Pizza were incredible and the staff were very hospitable. Went for my birthday and had a couple of the pies and red wine. They looked to have plenty of regulars and even dessert was fantastic.

Terrible pizza. The dough was heavy and dry. It seems like it wasn't allowed to rise sufficiently, so it was very dense. Then it wasn't completely baked through. We had a white type pizza (with arugula) that was very, very dry. And we had a tomato based pizza that was a little more moist, but ultimately the dough was terrible. I couldn't finish it. The toppings were meager. Some of the cheese wasn't melted. The crust was heavy and dense. We gave the extra pizza to a housing challenged person outside of the restaurant. The salad we ordered was fine, with a generous portion. Nothing special to throwing some cheese and pecans into arugula. The dressing had a nice lemon flavor. But the pizza has to be the star here (there isn't much else to order) and the two pizzas we ordered were utterly mediocre. The kitchen didn't care. The owner was bopping around but he didn't seem to care either. The waitress was pleasant. We ate at Pizzeria Sei last week, the pizza was amazing. We ate at Gjelina take out a few weeks ago, excellent pizza (always is!). Don't waste your time, money or calories on this place.

I am a baker. 2nd response: You never replied to my emails. You never refunded my money. It wasn't my intention to get any money back, but you made the offer and then you reneged. OK, fine. You are going out of business. You don't care.

Too bad they will close this location, but they will move to middle west LA. Good luck, guys! Every dish is great, we had the entire menu ?, not all at one time, but we came to this place several times and tried everything. The pizzas are great, the appetizers are very tasty, but our favourite was - as we call it - “Live tiramisu” (the coffee and the cream are poured in front of you). ?? it’s a cozy, friendly place, where you have a good chat with the owner or the manager. Try White Dog (2007 red wine!!)???? and italian prosecco ??

Great little spot for pizza and wine. Their salads are good as well, but the dough and sauce steal the show.

The customer service was amazing and the staff were very friendly. The interior is small but worth it. We really enjoyed the food and tiramisu dessert.

The food here is great! Do not be deceived by its lack of curb appeal. This place is a hidden gem!

This isn't just home to the best pizza, wine & faro salad in LA it's home. You can walk in feeling like the weight of the world is on your shoulders, or fresh off a delayed flight and the crazy of LAX like mum and I did last night and be guaranteed you will leave feeling onto of the world!!! Your tastebuds will be entertained, tummy full and your heart filled with joy and love of true Italian hospitality!

Really delicious food and great service. Wine selection is good and interesting. Went with a friend on a Monday evening and it wasn't busy at all. Easy parking in the lot or on the street.

Listen. I'm from NJ and tried ever pizza in LA. This is hands down the best one. I'm so sad we moved out of Marina so we don't get to go here as often anymore. Thank you for the many nights of heavenly pesto burrata goodness.
