I love pizza but have a hard time finding good pizza. I usually on a fri nite if I was alone at home just get pizza hut. That is how bad I am at knowing a good pizza place. But pizza hut is acceptable to my tastes.

I like the chain BJs I've always liked their deep dish pizzas.

i'm not a pizza expert (never lived in NY so i've never had real pizza in my life i guess).

but I enjoy Paisano's in Hermosa Beach. I went to Antica Pizerria in the marina which is supposed to be great neopolitan pizza but they severely undercooked mine.

Abbot Kinney Pizza in Venice Beach gets my vote.

I would have suggested Terroni, but looking at some of the reviews it seems that Angelenos are up in arms because Terroni doesn't cut their pizza into slices and refuses to give you ground parmigiana to put on your pizza.

Diner be warned.

Maybe it's the water that makes NYC pizza so good?

Good call. BJ's is pretty good comparative to what's available. I still haven't found a really good go to place for pizza in our neck of the woods.

For non-gourmet, regular old pizza, Pizza Buona in Echo Park is a nice under the radar choice.

My kids love Northwood Pizza in Irvine. http://www.northwoodpizza.com/

Call me a simpleton, but I really dig Papa Johns.

What you like in a pizza is as subjective as the burger subject. For the higher end "gourmet" style pizza, I like Mozza, but I have found the consistency of their crust to be inconsistent. Sometimes it's out of this world, but there have been occasions when it really was pretty bad.
