“I come to this special place every couple of days because I love the special air that is exist in this restaurant. The crew is awfuly welcoming and experienced. The service is very efficient. Most important, the food they serve is outstanding. I frequent more than once and I was always joyful. The payment is fair. I highly recommend this restaurant to to all.“

“Why wouldn't you go here? I want to live here! These aquariums are fantastic. The only thing that would make it better is more dinosaurs. There's a play place called the "discovery cove". However there was a recent remodel that made it less fun than before. They took away this play boat which was super fun for the 0-5 year olds.“

“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.“

“My family and I capped off a great vacation with a dinner here on a whim.
1st) We didn’t make a reservation and the host made it happen to get a party of 6 seated in no time at all
2nd) They were extremely accommodating of 3 kids in a party of 6 which many restaurants are not
3rd) Food was absolutely outstanding from start to finish. From the bread, to the pasta, to the prosciutto to the pizza, and even the mocktail. 5 stars all the way
4th) The service was tremendous and especially when our oldest son, who’s on the spectrum, lost something and the server held onto it for him, which absolutely made his day.

From a restaurant owner in New Jersey, we all left filled, happy & was the perfect ending to our vacation.“

“Each time I’ve been here the food hits the spot. Fresh ingredients baked in an oven in front of you. We recently got their Caesar salad (no anchovies ) and their Margherita special pizza with Bufala cheese. And 2 chilled wines. Food was incredible, service was great! It’s a small restaurant with limited seated so definitely make reservations in advance. They truly earned their Michelin guide status!“

“pizza is delicious and wings are fantastic“

“Went there with my kids after a soccer game for a quick slice on a Sunday lunchtime. Tried the Detroit style pepperoni and specialty but my favorite was the thin crust cheese. Super crispy, zero flop, nice sauce. Really friendly staff as well. Definitely recommended.“

“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.“

“Outstanding and HUGE sandwiches that will easily feed two people or one really hungry sandwich lover. The pizza is just as delicious and like the sandwiches, the 12” feeds two people. One of the secrets to Baked is their homemade crust that doubles as bread on the sandwiches. For dessert try fresh hot churros!“

“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.“

“Delicious authentic Roman cuisine …“

“I had the Maséhati pizza, and it was absolutely amazing. The ingredients were so fresh, and the flavors were incredible. The warm aroma of basil pesto paired perfectly with the savory and flavorful prosciutto topping. The ricotta cheese was soft, creamy, and just downright delicious. On top of that, the owner was super friendly and welcoming. This is hands down the best pizza spot in LA. If you’re craving pizza, you have to try this place!“

“El trato para los clientes es al 100 % recomendado, los meseros muy amables y la comida exquisita, te ayuda ah todas tus peticiones en especial el mesero # 1 NATHAN M. Súper amable 10/10 súper atento y agradable 200% Recomendable 👍🏻👏🏻❤️ En Burbank 👍🏻“

“Amazing food - breadcrumb spaghetti, and Broccoli were standouts

deer tartare, pizzas, wild boar meatballs were great

Drinks were inventive and flavorful

Great service and ambiance, good music that we could still have a conversation over

Parking: Lots of meters and neighborhood spots“

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

“Had an incredible experience at Pizzana for my graduation celebration!
They managed to accommodate a last-minute reservation for a group of 10, and everything from the service to the atmosphere was flawless. Huge shoutout to Manager Noe for making it happen so smoothly and to our amazing server Nika for the warm and thoughtful hospitality throughout the evening.
The food and drinks were absolutely top-notch. Highly recommend for any special occasion or just a great night out!“

“We had the best experience here! Perfect small business to support! The area is nice and it is a very chill vibe for friends. We ordered some pizzas and sat outside and they went out of their way to set up a bigger table, cater to us before even asking, and gave us some spring rolls on the house. THE SERVICE IS AMAZING. Super respectful and friendly people. Definitely coming here whenever I’m close by!“

“great pizza great crew the pizza is a bit pricy but the flavor and quality merit it you can taste the quality and fresh ingredients I highly recommend it just wishi could afford to go more often.“

“I would describe De La Nonna as an elevated pizza restaurant. As with most pizza joints, they serve up beer, salad and pizza, but this not your standard fare.

Start off with a craft beer, wine, or a fancy cocktail (or mocktail). Lots of choices to be had.

For starters, we ordered the market salad which had a fantastically light tangerine(?) dressing. The dressing on the ceaser salad was a bit heavy, but it was still tasty.

The eggplant caponata appeared to have been lightly fried and coated in a sweet and savory sauce. Very good.

As for the pizzas, all were insanely good. Each was like a pillowy soft deep dish pizza and they all came with the best crispy edges.

IMO the roasted mushroom pizza was the best — and I'm not a fan of mushrooms.

Prices are a bit higher than you would find at a typical pizza place, but again, these are not your typical pizzas. The staff was friendly and the atmosphere, chill.

Dietary restrictions: They were able to accommodate customers with celiacs.“

“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.“

“Best Pizza ive ever had. I grew up in Brooklyn“

“Best food ever. Best staff ever. My daughter suffered a medical emergency at the WeHo location. The manager and staff were beyond kid and helpful. Not that I recommend having a seizure at a restaurant, but Pizzana handled it beautifully. I do love their food. Authentic, fresh and delicious. Their gluten free pizza is the best in town.♥️“

“Oh man what a great first impression and I can't wait to return for more.

Stopped by around 8pm the other night and I believe Jeremy was helping me, nice guy and offered good recommendations. I went with the Mortadella focaccia and it was outstanding!

It's served slightly warmed as the focaccia is toasted which offers a nice contrast in temperature and texture from the filing. The bread is out of this world. I know the flavor but it just can't come to me as I write this review, but there is so much flavor packed into the bread, I could buy loaves of that alone. It's crusty on the outside and pillowy on the inside.

The mortadella is piled high with good pieces of pistachio and a slight saltiness. The burrata is creamy and smooth while the pistachio cream offers a nice nuttiness and more rustic flavor to blend everything together. Such simplicity truly makes the best sandwiches.“

“This is the only pizza place in LA that brings me back east to the pizza of my childhood!!!! EXTREMELY personable staff at this no frills neighborhood pizza parlor ☺️ There's a lot of upscale pizza in this city but this place has my heart ??“

“Everything here was perfect. The food was delicious (albeit a HUGE pizza that took two sittings to get through)
Alessandra provided fantastic service, she was so friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was great, we sat outside on the patio, it was beautifully lit with lovely music playing. Couldn’t fault this restaurant for a single thing, we loved it!“

“10/10 recommend! Food is absolutely delicious and we tried most items on the menu! Super nice interior and truly family run restaurant with brothers working in kitchen and waitering, making it feel like your living room. Long drive from Santa Monica but 100% worth it and will definitely be back soon“

“Genuine Neapolitan Pizza.“

“We had Escos for the first time the other night and we were very happy with our slices. We had the buffalo chicken pizza and the classic cheese and they were both delicious. The service was great and Esco brought a table inside for us to dine in on a chilly night. Will def be back!“

“Hands down the best wood-fired pizza in town! The crust is perfectly crisp, the toppings are fresh and flavorful, and every bite is pure perfection. Its not greasy and doesnt make you feel gross after. Just perfection. I LOVE this place. Friendly staff and quick service make it even better. A must-visit for any pizza lover! 🍕🔥“

“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!“

“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.“

“Hands down one the best pizza and for sure one of the BEST pastas in Los Angeles. I've tried almost all their pasta, from their bolognese to the Penne Vodka. They are all great. I normally order 2 dishes just for myself.
Best flavors you can't find any were else. There's no comparison to their pizza and the quality ingredients and toppings. I was raised in NY/NJ, so I'm very picky on pizza. I only have a few spots that I would ever recommend and Proper is on top!“

“My family and I are not the biggest fan of pizza. However we decided to order some pizza, but from a place we've never tried. Pizza Cafe LA came up on google as one of the closest places with quite good reviews, so I decided to try and ordered to pick up. (My orders were ready on time!)

I ordered two large pizzas with chicken wings.
Pizzas were very nice. All of us enjoyed every slice of it.
AND chicken wings! Honey BBQ and buffalo flavors. They were so crispy and the best of all, I LOVED the ranch? they gave to us. I don't think I ever enjoyed the dipping sauce that much in my life.

We will definitely come back in near future!“

“This place does it right !!“

“Great atmosphere and service by the bartenders. Food is delicious and kitchen is open late night. Best chopped salad and best peanut butter pie, pizza by the slice or can order a whole pie. Overall would highly recommend the Elbow Room.“

“The place is always quite, the workers are super nice and specially the food always hits, even after years of eating the same food. A hot, single tater tots, with a coke, is the best duo ever made....I'd say even better than beans and rice.“

“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!“

“Everything was amazing! 🤙🤙👍👍“

“Love this place. They have variety of everything. Food is amazing. Staff members are very nice and polite. They will go above and beyond to assist and satisfy their customers. Owners are very nice to everyone.“

“Amazing food great family business that’s serving some great and tasty food! I had the pizza and the chicken sandwich and wow great and fresh! Chill place and very family oriented and if you get lucky you might put your order in with the families little angel princes! Must try!

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“Enjoyed the cheese NY style pizza. Only criticism would be that there was no prosciutto in the piggie smalls panino. Don’t church it up…that’s straight up sliced ham. Would go again for the pizza (gotta try the 8Mile), but would skip the panino.“

“My partner and I love pizza baby. It’s super delicious and they offer vegan mozzarella which is perfect for lactose intolerant folks. We’ve ordered from them three times now and it’s quickly become our favorite pizza take out spot.

Dietary restrictions: They offer vegan mozzarella.“

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

“I checked this place out after seeing the reviews, and it was even better than I expected. The Mushroom Pizza and Fat Tomato Works were so good, I can’t stop thinking about them. If you’re over greasy, salty, or dry crusts, I’d seriously recommend this spot – it’s legit New York-style pizza.

The staff was awesome too – they treated us like old friends while still being super quick and professional.“

“updated review, love the pizza, hateed the wait, service always very good, except that cashier's handles food, forks etc. Also the handle cash, CC's dirty dishes and clean tables without using gloves and actually change them after switching activities, nor or washing hands though.. I am very particular when it comes to food and utensil handling.. specially as in getting older and so many virus etc. Out there“

“yesterday i pay a pitcher of beer with a hundred bill cashier dint have change on box he said after serve the beer gona drop the change at table never show i totally forguet today ill call thr place they dont pick up the phone“
