Gina's Pizza

I KNOW THIS IS LONG! But it's worth the read! Sometimes the experience at a restaurant isn't always about the food! Yes! It's important to get good food for your hard earned money! But sometimes it's the employees that TRULY makes a BIG difference! I had a late work day. I'm single and didn't feel like cooking because I was tired. I called a single friend of mine and he joined me for dinner. It is Taco Tuesday! But I wasn't in the mood for Mexican food. It seems like I had eaten it too many times this past week. I was REALLY having a craving for Italian food! Spaghetti in particular! I told my buddy, and he suggested Gina's Pizza and Pasta in Corona del Mar! So off we went! When we got there, it looked like they were closing the dining room. (Chairs on the tables) Ugh! We didn't feel like getting it To-Go! Well... That's where "THE" employee comes in...DAVE TODD was nice enough to let us sit and eat! He was beyond kind and truly made us feel like it was no problem! AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE! Dave is a SUPER nice guy! You really do feel like family here! No kidding! Oh yeah... AND... The spaghetti was off the charts! It was DELICIOUS! Pink sauce, sausage, and garlic toast! Yum! ALL the employees were incredibly nice! And I mean ALL of them! One guy was going home for the night and when he was leaving, he waved to my friend and I and said: "Good night, guys! Thanks for coming in!" Blew me away! Who does that these days? It seems like customer service is a thing of the past! But not at Gina's! I'll be back again and again and again and again and again! I saw SO MANY great things on the menu that I want to try!A great BIG THANKS to the owners of this fine establishment for hiring amazing people!

First time here. It's OK I'm glad they have lunch specials but pretty pricey. In my opinion I got the side salad and a slice of pizza with a cup of water came out to $13.99For every topping you add it's $2.99 that's stupid expensive for one slice of pizza and a topping I should have just stayed with the cheese I just don't think it's worth the price.Glad I tried it once, that's where it will end for me.

Went to Gina's for my first time yesterday, and I left very happy. My wifes family swears by this place, and they did not disappoint. Tiny little hole in the wall, cozy seating, and great service. Pizza was good! Not the absolutely best, but it was good. I am vegan and they do cater to that diet which is the best part.

We've ordered pizza from here for years. Usually call in. But this time used Uber Eats. Not sure if they use lesser quality ingredients when it's thru UE but this time the pizza was awful. Crust was dry and tasteless. I thought it was frozen supermarket pizza. Might try again but this experience was awful.

Always our families favorite pizza! We come from Seattle a couple times a year and we always look forward to Gina's! We always get take out. So I don't know what it's like to eat in the restaurant. Service is always friendly, pizzas have always been correct, fresh and hot, prices haven't changed much over the 10 years we have been coming. My favorite part about Gina's? They don't try to make their pizza "interesting" or "bougie" they just make traditional pies and they do them so good!! When you are craving pizza and you imagine what you want- cheesy, saucy, meats, Italian, on top of a perfectly thick crust- that's what they give you at Gina's.

So it's been over 5 yrs from my last review. Update.... The place hasn't changed even after Covid like so many other establishments have.This time we took my family along with us. Son, Daughter in Law, and two grandkids. I wasn't too hungry so I just ordered a slice of cheese pizza knowing I'll feast off everyone else's entrees.Service - 5 Stars, so attentive Wife's meal - Sicilian Chicken Fettucine Alfredo 5 Stars. Noodles were perfectly cooked Al dente. Garlic Alfredo was yummy and it came with 4 slices of Garlic Bread.Son's Meal - Chicken Palermo Alfredo pizza 3 Stars (for me) crust was perfect but Alfredo on pizza just isn't my thingDaughter - Maui Mamma pizza 5 Stars. Standard Hawaiian with pineapple, Canadian bacon, plus regular baconThe fun item was the BiggaSlice of Pizza for my Grandson. 14" thin crust slice. Add toppings that you like, for him, Pepperoni and Black Olives. It was bigger then his head

Gina's is my go to spot. I'm not a pizza person however when I crave it this is the place. They prepare it as I like it no red sauce garlic olio sauce. Made to perfection. Customer service really needs to improve. Dear owner please train your employees how to meditate, handle conflict resolution and own it when they are the ones who cause the mix up, delay or mistake. Make it right , the customer should owlways be accommodated, wither discount , free cookies something. We are your bread and butter, without us you would be shut down. Every time I go I have the same problem as most who post here the orders are never ready, and others are prioritized before others. With only apologies.I ordered a personal pizza stated it would be about ten minutes. I waited 30. People who oelreded after me got theirs. I had to keep asking and finally after the 5th time they said it's coming in five. The atmosphere is cozy, good for dates and friends. Clean. However the restroom needs help. Pick up parking. Located in the mothers shopping center.

This pizza is good. Glad we stopped in for a slice. Crust was crunchy and toppings were piled high. I will definitely be back. Great vibe from employees and even customers that were dining in. Definitely give this place a try.

The pizza slices are ginormous! My thumb to pinkie measures 7" and my slice was at least 3-4" longer. Very much worth it. I'd like to try the meatball sandwich next time and order a full size pizza. The staff was very friendly.

June provides excellent service at the location. He has a stellar attitude and made the whole experience eating here far better. He even went out of his way to shim a table so it was stable for customers. Seems like he's a great part of the team and I hope he's valued for the good work he does, he earned this 5 star. The pizza was pretty good too. Prices were fair and the fine in area was pleasant.
