24 Best Pizza Restaurants in Sherman Oaks

“Such a wonderful vegan oasis in the San Fernando Valley! As locals know vegan offerings in the valley are limited compared with the rest of the city. I am so happy that I found this place I will be coming here often! Great food and atmosphere all around!“

“NYC cheese slices are my jam, and we have an embarrassment of riches in Sherman Oaks. Within a mile of each other, there are three, count 'em three, authentic NY slice shops. My son and I visited all three of them on a self-guided cheese slice tour of Sherman Oaks. Pizza Wagon was stop three on the tour!

The atmosphere is good...NY decor on the walls in what feels like a truly neighborhood / not-chain space. The service was great too...the staff worked quickly and were abundantly friendly and helpful.

They do a good job with authentic style slices...the right amount of crisp on the crust and a good ratio of sauce versus cheese. The chew was good, though both the crust and sauce don't quite have the superior flavor profile of the nearby places.

It's definitely a good alternative to those, though, and miles ahead of the major chain pizzas in terms of NY style.“

“My husband and I just recently discovered this Gem about little over a month ago . We’ve already been here twice and Oh my goodness this place is amazing!!!!!!! First and foremost, the customer service is top tier!!!! Mike is absolutely amazing , he’s very attentive and has such a beautiful soul . ☺️ as for the food , it is absolutely delicious!!!!!!!! The pizza is soooo good the first time we went I had the Margherita pizza thin crust, the second time I went I had a classic pepperoni thin crust , both times were delicious.

“The dedicated staff at Pizzana deserves acclaim and appreciation. After a crazy night of delivery service fails, dropped drivers, unreachable Chow Now representatives, more delays, and remade orders, Kevan drove our order over themselves. It was a late Valentine dinner, not what we expected at all, but Pizzana made good on their end of the delivery and the food was great. The people at the restaurant were kind and gracious at every turn. Thank you Pizzana for being the best.“

“They are the best of the B E S T! We love them! The experiences I've had there are mind blowing! 🌋🔥☄“

“I asked my husband to find a cute + cozy Italian restaurant for Friday night dinner date, and we found what we wanted and more! Low lighting, but not so low you can’t read the menu. Quiet enough to hear conversation, but not awkward-quiet. And the service was top notch, nothing about the spot was pretentious, and the food was tasty. The owner (or maybe maître d’?) Vasak was so sweet and greeted us with a huge smile. He had us come to the back to taste all of the wines because I didn’t know which one I wanted, and he brought tiramisu on the house at the end of our meal. The whole staff was friendly and fast, and they all seemed to know the guests who walked in—big smiles, hugs, handshakes, “see-you-in-a-couple-weeks”. We got bow tie pasta with pink sauce and their house made gnocchi with pesto cream sauce; perfectly al dente and perfectly salted. I’m going to bring all of my friends!“

“I’ve been to the other location in Beverly Hills and this one is just as good! Love catching a New York slice in LA, or in my case the entire pizza! This is a great place to unplug from your day to enjoy extremely good pizza. Definitely check it out.“

“I f you’re a real pizza lover, you need to try this place. The attention to detail is what sets them apart – the wood-fired crust had that perfect char, the sauce tasted homemade, and the toppings were generous without overpowering the base. I also tried their white pizza and was shocked at how flavorful it was. Not greasy at all, and perfectly balanced. They care about what they serve, and it shows. Best pizza experience I’ve had in the areal“

“Just had Marcos from this locations for the first time. Absolutely the best!!!“

“Freaking love this place!“

“We love it! The wine and the pizza was delicious😉“

“Pizza, salad & whatever else is on the menu, But now I can add 3 to 4 of our favorite - Ajarski’s!“

“The place is great. Myself and my wife came there for a pizza (truffle) the place was still not full and due to some difficulties in the kitchen. We had to wait very long time for the pizza and started to get really hungry angry.. my wife went to check on the order but still did not help. Not a good start! But then.. the pizza arrive, the stuff apologized and the pizza.. oh my good, was so good. One of the best we had for a while.. so we could forgive and the problems they had.. I really enjoyed the pizza so , even though there are so many places to eat in downtown Ventura, we found ourself in the next time back for another one.. the stuff was surprised to see us and giving them second chance and promised us the it will not happen. Again, and it was true, we ordered a great salad that arrived in minutes and few minutes after , the pizza was ready and again wonderful. I want to mention the girl Anna that was taking our orders and help in the kitchen. She was very kind polite and helpful, and new how to take responsibility when issues happened (I appreciated that) and was totally on her game the second night , and made sure everything will be great for us. ! We will be glad to come again“

“Service was friendly and efficient. Wasn’t too busy for a Tuesday night. We were a large group of business travelers and the servers were always very helpful. Food was good, not mind blowing, but our large group of 10+ collectively agreed this was a nice find and a good meal.“

“Papa John’s truly exceeded my expectations! The pizza was absolutely delicious, with fresh ingredients and a perfect crust every time. What really stood out was their outstanding customer service—friendly, prompt, and genuinely caring staff made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to for great food and top-notch service!“

“This is hands down one of the best pizza places ever, and it’s definitely going to be my go-to spot from now on. The marinara sauce was so sweet and flavorful, it really stood out. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the place wasn’t crowded, which made the experience even better. I usually go for pepperoni, but here the cheese pizza completely won me over you can really taste the sweetness of the marinara in every bite. Highly recommend!“

“I ate here before with my family a few months ago and we enjoyed the meal. I forgot about it, until my husband and I were looking for a different Italian restaurant than the usual ones we go to. I remembered Olivia, so we went on a Saturday night where it was considerably more energetic than before. Everyone was welcoming and we were lucky we made a reservation. The arancini was soooo good. It's very hard to find the quality that we experienced in Italy, but Oliva came very close. The Pasta Norma was delicious. The seafood pasta was also very good. The portions were plentiful and service was on point. This is such a warm and welcoming restaurant. I recommend it and can't wait to return.“

“First time here, which does speak to the fact that I enjoy the food. I normally order the octopus as an appetizer and enjoy the cioppino. My wife and mother-in-law enjoyed their chicken dishes with respect the atmosphere. It's pleasant, but the fact that two TV you're showing a football game in the basketball game takes away from a quiet evening in a restaurant when eyes are looking at the sets instead of enjoying conversation“

“Pizza Hut is always a solid choice when you’re craving classic pizza with great flavor. I’ve been to this location several times, and the food quality is consistently good. The crust is always baked just right — crispy on the outside and soft on the inside — and the toppings are fresh and generous. Their cheese blend is perfectly melted and has that signature Pizza Hut taste that’s hard to beat. I also like that they keep the store clean and comfortable, whether you’re dining in or waiting for takeout.

The staff here is friendly and welcoming, and they handle orders with care. You can tell they try to get everything right, even when it’s busy. The only downside is that the wait time can be a little long, especially during lunch and dinner rush hours. It’s not terrible, but I’ve had to wait longer than expected a few times, even for a pickup order. That’s really the only reason I’m giving four stars instead of five.“

“Late last night (Monday 12/12/2022) I went to pick up my carry-out order from my local Domino's (4467 Van Nuys Blvd) and my order had accidentally been taken by a delivery driver. This would normally be really upsetting, but the employee I talked to, Leilani, apologized for the situation, and offered to re-make my pizzas right then, and said she would throw in a free order of cinnamon twists to make up for the inconvenience of having to wait. I appreciated her friendly demeanor and willingness to make sure I was taken care of. Leilani turned a negative experience into a positive experience, and I want to thank her!“

“Delicious food, I enjoyed myself there and the spaghetti was great just like expected 🧡“

“There were 4 of us dining in for a late lunch/ early dinner. It's a very comfortable place with a great menu and awesome desserts. The owner works there and the staff is awesome and friendly. If you want to adjust your selection a bit they are happy to help in any way possible! The portions are good size to share. We love going there and the staff makes it cozy and welcoming. Thank you Antonio's for taking such good care of us and making our visit a wonderful experience. We look forward to our next visit soon!“

“Visited last week with a group after hearing good things about it through a friend. Their pizza is delicious, good dough/cheese/sauce ratio. We ordered the Chicken Alfredo pizza and Margherita pizza. I also tried their Chicken Marsala and it hit the spot. They also serve espresso drinks, perfect before hitting the road after stuffing ourselves. Would recommend and definitely coming back.“
