Pavich’s and Zelo ain’t cutting it either. BTW, I also wish this new place, if it materializes, would make something other than the thick-crust, deep-dish pie Chicago tourists yearn for — e.g., a stuffed pizza in... (35 replies, last updated by Robhungry1 November 22, 2009)

Dino’s is not bad. If you have the chance, try Zelo Pizzeria in Arcadia/Monrovia. If you like the lasagna pizza, Zelo's deep dish homeruns will impress, I believe. (5 replies, last updated by jackattack November 5, 2009)

I know that Pizzeria Uno used to exist in WeHo, but that was years ago (though if it’s still there, I’m heading over as soon as I get off from work). Any other suggestions for a good pizza (preferably in the SGV, but... (3 replies, last updated by RSMBob May 3, 2006)

I’ve got a limited amount of time left in LA and was hoping to hit the last few spots for good pizza. I’ll drive an hour from Hollywood if it’s worth it. Here’s the ones I’ve hit off the top of my... (12 replies, last updated by sloanedone April 6, 2007)

Closest to Chicago-style deep dish pizza a la Pizzeria Uno is probably ZELO in Arcadia. Crust is a crunchy and deep platform made from cornmeal, piled on with a good 1/2 inch of cheese, layers of meat (your choice) and tomatoes as... (15 replies, last updated by RSMBob March 12, 2006)

In L.A., I do tend to prefer Pizzeria Uno because it is the only crust (aside from Zelo's heartier cornmeal crust) that approaches Lou Malnatti’s crust. Even though I haven’t had Malnatti’s in quite a while, I... (10 replies, last updated by sirjear April 25, 2006)

Bollini’s is well worth a try. After all, the price really is not that unreasonable and for that price you will add to you food knowledge some good flavors. IMO Zelo’s is over priced and so ..... Bollini’s Pizzeria... (49 replies, last updated by mexcook4life September 17, 2009)

The usual consensus is Tony’s Little Italy in Placentia. People keep recommending Zelo's in Arcadia and it’s just not right... and definitely not like Zachery’s. Now, if only we had something like the Cheeseboard... (27 replies, last updated by monkey323 June 28, 2007)
