I tried to spicy pepperoni and I have to tell you it's definitely spicy be prepared to order that lemonade but when I walked in, I could see the place was busy. They have a variety with different things to try, but I was definitely trying the spicy pepperoni first bite definitely woke me right up and got a jar of lemonade... Excuse me a bottle and it was delicious, but I had to try the regular pepperoni next because it wasn't quite finished I love sitting in this place. It's comfortable. Well there's two TVs. There's a lot of history here. The flavor of the pizza is incredible!

Grandma slice

Pizza place in the plaza on victory and canoga. Took over a prior pizza spot. I appreciate that slices were readily available. I got the grandma slice for $5 plus tax. They have lunch specials and you can buy a full pizza too.

I've passed by this place when going to Jumba Juice or CA Fish Grill next door. Finally decided to check them out and I wasn't disappointed but also wasn't too impressed either. I got the pepperoni and white sauce options. While the pizzas were thick and good enough, it didn't really stand out for me. I would say, check them out and see for yourself.

Really good pizza! At first I was a bit hesitant when I saw the price and each topping was close to $3 but when I tried it..100% worth it plus one slice was enough for me.

I've heard a lot about Prime from people who really like their pizza, so I finally stopped in to check it out. To start, the shop itself is nicely appointed, clean as a whistle and decorated with some fun posters. TV's show sports, and music plays lightly, so you have an upbeat place to grab a slice. Staff is also nice as can be; very friendly and accommodating, and moving quickly to get people served. I opted to try 2 slices: the Spicy Pepperoni Sicilian, and a traditional slice of Plain Cheese. The square slice had a focaccia style dough that was airy on the inside while crisping to an appealing crunch on the bottom. The sauce had seeped into the porous dough a bit, so there was a good deal of tomato flavor without there being much excess sauce atop the slice. Cheese had melted nicely, and the cup & char pepperoni had a good punch of flavor. Calabrian chili added the extra spice that made the slice pop, and I really enjoyed this version. I was less enamored of the Traditional Cheese Slice. In this case, we had traditional pizza dough, still light and crispy, but without the airy bubbles of the square slice. Because of the dough, the sauce remained atop the pizza more, and there wasn't enough cheese to balance it out. Also, the slice was relatively small -- not the usual "slice pie" size that you'd expect to get. Combined with the other slice, I was okay, but had I just bought this small triangle I would have been a bit peeved. Overall, the traditional was nothing I would come in for again if I could go to Joe's, Mulberry Street or Slice House, but I would return for the Square slices and try some of the other options.

First time trying this pizza, and it was really good! The crust was perfectly cooked, the toppings were fresh, and everything tasted delicious.

Nice selection of slices!
Steve S.

A very worthy cheese pizza at this spot. They heat it up in the oven for you and it tastes great. The slice has no flop, with a bit of a charred undercarriage and the cheese on top has a rich, yummy taste. One of the better cheese slices in LA! The location itself is very nice, with open kitchen, sporty decor and a bright, welcoming color choice for interior. The interior has many tables for dining in and a TV to watch sports. The customer service was excellent. Will definitely come back again!

3.5 stars but I'll round up. Tried the badmaash collab. Good robust flavors and very strong spice and creative. Also tried the vodka slice and had a good crust and flavor. However the slices given to me didn't really feel fresh- I don't think it was reheated or if so not well cause the slices given felt like it had been sitting out

Boston Sicilian pizza slice
Tommy L.

I've driven by this place a bunch of times and finally decided to stop in. I almost never order a whole pizza when I'm checking out a new place. I always get a slice first, and if it's really good, I'll come back for more. If not, I move on to the next place. Today happened to be one of those move on situations. I went with the Boston Sicilian slice. Right away I noticed the slice had been sitting in the counter display for a while, and I was hoping they wouldn't give me that one, but they did. They popped it in the oven for a couple of minutes and brought it out. The slice actually had a nice amount of marinara, ricotta, pesto, and melted cheese, and there was a little olive oil that added some nice flavor. The crust had a good crunch on the outside and stayed soft inside, but it wasn't as thick and airy as a traditional Detroit-style pizza. The dough also had a noticeable sourdough taste. Overall, it wasn't a bad slice, but it definitely wasn't a great one either. I think if it had been fresh out of the oven instead of sitting on the counter display, it probably would have been a much better experience. For me, it was just an average slice, and not one I'd go out of my way to come back for.

I'm not a fan of pizza, but this by far, hands down is the best locally. Love love love the spicy pepperoni pizza and their Hawaiian. But anything as long as it came out fresh out of the oven was awesome as well as when we heat up if we get left overs. We celebrated my son's quick little gathering for his birthday there and Heather and the staff was amazing in helping us out make it such a great experience for the kids. They want to go there for their meets ups now. The place is constantly clean and we love coming there.

Supreme, round, New York style with  pepperoni, sausage, olives, red onions, and red bell peppers
Joyce E.

Prime Pizza is now in the West Valley and I am hooked! The pizza selection is great and delicious. I love that they offer pizza by the slice. I like having the option of getting a couple slices of different types of pizza, e.g. New York style (thin crust) and Brooklyn/Square (thick crust). They also offer gluten free and vegan pizza options. Garlic knots are soft, buttery and garlicky and come with marinara sauce. Every time I walk in I am greeted by friendly staff. It's a casual spot that offers seating & is good for small groups. They also have a few tables outside too. P.S. They have a Rewards/ Loyalty program. 1pt for every $1, when you reach 100pts, $5 off. For your birthday, you get $5 off.

man, called in the order early maybe like 30 mins and it STILL wasn't ready after some time had passed and waited an extra 20 mins. I understand a heavy rush but not like that. it was nice inside and felt like a cool place to eat. Food was ok nothin really stood out but that's just me, a lot of people really like it.

Spicy pepperoni, grandma, Sicilian
Will P.

Came here during slice hour so all slices were only $3. Great deal and all of these slices were delicious. The white pizza was surprisingly my favorite, it was like a cheesy garlic bread. The grandma was also delicious. You can't really go wrong with any of the flavors

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.

After checking out their menu and reviews, we made reservations. Parking was tough on a Saturday night in the LA Arts District. We opted for a lot just a short walk away for $10. We arrived to an empty host stand so we walked in. We stood awkwardly by the door waiting to be acknowledged. The bar staff glanced at us but didn't say anything. It wasn't until a couple came in behind us, that one finally said, "the hostess will be with you". The hostess arrived a few minutes later. We were then seated at a nice quiet table by the bar. Matthew A. was our server. He was polite and friendly, but not attentive. Iceless, lukewarm "house water" was served in small drinking glasses and refilled only when he delivered parts of our order and noticed them empty. It would have been better to leave a cold bottle of water at the table, as other restaurants often do. We ordered the Kare-Kare Tamales, Manila Mais, Lamb Shank Kaldereta and Bicol Express Mezzelune. The Kare-Kare Tamales were our favorite. The moist masa was filled with tender braised oxtail and covered with the subtle, perfectly balanced peanut butter velouté. The bagoong dust provided just enough salty shrimp notes. A must try! The Manila Mais brought me back to the night markets of Pampanga where vendors would fan flames as rows of corn are grilled to a beautiful char. Sampa took it to another level with the bagoong butter, coconut crema and chili oil. Unfortunately the Lamb Shank Kaldereta was underwhelming. Aside from the super tender, fall off the bone lamb shank, the jus did not have much flavor. The crispy confit potatoes were not crispy at all and looked off (gray and wrinkled). The sliced carrots were better. We didn't get to try the Bicol Express Mezzelune. Our server came mid-course to tell us it was no longer available. He offered to sub for the Filipino Bucatini, which we accepted. This was our second favorite. The longanisa XO sauce was well executed, craveable and super tasty! For dessert, they only had the Ube Cheesecake left so we went with it. That took quite a while to arrive. It was ok. My last gripe of this experience is that most of the greens decoratively scattered over our dishes were wilted, which took away from the overall presentation. Even the garnish of mint leaves on the dessert was sadly limp. I'm not sure if these were just old or not stored properly. For the price point, this detail should matter. Plates are all shareable, just enough for two. The Sampa menu is creative and nostalgic. We talked about possibly giving them another try. If we do, hopefully service improves.
