Pizzeria Sei

That looks so perfect.

Pretty sure I had the same thing recently, if it’s the “off menu” margherita. Totally delicious

Is Sergio in the house tonight?

Do I have to ask for Savoy style or is it fine now just the way it is?

This is on top of my to do list. I believe this is the only place in the country to get it this style.

I’ve had pies by both Sergio and non Sergio and found them to be delicious.

What a flavor bomb. Definitely let it sit for 5 min or so. Super delicious tomatoes. I like the extra olive oil and salt. Just nicely balanced.

Did you ask for savoy style?

I sure did.

I also had the Diavola but didn’t like it as much. Next time I’ll get the marinara. With quality this high simple is better.

I noticed the salt punch on top of the pie and on the oven, the crust is twisted slightly, olive oil near the crust and then dabbed with a finger, the pie is placed pretty close to the fire, and I think it was around 1 minute of cooking time.

Insane how LA has probably the greatest variety of pizza in the country. Just about every style of pizza is here. I don’t think the east coast can talk shit anymore.

Also the server said the owner of Joe’s in NYC comes here often lol. BTW the only Joe’s is the one on Carmine in the Village.

Edit: there is a Joe’s in LA. He probably meant that Joes.

Didn’t even know you could ask for it savoy style. I will try next time.

Does that mean a more burnt crust and more salt on the crust?

welcome back!

is there anyone in la that can match top 1 percentile NYC slice super-consistently yet? NYC will never even consider ceding the title until that happens…

more oil, more salt. in the eyes of a picky eater, ‘big pool of oil, waaay too salty!’

Non Sergios are really dialed in now imo.

True.

What would be the top NYC pizza in LA right now?

I haven’t had Prime yet.
I like Pizza Wagon (LA) but not as good as what I had in NYC.

I agree with you on Pizza Wagon. For me, Danny Boys in DTLA for me. Superfine was also high up there, but the last slice I had from them was MEH. But it’s been well over a year. Danny Boys though has ALWAYS hit it. ALWAYS.

FWIW - Given how small and popular Sei is, I was really surprised how easy it was to grab fairly last minute reservations there.
