Best Pizza in Los Angeles
Someone said to me once, "You guys don't go out to eat, right?" Oh no!! We go out (at least once a week) but 99.9% of the time it's for PIZZA. My "boys" are picky in what they eat and try (I am too, but at least I'm willing to try new things!)My husband thought it'd be a good idea to post our favorite pizza joints on the blog. I would LOVE to hear what places YOU recommend though ok?
I found this blog too on food in L.A.
In no particular order:
Palermo's Ristorante Italiano- the thought is making my mouth water!!!
1858 N Vermont Ave
Los Angeles, CA 90027
(323) 663-1178
Mon 11am-11pm;
Wed-Sun 11am-12am
(They are closed on Tuesdays, and every year they take two weeks off during the summer so phone first!!)
Joe Peeps-this place is my husband's FAVORITE. I always feel like I've gained 10 lbs but the pizza is damn good! (I like to look at the receipts from the Post Office on the wall from people on the East Coast and elsewhere who've spent a mint overnighting pizza from this place. HA!)

Mulberry Street Pizza

Buca di Beppo
We've tried the one in Pasadena and Santa Monica
There's a place near Monrovia, if not in Monrovia, that we have been to twice (and I can't remember the name of it) but the crust is made from corn flour. It is *so* good...if I can find the name I'll letcha know, it's been awhile since we've been...
We tried a place recommended in LA Weekly last week as one of the *best* pizza (or Italian) restaurants. We wanted to got here SO badly that we spent 2 hours trying to find the damn place on Monday only to get there and find it was closed. SO then the husband decided (This is how badly he wants this pizza), let's go there on Valentine's Day. Soooooo we trek back to Eagle Rock and visit some of the local shops (cute but out of our budget :( )...We get to the pizza place 15 minutes early before it opens. We sit in the car and at 4, get out of the car and walk over to the restaurant. There's a huge line!! (There wasn't anyone there 15 minutes ago). We get a table and we're drooling hungry and waiting! We ordered a large cheese pizza with whole wheat crust. 20 minutes later it comes out and the waitress puts it down and the edges are BLACK and burned to a crisp. My hunger level just hits rock bottom. Ugh. VERY disappointed. I've had burnt pizza before (I don't know why a restaurant would serve burnt pizza VERY disappointing when they do that). Any ways, I should know by now not to listen to the reviews in LA Weekly. Most of the folks around us were eating non pizza items...I couldn't believe how many people were in the joint.
What's YOUR favorite SO CA Pizza place? Please post!!
