So this place is really awesome it was a little cold but I will definitely be back for the flavor it was some thing I enjoyed witch I don't say often. read more

Simply amazing. Price is right, all workers there were very kind. I love the white pizza and bbq salad most. My hubby loves Bolognese pasta and margherita pizza. we both love the cheese that they use. I definitely recommend here:-) read more

Customer service- awful Food- ok So I ordered food to go here and actually left a $0 tip, which is completely unheard of for me but considering the fact that it took the staff over 5 minutes to realize that I was waiting to order when there was no one else in there. Then, after I placed my order (two slices with fresh mozzarella and onion) the woman stared and me dumbfounded and rudely said "fresh mozzarella?" I confirmed and she informed me that it wasn't a topping. I remind her that it's on her menu and she says, "Well, it's really expensive so it's not for slices." The way it was handled was awful and I feel like they may just have the kitchen staff working the register- a bad move. It's a shame because the pizzas not bad. read more

Pizza is always awesome, however I found the service at this Johnnie's to be lacking in the customer service dept. I went in July 13th 2014 (this is for the owners/management to know who was working that night). The man-boy (short chubby lil guy) was pretty rude. He was eating at a table when I walked in, whipped his hands on his shirt, dropped my credit card on the ground, got it all greasy, didn't apologize, and served me my pizza dead cold. Did I eat it? Yes. Was it good? Yes, but... I like my pizza RIPPING hot. Again ... Never an issue with the Pizza, but Management, if you're reading this... Do something about this guy. He's kind of a bummer. read more

How can you go wrong with pizza ??? We ordered a pepperoni pizza and a vegetarian . The crust was paper thin and completely bland. It had no flavor at all. The vegetarian pizza had a few onions and tomatoes with a handful of olives scattered around - same with the pepperoni. It was like eating cardboard. I have never seen pizza as thin as the pizza we received and it was lukewarm when it was delivered. Gave them one star because I'm being nice. read more

I'm a pizza lover so I'm always looking for great places like this place. Came here by recommendation and it did not disappoint. Friendly and attentive staff, which is always important. Took a bite even before taking the picture because it smelled supper delicious and best believe my mouth was watery! read more

The food here is amazing!!!! This is as close to New York Italian food as we are ever going to get in Cali. Since I am from New Jersey originally, I know good back east food when I taste it and this comes pretty close! My fiancé and I ate for $22 so the prices are reasonable. We will DEFINITELY be back here again. read more

Great for after the beach , get the garlic bread! And split a large pizza feeds four adults! Great staff and cooks! read more

Johnnies - Barbecue chicken and Hawaiian ! Free delivery if you order out/ tip the driver obviously - Pizza Near Me - Venice, California

Delicious pizza! We had a classic cheese and a white pie. Great crust, great flavor, really delicious! The Caesar salad was also a winner with their super garlicky Caesar dressing. Garlic knots were good, nothing to write home about but decently good. Would def order again! read more

The Alfredo and Garlic knots were great, but the eggplant parm was even worse than the airline food that you never want to eat but do anyway because it feels like you haven't eaten in 19 hours. read more

"It's not NY, but in LA, it's the 2nd closest thing..." Grew up in Philly, lived in NY, (and I'm Italian) so I know pizza. I'd rate this tied for 2nd (with Abbot) as far as pizza in LA (Mulberry #1). Way better than Pizza Hut or that horrible Papa John's! Go classic - pepperoni & mushroom, and you can't go wrong. Salads aren't bad either. read more

Just ordered pizza for delivery via Grubhub. Johnnie's accepted the order and then waited nearly an hour to cancel it. Based on the other Grubhub reviews, terrible service is a consistent problem with this place. I'll never order from here again. read more

Contact the Vatican. I have found the Holy Grail of Pizza, not Piza. Although I did have to lean for support after consuming more than my share of the pie along with a freshly chopped salad from Johnnie's NY Pizzeria, I still managed to whisper satisfyingly, "Mamma Mia!" Here I go, but honestly I could not resist from having one slice after another. Now, I'm comparing my recent epiphany to probably romanticized memories of some of the most unique pizzas that I've had on a trip to Italy more than a few years ago. The combinations of fresh produce, seafood, and salumi toppings spoiled me even for the most talked about pies in this country (i.e. from old-school Lombardi and Batali's Otto in NY to Nancy Silverton's Mozza in LA). After years of searching, I honestly gave up. Then, came Johnnie's... When a friend suggested that we dial up a couple of pizzas for dinner after a day of watching Kobe and the Lakers, followed by tennis and a swim, I thought it was brilliant. The same friend who has been a long time fan of Johnny's New York Pizza on Abbot Kinney just west of Lincoln insisted that I try the NY White Pie. In less than 20 minutes, dinner arrived with creamy garlic sauce, gourmet mozzarella cheese, sautéed baby spinach and an additional shrimp topping. I admit I had some suspicion but the burgundy was getting into my head so when in Rome... Ahh, it's a miraculous conception. It's carbonara on a pie but better with lightly cooked shrimp, perfectly pink and not at all rubbery. (Btx, the secret code is to order it slightly undercooked and crisp it up in the oven for a few mins just before serving.) I also recommend the NY Chopped Salad. The list of ingredients include Italian salami, garbanzo beans, roma tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, diced zucchinis and carrots, Kalamata olives, and corn, just to name a few. Tossed with a lightly dressed vinaigrette, the salad was a perfect accompaniment to a meal worthy of a saint. Johnnie's is my latest favorite pizzeria west of the 405. Standouts on the menu according to long time fans and neighbors: NY White Pie, NY Chopped Salad, Vegetarian Chopped Salad, Homemade Lasagna, and Johnnie's Combo. http://bellygasm.typepad.com read more

The garlic bread barely tasted like it had any garlic on it. Johnnie's Combo: Soggy crust, bland ingredients, and over priced. Enough said. read more

Pizza is good ! They have garlic bread with some awesome marinara sauce! Will definitely come back every time we are in the area. Good service friendly employees. read more

So I tried this place for lunch two days in a row. First visit was yesterday and my coworker picked up lunch there today. Let's start with yesterday. I got a chicken panini and coworker got pizza and Caesar salad. My panini was literally awful. The bread tasted weird and the chicken was SO DRY it was like eating a chicken flavored piece of sawdust. The bread was also super dry and had almost no sauce of any kind. My coworker liked her salad and said the pizza was OK. Imo it didn't look too good either. Extremely greasy; like shiny. To be fair- the two guys working were very polite and friendly. I almost gave them an extra start just for that but today's experience made that impossible. Today, when my coworker called to place our order, the girl who answered was rude and had a short attitude for the entire call. She also wasn't familiar with the menu and didn't know if our order could be placed as requested (despite the fact I was reading it DIRECTLY off their website). After she abruptly placed us on hold for a couple minutes, she came back and stated we could not have the order as requested. Honestly... this part kinda pisses me off. Let's be clear -- I wasn't asking for some special shit like boil my pasta in Evian, cut all the veggies in 1/8 inch cubes, and make sure all my noodle tips are pointing east upon pickup ok..? I asked for a lunch pasta combo with one of the pastas that is listed on the menu. Literally no extra / special requests on the pasta combo meal AT ALL. Anyways, a reasonable amount of time passes and my coworker goes to pick up the food. The lid on my pasta was not fastened correctly and sauce spilled all over the bag. That being said, the pesto sauce was so GREASY that there was literally a pool of oil in the bottom of the dish; and the bag where it spilled out. Suck. A couple good points- The carrots and broccoli in my dish were very fresh and well prepared; even if they were drowning in oil. The two actual pieces of bruschetta we got were also very good. For some reason, they give you an adequate amount of bread and one tiny, tiny cup of sauce to go with it. So basically 2/3 of the bread will have to be eaten dry- yay. That's exactly what I wanted.. my coworker got some sort of chicken sandwich type thing and guess what? It was DRY as hell. She also commented that the salad didn't have enough dressing... wtf. So bummed since I love Italian and this place is super convenient. Based off my first two experiences, I doubt there will be a third. read more

After receiving a sincere apology I will reconsider my original decision. Love to see that some restaurant owners still take pride and care about their guests and their experiences at their establishments. Thanks for your message and your concern. read more

This Pizza was the best Pizza I've had in Los Angeles. it's amazing because I just stopped by coincidentally. i had the pepperoni pizza and the pizza was just really amazingly freaking good. Exactly what a pizza is supposed to be. The sauce cheese and dough were all really good. I seriously recommend this place and i know i'll be ordering from here now on. What a find! good job Johnnie's people keep up the good work!!! read more

The delivery was over 45 minutes late. The pizza is cold The reason I gave it a 2 stars because the delivery man was nice. $70 for 2 cold pizza read more

Thought we would try this while in town, good pizza and excellent service. I don't think we will seek this place out when we're in town again, but if we happen to be walking by and are hungry we will stop in again read more

The pizza here is as NY as it gets. The crust was crispy and the cheese was just perfect. I can't believe that this place doesn't have at least a 4 star on Yelp. read more

Pizza-Soggy Raviolis-Mediocre Bruschetta-Nothing Special, Tomatoes not ripe Ordering Process-AWFUL Don't do it. Digiorno would have been a better choice. Or a run to Whole Foods for some fresh made pizza. read more

Simply the worst service in Los Angeles pizza was delivered raw not cooked I guess they are too rushed to cook their pizza They use to be good The cook they have now has no experience making pizza Maybe they should fire him and get someone who cares about their customers read more

This is possibly the best Pizza in the whole USA! It has the best tasting sauce's and Salads and those garlic knots are the best! My favorite they always deliver on time and there are no words to describe how good their pasta is. YOu won't be sorry if you order here! read more

The food here was simply the best I've had in a very long time. The staff is very friendly and the prices are amazing. Me and my fiance had two full meals for only $22 and that was with drinks you can't even get that good service at McDonald's. I recommend if you love Italian food from back east this is the place to go. read more

Decent pizza but horrible customer service. They sent the wrong pizza and did nothing about it. Blamed everyone else. Wtf? I ate the pizza that arrived and will order elsewhere in the future. read more

Great order !! We ordered the cheese pizza with a Caesar salad and loved both. The pizza was crispy with the right amount of cheese and sauce. Thank you !! read more

This is a great place to get authentic pizza with so many options, which will definitely serve a variety of people perfectly (from veggiterian to meat lovers!) We've tried White PI, Veggie Delight and Shrimp Scampi and they were all AMAZING! We've also tried Nutty Salad, which was super fresh with fruits and delicious dressing sauce. Everything was so perfect. Don't order Domino pizza. With better price, you will get the best authentic NY style pizza and pasta for sure. The owner is so kind and he took care of us really well. We will definitely come back and recommend this place to my friends in this area. :) read more

Johnnies - Nutty Salad is the best! - Pizza Near Me - Venice, California

I love this place!!! Amazing pizza and pasta! Especially loved the nutty salad. Yum!

Decent choice in the area. Nothing groundbreaking but reliable and consistent. Fast delivery.

Just not good at all. Cheese and sauce are low quality and flavorless. Lots of better options around the area

The calzone had zero cheese inside, the vegetables were raw, the meat was non-existent, horrible crust, wasn't hot, horrible terrible, no good, very bad Johnnie's. Oh, yeah, got the wings as well. You know when you microwave frozen wings and theyre just mushy terrible sad and dream-killing? these wings are worse than that. straight up. Never go here. Shun this place. Shun it hard. read more

Always solid pizza and nice delivery guys. When they charge you for an item like garlic or sausage ....you actually see it and taste it. Point person could be a little clearer on the phone but all good. read more

Are you in the Venice Beach area and in the mood for a great pizza with premium ingredients! Then stop by here!!! Tastes great and not heavy! A must try!!! read more

I don't know how this place has only 3 stars! I order all the time and always love the pies. Really good crunchy and chewy crust with awesome cheese and sauce. I'm from Wisconsin and a real cheese snob when it comes to pizza. Johnnie's is my go to in the Venice/Marina area hands down. Try the mushroom and anchovy after some beers! My wife has Celiac so we always get the GF pizzas as well. Tip: order the GF pizzas well done. read more

I'm not a big pizza fan, but every now and again, I crave a NY White Pie (with extra cheese). Thankfully, Johnnie's has one on their menu, and it is 5 minutes from my home. I ordered one to pick up, and I arrived exactly on time. It was not quite ready, but that was not a problem, because I'd rather wait than receive a lukewarm pizza. When we arrived home after picking it up, there it was: piping hot and fresh, crispy crust, melty, cheesy yumminess! Delicious! I've lived in the community since Johnnies's opened a number of years ago, and quality has varied somewhat. The last time I had one of these white pies a few months ago, I ordered it with extra cheese, and it still seemed very skimpy. This time, however, it was great! I guess it depends on who is making the pie. I suspect the owner (or whoever the older dude who was there in the past) is a little more skimpy, but the younger employees, who baked the pizza this time out, made a great pizza for me. I appreciate it! read more

I've had my share of NY Style Pizza's and this is surprisingly one of the better of that style I've had in LA so far. They claim they get the water from New York and maybe that does make a difference since the crust while thin, is flexible and chewy. The toppings are good and plentiful and their white pie with spinach and garlic really has some good flavor to it. I was suspect of this being a mini-chain but it's a pretty good pie and I want to try the pastas next. read more

Downhill. Inconsistent. Do NOT order delivery. Your food will arrive cold after an hour and a half. Pizza was thin and with no flavor. My white pizza didn't have the garlic cream sauce it had NO sauce. Totally disappointed. I used to really enjoy their pizza. read more

The food is mediocre and the lady at the counter is very rude. Worst service. Sandwich was dry..
