My first experience (a Friday night pizza order) wasn't great, so I figured maybe it was just an off night. This time around, we ordered lemon pepper wings, garlic knots, and a half-and-half square pizza: pepperoni on one side and meat lovers on the other. The lemon pepper wings were the standout, really flavorful and easily my favorite part of the order. Not too greasy at all. The pizza was a big improvement too. The crust edges weren't burnt to a crisp and everything tasted fresh and well put together. That said, I wasn't a fan of the sausage on the meat lovers side, so I'd probably skip that next time. One thing I really appreciated was how accurate their pickup timing was. I showed up exactly when the order was supposed to be ready, and it actually was, no waiting around. Overall, they definitely redeemed themselves. I'd come back again and I'm glad I gave them another chance.

I drive by this place a lot and always think of coming here, so one day I did. 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.

Really, really good pizza. Would suggest stopping in if you're in LA or on a food trip, as we were…read more The sauce at this place is really good. 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.

A friend took me to Oste for a belated birthday dinner, and since it was my first time there, I was…read morecurious to see what all the buzz was about. 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.

I really enjoyed the Supreme, we didn't request for anything extra on top and was pleasantly surprised by the flavor. While it wasn't world-class and unique, it fell into the level of comfort and familiarity. If you're a huge fan of C*stco pizza and felt a bit heartbroken with the unrequited love for their supreme pizza, this is MUST try. 5/5 would get again! On the second round, we ordered Melrose. This one didn't impress us as much as the impact was weaker. Personally I added additional seasoning to bring more oomph to the pizza flavor, but this is one of those that you can't go wrong with a crowd and great for customizing. We look forward to trying the other flavors.

I wanna try the other types of pizza they have! The Service: Staff taking our order was very friendly and answered any questions we had. This is a counter restaurant so you would walk in and order at the counter and they would serve your food. 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.

The dough on both was seriously airy and light, with a great char on the crust from what's clearly a proper hot oven. The Bianca was my favorite -- fior di latte, basil, pecorino romano, and a touch of lemon that I wasn't expecting but really worked. It's a simple pizza but the lemon gives it a brightness you don't usually get on a white pie. The Funghi (shaved mushroom, garlic confit, thyme) was excellent too, earthy and savory without being heavy. Straightforward menu, solid execution, and clearly quality ingredients. Will be back to work through more of the pizze list.

Know seating is limited and on a first-come, first-served basis. This was the primary reason for my choosing PDP in the first place. I was hungry! I knew it, my stomach knew it. I needed something fast, and something that wouldn't require me to take a seat to consume. Hence, Patsy D'Amore's Pizza! This is some of the best pizza I have ever tried. I am truly shocked at the negative reviews, because I had a completely different experience. I love pizza and I think my tastebuds are more than qualified to be a judge of it. It's quality pie served at a conveniently fast pace. You'll receive your order, freshly made within 8minutes of paying for it. Wood fired pizza. I tried a second pizza location, in the same area within the hour and I can say with confidence that it's no competition! Patsy D'Amore's Pizza FTW (for the win)!!!

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.

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!

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!

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!
