Pizza in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California... When the place to meet was Elbow Room, everyone asked about the parking. I usually go early for better selection and to beat the crowd... because there was an important game on TV and later, the place was packed and noisy! Luckily, I found a space on the street... metered parking... while Rose parked in a nearby lot for about $10 for 4 hours or so. There were many hightop tables. We sat near the door for better lighting and fresh air. Service was friendly and efficient. We ordered at the bar and our pizza was delivered to our table. We shared a half Meat Lovers and a half Cacio e Pepe (vegetarian). It was delicious! The crust and combination of ingredients was great! Thanks for a wonderful foodie adventure, Mikey, Te-See, and Rose! Note: there's a convenient restroom and outside dining in the back of the restaurant.

I went to watch the USA World Cup game so it got pretty packed. I got there early so my group could grab a table. The staff is welcoming and it feels like a neighborhood bar. There are a good amount screens so we had no problems seeing the screens to watch the game. For food, we got a pizza and garlic fries. Both were good and I'd definitely order them again. The prices are reasonable and there are also happy hour deals. Parking is a challenge, but that's to be expected in Hollywood. There is a lot nearby for paid parking or there are meters on the street. We had a great time and will be back! Thank you to the staff for handling such a busy night so smoothly.

Almost half eaten pizza. Should've taken the photo when it was first delivered, but it was so delicious, I snapped this.

This place is it! Not much for a sports bar feel, but the crowd felt like a neighborhood bar. The food though. Very on point. I had one of the best pepperoni pizzas of my life. High-quality ingredients. Served with a side of what I think was probably grated high quality pecorino. Also had fried chicken wings which were cooked perfection, crispy and hot. Restaurant was busy, but servers are very efficient and very friendly, and we had such a nice time. I highly recommend Elbow Room if you want a delicious pizza. Full bar as well. Really great place.

Cacio e Pepe slice

Came here for some drinks as my friends and I were visiting from out of town. Decent beer selection. Seating was limited so we had to wait for a table. Bartenders and staff were friendly. The pizza? Amazing. Get the Cacio e Pepe, you won't regret it! All 4 of us loved it!!

I saw this spot after having dinner in the area. I decided to stop by with friends. The bouncer at the door was very nice. No cover charge (Saturday 6:30ish). They have indoor and outdoor seating. They also have TV's in case you want to catch a game. It's open seating first come first serve with QR code menus at the table. Cons: messy bathrooms and no cognac. Pros: staff is nice, drinks are reasonably priced, no cover charge.

Had a great late lunch at The Elbow Room with one of my clients and was genuinely impressed. The prices were incredibly affordable, especially for the quality of the food. The pizza was fantastic, and the steak bites were absolutely amazing. Great atmosphere, great food, and great value. Definitely looking forward to going back.

Happy Hour!

A friend met up with me in Hollywood and she wasn't familiar with the bar/lounge scene. So I told her that we need to check out the places on the Cahuenga strip. The Elbow Room was packed because of a game so it was a fun time people watching. The door guy have a cool east coast vibe and they are awesome! "Been here before?Get in here!" Is a great order from them. My friend & I were both excited that happy hour went to 8pm. She was extra excited that frosé was a happy hour item. You order with the bartender and they give you a number to place wherever you're sitting. The bartenders are awesome, fast and have their own special style. The kitchen is encased in glass so you can see the deicious pizzas and the cooks working hard. We went out to the back patio where there's tons of high top tables and chairs. There even a chill back-back patio with little lights for ambiance. We ordered flatbreads. The food runner dropped off circular metal plates, crushed red peppers and some parmesan cheese. The delicious flatbreads came on wooden chopping boards! Afterwards we went back into the bar. Ordered two more drinks. Mine was an Elbow Mule.

Meatballs Ricotta Pizza
Dallas A.

Really solid pizza -- they offer it by the slice or as a whole pie (if you have multiple people in your party, the whole pie is a much better value). I thought the crust was perfectly cooked and would love to come back to try other flavors of pizza. The inside of the restaurant is super casual, but kept very clean. They have a full bar, and you have to order and food/drink at the bar -- there aren't waiters to take orders, so don't sit around waiting for table service like we did.

Bar

Small bar with an appeal. The place was crowded and lively! They have pizza and other food, as well as drinks of course. The pizza was large and deliciously amazing! So good.... On the middle of Cahuenga in a busy block. There was even a patron with his large dog inside. The people were real friendly and welcoming. We met a couple from Australia. They even offered to share their food with us. Their flatbread pizza looked great. We were on our way next door and will be back here soon. Parking in the area goes from $20-$40. It's one of the liveliest parts of Hollywood.

THIS BAR IS THE VIBE! Late night pizza, 2000s pop/punk/alt music, sports on the screens, and enough seating for everyone. Basically my habitat. They sell pizza by the slice or full 20" pie! It was very very good and huge. I had two slices and was in a food coma. There is bar seating, table seating, and also an outdoor patio. For a spot on such a busy nightlife street in Hwood, it was so inviting and chill. Will be back!

Elbow Room on Cahuenga Blvd is hands down the best sports bar in Hollywood. The atmosphere is always fun and energetic, especially on game days. The staff are super friendly, welcoming, and attentive, which really makes the experience even better. The food is always fresh and made to order. you can tell they care about quality. They also have a great variety of cocktails and frozen drinks, plus delicious pizza and tasty bites that are perfect for sharing while watching a game. If you're looking for a top-notch sports bar in the area with great service, great food, and great vibes, Elbow Room is the place to be. Highly recommend

Pesto Pizza, Large Pizza with jalapeños and pepperoni custom pizza, and wings
Sophia B.

Pesto Flat Bread is the way to go! The wings had great flavor. Took a minute for the pizza to come out, but it was pretty good. The bar was on and poppin and the Bartender there knew his stuff.

This place is lively and fun, but definitely not ideal for large parties. The place is small.

I arrived at 3:30 p.m. for a 6:00 p.m. World Cup match after being told by the establishment a week…read moreearlier that seating was first-come, first-served and that arriving before 4:00 p.m. would not be a problem. When I arrived, there were only about 15-20 people ahead of me in line. As the afternoon progressed, the line stretched down the street, yet no staff member came outside to communicate capacity limits, seating availability, or where the line should reasonably end. Even more concerning, patrons were not admitted until after the match had already started. The situation quickly became chaotic. People who had waited for hours were understandably frustrated, and many were openly voicing their concerns. Groups were admitted one at a time, creating further delays. When it was finally my turn to enter, I was informed that all tables had been taken and that only standing room remained. I was allowed to look inside before deciding whether to stay. What I observed was particularly disappointing: many individuals who had not been ahead of me in line were already seated at tables. I have no idea how they got in but I suspect they were allowed in through some other entrance. After waiting more than two hours based on the information provided by the establishment, this felt unfair and misleading. Most disappointing was having invited friends to join me for the match, only to have the experience ruined by what appeared to be poor planning and inadequate crowd management. The demand for a major World Cup match should not have come as a surprise. If the venue anticipated significant attendance, additional seating, staffing, and clear communication should have been put in place. This was one of the most poorly managed event experiences I have encountered. At a minimum, I believe the ownership should publicly acknowledge what occurred and apologize to the many customers who invested hours of their time only to be left without the accommodations they were promised. Unfortunately, I will not be returning.

I came here on a Saturday night and this is probably one of my least favorite pochas because of the…read morefood and drink quality.   Firstly the drinks: When we went they were BOGO and around $18 each so it was a pretty good deal for $9 a drink which was perfect for my group of 4. My friend and I split the love bug and it was disappointing. It tasted fruity, but watered down and it felt like there was barely an alcohol in it. I also tasted my other friends' drinks which were also not good. The raspberry beret and the peach paloma were both bitter and not pleasant tasting.   For food, the only decent thing was the buldak. It was cheesy and I liked how they infused the corn cheese into it. The chicken was good and juicy. The tteokkbokki was weird. Firstly, they didn't include the parmesan crisps as they mentioned in the menu. Secondly, the sauce was different compared to other tteokkbokki sauces I'm used to. It was dark red in color, soupy, and oily which I did not like. Thirdly, the rice and fish cakes themselves were very unique in shape. The cakes and sausages weren't that bad and the textures were good, but the sauce was just not it.  Lastly, the ramen was such a scam. For $15, it was just regular shin ramyeon with some mussels, jalapenos and peppers added. For all the food dishes, the portions were all small relative to the price and were not great for sharing in big groups.   The interior was spacious and vibes were decent. The music from the DJ booth was good. The photobooth wasn't working when we visited which was a minus because my friends and I like the photobooths. There's a free and private parking lot next to the pocha which can get filled.   Overall, not the greatest experience at this pocha mostly because of the food and drinks and I would probably not visit again.
