    Tikka Masala Pizza
    Tuss R.

    Yum! Great flavor but what really surprised me was how yummy the crust was! I normally don't like crust and don't eat it but this crust was so perfectly crisp and light. Combined with the great toppings and sauce? So great. Server was really nice and gave us complimentary drinks b/c it was our first time. There's some chill outdoor seating w/ those old school circle benches like from school. Need to come back immediately to try the other pizzas!

    You can not custom a pie

    Small little nook. Pizza was good. There is seating inside and some tables outside. It's very warm inside the dining area due to the viewable oven pit oven. Cashier said the pit is made from volcano ashes from Italy . There is no restroom available or kids high chairs. You cannot custom a pie but first time customers you get a free drink.

    This place is definitely a mom and pop hidden gem in Sunland, CA. It's tucked away in a small plaza with its own self-parking parking lot. I must say that it's one of the best pizzerias that I have been to in such a long time. Definitely not your traditional pizzas, but more with true whole flavors. Its specialized gourmet pizzas and being cooked in a wood burning oven even better. There is seating inside as well as outside. They are also located across the street to the public park. I was invited here by one of my friends. She's gluten free and I have been wanting to try it for some time. She invited me to meet up here. I must say it's definitely a location to try and keep saved. Trying out the Gluten Free pizza was amazing. The pizza was so full of flavor that the dough itself I couldn't even taste the difference to regular pizza. Oscar helped us out. He was great at explaining everything that goes on the pizza. He was knowledgeable, attentive, and made sure that we were fully satisfied with our choices of pizzas. The vibe is cozy, casual, and they are very welcoming - especially if it's your first time there. Being my first time here, Oscar made me feel as if I hadn't been here in a while and gave me a feeling like I was missed. They use ingredients that are imported from Italy. They have several culinary awards and recognitions from ABC 7, Food Network, International Pizza Championship - Parma Italy to name a few and others. I tried That's A'More (Classic Pistachio Pesto - Bianca) Pistachio pesto, buttery creamy cheese, fontina, fresh mozzarella, napoli sea salt, extra virgin olive oil, seasoned with oregano, thyme, and rosemary. I added garlic chicken. My friend ordered the Gluten Free All Fired Up! Smokey beef spicy pizza house made with BBQ sauce, hand crushed san marzano tomatoes, sweet peppers, onions, mozzarella, olive oil, and himalayan salt. Next time, I'll have to try the Tuscany and Bombay Tikka Masala. To my surprise, they are very flexible/accommodating for Vegan/Gluten Free crust options. They also have standard Halal meats. Overall, I can't wait to come back. This place is worth every cent!

    Chicken Tikka masala pizza
    Sean O.

    This pizza place has been on my go-to list for a while now, and it absolutely delivers on the hype. What makes 786 Degrees so special is their creative approach to pizza. They're treating each pie like a passport stamp, incorporating international influences that make every bite feel like a mini culinary adventure. We'd be remiss not to mention the Chicken Tikka Masala pizza. The sauce was incredibly flavorful, and the chicken was cooked to perfection with just the right amount of char on the crust. The dough had great texture, though I personally would've loved a bit more depth of flavor from fermentation. But honestly, that's nitpicking. It's a small detail in an otherwise stellar experience. The staff really elevated our visit. When they found out we were first timers, they offered us a free beverage and one of the women physically walked us through the menu, explaining each option before we settled on our order. That kind of hospitality goes a long way. We also tried the PEPPERONI BumbleBEE STING. Soppressata-inspired spicy beef pepperoni with Calabrian sliced peppers and sesame. It's billed as a combination of sweet and spice umami flavors, and while it delivered on that front, I would have appreciated more pronounced honey sweetness and a spicier kick to really make it sing. All in all, 786 Degrees is a must-try. Any pizza fan in Los Angeles should have this spot on their radar. The creativity, quality, and welcoming atmosphere make it worth the visit.

    Istanbul Pizza
    Ben K.

    Wow... my experience here was phenomenal! The different pizza options were diverse! There were a lot of pizzas I would've never thought of. When I first walked in I was greeted very kindly and once they heard it was my first time visiting, they gave me a run down on some of the more interesting pizzas from their menu. It was very hard to not go with one of several we talked about, but I ended up ordering the Istanbul pizza. My pizza was phenomenal, the Haideri sauce was delicious! Every bit of the pizza was a little bite of perfection, the crust, the sauce, the toppings all seemed to be placed with great intention. While I waited for my pizza to be made, and even after, I learned that the pizza wasn't the best part (and it was amazing)... it was the passion that Carlos (and 786) has for not only making a really good pizza and knowing their customers, but for striving to find new and original ways to bring worldwide tastes and experiences onto a pizza! Carlos and crew, keep doing what you're doing!

    I really wanted to love this place after seeing so many positive reviews on Yelp, but honestly, there is better pizza out there. That said, there are some positives. The staff was fairly friendly, it was not overly busy when I visited, and the creative pizza combinations offer a fun twist on more traditional options. The ambiance was just okay. There is not much seating, and the space feels more like a working kitchen than a place designed to sit and enjoy a meal. It is fine for a quick stop, but not somewhere I would want to linger. My main issue comes down to the dough. For a spot that focuses solely on pizza, the dough really needs to shine, and unfortunately it did not. While it had a decent chew, the flavor was flat and slightly off, with an aftertaste that was not very pleasant. The charred spots were not crisped well either and tasted more burnt than intentionally charred, with the same soft texture as the rest of the crust. Out of the three pizzas we tried, the Habibi pizza was my favorite. The garlic yogurt sauce was genuinely delicious, but the lamb and beef fell short. The texture was mushy and the flavor did not come through as much as I was hoping. One other downside is the value. The pizzas were over twenty dollars and not very filling, which made the experience feel even more underwhelming given the other issues

    Bulgogi pizza
    Monica M.

    On this day we ordered the Bulgogi pizza which was disappointing. Pizza was salty, limited bulgogi and the corn was unnecessary and didn't add any flavor to it. The crust is super thin which isn't a big deal but preferably a thicker dough would hold the topping better. Thw issue is the consistency of the dough is always different, its a gamble you may get a nicely baked pizza or you may get an over cooked or even worse burnt crust. The pizza is so small & pricey for the size (anywhere from $19-$26) and not knowing if your pizza will come out nicely baked or overly cooked/burnt isn't a gamble I want to take. Weeks back we had the the "Bombay tikka" that one had better flavors, although the crust was overly cooked/burnt. The service has been good the 3x we've been here, the workers are always friendly and ready to help with any question, the spot is small and the decor felt like we were back in Italy, but the uncertainty of how cooked/burnt the pizza will be isn't a gamble I'm willing to take again, I like consistency. In San Fernando (on San Fernando Road) there are 2 Mom & Pop pizza shops that have more flavorful pizzas, bigger proportions and always consistent with the crust.

    We got the Bombay Tikka Masala pizza and the La Americana pizza. Both were delicious. They were freshly made in like 5 - 6 minutes and came out perfect. The chef was very friendly.

    Mary S.

    This pizza place is really unique because they have pizzas inspired by different cultures and somehow they capture the essence of each one. It is a small spot but there are plenty of options to choose from. The prices are great, the customer service is friendly, and the pizza itself is honestly delicious. It might look like a little hole in the wall from the outside but it is definitely worth checking out. If you have never been here before you should try it at least once because it is such a fun and tasty experience.

    Istanbul
    Stephanie B.

    Sooo many unique options! Even if you don't like pizza, you should check this place out because some of their options literally taste nothing like pizza & it's great. I personally don't like marinara sauce so I tried their Instanbul pizza & it was amazing & reminded me of humus & pita bread. My husband got the Marguerite pizza which is good if you like cheese & marinara sauce Would definitely come back & try some of their other options like the bulgogi, habibi & fungi lama Not too much space to dine in but they also have outdoor seating and the park is literally right across the street so you can easily set up a cute picnic Also service was amazing! Everyone working there was very friendly and helpful

    wow, this was on my wishlist for almost a decade and it lived up to it!!…read more FAVORITES: - Roasted Bone Marrow - Corn Agnolotti - Mussels & Clams The famous Pork Sausage Cavatelli with truffle is good, but didn't amaze me like the others. The Branzino was a nice surprise, fish was cooked perfect and it was also unique (never had branzino like that flavor before). I will say this place is quite pricey and the portion sizes are also very small. So be prepared to spend $150+ for 2 people. Service was on toppppp! especially on the water refills, there were so on top of it A+++++ The ambiance is nice, warehouse like but with some charm & greenery. Sitting outside on their patio was quite nice on a summer night! Note you can see multiple cute raccoons hanging out & climbing the trees as well, free nature show!

    I gotta say, Bestia's got an ambitious menu and I am here for it! Half of the ingredients I can't…read moreeven pronounce. But as far as tapas style dinners go, this spot's gotta be on your list. Ranking from best to decent: Duck Liver Pâté -- gee golly, the absolute best pate I've ever consumed and the best plate of the night. Seems like everyone's going for the bone marrow... nah. If you're into pate whatsoever, you cannot miss out on this one. And you know what it is? Wasn't even the truffle.. the secret is in the pine nut miso. Delicious. 10/10 Chocolate Budino Tart -- decadent, rich, bold chocolate dessert. My wife don't even like chocolate, but she liked this one, especially as a closer to our meal. 9/10 Charred Octopus -- got a nice kick, beautiful texture, and smokey flavors. The polenta is chef's kiss. 7/10 Cavatelli alla Norcina -- truffle me up son! Flavor on this one is not too over-the-top, which is good! 7/10 Roasted Bone Marrow -- yeh alright. I think I came in with too high of an expectation for this one. The pasta itself was a texture I wasn't too accustomed to. The flavor is restrained and very subtle.. which is what I've always preferred.. but maybe I was expecting more flavor out of this one. 5/10 Squid Ink Spaghetti -- you know... maybe I'm just not that into seafood like I thought I was. If you're a seafood lover, you may appreciate this dish more than I did. 4/10 Overall, great experience! Really, my only qualm was my own high expectations that I think made some of the dishes a bit underwhelming. Otherwise, I'd come back and try other dishes! Service was good, ambience was nice, valet's about $13. No complaints there.

I would come back just for this pasta alone. The tiramisu was chef's kiss So light, creamy, and the perfect way to end the meal. I lovedddd everything! The garlic bread came out hot and fluffy, but I do wish it had a little more garlic butter. Still yummy though! The chicken parm was good, but I didn't think there was anything super special about the flavor. I'd probably skip it next time and just get more pasta... Also, the decor is SO sweet and charming! Every table had its own little vase of fresh flowers, which was such a cute touch and made the whole place feel cozy and intimate. Overall, such a cute spot with AMAZING pasta. The vodka pasta + tiramisu combo is a MUST!!! Parking is either street or at a near by lot; it wasn't too expensive though!

    Came on a Monday as soon as it opened to put down my name since all reservations were booked up…read more Was able to secure a 6:00PM spot! I had heard great things about Donna's so I was ok with waiting. Our server was really nice, she let us know that this was meant to be family-style and that we should order 4-6 dishes for two people. We started off with the meatballs and garlic bread. The meatballs were great, came with a tomato sauce, no complaints here. The waitress had recommended we get the garlic bread to go with the meatballs since they came by themselves. The garlic bread was garlicky indeed, though I found the ends to be pretty hard. I wouldn't recommend it. We also tried their gnocchi and fusilli a la vodka for their pasta. The fusilli was great, I realized it wasn't your typical spicy vodka sauce since it didn't have that kick. It was a pretty light sauce, fusilli was cooked very well. The truffle gnocchi looked really good when we got it. The server said we should mix it up as per the chef and then the dish lost a bit of that good appeal, but it still tasted good! I'm a big fan of gnocchi and no complaints with Donna's. Overall their pastas were pretty good. I was really looking forward to trying their chicken parm. Everyone seems to rave about it so we had to make sure to get it. I thought the breading and everything around the chicken was great, but the chicken itself was pretty rubbery and chewy. I was pretty disappointed since the pasta had given me high hope for their chicken parm. Maybe it was an off night, but I would say that this was pretty disappointing and not worth the hype. To end the night we tried the panna cotta since the server said it was the staff favorite dessert. Again, pretty good, not mind blowing. My favorites were definitely their pastas, the fusilli specifically. Everything else was pretty much not memorable. Was able to find free street parking around the corner, though they also have a paid lot.

    This is a review about a three-hour dinner we were still talking about a week later…read more First, the smell the moment we walked in confirmed we were about to have some seriously good, authentic Italian food, and Mother Wolf delivered. Everything from the food to the pacing to the service was exceptional. It was impressive to see how seamlessly the entire staff worked together. Our server, the bussers, sommelier and kitchen seemed completely in sync. Courses arrived with enough time between them to actually enjoy the evening, our glasses were never empty, and someone always seemed to check in at exactly the right moment (never hovering, never leaving us wondering where everyone went). They actually made a mistake with one of our dishes, but even that became part of a great experience. They immediately acknowledged it and offered to make it right. We ended up loving what accidentally arrived and happily kept it. Mistakes happen; how a restaurant handles them says far more about the quality of its hospitality. We were celebrating two birthdays, and somehow the entire staff seemed clued in. From our first greeting through dessert, there was a warmth to the service that made the night feel genuinely special. We even ended up chatting with our server about other favorite restaurants in the area and bonded over our mutual recommendations. Our only problem with Mother Wolf: everything on the menu sounds incredible, so apparently we have to come back multiple times. Tragic. One word of caution unrelated to the restaurant itself: I'd skip the valet. Our keys were left inside our running car for about 15 min while the attendant had his back turned across the street, which made us pretty uncomfortable. There's a lot about a block away where you can park yourself for roughly the same price. Otherwise, absolutely loved our evening here. Incredible food, exceptional hospitality, and a meal you keep talking about afterward. Can't wait to come back--and hit the speakeasy next time!
