Wood-fired sourdough pizzas with creative toppings and ice cream
"The crust at this cheffy pizza spot is a gorgeous cross between sourdough and New York style, with a crackly crunch along the bottom and those leopard-spotted ends we know and love. The greatest pie in the house is the LBC, a classic cheese pizza topped with fennel sausage, pepperoni cups, and cute little dollops of ricotta for a bit of creaminess. They also have a thin, foldable bar pizza on the menu called The Heights which is so crispy it’s suggested you eat it hot from the oven rather than taking it to-go. With just a few bistro tables inside, Speak Cheezy makes for an exciting (but low-key) lunch move, or a takeout spot you can brag about to anyone who will listen." - garrett snyder

"I noted Speak Cheezy as another pizza staple on Retro Row." - Farley Elliott
"I'm reporting that Speak Cheezy in Long Beach, a young pizza business, was broken into last weekend: an unknown person made off with a safe and a bunch of money, and there are worries this could be the same person behind several other recent break-ins on the same strip." - Farley Elliott
"Longtime mobile pizza van owner Jason Winters found a permanent home for his sourdough, double-baked pizzas in Long Beach. Expect pizzas to come out quickly with a charred, crackly crust. The menu features the classics alongside noteworthy toppings like ranch chicken and spinach with za’atar and feta salsa verde."
