"Superb food!!! We got the pesto and beef sandwiches and we shared them. The bread (pizza dough) is absolutely delicious and the sauces are to die for! The potato salad was yummy- homemade style and a great starter. The owner and head chef came And talked to us about the recipes and it was clear that he pours his heart and soul into prepping this food. The decor is great too! I am def going back to try everything on the menu. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would."

"We were excited to try this place and we were not disappointed with the main dishes which were the pizza and lasagna. They were delicious! Best vegan pizza we’ve had. The salad was so I wouldn’t order it again . We ordered the olive old cake for dessert because I read reviews at how good it was but I thought it was a bit too sweet and dry for my taste. Our server was amazing and gave us great recommendations . The reason I’m giving them a 3 stars for service is because it took almost an hour to gets our pizza and lasagna. Mind you we were the first ones seating and we ordered right away and others around us had their meals while we patiently waited ."

"We visited this new vegan Italian spot, and it totally won us over. The star of the show? Their wood-fired vegan pizza — crispy crust, rich tomato sauce, and melty plant-based cheese. Easily our new favorite. But what made the visit unforgettable was i forgot my bags after the meal. I was freaking out, but the staff went above and beyond — calmly helped me search, and found them tucked safely in a corner. We went back and everything was inside the bag. Amazing food, even better people. We will definitely be back!"

"We had heard so much about Mangiafoglie and oh my god, it exceeded our expectations. The food is plate licking good!! Everything is made in house and from the scratch including their sauces. If you read their menu, everything is of high quality, for example their gnocchi is made from purple potatoes, not just the regular potatoes and their pizza base looked brownish than the regular whitish base, so I am assuming that it was not made up of refined flour. One of the best pizzas that we ever had in life. Highly recommend the “CAPRICCIOSA”. The flavors were on spot. Very polite and friendly staff. They have high chair too. They have plates that are over 100 years old, if you look at the back of the plates, it kind of tells you a story leading up to your imagination. I thought it was so cool. This place has a nice, positive vibe. They were packed and it was just the mid-week today, not the weekend! We had to wait just a little bit before getting seated. You could expect a slight delay in the food arrival if they are jam-packed. But be assured that the food is not going to disappoint you at all. They work like a coffee shop in the morning hours. We had ordered a lot of things and absolutely loved their lemon cake, Focaccia and the Marzipan latte. Hence, we had to surely go back there for dinner. Went on a Tuesday evening , lol that’s the only evening when they are closed. So, we went back today again and very glad to have this rich experience. 🥰 I must say that Mangiafoglie is definitely one of the top restaurants that Long Beach has! Our two year old picky toddler approved the food too. He kept saying, yummy, so good. He was so happy after dinner. Seriously, I can just go on and on about how good the food and service was! And, we will be definitely visiting them again and again for sure. Vegans - guess what, their entire menu is plant based so indulge blindly in any of the items. 😀 Non-vegans, believe me you will not notice any difference because the food is just sooooo good."

"It was my 2nd time here and honestly exceeded my previously high expectations, both in food and vibes. Staff is easy going and helpful and the food (especially the pizzas) are outstanding. Each dish is so unique and thought out, like this purple sweet potato pizza! Don't skip on the 3 meatballs or Strozzapreti pasta. 2/4 of our group regularly eats meat and they were blown away how complex and flavorful each dish was. Well worth the visit. Next time I'm coming for brunch!"
