Joshua Van DykJune 24, 2016Joshua Van Dyk thinks the Pizza is very yummy! Fair prices especially for Santa Monica. Good service and lots of extra seasonings you can add. Great for a quick bite to eat!- Great, thin crust pizza by the slice. The "white" pizza with spinach & ricotta is deelish. For the purists, the cheese pizza is damn good. Comparable to Village Pizza in H'wood & Mulberry in Bev Hills
Jinnie LOctober 2, 2014Yummy NY style pizza♡ nice n thin crust, decent price with fast service. try here when u visit santa monica ;)
Amazing pizza! Buy 1 slice at a time only because by the time the 2nd slice cools down its as hard as cardboard! Enjoy! :)
Tony LaiNovember 17, 2014White Pizza was my favorite, and you can't go wrong with plain cheese. The Garlic Knots were a little hard, though.
Jimmy Tee ShirtApril 29, 2013Killer, killer pizza near the cliffs of the pacific. Not much room to eat inside but with pizza this good who cares where you sit.
Joshua StainesNovember 11, 2010Closest you can get to an Italian style pizza, fresh buffalo mozzarella, thin base and crust, somewhere you would go for a bite to go rather than dinner.
Best pizza ever. I eat this pizza, I dream about it for weeks.
Jennifer PlopanApril 27, 2013My boyfriend is from New York and he says this is the best NY style pizza in LA.
neil patrick stewartNovember 10, 2010I used to go to joe's in NYC all the time. This is the same pizza. The same. Amazing New York pizza.
Michael DiscenzaJanuary 4, 2015The red pepper shaker flow was impeded. Gotta get that checked out....
Brought a co-worker of mine from New York who ended up praising the place and calling it the most authentic pizza he's had in LA.
Alec SteinfeldFebruary 1, 2020If you’ve had Joe’s in NYC, this is not the same place. Anyone with a sense of New York pizza will be disappointed. The food is bad.
Murat SSeptember 16, 2017The dough is hard, and not much pepperoni and cheese on it. Really bad pizza!
Stewart IrelMarch 15, 2010Grab a seat as soon as you get there - seating is very limited and the food is served quickly!
Aron HajdukOctober 14, 2010limiteds seats, excellent pizza...no more no less than a pizza place should be
its not very new york if you ask me- but its great. pizza is like sex.
Lisa M.April 16, 2012Don't order delivery! 2x pizza arrived 1+ hrs after ordered & cold! We just gave it 1 more try & pizza arrived within 30 min. but cheese was stuck to box lid! Never again!
Mike ASeptember 13, 2017Horrible place. Avoid at all costs. Staff is repugnant, and food is meh. Save your money and go elsewhere.
Dawn EldridgeAugust 29, 2011Not like ny......and way more expensive than nyc. $3.00 for a bottle of coke and $3.50 for a slice?

"The cheese pizza is just like a NY slice and highly recommended. The white pizza is for those who want a touch of sweetness in the slice but still good"
