The home of California pizza

Review Rating
The owner invented the barbecued chicken pizza as well as pioneering our local style of pizza. The pies here are always fresh and made to order. Excellent salads. They have Mexican Coca Cola too!

The Los Alamos of CA Pizza!

Review Rating
Caioti constantly stretches the envelope of pizza and has some amazing tastes to show for it. If you appreciate the California pizza, this is the one place in LA you must go to. Caioti is in a cozy nook of a restaurant on Tujunga. It is perfect for a lazy lunch or a date. The standout dishes are the BBQ chicken pizza and the 'the salad', which purports to help with childbirth. The only problem is parking, because this is a nice pedestrian-friendly neighborhood filled with shops and coffee houses.

Business Description

You’d think the thin crust pizzas from former Spago pizza chef Ed LaDou would be the main attraction here, but in fact the most popular item on the menu is sought after by pregnant mothers, not pizza connoisseurs. The Salad, or so-called “Maternity Salad,” purports to induce labor in those at or beyond their due dates, and Caioti Café has volumes of guest books filled with success stories to prove ... more

By the chef who created California pizza for Wolfgang Puck's Spago, this menu serves a full menu of innovative pizza, such as shrimp and goat cheese or lamb-sausage pizza with grilled eggplant, roasted garlic, and goat cheese.

All specialty pizzas include mozzarella in addition to any other cheese listed--but they don't all come with traditional sauce. Be sure to carefully read the description before ordering.

In Short Walls decorated with menus from now-defunct Angeleno eateries line the walls of this tiny restaurant. Outside, chatty locals and their dogs lounge at sidewalk tables. Chef-owner Ed LaDou made pizza an art form at Spago and California Pizza Kitchen and these pies also feature thin crusts and imaginative toppings--from barbecue chicken to grilled eggplant to oysters Rockefeller. As ... more

Parking was a little hard. We just parked on the side street, make sure to read the signs. Some places you cannot park after 9pm.

We went on a Friday night and the place was packed. We had to wait about 15 minutes before we could get a table. But the host/cashier was very nice and sat us as soon as he could.

The waiter told us about the specials the chef came up with for that night. Sounded ... more

Went to this restaurant based on all the positive recommendations made on the citysearch site and was very underwhelmed. We went early on a Friday evening and the restaurant wasnt very busy and only one person came in while we were there. Ordered the NY style pizza with italian sausage, tomatoes and olives and it was as bland as can be. Ive had better pizza from pizza hut and without the drive or ... more

the guy who owns this place basically invented CA-style pizza, but he doesn't get a lot of credit for it b/c the big man on the spago campus tends to take the credit (reference: your local super market freezer). i like this place b/c the prices are great, it's first come, first serve, free corkage and there's a mix of newfangled modern pies and old fashioned stuff (bone marrow pizza!). i'm not going ... more
