“BEST PIZZA IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA“

“Muriell {in screwing up the name, im sorry} deserves his own franchise!! this man knows how to run a business!! incredible service, piping hot pizza and wings EVERY freakin TIME. thank you again, looking forward to my next order! if you happen to see this, "M" I look forward to giving YOUR business all of my money, when you open it!“

“Finally used my coupon for an 11 inch fully loaded pizza. This location is very nice, super clean and a place to sit and enjoy your pizza. They have great menu options and fresh ingredients, pizza well cut and nice and warm right off the blazing fire oven. I stand firm on my review for the downtown location but this location is a win for service quality and taste.

“The pizza was to die for — we had the margarita pizza — thin crust and sauce delicious. We had the artichoke burrata appetizer which was delicious too. The area where the restaurant is located is very cool. Enjoyable all the way around.“

“Excellent deep dish style pizza.“

“5 rating Vegan Delicious Pizza!! Slices, full pies, caesar salad, garlic knots, all house-made ingredients. cashew-based cheese. loved it!! As of October 2022, opened for 8 mos.“

“This place was wonderful! We celebrated my fiancé’s birthday here, and the staff went above and beyond — they even gave us the best booth in the house. Multiple team members wished him a happy birthday, which was so sweet.😊

The food was to die for! We had the Caesar salad, Brussels sprouts, burrata, Margherita pizza, and Funghi pizza — everything was absolutely incredible.

We’ll definitely be coming back. Thank you so much for making the night extra special, Wildcrust staff!“

“cute tucked away place. Have picked up and ordered to sit down! It's outdoor seating only. It's a hidden place. Parking may or may not be hard. But I just walk a half block. I like it. People working there are nice for Pick up, Too Good to Go and also to eat there as a regular customer!“

“Awesome food, barteners, USC Sponsored, UFC Fight Nights.“

“The pizza is great and affordable—perfectly crispy crust, fresh toppings, and balanced flavors. What really sets them apart, though, is the friendly and welcoming staff in the cozy little spot. Highly recommend for amazing pizza and service!“

“I first tried Pizzana when I was taken out for my 21st birthday a couple months ago. After realizing I couldn’t eat much anymore, a lot of alternatives made me nervous. But Pizzana’s vegan, gluten-free pizza was something I genuinely couldn’t stop thinking about.
Yesterday, I decided to order it online. I messed up my order and tried to fix it through Uber Eats, but the wrong one had already been sent out. Shortly after, Pizzana called me back and took care of everything with me. They were patient, kind, and incredibly compassionate.
When I showed up, my pizza was ready. The entire staff was overwhelmingly kind. The manager even apologized and thanked me for choosing Pizzana.
I’m being completely honest when I say I came home and cried. It’s rare to feel that cared for as a customer, especially when food can be such an emotional and stressful thing. The kindness, understanding, and quality of the food meant more to me than they probably realize. I’ll never forget this experience.
Thank you, Pizzana. 🤍🍕“

“pizza is delicious and wings are fantastic“

“The little plates are yummy. I love the pita bread that came with the hummus (Salatim plate). The other plates were good also. I loved the bread pudding (I think it's better than the best cake). What I like the most about Bacari, besides the beautiful ambiance, is the friendliest staff.“

“Future brides looking for a wedding venue in LA -- DO IT!!!

I got married here on May 3rd, 2025, and I truly cannot rave enough about De La Nonna and The Let's Go Disco. We had a 120-person wedding and used both spaces -- De La Nonna for our ceremony and reception, and The Let's Go Disco for the after-party.

From the very beginning, the team was incredibly accommodating to all of our (many) creative requests. My husband is an illustrator and designer, so we created a fully custom escort wall where every guest was drawn by hand with their table number on the back. The team happily stored away and rearranged furniture to give us space between the two venues to make it happen.

In addition to the escort wall, we brought in some rentals like a photobooth, a heart-shaped arch, larger tables and chairs -- not because we needed to (they already had great options), but because we wanted big tables. They accommodated everything with no issues and no hidden charges, truly allowing us to transform the space into exactly what we envisioned.

We also wanted a champagne tower, and they had no problem letting us bring in a vendor -- they even helped serve champagne pre-ceremony so guests had drinks while they waited.

They provided two DJs, both of whom were amazing -- and if you can request DJ Seano, DO IT. He was truly incredible and MC'd our ceremony moments and wedding speeches flawlessly, collaborating with us to make sure the vibes were exactly what we wanted and that our favorite songs were played all night long.

The food was INCREDIBLE and this is another reason we wanted to do it here. Literally every single guest came up to us to tell us how incredible it was - the salads, the pizza, the oysters - everything was PERFECTION.

Our day flowed seamlessly from pre-ceremony champagne service, to ceremony, to cocktail hour with amazing hors d'oeuvres, to our dinner reception (complete with speeches and a family tradition game of bingo), and then into The Let's Go Disco for our first dance, cake cutting, and an unforgettable party.

We were a little nervous about getting married in DTLA, especially for out-of-town guests unfamiliar with the area, but between the Arts District's private security and the two dedicated security guards provided by De La Nonna/The Let's Go Disco, everyone felt completely safe and taken care of and we had zero issues!!!

What truly made this experience exceptional, beyond the food and the chic, beautiful space, was the staff. From planning through the wedding day itself, they were thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely invested in making sure everything felt special and seamless. As I was walking down the aisle, I made eye contact with one of the staff members -- and she was crying!! That moment says everything.

I truly cannot imagine a better place to get married in Los Angeles. Thank you to everyone -- and especially Jose, Mia, and Patrick -- for making all of our wedding dreams come true.“

“Skater owned amazing pizza“

“I’m a New Yorker who worked for years in a pizzeria, I take my pizza seriously. Elio’s is real pizza! The ingredients, flavor, and variety are why I can’t visit LA without stopping to grab a pie.“

“I’m big fan of wood fire Pizza. Finally a halal spot. MashaAllah pizza is amazing. I love the crust. And the pizzas are light, so we got a couple options for me and my family.“

“Had a great meal. Definitely NY style Highly recommended when in LA“

“We moved here from New York and we LOVE this pizza! It's taken 8 years to find good pizza in LA and we found it in Pasadena. The crust is out of this world and the ingredients are high quality. The sides, including the salad are not only delicious, but they're made with great care. My husband and I feel honored to be there customers.“

“I brought my team for lunch here and we had a blast with different types of pizza pies and sides. I’ve also come by at night and the whole area is activated with night market, bars etc. Also have taken pizza to go or by the slice. From the simple classic ones to inventive ones, with or without hot honey, Calabrian peppers… I’m coming back. I do like the zucchini popper. Just Wish they opened earlier for lunch.“

“We have been meaning to try Hail Mary for awhile now and finally ordered online for pickup. The food was ready fast. It was delicious and packaged well for the ride home. The gentleman that greeted us made sure the order was complete prior to me leaving. We’ll be back!“

“Food was better than I expected!! We ordered tuna belly, sooo delicious😋 I was looking forward the Foccacia, it did not disappoint. The bread was so air and light. The pizza was exceptional. Their Italian beer was crisp. I will be definitely returning.“

“We love the ambience at gra. And I’m so happy to see more restaurants coming into the many vacant storefronts in this neighborhood. Gra has an incredible vibe. Wonderful service and unbelievably great music. We do wish for two things though. We love traditional full-bodied reds by the glass. They are hard to come by. We also love fresh vegetables, and as much as we love the fermented veggies we’d love to mix it up with more variety. Looking forward to becoming loyal, patrons and exploring this restaurant more.“

“The hot honey pizza was phenomenal. Solid portions for a good price. Plus! The staff were super nice and fun to talk with while we waited for our pizza. 100% will be going back and they’re opening a slice shop at echo park that I am keen on trying because I had a good experience.“

“We were in town from Palm Springs for the day and went to Little Goat after finding it online. One of the best spur of the moment stops ever - we absolutely loved the pizza and the service was phenomenal, super sweet server. We ordered two pizzas - margarita and the chef’s special apple/walnut/kale/caramelized onion/goat cheese. They were both amazing! We eat a lot of pizza and definitely have a new top favorite. Outdoor seating has both stellar views and people watching; there is a cute patisserie down the street that’s an amazing desert stop for the perfect date night; we will definitely stop by next time we are in town! We will try the house made panna cotta next time. :) Highly recommend checking them out!“

“Ordered 1/2 spaghetti & 1/2 chicken ravioli with meatballs. It was very good and it warmed bread complimented it perfectly. My other half ordered the lasagna and said it was very good.“

“This Shakey’s in Alhambra is one of the best they provide great customer service their food is always fresh they have big tvs to watch the games I enjoy going when dodger’s are playing because I get to enjoy a beer“

“Bball Team banquet held there“

“Pizza and chicken were good but I don’t know what big deal about mojos is. I found them tasteless and disgusting.“

“Excellent Pizza, Great service definitely will come back....100% recommend!!!!!“

“I wanted to take a moment to recognize the exceptional customer service provided by Miles during my recent visit. He went above and beyond to ensure everything was fresh and always made sure we had exactly what we needed. Miles took the time to explain each pizza as it came out during the lunch buffet, which added a personal touch to the experience. When I asked if he was the manager, he humbly mentioned that he wasn’t, which only further highlighted how dedicated he is to his role. It’s clear that he takes great pride in delivering excellent service. I hope the team sees this review because Miles truly deserves recognition for his outstanding work. I always enjoy visiting this location, and I’m looking forward to my next visit, hoping to see him there again!“

“Las pizzas más ricas que he probado. Mí esposo y yo vamos al local en Glendale y siempre salimos muy satisfechos. Con la amable atención del Sr. Juan Medina. Muy recomendado!“

“Omg! The lemon pepper boneless wings are to die for! So delights they are addicting, yummy, great service and affordable“

“OMG, I'm so happy this place is close to my house! It has the best vegan pizza I've ever tried. I love the variety of plant-based toppings they offer, and the cheese was delicious. I'm just sad that they're closed on Monday and Tuesday.“

“Amazing delicious food and love the ambiance. The servers were awesome!!“

“Very good delicious food very fresh for being two in the morning“

“I went to this place yesterday and I had a blasts the white guy cashier was so wonderful. Their costumer service is amazing i recommend coming to this amazing pizza spot. I ordered pepperoni and pineapple pizza and the buffalo chicken pizza, the buffalo chicken pizza had but much of salt but it is ok Cuase the food was still amazing. They deserve a raise god bless them“

“Good Pizza . Decent beers.“

“Alitalia Pizza is literally the only place we pick up pizza! The crust is delicious as is their sauce and fresh ingredients, definitely different than your average pizza. They also have many other options and we often order a salad on the side. Their salads are large and always, consistently fresh. They don’t cut corners and the owners and staff could not be more accommodating and delightful! Great local business to support and a hidden gem if you have not tried it!“

“been going to Rios for years best pizza in town 🥰🤗😁😎“

“Customer service great 2 👍👍“

“the food its just delicious.“

“The food was delicious! Some of the best pizza in LA!“

“Excellent place and great dining“

“I’ve been to the DTLA Arts District location so many times, so I was shocked (in the best way) to discover this one so close to home. The space is modern, clean, and has a cool vibe — though I still lean toward the unique Arts District atmosphere. What really stands out is the pizza: same incredible quality as DTLA. Blindfold me and I wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.

The only thing to keep in mind is that pizza by the slice can add up — if you’re thinking of grabbing more than two, a fresh pie might be the smarter move. Either way, I’m thrilled to have another amazing spot nearby!“

“great all the way from az“

“Renardo and andrea greeted me and my wife as I walked through the door. I'm leaving a review because I believe I was served the perfect pizza. It was the perfect mixture of sauce , cheese and veggies. The crust was cooked perfectly.The cheese was brought out to the edges.The vegetables were scattered evenly from rim to middle. I don't know if you will find the perfect pizza here , but I did.“

“Had a great experience here, Valerie and the rest of the staff really took the time to assist and help our football team and staff and served over 70 of us in a timely manner helping us prepare of our semi final playoff game. Thank you so much for what you do. Hands down the best Shakey’s that I have ever eaten at“
