    We tried a few things and everything was solid, but the white pizza definitely stole the show, so flavorful and perfectly done. The Hawaiian was good too, but the white pizza was easily my favorite between the two. We also ordered empanadas (spinach with cheese and short rib), and both were really delicious. The real standout, though, was the chimichurri sauce so good, it took everything to the next level. Micaela and Karen were super sweet and made the whole experience even better. Would absolutely come back

    Tried this place on a recent Friday night at 8:00pm, and it was a pleasant experience. It is located in Downtown Downey, which houses lots of restaurants, bars, stores, etc. There's mostly structure lot parking in this area, but you may be able to find street parking too. The ambiance of Avenue Pizzeria is quaint and quiet, compared to all of the louder bar/club restaurants nearby. It's a nice contrast, if that's what you're looking for. The staff were super helpful and fun to chat with. The pizza itself is decent, and they have a to-go window outside which is convenient.

    We love going to Avenue Pizza! Especially for happy hour the slices are half price during that time and a great little snack to have. My favorite size is the mushroom. I also really enjoy the meatball red pepper slice. The staff is super nice and I love going to try new flavors!

    Great happy hour special. Cute little pizza place right on Downey Ave. Fresh slices -- almost New York style

    Pepperoni pizza was fabulous! Went here on a whim thinking it would be whatever and it was amazing. Crispy on bottom and enough cheese on top, which is often an issue for me. Would definitely go back!! Maybe 8 choices at 7:30pm on a weekday plus empanadas.

    What a great experience. This pizzeria is a fantastic reuse of a former movie theater! I loved how they preserved photos and elements from the original theater. It gives the space so much character! The food was excellent! I got a slice of pepperoni and chicken buffalo pizza and both were delicious! It's always refreshing to see a space thoughtfully reimagined and executed this well. I can't wait to come back again.

    Good price, good food, $5 happy hour with piping hot pies and a classic pizzeria setting. There's a limited selection for vegetarians but what I could order did hit the spot, especially the marinara sauce that comes with the garlic knots. I cleaned that little container. And they weren't skimpy with it either. All the food are served steaming hot, soft and crunchy in all the right places. Nothing was too greasy or too cheesy to lick off your fingers after eating. It's a childish habit I'm not sure if I could ever quit. Where times like this, there's no justification on wiping all that flavor off. Perfect kind of place for a slice of NY nostalgia, just off the street, all that's missing is a cellar for stand up next door.

    This was a great little find. Chelly was super kind. Enjoyed some good pizza at a reasonable price while watching the Savannah Bananas

    It's all about the crust! If you want thin crispy crust, this is the place to go. What we really…read morelove about their pizza, is that they put toppings all the way out to the edge. Never a full bite of bread! We shared a 12 inch pizza, and honestly it was enough for the both of us in one sitting. We got here right at 11 am, so we were the first customers. Took about 20 minutes to get our pizza. However it did look like they were already making orders from online or the phone. We went pretty basic for our toppings and got the standard marinara sauce. They actually have some garlic sauces we will be trying next time. And yes, there will be a next time!

    We discovered Burattino Brick Oven Pizza on Instagram and couldn't wait to try it--the videos of…read moretheir pepperoni pizza looked incredibly cheesy and appealing. While in California for a cruise, we even extended our stay an extra night just to visit their Carson location. Unfortunately, it was a huge disappointment. The pizza we received was the driest we've ever had. It was like biting into cardboard. Red Baron frozen pizza tastes better. Looking at other reviews, some pizzas looked much better, while others appeared just as dry as ours, so it seems inconsistent. The customer service was good, and I appreciate that, but we wouldn't return for the pizza. Overall, very disappointing.
