EZPZ El Segundo Pizza by the Slice: $14 Soft-Serve Combo

EZPZ Pizza & Soft-Serve, at 321 Main Street in downtown El Segundo, is one of the newest slice shops in the South Bay, and it pairs pizza by the slice with a soft-serve machine. It opened in the summer of 2026, sells New York style slices from a standing counter, and keeps the menu short enough to read in one glance. For a quick lunch near the beach cities or a family stop after a game, it is an easy one.

EZPZ comes from an unusual founding team. The shop's about page lists co-founder and CEO Beau Flynn, a Hollywood producer, alongside co-founder Marley Shelton Flynn. The pizza itself is the work of Chef Scott Tremonti, the pizzaiolo behind the shop, who was previously the founder of The Urban Oven. That mix of entertainment money and a working pizza maker shows in the details: playful names on a tight, well-made menu.

Time Out reported in July 2026 that EZPZ was now open at 321 Main Street in downtown El Segundo, and the brand has already announced a second shop in Studio City on Ventura Boulevard, listed as coming in fall 2026. For now, El Segundo is the only place to try it. The shop's own line is simple: take it to go or stay and hang.

Start with the EZ Cheese slice at $5, or $27 for an 18 inch pie. It is the plain benchmark and the cheapest way to judge the crust. The Pep is $6 a slice or $31 for a pie, the classic pepperoni step up from cheese. If you want something lighter, the Fresh Mozz slice at $6.50 uses fresh mozzarella in place of the shredded kind for a softer, milkier bite.

Two specialty slices push further. The Hottie costs $6.50, and as the name suggests it is the slice for people who want some heat. Chef T's Fennel Sausage is $7.00 a slice, named for the pizzaiolo and built around fennel-seasoned sausage, which is the slice to try if you only order one specialty. A cheese slice plus one specialty slice is the right amount of pizza for most adults.

The menu deal is The Big EZ: any slice plus a soft-serve and a soda for $14.00. Since the Fennel Sausage slice alone is $7.00, choosing it for the combo gives you the most value, and the soft-serve makes a proper dessert rather than an afterthought. Families can build the same combo around the $5 cheese slice, and every version still lands at the same $14 price, which keeps a group order simple to split at the register.

EZPZ is a counter service shop. You order at the register, pick up your slice on a paper plate, and either eat at the standing counter inside or head out to the sidewalk patio. The Infatuation described the setup as a standing counter with a sidewalk patio, which suits a short lunch rather than a long dinner. Ordering ahead online is the faster route for whole pies.

The shop does not publish a phone number, so questions go to its email address, info@ezpzla.com. That makes the online menu the best way to check what is on offer before you go. For group orders, plan to place a whole pie order online and pick it up at the counter rather than lining up for a stack of individual slices.

Because the shop is new, the menu is compact by design: a handful of slices, whole 18 inch pies, the soft-serve and drinks. That keeps the line moving at lunch, and it means the kitchen can keep every slice on the board fresh through the afternoon. If you are visiting from farther away, pairing the slice with a stroll down Main Street makes the trip feel worthwhile.

According to its El Segundo page, EZPZ opens at 11 am every day. It closes at 9 pm from Monday to Thursday and on Sunday, and at 10 pm on Friday and Saturday. The lunch hour on weekdays brings office workers from the nearby aerospace campuses, so mid-afternoon is calmer. Weekend afternoons draw families, especially once the soft-serve machine gets going on a warm day.

A late afternoon visit on a weekday is the sweet spot: the slice selection is full, the patio has open seats and the walk along Main Street afterward is quiet. On Friday and Saturday, the later closing time makes it a good stop before or after a drink at one of the bars on Main and Richmond Streets.

Downtown El Segundo is a compact grid of low buildings, and Main Street is its spine. A short walk from the shop brings you to Richmond Street, where the Old Town Music Hall still screens classic films in a vintage theater with a theater pipe organ. It is one of the more charming small-town details in the South Bay and worth timing a visit around a show.

Library Park and the El Segundo Public Library sit a few blocks away along Main Street, and the shaded lawn is a good place to finish a cone. For a longer outing, the coast is a short drive west, where El Segundo Beach and the bike path running north toward Dockweiler give you an ocean view with your second slice.
