Pepe's Pizza absolutely lives up to the hype -- a true gem for anyone who appreciates authentic, perfectly executed pizza. We tried a slice of meatball, a slice of veggie, and a slice of mushroom, and each one was outstanding in its own way. The meatball slice was rich and savory with perfectly seasoned, tender meatballs. The veggie slice was fresh, vibrant, and beautifully balanced, and the mushroom slice had an incredible earthy depth that really showcased the quality of the ingredients. The crust was crisp yet chewy with that classic char and flavor you can't fake. Exceptional pizza, friendly service, and a spot we'll definitely be returning to.

BBQ Chicken Pizza

I ordered the BBQ chicken pizza and it was so good. I love thin crust pizza and there was so much flavor. Very good quality pizza which I will definitely have again. The parking is a little tricky since the sushi place next door has valet parking and there was no street parking available. Inside the restaurant, it feels like a NY pizzeria with a few tables. The counter staff were nice and helpful.

Cheese pizza extra cheese and crispy
Itamar T.

I ordered their "special" on post mates buy one 12" and get one for free. For future reference they deliver and have better prices and coupons so call them direct. When I received the pizza I was happy to see that it was a nice thin crust. They cooked it crispy as I like and the fold was great. The crust tasted really good and overall the pizza taste was a fantastic balance of sauce and toppings. I did ask for extra cheese on the cheese pizza. I would say they did an okay job putting extra cheese but when I say extra cheese I mean over powering. The pizzas was still warm by the time it got to us and the toppings had settled in perfectly. This dough and crust were good and I usually like to see my toppings level higher than my crust. They were almost there. When the pizza arrived I was pleased to see their specials on the box as a flyer and I will gladly order directly from them rather than Postmates. Check out my pizza photos, so you can see it looked great.

Pepperoni and Mushroom slices.  Delicious.

A buddy got a couple of Pepe's big pies to-go. By the time I got to his place the pizza was cold, but it didn't matter because it tasted so darn good! Eventually I came in for a couple of slices and darn, if this pizza doesn't taste better when it's hot. The crust is not too thick, the sauce is loaded with flavor and the slices are not swimming in grease. I could eat a whole pie by myself. The shop is clean and comfortable and the service is friendly. They let me add Garlic powder, and Red Crushed Peppers before I left. Really good pizza at Pepe's. I'm heading over there right now for a slice!

Pasta and salad

Food is good. Great pizza. Great pasta too. Friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend it.

Good service and good pizza. It's a pretty clean restaurant. They also have outdoor sitting street parking available

Most of these places are fairly similar. I thought the pizza was good and at a good value. Nice people, nice place inside. Ordered to go. Was satisfied and would definitely come back. Fast enough for lunch if you order online

So today I finally made it over to Pepe's. Been wanting to check this place out for a long time. Being a New Yorker I was once again excited to find a good NY pizza spot in LA. But as soon as saw these uninspiring slices in the display case I knew this was going to be a tragedy. It's like this pizza was created by a 3D PRINTER. And it tastes like it. Please don't think this represents NY pizza. There are fine places here in LA that do it right this isn't one of them.

20" Sicilian Deep Dish Pizza- thickness
Tejal B.

In my search for the best NY style pizza & Sicilian pizza, I came across this place. The place is situated in the prime location of studio city LA. Metered Street Parking is available, which was difficult on a weekend to get. There is a private parking structure right besides their shop, we parked their & were done in 5 minutes as we had placed our order for pick up. Their were 2 guys working and no customer present. Its a cute little shop. They do have coupons on their site, so do use them. I used their coupon of with any 20" pizza get a 12" pizza with a topping free. We ordered their:- Sicilian pizza $23 - The pizza looked tempting & had a good thickness to it. Not buttery though like the "Brooklyn pizza wagon", the sauce was too strong, had to scrape it down. The cheese was weird while eating. It did not give that cheesy stretch, and had a hard bite to it. Cheese pizza with onions- It was thin unlike a NY style but was crisp, the cheese was overly browned. Overall a decent pizza place. Will try other places out.

super delicious! employee are super kind. I was looking for something good in the neighborhood and it was the perfect thing!

The box
Joey G.

Pepe's NY Pizza. $40 for a large double pepperoni with a small chopped salad delivered in 25 minutes. I thought I hadn't had this for years, but it turns out I did just last fall. Now I know why I had forgotten about it. Crust is good and holds a fold. Typical water crust, no real flavor with a good chew. The sauce is bland, it literally tastes like salt and peppered tomato sauce. Not bitter or sweet. Kinda right down the middle. Sadly the amount was more than enough to wet the dough, and create a slide for the cheese and toppings. See below. The cheese firmed up pretty quickly, and you can see in the pics it was delivered hot. By the time I sat down it had firmed up enough to rip all the toppings off on the first bite. I literally had a sheet of cheese and pepperoni hanging from my mouth on the first bite! This screams of frozen and thawed cheese with too much sauce. Though there wasn't enough sauce to make it soggy. Once again, the double pepperoni conundrum. Look at the pics and let me know if you think it was adequately pepp'd. Overall a meh pie that would probably taste great drunk! I'd say as good as pizza man, but there are much, much better pizzas for less.

Food was great! Service was even better! It's a hole-in-the-wall pizza joint, but the pasta is worth a stop too. Huge portions. Good value.

Not NY pizza. Small and very thin (stiff) slices. Closer to a flat bread than a pizza. Flavor was mediocre at best and I was starving.

We ordered everything on the menu as far as the sides catfish was flavored perfectly. The batter was incredible. The oil that was used was fresh and everything was clean, clean tasting. We ordered to jumbo shrimp with the macaroni and hush puppies. We also got the potato salad and the greens. Wonderful wonderful wonderful.

Earlier the woman, who seemed like she wasn't having that great of a day either, helping us commented about having to keep walking things over to our table. When we finished eating, all the tables were full and I had just watched a group of four walk in and leave, so I genuinely thought I was helping by bringing our dishes to the counter and freeing up the table. She told me to leave them at the table, I apologized, and did exactly that. What bothered me was that while I was waiting to pay, she looked at me, pointed at the counter and said, "No... SUCIO dishes on counter," with a smirk. I had already understood her perfectly and responded in English. English is my first language and Spanish is my second. As a Mexican woman, the way she emphasized "sucio" felt incredibly condescending and racially insensitive. That being said, the food was SO flavorful, and the cook even came out to check on us, which I really appreciated. You never know what someone is going through and a little kindness and basic respect go a long way. Sadly, I wouldn't come back to dine in after this interaction, but I would still order the food for delivery.

We ordered a decent amount to give it a fair shot: Caesar Salad: Pretty basic. Dressing tasted almost store-bought. It was fine, but nothing I'd order again. Pepperoni Calzone: Loved that they don't cut it, it stayed super hot, and the marinara came hot too. Hubby said the flavor was really good, BUT there was just way too much dough. The filling didn't go end-to-end, so you're left 1/3 of the entire calzone more like a loaf of bread. Not a ton of toppings inside, pepperoni or cheese, for the size. Pepperoni Pizza: Came out piping hot and had good flavor, but again, the crust was a little too chewy for us. Did appreciate the generous amount of pepperoni on top. Margherita Pizza: GARLIC! Definitely not shy with it. Big tomato slices and huge basil leaves. The outer crust was actually cooked perfectly, but the center was almost undercooked and definitely not crispy. For a $100 takeout order, I was hoping to be a little more impressed. Nothing was terrible, and there were definitely some good flavors, but overall it just didn't quite hit. That said, I think there's potential here, so we'll give them another shot. Maybe next time will bump them up a star!

Walked in today at 6:45pm and got a somewhat nice greeting from Fabriscio. He was running around like a chicken w/out a head. Taking orders, phone was ringing off the hook, pick up orders while the other employees Shirley and another guy were making the food in their tiny kitchen. I understand it's not easy to work under pressure. The three of them somehow managed. Food is very expensive for the portions that you get. Inside and outside was very clean except one table that remained dirty during the entire time that I was there. You place your order at the so-called counter, and since there is nowhere to sit inside, you either go to the sports bar next door, or sit outside. There was a game going on. People were very drunk and you could hear them cheering for their favorite team from 2 miles away. Food was OK, nothing to die for or write home about. They do have a lot of things to choose from on their menu. I got their 5 piece BBQ ribs, (two sauces on the side along with pickles and pickled onions). Pickled onions was very delicious. Also, ordered a whole BBQ chicken with three sides. Chicken was cut into pieces. The sides were medium size coleslaw, baked beans and the Elote street corn. Now, the corn stole the show. It was some of the best corn that I've had in a very long time. Food was also salty. Food came out quick, but was lukewarm and dry. They also have a fridge full of water, pudding, and soda. I asked for a dinner roll or corn bread, and he said "all we have now is sliced white bread". I said "fine" in my mind I was thinking "what kind of BBQ place doesn't have dinner roll or corn bread?" They had no plates, only trays. He snapped at me at one point by saying that "we are so busy", when I asked for plates. So, I got a tray. It was so hot inside, no A/C, a lot of to-go orders and 3rd party. Nobody came to check on me while I ate. I even had to go get my own to-go boxes, lids and a bag from Shirley. Don't know about the restroom situation. I didn't see any. They have street parking and parking in the back that's shared with the sports bar next door. One last important thing. TONY ROMA'S WHERE ARE YOU??

I arrived about 30 minutes after they opened, and my food was hot, fresh, and ready in about 7-10 minutes. While I was eating and watching the World Cup matches, Marion, one of the owners, came over and struck up a conversation. We talked about the different Hot Wings Café locations, and since I live closer to the Sherman Oaks location, he let me know that another family member runs that restaurant. I love supporting true family-owned businesses, and you can genuinely feel that family atmosphere here. Even during the lunchtime rush, there was a steady stream of customers coming in and orders going out, but the staff never seemed overwhelmed. It was easy to tell they have a loyal group of regulars. The young woman working alongside Marion was just as friendly, cheerful, and gracious, whether she was helping customers at the counter or taking phone orders. It's becoming harder and harder to find this level of genuine hospitality, especially at family-owned restaurants. They made everyone who walked through the door feel welcome, and that kind of customer service is something I truly appreciate. I'll definitely be visiting the Sherman Oaks location closer to home, but this Melrose location made a fantastic first impression. Great food, outstanding service, and genuinely kind people. I'll absolutely be back.

Yesterday I was nearby so I decided to treat myself. I ordered an 8-piece combo with 4 Mango Habanero wings, 4 plain wings and fries. I paid extra for vegetables and ordered a fountain drink. Unfortunately, this visit was completely different. The food came out lukewarm, almost cold. The fries were soggy, the wings were very small, dry, and overcooked the little amount of meat next to the bone was black. The Mango Habanero barely had enough sauce to even notice the flavor. What made it more disappointing was the price. I paid almost $27 for food that tasted like it had been sitting out and reheated instead of being cooked fresh to order. Meanwhile, I'd highly recommend New York Chopped Cheese & Lets Wing It in Mid City on Venice and Redondo instead. Their wings are bigger, more flavorful and the fries are actually seasoned. During lunch hours you can get wings, fries, vegetables, and a drink for $13 including tax. I really wanted Hot Wings Cafe to be consistent maybe I needed to dine in cause they have to be on their toes when you are in their face. The waitress we had went dining in was outstanding and the food was actually good then but after this experience, I will never order to go.
