Pizza in Sherman Oaks? Pizzana. Card carrying member of their pizza-of-the-month club. The waitresses are always so friendly. The manager is great, she's been quick to step and is generous with her solution when there was a slight mix-up. How you handle stuff is what makes us come back! (That and the crust omggggggg.) read more

We arrived at Pizzana Sherman Oaks a little before they opened, and right from the start the hospitality was wonderful. The hostess graciously let us come in and sit early and even took care of us until our server arrived. Such a great first impression! Hubby started with the L'IPA Italian beer, delicious! It had a distinctly European flavor and was a great way to start the meal. We shared the Caesar salad, which I really enjoyed, especially the addition of the fried capers. Such a great touch! The croutons weren't quite as crispy as I would have liked, but they were still flavorful and the salad overall was excellent. Then, of course, the pizzas. We ordered the Margherita, which was 50% off for Happy Hour, and the Pepperoni. Both were fantastic. Great cheese pull, light and airy dough, and so much flavor without feeling heavy. Between the warm hospitality, great pizza, and Happy Hour deal, this was a terrific first visit. read more

Why PIZZANA? * Michelin Bib Gourmand Award * Signature "slow dough" Neo Neapolitan pizzas * Didnt know the couple behind Sprinkles Cupcakes backed this biz Would I come back? * No, gave this a second try again but it's just TOO SALTY for my pallet 3/5 Food - Caesar salad - nice, thick caesar dressing, but too salty - Cavoletto di Bruxelles - better than the caesar IMO , would get this again - Margherita and pepperoni, good but I think the sauce or something makes it way tooooooo salty - Tiramisu and Candace chocolate cake - delish 4/5 Service - Friendly and quick service from front of house to service 4/5 Parking - Street paid parking, can be difficult 4/5 Ambience - Clean tables and location, they are pretty packed when we came read more

Pizzana - CANDACES CHOCOLATE CAKE - Pizza Near Me - San Fernando Valley, California

It was my first time visiting Pizzana in Sherman Oaks! I stopped by later in the evening and was able to find street parking nearby. I placed my order through the app and received a text when my order was ready. The hostess asked for my name and brought out my pizza a couple of minutes later. it was a Thursday night and they were hosting an event so the restaurant was pretty busy. The inside is on the small side and they have a few tables outside. I ordered the Classic Pepperoni pizza and it was okay. It was on the colder side by the time I got it and was expecting more. They also offer gluten-free crust and have salads and pastas. read more

My partner and I wanted to try a new pizza place and we found Pizzana on Yelp! The restaurant wasn't busy when we got there but we sat inside to take in the ambiance of the restaurant and take our time looking over the menu. We decided to get a pasta plate and pizza to have good grounds on how the food taste without extra toppings. It was super yummy and the serving sizing was perfect we took leftovers home. Only downside is they ran out of burrata but I like knowing they will pull a pizza off the menu if they don't have the ingredients they can trust read more

Such a great experience at Pizzana! The staff is always incredibly friendly and welcoming, and you can really taste the quality and freshness of the ingredients in the food. Everything we tried was delicious, from the pizza to the appetizers. The ingredients are fresh, the flavors are well balanced, and the presentation is beautiful. One of my favorite things about this location is Bingo Night on Tuesdays! It makes dinner so much more fun and is perfect for bringing the kids, getting the family together, or just enjoying a fun night out. read more

My wife and I come to Pizzana in Sherman Oaks often, and we regularly order to-go from here as well. They are extremely consistent when it comes to their entrees, which is a big part of why this has become our go to spot whenever we are in the mood for pizza. The inside of the restaurant is quite nice too and has made for some really good date nights over the years. Some of my favorite pizzas are the Funghi, Cacio e Pepperoni, and Margherita. They also have great pasta and appetizers, so there is plenty to round out a meal beyond just the pizza. It has become our reliable, "you know exactly what you're getting" kind of place, and this location in particular is the one we find ourselves coming back to the most. All of our servers have been kind every time we visit. Solid spot for date night and consistently very good. We will definitely keep coming back. read more

Stopped here for a rest and a bite. Pizzas did not disappoint. Pepperoni pizza: 4 stars and yummy. Delicious pepperoni pizza with slightly charred, bubbly crust, the kind of pizza where the pepperoni edges are crispy and curled up from being roasted in the pizza oven. Crust is thin with just the right amount of chewiness. The pizza sauce is a little sweet, delicious flavor, bubbly cheese, and basil thrown in for good measure (see photo) Charlotte was my waitress tonight five star service all around very friendly and efficient fast friendly service. I recommend getting a seat on the patio for some good people watching. The pizza here is good. I look forward to my next visit at this location or West Hollywood. read more

This place is a neighborhood hang with lots of families with kiddos. Can get very busy around 5:00 pm with a wait time if you don't make a reservation. It's not very big inside and the acoustics can be a bit challenging if you have sensitive ears...I placed my pizza to-go so I got to do a little "people" watching while waiting. The hostess and servers never slowed down. The small outdoor patio in the front was packed as well. 20 minutes later my pizza was ready and I headed home. They are known for their sourdough pizza crust. My Margherita pizza was okay. It didn't blow my doors off. I would like to try their pasta dishes but thinking later in the evening would be better for me to come back to dine in...avoiding the noise, crowds and tired babes:) *Street parking only on Ventura Blvd and side streets (read the signs to avoid a ticket) ~ and that's all I have to say about that ~ read more

As a Sicilian-American, I'm incredibly picky about pizza. Pizzana is one of the very few places in Los Angeles that consistently lives up to the hype. The secret is the dough. Light, airy, flavorful, and somehow indulgent without leaving you feeling weighed down. Every pizza tastes thoughtfully crafted, with high-quality ingredients that let the flavors shine. Their signature slow-fermented dough has earned a devoted following for good reason. IT IS AWESOME. And for awesome you pay the price and shut your trap. This is a neighborhood place and I am thankful that it is not overrun with a fake crowd. But I feel like some of you are sleeping on this place. You travel all the way to Italy to take pasta and pizza classes and they do workshops here! The Cacio e Pepe pizza deserves its cult status, but honestly, I've never had a bad meal here. The service is always warm, the atmosphere is buzzing, and every time I leave I find myself planning what I'm ordering on my next visit. In a city full of pizza options, Pizzana remains one of the few that actually feels worth the calories. Sherman Oaks is lucky to have Pizzana right on Ventura Boulevard. And join the Cacio club and get a free pizza every month! read more

The pizza was delicious! Go and see it your self You wont regret or your family hhhhhhhhhjjj read more

I have given this place, so many tries. But I feel like either this location is not great or as the company has expanded overall, it's quality has gone down. Every single time I order from here the pizza comes out incredibly mushy and soft. It's like they're in a rush to get it done and the oven is too hot. It's soppy in the middle and charred on the outside. I live down the street, I've complained about this in the past. Hoping that the service would get better, but for the price I would honestly rather get any other pizza. read more

Meeting friends for a casual dinner and they recommended Pizzana. Located on the boulevard in Sherman Oaks, there is street parking only (another reviewer said there is a lot behind the restaurant. Not so). We did get a metered spot down the block good for 2 hours until 8 PM. The restaurant has 3 seating areas - a narrower room directly in line with the front door, a slightly larger room to the right, and a small patio in front right on Ventura Blvd. Shortly after we were seated, our server came by with a warm greeting and took time to explain some of the items on the menu. We opted to share several items. Cesare salad to start ($17). Very nice presentation and large enough for four of us to have a taste. Overall 4/5 rating for that dish. Then we got two appetizers - cavolfiore ($14) and polpette al forno ($18). The cavolfiore is panko coated cauliflower in a fairly spicy white sauce. Too hot for my wife and our friends so more for me. Tasty but not great (also 4/5). The polpette al forno is a dish with 3 small meatballs in a large amount of red sauce and 3 pieces of thick cut toasted bread on the side (good for dipping in to the left over red sauce). The red sauce dipped bread was the best part of this dish (overall 3/5). Three of us shared the Marguerite pizza ($23) and the mushroom pizza ($24). My buddy got the spaghetti al Pomodoro ($18). The mushroom pizza was good but too salty for my taste (3/5). The Margarita pizza was meh and also too salty (2/5). Service was fair. My friends had soft drink glasses that sat empty with refills offered only at the end of the meal. The water carafe also sat empty most of the evening with our glasses empty. My friends had asked for a spoon to help navigate the spaghetti. It never came. Difficult parking, mediocre food and service. Not coming back any time soon. read more

Food is always tasty. I've enjoyed the pizzas, appetizers, and desserts many times. The only frustrating thing was the price of our dessert today given how small it was. I've ordered the tiramisu before and that portion size was much bigger and easy for 2 to share. read more

Pizzana - TORTA AL LIMONE - Pizza Near Me - San Fernando Valley, California

Recommend making reservations on Resy, there seemed to be limited seating in the front that I could see. The interior is clean and very modern in the wallpaper and cute placemats. Service was good and we especially liked the tiered pizza table stackers! Highlights: - Corbarina Pizza - honestly the most delicious thing we got! The san Marzano tomatoes really make a difference. The squash blossoms are more for show as they don't change the flavor in my opinion. The tomato sauce was so tasty, burrata was slightly cool and melty on the top. - Carciofi arrostiti - my only complaint was the dish was a little small for $18, but the flavor was super lemony, toasty and fresh. Definitely will be coming back to Pizzana! read more

Pizzana - MARGHERITA PIZZA - Pizza Near Me - San Fernando Valley, California

Ottimo! This small place packs a punch. Cute and very authentically Italian - from the food, to the music to the coordinating colorful graphics on the wallpaper, placemats and artwork. Loved every item we had: carciofi arrostiti, pizza ai funghi and crespelle alla vodka. Normally I take photos but I was so into the food and the ambience I got carried away and just sat back and devoured it, enjoying every bite. The pizza is truly delicious - they have 'lunga levitazione' , which means the dough is allowed to rise for 48 hours which makes it much more digestible. Our server Charlotte was excellent and checked on us during our meal frequently. And a big thank you to Cameron who gifted us a pup pizza which our hounds enjoyed immensely. Will definitely be back with my son for a GF pizza. Grazie!!! read more

THE PADRINO. IS THE BOMB. I have been trying all of the IT sandwiches around town. And this one CONTENDS. Words escape me. The bread is chewy. Burnt. Thin enough. Just right. The fillings are FULL. Spicy. Tangy. Balanced. What a surprise. Who knew that a fabulous pizza maker would make one of the best sandos in the city? They drop only periodically. When they do, make sure to get one. I ordered mine 2 days in advance in case they ran out. CRAZY? NO. Absolutely worth it. read more

Loved it. Great salads. Amazing pizza. Nice staff. Nice room. No complaints. The coca de Pesci pizza the best

My boyfriend and I decided to check out this Pizzana location because we were craving some good Neapolitan style pizza. We had been to their silver lake location so we knew they had amazing pizzas. It was a beautiful night so we decided to sit outside. We ordered the caprese salad for our appetizer and two pizzas, the Cacio e Pepe and the Diavola. I think our waiter and the chef in the kitchen was having an off night because first we were brought the wrong appetizer and then the wrong pizza, and then were told that the chef burnt our pizza which is why it was taking so long to remake it. Our waiter all seemed all over the place and out of it. I imagine they were just having an off night. Thankfully the salad and pizzas we ate were fresh and delicious. I think they were just having an off night! read more

We've long been fans of Pizzana. We've eaten at multiple locations over the years, and the Sherman Oaks location is the one we visit most often because it's close to home. We even had Pizzana cater our daughter's first birthday. That's why I don't particularly enjoy writing this review. The good news is that this remains a lovely restaurant. It's one of the rare places that manages to be genuinely family-friendly without feeling like a family restaurant. The staff has always been warm and welcoming, and we've generally enjoyed our experiences here. Unfortunately, our last two visits have been disappointing for the same reason: the pizza simply hasn't been up to the standard we've come to expect from Pizzana. The ingredients still seem high quality, but both visits were marked by underbaked crusts and pizzas that arrived noticeably less than hot. In several cases, the cheese had already begun to congeal and firm up by the time the pizzas reached the table. The result was pizza that lacked the texture, warmth, and freshness we've come to expect from Pizzana. After the first experience, we assumed it was just an off night. When the same issues appeared again on our next visit, it started to feel more like a consistency problem. I genuinely hope this location gets back to the level we know Pizzana is capable of delivering because we've had some great meals. But after two disappointing visits in a row, we're likely to take a break for a while before giving it another try. read more

Parking was very easy with a lot behind it. The service was very fast and the staff was very friendly! I have only been to the Brentwood one but I love how they serve water and the water pitcher with ice!! I came in between 4-6 for their half off margheritas on weekdays! read more

Outstanding pizza!! I've been meaning to try this place for a while. Finally made it here and wow!! The quality is the pizza is amazing. You don't feel gross after eating it - just like in Italy. Tells me they use good fresh ingredients!! We also tried their award winning Caesar Salad and yes it's outstanding!! The service was great! People were nice. They even have an outdoor area for my little fur baby - and a dog pizza!! read more

I tried Pizzana for delivery once as they were close but not a walkable distance. I was delighted in the quality of the pizza I ordered and the Meatballs were very good. However, the next 2 times I ordered from here I was extremely disappointed. Neither order was accurate and one of them took a almost 2 hours to make it the short 5 minute drive for a simple pizza delivery. The last time I ordered from here my order was not only in accurate but entirely wrong to the point I felt the need to call and request that they correct their mistake or issue a refund and I would bring the food back to them. The restaurant absolutely refused both counts. Extremely bad service. While the pizza was good once their service and over priced menu have ensured I will never order from Pizzana again, it's not worth the price or hassle. read more

Wow!!! Wonderful experience at Pizzana in Sherman Oaks! Great pizza and salads! Service was very attentive and professional. We will return to sample more of their very extensive menu! read more

I used to love this place! But unfortunately they've fallen off the ladder quite far for me :( the Fennel on the bianca just felt like they didnt care at all, it was like 2 pieces per slices thickly cut and plopped on there. The Diavola is usually a go-to for me but it was overwhelmingly salty :( finally, the chili oil lacked significant flavor and spice. Maybe i came on a bad night, but reproducability is an important factor. These pizzas aren't cheap either. Hopefully they do a quality check soon and fix these issues. read more

Just ate Pizzana tonight while waiting for my dog at the vet. Long wait for mediocre pizza. Order a gluten free pepperoni pizza. The dough was tasteless and the pizza needed salt even though it was a pepperoni pizza. The pepperoni was burnt and I had to take most of the off. My family said the Margherita was ok. Very expensive for what it is. Super disappointing. The one waitress that seemed to be servicing the entire restaurant was super nice and the best part of the entire experience. read more

Pizzana - Gluten free PEPPERONI PIZZA - Pizza Near Me - San Fernando Valley, California

Waited over an hour for a table today. The food is genuinely good and the space is beautiful, so I really wanted to love this visit. What killed the experience was the lack of urgency from the staff. I counted five workers standing around chatting at the front while multiple tables sat dirty for a good 20 minutes each, food and dishes still on them, while people waited for seats. This restaurant could be making so much more money if the team moved with a little more purpose. Bussing tables faster and keeping the front of house focused would turn tables quicker and get waiting guests seated sooner. It's frustrating to see good food and a nice atmosphere undercut by service that just doesn't match the effort in the kitchen. I'd still consider going back for the food, but I'm hoping they tighten up the pace on busing and staff attentiveness. read more

Had take out the other night and was pleasantly surprised by Pizzana. I'm a sucker for breaded cauliflower and this version was really well done. It had great breading and the aioli dipping sauce really added a great touch. Cheese pizza was pretty good. I usually don't like crust, but this one was a really great consistency. I preferred the flavors of the cacio e Pepe pizza, but both were good even as leftovers! read more

I love the Brentwood location if Pizzana, so when I was given the choice to pick a location to meet up with friends for dinner in Sherman Oaks I wanted to check this location out. For a table of four, we ordered: -carciofi arrostiti - a delicious combo of artichoke hearts and baby artichokes tossed with pine nuts, parmigiano, lemon and olive oil -cavolfiore - tasty panko crusted cauliflower bites served with a Calabrian lemon aioli -polpette al forno - meatballs served bathing in a dish of a tomato-based sauce -cacio e pepe pizza - one of their signature pizzas, I always get this. It's rich and flavorful with fresh cracked pepper -funghi - mushroom stacked on cheese, yum!! For dessert, we had the tiramisu and panna cotta. Both were executed well and standard. Service was attentive and friendly. We never felt like we were waiting for anything and refills were timely. The food was on par with what I expect from Pizzana. One bonus about this location is that it doesn't seem to get as busy as Brentwood. We were able to get seating with a minimal wait. This might become my main Pizzana location whenever I'm visiting SoCal. read more

Never disappointed when I spend an evening at Pizzana. Our go to's are the Diavola pizza, burrata, crispy cauliflower, Cesar salad, and of course the aperol spritz. We always want to try new dishes but sometimes it so hard to not get dishes we know we love and crave. We did stop in last week for Valentine's dinner and tried their special heart shaped ravioli and new tiramisu. Everything was perfect and luckily not too busy early in the night. Service is usually pretty quick but sometimes it does feel like a very tight space on a busy night. Pizzana is a great spot with a growing menu, great atmosphere, friendly staff and top notch food. A must try and I will continue to come back for more. read more

This is my favorite place for delicious pizza and Caesar salad. I'd have to say it's the best Caesar I've ever had anywhere and its consistent!

PLUS, they have a "Cacio Club", where you get a free pizza once a month...WHAT??? read more

Can't go wrong with Pizzana. Chef Daniele never disappoints! We heard about a special this past Saturday - a Pizza dog - which is just what you think an Italian Sausage wrapped in Chef's famous pizza dough you could get it classic style or with bolognese chili on top. Of course we had to do it with the bolognese chili- this was fantastic though we would have loved a bit more chili, that was amazing! Since we knew we wanted the special we called ahead too see if it would still be available at dinner time and at this point in the day they were selling a lot of them so advised us to come earlier. If you see a special highly recommend calling first. Would have been so sad if we missed this. We also had the Crispy Artichokes - one of our favs, and always good. We tried a new to us pizza, the Corbarina Pizza with san marano dop, squash blossom, burrata, cherry tomato and gremolata. How have we never tried this before - this may possible be my new obsession. For dessert we had the dark chocolate olive oil cake. This was okay i think next time we'd explore something else. Beautiful night to sit outside on their patio, staff and waitress friendly and helpful. Metered street parking or if you park across the street on one of the side streets. read more

I have been here twice in the last month; once on a Tuesday night and on a Saturday. I tried various items on both occasions including appetizers, pizzas, salads and pasta. The food has consistently been delicious. My 4 star review is in regards to the staff. I feel they're really pushy to get you to order a cocktail before you even had a chance to review the menu; and then they loose interest. When I went on a Tuesday it wasn't very busy but I feel the wait staff could benefit from some better training. They lack attentiveness and follow through on both occasions. I found myself both times wondering, "is someone going to take our order or check in on us". Both times I asked for things and staff just forgot. While I was in the bathroom my husband was standing by the front waiting for me and the hostess asked "can I help you with anything?". He replied saying, "I'm just waiting for my wife", and only a minute later the same person looked at him and asked the same question. He told me, "wow it just seems like the staff is aloof". On the one occasion the restaurant was tremendously hot on one side. I asked, "can you turn up the A/C, it's really hot". They replied, "oh we'll see what we can do". After a few minutes and no response, I said, "can we just move to the other side away from the kitchen? It's a little cooler there". Again, no follow up or response. At the end of our meal someone in my party said, "It's unusually warm in here, do you think their A/C is working?" I told them I asked twice and felt ignored. The food was delicious and vibe of the place is fun. My recommendation would be for better training for the staff. I felt like they treated the restaurant more like a casual hangout to chat amongst themselves and could put better efforts into serving their in-house dining customers. read more

They have an amazing deal on a Pup Pizza, which is made with flour, pork, pumpkin, potato, and peanut butter. We just got home and my pup went crazy for it, eating the pork toppings first before gnawing at the delicious looking crust.
