I tasted fresh ingredients for the sausage pizza, and just perfect marinated peppers, eggplant, onions, and mushrooms on each slice. Our party also tried appetizer meatballs and garlic bread, and they were good for the meat-eaters in our dining party. Our only mistake – we need leave room for dessert next time!
Everyone was nice and offered to take our group picture after dinner. What a special space, with a neat mix of Americana and music and pop culture memorabilia adorning the walls. The friendly and responsive staff really put up with our (many) questions.
Whoever was playing DJ that night for ambiance— you have incredible music taste. I heard songs that made me bust out my music ID app a few times!
I was greeted warmly and explained this was my first visit so I wasn’t sure what to get. The guy at the counter patiently talked about how their pizzas are made with cornmeal, and everything was really good, a nice little hole in the wall spot here in Arcadia. I asked what slices they had available thinking of those pizza places that make a couple pies each day and just heat it up, but everything was made fresh to order including the single slices!
He told me what the specials were and that the salami toscano was really good. I went with a slice of that. He rung me up and said it’ll take about 8 mins or so.
After about 7 mins things started to smell really good in there! The chef handed me my slice, nicely wrapped in wax paper and into a paper bag and told me to enjoy and to come back again. though we forgot the napkins, whoops
When I got home 20 mins later, I was again surprised to find that the crust was still crunchy! It was so good! The blue cheese was a little funky and rich, so maybe a little marinara sauce would’ve helped cut the richness.
There’s plenty of seating inside and some tables outside. And I loved the music they’d had playing. As I was leaving a group came in for a birthday I think. The workers quickly got them seated and situated with water, plates and utensils. And put the cake in the fridge. Everyone who worked there seemed really friendly and I appreciate the care and attention they had, even into my single slice of pizza.
I’m looking forward to coming back and trying all of the other pizzas! Thank you 🙂
pizza is HEARTY! with a salad i was able to get 2-3 meals out of one pie. we got the sausage and the veggie. the pesto and corn are other favorites.
highly recommend treating yourself here. can order by the slice, as halves or a whole. call ahead if you are in a rush.
Also, gotta mention that I really liked whatever music playlist they had going during our visit. Fun mix of what I think was postpunk deep cuts. Worked for me!
If you’re a variety person I’d get 2-3 different slices and split between two.
Since they use a corn crust the pizza is more dense and filling.
They also have specialty pizzas on a separate menu to the right of the entrance 🙂
The cornmeal crust is incredibly unique and tasty, and honestly lends itself to a pizza category of its own. It has a crunch to the outside, while remaining soft on the inside, and holds the pizza toppings better than any crust I’ve had. Not only the crust tho, the toppings were well put together and obviously fresh, this is truly gourmet pizza lover’s pizza.
My wife is a pasta fanatic and had to try the pasta. We agree the components made by the resto (meatballs/sauce) were good, with the meatballs especially a standout. Tho the pasta noodles themselves were really average. She enjoyed it but prolly wouldn’t get it again.
Lastly the homemade Zucotto cake was out of this world, definitely worth checking out
Can’t wait to stop by again when passing through LA! Also made for great leftovers!
Will definitely visit again, thanks for the service guys!!
Last mention will be to the cook and the other server without them… ( sorry, I didn’t catch your names) nothing was possible… Thanks Zelo
