Fresh Brothers Pizza Encino

$22 for a small personal pizza and side salad?!? That’s wild. They only offer their combo until 3pm, so if you want to have dinner here. It’s $22 for what is normally a lot less.

SERVICE 4/5
Normal friendly service, quickly in and out without any issues.

FOOD 4/5
Garlic Pesto Pasta 4/5 - love how the cheese is baked on the top (nice and crispy)
Cavatappi pasta tossed in a vibrant, herb-packed pesto sauce with garlic, Italian Seasoning, Parmesan cheese, and a layer of fresh mozzarella cheese.

Fresh Brothers Salad 4/5 - normal pre-made salad can't complain here
Crisp romaine and arugula with red onions, cucumbers and grape tomatoes, with a red wine vinaigrette.

PARKING 5/5
Easy parking in a small shopping plaza filled with our restaurants to eat at.

Fast food and pasta are unlikely combinations that you would think about when it comes to food pairing, especially good pasta, but Fresh Brothers seem to have have found the right combo. Situated in the heart of Ventura Blvd, Fresh Brothers is a casual restaurant that brings a nice twist to quick Italian cuisine, and their Garlic Pesto pasta is well worth a visit.

Usually pasta is best served on a nice plate and for you to take your time, but whether you're dining in or taking to go, the pasta comes one way here, in the take out container, and it actually works well since the top of the pasta is covered by delicious mix of melted parmesan and mozzarella cheese with Italian herbs seasoned on top. It's almost like a hybrid of a lasagna, and it makes it fun to eat since it's not just pasta. A Personal Pan Pasta, if you will.

The garlic pesto is delicious and full of flavor. I love garlic so this hits the spot! I especially love the combination of the crunchy cheese, artichoke and the savory pasta, and the portion is perfect for one person.

Even the garden salad is delicious! I'm not the biggest fan of raw onions, but here they work well to add a ting to the fresh salad and tomatoes, and the red wine vinaigrette is is cool and tangy.

Finally, I just had to try what Fresh Brothers is known for, which is their pizza, so I ordered the Charcotta pizza which has both regular and charred pepperoni, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese. A cheese-lover and pepperoni delight!

The charred pepperoni is a creative take on the classic pepperoni pizza, adding a nice playful texture to compliment the soft, fluffy scoop of ricotta cheese. I'm surprised I never seen charred pepperoni before because it is darn delicious! If you love pepperoni and cheese pizza, I highly recommend the Charcotta!

And best of all, Mike the general manager and his crew are passionate about their food. It's great to talk to him about the stories and background of Fresh Brothers and their food.

Pizza, salad and atmosphere were all just ok.

My favorite pizza franchise in LA

The cauliflower crust is a solid gluten free option only coming in medium size so plan for that.

We always get the veggie pizza with added feta and last time tried the chicken sausage pesto pizza but we sub the grilled chicken in instead of the sausage. Really enjoyed this one and just ordered both of these again.

We love the gluten free chicken bites too!

Great food and service!

All the sausages were completely burned, and the pizza was inedible and was thrown into the trash.

I ordered the annual matzah pizza for Passover! I chose the Margherita this year. It did not disappoint. It was really easy to order online without the rigmarole of downloading an app. It was ready when promised. Parking was easy. This was my first visit to this location and now that I know what a great location this is (free parking, a traffic light on the corner to assist turning left), I'll be stopping by more often.

SO GLAD they have Vegan pizza. Plant based cheese.My daughter has severe life threatening allergy to dairy and the fact that she can have store made pizza like other kids makes us so grateful.

Total disappointment! Nothing is "fresh", are you guys getting the ingredients from a can? I ordered a salad and was absolutely discouraged to eat any of it.
