Sonny's is, without question, the best pizza in LA--if not the world??? Taste and consistency are both 15/10. LA has been struggling for a good, authentic NY pizza spot and this is FINALLY it. No notes. Would eat it every single day if I could. read more

Lives up to the hype. Loved every bite and am ready to go back for more. Just go and enjoy!

The cheesesteak here is truly delicious and a spot on Angelo's dupe...loved the bread and the mixture of meat, cheese, onion and pepper is perfect. Though I prefer Sonny's version, I do think the meat quality is better at Matu. Need to come back for the pizza! read more

Let's start with the facts that no they don't do slices yes you have to buy the whole pie and yes it is quite pricey BUT this is hands down the best NY style pizza in LA. My go to is the jalepeno pepperoni add burrata. Now. The cheesesteak. It is the best in all of LA period. Don't @ me yes it is better than Matu and cheaper and more meat ! I love this spot. I just wish they did do slices but maybe going forward that can happen *fingers crossed* read more

I've been wanting to try Sonny's cheesesteak and pizza forever, and they absolutely hit the spot. The cheesesteak was generously stuffed with meat like me in a weekend at WeHo. The glistening abundance of Cooper Sharp was extremely satisfying, and that house-made bread covered in toasted sesame seeds was perfect. We also tried the Upside Down pizza, which was great. Loved the flavor of the tomato sauce and pepperoni, and the crust was crispy with some serious structural integrity. Street parking was easy on a Sunday, although we got there right at noon. I'll be back 100%. read more

Glad we ordered in advance as this place was very busy and after trying their Philly Cheesesteak I can understand why. This was incredibly delicious with flavorful cheesy beef and a crunchy soft bread that had a great tasty crunch and sesame seeds. Then their pizzas are pretty large and tasty as well and watching them make the pizzas is watching a well olive oiled production line that produces delicious pizzas with incredible crust. My friend who owns two pizza chain restaurants said he'd love to get their dough recipe. As for pricing, it can be a little expensive but certainly worth it. read more

Sonny's - Cheesy pizza with beef pepperoni and jalapeños - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I'd like to compare this with Matu's cheesesteak. The bread was AMAZING--crispy and with sesame seeds. The ingredient ratio was perfect. The only downside was the gristle. Matu sandwich had some dried up meat on but this didn't. I prefer this sandwich too because the peppers were much smaller and the heat wasn't sharp. They didn't hit you over the head like Matu. Also this is a sandwich both large and rich enough to be shared. The pizza for me was a flop. Pretty generic and over salty with your standard dough. There are much better options in LA. read more

This review is specifically about the cheesesteak and the experience of the shop as I have not tried the pizza yet. From what I saw it looks fantastic though. I stopped in around 12:30PM on a Sunday. Walked in to about 20 other people waiting for their food. Just a bit more chaotic than it probably needed to be overall, but it's a pizza shop so it's understandable. The cheesesteak itself is probably the best rendition of a modern Philly cheesesteak I've had in LA. Meat is tender and well seasoned. Plenty of melted american cheese. The seeded roll was light, airy and one of the best I've had in my 18 years in LA. With all that said, I've got some constructive criticism. Number one is it's too small for $24. I was expecting a full size Philly cheesesteak for that price and was done each half in only a few bites. Second, I think they are using jalapeños instead of long hots on the sandwich. They're tasty, but not the flavor profile I was looking for. All in all, probably the best tasting cheesesteak in Los Angeles right now. I'd eat it any time it's offered to me, but at $24 for the small portion, it'll be more of a luxury item than a casual lunch type of thing for me. read more

Bottom-line: Sonny's makes a decent pizza, but at prices I submit are too steep comparable to alternatives such that I'd be hard pressed to order again unless I want to entertain some guests . Came here on two separate occasions . Ordered a pepperoni pizza and their decorated Philly cheese steak. Philly cheese steak: (26$ ànd some change in 2026) outrageous prices, but they give you a ton of meat -- ànd Wagyu at that. But the sandwich is mostly meat. The peppers/onions are scant , and the meat is slightly painted with a crust of cheese such that I'm tasting mostly meat. And that's it .... And for the price , I'd rather have a lot of meat than no meat, but when I think of the best example of the golden standard ; insofar as what makes a great Philly Cheesesteak, this doesn't exactly roll off my tongue first and foremost . The sesame roll I can also do without . It's a weird texture for a Philly Cheesesteak, and while not as tough as other sesame sandwich rolls, it's still noticeably harder than what I'm accustomed to. Dear all YouTube blog influencers: Stop it! This is not the best Philly cheesesteak you've ever had on your food sojourn . That's ridiculous .... Likr better than the best in Philadelphia ? Really? Pizza : definitely better than most of the Los Angeles , New York-style joints, but once again, you're paying an exuberant amount for what it is : bread and cheese.... Ànd some pepperoni. Pizza was mostly firm, had some flop, and was mostly charred in the right places . Certainly passed the smell test ànd had the aesthetics of à true contender . My ideal pizza though has some chew to it; I actually enjoy the more slightly doughy type of pizza with cheese on cheese .... Yeah , I know very anti-Portnoy whatever. All I all, nothing wrong here, but as the master pizza eater would say 'just not my style .' Counting for significant figures, going 7.3 here read more

Sonny's on Sunset Blvd towards West Hollywood is one of the newer pizza sensations to grace our fine city. I have yet to sit down with a whole pie here and give it its fair shake and will focus this review around the newest addition to their menu? A Wagyu beef cheesesteak with cooper's sharp cheese. Now, full disclosure, I've been a devotee of the cheesesteak sando at Matu in Beverly Hills. It was, as far as I have been able to find, the best in town and better than the one I had on a layover in the Philadelphia Airport ;~) I will say, however, that Matu, perhaps with all their recent expansion into neighborhoods like Brentwood and Pasadena? Has fallen off some. So that got me looking for a "new best" cheesesteak and, surprise surprise, I think I found it... The $24 brick of a thing I just picked up at Sonny's from the very cool co-owner Jordan, is beefy, perfectly chopped Wagyu streamlined through with evenly melted coopers sharp cheese and jalapeños that work their way into the flavor profile in various bites... it's a damn filling sandwich housed in a crunchy but miraculously soft bread coated in toasted sesame seeds that just add to the textures and flavor. From first bite to last, this is consistently delicious and the peppers have way less "bite" than the one at Matu. Paired w a blood orange soda by A'Siciliana, I'm in heaven as I chow the first half down in their minimally designed and overtly functional restaurant. Now the million dollar question: Is it better than Matu's? It's certainly more filling than what you get at Matu's now. That's for darned sure. Is it better than the one I fell in love with there when there was just the one Matu in Beverly Hills? I'd say it's every bit as good and certainly a better deal as I'm taking the other half home for later... yes, it's that filling. Kudos, Sonny's, you guys are knocking shit outta the park! PS I managed to get a slice of their regular cheese pizza w basil and OMG, this will be my new go-to for full pie pizza! Terrific crust, tangy and slightly sweet tomato sauce in the perfect amount, minimal cheese, just approaching char crust edges-- it's darned close to perfect also. read more

The cheesesteak is a skip here (not much cheese for some reason), but I enjoyed the pizza and it's definitely in my top five pizzas in LA. High quality ingredients, correct amount of pepperoni, not too overly chewy or salty. I also liked the basil on the side. Lots of metered street parking in the area, single bathroom inside with a code, and standing room only when dining in. Casual, but clean and good natural lighting inside. Service was quick, we ordered for pick up and it was ready at 12:30 on the dot. read more

Could have taken a better picture, but here we are. Best pizza in Los Angeles by a wide margin. Easy to order/ easy pickup/ easy to park too (Huge bonus). - The dough is the perfect texture. Very light and airy, but still with a good crisp. - Under carriage to die for. - The cheese is high quality and tastes great. - The sauce could have been a little more prominent, maybe a tad bit more of salt, but I'm really splitting hairs here. I'm from the east coast and have eaten at all the spots. Everywhere from Angelos to De Lucia's to John's of Bleecker. This pizza is the real deal. The only downside is that it's located on Sunset near Hollywood. So if you live on the westside/ South Bay/ Long Beach etc.... It'll take planning. 100% Worth the drive especially if you are craving a true east coast style pie. If I had to give it a rating, easy 8.6 read more

Sonny's - Jalapeño and Beef Pepperoni. - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The place might have been popular for their pizza, but it was their cheesesteaks that brought me there. Placing my online pre-order ahead to avoid the wait. With the extra service fee, it's more on the high-end of the price tag, especially it's not a sit-down dining experience. Nonetheless, when we got our hands on the cheesesteaks, we got the reason why, seeing how abundantly stuffed they were! Delectable peppery beef slices stuffed in crunchy sesame rolls. It's pretty spicy if your tolerance level was relatively low, but for us who loved spicy food, we're so delighted! In case you wonder if you could enjoy your meals on the spot, yes but they're standing tables only. read more

Battle of The Wagyu Beef sandwiches is done! Sonny's is by far the best tasting sandwich. The use of jalapenos instead of bell peppers is the best. This adds a kick that you never knew you needed. The portion and taste is better than most at the same price point. Restaurant was busy . Staff was friendly. Restroom and restaurant was very clean. read more

The pizza is SO good! I did a pickup order, so I can't really comment much on on the inside vibe is, but from what I saw, there are only a few seats, so I'd definitely consider getting it to-go. The worker was super sweet and had my order ready immediately I was in and out in less than a minute! Definitely recommend for a quick pickup and delicious pizza read more

Sonny's - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This was my first time trying Sonny's and I ordered on Uber Eats so I can't attest to the ambiance, but the service was pretty fast and the food was still warm! I got the new Wagyu cheesesteak. My favorite things about it was that it was pretty spicy because there's chopped jalapeños in there and I love spicy food so that was nice to have on the cheesecake! It was also decently cheesy which was nice! But I gave it 4 stars because I'm from the East Coast and it didn't quite hit like an East Coast cheesesteak, but it wasn't bad at all and worth trying if you enjoy wagyu! It was definitely filling though & I'd definitely go back to try their different pizzas etc read more

The jalapeño pizza was sooo yummy! Not great seating so by the time we got the pizza home it wasn't as warm as we'd hoped. But this is a solid take on a New Jersey slice. Crust was a littleeee burnt but the favor was wonderful and I'm def coming back! Note: cannot buy by the slice... it was about $40 for the pizza and we added burratta taking our total to closer to $50. 2 slices were plenty for moderately hungry humans but I can see 3 being a solid portion. read more

Starting off, nice spot. Very chill interior, lowly lit nice place to talk. Parking is bad per usual in la. Cashier was chill. As for the pizza itself, it was solid. It had great texture and crunch all around, very good ingredients as well. That being said, I think the sauce was prominent and stood out but the other ingredients were not as strong. I would have liked more cheese and I didn't really enjoy the pepperoni. They were flat and didn't add much flavor to the pizza as I would have hoped. Definitely not burnt but slightly over cooked as well. Burrata was a good touch, would have liked more for what we payed for. Solid taste was almost a 4, but giving a 3 because probably wouldn't go again compared to some other spots in the area in terms of taste. I also don't know another place that charges 18% for tax as well read more

I feel bad for anyone who didn't get that solid undercarriage on their pizza because my pepperoni jalapeño was fire. Sonny's was a little dark inside, but still a whole vibe, I was low-key ready to ask for the playlist because whoever had aux knew what they were doing. Not sure if the counters are meant for dining, but there's seating there, plus standing bar tables for anyone staying to eat. Back to my pepperoni jalapeño pizza! I loved it. The wait was a little longer than expected, but it gave me time to snag a hat for my husband, so no complaints. The crust was perfect, the flavor was on point, and that sprinkle of basil on top? Ughh I love basil (lol) so it was perfect. We love pizza, and this easily ranks up there with our favorites. read more

Sonny's - Got a Pepperoni Jalapeño Pizza & a Hat. - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I've been hearing a lot of buzz about Sonny's lately and finally had the chance to check it out. It did not disappoint! I walked in around lunchtime and was able to grab a seat at the counter definitely the best seat in the house. It was great watching them prep and fire the pizzas right in front of me. I ordered a pepperoni and jalapeño (held the hot honey since it's not my thing) and it was out of the oven in less than 20 minutes. First off, these pizzas are huge. The pepperoni was curled and charred perfectly, and the fresh jalapeños added a great kick. Oh and a side of fresh basil ties it all together. This is easily some of the best East Coast style pizza I've had in a long time. Well done, Sonny's. Do yourself a favor and grab a pie from here. You're welcome! read more

So I've had all the bomb spots in NYC and New Haven, this our bomb spot IN LA! If you're looking for a true rendition of some east coast pies this is the spot. No parking lots, and very little seating is the secret sauce to a good pizza in LA. I saw this place on IG and I let them do its thing onto convincing me that I should try this place and it was far from perfect. It's was and ima say it, possibly the best pizza I have ever had in Los Angeles. I won't name drop the other 1-2 contenders but this was God tier! There I said it. GOD TIER PIZZA! So just need to mention every eatery that is doing extremely well will have lines and lots of wait. So be patient. You will have your pie soon! Order online or in person but buyer beware! Expect to wait. Even though my pizza said it will be ready at 2:15 I didn't leave until about 3. Patience is a virtue. 35 bucks later and a pizza box the size of Texas had me on my way home to share with my wife and some family. The size of the slice is HUGE. Real east coast style pizza I tell ya! Good flavor, perfect ratio of cheese, pep, sauce and crust. Amazing pizza won't let you down the slightest bit. read more

Sonny's - Pepperoni Hot Honey Pizza - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Good flavor, the crust was a little chewy but that could be because we had it delivered and not fresh. Burrata was phenomenal and the highlight of the party. My pizza ranking: * pizzeria sei * pizzana * Roberta's * prince st pizza * Sonny's (toppings were more fresh than prince st but prince st had better dough and you eat way more dough per slice than toppings so prince st takes the cake) read more

Sonny's - Dough was sad. Toppings were ok , meets expectation . Burrata was super good - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

If you're chasing a true East Coast slice in LA, Sonny's Pizza is absolutely in that conversation and it's clear they take their shit seriously. Walking in, you immediately get that stripped-down, no-frills pizzeria vibe. It's not trying to be trendy or over-designe it's focused pretty small simple joint. You can tell the priority is the pizza, not the aesthetic or atmosphere. Let's start with what they do right, because there's a lot of it. The dough has that legit Jersey/New York backbone: thin, structured, and built for crackle. The sauce is bright and slightly tangy, not overly sweet, and it plays well with the cheese instead of overpowering it. It's not very pointy if that makes any sense, balanced but definitely could've use a bit more on my pepperoni pie. The cheese itself is pretty good melt, nice stretch, evenly laid. Toppings are handled with restraint and intention, whatever. They're good quality and that's what matters. Nothing feels sloppy or overdone in terms of quantity. Now here's where my experience slightly diverged from the hype. I know Sonny's leans into that crispy, no-flop undercarriage that's part of the appeal, their fucking selling point. But my pie came out a bit past that line. The bottom and edges had a noticeably darker char than expected borderline burnt in some spots. Not completely ruined, but enough to shift the flavor profile into a more bitter, overly toasted territory. It looked significantly different from the pizza some folks were eating in the bar and the table next to us. So idk dude. Not sure if I got what their exemplary perfect pizza is designed to be. Even after watching tons of videos on instagram and TikTok from people like jack dining room, how kev eats and 1 hour lunch break. To me it's clear there is a difference from what I ate to what's represented online and whatnot. Mine leaned heavier on the "well-done" side, which took away a bit of that ideal texture contrast. And even the cheese looked a bit different than what I saw advertised. Just by a bit but it was noticeable. The vibe overall is quick, efficient, and very East Coast.more "grab your slice and keep it moving" than a drawn-out dining experience. It gets busy, and you can see why. Lots of orders and people picking up. Bottom line: Sonny's is doing a lot right and absolutely deserves recognition for bringing legit East Coast-style pizza to LA. I just wish my particular pie had hit that sweet spot instead of drifting slightly into overcooked / lacking quality assurance territory Still one of the better slices in the city but definitely not the best. Still giving it a 5 because it tops anything you can get in shitty OC. At least we have Prince street and Slice House are here now and they execute what I'm basically looking for in pizza. Maybe I'm wrong though and it was standard. I guess we shall see on my next visit. Also deserves a 5 because it was still pretty damn tasty considering the circumstances and the potential for improvement is certainly there. Quality is quality, and they possess that and clearly they have a well defined style and concept. Thats the style I like. New York / New Jersey type shit. Look forward to coming back and ordering the plain and pepperoni jalapeño. read more

Whenever the hype proves real, it's such a good feeling. And the hype is surely real with Sonny's. When they first got going about six months ago, it was wild trying to get a pizza but that initial craze has subsided a bit and you can order a pizza online for pickup pretty easily now. It's absolutely expensive for their pizza's but it's also absolutely worth it. However the most important piece is you need to eat the pizza immediately. My mouth is watering just thinking about how great it was, but the leftovers were mid. They have a few standing tables or get to your cat & shove that thing in your mouth - eat that pizza fresh! It's actually a pretty life changing experience. You must add Mike's Hot Honey for $2 and the Burrata for $8 and your Pepperoni pizza is going to come out to $55 when all is said and done. They only do full pizzas rn - no slices - so get ready to devour greatness. Important to also note, these pizzas are HUGE! I could barely finish one piece and my male friend barely finished 2. Massive sizes so hearing zomg, fifty dollar pizzas may be jarring - but I thought the price was pretty on point for the quality, size and care put into it. This is thin crusts done right, very crispy with well done edges, with the sauce and cheese becoming one ingredient melded together in gooey happiness. The pepperoni was well spread out over the base in small disc protein form. The burrata comes packaged up separately which is so smart to not drench the pizza into soggy abyss. With the hot honey and burrata, the pepperoni pizza is truly perfection. This definitely IS the best new pizza around town. LA's Pizza Game is so strong! read more

Went with my son solely for the cheesesteak and 2 sodas. $60 later.... My take: Great tasting sandwich with just enough heat from the non-traditional jalapeños. Not too salty. Good sesame seeded bun that was hefty enough for the substantial amount of meat without being too hard to take a bite. My son's take: Not enough cheese. Either that or the flavor was masked by the jalapeños. He actually asked to leave them out, but we were told no modifications. For $24, I think you should be able to have your sandwich the way you prefer, but no dice so he picked them out as he was eating it. This is to-go kind of place--no tables to sit down. Saw lots of people leaving with pizzas, too. Overall, a good sandwich if you're willing to pay for it. read more

Sonny's been on my radar for some months now and I finally had the opportunity to try them. I was able to order online and schedule pick up which is very convenient! Orders are ready on time, at least mine was. Location is definitely a no frills pizza parlor with stand up tables and seats along the bar with an open kitchen style if you prefer to eat there. I ordered the pepperoni with the works - burrata cheese and hot honey. Honestly the pizza is very good, under carriage hold nicely and the pizza is crispy at the right places. But $50+ with tax and tip is a little overpriced for me. But overall, still good pizza and worth a try if it's been on your list to try! read more

Overall: Pizza is very nice and crisp, however, it is best enjoyed fresh otherwise it's not as good. It's definitely more on the expensive side. It was good to try and I may get it again if I am in the area but it's not worth driving out specifically just for this. The Service: Service is no frills counter. We ordered the pizza online for pick up. The downside is that if you have any issues with the order, there is no way to contact the restaurant. The people working the restaurant was nice though and recommended that we tried a slice before taking it home. They gave us some plates so we can try the pizza right then and there. The Food: We ordered the sausage and onion pizza for pick up. After arriving, we had to wait about 5-10 minutes additional time before pick up. We tried a slice right away and the pizza crust was nice and crisp. I felt like it was a bit saucy compared to some other pizzas I've had, but the crust was able to hold the sauce. Pizzas tasted really nicely seasoned with plenty of toppings. It was well balanced. Definitely tastes better when you eat right then and there versus when we brought it home to finish it up. Price: $35-$50 a pizza depending on which kind and which add ons you have. Definitely taste The Atmosphere: No frills spot with minimal seating. There's bar style seating where you can actual sit down and there are some tables where you can eat standing up. Not really a place to sit down and eat. It's more of a pick up and go place. Parking: Only street parking - we came at an off time and found parking at one of the side streets close by, but at peak hours, finding parking might be difficult. read more

Personally, I think Sonny's was worth the hype! I had seen this was a place to check out for some pizza and it truly didn't disappoint. We went safe, by just getting the cheese and jalapeño and I honestly thought of an actual New York slice pizza when it came to taste. You have to pre-order ahead, on their Instagram page they release the order link to pre-order Or you can just walk in after 1PM until they sell out . We went on a rainy day so parking in front of the business was just chaos, luckily we found parking on the side street and made our way to the location. We were told to pick up at 2:50pm but we still waited at least 20 minutes after because they were really busy. They were kind enough to give us small slices as we waited. There are tables inside, but not as many and on the side by where they're making the pizza you're able to sit on some bar chairs. People usually just come and pick up it seemed like. I'm definitely coming back again and trying their other options as it was really tasty! read more

Came to Sonny's a few months ago as I heard nothing be great things. At the time they were only allowing pickup during certain time slots, but still let us eat inside at the counter. As for the pizza let's get into it: We ordered the Pepperoni & Jalapeño Pizza w/ Hot Honey and man it did not disappoint. The jalapeño and hot honey gave it a nice savory taste and a little heat, but the best part about this pizza had to be the crust. Had the perfect amount of char/crisp, would highly recommend eating it right away or reheating once home. Ambiance wise they did a really good job with the branding both inside and out. Parking isn't the best but that's LA for ya. I hope in the future they add a few other topping options, but overall a great experience. Would I go again? Yes! read more

Sonny's - Pizza Near Me - Los Angeles, California

First and foremost, I ordered a pepperoni, jalapeño, and hot honey pizza online. When I arrived, it wasn't ready, and I still had to wait about 20 minutes for my order. They initially gave me the wrong pizza, which had pepperoni, a side of burrata, and basil. They eventually provided a side of jalapeños and hot honey, but since it wasn't cooked onto the pizza, it technically wasn't the same order. Aesthetically, at first glance, the pizza looked very good. However, when it came to taste, it fell short. While it wasn't bad, it lacked satisfaction. The flavors were muted, there was no boldness or sauce punch, and overall it was crispy but largely tasteless. Also the burrata was not good, tasted old. After finishing the pizza, we were still hungry and unsatisfied, so we ended up getting a cheeseburger elsewhere. It did not live up to the hype and was absolutely not worth the wait. The staff was also underwhelming, people were just "blah" and not particularly friendly. The place is cute inside, clean and simple. There's a small bar to wait for your pizza. I don't consider this a contender for true East Coast-style pizza. I wouldn't recommend it or return. There are far better pizza options in Los Angeles. read more

Sonny's Pizza is worth the hype . Super yummy, super crispy, and--most importantly--no flop. The crust has that perfect crunch with just enough chew, and the cheese-to-marinara ratio is spot on. Nothing overpowering, nothing dry. Just balanced, classic, and done right. The pepperoni jalapeño was the standout--salty, spicy, and insanely satisfying. Pro tip: get Rosy's oil with it. Game changer. Only minor notes: I wish they had basics like crushed red pepper and Parmesan available, and it would be amazing to see a vegan option. Even a tomato pie without cheese would be great, but it's not currently an option when ordering--even though it seems like an easy add. That said, the pizza itself is top-tier. I'll absolutely be back. read more

A solid pizza with good flavor and a crunchy crust that is not dry, with just the right amount of cheese and sauce. The jalapeños have a nice kick. I ordered ahead for a 3:15 pickup and received my pizza closer to 3:30 pm, but it was not a big deal since they were pretty busy. Street parking is available. There are some bar seats and a couple of standing tables, with minimal ambiance.
