New, compelling pizza restaurants open with amazing frequency these days. For this guide to 21 favorites I’ve included a couple of places that launched early in 2023 and quickly established their baseline excellence. Most have been around for at least a few years, including several darlings of the scene that began as pandemic-era startups and found lasting audiences. Collectively, the range of delicious possibilities gleaned from the template of crust, sauce and cheese is astounding. Shins Pizza is named after Shin Irvin, co-founder of the design firm Folklor. He grew up eating slices in Philadelphia and wanted to bring a similar setup to Los Angeles.

Bestia and Barbuto chef Melissa López developed pies with sausage and mushroom, straight-up cheese, or pizza with Chinese sausage, speck, pepperoni, and sambal. The place not only does simple thin round pies, but it also works square and Sicilian-style pizzas daily. Locations are open in Burbank, near Santa Monica College, Fairfax, West LA, El Segundo, and Altadena. It’s hard to think of a more photogenic pizza than the square Detroit-style pies from the unassuming Apollonia’s on Wilshire. These dense, expertly cheesy pizzas are filled with crunch, cheese, and plenty of sauce, to be sure, but the place’s crispy, thin, round pies are sure to impress.

Slices are available during the day from noon to 3 p.m., with pies only from noon until 9 p.m., Wednesday to Sunday. The Conejo Valley has plenty of Italian eateries, and Made in Italy is among the best. In addition to several kinds of pasta, salads, and paninis, there are several options for pizza, including a classic margherita, prosciutto and arugula, four cheese, and sausage and mushroom. Just like all of Made in Italy’s pastas, its pizzas can be made gluten-free.

Head to California Marketplace’s third floor in K-Town to place an order for a nine- or 12-inch pizza. Danny Boy’s comes from one of NYC’s former Meatball Shop co-founders and is an homage to East Coast red-sauce roots. It’s in an unusual space, tucked away in an office building atrium, which is a lovely place to have takeout pizza. Recently the shop has become very popular on TikTok, leading to long lines during lunch hour. Is also the perfect place for chefs to approach pizza as both personal narrative and personal expression.
Apollonia's Pizzeria
Former Bootleg Pizzeria operator Kyle Lambert is a deep-dish Detroit-style pizza specialist. These square slices are plush, made with naturally fermented dough that features an ever-so-slight tangy flavor. Lambert and partner Courtney Glowacz operate from a small takeout-only Culver City slot with a rock-and-roll vibe that resembles the camaraderie part of the Bear’s first season. The $30-35 square pies are laden with cheese and personality and suit any mood.
"It's a pizza made entirely of Japanese rice flour, and kind of a mix of different rice flours, but primarily Japanese rice flour," shared Chef Ty Mahler, the Co-Founder of Mochiko Mochi Pizza. "The goal was to get a crispy outside, but still a chewy inside like mochi." Sotto veteran Daniel Cutler oversees this pizza and small plates restaurant with his wife and general manager Caitlin Cutler. With inventive pizzas boasting supple but charred crusts and levain bread with a wonderfully brown crust, Ronan is a haven for those who love carbohydrates.

Toppings include homemade Goan sausage, roasted fresnos, and chicken tikka for a choose-your-own flavor adventure. "There's been a lot of people traveling from San Jose down from San Francisco, specifically coming to Burlingame," Mahler added. "They're coming down here and then coming straight here to try mochi pizza for the first time. It's pretty great."
CHEF’S SPECIAL
Looking back, it’s incredible to see how LA’s unique pizza culture developed over the decades. It likely started in the early ‘80s with Wolfgang Puck’s then-innovative smoked salmon pizza at Spago. But in recent years, Los Angeles saw a notable rise in non-Californian operators making the Westward leap by introducing New York, Detroit, and Neapolitan-style pizzas. Locals also threw formidable hats in SoCal’s pizza ring. The result is Los Angeles being a hotspot for excellent pizza dough topped with local ingredients by chefs who obsess over sauce and delicious pies.
Plenty has been said about chef Daniele Uditi’s neo-Neapolitan pies. Best to enter one of the locations in Brentwood, Marina del Rey, Sherman Oaks, West Hollywood, or Silver Lake to try for yourself. Start with the creamy cacio e pepe pizza or the diavola topped with spicy salami and nduja walnut romesco. Thanks Pizza is some of LA’s unfussiest pizza, but it is pie-making at its best. The wood-fired dough comes as a cheeseburger or Hawaiian pizza, along with the simple pepperoni.
Tradition, innovation and nostalgia bake together into beautifully mottled canvases. I was hoping it got better but still just two pieces of meat. "We have this this kind of flagship location in Burlingame. And then we have our Palo Alto Sushiritto and our...San Francisco Sushiritto also make the pizzas," said Mahler. The team focused on pushing boundaries with flavor and finding the tastiest toppings to accentuate the unique texture.
The special will be posted on our Facebook and Instagram page. Pizza may not be for everyone, but I guarantee you will find something that you love on our menu. For a full-on Detroit pie experience, DTown Pizzeria is a must. Made by native Michigander Ryan Ososky, these hefty pies come with the sauce on top, the stretchy cheese, and all the crusty-cornered deliciousness one could want. The latest location serves out of Topanga Social in Woodland Hills. This sports bar-meets-Indian-pizza-parlor has quickly built a following for shareable pies.
"It was not easy to do. We scrapped it for probably a year and a half, we stopped and I just said 'I can't do it...it cannot be done," shared Mahler. This latest addition to our menu has already become our customers’ favorite. It could be a pizza, pasta, soup/salad combo or even a dessert pizza.
Toppings range from soy-braised beef and roasted garlic kimchi to Japanese curry and fresh cilantro. Extensive research and experimentation went into the Asian-style pizza crust. There is a reason why our slogan says, "It's Worth The Dough". It's one of a kind and I am sure you will love it, piled high with your favorite topping and our freshly grated mozzarella cheese. The food is excellent, from Pizza to Sandwiches to the Fish and Chips.
