Great Place! I found it by chance, but am very happy I did. Pizza by the Slice, cooked to order, no heat lamps here. excited to try other items on my next stop.

Really nice little joint with some great value pizza. As someone who moved from NYC, this isnt far off from an NYC slice. Crispy crust with a good chew. Sauce to cheese ratio was good as well. No frills spot with a good slice, would recommend to all looking for some authentic pizza in west LA.

I should preface this by noting this isn't my style, I prefer a standard conventional oven parlor pizza, with a relatively thick crust, lots of sauce and cheese, and a soft, chewy crust ring. Locally, Johnnie's and Fat Tomato are my regulars. But I like a NY every now and then as a change of pace, plus they're lighter on the tummy (which is not light).

As you can see by the picture below, this pizza hits all the notes, it perfectly matches what has become the accepted definition of a NY type, at least among the online community (except for the mushrooms of course, I'd be shot for that by NY fanatics). The one bite dude would definitely approve of the structure of this pizza, the undercarriage, as he would say, is well done and crispy, as is the thin crust ring. There's no droop at all, even after the drive home, deep into MdR. Look at that 18" stand out, it's a blue veiner. It's almost New Haven crisp, without the coal and char of course.

This is the only real NY I've eaten within range, though there are shops that claim to have NY style, or even have New York in their name, with NY regalia all over the walls. So I was pretty excited when I opened the box, a true local NY. Unfortunately, when I took the first bite, my joy turned to . . . meh. Everything seems to be present in the right amounts, but there's just not much flavor at all. Odd, I don't know why, it eats right for a NY, lots of crispy sounds, but it's not dancing on the tongue. The same was true for the second try, an 18", which appeared to have a bit more cheese. I thought, this one will be better, but no, there was just nothing. I don't understand it, not at all what you would suspect by looking at this pizza.

The first time I tried adding some tube tomato paste and Parmesan Reggiano to jack up the flavor, which seemed to work well. For the second 18" I took three slices and brushed tomato paste on top, added some cheese and refreshed the slices in a convection oven. I can't really say that worked, all I really tasted was the Parmesan, and NY fans tend to eschew the sharp cheeses, the sauce is required to provide the taste.

So how am I supposed to rank this? It's a bang up five in every respect except, I don't want to eat it. I didn't even bother saving the leftovers in the fridge, no point in adding tasteless pizza to my already ample hips. I've never done that before, except for a salt-laden Dominoes in a Hawaii pizza desert. I initially gave this a 4, out of respect for the structure, but after sending the remains of the 18" down the trash chute, I'm downgrading it to a 3. It's so sad, it could easily be a killer 5, but it needs work, obviously.

Technically this is a couple minutes out of range for the MdR apartments on the west side of the marina, but the distance is offset by the ease of access, right in the Bristol Farms lot, two lights south of Loyola. It's literally a hole in the wall, one of the smallest pizza stores I've every seen.
