Pizzeria Sei

Inside a sparse Pico Boulevard pizzeria with limited seating, husband-and-wife duo William Joo and Jennifer So have one larger, quite lofty goal in mind: making the best pizza in Los Angeles. According to Joo, a veteran of Ronan and Pizzana, among other L.A. Italian spots, a Tokyo-style Neapolitan is the only best-in-town contender there is: a thin, blistered dough pie with highly pinched crusts, which results in an almost mochi-like consistency. The final product is simple, delicious and light. Is it the best pizza in town? It might very well be. While you’ll also find excellent salads and other small plates on Pizzeria Sei’s menu, the reason to make the drive here is the pizza, and plenty of people have already begun to figure it out. As of writing, this tiny, bootstrapped pizzeria is already selling out daily, so preorder if it's a weekday or make a reservation if you’re hoping to make a visit. Every other week, Joo has also begun running a highly sought-after $150 pizza omakase, if you'd like to try your luck snapping up a seat.
