Why you should experience D'Amore's Pizza in Los Angeles, California.
D'Amore's Pizza is a coastal pizza counter of bubbling New York, style slices, ocean-air afternoons, and the casual comfort of great pizza steps from the Pacific.
Located along Pacific Coast Highway in Malibu near the intersection with Webb Way and just minutes from the sandy stretches of Surfrider Beach and the iconic Malibu Pier, the restaurant sits within one of Malibu's most recognizable seaside corridors. Step inside and the atmosphere feels relaxed and inviting, a place where surfboards lean against storefronts outside while the scent of fresh dough and melted mozzarella fills the room. Large pizzas slide from the oven while slices are served hot across the counter to beachgoers, surfers, and locals returning from the water.

The environment feels casual and joyful, the kind of place where a slice of pizza becomes the perfect punctuation to a day spent along the Pacific.
What you should know about D'Amore's Pizza.
D'Amore's Pizza reflects the enduring influence of East Coast pizza traditions brought west by chefs determined to recreate the classic New York slice.
New York, style pizza relies on a few essential elements: thin, hand-tossed dough, a balanced tomato sauce, generous mozzarella, and ovens hot enough to blister the crust while leaving the center foldable and tender. Restaurants specializing in this style often maintain strict attention to dough fermentation and baking temperature to achieve that signature texture. In coastal communities like Malibu, these pizzerias become especially beloved because they offer something hearty and satisfying after long hours at the beach. The combination of salt air, sunshine, and a freshly baked slice has a way of turning a simple meal into a ritual for surfers and visitors alike.
How to fold D'Amore's Pizza into your trip.
D'Amore's Pizza fits naturally into a relaxed coastal day exploring Malibu's renowned shoreline.
Stop in after a morning surf session at Surfrider Beach or a walk along Malibu Lagoon State Beach where boardwalk paths wind through coastal wetlands. Order a slice or two while the energy of the Pacific still lingers in the air. Many visitors grab their pizza to go and wander toward Malibu Pier where fishing boats, seabirds, and wide ocean views define the scene. Others linger inside for a casual lunch before continuing north along Pacific Coast Highway toward Malibu's quieter beaches and scenic overlooks. Within that rhythm of ocean, sunlight, and good food, the pizza shop becomes an easy and satisfying chapter of a Malibu day.
