    You got me!
    Tammy W.

    I am a sucker for anything that deems itself "the world's greatest....", the "city's best..." whatever it is- you fill in the blank. When I see this it is a personal challenge that I give myself. In this case, D town Pizza you caught my eye with your 3x world champion sign! So I had to try at least two flavors- the haoli & the dbm. I always secretly not want to like what I'm trying, especially when the location is far from home. Welp, I must report that this pizza is probably the best of the best I have ever eaten in my entire life! I thought I was a deep dish Chicago style girl but Detroit, you outdid yourself. The crust is airy, flaky, crunchy and the toppings are fresh and flavorful. My heart is yours forever! I'm so glad you have parking in the rear ( especially important since you're located in WeHo) ;-x

    Grabbed a quick dinner here last night. I've never had Detroit style pizza so I didn't know what to expect. We got the Haole which came in 4 big slices. It's a small spot, but with lots of personality. You can't eat here with a large group, but it's worth picking your food up from them so you can eat it fresh. The Haole was delicious. The pizza is thick, but airy so it never felt heavy. The bacon jam, pineapple, and jalapeños seamlessly came together to make each bite super flavorful. Worth eating if you're in the area!

    I've wanted to try DTown for a while now, and I'm so glad I finally did! I am a big fan of Detroit-style pizza, and DTown is another awesome option in a city full of really good pizza. We tried the "313" (vodka sauce, pesto parm) and "The Wise Guy" (meatball parm), which were both really good! I like that you can order half pies, too, so you can try different a few different options. The crispy cheese along the crust was amazing. Staff was nice, service was fairly quick, and the location is great. I'd definitely go back and try more of the menu. They're also on my favorite food app, inKind!

    Presentation and customer services are 5 stars ! The pizza albeit won several competitions was still missing something for me. Not to mention this is the 2nd best one for me in West Hollywood, Beverly Hills, and LA areas. I'm from NY so it's hard for me to be pleased when it comes to pizza, same can be said LA has the best tacos I've had. The place was empty when I went, it was super tidy and inviting. There are several indoor seats. No outdoor seating. The slice is very filling. I could not manage to eat 1 slice in one sitting. Overall great price point.

    "Haole" aka not Hawaiian

    I waited way too long to visit D-Town but man was it worth the wait. Chef/owner Ryan is the real deal. He knows how to make a killer pizza and his passion truly shows behind each pie. I ordered two half squares today, the 313 and Haole aka not Hawai'ian. Both of these were so damn good. The crust/dough is insane, it's so fluffy and bouncy with a super crispy crust and a fantastic bite. There's so much flavor in the dough alone I could eat it by itself. The 313 is rather simple but executed to perfection. Cheesy, savory, herby, light, and just delicious. The pesto and vodka sauce are as good or even better than the top pasta places. Combined on top of the pizza though here? Wow. Just, WOW. The Haole is such a unique and amazing take on the classic Hawai'ian, what sets it apart are the charred pineapple and bacon jam, plus the pickled jalapenos. Spicy, sweet, savory, fresh, just the best "Hawai'ian" pizza you could ever eat. Absolutely will return and try some more pizzas!

    The pizza here is the absolute best! The service is incredibly kind and the ambiance is that of any cool pizza shop but with better pizza! We're really lucky to have this here. All in all there is no better pizza anywhere in the county. If there were they woulda been 3 x world champs and not DTown but it's DTown pizza all day!

    I hadn't had a Detroit pizza in a while, so I head over to Santa Monica Blvd. after attempting to order online, which presented me with a problem until I finally figured it out. I did not get applied the discount that I was offered, but when I explained it the manager gave me a coupon to use next time for my discount. I ordered the "D.B.M." Dtown Burrata Margherita GF. A bit pricey but then pizza prices have risen and I get penalized being Gluten intolerant. I'm not intolerant to the price if the GF pizza is very good and while my fav is the thin crust, this crust is so much better than Chicago deep dish only because it's lighter, has a nice crunch and you really taste the toppings. Besides I get two meals out of this pie. So get square and get going to this takeout joint.

    Efficiency and stainless combined. Professional eye put this together.

    Being from NYC, I always assumed the only deep dish was Sicilian. Much later on I realized Chicago had great deep dish too. But! Nothing in deep dish comes close to Detroit-style pizza. I am late to this game but a quick learner. From now on, when we want deep dish pizza we will always choose Detroit style. And, the best I have had so far is definitely from dtown pizzeria, hands down. What I love about the WeHo location is easy parking during the late afternoon (say, 3-ish?), the fact that owner Ryan is there making each pie to order (and is so friendly and fast, too!), and the pizzas are superb. The crust is the feature I most appreciate in a Detroit-style pie. It is literally caramelized from the Wisconsin brick cheese that is incorporated with the dough. It is hard to describe the effect, but if cheese could be candy, this would be it. We got the 1946 Cheese and the "D.B.M" Dtown Burrata Margherita. Remember, we are vegetarians, so those two appealed to us the most. And they were divine, literally melt in your mouth perfect. See the photos. Now, remember, these are not huge, wide pies. We figure we could get two meals out of the two we ordered. They are filling, though. I especially appreciated the cloud-like pillows of burrata on the Margherita. I have never had mozzarella so expertly baked. The prices are very good, the place itself is clean and even inviting in a techno pizzacratic sort of way (look at the photos -- professional chefs will understand the efficiency and layout of the speed-racks and other stainless equipment. It looks sort of top of the line to me, with my baker's eye). It is a smallish, efficient little operation that does a few things but does them perfectly. The one thing I would advise? Eat your pizza there, even if you have to stand on the sidewalk to do it (there is seating, however, limited). That is the way to savor these masterpieces. Ours was room temp by the time we got it home and even then, we were rolling our eyes at how good they were. Next time, I am eating mine straight from Ryan's hands! I cannot imagine deep dish getting lighter, crisper, tastier, softer, meltier, mouth-pleasinger than these. Do not miss this opportunity. You will think you are in Motown.

    Place was nice and clean. My kids say the food was exquisite and the service was great. We loved this place. We are locals and this was our first time trying this place. The pizza was 100/100.

    I love a Hardy deep dish pizza and with my wife being gluten-free vegan it's hard to find. I have just found heaven. This is Hardy. Tasty fresh tons of choices. I just finished eating four pieces and I'm still drooling and licking my lips thinking about it. I got them delivered and it was served in a wonderfully timely manner. The pizza was still hot. The driver was very engaging and friendly. I can't wait to go to the restaurant itself and see how quaint and cozy and wonderful it is a must try yummy yummy in my tummy deep dish gluten-free vegan holy cow well without the cow.

    The pizza here is absolutely delicious! I suggest calling it in if you don't feel like waiting. Service was fine and they have a bit of seating, but ideal to go as well. There's a bit of free parking behind the store making it easier for pick up. The prices are high and the pizza on the small side, but don't be fold. It is extremely filling. High-quality ingredients and the pizza was perfectly baked. Great option for the area!

    I never really noticed this place before a buddy of mine recommended. We hop in around lunchtime for some pizza and I have to say this is my new all-time favorite number one spot. The pizza is. #Bangingly Good!!! I got a medium pepperoni and mushroom. It was about $28. More than enough for two meals and I'm a big eater. Four big thick slices so I was stoked and I'm somewhat of a cheap as pinching my pennies, and I thought it was a good value. The pizza itself was Outstanding crunchy on the outside crispy cheese surrounded by thick doughy melted cheese goodness! I thought the quality was first rate! Decent spots to sit inside and out if you just can't wait and wanna throw a slice or two down your gullet. There's a sign inside about not yapping on your phone and PS don't come in hyper stinky or wearing too much cologne. I like and appreciate that anyway will I be back? Can someone give me a "Hell Yah!!"

When I got into the…read morestore, I saw a cash only sign, so I had to walk down the street to get cash out of an atm. After that, I went inside to order. I decided to get a slice of pepperoni and also asked what else was good. I was told the vodka on a square is probably the best bet. The pepperoni slice tasted like a New York pizza, which was interesting because there aren't too many places that have that unique taste, aside from like village pizzeria. It was slightly better than that location, but also more costly, so you win some and you lose some. But what I really enjoyed was the vodka square slice. It had a creamy and savory sauce that really just hits, and then some spice that really brings it all together. It's really hard for me to think of another pizza that the square vodka slice compared to. The basil really brought the slice together as well. And the best part about it is it's memorable, and that becomes rarer and rarer as time goes by. The service is pretty quick, around 10 minutes to get your order after placing it. The ambiance is a small shop where you stand and eat. Pretty solid pizza place.

I am not someone who prefers a particular type of sauce although I do lean lite and sweet. The best square slice we had was easily the vodka slice. The pancetta and pepperoni were really good as well. I believe the reason the vodka slice was our favorite square slice was due to the crust. The crust in the pepperoni and pancetta slices were a little too hard and didn't have as much give and chew. The slices of their round cheese pizza were very good. I would say just as good if not better than the vodka slice. The crust and flavor of the cheese slices were really good. Remember though, this place is CASH ONLY! This also one of the few places in LA that has parking, so that was a plus. It is limited though due to being in a small area with multiple store fronts.

We arrived a little early for our reservation, and even though they were busy, they seated us right away outside. Our table was along the walkway, which wouldn't necessarily be my first choice next time, but I appreciated that they got us settled without making us wait around. The outdoor area had a relaxed neighborhood feel, and it was nice being outside while the evening was warm. We started with the Fiori di Zucca. The squash blossoms were stuffed with ricotta and Parmigiano, lightly fried, and served with marinara. They were good, although they weren't the dish I found myself thinking about afterward. That honor goes to the mussels. I wasn't expecting them to be my favorite thing we ordered, but they absolutely were. The broth was flavorful enough that I kept going back to it after the mussels were gone, which is usually my personal test for whether a mussel dish has done its job. We also shared the Pappardelle alla Vaccinara with braised oxtail ragù, Parmigiano, and rosemary oil. The ragù had a deep, meaty flavor, and I liked how the rosemary oil cut through some of the richness. It was a solid pasta, but the mussels still won the night for me. My cocktail was light and refreshing, with cucumber and mint, and worked especially well with dinner outside. Everything we ordered was flavorful, and the meal made for a lovely belated birthday dinner. Parking around this stretch of 3rd can be a little tricky. I ended up finding street parking a few blocks away, but Oste does offer valet, which would have saved me the neighborhood parking hunt. For a first visit, I'm glad I finally got to try Oste. It was a relaxed, flavorful dinner and a really nice way to celebrate a belated birthday.

The Food: We ordered the supreme pizza which can feed 4 people (2 slices per person) which I feel like it was pretty accurate unless someone is super hungry. The supreme pizza was amazing - it was filled with so many toppings but not too many where it made the pizza soggy. The pizza is made fresh - we saw the person in the back making our pizza when we ordered it - and it didn't take long either. The crust is perfectly thin and crispy and it held the sauce well. It was very well balanced. Price: $30 ish per pizza; about $5 a slice. I think it's super reasonable for the quality of pizza that you get. I would definitely pay this price for this pizza. The Atmosphere: Counter restaurant with some seating - not recommended if you have a large group since space is limited. Parking: Street parking only. Recommend you come early to allot for time to park.

After waiting another TWENTY MINUTES, i cancelled the order and asked for a refund. The whole point of pizza is that it's easy and fast!! That's why pizza was created. It's not rocket science. A 90 second pizza and salad takes close to two and a half hours to make?? I've been to the busiest pizza shops form LA to NYC to Rome and never experienced anything like this. Wow.

    I hit up Jon & Vinny's in Fairfax for lunch and easily grabbed metered street parking right out…read morefront. We were super bummed to hear they were out of the famous meatballs, which was the main thing we came for, so we had to pivot our ordering. We started with the house salad and it was a major win--the tomatoes were incredibly sweet. Next, we got the Roman Gladiator pizza, which was loaded with sausage and pepperoni and the crust was perfectly chewy but crispy. We also ordered the carbonara. The rigatoni itself was spot-on with a true al dente bite but it felt the pancetta was too salty. Food was still good despite this detail.

    The food was outstanding, service however was shockingly bad for such a well regarded restaurant…read more Our server seemed hassled to even have to be working, our main course came out slowly and one item at a time starting with the sides which shows poor time management skills in the kitchen, I'm pretty sure if I hadn't asked about it my main would have been left sitting for who knows how long (it had obviously cooled my the time I got it), and we never got our wine. If the food itself hadn't been so good my rating would be even less. My advice to anyone thinking of going here, is don't, order your food to go or get it delivered, as the staff here clearly have no time or interest in the experience of anyone actually dining in, having better things to do like chat up their friends up front. Edit: almost forgot, they need to step up the pest control, we were harassed by flies the entire time. Get a fly control system!

    Upon reading amazing reviews I decided to visit this local pizza shop today. The staff and the…read moreowner were very welcoming and helpful! Me and my husband ordered a couple slices of their pepperoni and chicken pesto. As someone who enjoys pizza and has tried a variety of different kinds, this place deserves so much more recognition! Not only were the slices fresh but also very big! Very filling and delicious! The chicken pesto had a perfect balance between chicken, cheese and pesto. Not overwhelming at all or oily. Their classic pepperoni was amazing, great quality and made to perfection. I can definitely tell that the pizza is made with dedication and experience. If you are ever in the area please come visit this place! It is a hidden gem with a variety of options and worth the price! The staff were very welcoming, respectful, and very knowledgeable about their menu! Very attentive and delivered outstanding service. The restaurant itself was well kept, clean, and beautifully decorated! Definitely coming back to this place, If I could give them ten stars out of five I would !

    I have been here a few more times since my first introductory review and I managed to finally try…read moretheir notorious oxtail pizza that it is time for an updated review. I had a craving for Esco's pizza (a telltale sign that Esco's has now occupied my brain more than the neighboring pizzerias) so I popped in on a Sunday and found that they had slices of oxtail pizza. I immediately ordered it. They also had jerk chicken pizza and a chicken pesto pizza. After talking to the woman behind the counter, I decided to order pesto pizza, since she recommended it and it was the best decision! The chicken pesto pizza is so flavorful. Chicken pieces were cooked tender, not dry and it was fully marinated in the pesto. Great fresh tastes of basil, Parmesan cheese and the pine nuts, one slice was enough to be a satisfying meal. Buuut, I didn't in this case, because I still had the oxtail! The beef was tender with a slight crispy edge and was served generously on the slice. Jalapeno slices add just the right amount of heat. It comes with a a side of consomme where you can dip your pizza. I would definitely come back for both slices. People from Esco's are mad friendly and hospitable which is a huge pull for me. Bumped up the rating a star!
