    The best pizza i evet had. The toppings were generous. Price is competitive. The staff are friendly. The place is neat. The decor is modest. We will definitely come back. Highly recommended

    Excellent pizza place with reasonable price and good portion. The staff was kind and passionate in what he does. I ordered one 14" capricciosa pizza and one 14" Margherita pizza. Personally I like the rich creamy texture and mushroom toppings on the capricciosa (marinara, mozzarella, hams, mushroom, olives). Margherita pizza was better than some of the other pizza places I visited, but I wish the crust and dough could be a bit thinner, more cheese and wish there is fresh basil on the pizza. They have rewards program to earn points if ordering through their website. Added bonus if you are a regular!

    Ordered a medium supreme pizza and it was good! The crust was my favorite part. They are opened every day and also very late at night so a great place for late night pizza. They have parking in a small lot.

    I ordered from here to enjoy some food along with a movie. The movie was amazing, but the pizza was disappointing. We had spent some time looking for a new place to try since we were tired of ordering from the same spot. In hindsight, we should have stuck with our original choice, Forma, because their pizza is much tastier. Both the Hawaiian and the supreme pizzas lacked tomato sauce, which made them taste like dry bread with too much cheese. The cheese itself wasn't very good either and didn't taste fresh. The crust was thin, which I did like, but the supreme pizza was cut very unevenly and difficult to eat Overall, though, I probably won't order from here again.

    My coworkers ordered cheese pizza for our work party. It wasn't bad, to be honest. Would I go there for pizza on my own? Probably not, but I would eat it again if someone else was paying. My coworker called in the order, and the person on the phone was neither friendly nor helpful with recommendations. I had to deduct a star due to the poor customer service.

    I was working in the area and saw glowing reviews for SaMo pizza, but I think the reviews were for previous ownership? Some other reviewer said this place was sold and is under new ownership from an Indian gentlemen that was very nice and welcoming when I walked in. Now for the food review. I wanted to get pizza by the slice but saw the cabinet was limited to just cheese and pepperoni, so I decided to just order a 12" supreme pizza. The toppings were loaded up but I felt the pizza was a bit dry and lacking in some tomato sauce. The dough tasted a little bit on the sweeter side of things. Pizza was oddly cut into 4 slices that made for a giant slice and sort of difficult to eat. I would've cut this 12" into 6 slices! Damage was $23 for a 12" pizza and Mandarin Jarrito. Decor was very clean and modern. The new owner was very nice and professional but I ended up only enjoying one slice out of the whole pizza.

    I'm a NJ/NYC guy and this pizza holds up. I recommend! If it passes the east coast NY pizza test, you know it's worth it.

    Needed to feed my team and SAMO pizza fit the bill... I ordered a bunch of pizzas. Take a look at the pics. It was really good. Everyone was happy when I went to pick up the pizzas. Everything went without a hedge. The ambience was amazing. The place was clean. I will definitely go there again!

We landed on the back patio, which is the move -- string lights, trees, really cute. Your other options are a few tables out restaurant-side or a boxed-in area on the street side. Just know it's all outside, and even with heaters around it gets chilly at night. We came for the pizza and that's exactly where the focus should stay: * Cacio e pepe pizza: Surprisingly delicious. Not a 1-1 with the pasta you're familiar with, but still really good and worth ordering. * Diavola: Spicy and always my favorite. * Margherita: Classic and solid, always worth having. * Rigatoni with pink vodka sauce: Server's rec for most popular sauce, and it delivered. * Little gem salad: Super herbaceous and delicious. * Arancini: Skip it.

When he grabbed the device after we paid he said "sorry the service was so horrible that you couldn't tip" it caught us all off guard. I asked him to repeat himself and he said the same thing again. We told him we did tip. Like I said I was going to leave cash. He then started saying why was our service so horrible, and continued pressing us because we didn't tip. He had a horrible attitude, and shouldn't be questioning guest whether they're going to tip or not. Which we already had! We didn't leave the cash tip because of his horrible attitude.

They have a few seats outside for you to eat at, but I think most do pick-ups. Second, I am a fan of Neopolitan pizza, but my only gripe is about how floppy they can be and not holding the toppings very well. Fiorelli combines Neapolitan-style and New York pizza together, so you get the rich flavors and thin slices of the Neapolitan-style pizza, but without the sloppy flop. Each slice, despite being thin, has structure and crispiness to it, so each bite is surely heavenly. Their dough is also slow-fermented, so it has a pleasant flavor depth that is almost similar to sourdough, but not quite sour. I got the Pepperoni + Burrata + Hot Honey. They are generous in the amount of pepperoni they give. Each pepperoni was cooked to perfection - curled and slightly crispy along the edges while packed with the spicy pepperoni flavor. The burrata was creamy and savory. The hot honey added sweetness and pleasant heat. I liked that they serve the honey separately, so you have full control of how much honey you actually want to drizzle on your pizza. The pizza is topped off with fresh basil leaves, oregano, chili flakes and aged parmesan. Everything came together very well. Lastly, their pizzas are sized perfectly. Enough to share, but if you're super hungry or eating only 1 meal for the day, it's enough for an individual as well. Only thing is price is on the higher end, but given the location, the quality ingredients and house-made nature of their pizzas, I think it's worth it as a treat from time-to-time.

I love this restaurant for so many reasons. 1. The vision. Candace has created something that truly stands out. Her concept feels fresh and intentional, and she's incredibly transparent and receptive to feedback, which is surprisingly rare these days. Her recommendations have never steered me wrong, and I honestly can't think of a single disappointing bite from her thoughtfully curated menu. 2. The food. Whether you're ordering a pizza, one of the seasonal pastas, or the meatballs, come hungry. Everything arrives fresh, hot, and surprisingly quickly. My personal favorites are the Cacio e Pepe Pizza and the Meatballs, but I've yet to try something I wouldn't order again. 3. The service. Every server I've had has been fantastic. The staff is consistently knowledgeable, warm, attentive, and efficient. They genuinely seem to enjoy what they do, and it makes the entire experience even better. 4. The atmosphere. The restaurant somehow manages to feel both cozy and elevated, like you're gathering in a friend's beautifully designed home. It's intimate enough for a date night but still works perfectly for larger groups. Trivia nights are especially fun--they really create a sense of community, and the host's enthusiasm makes the whole experience even more memorable. Without a doubt, I'll be back very soon.

NOTE: This is one of a few So Cal locations. Same Ownership. So all the reviews might be for different locations. This pertains to the newer Sherman Oaks locale. This one does not live up to its other locations. This was our 3rd experience eating. There's always only ONE server for the entire one side of this restaurant. Which means of course longer wait times to getting anything - even getting a glass of water took 20 minutes. And this was in close to 100° weather. Each time we asked for something simple, we had to wait 10-20 minutes (and they neglected the things they should have included ...) when they brought out the pizza as our main course, they didn't clear are already empty salad plates, and didn't bother to bring clean ones, so we basically had to eat without clean plates. When we asked for fresh plates, our server said no problem, then immediately started taking orders at two other tables, there were no bus people around to ask for help, so we basically just went the whole meal without plates. And they never brought the ones we requested. When we were asked, "Would you like dessert?" The timing to get dessert menu was 15 MINUTES. For over $120 - this was the worst pizzeria experience we've had to date. NO PARKING options is another big problem - No Valet. No parking lot. You're on your own to find metered street parking and watch the time - you will get a ticket on Ventura. No side streets to park on at night - all permited. We hope more restaurants will care more if they charge these expensive prices - $120 for 2 people deserves far better experience and value. No one checked in on us during the mail to see if we were OK, the pizza arrived practically cold, jena stated did not have proper plates, when we need more napkins, there was no one around to ask, refills on water happened once in our two hours there, and the atmosphere is standard. Plenty of other Italian restaurants so far more flair, care, and quite honestly, better food for the value. Oh - and no coffee for your dessert. At an ITALIAN RESTAURANT. Yeah.. Highly recommend you use Yelp to find other pizzerias or Italian restaurants if you're craving and upscale, relaxed, enjoyable experience. Thank you.
