Joe's Pizza in Los Angeles

As a NYer living in Santa Monica I was very excited to have Joe's move in. The pizza was excellent in the beginning when he first opened but now the staff is getting lazy. Fresh mozzarella pie is going down in quality. it seems like they take the cheese out of the water bucket and throw it on the pie without draining. My last few orders of the fresh pie have had diluted sauce due to that. Also, the staff is less than pleasant. I was once given a pick up time frame of "30-55 minutes".... so do I leave my house to pick up your pizza in 25 mins or maybe in 45 mins?.... I think that's a ridiculous time frame for a pie - especially since they have no parking.... if the owner were there I know he wouldn't let that happen.

Yeah, Vito's is not bad, Joe's is alright, but he is back in NY and leaving the pizza making out here to locals!! Nice move! If you want the best I've tried so far, there is a place on La Brea that just opened a few weeks ago. Verrazanos Pizza, the owners are from Staten Island, and they are the ones cooking! The crust is soft yet crunchy and the sauce is amazing! Easily better that Vito's for sure. Don't believe me, try some for yourself!

Joe's Pizza in Los Angeles

I live a couple blocks from Vito's and hit it up once or twice a week, Joe's once every three weeks or so. Depending on what kind of pie you get, Vito's is on par with Joe's. The white pies are better than Joe's whites, but Joe's pizzas with toppings are better. Vito's doesn't offer a fresh mozz pie. Both of them are Baker's Pride places so don't get too excited if you're used to wood or coal.

I had Bollini's again (Monterey Park?) and was more impressed the second time. They have a wood oven, inconsistent service. Better than Casa Bianco, probably not as good as Petrillo's if you live out there.

Finally, I went back to Mozza after a big NYC trip and though the crust there still rocks (it has to be among the best there is), I now realize that it's the so-so sauce that keeps it from greatness. Of course the majority of pies there don't come with tomato sauce anyway, but still...
