Cheese Slice
Kassi A.

The sauce was good. The crust was tasty and chewy. It had a solid fold, no flop. Giant slices,Just simple, decent NY style pizza.

Date night vibes
Raymond L.

Love this place, I'm famous for always writing a review way after I should. This place has great service and the pizza is really good. Great date spot!

Menu is extensive https://www.yelp.com/menu/johnnies-los-angeles-7 But it's the All Star Pizza we love!

"To sum up, consistency is not just a goal to strive for in restaurant operations; it's an essential ingredient for success. It builds customer trust and loyalty, ensures quality control, streamlines operations, facilitates staff training and development, and provides a competitive edge. Feb 23, 2024"* Johnnie's gets that philosophy, that business model. We continue to order the cheese pie just like we remember, expect from the last time (There have been many reprises since my original review.) All I must say is, this pie was as good as the previous pies! Happy Johnnie's still offers a 12" pizza. From my 2018 review: "Thin, crispy crust, not mushy in the middle so slice 'folds' properly. Savory well-seasoned red sauce spread evenly. Mozzarella distributed with a light hand." Delivery available. We pick up. Parking on Ensley Avenue or at a pay station on little Santa Monica Boulevard. * https://tripleseat.com/blog/why-consistency-is-vital-for-restaurant-operations/

Classic Cheese Pizza with Sun-Dried Tomatoes
Kamron H.

In short, I don't regret coming here but I wouldn't go out of my way to eat it again either. Pizza it's pretty good but basic, good though if you want a convenient lunch option. Although, I did have their Italian quesadilla which is basically a medium pizza golden in half, but it is slightly cheaper than the medium pizza so worth that deal there. They also make slices and the Italian quesadillas here pretty quickly too if you need a meal to go in a pinch

Really like their pizza but ordered wings this time and disappointed by the size of these wings! And there was actually a smaller one than this one pictured.

Classic Pepperoni Pizza
Arvin P.

I always mean to come here more often than I do. They have parking in the back but I usually park on the street. I buy pizza by the slice here and it's always delicious. It's nice and fresh out of the oven. The staff here always treats me great. Nothing fancy about this place which is fine, and I'm glad I'm always able to get a seat by the window. Looking forward to coming back to try different things!

Pizza, garlic rolls and lasagna.

Johnnie's New York Pizza is located right near Santa Monica. It is a great place for lunch or dinner. You can eat there, have it delivered or pick it up. Parking is not the best but you will be able to find a spot. Johnnie's pizza is real New York style pizza and you will love it. Nothing is made ahead of time, and all their food is fresh and amazing. They make the best pizza. A large is big enough for 4 people if you also order another dish, otherwise it is perfect for 3 people. All of their ingredients are fresh and so good. They will add whatever toppings you want or you can just get a plain cheese, which is super. I also love their pasta dishes. They make a super tasty lasagna, and their ravioli is great. The best are their garlic rolls. They are always fresh and just loaded with that garlic flavor you love. The service is excellent and they never get my order wrong. So go there and have fun.

Simple decor
Erik B.

Charming on the outside and with an inside decorated with tables fitted with traditional checkered Italian tablecloth. Located right across the street from the Westfield mall, this simple Italian eatery offers a range of traditional Italian sandwiches. Like eggplant, Parmesan, pizza, appetizers, and salads. The vibe is loose and hip but the food is of decent quality The pizza is pretty simple and thin crust, not offering much to help it stand out compared to most other Italian pizza restaurants. But the ambience and wide menu of choices provides it with enough personality. Would I ever come back here? Not sure... but I am glad to have finally tried a preeminent Los Angeles pizza establishment in an otherwise charming neighborhood.

Pepperoni Pizza (medium)
Brittany J.

Pizza Pizza Pizza. pepperoni pizza wad yummy. Good crust and cheese. Not too much grease. Garlic knots were good but not my favorite. Little dry. There is free shared parking behind the building which is fabulous for LA. Inside was old school traditional Pizza place. Could use some updating. We ordered at the counter and sat down at an open table. Woman who took our order also delivered our food. Quick and efficient

We went to De La Nonna for book club, and while I had been here once before and remembered enjoying…read moreit, I feel like this second visit I was really able to settle in and appreciate the food. The Caesar salad was probably one of the best Caesar salads I've had. It was light, crisp, and refreshing without feeling overly heavy. We also had the crudo, which was excellent, and the burrata with tomatoes and crispy bread -- so simple but so good. Everyone at the table was loving it. But the pizzas were definitely a highlight for me. I love the square shape and that thick, crispy dough. And the chili oil they give you on the side is SO good. Such a great little touch and definitely something I kept going back to. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a really nice patio and a lovely indoor space. The staff was friendly, they have a great wine list, and we had a delicious Blanc de Blancs sparkling that paired perfectly with dinner. Overall, De La Nonna is just a great restaurant for a relaxed dinner with good food, good wine, and good company. I'm glad I got to come back because I definitely appreciated it even more this time around.

One star for the venue itself, but unfortunately, I wasn't impressed with the overall experience…read more The Margherita pizza was disappointing. The dough was extremely soft and had a texture more like sliced bread than a properly baked pizza crust. The service was also questionable. The cashier didn't seem familiar with the menu and was trying to handle three different things at once, which made the whole ordering process feel disorganized. Overall, the atmosphere has potential, but the food and service didn't live up to it.

They were all really good, but the Saint Barb stood out to me. What really made the night, though, was our server, Jayson.

Great food, great service, and an awesome night overall. Can't wait to go back! Just a heads-up: it's Echo Park/Silver Lake, so parking can be tough, as expected. You'll find a spot.

Servers were also very friendly and the interior is cozy and clean. Parking is street parking, good luck. We arrived 5:15pm on a Saturday (15 min after opening) and we didn't get reservations so we had to wait one hour to dine in. We could have gotten it to-go, but there's only 1.5 tables outside where you can stand and eat in front of all the people waiting. Even after getting seated and ordering, it still took a while for the food to arrive. Seating is tight inside and my partner & I were seated at a 4 seat table next to two women, so we couldn't help but listen to their entire conversation about going to therapy & problems with their moms. The princess cake is good but I'm not sure what the hype is. I don't think it's worth $15... I would just stick to the pizza if I come back. I do have to say the pizza is very greasy, so much that it did end up hurting my stomach, but I still enjoyed each bite.

My partner and I planned a wonderful trip to LA...I hadn't been there in a decade, she'd never…read morebeen. And everything went wrong. And I mean everything. One of the few things that didn't go wrong was finding this spot. The gentleman who was making the pizza (I'm sorry, I didn't get his name, which was rude of me) was exceptionally friendly and welcoming, he treated the other customers with dignity and familiarity, let my partner take video of him doing his dough flipping and was just genuinely pleasant. And then there's the pizza. Holy heck was it good. You know what? Good isn't even close. It was perfect. It was only a basic pepperoni, but what we got for our money was insane. It was prepared with care, baked perfectly, was absolutely HUGE, the cheese and pepperoni were perfectly distributed and the crust was just the right balance; not too thin, not too thick. And the flavor...get out of here. Just awesome. The pepperoni had the right amount of kick, the sauce was both sweet and tangy with a kick of black pepper, the cheese had a wonderfully salty character, but remained succulent. It was absolutely delightful. If you're in the area and looking for good pizza you will not be disappointed if you visit this shop.

The owner is super friendly, gave us a quick rundown of the ingredients he used in the pizzas, and provided us with a ton of napkins, paper plates, and condiments. All of which were much appreciated. The Alfredo pizza, however, was just average in my honest opinion. Crust was thick and doughy. Alfredo sauce was salty. The pizza did not heat up well the next day either and was even saltier.
