2.4 Stars Ambiance: 4 Service: 4 Flavor / Quality: 2 Value: 1 Cleanliness: 4 I was really looking forward to coming here. After a long 5-mile run on the beach, I was craving protein and carbs, and the fact that this place is connected to Santa Monica Brew Works was a bonus! The Food: A Major Letdown I grabbed a pint and sat down, and while the QR code made ordering easy, the meal itself was a bummer. I ordered the Fried Chicken Sandwich with a side of Waffle Fries. Including tip, it cost around $26--definitely "Meh Value" for what I actually got. The Sandwich: The chicken was pounded thin before frying, reminiscent of a schnitzel, but it was completely flavorless. There wasn't much sauce, and there was a very off-putting taste in either the breading or the sauce--something cinnamony or like nutmeg that just didn't belong. I had to force it down just to recover from my run and not waste the money. Also, the menu said their sandwiches and burgers were made on pretzel buns. This one was served on a regular bun. The Fries: The waffle fries were actually the highlight. They were seasoned well and came with ketchup, though I wish they offered other dipping sauces. Vibe & Service The service was Good at least it was quick and efficient thanks to the QR system. The space is nice and clean of course it's likely Santa Monica Brew Works' space, but I'll allow it--oh and being able to pair the food with a brew from next door is a great concept. I saw some people eating the pizza nearby and it looked decent, but the sandwich experience left such a literal gnarly taste in my mouth that I'm not sure I'll be back. read more

After about a year of thinking "I should try this" I finally ordered some pizza. The Margherita is one of the best I've ever had. Full Stop. The Chrizo crunch is surprisingly tasty and I'm thrilled I tried it despite my inner voice that questioned. It is a true GEM! I can't wait to return, and plan to be trying the Banana pudding dessert and the seasoned fries. It will be hard though. I'm a true pizza fan, and with pizza this good - it's hard to not order a couple and look forward to take home leftovers. It is That GOOD & TASTY !+++ A+ on service and staff Highly friendly humans who care and it shows in how they address you. I will be back so soon. Oh, I forgot pics because it was so yummy but I'll update when I visit again. The price is kinda steep, but that is the case almost everywhere these days. The ambiance and outstanding staff besides the taste make it worth the price. I wish all places with higher prices were worth it. This one for sure is :) ++ read more

The portions are so small unfortunately. The burger shouldn't even be offered at the teeny measly size it is for $17. It was like eating a slider! :( I love the pizza and all but everything else on the menu is overpriced and not filling read more

Emmy Squared Pizza - Such a thin piece of beef on the burger. Not worth it - Pizza Near Me - Santa Monica, California

Came to grab some drinks at Santa Monica Brew Works, and Emma Squared Pizza is connected with them. Easy to order food and have it brought out to your table. We were with a large group so ordered a bunch of different pizzas and appetizers to share. First off, deep dish pizza is always delicious. Very hard to go wrong, and they did the pizza so right. They have such a wide selection, and I wish I remembered the name of what we ordered. But there was a hot honey one that was delicious as well as an incredible mushroom one and, of course, the classic pepperoni. Plus they vegan pizzas, which are also great for people who can't have dairy. Their fries and chopped Italian salad were also the big winners. The big downside is the price - definitely more expensive at about 25-30/pizza. So just something to be aware of if you order. Overall, though, delicious pizza that goes perfectly with a fresh beer at the neighboring brewery. read more

Emmy Squared Pizza is located near Santa Monica Brew Works, and this is the nearest bite that can be ordered by QR Code. It is neatly organized so that it is brought directly to your table at a reasonable cost. Between the Matt Burger, Fried Chicken, and fries, I have to admit that the food in general was fairly salty. I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of chicken, though. read more

Guys - got the Bodega Burger... best burger of my life I'm not just saying that. It's like a smashed burger, melted with cheese, so good. It was 10/10. It took probably 25 minutes and we came too close to closing time, but it was well worth the wait and worth $25 with tip and a small drink. Would come back. So good. read more

I recently met up with a friend at Santa Monica Brew Works and we decided to try Emmy's Squares Pizza. Each of us tried a different type, I had the MVP (which was not bad). The service was fast and they bring it out to your table if you use the QR code to order, the ambiance isn't bad, but it's chilly if you sit outside these days! The pizza had a nice flavor to it, I always love a good mixture of marinara and vodka sauce, especially with a pesto drizzle - so it's not surprising. However, at about $25 per personal pizza (only way they sell it) it's really not worth it at all. I don't think this is a bad choice if you're craving pizza and already at Santa Monica Brew Works, otherwise I would try one of the other amazing pizza spots on the Westside or elsewhere in LA. Food: 3.5/5 Service: 4/5 Value: 2/5 Overall: 3.33/5 read more

Emmy Squared makes incredible Detroit-style pizza. The crispy, caramelized crust pairs perfectly with a craft beer from Santa Monica Brew Works. Their Margherita pizza is a standout--simple, fresh, and full of flavor with mozzarella, basil, and a rich tomato sauce. The laid-back atmosphere and great service make it an easy favorite. If you're in the area, it's definitely worth a visit. read more

Food: EXCELLENT. The pizza options were wide and the options for adding to your pizza were decent. I really enjoyed the Nashville hot chicken pizza - the pizza was absolutely worth the money, filling with enough left over for a quick snack, fresh, soft and delicious!!! Service: fast and direct to the table you order from in a to go box. No complaints here. Ambiance: Love the outdoor patio attached to the Santa Monica Brew works. This makes the entire establishment a great place to go relax and chill and have some delicious pizza and beer or wine. Can't wait to return! read more

Return visit. Have had pizza and these eggplant sliders. Great food. Updating to 5 stars because coupled with Santa Monica Breworks it's a good pairing. Captive audience. Sliders were very good. Enjoyed immensely. For the price of their offerings I was surprised there was not alternate dips included. Ketchup is simple(for the fries), A flavorful ranch or flavored ketchup would go a long way. read more

First time here, at the brand new LA Live location across from The Crypt. Positive experience overall - they made my pizza well done, like actually burnt well done - Bravo ! The 6 slice pizzas are enough for 2 people . Service was right on point and ambience decent - its in the old Lawry's and not much was changed. Only thing is they need a smaller side salad on the menu . Only two $ 20 entree sized salads on the menu but otherwise I'll return ! read more

Good: The crust, the sauce, the cheese. Bad: The "hot chicken" on the hot chicken pizza. Texture like Tyson freezer chicken with absolutely no flavor. No hot sauce or anything else to help when we asked. Awful: The Caesar salad. Almost inedible for $17. Had almost no dressing, and the dressing that was there was almost clear and flavorless. The lettuce was sad and wilted. Y'all really should not be selling this. read more

I first enjoyed this place when I was in NYC. Loved the burger. The pizza looked great so I told myself it was worth a return when next in New York. Turns out I didn't need to wait when I realized there is an LA location. I love the setup so I can enjoy a good pie and brew at once. Ordering at the brewery was easy. The pizza was great- the Miranda and there were about 5-6 on the menu I still want to try. I will definitely be back! read more

I came back on a crazy busy Friday night just for The Emmy Pizza, and it was every bit as amazing as I remembered. That crispy-edged Detroit-style crust, the perfect layer of sauce, and the blend of cheeses that somehow stay light but flavorful, it's pure magic. Even with the Friday night rush, the service was spot-on. The staff kept the line moving, tables spotless, and still made everyone feel welcome, that friendly "where everybody knows your name" neighborhood vibe you can only get from a truly local spot. I stuck with my usual tradition, pairing great pizza with a cold local brew (because beer deserves its pairing moment too!). There's just something about a pint from Santa Monica Brew Works and a slice of The Emmy that hits all the right notes. If you're debating whether it's worth the trip, it absolutely is. Emmy's Square Pizza has the food, the energy, and the heart that keeps you coming back. read more

Emmy Squared Pizza - The Emmy! - Pizza Near Me - Santa Monica, California

The pizza here is undoubtedly fantastic. I didn't realize they were deep dish, which I am not usually a fan of (go thin crust!), but this was truly stellar. All the ingredients were on point, even the sauces (coriander ranch, anyone?) were pretty tasty. My only gripe is that there is an 18% service charge automatically added to your order. The way I feel about this business model is the same way I feel about hidden hotel "amenity fees" or cell phone "service fees", it sucks. As a customer, I'd prefer that the restaurant simply increased the prices so I know how much I'm paying. Nonetheless, the food was good. And if you pair it with a cold one from the Santa Monica Brew Works next door, it's perfect for a bite after work with friends. read more

Just a quick note-- haven't been able to sample much but what I did have was amazing. The pizza is really really good. Lots of cheese pull! My friend had one of the salads and really enjoyed it. They also had options for kids that looked just as good as anything-- so don't miss out. Oh - and I sampled all this from attending an event at Santa Monica Brew works. You can be there and order from Emmy squared and they deliver right to your table! It's amazing. And delicious. read more

This is a good place is good when you're in search of food to pair with Santa Monica Brew Works. The pizzas were pretty good, and I especially liked the Colony pizza as the spicy from the jalapeño paired with the sweetness from the honey was a good combination. Because the pizza is square shaped, there's not a whole lot of crust, but I thought the dough was soft and chewy, and the toppings were fresh. There's a lot of outdoor seating outside of Santa Monica Brew Works (need to be 21+ to enter), and there's bar codes to scan to order the food directly to your table. read more

I finally tried Emmy Squared when I was with some friends at Santa Monica Brew Works. I ordered on my phone via the QR code on the table. The wait was a bit long (or maybe it felt like that because I was hungry!), but once my pizza arrived, I was very pleased. I got the MVP (which has house-made vodka sauce, red sauce, garlic parsley pesto, and a sesame seed crust). It was really, really good and it was a nice size -- and after I took home my leftovers, it was just as good the next day! read more

Helio there Was super excited to finally try this spot as I've eaten at Emily in Brooklyn, NY - home of the BEST burger ANYWHERE, EVER...the Emi Hit this spot on a Thursday early afternoon to get a Le Big Matt and some Waffle Fries...served hot and fresh!!! I'm not a waffle fry guy but DAMN they were bomb!!! Great, friendly service. Managed to avoid crowds and ya gotta love the Emi sauce and the pretzel bun...EFFING DELICIOUS. Now, because my yardstick for measure is the OG Emi Burger in BK (which gets 5 stars all day every day), this burger was delicious but not as perfect as the Emi. That said, this gets a 4+ ... I'd happily return for these items and to try a few other things on the menu as well. Decide for yourself... read more

Emmy Squared Pizza was an unexpected delight! Despite my initial skepticism, especially since my partner and her sister are more about the beer than the food, this place won me over. We tried the Burrata and Colony pizzas. Surprisingly, we loved the Colony more than the Burrata, which is one of our favorite cheeses. The crust was perfectly crisp, and each bite was a delightful crunch. I can't wait to return just for the pizza. Crispy Chicken Crunchers: 3.5/5 usually I would want ranch, but with this the flavor alone was great Smoked Trout Dip:3.5/5 perfect balance with the potato chips, not too fishy Le Big Matt Burger:4.5/5 juicy and flavorful Colony Pizza:5/5 - Perfect balance of savory and sweet with honey and a jalapeño kick. Big Al Pizza:4.5/5 - Burrata, sausage, and a chili kick, almost as good as the Colony. Service: great and attentive please note that there is a believe 18% service fee. Chill vibes on a late Friday afternoon. The sun wasn't too bad but ensure you bring a light sweater when the sun sets and the breeze start to blow. Everything was delicious, and I highly recommend Emmy Squared Pizza to any pizza and burger foodie! read more

It is hard to find good Detroit style/Sicilian pizza in LA. Emmy Squared does a good job for LA standards. While a bit small and a little overpriced for what you get. Pizza is a little smaller than a standard sheet of paper. Crust was nice and crunchy but the center of the pizza was a little too moist, which I think it is due to the crushed tomatoes on top. The middle should have been more fluffy. If you have had Golden Boy in San Francisco then you know what I mean. Definitely will try some of their other pizzas. read more

Emmy Squared is originally an NYC-based pizza restaurant that opened a pop-up location inside Santa Monica Brew Works! The pizza is Detroit-style with a thick crust, crispy edges, and sauce over the cheese. They have burgers and other food besides pizza too, and you order using a QR code on the tables at the brewery. The pizzas start at $18 and come with 6 slices. They can easily feed 2 people each since the slices are pretty thick and filling. It's super tasty and great quality pizza for anyone who likes a thicker pan crust. An 18% service fee is included but that's basically just the tip. There is a free parking lot but it can get a little crowded evenings and weekends. read more

Way too overpriced for what you get. Parking was challenging and options were limited.

Emmy Squared is a pop-up serving Detroit-style pizza in Santa Monica Brew works. Emmy Squared and and its sister restaurant, Emily, were some of our favorites for pizza when we lived in NYC so we knew we had to try it while it is in LA. We ordered pick up late on a Sunday afternoon. It was about 4:30 when we came to get it and the place was busy. We ordered The Colony pizza, cheese garlic sticks and the Brussels sprouts salad. The Colony pizza is their signature pizza with red sauce, honey, jalapeños, and pepperoni. It's always one of our favorites but admittedly does feel like a fast food pizza. The cheesy garlic sticks and the Brussels sprouts salad were both good. The garlic sticks came with a carton of pesto sauce. These sticks were tasty but not something you could eat a lot of. Would recommend this place if you're in the mood for Detroit-style pizza. read more

This is the first time I've ever ordered a pizza that I didn't want to share with other people, cause A: it was really good, and B: it was so expensive! It's Detroit style, so thicker dry crust with a nice chew. There's a ton of different options to choose from, I opted for a chorizo crunch pizza and a truffle pizza, and both were equally yummy. Value though is pretty awful. It's like $24 for a tiny 6 slice pizza, plus a mandatory 18% service charge for the runner to drop the pizza box off at your table, plus tax, pushing the total cost to over $30. I got 2 pizzas and a burger which wound up being over $100. That's kinda nuts. read more
