Pizzana West Hollywood

Now, you can find chef Daniele Uditi's Italian small plates and award-winning pizzas just off a buzzing stretch of West Hollywood, complete with a small patio, beer, wine and desserts. Pizzana delivers (mostly) consistent wood-fired pies, antipasti and salads that, at their best, will transport you to Italy, the birthplace of head chef Daniele Uditi. At their worst, Pizzana still makes a pretty good pizza. Almost everything on the menu comes from family recipes that Uditi inherited, and the dough is made using a decades-old starter that’s been in his family for generations. The cacio e pepe pizza topped with rich parmesan cream is a highlight, but we can’t ever deny the Corbarina, made with squash blossoms, burrata and gremolata. No matter the order, this one-of-a-kind L.A. fast-casual pizza truly feels like the best of both worlds, new and old.
