Pizzeria Mozza

Optimal Pizza

Review Rating
Typically, when LA restaurants are the best for a brief moment, you find that they are filled with snooty staff, bad attitude and OK food with a gimic. Instead, Pizzeria Mozza is quite simply some of the best pizza you will ever taste in LA with a superlative waitstaff and huge wine selection. It's that good. Problems: very large lines for walk-ins, even during dead hours. If not, you definitely need a reservation. Hint: show up between 2:30 and 4:30 PM. Additionally there is no nearby parking and LA just made all of the nearby meters one hour, so don't count on street parking. Be prepared to use the valet. However, the food is divine and worth it. I have had the mushroom and salami pizzas and they are both great; the salads are huge and the butterscotch budino dessert is worth killing for!

Great pizza

Review Rating
This place is almost impossible to get into without reservations. It's informal with great pizza, salads, appetizers and bruschetta. The caponata is lovely as is the chicken liver brsuchetta. The pizza crust is bubbly and crisp.

Nancy Silverton, Mario Batali and Joseph Bastianich meld their prodigious talents to bring Pizzeria Mozza and Osteria Mozza to the heart of Los Angeles. With the devout commitment to product, environment and hospitality, the two unique but equally engaging concepts provide dynamic templates for displaying the group's profound passions.

Business Description from the Web

You won’t find an osteria like this in Italy – it is truly an L.A. concoction. Owners Nancy Silverton, Mario Batali and Joe Bastianich (son of Lidia) are more aptly riffing on Italian cuisine, and put simply, it works.  The interior is all simplicity and clean lines, with dark wood and white marble accents. The restaurant’s raison d’etre is the striking mozzarella bar where you may catch... more

Best authentic Italian pizza to be found in LA.

Pizzeria Mozza isn't just a restaurant. It's an action film, a master class in the art of making pizza, a trip through Italy's wine regions and a magnet for a diverse crowd of hungry diners only Los Angeles could muster. It's the toughest reservation in town, maybe in the country right now, the place where everybody in the food world wants to eat. After months of buzz and speculation, Nancy... more

What to Drink

brought to you by

Citysearch

The giant Italian-only wine list offers over 1,200 bottles exhaustively covering every region of Italy (40 Amarone listings anyone?). Ten reds and five whites come in sharable 250 ml carafes; a 2004 Morellino di Scansano "Il Perazzi," La Mozza is especially pleasant with lighter fare. Corkage is $20 per 750 ml, with a two-bottle limit per table.

Editorial Reviews from the web

Mario Batali and Nancy Silverton's seriously hyped Melrose restaurant remains a foodie powerhouse with its clever mozzarella bar, exceedingly comprehensive wine list and succulent Italian cuisine.

Famous for its Batali-Silverton super-chef connection, this instant restaurant success remains one of L.A.'s most sought-after reservations. Right next door to sister eatery, Pizzeria Mozza, with window views looking out onto bustling Melrose Avenue, the high-ceilinged room is elegant in a modern way--think deep earth tones, leather banquettes and giant wooden wine racks. It's dominated by the... more

New York and L.A. superstar chefs bring artisanal pizza, regional Italian specialties and a selective Italian wine bar to Hollywood.

In Short Mario Batali (Babbo) and Nancy Silverton (Campanile, La Brea Bakery) are combining their love of authentic Italian food and artisanal breads to proffer what could be L.A.'s best pizza. The colorful restaurant welcomes business lunchers and late-night clubgoers with equal enthusiasm; the wine bar offers a selection of 50 Italian wines under $50. Menu items include crisp duck... more

Do believe the hype! Batali and Silverton join forces, importing water from 'back East,' to tackle the L.A. pizza deficit. While the often strange varieties of pie sometimes reach the sky, the non-slice dishes—eggplant caponata, melon n' mint shrimp—taste truly divine every time. Packed to the sunburnt walls with clout and patient foodies, dessert delivers an earth-shattering climax. Don't... more

As long as you phone ahead and speak to someone, you will get a reservation and believe me, there is no wait once you have one. You arrive, you sit, and like me you'd enjoy a glass of Prosecco and begin tasting what Mozza has to offer on the menu! My fav dish is the Burratta Caprese and the Pizza with Prosciutto! Try it.. you will LOVE everything! OH.. Don’t forget the Chop Salad!
