    Vegan deep dish
    Tiffanie T.

    This spot has some delicious deep dish vegan pizza! The saucy has a nice bite and they use some wonderful plant based cheese that melts on perfectly. It is a pretty penny but it's a treat so worth it. I added black olives, roasted garlic and red onion which is always my go to. It is perfect! Plus it is massive! You end up with a rectangle pizza with about 8 slices. The thing must have weighed 15 lbs too! My partner ordered and picked up so I can't say what it's like inside and what the service was like, but I bet it's worth it all!

    350 pm, Wednesday, August 20, 2025 I just snuck in to order the daily special (slice, salad, drink) for $10.99. First time here so might as well try the combo. I asked for the most popular slice (Grandma), a house salad with balsamic. The self serve fountain is around the back, lol. I've always wondered about this place. [[HIGHLIGHT]]I'm unsure if they have a full size dining room! Seems like a place that is mainly for take out but has 4 petite booths.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]I asked the head honcho for more info and he said there's an outdoor patio too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Ooh baby! That slice hit the spot! It was warmed up. I believe and still had a bit of crispiness on the crust. The house salad was great too with the balsamic dressing tossed together. Shoot, next time I'm here for a somewhat quick service at Electric Ave I am returning to Tomato Pie for the daily deal! It hit extra good cause I've been avoiding fast food for a long minute.

    We've been on a mission to find good pizza in LA and this one has been added to that list! I'd actually give it a 4.5. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Love the old school diner feel inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Not much seating but they have an outdoor area with a bunch of bunches as well.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff were really nice and gave us suggestions on what to try and the drink specials. We are the Traditional Cheese , Grandma , Really Really Funghi , Syracuse, Utica slices. They were all good but the Syracuse, Grandma, and Utica were the best and I highly recommend. We'll definitely be back.

    My sister was raving about this place, I actually had no intention of coming here today but saw it while driving and was like ooohhhhh Snappppp it's right there! And turned in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is small and cozy, parking lot is perfect size for the shop.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] When I went inside I was greeted right away. I ordered the Utica deep dish square and the fungi fungi slice. They heated it up perfectly and the Utica was super yummmmmy! Buttery and crispy crust and super flavorful. The fungi one was loaded with mushrooms and veggies and pesto that was super yummy too. Can't go wrong with anything you order everything looked bombbbbb! Make sure you give this place a try it's definitely worth it!

    This is probably my favorite pizza joint in the city if I'm being honest. I come here with my partner at least once a month to split a whole pizza to share. I usually get the Miss Green and he gets The Primo and boy let me tell you it always hits. They're very consistent here when we come to eat so I appreciate that very much. The crust is always crunchy and thin ( makes me think I'm not eating too much carbs, but I highly doubt it). When you order, you order in front where the cash register is and they will provide you a number so they know where to place your order if you're eating in. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The place is a casual spot to eat, nothing formal, but you get to have one of the best pizza's in the city.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]It may be hard to find because it's in the corner or a bending street.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The parking lot is small too, so if you can find street parking that's the way to go!

    Some people call me a space cowboy, some people call me a fat kid who loves pizza more than he loves cake. Tomato pie slings affordable, filling slices with unique, extremely vegetarian friendly flavors. My favs include: * Mr white - it's like Michael Jackson but you want it. If you love cheese and garlic, but want to go past the mozzarella, this one is for you. * blanco veggie - it's like the the mr white, but I want to pretend I care about fiber and my health. you're probably the person that considers the cilantro on a katsu sando as ruffage * miss green - you love pesto pasta, but wished it was a pizza * really really funghi - this guy is invited to every single rager I'm every throwing. hands down the best pizza they throw here. it's easier to catch a mew on the first try with a regular poke ball than find this behind the slice cage. I'm glad I make those big bucks now so that I can just buy an 18 inch instead of meal prepping for the week. p.s. did you know you can freeze pizza slices individually in foil and then air fry to crispy perfection at 400F for 6 mins in your air fryer. don't thank me, buy someone that needs it a slice and pay it forward.

    Garlic Knots: 1/5 Tomato Pie: 2/5 Bbq Chicken: 5/5 Employees: 5/5 [[HIGHLIGHT]]Clean: 5/5[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Parking: 5/5 16th of August 2025 Took so long for the garlic knots to come out and they were tasteless. The sauce was watery. The tomato pie pizza had cold sauce on it yet the crust was warm and delicious. The bbq chicken pizza was my favorite and very tasty.

    Fantastic slices of pizza! Reminded of a local shop in New York and gives a nice solid flavor with their sauce. Here in silver lake they sell by the slice and also whole pies. I prefer by the slice so I can try different styles . I got the pepperoni, Utica, and bbq chicken. Service was very friendly and gave some good suggestions so I decided to try all 3 slices. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance also was very chill and laidback.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They call your name once you order your pizza then go to the patio or back home to eat it.

    Welcome to Tomato Pie Pizza Joint.

    Generally, LA is not known for great pizza until now. Tomato Pie Pizza Joint (est 2006) is corner pizza joint that makes the perfect NY-Style pizza in Silverlake. They have two other locations: So.Pasadena and Woodland hills. As far as I can remember I have driven past by this place going to work for years. But today is the day I checked it out. I arrived as a first time customer. I was warmly greeted by Cesar, staff, at the counter. I told him that it was my first time at this joint and he explained to me the pizza slices they have. I perused their menu (pizza, pastas, subs, appetizers, salads) and decided to get a slice of Mr. White (Garlic olive oil, oregano, romano, ricotta, parmesan & mozzarella cheese), reg Cheese pizza and bottled water. He was kind enough to give a complimentary pizza The Grandma (crushed tomato, garlic, basil, light mozzarella & our original pecorino romano crust) pizza, as a first time customer. I was grateful! Pizza was flavorful and its crust was great. It's exactly the kind of NY style pizza taste that I'm accustomed growing up in NYC. Service was great. Staff were friendly. Atmosphere was relaxing. Their sleek interior 60's design definitely stands out compared to other pizza joint in LA. Prices seem fair. Overall, I loved every pizza moment. I highly recommend them.

    Garlic Knots with Pesto
    Elise B.

    I ordered to-go and the wait time was pretty quick. I ordered a half & half (grandma and florentine). The grandma was a great basic plain pizza, but the florentine surprised me in a good way. I loved the flavor of all the vegetables together and would definitely order entire pizza of this next time! And don't miss out on the garlic knots- they're great with the gooey melted cheese and pesto! There's a small parking lot otherwise it's street parking.

    Are there vegan pizzas here? I see vegan cheese but no mention of fully vegan pizzas.

    Yes.

    Does anyone know what their vegan cheese is made with?

    I believe they use Daiya Cheese. Their sauce is so delicious and you can get veggies if you don't like Daiya Cheese.

    Is the cheese cashew-based?

    No

Out server Emily was a delight. So friendly and accommodating (and thanks again for the Baklava!) We had the lamb shwarma plate and the fried chicken plate, both with hummus. Also a side of the Za'atar/sumac fries. Fries came out first PIPING hot, crispy, seasoned perfectly nom nom. The entrees quickly followed. The lamb was so tender and juicy and bursting with flavor. And the fried chicken was AMAZING. Shwarma that is breaded with an amazing mixture and fried. Genius! The plates also came with hummus topped with whole chickpeas (YUM), dilled rice, a cabbage salad and other greens, grilled pita bread, olives and my personal favorite, pickled radishes. Many reviews describe them as beets (which I also love) but these are radishes and they pair so well with the rich meat. An umami bomb! Portions HUGE (we have a full meal waiting in the fridge) and prices very reasonable. Patio is a very fun hang with pretty lights. My only knock is on the chairs which are not exactly "comfy." But that's a trivial issue. Service was attentive and staff so friendly and helpful. I can't remember Emily's colleague's name but shout out to her and her Rasputin's shirt (yay Berkeley vibes.) She was great. We will definitely be back at Dune soon!

Could be because it was Sunday and there was a Farmers Market nearby, but still something to consider. We ordered the Lamb Plate ($26). Portion was solid and the plate is actually pretty interesting -- lots of different sides (flatbread, greens, olives, pickled turnips, etc.), so it doesn't feel boring. That said, the lamb itself was just a few small pieces and it was ground. I would've preferred more actual meat Tried the rosemary lemonade too, but didn't really taste any rosemary. Just a regular lemonade, slightly sweet and sour. Also you pay upfront right after ordering. We sat outside on a small patio facing Glendale Blvd. It's a tight space, and at one point someone from the street was walking around nearby talking to themselves, which made the experience a bit less comfortable. Staff was friendly and service was quick though, no issues there. Also, no public restroom, so keep that in mind. Overall, not bad. I was hungry, so I finished everything pretty fast, but it didn't really stand out enough for me to make a special trip again.

This location on Wilshire Blvd in Koreatown is the smallest of the three I've visited, with under 10 seats available. It's a compact shop, and most customers opt for takeout. It's a narrow shop, and most customers take their orders to-go. I've previously enjoyed the La Paradiso and La Toscana, with the La Paradiso being my personal favorite. For our first visit with our son, we asked the staff for recommendations, and they suggested either the Venice Beach (Turkey) or the New Yorker (Roast Beef). The staff was incredibly generous, offering a roast beef sample, which our son loved! We also appreciated them providing ice and straws for our water. We ordered the New Yorker ($19.00) with roast beef, porcini cream, tomato, and arugula. The sandwich was thoughtfully cut in half, perfect for sharing. The schiacciata bread boasts a crispy exterior and a soft, chewy interior, which beautifully complements the meats and cheeses. We opted to substitute the porcini cream for mozzarella, which was sliced into perfect bite-sized pieces and tasted incredibly fresh. The roast beef was thinly sliced and tender, the tomatoes were fresh and sliced to perfection, and the arugula added a delightful peppery crunch. It's a well-balanced sandwich and one of the best in LA. We would definitely order it again. A big thank you to the female staff member who expertly cut the meat and offered samples, assisting us in making the perfect choice for my son's sandwich.
