Pizzeria Bianco

One of Phoenix’s best pizzerias has arrived at ROW DTLA. Since opening, Chris Bianco has won over plenty of Angelenos with more takeout-friendly styles at lunch, but the James Beard Award-winning pizzaiolo’s signature New York-Neopolitan hybrid pies, available only at dinner are the real reason to come here here. For those who can score a table (don’t even try walking in for dinner), Bianco’s maximalist approach to thin-crust pies makes jockeying for a reservation a worthwhile quest for hardcore pizza fans. Comparatively, while still tasty and available for hopeful walk-ins, the lunch-only pies fall short of the original recipe that made Bianco famous—and even earned the chef a spot on the latest Chef’s Table season on Netflix.
