Beachside Pizza is located in the heart of New Smyrna Beach. Family owned, Beachside Pizza serves up all local high quality favorites with a promise of friendly small town service.

Beachside Pizza opened in March of 2024, at the site of the original Manny’s Beachside Pizza.

New owners Martin and Jamie have a deep connection to this location.

Jamie, got her first job at the age of 15 at Manny’s Pizza.  She started as a busser, and was promoted to hostess and cashier. By the age of 18, she was wearing the hat of manager.

Martin Ponti, started working in the kitchen of Manny’s Pizza at the age of 17. It was here that Jamie and Martin met.

Their careers took them away from Manny’s, but never completely.  Jamie and Martin continued to live in New Smyrna, got married, and now have added three adorable girls to their family.

Over the last 22 years, many things brought them back to Manny’s. When the unfortunate news spread that Manny’s was closing, Martin and Jamie couldn’t miss the chance to bring it back to the place it once was.

 Together with close family friends, Bridget Highet and Stephen Viel, Martin and Jamie are opened Beachside Pizza in 2024. Their mission is to create a restaurant where families, visitors, and locals feel welcome and want to return week after week, and year after year.
