.

Picked up Prime Pizza to go and it was so delicious! For $10, you can get 2 slices and a drink. I got lemonade and it looks like they make it fresh. It was so good! There's lots of different types of pizza and you can't go wrong with any of them. Plenty of parking in the location too!

The pizza was absolutely amazing scrumptious and this was my first time trying the pizza, and I could just tell that the sauce was very very very, very, very good I would get it 1 million times. This is the perfect pizza if you're sober or not sober like you're gonna get the best of both worlds very delicious 10 out of 10 also their ranch dressing is to die for 100 out of 100. I would recommend.

First time at this newest location for Prime Pizza...and it did not dissappoint!! Sometimes its hard to know what to expect when a successful restaurant opens up additional locations. But with Prime, it looks like they are doing just fine spreading their wings and expanding without missing a beat. The service was great & the food is just as good as at the downtown location. We always get a slice of the pepperoni, but this was our first time trying the white, which was excellent as well! And NEVER forget your side of homemade ranch! Best anywhere!

Just wanted to shout out Jesus and John. They are both super friendly people and I can tell that they enjoy their job. They made my experience really cool. Also, the pizza is always on point here. Great vibe all around!
