We were steered to this restaurant by the manager at the Hollywood Roosevelt. From the street it looks a bit nondescript but rest assured the interior is modern and the food is spectacular, delicious and well priced. This coupled with very attentive staff made the visit a highlight of our stay in LA. And to make sure everything was as it should be the owner introduced himself, asked how we'd found his restaurant and made us feel as if we were part of a large family gathering. An excellent night with great food and service - can't recommend it highly enough.

Popular pizza place with al fresco dining and takeout. They're currently open during covid and you can make reservations online via their website. There’s valet parking available, or you can try your luck with neighborhood parking (2 hour limit) in the surrounding streets, but read the signs! There’s an outdoor waiting area and before you get seated, you check in with the hostess and can wait by the fireplace before being led to your table.
The inside bar is airy, but the outdoor patio dining is very cute. The place is romantic and good for small groups. You can check out the menu via QR code but you absolutely have to get a pizza (it’s the whole point of coming here). We got an order of the small montanara (4) which I’d describe as donut holes with marinara (I mean this in the best way). The dough is light and perfectly crispy; it’s dusted with a fine layer of cheese and sits atop a bed of arugula. For three people, we split two pizzas and had quite a few leftover. The Diavola was my favorite since it had a bit of spice, but the bianca is good for white sauce lovers. The crust is the best, and you can watch the chefs make the food from the open kitchen.
I saw quite a few people do takeout, but the pizza is obviously best when it comes straight from the oven since it does cool down relatively quickly. Takeout is available. They have brunch on the weekends and a full bar. Credit cards are accepted. Overall, this was a great place to have some good food with good company.

Just lovely! We came here for our first meal in LA after a very long flight from London. We were recommended by a friend. We had the burrata and eggplant to start, and a gorgeous white pizza for our main. The service and ambience was great. It was quite expensive (130 dollars for a starter, pizza and a bottle of wine) but delicious so we didn’t mind too much. Would definitely recommend!

Recently went here for dinner.
From the outside it doesn't look like much, however when you step in its almost cavernous with brick walls and fireplaces everywhere. No
Started with the beet salad, which is usually the size of your palm, however this plate was the size of your forearm.
Next we had the pasta with short ribs and truffles. There is nothing like homemade fresh pasta. It is night and day from store-bought pasta.
Finally we closed with a margherita pizza with double cheese.
Throw in a bottle of Italian red and it was one of the best Italian meals I've had in years.

We came with a large group of 10. My sister and I are vegan and didn’t choose this place. We were disappointed to find that their vegan entree option consisted of pizza dough with sauce and pieces of garlic on it. No exaggeration. We cook most days of the week and our homemade vegan pizzas would blow this one out of the water. If you want authentic Italian pizza (which we’ve had) and don’t want to deign to provide a vegan option even when you’re in Southern California that’s fine, but don’t slap bread and sauce on the menu and call it vegan. Service was fine except when the server forgot to bring my sister a birthday dessert when he said he would and instead brought the check.

Stumbled across this place while driving in the area and searching a restaurant on openTable. My husband and I sat at the bar. Service was friendly and attentive. The pizza only takes less that a minute to cook and it was large and delicious!!! We also had a salad (their version of Italian) Cacio é Pepe pasta and the short rib pasta which was Devine!!! 😋 The restaurant is beautiful and made to feel like a home with a living room and fire place in the front, a small patio for the restaurant and a large patio for the pizzeria in the back. Oh, did i mention the Nutella filled donut that was to die for?! 😀I definitely recommend and will be back!

This place is a gem in the middle of the chaos! We came for dinner on our one night in LA after reading good things and our expectations were exceeded. The vibe is really nice and the staff are all really accommodating and friendly. The food is ridiculously delicious! We started with some lively cocktails and we were pleasantly surprised that they were generous pours! For a starter we opted for the eggplant and burrata and it was amazing. The flavors were delicious and worked so well. We then had a pesto pizza and caccio e pepe and we are still arguing over which was more delicious. The pizza is proper, like back in Italy, the dough super thin yet somehow airy and chewy. DELICIOUS. The pasta was the best I have had since Italy(my sister lives there) - the sauce was perfect, nice and smooth and flavorful. We couldn’t shove anything else down otherwise the desserts looked tempting- next time for sure! This place is solid and highly recommended!

We were initially looking for good pizza somewhere within walking distance of our Hollywood Hotel, and spotted this place on Trip Advisor. It fitted the bill perfectly, though in the end we decided on a fish dish and were extremely happy with the simple way it was cooked and presented. The lava chocolate cake desert listed white chocolate as part of the dish but our waiter offered the warning that it was “only a drizzle”. Just as well that was the warning, otherwise it could have been slightly disappointing. Only slightly, because it was delicious. If one was being picky the tiramisu didn’t quite compare in excellence as it lacked the expected flavor hit.
Incidentally, the pizzas did look magnificent and if we were staying longer we would have returned for them.
So nice to find such a good place tucked away from the tourist melee, but within 10 mins walk of Hollywood Boulevard.

I dined there last night with my family. The food is OK but the service was very poor. When we ordered Pizza we specifically requested red pepper flakes with our Pizza . We got the pizza but no red pepper flakes. Then I had to ask red pepper flakes three more times for my Pizza , finally when we got I was done eating the Pizza.

A lot of Hollywood is sketchy and at first glance, this place was too. Then I walked in and it was magical. Two indoor/outdoor terraces; a big lively bar; casual, comfortable decor and clientele; and oh yeah, that food. The pizza is out-of-this-world, the pastas are perfect, and the salads were sublime. I can't wait to back for their branzino and burger and whateverI can eat. And save room for gelato because it's insanely good. The portions aren't so big that you can't eat a couple of different courses and sharing gives you even more choices to sample.

This restaurant was recommended by a friend as being authentically Napoleon pizza. So I ordered the Margarita and it was great (not quite as great of my memory of Naples, but close). The crust was perfect. The pizza was a little more expensive than I expected but it is comparable ($22 for a margarita pizza).
The location is hard to notice from the street and not the best parking situation, but I found street parking around the corner. But once inside it is completely different then the outside. Roomy with indoor and outdoor seating.

We love it! Thank you for giving us a shot and for the amazing feedback. Keep in mind we do offer valet parking directly across the street from us.

Stopped in quick for lunch before a tour. Wood fired pizza and had a couple other appetizers - all really good and the server got us in and out and to our tour on time. Atmosphere was an upscale homey vibe, and the bar area is set up really well with plenty of room to sit and move around.

Had this pizza with a salad delivered. The salad was good but the pizza was cold and raw. Pizza needs to have a light brown crust not white. When you pay 50.00 for a pizza and salad at least cook it, I had to put it in the toaster oven to complete the cooking. I don’t care what it cost, it needs to be cooked.

A magnificent and cosy Italian restaurant and pizza, well hidden in the LA, but just 5 minutes walk from the main Boulevard, from the outside it looks sompke and small, but once you enter - what a true gem!
We had pizza pesto, a lot of mozzarella cheese and fresh cherry tomatoes and basil. Also we had calamari fritti with lemon which were good. For desert, an excellent tiramisu, with a very strong flavour of good coffee. Staff was efficient and extra kind (tnx madison!)

Our experience was just superb! We went with one of our adult daughters, her husband and a grandson. The food was exceptional, the service very prompt and professional, it was not as noisy as some L.A. places (we could visit!) and the prices, while not inexpensive, were reasonable (as they go these days). Our "kids" had been before -- and on our next visit from NY we are very likely to return.

Hollywood undoubtedly conjures up images of movie stars and high-end lifestyles, and to this day, tourists flock here from around the world to see the iconic Hollywood Walk of Fame, Chinese Theatre and to catch a glimpse of the famed Hollywood sign up close. Celebrity impersonators and crowds give these areas the feeling of an amusement park while many clubs and hotels fill up around the weekends for late-night partying - the Hollywood club scene is a haven for thumping music and table-side bottle service. But parties aren’t the only way to enjoy this area, many visitors come to the neighborhood to sit back with a picnic to watch a performance at the Hollywood Bowl and those looking to stay fit trek along nature trails in the Hollywood hills and in Griffith Park.
