This is the place to go. No matter when I visit or who I bring, everyone leaves talking about when they're coming back and what they're ordering next. I love this restaurant for so many reasons. 1. The vision. Candace has created something that truly stands out. Her concept feels fresh and intentional, and she's incredibly transparent and receptive to feedback, which is surprisingly rare these days. Her recommendations have never steered me wrong, and I honestly can't think of a single disappointing bite from her thoughtfully curated menu. 2. The food. Whether you're ordering a pizza, one of the seasonal pastas, or the meatballs, come hungry. Everything arrives fresh, hot, and surprisingly quickly. My personal favorites are the Cacio e Pepe Pizza and the Meatballs, but I've yet to try something I wouldn't order again. 3. The service. Every server I've had has been fantastic. The staff is consistently knowledgeable, warm, attentive, and efficient. They genuinely seem to enjoy what they do, and it makes the entire experience even better. 4. The atmosphere. The restaurant somehow manages to feel both cozy and elevated, like you're gathering in a friend's beautifully designed home. It's intimate enough for a date night but still works perfectly for larger groups. Trivia nights are especially fun--they really create a sense of community, and the host's enthusiasm makes the whole experience even more memorable. Without a doubt, I'll be back very soon. read more

Would recommend you enjoy any of the other pizza gourmet places in Sherman Oaks if you have a craving. This is a tremendous disappointment on service, food, and $ value. NOTE: This is one of a few So Cal locations. Same Ownership. So all the reviews might be for different locations. This pertains to the newer Sherman Oaks locale. This one does not live up to its other locations. This was our 3rd experience eating. There's always only ONE server for the entire one side of this restaurant. Which means of course longer wait times to getting anything - even getting a glass of water took 20 minutes. And this was in close to 100° weather. Each time we asked for something simple, we had to wait 10-20 minutes (and they neglected the things they should have included ...) when they brought out the pizza as our main course, they didn't clear are already empty salad plates, and didn't bother to bring clean ones, so we basically had to eat without clean plates. When we asked for fresh plates, our server said no problem, then immediately started taking orders at two other tables, there were no bus people around to ask for help, so we basically just went the whole meal without plates. And they never brought the ones we requested. When we were asked, "Would you like dessert?" The timing to get dessert menu was 15 MINUTES. For over $120 - this was the worst pizzeria experience we've had to date. NO PARKING options is another big problem - No Valet. No parking lot. You're on your own to find metered street parking and watch the time - you will get a ticket on Ventura. No side streets to park on at night - all permited. We hope more restaurants will care more if they charge these expensive prices - $120 for 2 people deserves far better experience and value. No one checked in on us during the mail to see if we were OK, the pizza arrived practically cold, jena stated did not have proper plates, when we need more napkins, there was no one around to ask, refills on water happened once in our two hours there, and the atmosphere is standard. Plenty of other Italian restaurants so far more flair, care, and quite honestly, better food for the value. Oh - and no coffee for your dessert. At an ITALIAN RESTAURANT. Yeah.. Highly recommend you use Yelp to find other pizzerias or Italian restaurants if you're craving and upscale, relaxed, enjoyable experience. Thank you. read more

I'd give Pizzana about a 4/5 overall. It was a good experience, the service was friendly, and the pizza itself was definitely the strongest part of the meal. We tried a couple of pizzas, and I thought both the tropical pizza and the meat pizza were really good. The crust, toppings, and overall flavor were solid, and those are the two I would personally recommend. The pizza is definitely above average, although I do think part of what you're paying for is the location. The drinks were the weakest part for me. We ordered two nonalcoholic drinks, and neither one was particularly impressive. For what they were, they also felt pretty overpriced, especially compared with the quality of the pizza. The restaurant itself has a nice, cozy atmosphere. It works well for a casual dinner or a relaxed date night, especially if you want somewhere that feels a little more polished without being overly formal. The location is also convenient and adds to the overall experience. Overall, I'd say the food is average to slightly above average, with the pizza being the clear highlight. The pricing is a little high for what you get, but the location and atmosphere explain some of that. I'd come back for the pizza, especially the tropical and meat options, but I'd probably skip the drinks next time. read more

We went to Pizzana in Brentwood for a very lovely Valentine's Day lunch and from the moment we walked in, it just felt right. We were seated immediately by the sweetest hostess and presented promptly with menus. No waiting, no confusion. Just easy and welcoming. They had a special Valentine's menu featuring heart-shaped pizzas, so of course I had to. It was giving festive but still chic. They were also running a special for their pasta of the month, Cacio e Pepe, and let me just say... this was the best I've ever had. Creamy. Cheesy. Perfectly coated handmade pasta with that ideal peppery bite. Not one complaint. I will most definitely return just for that dish alone. Now the pizza? Exactly how I like it. Mozzarella. Sauce. Thin crispy crust. And nothing less. No soggy middle, no overload of toppings. Just balanced, classic, and done right. Definitely worth the calories. I paired it with a mango margarita that hit just right and took a slice of red velvet to go because why not extend the joy? We really enjoyed our entire dining experience. It was a tiny bit noisy, but it's clearly super family friendly and almost every table had kids under five. It was the afternoon and honestly, when the pizza is that good, it makes sense that everyone wants to be there. Overall, such a sweet Valentine's lunch. Great food, great service, and we'll absolutely be back. read more

I've been wanting to try this restaurant for a while now but it's kinda far from me but when I realized it was on my home the other day I decided to stop by. I had just come from a birthday party so I wasn't too hungry, but let me tell you, that changed as soon as I tried the pizza. I ordered the Cacio E Pepperoni and it was delicious. The ingredients tasted very fresh and high quality. I also tried the Italian IPA which had a fruity aroma and flavor. I will definitely be coming back to try their other pizzas and the Cesare Salad. The service was also really good. The staff was friendly and attentive. read more

We love the pizza at Pizzana. It is always great. The place is always clean the service is wonderful. It is very pretty and we often eat there. This time we did take away. It was perfect. This is Daniele Uditi's place and is recommended by Michelin. This pizza is Naples type pizza, but they go out of their way to get great sourced toppings. The signature "slow dough" is meticulously prepared and allowed to ferment for two days. This gives a light crust but still sturdy enough to pick up with one hand. They have the best toppings. Don't let my photos fool you. My husband took of a bunch of my toppings and left me with just a few, which is best for me. They never skimp on toppings. You will just love it. Their pastas are also great and I usually get one when we dine there. The Creste alla Vodka, Pappardelle alla Bolognese and Spaghetti al Pomodoro are all great, it just depends on your mood at the moment. We also love their salads. The arugula salad with, spinach, shaved fennel, lemon zest, pine nut, parmigiano, lemon citronette is my favorite, but they also make a great chopped salad. And here, never miss dessert. They have their own pastry chef and all of it is good. My favorite is the three Panna Cottas with salted caramel sauce and caramelized pretzel and also their Torta al Limone which is the best lemon sponge cake, white chocolate frosting, candied lemon. It also can go home with ease. You really need to pick one. The place is just a happy place to be. read more

Yet another beautiful night of Pizanna. They got us hooked. Pizzeria sei s dough is slightly better but these pizzas definitely hit the spot in dough, flavor, and variety. Plus their one free pizza a month has got this as a fun date night spot to rotate into every month. Even the classic pepperoni is so good! Spinaci with garlic confit I s our favorite. The pasta s are good but not needed. The spaghetti pomodofo is actually the best and so addicting then the creste then the papardelle. The tiramisu is delicious! Second best tiramisu compared to pizzeria sei being number one tiramisu read more

10/10. Literally no notes. I have visited the Brentwood location and the MDR location too many times to count. Always hits it out of the park. My only tip though- I wouldn't recommend patio seating at the Brentwood location on a hot day because it does get uncomfortably warm after a while. But the INCREDIBLE food makes up for it. read more

Always perfection at Pizzana! First time at the Brentwood location, and another amazing meal. Came in for an early dinner and sat within 15 mins in their front patio area. Ordered our usuals - Aperol spritz and margarita, cauliflower, Diavola pizza, and finished with the tiramisu for dessert. Every bite was perfect and we were so full and happy after this meal. Service was great and so quick too. Until next time Pizzana! read more

I truly love their pizza and I always order from them and go there and everything but I'm gonna be honest that to go for the Caesar salad was extremely disappointing 1. The lettuce is so big u need to sit and chop it. I get that's the vibe but they also forgot to include UTENCILS ( I don't get how it's normal to forget utensils on a to go order) so I was legit eating giant lettuce in dipping sauce. 2. That little dressing thing is no way enough for the salad 3. My husband ended up buying more Parmesan cheese from super market , and I added it on because they honestly barely had any and it was just tiny flakes. 4. The croutons came very soggy... I feel like at the store. They're probably crunchy, but something about the process made it extremely soggy and soft I love Candace and I love their pizza but this salad to go needs to be improved !!! read more

I would give it a 0 if I could. we were told we could get a table in 15 minutes. 15 minutes passed and were told it would be 15 minutes again. then they said they were preparing our table. ultimately, they said they could not seat us. I don't care how good pizza is, awful service like this leaves a horrible taste in anyone's mouth. nothing worse than being over promised and under delivered. blonde hostess needs to learn how to set expectations reasonably. read more

Pizzana is one of my favorite recent finds for Italian food in LA and I'm already thinking about when I will be back! We made reservations and service was fantastic. Love the vibes of this restaurant and it had a chill, casual vibe especially for that area of LA. We kicked off dinner with some wine and the white cab was refreshing. We went in with the brussel sprouts salad which came with pistachios and slices of apple. So delicious. The star of the show must have been that fried cauliflower with a squeeze of lemon and their secret sauce. And I absolutely loved their pizza! We went with the carniovora and it was light, crispy and enjoyed how potent the tomato sauce was. I used to like Jon and Vinny's but I think Pizzana is at the top for me now. I will be back to try more pizzas and even give a pasta dish a try. read more

Great casual spot for pizzas. I enjoy checking out their seasonal options too. Always fun and a good time

Yummy! Came here for my bday dinner eith a couple of friends and totally reccomend! This place is def a bit on the pricier side, but def on the cheaper side if you are looking for a pasta/pizza place in west la. The ambiance was eating gg. Dim lights, candles, minimalistic decor. This place was so cutie and homey. My friends and I ordered 3 pizzas and 1 pasta and shared. We were a party pf 6, so I def think 3 pizzas and a pasta is a pretty sizeable amount for a filling meal. Our favorite pizza by far was the tre fungi. Im a big fan of mushrooms and cheese, so this pizza was literal heaven for me. Anyways will be coming back. Our server was actually the sweetest. She was cracking up jokes and was so accommodating when we were indecisive in trying to order. read more

I was looking for an alternative to EATaly pizza! And this was an amazing find!! We were able to come in without a reservation immediately! The service was great and fast. Parking is a little hard but we parked in a lot nearby. We got the Vodka and Diavola Pizza. Unfortunately, they were both pretty burnt at the crusts :( I looked around to see if it was normal and every other pizza around us had significantly less burn spots. The diavola pizza was a favorite and a one-of-a-kind! It seems like everyone usually orders one order per person. We ended taking some to-go! We would love to come again and try their other pizzas! read more

Guys I love Pizzana and I love to get it delivered via Postmates with their very frequent BOGO deals. It's genuinely so good and affordable with these deals. However, I feel like it should be known that at least for this location, the indoor seating is pretty small, and unfortunately when I asked about accommodating a group of 12 for a celebration, I learned that they required a $125 pp minimum for peak dining time (7 pm on a Saturday) for 2 hr timeframe in addition to tax and 20% gratuity. I was genuinely shocked at this number, given that 2-3 people can easily split 1 pizza and some apps and get a drink and still be far from this $125 number. I thought this was an upscale casual spot, but with these numbers I am not so sure. They also offered a 8:30 pm time for $75 per person, but given I could book a meal for 15 people at a similar location with no order minimum I really was surprised and disappointed. They also have a $25 pp cancellation policy (which I understood as if someone from your party can't make it last minute, you are charged $25 for each person absent) and they ask to hold your credit card for reservations of 5 of more to enforce this policy. Perhaps they have gotten burned in the past but given that we ended up spending over $500 for our group at an alternate location with almost identical cuisine, it seems like a missed opportunity for Pizzana to host groups. My guess is that they make these rules because they assume that in 2 hr with several smaller groups they'll make more money than 1 large group, but this is not always true. Friendly customer service with my inquiry but these rules did not work for us sadly, and I'd imagine it doesn't work for a lot of groups. read more

I absolutely loved the pizza and broccolini I had here! I came here with two friends and was able to get seated immediately at 8pm on a weekday - we did take the last table though so I'm sure it gets packed during rush hour times. We ordered the broccolini, margherita pizza, and diavola pizza. The mixture of whipped ricotta, honey, and chili oil with the broccolini was extremely and unexpectedly delicious. The margherita pizza was pretty good although the diavola was the standout pizza for me! The prosciutto and honey on the diavola pizza was an addicting sweet and salty combo. The dough on the pizza tasted so fresh as well. The pizzas are super thin though and need lots of support and love while consuming them. :) We also ordered Diet Coke for $4 a small cup. I was bothered at how little they gave, it was served in a small glass full of ice. There are no free refills, you have to pay another $4. I would've appreciated if they just gave me the can because the amount they give you probably equates to 1/4 of a can.. Pizzana would've been 5 stars for me if it wasn't for this upsetting situation ;( I will still be back for more of their tasty pizzas and broccolini. However will skip on the soda in future visits bc they charge too much for too little. read more

Fantastic pizza spot in Brentwood with excellent service!! Relatively busy on a weekday night but easy to get a reservation. Came with a group and our server was fantastic, so patient and helpful. There's a cool patio space that looks indoors but the top is open to the air and there are heaters for if it's chilly. The drinks list is great, there's also mocktails! Went for a seasonal drink called winter wine, which was a cab sav with fruity additions, basically a delicious sangria. There are many apps and salads to choose from and you can't go wrong. Loved the broccolini, which had bits of char that were super flavorful and the dollops of ricotta were a great addition. Every pizza was fantastic. There's also very well executed gluten free crust as an option! My favorite pizzas I tried were the Cacio E Pepe and the Funghi, both very savory and vegetarian friendly. The white sauce is savory without being too salty. They also have bottles of chili oil you can top your slices with! Absolutely loved this spot and would absolutely recommend! read more

Lovely experience at this pizza place, with incredibly attentive servers, a fun view of the kitchen staff through the glass barrier, and deliciously fresh food. Be aware that large parties May face a long wait time unless you make a reservation and parking can be tricky. We ordered three pizzas and two antipastas for a group of five and it was the perfect amount. The artichoke was out of this world: The meat of the artichoke on the bottom was creamy and had a sharp taste of lemon, which was a delicious contrast to the crispy leaves and aromatic pine nuts on top, but the intensity of garlic overall enticed me the most. The broccolini was slightly spicy, balanced by the smooth cream dollops and crisp melted parmesan. It was cooked perfectly with a tender bite. As for pizzas, the diavola was the showstopper for me because the spicy salami was well balanced with the sweet honey and toasted walnuts. The Neo Margherita championed the cheese and I loved the charcoal bits on the crust. read more

How did I just go here for the first time! It was very busy of course but we were seated after a nice walk around the block. The inside is super cute even if a bit cramped. The food came out incredibly quickly, which felt a bit like they wanted us out haha, but it was so good and affordable that I can look past that. The pepperoni pizza was so good and not greasy. The Cesar was cheesy and the croutons were fire. Star of the show was the vodka pasta for sure. Very nice! read more

This is some of my favorite pizza in all of LA, which is quickly (in my opinion) becoming a pizza city. So many great options all around! Pizzana stands out because the quality of all the ingredients is so high, the crust is perfectly fluffy and crisp, and their combinations of flavors are insane. The Cacio e Pepperoni is the pizza of my dreams! But I also love the Diavola for something spicy and the Neo Margherita is a sleeper pick that's definitely worth trying. The gluten-free dough is super good too! They recently updated it and it's actually better than ever. You really can't go wrong here. I've also gotten some of the veggies like the Broccolini and Cesare Salad and they're all good picks if you're looking to lighten up your meal a bit. The servers are also attentive and friendly, and the space itself is a nice spot for a little upscale dinner that's not too pretentious. read more
