About the Business

Specialties

Domenico's was one of the first restaurants to serve pizza in California and is famous for our amazing Italian inspired dishes. We strive to maintain the original recipes that have made us an institution while often introducing new favorites.

History

Established in 1954.

Domenico's is one of the first restaurants to serve pizza in California. In 1954, Domenico and Beverly Spano opened Domenico's in the Belmont Shore area of Long Beach. With a simple menu consisting primarily of made-from-scratch pizzas and the now famous house salad, Domenico and Beverly introduced their Italian far to the Long Beach locals. Before long the ground sausage, ground pepperoni pizzas, and the creamy garlic salad dressing became Belmont Shore traditions. Dom and Beverly soon opened Domenico's locations in North Long Beach, Lakewood, Hawaiian Gardens, and Santa Ana. Proprietor Mike Rhodes continues the traditions that have become synonymous with Domenico's. The original recipes are still being followed, and its business has grown to new heights. The menu now also includes many delicious pasta dishes including Sausage Tomato Cream, Chicken Basil Cream, Angel Hair Chicken Fresco, and much, much more.
