22nd Street Pizza

22nd Street Pizza is an American restaurant located in Newport Beach that specializes in pizza and calzones within a welcoming beachside setting. Founded in January 2021 by Laura Marroquin and Jerry Marroquin, this establishment revitalized a former shave ice shop to serve the local Peninsula community with family-friendly dining options rooted in Italian heritage.

• History: The property at 2200 West Oceanfront was originally purchased in 1963 by Nick Ursini from Bari, Italy, who first opened "The Surfer" hamburger and ice cream shop there before his descendants eventually transformed the space into a pizzeria.
• Products: The menu features specific items such as chicken and artichoke calzones served with marinara sauce alongside various pizza slices available in combination deals with beer.
• Locations: Operations are centered exclusively at 2200 West Oceanfront on Beach Boulevard, offering a tucked-away atmosphere distinct from the busy pier boardwalk front eateries nearby.

This next generation of the Ursini family continues the legacy started decades ago by serving as a gathering place for good food and refreshment near Newport Pier.
