This is my 3rd time here and one of my absolute favorite pizza spots. There's a reason they rank top 2 in the USA... it's honestly well deserved!! The place is small so if you want to do a walk in be prepared to wait, but the wait is honestly so random. One time I got in 25 minutes later and next time 45 minutes. First time, I got takeout and was honestly disappointed. The pizza got cold during the 12 minute walk back to my apartment and it just didn't hit the same because it wasn't fresh. Second time, we did a walk-in on a Sunday and somehow got really lucky. Waited about 20 minutes at a nearby coffee shop because of cancellations. We got the Margherita special and Ruti's pizza, and both were out of this world. Especially the Margherita special... this is hands down my favorite pizza i've tried in LA. I tend to gravitate toward classic flavors and they did everything right with this one. The crust alone... probably the best Neapolitan dough I've had in my life. It's pillowy, soft, slightly chewy, and just has that perfect structure. Only thing to note is their pizzas are VERY floppy. Like... really floppy. So if that's not your thing, you might not love it as much. Ruti's pizza is a white base with soppressata, fresh arugula, and hot honey. The sweet and spicy combo worked really well, super balanced and not overwhelming. We also got the tricolor salad which was a great starter. Very fresh, bright, and tangy from the lemon dressing. It cuts through the heaviness of the pizza perfectly. Third time, we did another walk-in on a Saturday around 2:30 PM and got seated within 30 minutes. At this point I'm convinced I just have good luck with the wait times!! We ordered the mala lamb sausage, diavola, bianca, and tiramisu. My favorite this time was the bianca. It was lighter and acted as a really nice palate cleanser between the heavier pizzas. You can actually taste the lemon in it, which surprisingly I loved on pizza. Only thing is you have to eat it fast because once it cools down, the cheese solidifies pretty quickly. The mala lamb sausage is definitely a crowd favorite, but not my personal favorite.... It leans heavier and the lamb flavor comes through pretty strong. If you like bold flavors you'll probably love it, but I personally prefer something more classic and clean like the margherita or the bianca. The diavola was solid. The soppressata brought the right amount of spice and everything felt really balanced. And the tiramisu... I will always get this if I have room for dessert. It's a good portion size!! The three of us shared it after already eating three pizzas (and still had 3 slices leftover) and we were completely stuffed. I would come back again for the Margherita special and the tiramisu alone. read more

GREAT PIZZA The DH drove over the meadow and through the woods for takeout. It was worth the trip. I tried diavolo, marinara and margherita. Diavolo had a little kick but nothing an Angelino can't handle. Though I normally get margherita, I wanted to compare with marinara. Both were great. They also provided anchovies on the side for the Cesar salad. https://www.50toppizza.it/referenza/pizzeria-sei-3/ read more

I liked it. Finally got around to trying this place. Small interior inside with limited seating. Wouldn't go with more than 2 people. Probably better as a to go option. The pizzas are good though. We got the mala lamb sausage and patate. Loved the flavor of the lamb sausage. And I loved getting a bite of the potato and ricotta cheese. The middle of the pizza is quite soggy though. You can't really hold a slice with one hand even if you fold it. So you'll need a fork. Would definitely come back to try more. Service was good. Friendly staff. We went on a Friday night and there was a 30min wait, which wasn't too bad since there's a bar right next to it. Street meter parking up and down the block. read more

This is a really popular Japanese pizza spot in Los Angeles, and I remember LOVING Japanese pizza when I visited Japan. I love that they also have really authentic Japanese-style pizza in LA because now whenever I crave it, I can just visit Pizzeria Sei! Their pizzas come out really quickly, so if you want to order take out, it'll probably only take half an hour for all of the pizza to bake. We got a few different types, and everything was genuinely so delicious. Note that there are only a few slices (I think around 6), so you may have to buy more than you expect (compared to American pizza sizes). read more

Ordered takeout on a Friday afternoon, and the pizza was ready quick and fresh. We ordered Margherita, Special Margherita with Bufala, and Diavola. Loved the chewy texture of the dough and the generous amount of cheese and meat! I would recommend Special Margherita over the regular since the buffalo cheese has a richer, creamier taste. The Diavola is great if you're craving a bit of spicy meat, and they really cover the whole top of the pizza with meat. read more

Want the best pizza you have ever had? Come here. Voted #2 in the US and #9 in the world in 2025 by "Top 50" ratings. I am a Neapolitan pizza snob - this is insanely good pizza - absolutely worth a special trip. "Yea, but is it worth driving in an hour of LA traffic for?". 100%. Had the charcuterie appetizer (ate half before I took the photo). Amazing. Then had 2 Diavolo pizzas. Incredible. read more

Pizzeria Sei is definitely a must try in west LA for its Tokyo-style pizza with its delicate mochi-like dough which is soft and thin yet has a light crunch on the crust. My first visit was in August'25 where the mala lamb sausage pizza on their special menu blew me away. Flavor, texture, novelty, and presentation were 10/10! Also loved the small interior with the narrow hallway and bar seating to watch your pizza get freshly delivered from the wood fired oven. The vibe :) Had been craving this since, and finally went back this month for the patate pizza - creamy but not too heavy, topped with golden chewy potatoes & ricotta - and the diavola pizza - for that classic tomato base with a spicy kick from the soppressata & chili flakes. Michelin-recommended is highly deserved! Street parking. There is typically an hour-long wait minimum during the lunch rush, so expect to write your name down and wait elsewhere until they text you as there is not much shade when waiting outside! Ordered takeout online and ate at a nearby park for my second visit which went smoothly and tasted just as amazing. read more

Not worth it. Was told it was amazing, but the for the price, it wasn't. You have to pay extra for additional toppings that are on most pizzas elsewhere already.... Overall nothing really special. Better pizza places out there that are worth the money. It's also hard to get a seat inside because it's so small inside and limited. Otherwise, you'll need to order to-go. read more

I've been trying to get into Pizzeria Sei for over a year and somehow never made it work. Finally went Sunday night at 9pm and it ended up being the ideal time. No traffic, easy parking, and the whole place felt relaxed instead of packed. We started with the burrata. Simple, fresh, and done right. A good start without trying too hard. The Special Margherita with bufala was solid, just the most expected of the pizzas. The cheese gave it a little more depth, but compared to the others, it didn't stand out. The Diavola definitely brings heat. Not mild at all. It's like a spicy pepperoni but more intense and lingers a bit. The Bianca was a surprise. It had this light lemon and ricotta flavor that almost felt like a savory dessert, but in a good way. That one was probably my second favorite. The Patate was easily the best thing we ordered. Rich, filling, and full of flavor. It reminded me of a really elevated scalloped potato, but on top of a perfect crust. After waiting that long, it was actually worth it. I'd go back just for the Patate. read more

Parking is a little tough. All street parking with meters. Sat at the bar, which ended up being a great spot to watch everything coming out of the kitchen. The place has a clean, minimal feel but still feels warm and welcoming. Ordered the Bismarck and the Diavola, plus an orange San Pellegrino Aranciata. The Bismarck was incredible. The crust had that perfect balance of light, airy, and slightly crisp, and once the egg mixed into everything it just brought the whole pizza together. Simple ingredients but really well executed. The Diavola had a great kick to it. The spice from the salami paired perfectly with the cheese and sauce, and the crust again was outstanding. You can tell a lot of care goes into the dough here. Sitting at the bar made the experience even better, and the staff was friendly and attentive the whole time. Everything came out fresh and hot. Easily one of the better pizza experiences I've had and definitely worth coming back for. read more

Pizza was good, but the service from the host was disappointing--even after tipping. First, we weren't allowed to add extra toppings because the host said the pizza already came with meat. Second, we were quoted a two-hour wait for a party of five, but when we checked back after 40 minutes, the restaurant was half empty with plenty of available seating. Lastly, when we came back after their 40 minute estimate, he told us to wait just a few additional minutes... but then told us we couldn't wait inside even if it wasn't that crowded. We all agreed that the host was rude, and could improve with how to speak more politely. read more

Decent spot for Neopolitan style pizza in LA! We had a reservation for 4 people that I fought to get exactly on the dot when reservations opened up, so it was a little frustrating when we arrived that they did not have a table ready for us. We were able to sit at the bar, which became available first, but this was not our preference. Eventually a table opened up and they stated we could move to it, but I just thought this was a little inefficient for a place that takes reservations. The caesar salad had too much dressing on it. You can get it without anchovies, so we ordered them on the side. I do think it needed a more acidic flavor profile to it. All the pizzas were a little bit oily and dripping. The very first bite of the pizzas was the best. But as it got colder, the quality and taste wasn't nearly as good as it was when it was fresh a couple minutes ago. The Patate pizza was a little too salty for me, but I did appreciate the bite when I drizzled truffle oil (ordered separately) on top. I wouldn't opt for this one next time. We also ordered the Bianca, which I was worried would be too similar in flavor to the Patate. But the flavors were distinct, likely due to the lemon flavor on the Bianca. This was so interesting and I really enjoyed it - this was my favorite and I would definitely order the Bianca again! We also ordered the Margherita which wasn't bad. It's probably recommended to eat this type of pizza with a fork and knife, but my whole party used our hands (as I'm sure others do too). So my gripe is that the middle of the pizza is too soggy and it flops when you're holding it. I have had Neopolitan pizza elsewhere that is sturdy enough to hold and eat it with your hands. Parking was quite difficult and we parked several blocks away. There is a bathroom. read more

Really enjoyed the pizzas we got. This restaurant is TINY so definitely try to get a reservation (I don't even know if they do walk ins). Unfortunately, it was one of the reservations I did have to stalk the release time for, but I thought it was worth the effort. We sat at the pizza counter area which was nice. I always enjoy watching people make pizza. Ordered: - Margarita Special - I always love a margarita pizza - Mala Lamb Sausage - This was also good and unique from other pizzas we had. I would order this again, but I wouldn't order it again if it was my only pizza. I did get tired of the flavor at the end so it was nice to have another pizza to change up the flavor a little bit. - Funghi Crostini - Would recommend if you like you're a fan of mushroom. - Tiramisu read more

So incredibly delicious! After eating pizza here, I finally understand what real pizza is supposed to taste like. Everything I had before was just glorified American flatbread. The restaurant is clean, the service is fast, and the owner is super friendly and even came by to check if we were enjoying ourselves. One thing to note: reservations are strongly recommended since it gets so busy that walk-ins often can't get a table. P.S. The Margherita special we ordered was so good I found myself thinking about it for three days afterward. read more

Read about the long lines and crazy wait, so we planned to come mid-afternoon. Arrived around 3-3:30pm on Sunday and luckily caught a lull where there were still a couple open tables left. We sat outside on the street -- pretty barebones setup and not the most comfortable since you're just breathing in car exhaust, but waiting for a table inside would've been an hour. Within 20 minutes of sitting down, a line going out the door had already formed. If you're looking to avoid a wait, come around 2-3pm! We ordered the margherita and the funghi. The margherita was pretty solid: bubbly crust with good char and a good ratio of mozzarella to tomato sauce. The tomato sauce wasn't anything special, but at least had the tanginess that lesser pizzas lack. Undercarriage was wonderfully thin and mostly held up against the toppings, although it was a tad too soggy even for a Neopolitan-style pie. The funghi was visually very appealing and shroomy. I wish they used varieties other than just boring crimini, but at least they weren't skimpy with the amount of mushrooms. Roasted garlic chunks added a nice kick. Unfortunately, the pie was too salty. Tried out the tiramisu for dessert, and it was also just pretty standard fare. Pies took about 20min to come out, so not too long for freshly-made pizza. For all its accolades, I'd put Pizzeria Sei in just the "pretty good" category. Nothing blew me away, but I'd come back for more. read more

**** 50 Top Pizza World (2025): #9 **** *** 50 Top Pizza USA (2025): #2 *** ** Michelin Plate ** * Los Angeles Times 101 Best Restaurants (2025): #36 * Ranked by the Italy-based Top 50 Pizza organization as the #9 best pizza in the world, and #2 best in the United States, Pizzeria Sei was a restaurant I was very excited to visit. Given their reputation, and the fact that they only have ~18 seats, reservations are unfortunately hard to come by. I had been monitoring their reservation website for a long time and finally got lucky in securing a table for 4 people this past Sunday at 4pm. To eat, we ordered the Mala Lamb Sausage ($29), Napoletana ($25), and two Margherita Special ($26). While each was delicious, if I had to choose a favorite, it would probably be the Napoletana. The olives, garlic, and capers were excellent, and I loved how much sauce was on it. The pizza dough taste and texture was phenomenal across everything we ordered. I'm not sure I've had a more enjoyable pizza before. If looking for top notch pizza in Los Angeles, I don't think you can do better than Pizzeria Sei. It really does live up to the hype. Food aside, service is friendly, fast, and efficient. The ambiance really isn't much, but it's nice enough. The price point is relatively affordable and the portions are satisfying. I would love the opportunity to dine at Pizzeria Sei again. I just wish reservations were a little easier to secure. read more

I'll be honest, it didn't wow me. I was under the impression it would make me realize every pizza I had before can't compare. All I can say is, it's fresh. I don't know if they underseasoned the pizza the day I went, but I thought it was lacking flavor. I generally can tell when simplicity of ingredients speaks loudly through quality, but I thought the olive oil tasted normal. The dough has a good thin bite to it, nothing out of the ordinary. Marinara sauce is honestly a bit bland (it taste like water, I was expecting a rich umami slightly sweet slightly acidic flavor), I thought it was greenhouse grown tomatoes. The only thing I smelled in there that got my attention was the mala lamb pizza. Every other pizza didn't get my attention. The funghi pizza is just raw sliced baby bella. I was expecting a deep mushroom taste, but the enormous amount of mushrooms gave it a palate of undercooked bland fungi. I only tasted the garlic confit. The slightly raw mushroom field overshadowed everything else, I barely tasted the cheese. I'm not sure what's going on here, but a lot of people liked it. Maybe I just got a bad one? There wasn't much olive oil on the mushrooms to bring out the flavor. 2.5/5 The diavola gave me a better impression of this place, but I was still chasing for more. For some reason even with the basil and olives, I mainly tasted chili flakes. Again there wasn't really an aroma of what I'd expect from high quality olive oil/basil/marinara. The soppressata and the chili flakes were definitely singing the tunes here. 3.8/5 Very popular and busy. Location is small so it seems more exclusive. You get to watch the whole show up front at the counter. Sat down 10 minutes before my reservation and got seated immediately, service is quite good here. Would I come back to try other pizza? Yes. Would I recommend this as one of the best in LA? Probably not. read more

Amazing pizza, very fresh. Crust is nice and crispy. Service is quick and everyone there is nice. Would definitely recommend to go. In terms of the pizzas, the ham one wasn't as good, it was a little too cheesy for me. The other ones were good though! The servers know the pizza by looking too, and immediately identified the pizzas I wanted to eat. The pizzas are all made fresh (or so it seems) so it's definitely worth to go in person. read more

A friend snagged a reservation which is how I finally ended up at Pizzeria Sei. It was on a Thursday night for 9PM but what mattered most, I finally got to try the pizza and salad I've been hearing about for a while now. I'll start with parking. If you haven't been to the Pico area, know it can be challenging. There's street parking and a few public lots (just follow the signs). I managed to snag a space in the public lot across the street, but behind the building. Know though, that it's a pay meter where you enter what space you parked in. However, you can't see the space numbers thanks to the awesome job by the City of LA and the wonderful job they're doing but still making sure to charge. Anyway, I paid it and just picked a random number - after all, I did enter my license plate as something to reference. Walking in, the space is cramped and really doesn't have any ambiance. It's like empty room with limited seating. A counter and a few tables. Definitely not a spot for large groups. But, I do like the open kitchen concept where you can watch how and where the magic happens. Unfortunately, I was seated at one of the tables so I only got a glance when going to the restroom. The service was good. The size of the space makes it easy in my opinion as everyone is someone's line of sight. I enjoyed how the staff handled my extra - to go order making sure the timing of dropping the order wouldn't leave me with a cold pie when I got home. Friendly and attentive. On to the reason I was there. The pizza ... well, ordered a Caesar salad too as well as a Tiramisu but the pizzas: Bianca and Margherita. I enjoyed both, favoring the Bianca as I liked the lemon hits so if you don't, you may want to avoid. I did like the Margherita - simple and tasty, not overpowered by basil or drenched in olive oil. The dough on both were nicely blistered leaving a crispy edge with the chewy center. Balanced so the pies weren't too saucy and served fresh and hot. Glad I finally got try Pizzeria Sei after all the hype. While the dining space isn't much to talk about and the parking situation (all of LA), the pizzas are what mattered most. Good service and the pies that were fresh, nice dough and good flavor - it was worth the wait to experience it even one time. Just not sure if it's on my "regular go to" list of spots. read more

Came back for another pick up order. The restaurant was packed for dining in. They have very limited seating. This time the funghi crust was a bit burnt on the bottom, which I didn't enjoy. The toppings are the perfect combo though. The bianca was delicious, light, and lemony. It was something I'd want to eat on a pasta. The crust is soft and chewy and mochi. Parking is very difficult as it's limited and on a busy street. read more

We went there because of the hype and I think it was worth it! Food: 5/5 The dough was exactly what you'd expect. Had a decent amount of bite, and was chewy in a good way. The pizzas all had distinct flavors. The mushroom one in particular made up for the lack of meat with garlic. Service: 5/5 We ordered to go and ate in our cars. Due to the few reservations they take, this is apparently the move. The decor seemed fine though. read more

It's hard to be blown away going to an award winning restaurant. Yet, I was blown away. I've had the fortune of traveling all over Italy trying pizza. I'd say this is squarely in the top 3 best pizzas I've ever had. And top 1-2 Caesar salads I've ever had as well! That I was truly shocked about. My rec: Margherita speciale and a Caesar salad. The special Margherita has a more delicate cheese that blends better with everything making nothing stick out. Heavenly. Thanks pizza sei, absolutely the best. Oh and shout out to a couple cool hosts for awesome service. See you again soon. read more

Very good but not life changing! The Japanese Neapolitan pizza style is the lightest, fluffiest crust I've ever had -- an experience that can't be replicated without an extremely high temperature oven. Funghi was fresh and light, whereas the mala lamb sausage was deeply nostalgic, juicy, and flavorful. The latter has my recommendation because it's a flavor profile you can't find on any other pizza. We waited 45 minutes as a walk-in for a party of 4 on a Monday during Christmas week, but I imagine this number is astronomically higher when all of the transplants are not out of town. Service is honestly kind of slow even though the pizzas themselves take around 2 minutes in the oven, so I'm a little confused? They stopped doing takeout by 6:15 and sold out of walk-ins by 7:30, and they were out of tiramisu by 6:30. Try to snag a reservation on Resy (the frequency at which reservations open is somewhere on their website) because it's a lot less painful than waiting in line. Parking is free after 6 though. I would come once for the experience but I don't know if I would do it again. I also really enjoyed Bon Appetit's video on their pizza omakase and I think it gave me a lot of insight to their preparation, and it's so uniquely LA how a Korean chef serves Japanese Neapolitan pizza in his own style! read more

I don't get the hype of this place... I managed to get reservations on Resy a few weeks prior, and they let us sit a few minutes earlier which was good (and why I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1) but the restaurant is TINY and feels super cramped... we had 3 peeps and they literally added a chair to a table for 2 so I felt like there was not enough table space. It feels chaotic in there with servers dropping cups and stuff all around and service just seemed kind of rude with an attitude.... We started with the giardinera which is a small owl filled with veggies in olive oil & vinegar - lots of onions, olives, carrots etc... and it came with some hard, toasted small bread slices... it was good but nothing amazing.... For pizza, we ordered the funghi, Bianca and marinara...I think the marinara was the best and most unique with lots of tomato sauce and garlic but for some reason didn't come out for a LONG time.... It would've been nice to enjoy it with the other white sauced pizzas...which were good but nothing special or to rave about.... We were almost done with the funghi and Bianca so I asked where the marinara was and the server said she had to check.... Then came back to say it was waiting in queue to be put in the oven.... Maybe they forgot...so odd... I don't think I'll be coming back... read more

An acclaimed pizzeria not just nationally, but globally, Pizzeria Sei is definitely worth a visit and easily one of my top spots for pizza in LA! The shop is small with limited seating, so would recommend making a reservation if planning to dine in. You can also order ahead of time on their website, but right now they're limiting online orders to 4 pizzas per order. If you get pizza to-go, their pizza is best enjoyed fresh so be prepared dig in shortly afterwards! I've loved all the flavors I've tried, and they're incredibly fresh and delicious straight out of the oven. The dough is truly chef's kiss - thin with a light and perfectly chewy crust with crispy edges. - Margherita - a classic pizza flavor and simply delicious and so fresh - Bianca - a white pizza with a creamy lemon flavor - so delightful and tasty! - Funghi - as a mushroom lover this one is simply amazing. It's topped generously with shaved mushrooms as well as roasted garlic - Patate - I don't often have potato on pizza but this one is so cheesy, creamy, and garlicky for a yummy combination - Mala lamb sausage - (not available to order online on their website) never imagined seeing mala lamb on a pizza and was surprised how good it tasted!! - Bismarck - this one was unique as well. A combination of prosciutto cotto (cooked ham), egg, and Moliterno al Tartufo (a rich buttery truffle cheese) read more

**MY FAVORITE LA PIZZERIA** PARKING Metered street parking, two-hour limit. Plan accordingly. AMBIANCE Bare-bones, a little stale, and tight. About 12-ish counter seats total, but you get a clear view of the pizza-making, which is the only thing that matters here. FOOD Margherita - $24 Classic build: San Marzano tomatoes, fior di latte, basil, EVOO, sea salt. I wanted more crunch with that chewy pull. It skewed soft, which knocks it down a notch, but the dough quality is undeniable. Rating: 4/5 Tiramisu - $10 The real deal. Creamy, coffee-soaked lady fingers, not cloying, no nonsense. Exactly how tiramisu should be. Rating: 5/5 OVERALL No hype, no gimmicks. Just straightforward, well-executed pizza. Still my favorite LA pizzeria so far. I'll be back. read more

What a great different pizza! Don't come here having an expectation of what a pizza is like, ok? There are some poor reviews of people complaining about the pizza because it's too thin? Hello? Have these reviewers done their homework? Their research on what Pizzeria Sei is all about? Don't have time to research? I'll tell you! The crust is thin and delicate but strong enough to hold the sauce and ingredients that are sooooo fresh, it's like the tomatoes they've used for their sauce was raised with love. The mozzarella was so flavorful and buttery, is that normal? The mushroom pizza? Someone had the audacity to say it was too mushroom-y. ‍ I guess some people can't handle FLAVOR. The ingredients are fresh, people! Enjoy them while you can! I would LOVE to come by on a Tuesday when they have their pizza omakase. The tiramisu was light and perfect and I washed the pizza down with their yuzu cocktail, a great pairing with unctuous umami rich pizza. The seating is minimal and close but for good pizza and good company it's worth it. read more

I had tried multiple times to get a reservation and had no luck, so we decided to give the walk in a try. To our surprise, we were able to be seated immediately, which worked out wonderfully. Granted we were there before 5, so based on arrivals while we were eating, if we had come much later it would not have worked as well. The place is stark, lots of white and maybe 5 tables inside, one or two outside and the bar, where you can watch the masters work the impressive pizza oven. We opted for a table inside. The staff is all friendly and great with suggestions. Based on a few reviews we opted for the Tri Colore Salad to start. It was fine, but nothing to write home about. But obviously that is not why you're here. And to be clear, this is Tokyo Style Neapolitan Pizza, which means hyper localized ingredients and a few twists on a traditional Neapolitan pie. We chose the Mala Lamb Sausage Pizza, which is enough for two to share if you are not overly hungry and if you do not want leftovers. It comes with: lamb sausage, Kendall Farms creme fraiche, red bell pepper, smoked provola, cilantro flowers (all that green you see), shaved shallot, tomato pulp, pecorino romano, black pepper, EVOO, lemon and XXHEAT mala spiced chili. At $29 it is pricey for a smallish pie, but that, sadly, is the new norm. But... the pie was utterly phenomenal! It takes a few bites to be able to hold it up and eat it with your hands, but every single bite is a flavor bomb. Wow. It works on every level... and in fact, it is like two meals in one, each delectable. The toppings could easily be a meal on their own... so tasty... and the pie/dough is cooked to perfection. Fluffy, flavorful and would stand up to the APN with flying colors. With tax and tip, one salad and one pie came out to be about $57. That's the only downside (well, that and getting in though we were lucky), which will make this pizza place more of a special occasion. Does it deserve the hype and world ranking? Yes, it does... and it costs so much to run a restaurant these days, so I get it. Will I be dreaming of that pie and wanting to come back to try the Ruti's Pizza which the couple next to us was raving about and looked so good? Yes, I will. I am! read more

Top ranked pizza place for a reason. One of the best I had. Fresh, umami flavor of the tomato and balanced and packed with flavor. Mala lamb on the special menu was also delicious, the flavors reminds me of kebab. Reserve seating if you can. Otherwise be prepared to wait. We got to go because of the wait. Tiramisu is also top notch. read more

Finally had a chance to try Pizzeria Sei. Reservations are hard to come by, even on the weekdays! The place is small and there were only a few tables and a couple of counter seats. I had to settle for a 9PM reservation which Im glad I did! Absolutely loved the dough on the pizzas. It was airy and chewy yet full of flavor. I highly recommend the Bismarck, the runny egg yolk just complements the flavors of the prosciutto and Parmesan so well. It was essentially eating a carbonara in pizza form. read more

Looking for the best pizza in LA? I think I found it! The spot is almost hidden, surrounded by shops and businesses along a busy street that feels like a small town's downtown. We arrived around 7 pm on a Wednesday and had no trouble finding free street parking. The restaurant itself is very small, with limited bar seating and just a few tables inside. We were lucky to get an outdoor table for two after a 15-20 minute wait, though several other parties were also waiting. One downside is that alcohol isn't allowed at the outdoor tables, so I'd recommend making a reservation to sit indoors or opting for takeout. Thankfully, there's a taproom next door, which made the wait more enjoyable. We ordered the Diavola and the Mala Lamb Sausage pizzas, and both were delicious! The ingredients tasted fresh and well-balanced, and the pizzas were baked to perfection. The crust was crisp on the bottom and the dough wasn't overly bready. The diavola had a rich, flavorful red sauce, while the mala lamb sausage was unlike anything I've had before. I never expected a Chinese fusion pizza to work so well! It tasted like Chinese skewers in pizza form, with a light mala drizzle that added flavor without being overwhelming numbing. It was heavier and oilier than the diavola, but easily the most unique. Overall, we loved the experience, and I'd go back to LA just to eat this pizza again. I didn't realize until afterward that it's recognized both locally and nationally, but it absolutely deserves the hype. I can't wait to come back and finally try their infamous tiramisu! read more

Was so excited to try this place but unfortunately left disappointed in all 3 pizzas we ordered. We got the patate, margherita, and ruti's. Not sure if it was just the tomato sauce base, but the marg and ruti's were both so salty, it made the patate bland in comparison. The crust was nice though, but was just expecting more from such a hyped pizzeria. If you're driving to LA/BH just for this, think again read more

Pizzeria Sei is easily one of my favorite pizza spots in LA. Their Neapolitan pizza is fantastic. It has a perfectly blistered crust, light, chewy, and full of flavor. My personal favorite is the potato pizza, which sounds simple but is incredibly good. The potatoes get slightly crispy on the edges and pair perfectly with the creamy cheese and airy crust. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients. Definitely lives up to the hype and a spot I'm always happy to come back to. read more

Pizzeria Sei - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Pretty amazing!! The potato pizza, and the mushroom.... BAM! Margherita was also great, Ruti's as well. Seating can take time, try to go on less popular dining hours. Great to sit at the bar and watch the folks do their thing. They are in great rythem pump out pies like no other. I just tried Wierdough in Burbank, and thought...geez, this is pretty hyped. Pizza is likely one of the highest profit foods, so if you're paying close to $30 per pie and that thing is personal size, it better HIT!! See my review on other pizza spots. After Covaid and the way 786 in Sun Valley reacted, we have not gone back, but that was good as well. Dough Drop was a joke, and maybe with some humility they have improved? (IDK, hopeful guess?). Plenty other great spots. But if you want the flavor of REAL INGREDIENTS....this is one of my top 5. read more

Guys, believe the hype: Pizzeria Sei is the real deal. It's ranked as #2 in the US and #44 in the world pizza. We ordered RUTI'S PIZZA, MALA LAMB SAUSAGE, and tiramisu. That crust is the perfect fluffy-yet-chewy balance, and you can taste the quality in every bite. The place is tiny and not easy to find a reservation. But, their takeout opening is easy to find and they standbys (30-40 min wait). Overall, good service, fantastic flavor, high quality ingredients, it's def one of the best meals I had this year. BTW, they are moving to a much larger location in Culver City around April 2026. read more

We were meeting up with a friend in the area and we both happened to suggest Pizzeria Sei. It's been on my list to try out, but we're in Northern California and haven't been down in a while. I didn't know what time they opened, but without a reservation, we decided to show up early, around 11:30am on Friday. They open at 12 and we were the first in line. As it would turn out, this was a smart decision because by 11:50, the line was at least 20 people deep and the restaurant is pretty small, with only a few tables and maybe seating for 8 people at the counter. As soon as they opened, they asked for reservations first and then began seating walk-ins so we got a seat right away. If you're a 3-top, I'd recommend the counter as you get WAY more space. We were essentially crammed into a 2 top with an awkward 3rd chair and place setting. We had the special Margherita and the Funghi and both were phenomenal, but all three of us agreed the Margherita was the best. The dough was nice and thin in the center with a nice, chewy crust. The pies were cooked perfectly. They will recommend one pie per person, but three of us didn't even finish two, taking the rest to go. Is it worth the hype? 100%. But grab a reservation or plan to show up early and wait for a walk-in spot. Either way, it's absolutely worth it. I can't wait to go back and try the Spicy Mala Lamb! read more

We've had this place recommended to us from a chef from one of our favorite places over a year ago so we've been meaning to go for quite a while now but weekend reservations were pretty hard to get. There's some street parking available along Pico blvd, but we also easily found free parking in the surrounding neighborhood for our 4 pm reservation. We got three pizzas and a tiramisu which came out to a subtotal of $94. Maybe our expectations were too high given the hype around this place, but didn't feel like the taste matched the price here. - Funghi: this was pretty good. The mushrooms were delicious and the crust was very nicely charred - Bismarck: this one was pretty disappointing. The prosciutto tasted like standard ham straight from the grocery store and overall lacking in flavor - Mala lamb sausage: this was our favorite. It had a nice spice kick and the herbs really balanced out the flavors Tiramisu: really good and creamy read more

Got two pizzas to go, and they were fine. Taking off a point in my rating because they nickel and dime you for a single small container of parmesan. They asked for 10% minimum tip for take out orders (not to mention $26 for a single-person pizza before taxes), and they were like "Oh, we charge $1 for parmesan." Didn't have cash, as I already paid online, including $6 in tip. If you're going to provide that kind of "service", then don't ask for a tip on take out orders. read more

This place serves one of the best pizzas I've ever had! The margherita is to die for - I would opt to add a few more basil leaves next time because I didn't taste enough of it. We also liked their patate pizza! But the real winner is their super chewy and flavorful crust. Really unique and stands out from most pizza joints! The biggest gripe is really the interior of the place. There's no vibe, no decor - you're really only there for their pizza. Next time I try will be takeout and see how fresh it can be even when I consume it at home! read more
