Was visiting LA Chinatown and stopped by here for lunch. This spot is pretty cool with Dodgers theme, serving pizzas, sandwiches, hotdogs, salads, and great alcoholic drinks. We ordered the Upside Down Trifecta pizza, the Good Old Boy by the slice, and the All Beef Flat Top Hotdog. Foods came out pretty quick. We pretty much enjoyed our lunch. And the staffs were pretty chill and friendly. If you are a Dodgers fan or just enjoy eating pizza, this is the place to be.

Mama's Boy Pizza
Jeff C.

Loved it. Definitely one of the best pies in town. Inside has an old school, pizza parlor vibe. A few tables for seating, a couple TVs to watch a game, there's also a couple tables in front for outside seating. The pies are delicious! Love the sourdough thin crust. I can definitely recommend the Mama's Boy pizza. The wings are pretty good too but I wouldn't mind a little more crisp for my taste. Service was good. Friendly staff. There's street meter parking but you might have to walk a block or two.

Wasn't sure what to expect going in but was actually surprised how good the food was. The Mortadella Focaccia sandwich was amazing. The bread was crisp but not oily, unlike other focaccia I've had. The mortadella and burrata were fresh and delicious, though I didn't particularly taste pistachio. Also got Burrata and Mookie slices, which were good, but the standout for me was the sandwich. It's very casual, order at the counter, find a seat. We went on a Saturday around 6pm and there were only a couple open tables inside (there was also outdoor seating but it was super hot and sunny).

THE SALAD BAR
Hailey J.

~ food: the salad bar: 10/10 love the ranch dressing and all the toppings. i'm not a big fan of chickpeas but the crunchy chickpeas were amazing with this salad good boy pizza: 10/10 one of the best pizzas i've had in LA! everything about this pizza was amazing. i love how it was the perfect blend of spicy and sweet but not overly salty ~ service: 10/10 friendly. place can get very busy but seats open up pretty quickly ~ parking: limited chinatown street parking but lots of paid parking available for $5+

Inside

I never expected to rate a pizza spot 5 stars since I am not a huge fan of pizza, but here I am! Came in to watch the last dodgers home game of the regular season with some friends, and was immediately impressed by what a vibe it was inside. The walls are filled with LA sports memorabilia and felt like the perfect place to spend the evening. We were grateful for the super kind staff for reserving a table for a big party of 12! There was a private event taking place after featuring a well known DJ, but they were nice enough to let us stay. Parking can be found metered on the street or in a lot right next to the building for $5. I had no problem getting a street spot on a Thursday night at around 7pm. The good boy pizza is not to be missed. It has all the fixings of what I love in pizza: hot honey, burrata, basil, pepperoni, and a thin crunchy crust. The poolside fries were also excellent, as they were thin and well seasoned. I usually never crave pizza, but I know that this is where I'm headed next time I do.

Cozy, inviting, casual. Friendly and welcoming staff. My first experience at La Sorted was great! Beat the dinner rush, jonesin' for a bite. Didnt expect to get a hot dog at a pizza spot but srsly one of the best hot dogs I've ever had. No frills. Snappy and flavorful. Worth coming back for - - and I'm gonna.

TURKEY FOCACCIA SANDWICH
Lovey A.

I wasn't expecting Boar's Head, but I wasn't expecting Oscar Meyer or whatever this is either. While this is one of my absolute favorite pizza spots in Los Angeles--do not ever get a turkey sandwich from here if you're from the East Coast.

MAMBA PEPPERONI SLICE - MOOKIE SLICE - GOOD BOY SLICE
Nicole G.

I've recently started becoming more and more of a pizza convert lol. Was never huge on american food since it's usually pretty heavy and greasy, but i've now learned the art of pizza, and La Sorted's does it right. We stopped by on a random Friday or Saturday evening after a night out and I was surprised to see it so poppin' at midnight . It felt like a cool and welcoming open concept bar that night with the loud music and dark moody lighting. Anyways, prices are phenomenal. $5-$7 large slices or you can get a whole pie box of 8 smaller slices for $20-$25. Mookie slice & good boy slice.. just do it. Oh and their selection of hot pepper oils and various pepper flakes is awesome.

If you are a Dodger fan, you gotta check this cool pizza spot. You can even watch the live game while dining.... The dining area is small and more tables outside. They serve appetizers, sandwiches, pizza, hot dog, salad, cookies, and drinks/beer. They even have vegan hot dog and vegan mozzarella cheese. Ordered: UPSIDE DOWN MAMBA SLICE - 3 Cheese Blend, House Tomato Sauce, Maldon Salt, Garlic Oil Crust, and Sicilian Oregano. Soda The pizza was delicious. I added the spicy haberneo peppers and it kicked up the knots big time. Mmm! Then I added droplets of chili oil. Boy, that made my delicious pizza spicier. LoL! There is a public parking right next to the restaurant, or you can park on the side street with the meter. Staff was friendly and helpful. I will definitely be back with my family.

They do not miss. It doesn't matter who is working the pizza is great and the service is great. The energy, the music, the decor everything is such a vibe it makes it easy to hang out and enjoy your food. We have been back about 6 times now and we just keep coming back for more. The whole menu is amazing, they are open late, they have slices so it's easy to try a few things. Last night I sat there looking around and was just so impressed by my the experience. It's one of those places that just feels so authentically LA. I'll be back.

I have been eyeing this place for over a year, so the family and I finally stopped by. Stree parking blows on weekends, especially if there is a home game... The place is tiny, with only a handful of tables. It felt like we were on a double date with the couple right next to us, lol. The walls are covered in memorabilia, cool images, bobbleheads, and all kinds of nostalgic baseball stuff. We ordered the fries, buffalo/ lemon pepper mix wings, and the Good Boy pizza. The wings were delicious! The seasoning combination was so flavorful. The pizza was excellent too. I've never tried hot honey glazed on pizza before, but it was a well rounded blend with the pepperoni and burrata. The fries were too fried, I honestly didn't quite like them, but still ate a few. Would definitely come back to try their other pizzas.

Cleveland polish boy special
Brett N.

Why 5 stars? Because this stop was not in the plans, but it really worked out for us. --- --- --- I meticulously planned out my vacation, meal by meal, and activity by activity. My first stop was to grab lunch at Howlin' Rays. We found parking and walked up to it, only to find out that it was closed on Monday's. Apparently I wasn't so meticulous. Side note: I then later planned a visit a couple days later, which I also screwed up because I thought they were open later than 7pm. Apparently Howlin' Rays wasn't meant to be. But once I discovered it was closed on Monday, I had to quicky pivot to find an alternative. La Sorted was our winner, so we found more street parking, and headed in. It turns out, I'm really happy we ended up here. We were in town to go to a couple Dodgers games, and the whole place is completely themed around the Dodgers. The food was awesome, but we really enjoyed looking around at all of the Dodger photos from the last 60+ years. But back to the food. A really cool thing they do here is that when a visiting team is in town, they offer one special food item that's tied to that team. We were here as Cleveland fans, and they did this cool Polish dog because CLE has a huge Polish population. There was another Cleveland fan sitting at a table and he told us that we definitely needed to order it, and who are we to argue with such a thing? I really enjoyed the pizza (I tried the Burrata, Mookie and Good Boy slices), but that polish dog might have the best thing. The owners in here really great too, despite us clearly being the enemy. Glad we came here!

SPICY BUT OH SO SWEET BOY PIZZA
Yvette S.

Ordered Lasorteds late night and it hit the spot. Crust was decent, a little on the thicker side than I prefer, but still had some crisp to it. The pepperoni had a nice spicy kick, which was probably the best part, but I wouldn't call it super spicy. It's one of those spots you go to because it's open and reliable, not because you're craving this specific pizza. Still, for late night, it holds its own.

Good boy and upside down

Once a thriving fried chicken chain with…read morelocations scattered throughout LA, Pioneer Chicken is now down to just two remaining restaurants, including this longtime Boyle Heights location. For many Angelenos who grew up eating here, Pioneer Chicken holds a special place in their hearts. It's more than just fried chicken; it's a taste of their childhood! I've been wanting to check this place out for quite some time and finally got around to giving it a shot! Walking inside felt like stepping back into the 1970s! I absolutely loved the retro aesthetic, vintage advertisements, historical photographs, and iconic rotating sign outside. There's something charming about a restaurant that has preserved so much of its original character. It's easy to see why nostalgia keeps this place alive! **THE FOOD:** The employee working the register was incredibly friendly and helpful when I asked for recommendations. I ordered the **3-Piece Chicken Dinner ($14.99)**, which includes two sides and a biscuit. I was undecided about the sides, so I asked for suggestions and went with the Spicy Rice and Mashed Potatoes. **Spicy Rice:** Probably the better of the two sides. It had a nice little kick of spice and contained a few small pieces of chicken. It wasn't bad, but nothing particularly memorable either. Just okay. **Mashed Potatoes:** Unfortunately, these were a major disappointment! They were incredibly dense, and not in a good way. The texture was unpleasant, and I really didn't enjoy them. I almost always feel obligated to order mashed potatoes with fried chicken, but these weren't worth it. I wouldn't recommend them! I was also disappointed that mac and cheese wasn't offered as a side. **Fried Chicken:** Now for the main attraction, and unfortunately, the biggest disappointment! At first glance, the chicken looked promising! It had a beautiful golden-brown exterior with a thick, crispy, almost kettle-cooked-looking crust. Visually, it looked delicious! Sadly, looks can be deceiving! The chicken was **INSANELY GREASY!** I honestly lost count of how many napkins I went through. The breading was excessively thick, making it feel like I was eating more batter than actual chicken. The meat itself wasn't particularly flavorful or enjoyable either. I reached for their hot sauce, hoping it would add some much-needed flavor. While it helped slightly, it wasn't enough to save the meal. Between the excessive grease, overwhelming breading, and underwhelming meat, I just couldn't get into it. I hate wasting food, but I ended up throwing away most of the chicken and mashed potatoes because I genuinely wasn't enjoying them. **THE SERVICE & ATMOSPHERE:** Thankfully, the service and atmosphere were the highlights of my visit! The employees were polite, welcoming, and genuinely helpful. One thing I found interesting was that the credit card machine prompted customers to leave a tip. That's not something I typically encounter at fast-food chains like KFC or Popeyes. That said, I'm happy to tip when I receive good service, and the employees here certainly deserved recognition for their friendliness. One of my favorite discoveries was the pair of old-school, coin-operated baseball pinball games! For just a quarter, you get to try hitting a home run by landing the ball in the hole. The best part? Regardless of whether you succeed, you still win a bouncy ball! I absolutely loved this little attraction! The employees were even happy to break my dollar into quarters so I could play. It's these little touches that make visiting a nostalgic establishment like Pioneer Chicken special. I also enjoyed looking through the old photographs and advertisements documenting the chain's history. There's something fascinating about seeing how a once-popular LA institution has evolved while holding on to its identity. **FINAL THOUGHTS:** From a food standpoint, Pioneer Chicken was a **2/5 experience** for me. The chicken was excessively greasy, the breading overwhelmed the meat, and the sides were disappointing. For a restaurant built around fried chicken, I expected much better. However, I'm bumping my overall rating to **3/5 stars** because of the friendly service, wonderful nostalgia, and preserved retro atmosphere. I think Pioneer Chicken is one of those places where the emotional connection is stronger than the food itself. People come here to relive childhood memories and experience a piece of LA history that has largely disappeared. I'm genuinely happy Pioneer Chicken is still around, keeping its legacy alive for longtime fans and curious first-time visitors like myself. I'm glad I finally experienced this iconic LA institution, but unfortunately, the food didn't live up to its nostalgic charm. **Would I return?** Sadly, probably not. While I loved the atmosphere and appreciated the employees, the chicken simply wasn't good enough to bring me back.
