"Typical Newport restaurant. Over priced for what you get. Loud. Tables are really close together. Small bar. We were seated inside. I think outside would be better. Appetizers were really small. Pizza was fair. We live in Newport and dine out all the time and appreciate good food. We are completely ok never going back."

"I think paying $19 for a pizza that is considered an individual pizza is too much and then when we asked to remove 2 of the ingredients and put on mushrooms instead, we were charged an additional $5 but nothing was taken off for the 2 items we removed from the pizza. To make matters worse, we got 5 mushrooms. That is $1 per mushroom! Food tasted good but much too expensive for pizza."

"The pizza at Mozza can't be beat. Usually go to Mozza in LA but whenever in Newport, always make sure we stop here as well. Went on Mother's Day and thought it would be crowded but we were seated right away (although we had reservations). Emily was our server and she was great. We both ordered appetizers and we were served complimentary small plates of special bread and tomato/mozzarella w/pesto in between appetizer and our lunch--- a nice treat."

"Appetizers (burrarta bruschetta) and desserts (bittersweet chocolate tarte with olive oil gellatto and the Meyer lemon gellatto) were outstanding! Wine (procescco, Greco di Tufo and Sagrantino di Montefalco) were fantastic. Pizzas were just okay. The goat cheese & leek pizza was better than the salame with Fresno chilies. Both however seemed a bit average, especially compared to the other dishes mentioned.
Great, attentive service with lots of knowledge on dishes and wines. While tables are close, they are not too bad. And noise level was surprisingly not bad for such an open space.
Next time we'll try non-pizza entrees or better yet try Osteria Mozza."

"Absolutely fabulous pizza. Perfect crust with just the right amount of salt. And the toppings are inventive. Loved it. Tables are a little close together but that's the only complaint. The service was fantastic. We were unfamiliar with many of the wines on their list so relied on the waitress for a recommendation. She recommended a fantastic wine at a really good price point. Wish I lived locally so I could go more often."

"I came alone on a business trip. The staff could not have been friendlier and more accomodating. The pizza was superb - chewy thin crust properly charred and first-rate ingredients. The wine-by-the-glass list was small but had some good choices. On a Tuesday night the restaurant was bustling with large and small groups, a nearly-full bar, and a small outdoor patio area. I will definitely come back."

"I thought the food was marginal at best. The Pizza was overcooked and overpriced. The wine list was all Italian and extremely expensive. Why not offer some California wines.
The service was terrible. Our waiter was more interested in a party at the bar and when he finally showed up to take our order he had no interest in providing insights on food, he just wanted to take our order and go. I would not go back or recommend this restaurant."

"W enjoyed special tomatoes that is season for a couple of weeks on our Pizza Margarita. The desserts are fantastic from the butterscotch with burnt sugar glaze, cream and salt to the piquant Meyer lemon frozen pie. We are good friends that had not seen each other in more than a year and the server was perfect in the amount of attention and new when to leave us in the "chatting" mode."

"Mozza has great food, wine, ambiance and service. We enjoyed the apps (meatballs are very good) and the Bianca pizza and lasagna are excellent. While our server, Morgan, was very good and attentive, we felt slightly rushed. Maybe not her fault but rather the kitchen's, but servers need to be cognizant of time. Overall, a very pleasant experience."

"This was my second visit to the restaurant and both times I sat at the bar, which was my preference. Loved watching the prep going on. I was however dissappointed with my second visit and am not so sure I will be returning. The waiter did not discuss any specials..not sure if there were any. On our last visit, we were able to add sausage to our pizza and it clearly indicated it could be a pizza add on. We were told no, we couldn't do that. We could order sausage cooked and they would bring it as a side dish. Interesting. We weren't offerred the cute little bread sticks to start. Our meal lasted all of about 45 minutes as we felt very rushed. I was still drinking with my glass on my placemat when the placemat was removed."

"The food was great, as always. I was a little surprised at how much their "wines by the glass" were. For being very average wines (not well known like Silver Oak, etc.) their house Cabernet was $28 per glass! Our friends ordered 3 glasses and it cost us more then it would have to buy a nice bottle of wine! Their corkage fee is also exceptionally high at $30 a bottle. I would recommend getting only cocktails at this restaurant as they are of average price ($14 ea). Our bill for four people was over $260 and we had 4 pizzas, 2 appetizers, four glasses of wine and a cocktail. I think that is a bit much for pizza (albeit high end pizza)."

"The evening started out a bit strange. We were made to wait for our table for one half hour and initially the hostess was not apologetic nor accommodating. Due to the fact that people use the bar as another way to enjoy a meal there is not space for people to wait for their table.
Once we sat down the evening turned into pure heaven. The only let down was the fact that our favorite dish is only served on weekends. Will remember that next time.
Excellent restaurant."

"The food is fabulous here -- definitely worth paying the extra cost for the quality of the ingredients and the delicious pizza crust. The fennel sausage is out of this world. The decor is simple but sophisticated. However, the noise level and crowded conditions are ridiculous! The tables are packed together and the music and bar scene were so loud you could more easily hear the person at the next table than you could the person sitting across from you. Also, the markup on wines is crazy high (with a $30 corkage!). It's great if you want a happening scene, but not so good if, like most foodies, you actually want to talk while eating, or linger over a glass of wine."

"Have been to Mozza on many occasions but never for lunch. The day we were there I was surprise by very poor service. I always feel that the service personnel is the front lone to any business. But, it seems lately tat too many are failing in that particular department."

"We couldn't have asked for a better way to finish up our trip to Southern California. The burrata, meatballs and arancini were terrific starters and the pizza was out of this world. I was only sad that I didn't leave enough room to try dessert."

"We were ignored by the wait staff at first. Got water, ordered a drink and then no one came to take our order for quite some time. The great host that night came by and we told him and another gal who was not our server and from that moment on we got very nice service. The food was so delicious, I want to come back as soon as possible. Love the dressing on the insalata tricolore.. A little piece of Italy right here in our own backyard."

"Good but not as good as Pizzeria Mozza Los Angeles, would get a 90% compared to the Los Angeles location. Could have had more servers, slightly understaffed."

"Consistently good food. The Bianca pizza continues to be the favorite. Butterscotch Bodium for dessert may be the best ever. It is loud - many times I couldn't even hear my friend and tables are really close together."

"We sat at the pizza bar and were able to watch as the wonderful food was being cranked out! Everything we had was fresh, flavorful, and wonderful. The mozzarella with pesto and roasted tomatoes is a must eat, and the portions were all generous. From Appetizer to dessert, everything was special. We'll have to go back and try the whole menu!"

"We've been long time fans of both Nancy and Mr. Batali (btw, congrats to Nancy and her James Beard Nomination) and are becoming regulars at the Newport Beach Mozza (as I've closed up my LA home). Each and every time, from the warm greeting at the door, through every delicious meal (whether it be lunch or dinner) to the attentive service - Mozza Newport is becoming a weekly ritual for my immediate family as well as entertaining friends and clients. Enough said?"

"Best pizza ever, hands down. Outstanding Lunch! Only 2 complaints were:
- very noisy
- server gushed about a burrata special being amazing, so we ordered it (yes it was delish) but she failed to mention that it would cost twice as much as anything else we ordered. If an app is $25 & all others on menu are $8 or $12, you need to mention the price. There were other dishes on the menu with burrata, so we were annoyed when we got the bill. It slightly soured an otherwise perfect lunch."

"uncharacteristicly Newport Beach; from the attentative bar keep to our energetic, knowledgable waiter (Kevin) to the ever-so-gracious & charming manager.
With these accoutrements and an execution of simple, fresh, well prepared dishes--Mozza should be on everyone's radar."

"My friends and I have been waiting, waiting, waiting to go to Pizzeria Mozza, Newport Beach! We were thrilled to get reservations and even MORE thrilled to experience the wonderful ambiance, charming wait service and, of course, fantastic pizzas. Three of us shared two over-the-moon pizzas, the butterscotch budino e tre gelati deliziosi. Fantastico!!!"

"OUr waitress was lazy and talked more to her co-workers than the customers. We waited a long time for her to return after giving us menus and eventually the host took our drink and food order. I think we saw her twice after that.. Once to ask if everything came out, second to give us the bill. I will not be coming back and will not recommend this to anyone I know. Also I will be writing a Yelp review."

"My vegetarian friend raved about the squash blossom/burrata pizza. Best pizza she has had since her trip to Italy a few years ago. And, she lives in West LA where there are quite a few upscale/trendy restaurants."
